If you're still in the market for a Transformers DOTM Leader class Bumblebee here's a chance add him and Deluxe Starscream to your collection for one price. Junior of the Allspark found the bonus value set seen below at a Florida Wal-Mart, priced at $42.88.

I guess scale isn't a concern any more.





P.S.
Dear Hasbro/Takara, PLEASE STOP SHOVING BUMBLEBEE DOWN OUR THROATS AND GET TO DESIGNING THE LEADER MEGATRON I-WE WANT!

I think I'll keep my Leader class Starscream that my girlfriend got me and my battleblades deluxe Bumblebee. This is just a ridiculous conundrum of scale and importance. NO ONE CAN DEFEAT STARSCREAM! lmao

Stupid!
Bumblebee's way smaller then Starscream
a Leader autobot and a deluxe decepticon?
Why scream too it should be someone else also this will never come to my stores trust me i know none of the bonus pack figures ever come to my city unless it's exclusive.

I already saw this at Walmart in Sterling Virginia last weekend, but I didn't bother posting it since I figured we had all gotten about as many of the DOTM figures we needed from the previous coupons raids last week and such.

When I first saw it I got excited, until I realized they were both same figures that had been offered individually.

I didn't understand why Walmart chose these 2 figures for this set, and didn't even bother to get a repainted set out of the value package.

Can't wait to buy this on clearance.

if it DOES go on clearance, however, I might get it... sigh... I never got a leader bb, and it'd be nice since the movies kind of do focus around him, and a deluxe ss would be cool to just have around to play with, but I wouldn't spend more than 20 bucks on it.

good idea wrong figures, oh wait maybe not since both are shelf warmers. Great now there are going to be even more bumblebees on the shelves, damn you hasbro damn you to hell.

This Leader Bee sucks. Also, the jet pack/gun thing that comes with him is basically removable kibble. If you want a great Leader Bee, go with HFTD Battle Ops one. I have the gold Costco version and it is awesome. Cant stand movieverse Starscream either. G1 and TF Prime Scream FTW.

Scale has never been a concern for Hasbro, or me for that matter.

It never has been. Plus, Starscream actually shrinks in bot mode, even considering his shape is supposed to compensate for that.

This reminds me of that Deluxe BB/Legends Grindor from last year, with the scale being horridly off.

Well, things like this only seem to prove (to me at least) how bad DOTM sales are doing. Hasbro can't sell the toys normally so they try to make them seem "better" by adding more for less. Suppose on the money side it's good (barely), but if people wanted Starscream they have him by now :/

This is what, the second combo pack in the last two or three weeks? Coming after they made the coupons and then re-released them...

well, ya learn something everyday. saying Leader Bumblebee is the equivalent to saying Garbage.
Leader bumblebee=Garbage.

Terrible combination. Oh well, I already have Leader BB and have no interest in deluxe SS. The only thing good about this leader BB figure is that it has no stupid gimmicks on the figure. Too bad it has only one hand.

Glad i didn't pick up these too right away. Still where is HA Sideways with Alice?The Ha Decepticons are heavily outnumbered.Maybe this new Trilogy line will fix that.

only reason im getting him is because the completist in me needs to have at least one version of each leader from the movies

except for prime i love all 3 4 of mine

Hey i still need a DOTM Starscream... but i'm definitely not buying ldr BB just for that.

actually there selling really good. just leader bumblebee lol.

but yeah this is a dumb combo pack. at least make starscream and bumblebee a repaint or something

I'd love to see a leader bee with bonus value deluxe bee...
Knowing hasbro it wouldn't surprise me seeing as some idiot told them that the people want bumblebees.

Saw this set at Target last night too. Complete pass. Already have Ss. Maybe when hes on clearance I will buy another and paint it like Skywarp lol
