Two listings on Wal-Mart.com provide us with our first look at two new Bumper Battlers figures. Workzone Bulkhead and Stealth Ninja Jazz, who are repaints of Bumper Battlers Bulkhead and Jazz respectively. Click here to see Workzone Bulkhead and here to see Stealth Ninja Jazz, or just go ahead and view them here.

I know that these are marketed for kids and all, but "Stealth Ninja"?? He Has his name right there. Not very Stelthy.

As for Bulkhead, I actully kind of like that color on him.

Why bother repainting those?

Horrible. And who wants these to begin with? I walk into a store and Transformers are not being bought or even looked at much. It's time Hasbro understood their audience of children is no longer working and with the millions of older fans, it's time to step it up and change focus. But... they won't give up.

i dont think its that children no longer love transformers -it would be a tragedy if that were true- but that children always want to be treated like big kids and the most simple toys dont appeal to anyone.

If there's an audience for Bumpber Battlers, it's preschoolers with poor motor control that can't manage anything other than bashing two cars together. I really don't think they care about what the paint job looks like and whether it's "regular" Jazz or "stealth ninja" Jazz. The whole line seems poorly conceived.
