ultiment bumblebee is on of toys r us top ten picks TRANSFORMERS(TM) Ultimate BUMBLEBEE(TM) from Hasbro®

Straight from the summer blockbuster TRANSFORMERS, Ultimate BUMBLEBEE races into action as one of the most realistic and technologically advanced TRANSFORMERS toys ever. The impressively styled Chevrolet Camaro Concept car changes into the beloved AUTOBOT hero, standing at 14-inches tall. BUMBLEBEE will "come to life" for kids with animatronic action in both vehicle and robot modes. Working headlights, battle sounds, and music, including Devo's "Whip It," all add to the interactive experience. 4 "AA" batteries required (included). Ages 5 and up.i wonder why

lol

it's worth it. It's so awesome. Forget the deluxe and scout class. The car is to scale with a GI Joe 3.75" figure. That's how big it is. I don't regret getting it - wanted it since comic-con but it sold out before sunday

Ultimate BB doesn't have a lot of articulation in the legs, but the arms are pretty sweet. For the average Transformers fan, Ultimate BB is probably a bit too much, but to the super TF freak, he is a must have. My only complaint with Ultimate BB is the fact that he tends to overplay Devo's "Whip It" almost to death instead of alternating between other phrases and sounds that he spits out. Oh, and he has a tendency to shoot his missile on a whim, but I find that more of a plus than a negative.

what about the voice

Voice isn't Movie accurate, but it suits him much better.
I know. I got him for my B-day.
You must have him.

i'm so glad i'm not the only one! "9 songs" my @$$

Um, he does nine, but some are in try me, some in robot, and some as a car. If you leave the car sit, you'll get it.

I'd consider myself a super TF freak (well, to a degree) but even I don't consider Ultimate Bumblebee to be a must have. I'm trying, I really am, but I just can't push myself to buy it at $80.00

I wasn't (and I'm still not) too keen on the idea of spending $150.00+ to get the whole Masterpiece Megatron...but you have to pay it to get it and he seems to be one of those must haves.

I might finally cave someday on Ultimate Bumblebee, but as of right now, ain't gonna happen.

Shouldn't this be on the Toy's Forum. Anyway Ultimate Bumblebee totally rocks. Going to be my favorite figure when it comes out from Lay Buy.

if you like the MP TFs, you'll definitely like ultimate BB. The price is higher b/c of the electronics and packaging most likely. Some of you may get lucky and be able to grab him on clearance for $50-60 or lower. I couldn't wait for that though - been wanting him since the end of july when i first saw him. I'm a diehard g1 fan too. I'm disappointed VW said no, but I really like the concept camaro & if you do a search you can find my LA premier pix of the camaro in person. 18' BB and the camaro on a pedestal - I'll try to find the link again
