If they keep going, they will make a 1:1 scale Bee toy!

I kinda want it. Unless they make one of another character, then I might get that instead.

If you're going to make a transforming car at that scale, should at least make it a convertible so that Barbie can finally get an upgrade from that POS pink plastic Malibu she's been driving for 30 years.

^This. Or Supreme Class Cheetor from Beast Machines, the expensive lesson that Hasbro has apparently learned NOTHING from.
It's an idiotic idea and a waste of plastic that's probably going to shelfwarm like crazy. Welp, here's hoping there aren't too many Leader-class figures in Siege, because unless this guy gets axed or made an HTS exclusive then a lot of us are never going to see them in stores because this piece of crap will be hogging their shelf spot.
For smeg's sake, Hasbro, when are you going to learn to stop making giant toys of the LITTLE yellow characters?! It was an enormous failure the first time you did it, and it hasn't gone too great the other times!

To be fair, they wouldn't have made it if they didn't think they could sell it.

So another 'Titan class' Bumblebee?

Why not? Contrary to the "titan" Dragonstorm, the previous big-ass Bee was CHEAP. That's why it did sell out pretty fast. At least over here.
Big Dragonstorm, however, is way too expensive for it's intended market so that's why it's still shelfwarming even to this day.This next Bee is sure to be at a low price point so it WILL sell out quickly.

Guys, that giant RID Bee did sell out. If it was a shelfwarmer, it would still be on shelves.
Re: New Giant Transformers Cyberverse Bumblebee Toy Revealed

Yup.
It's was no overpriced Dragonstorm.

As fast as the big RiD Bee moved at the Walmarts around here a couple years back once Thanksgiving hit, this is definitely one to just ignore and move on if it isn't for you. Let Hasbro get their money sometimes, it's fine.
Based on this one picture, I think this is just a retool of it.-Kanrabat- wrote:william-james88 wrote:Guys, that giant RID Bee did sell out. If it was a shelfwarmer, it would still be on shelves.

Yep.


Even the speaker is in the same place. They just changed out the chest/head area and repainted it. Car mode is probably identical.

Titans Return toys are shelfwarming, even at discounted retailers, so should Hasbro stop making generations toys?

Most shelf warming is done when there's bad distribution and/or too much of the same wave is ordered. Especially when there's repeats of the same toy in different waves.

Transformers Cyberverse is clearly not everyone's cup of tea, nor was it meant to be. One thing is undeniale though, it is bringing very niche characters to the forefront unlike ever before, case in point the large seeker cast which is also getting actual toys aimed at kids.
The case contents for wave 2 was revealed earlier this week and we do see some characters getting shortpacked. So for parents wanting to introduce these characters to their kids of have them as part of your collection, you know which one to be on the lookout.
Ultra Class (voyager size)
1x Shockwave
2x Bumblebee
1x Shadow Striker

Warrior Class (deluxe size)
3x Optimus Prime
2x Megatron
2x Windblade
1x Acid Storm

Scout Class (legends size)
2x Bumblebee
2x Windblade
3x Optimus Prime
1x Slipstream
