The Energon Pub

I'm not at home right now but I just remembered that I have a model type Bumblebee that comes in tons of pieces. Best I can remember is that it's in a Black box and I believe it said HTM-01 on it. When completed he transforms into his Pre-Earth Cybertronian form.

Can anyone verfiy that this is it's name and how rare are they???

Also this Topic is accidently in the Transformers Movie Forum, where I got this answer.

And if you're planning on selling him...I'm interested

Interesting

I got it from BigBadToyStore a couple of years back but after I received it, I never heard anything about it. I figured it would be the start of a new line of toys or something. BigBadToyStore even removed the item from their website and they usually leave stuff on there long after they are sold out.

This sucker must be rare cuz I couldn't find any information anywhere and it wasn't on Ebay or Shoppertron. Any idea how many there are

Pictures would sure be nice.

since JD productions went under (as did their site) I can't say for certain but I can guess about 500-1000 maybe. If that even.
They are pretty rare nowadays.

Hmmmm....I contacted BigBadToyStore to see if they still had the pictures in their database. I'm waiting for a reply

Here are two pics of it!

Yeah but those look crappy. I've seen pics with better paint apps. and pics in his MTMTE Episode #1 Cybertron form

Okay....here are the pics of the box...and NO! I'm not gonna open it

JD productions is well known for having a bad reputation.

I just wanted to dig this topic out of the basement

Anyone else besides me have this and does anyone know the current value of him???

Why do I want to list him as "stinger"

DavidT wrote:Why do I want to list him as "stinger"

because of the obvious TM's I thought that this item was sold with the nickname "Stinger"

Well it looks like I'm gonna take my chances on Ebay with this. No seems to know too much or remember this. Probably list it tomorrow

I believe there's an image of an assembled HTM-01 Bumblebee on the Cyberfembot site.

It looks pretty good, though I'm not much into overpriced limited-availability garage kits with quality-control issues. Be good for display though.

Incidentally, I suspect Hasbro may be doing a figure of the Cybertronian saucer Bumblebee from TF:Animated.

Okay... It's on a 3 day auction now. My username is Davidalan26. Plus I have other auctions

Um, are we talking ebay here? I just had a look and there doesn't seem to be anything listed as for sale under that username at the moment.

oopsy


Looks a nice piece. I hope you manage to get a heft sum for him.

Ah, figured out the problem. I was going in through ebay UK, and our DavidT doesn't ship over here. Check your PMs for an offer sir.

Wow, that went for a good bit of cash. Congrats to whoever won that item...
