Hi, I'm new here, and I just bought these two new cyberverse stealth bumblebees, and one of them only said bumblebee on the packaging, I think it was just a factory error, but it's an interesting find.

Can you check the back of the packaging to see if it actually is Stealth Bumblebee's?

I'm asking to rule out the possibility of toy swapping, when someone buys a new toy, only to return it with a different. often older and/or inferior toy inside, or something else altogether.

O yeah, welcome to the boards. :)

no the backs and bios are exactly the same but one of them just says bumblebee instead of saying stealth bumblebee.

Awesome. I love misprints.

Btw man hit me up and I'll totally still send you a Lugnut if you want one. There are still quite a few here at my TJ Maxx.

This may be me guessing, but I think this has something do with Bolt Bumblebee only having "Bumblebee" on his packaging as well. Running change definitely, but why?

How many repaints of Cyberverse BB are there? All the ones I've seen are simply labeled "Bumblebee," though I've noticed a few different decos.

That's the best part: not all use the DotM Cyberverse mold, some actually use the RotF Legends one, retooled.

There were a couple of these in my local Tesco today, on Euro cards (obviously), but both bore the "Stealth" prefix.

No idea how long they've been there tho'.
