Very nice Bee collection. :D

So are you going to collect all the molds of Bumblebee, or every single release(which would be extremely difficult what with his Movie popularity). What about minor varitions, i.g. Cannon Bumblebee, Movie Preview Bee, store exclusive repaints, etc.

Also, here's a pic of my own I made some years back, the Evolution of G1 Bee:

The pic predates Alternity, Universe 2.0 Legends, etc., all of which I don't have.

that photo looks very darwin!! are you a bb fan too? I will do my best to get every mould, for instance today i got a transmetal BB from hong kong and I got the BB macdonald set, I got it from a bloke in Canada, i had to buy the whole set just to get bumble bee... so you can guess I'm quite serious :), my problem is finding the classic legends BB, the car mode looks more like sunstreaker... its a naff bee but i Need him all the same. i found it on amazon but the shop doesn't deliver to my country :(.

Thanks for the photo comment! I was going for the whole Darwin angle.

As for being a Bee fan, it'd be hard to find anyone who isn't a Bee fan in some form or fashion. After all, he's a very likeable character. Then the movies came along, and made him a very cool character.

Overall, when I was younger I gravitated to him because he wasn't very powerful, but tried his best anyway. I always prefered characters or concepts like that. I'm also a fan of Krillen from DBZ, GM's from Gundam, McKell from Gundam 08th MS Team...and my mind is blanking on other examples, but you get the idea.

I've never seen that Bumblebee before (not that I've ever looked that hard mind you). I now know where they came up with the robot mode design for the ongoing series... :P

I can't believe there's no Beast Wars Bumblebee...maybe they couldn't think of a good alt mode for him? :P

I own that Gobot in the first picture, it was even yellow. So, I used to pretend it was Bumblebee when I played with my Transformers.

LOL, great stuff optimus convoy, I remember when I was a kid too with a red gobot car that changed similar to bugbyte (name escapes me now) I always felt short changed when playing with a gobot, they weren't as cool as TF, Now of coarse, because of there Crapness they actually have an air of uber Geekness to them. I acquired this TF wannabe in some sort of swap where no doubt my fellow man was given an array of starwars figure... You see, TF took over SW in my eyes, then.... M.A.S.K started to take over TF, I mean when you look at it MASK was Starwars & Transformers Mixed together - the MASK Figures were liken to SW and the Transforming Vehicles were liken to our beloved TF! ANYWAY that was going off on a tangent there! back to gobot Topic... back in 1986, it was the last day of school.. before the summer holiday break.... we were all going to leave the junior school that day and all move on up into our respective secondary schools, meaning this was the last day WE would see a percentage of each other! oh boo bloody hoo already. So I get playing with my Red GOBOT with a Kid who Had ASTROTRAIN TF, OMG, this was a triple changer, In good Nick.... We got talking and he seemed to like this gobot of mine, Was he retarded? Obviously, As he agreed To swap his Astrotrain for My gobot!!! LOL, and it was the last day so I thought YIPPEEEE to myself for his Mum couldn't come into school the next day to demand we swap back! I had such a little Value for this gobot that I imagined that his mum would do just that... Tell me off for swapping, as If she even cared anyway.. I Was 11 god dammit, gimmie a break! The boy seemed more chuffed than me! AND IF YOU LOOK AT IT LIKE THAT IT IS WORTH MORE TODAY THAN ASTROTRAIN LOL! HE GOT THE BETTER DEAL. so Mr optimus Convoy I commend you dear sir for keeping such a gem so long.... I didn't manage to keep my hand on a gobot for longer than a month!


All the best Dude

Well, Cheetor is kinda a replacement for BB. You gotta have at least one Yellow kid appeal character in every series.

I sat down and thought about Cheetor fellow TF fans, As it wasn't officially accommodated with BB I cannot justify a systematic hunt down of all his moulds, but because i feel he was conjured up as a beastwars equivalent to BB . So I feel his figure is at least worthy a cameo like the above Bugbyte!


So here we are my fellow TF friends..... Bumble bee riding bare back with cheetor!! lol
