New Ultimate Bumblebee Packaging
by Hotrod » Sun Sep 16, 2007 5:50 pm
Transformers Movie Ultimate Bumblebee has not been out too long, and it already appears that the figure will be getting another release with different packaging. Ebay seller home4toys has posted an auction that shows the new packaging. The seller even claims that this version of Ultimate Bumblebee comes with a bonus 3 inch Titanium Bumblebee. There is no word about where or when this version will be released. Stay tuned to the Seibertron.com Toy Section for more news as it comes available.

Interesting. I thought the other packaging was more elegant though.

Hopefully they'll be plentiful enough that I'll be able to snag one when I get my christmas bonus this year. I'm almost afraid that it's going to be the kiddy "must have" toy of the season, but with a near $100 price tag, I could see a lot of parents shunning it in favor of the deluxe concept camaro BB.

....you've got to be kidding me.
A repack already? The first run isn't even selling as it is!
Oh sure, some areas are seeing movement, but many others are seeing plenty of warmed shelves because of this guy.
I do believe we'll see a massive clearance on Ultimate Bumblebee. I'm patient enough that I can wait. If it never happens, oh well. I can live without him.
$80.00? No thank you. Even Robosapien does more, and he's $30.00 cheaper!

I'm glad I got the first release then, I much prefer the bright red box mine came in.
The 3 inch figure is a nice add in, even if it doesn't transform.

I'm gonna get the box version quick now. This figure isn't for opening, and I think the box will store better.
(yes I'll eventualy get a second to open. It's very rare that I get a bot to keep sealed before I get one to open)

You'd think Hasbro would wait a bit longer to rerelease it? Guess the upcoming holiday season changed their mind, and we all know how early shopping starts

For sure! This one emphasises his squatness and reminds me of those pickled toads in jars we used to have in science lab.

Yup. Costco packaging. Most definitely. This will be the cheaper price point one.

Longs for the days of G1 where we only had to worry about Megatron, Soundwave and Laserbeak wanting to be Autobots, Swoop calling himself Tracks and Slingshot calling himself Slingslot!

Are you 9 feet tall Elita?
My gf lugged him around for a bit after I bought him, and he came up past her knees!
Did some thinking about the packaging, and I really don't like it. Storing the Robovision Prime Octagon was a pain in the butt. The normal Ultimate Bumblebee Box when folded down does not fit in a 52 litre tub, so imagine how much room this would occupy.
