Thanks to a post over at Fuji's Ecological diary, we have our first in hand images of the upcoming Transformers Studio Series NEST Bumblebee. NEST Bumblebee is a repaint of the Bumblebee movie Jeep Bumblebee figure in NEST colors, homaging the NEST subline from the first movie that was primarily Cybertron era repaints. The figure comes in the standard NEST gray with translucent green, stark contrast to the original yellow. The figure also comes with the Sam figurine that originally came with the Revenge of the Fallen Bumblebee figure.

The history on this figure is a little convoluted, so it is uncertain where this figure was originally meant to come out, but it has been postulated that it was originally supposed to go to Universal Studios, much like the Universal Studios Megatron release. This figure is currently available to preorder and is expected to see its full release in April.

Check out some select images below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

I thought it was Sector 7 that appeared on all the Cybertron redecos...didn't NEST come after that?

Correct. NEST was from ROTF, and appeared again in DOTM and TF: The Ride.

The only thing that Nest Bumblebee does is make me want a new Hound!

Haha yeah that's what I recalled. Got a bit confused reading the article and thought I missed something!

The actual figure is more gunmetal than flat gray, nice. Glad I ordered him, he looks really good close up.

My bad, mixed them up, but it's fixed now.

I like how it looks, I'm excited to get him!

It's funny that we're getting a new-deco figure themed around NEST when that organization hasn't been around for over ten years (outside of TF: The Ride, the only thing still regularly promoting NEST as an Autobot ally), and when the last two linear movies (e.g. - AOE and TLK) were instead pushing government organizations that wanted the Autobots dead and gone (Cemetery Wind and the Transformers Reaction Force).

Even when counting the Bumblebee movie, that one went back to Sector Seven, who (because of the time period and the movie's very loose attempt to still somewhat foreshadow the first movie) needed to still view the Autobots with suspicion and distrust.

When looking at the bigger picture of all six movies, NEST is probably the best government organization to come out of the films, yet it died with DOTM (save for, again, TF: The Ride) and was replaced with anti-Autobot groups.

NEST Bee is pretty cool, that gunmetal looks nice.

Here's the ROTF Autobots we got last year, I really dig them!

Greetings Seibertronians!

Transformers Studio Series Core Class Shockwave (from the Bumblebee movie) has been on store shelves for a little while now. Maybe you've seen him and been undecided on picking it up, well if that's the case, these video reviews from some fellow Seibertronians!

First up is Ham-Man:

Next, we have Soundwave8084, who chimes in with his review of the tiny tactician.

Lastly, we have Chuckdawg1999, who offers his thoughts in writing and on video:

chuckdawg1999 wrote:The introduction of the Core Class to the Studio Series opens up the line to smaller-scale characters from the live-action movies like Wheelie and Brains. Of course, the first figure released is Shockwave. Don't forget, Core Class is also meant to be a cheaper price point to get named characters into people's hands. Shockwave is a cool figure, the transformation is fairly easy but as is the case when dealing with ball joints, the tightness of the joints can be a factor in how enjoyable the transformation is. Overall, Shockwave is a good figure and while I believe we will see a larger version at some point, this Core Class version can hold you over for the time being.

Do you have Shockwave? Has any of these reviews swayed you towards picking him up?

Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

The Studio Seires wave including 86 Perceptor, BB movie Brawn, BB movie Ratchet and BB movie Wheeljack has been found in the UK. It's technically wave 15 of Studio Series deluxes but Hasbro also sees it as 2022's first wave. The leader wave with 86 Stascream was also found. In other UK sightings news, the final wave of Kingdom voyagers, which includes Blaster, was also found. All these sightings were at various Smyths stores. These sightings were first reported here.

That Perceptor is purty. I'm undecided on Ratchet, leaning towards purchase.

So new Lego Rumors are saying that we will be getting a Optimus Prime set! It is said to come with a jetpack so fingers crossed it is a DotM version! It can also transform without being taken apart! If this rumor comes true, it is going to be epic and fulfill so many hopes and dreams of mine. Honestly, it could even be G1 and I would still buy it in a heartbeat.

I'm hopeful we'll see Ratchet, Brawn, and Wheeljack soon. I am excited to get those 3, specifically Brawn.

Entertainment Earth was sending some of them out already.

Chefatron put up reviews for Arcee and Ironhide

Re: New In-Hand Images - Transformers Studio Series NEST Bumblebee (2127874)

We now have in hand images of two of the upcoming deluxes in the second wave of 2022 deluxe toys for the Studio Series line, Bumblebee movie Arcee and Ironhide. These in hand images show us that the only thing new with Ironhide is the head, as assumed. We get nice close ups of Arcee as well and a good look at her back, which is a thing of concern to fans. These images are taken from reviews done by Chefatron.

Enjoy!

Is it just me or does anyone else find it disturbing that Ironhide looks like he's wearing hot pants and a man-kini over them?

Arcee looks great.

Is that the new super-duper premium finish Optimus Prime in that group shot? Arcee looks good but something looks off with dat face.
