I love this toy. He is really solid, accurate, fun, and spot on. He is so much fun to pose around and to play with, and the aesthetic is wonderful. This to me is the best of the best deluxe Bumblebees
Honestly, with all the advancements and improvements that have been made with the deluxe movie Bumblebee designs since TLK, and especially with this one (compressed chest, thinned shins, bulkier forearms, fender bit sticking out less from thigh, more angled wings, etc.), I think we're nearing perfection. The only major advancement to be made now is fixing how far the wheels stick out to the sides from the back.

I've always considered Battle Blade Bumblebee the one to beat, who do they scale (I recall BBB being almost voyager in size tho).

Honestly, comparing actual Movie Bee's model, the HFTD Battle Blade Bee, and the above new Studio Series Bee, I think we've completely surpassed Battle Blade in terms of accuracy.
In terms of scale, Studio Series is much smaller.

I agree, Sentinel and Skipjack will probably be the only new SS reveals at Toy Fair. The next wave of deluxes will likely be there too, though.

I'm hoping for the 4 voyagers and the next wave of deluxes past the Roadbuster wave. I would really hope to see the 3 wreckers together at Toy Fair too

Maybe we'll see Leadfoot, it's been a while since he was leaked.

Nemesis Primal wrote:Well let's consider last year: at this point we had Wave 1 released, and had seen the second Deluxe wave, Rampage, and Long Haul at either MCM London or something in Germany, I think. At this event, Hasbro displayed all of Waves 2 & 3 except maybe Rampage, plus Jetfire, DotM Megatron, Bonecrusher, and Jetfire combined with Prime.
So this year, Wave 1 is out, and we've seen the second Deluxe wave in a similar manner, plus Overload and Scrapper at Wonderfest and Skipjack in limb mode in an official Hasbro social media post telling people to check out the Wonderfest reveals of said figures. I think this is comparable enough that if Studio Series is only 3 waves again like last year, we're gonna see everything left in those waves again.
The only thing that really puts a wrench in the works is that last year, Hasbro had been much more liberal with it's WFC reveals before Toy Fair, so they just showed what was left to show of Wave 3 (since we saw at least Refraktor and Brunt way earlier), the fan vote guys, Thundercracker, Omega, and Jetfire. This year, we haven't even seen Wave 2 of Earthrise yet, so they may go nuts with WFC and show less SS stuff. Either way, we'll know in 2-3 days.

I'm hoping we see him, but I am more expecting him to be an individual reveal as a Target exclusive

Is it typical for exclusives to be revealed independently? Can't say I've ever paid much attention to that.

I think I remember reading this rumor and I'm definitely in for a better version of the RotF figure. I really like the SS DotM figure. I just placed it in the shrine and already missing it on my desk.

Ah you're so right! And here I was trying to figure out why Soundwave has a tie fighter window for a chest.Nemesis Primal wrote:Soundwave's solar panels/fins/whatever you want to call them remind me of Vector Prime.

Exclusive don't usually get revealed at Toy Fair, since it's still primarily an industry event for retailers and whatnot to see upcoming product and decide on, they don't usually show something off there if it's only coming to one retailer.
