There's a review of this figure on YouTube. As the guy is transforming it, the gun/blade plops out of the back end.

Lol it won't go all in one day, maybe it will last a few days to a week or so. Can't wait to get this toy...

[Decatron]

I can't even find the wave 1 Bumblebee and this ones out now? Frick

Lol, you said Frick, the old version bumblebee is really hard to find. I got one though. I like the 2008 one more though.

I have to keep it clean here.

Funny, because I'd settle for the '74 Bumblebee and just forget hunting down a '08 one.

This will probably answer most of the questions you have in mind about Bumblebee.

Picked up 08' Bumblebee today along with Arcee and man its awesome. It is probably my favorite in the entire movie line.

Grab him fast cause he will go very fast at his selling price.

lol if you dont find one between now and the the 1st official wave 2 rollout during the 4 weeks of august, I think he will be hard to find so good luck.

In the US, the movie has made these guys hard to stay stocked everywhere Ive checked, which was the reason for the heads up.

[scourge15]

Yes lucky my Target had two i was not expecting that. I brought him and Arcee so they have 1 left and a Dreadwing too. Get him when you see him they are selling like hotcakes foreal.

[softimus_prime]

i cant wait for this bb to arrive at my toy stores and i bet his gonna be the second "chase" figure beside barricade here

[i_amtrunks]

Very nice pics, lighting is excellent to see him in.

Your Bumblebee has the same issues with the yellow paint on the doors as mine does, must be a run-wide problem.

Not much but it does detract from the best figure of the movie line. I have had him for about a week now, cant stop messing around with him.
Be careful though, as the bonnet Automorph can slip, I had to coerce mine to get it back into the right position.

[massmachine]

None of the stores in my area have the new deluxe figures.I live in a town with one walmart, one target and one TRU.The only advantage is when they do come out im sure to get one.Not a whole lot of TF collectors in the area that i know of

[Sportimus Prime]

I tried again today. Still no Arcee, 08 BB, or Dreadwing anywhere.

[theprime]

i'm in melbourne, australia. is it our over here yet? how much does it go for?

[Autobobby1]

Well, I can't find any of these in Connexticut or in the NYC Times Square TRU. Damn. This figure looks awesome, though.

[MagnusPrimal]

I haven't seen this one yet. I didn't plan on buying more than two movie figures, but if I see him, maybe I'll up that to three.

[jaws]

I hope it hits NW Ohio soon because I need 3 of them (1 for me, 1 for each of my daughters). Figure kicks *ss!

[softimus_prime]

does this new 08 bb have hood automorph problems like the 74 bb?

[Agent 007]

Nope from what i've seen u just need to be careful pulling the hood down on the chest cause the arms might get in the way

[Sonic Wing]

yes i saw him in a transformers page and i think its not that cool but hey! its bumblebee!!!

[theprime]

i'm in melbourne, australia. is it our over here yet? how much does it go for?

finally someone answered my question! thanks bond, james bond

[Agent 007]

ur quite welcome

This thread actually helped me notice something - a flaw - about the '08 Deluxe Bumblebee...

Why does the Camaro mode have thick blue lines on the cracks used to transform?

After having my hands on three of the toys today, and having to return one for exchange because he was so crappy, I can indeed say his paint is somewhat poor. All 3 had the same paint problems, basically the paint on the clear blue door pieces sucks and doesn't run to the edges very well, leaving thick blue lines all around the door. Some better paint quality control would be good, but for a 9 dollar figure, I'm happy enough.

We're going to repaint one with some hobby paint and see how it looks.

Returned the one because it was an absolute joke. It's arm popped off no less then 3 times transforming it from car to bot and back, always the same arm. If you even tried to pose the arm, it just kinda fell out of its socket. Then the leg did the same thing twice and I said to hell with it, since it wouldn't even stand up on it's own from all the loose joints, including the waist joint. The new one was much much much better, and I just wonder why that other one was so troublesome.

[softimus_prime]

i bought 08 bb a while ago it didn't even hit the shelves due to reservations and the stock is not enough to supply those who got reservations lucky i got earlier...
