There are two giant Bumblebees... one high quality one pictured above in the news item icon. One really odd looking one that was used for BotCon 09. That one looked like a cast of the high quality Bumblebee.

EDIT: It looks like the nicer Bumblebee display is being shown in LA. No idea how many there are or if they sold the crummy one at the auction.
