Thanks to eBay seller helltoy_39, we are getting our first look at a new Energon Bumblebee mini figure. This figure and its accessory is a clear blue colour and given the timing of this reveal and its packaging, chances are good it will be a promotional item at the upcoming New York Comic Con being held October 11th to 14th. The auction can be found here

Not fan of Bee but that Kreon is pretty neat looking. Would be cool if it were a NYCC exclusive, though I wish they did something like they had last year. Ah well.

Here's hoping this also pops up as a retail promo like Matrix Prime did.

Clear plastic + Toys that are already prone to stressmarks/cracks = Oh boy...

I'm a bit more inclined to consider this "Cloaking Cliffjumper" for some reason. Probably because I have Kreon Cliffjumper and have recently gotten Fall of Cybertron. I know translucent blue ≠ invisible, but it has that impression.
I wonder how easily available it will be. It's a fun figure (whether it's BB or CJ) but not one I'd go to any real length to get.

If my few Kreons are any judge, this guy's hands will snap in two the minute you try and get that blaster in there.

Whoever decided on the plastic type for Kreon hands did a terrible job, and I doubt using clear plastic will make it any better for this poor little exclusive.

At least his G1 and Prime counterparts won't get too many versions of the same toy like him, unlike the Movie and pathetic Animated counterparts, which they get too many toys!

Not a bad idea!

Free is free though. Lol. Of course we don't know what Hasbro is going to do with this little guy but last year they gave out the Matrix Optimus to anyone who came into their booth.

He's not a kreon I, personally, would pay for, but if they're going to be handing them out like last year I'm not going to complain. Lol.

I'd prefer Mirage to be a clear/white translucent plastic if he's done like that.

The fun thing about Kreons is that they are cute-ified versions of regular TFs. If they are a version of a thing that isn't even a thing to begin with...it's just too many levels of abstraction. Do not want.
