Classic Bee? And not the VW version?! Fantastic! Now let's hope we get OG trilogy Bee in either his TF1, ROTF, or DOTM designs (so fans that missed out on Battle Blade or DOTM can get an OG Bee). Also, is it me, or does he look taller than TLK?

Fellow Seibertronian Bacem has found the best images yet of a figure from the upcoming Studio Series line. These images are from 變形金剛玩具吧 and were shared on the TFCN Facebook page, and show a finished Studio Series Wave 1 Deluxe Bumblebee in his package. He sports the 70s’ Camaro alt mode and appears based off the recent Transformers: The Last Knight Deluxe Bumblebee figure we got (also shown below for comparison). With his Crowbar wave mate also reusing a mold from Transformers: The Last Knight (Berserker in the latter's case) this lets us know that we should be expecting a similar level of complexity and quality to the Transformers: The Last Knight toys in the Studio Series line.

In the back of the box we see the afore mentioned Crowbar along with Ratchet and Stinger. We also see how Bumblebee will look like posed in front of his included backdrop, which seems to feature a police chase. Hopefully, all these toys mentioned will be shown at the upcoming 2018 Toyfair.

Check the images below and let us know if you will be picking it up!





TLK Bumblebee

[Carnivius_Prime]

Feet have the yellow on them (i painted my TLK figure to have those, I also filled in the hollow inside bits with apoxie and painted over) and the wheels look painted in the pics on the back of the box though can't see on the toy itself from that angle.

The pics on the back are CG, I guess, like on all packagings nowadays.

Yes but they show the feet to have the yellow on which the figure can be seen to have (which TLK figure did not) so it's not impossible that the wheels have the painted look the packaging shows.

now that's a bee i'll pick up ! on another note, who is that red character at the bottom left on the back of the box? the red muscle car from the bee movie perhaps?

[Hydrargyrus]

the bee movie

NO!
I’m colorblind so I can’t answer your question.

[EvasionModeBumblebee]

Although it's probably the new VW mode Bumblebee (which I'm perfectly fine with), I'd really like to see a redo of the '76 Camaro Bee from the first movie, It's the only movie Bumblebee that I don't have a figure of.

YES!!!! That looks amazing, the paint apps look improved and they got the plasma cannon arm right!

EDIT: We can also see on the back of the box that deluxe Ratchet will come with his buzzsaw!

[DeathReviews]

Yeesh, I don't need any more brazza-frakkin Bayverse Bumblebee figures.....

[DMSL]

I have to admit when i am wrong and dangit i was. I was expecting these to be slight retools or repaints and nothing good, but this is a new figure and it looks AWESOME!

[Octobotimus]

Judging from leaks, this is one of the strykers, and on the back of the box the red guy is stinger. So this will be wave 1 with bee, stinger, crowbar, and ratchet.

One wonders why you stumble around here...

It's Stinger from AOE

[LevelRage]

Now this will be a figure I'll be picking up. Habe the original from the first movie (albeit in poor condition) and have always liked that look the best out of all his modes.

[Agent 53]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have the 2007 toyline's classic Bee but the automorph gimmick meant it never stayed tabbed

[-Kanrabat-]

That Bee look SOLID!

Oh, I really, really want this.

[Ig89ninja]

and here i was looking for TLK Bee to replace my broken one

...I may have to do with prosthetic bee until this comes out because this one looks AWESOME!

TLK Bumblebee

That looks nice, I passed on the original '76 Camaro Bumblebee from 2007, so I might get this new one. I haven't touched the Last Knight toyline at all, but the Studio Series line has got me interested in Movie toys again, so I think I'll try to catch up on TLK. My local branch of The Entertainer has the wave 2 Voyagers (or at least, they did have them when I was last there a week ago, I don't know if they'll still be there now).

[william-james88]

And 22 steps is a good sign that these will be more complex than TLK.

This toy is just a reshell of the TLK bee, so this instead confirms that these toys will be as complex. We now have 2 deluxe toys in this line which share a mold with TLK toys and in both cases its a bad sign towards quality, since that TLK bee and Berserker were far from stellar toys.

Anyone expecting more than TLK will be very dissapointed.

I'm just curious about the price point now

Probably the same thing as the TLK toys.

I just hope that the ankle issues will be fixed with this reshell. I skipped the new TLK Bee because I found his paint too drab and the overall shape too similar to the other Bees. But gimme a '70 Camaro with the TLK engeneering with fixed issues any days. Also, looking at the picture above, that Bee look more painted than the TLK one.

Same as the TLK toys, we know this from the Takara listings.

We are getting a new starscream, jazz, stinger, leader blackout, leader grimlock, ironhide, Rotf megatron, and brawl. I’d say there is nothing disappointing about that.

This line just keeps getting better and better!
