I know there is the g1, the red g1 one, the golden g2, the movie concept, classic camaro, the FAB one, the classics one, the robot heroes one, the legends bumblebee, and is there anything else?

[Bed Bugs]

Aren't there 2 FAB's? 1 of classic camaro, 1 of concept?

Also need to include Robot Replicas Bumblebee, Lawson Exclusive Gold Bumblebee, Takara Bumblebee (with clear windows), Exclusive Movie Scene Bumblebee (with grey robot parts), Exclusive Movie Scene Bumblebee (with no legs being towed by Longarm), Bumblebee Unleashed (Statue), Cyber Stompin Bumblebee, Beatmix Bumblebee, Ultimate Bumblebee, Cybertron Legends Bumblebee (Hotshot repaint), Pretenders Bumblebee.

If I can think of more, I'll post them.

WE FORGOT THE BIG GUY ULTIMATE BUMBLEBEE! and the little one heroes of cybertron bumblebee, I was trying to start my collection of bumblebee, of course I'm not gonna buy that stuff like beatmix bumblebee and cybertron bumblebee etc.

[Bumbled]

I have almost all the Movie Bumblebee figures :p

[Auto Bot]

Who cares? As long as he flies!

[MegaDave]

G1 pretender bumblebee and actionmaster bumblebee seem to be missing from your list

Other than that id say G1 throttlebot Goldbug should count given that hes the same character

[DREWCIFER]

The G1 mould has many incarnations, see sig (I currently have seven).

G1 mould:
Yellow, red, yellow anime accurate face, white "Bugbite", Volks for Antex is Red and Orange, Volks for Estrela is yellow, silver, orange, and red. Also Black for the recent Keychain line, and Glyph, a Botcon exclusive, the first female version.

G2 mould:
Gold

That's all I know for that mould. However, I think there are some Mexican and French variants also.

[Auto Bot]

Looks like Bumblebee has the most variation of toys.

I think so also. Cliffjumper would be a close second, but there is no G2 version of him. However, there's a G2 version of Hubcap that looks like CJ, almost.

[Auto Bot]

Many of the CJ's are just straight repaint of BB. That's disappointing.

[DREWCIFER]

G1 CJ had a different mould.

These all look similar, however, are different:
BumbleBee, CliffJumper, Sedan/Bumblejumper/CliffBee, and Hubcap.

The arms all are the same as well as the undercarriage. However, all of the "bodies" are different.

BB is a Volkswagon Bug
CJ is a Porche 944 with a spoiler
BJ is a Toyota Famillia (I think)
HC is also a Porche 944 without a spoiler (I think)

And of course, all of the faces are different.

[Auto Bot]

Is Bumblejumper a cousin of Bumblebee and Cliffjumper?

Such a funny name.

[DREWCIFER]

It's a fan name.

In the microman line there was a robot that Hasbro didn't buy the rights to. However, Takara packaged it on Bumblebee cards as well as CLiffjumper cards.

Also, the South American companies were able to produce the character under the name "Sedan".

So since there is no original name for the character that was packaged with BB and CJ, it was given the fan name, "BumbleJumper", and some dude in Australia called it "CliffBee", and that one is used also.

In S. America, he's just "Sedan".

He's in my sig, 2nd row from Right, first back, Yellow with Black bumper.

That's why when I refer to him I say, Sedan/Bumblejumper/Cliffbee.

[Auto Bot]

So he's not official TF character?

...and I forgot.

There is a blue BB in the Diaclone line.

So yeah, I think BB is the most used mould, ever, for a Transfomer toy.

Takara should make a museum devoted entirely to that mould.
