Posted as a rumor.

Prove it wrong, or don't.

Get to work fans.

No, you have it backwards. It's up to the rumor-poster to prove it RIGHT. Until then, it's presumed false.

Damn slow internet just a second too slow!


I don't know what it is, it looks like it has elements from both the deluxe and Human Alliance figures with a bit of unique stuff in it, odd indeed.

Looks too much like a digitally edited and/or kitbashed HABB to me. Too many similarities. Also, if this were real, surely the first pic we see would be a grey prototype.

I call shinanigans.

Yea, well s250 gets a good amount of leadway. When you've brought back as many new pics as he has then you too get a presumption of correctness.

Edit: for the record, it does look shopped, but that doesn't necessarily discount the rumor.

If it turns out to be true, DO. NOT. WANT.

Doubtful with BB already getting about 6-7 deluxe releases, a HA release, and two supreme releases. However, could happen for TF3.

ANd now...the 488th Bumblebee mold from the movie line!

I think that's a custom job. Hasbro's leader class figs usually have only one color of blinking light. This one looks to have two. I just don't see it...if anything the next Leader mold should be an American version of Buster Prime.

It looks an awful lot like Ultimate Bumblebee.

It looks like a digital mock up where they take pictures of various toys or modes and assemble them prior to the engineering.

Looks faked, and even if it's true, there's too many Bumblebees already. And I didn't even get any of the ROTF deluxes.

Pass.

I'd bet there's a whole division of Hasbro designers that live only to make another yellow butterfly every two months... For Primus' sake I hope Megatron will shoot Bee to pieces in TF3.

Its a fake, a clear mash up of human alliance bumblebee and ultimate bumblebee. Even I don't believe that Hasbro would be as stupid as to release another new Bumblebee mold in the same line. There are already 3.

Head and upper body from HA Bumblebee with extra gatling shoulder gun,
Arms from Deluxe Cannon BB
cannon arm from deluxe preview Bumblebee
belly and upper legs from deluxe BB
lower legs from Ultimate BB with new feet? 8-}

If it is true, I just saved myself 50 bucks.

I really hope this is fake, cause I dont think i can deal with another BB from Hasbro!!!

I call 'shop job. There's too many parts in there that look an awful lot like other BB molds. And it just doesn't look right, as if someone copied and pasted a whole bunch of things into one image. On top of that, Hasbro normally also use characters that make sense for the Leader size class. Bumblebee does not. At all.
