Transformers Bumblebee Mission Vision Bumblebee and Shatter revealed

These would go great with Studio Series Dark of the Moon Megatron!

The Brantford, Ontario store didn't have that display (it's probably only in bigger stores), but they did have the Micro Master packs, as well as one lonely Lionizer.

i miss TRU
SO FRIGGIN MUCH!!!

I used to go twice a week.
On my regular hunts
and sometimes
just to watch people
and kids
at their absolute happiest.

gosh, i miss that.

After Hasbro made a surprise tweet revealing the existence of Nitro Series Dropkick and Blitzwing we now have a clearer look at the pair. Coming from regular breaking news source Snakas we get to see a better view of Blitzwing in package and Dropkick in what looks to be a series of stock photos. As with other Nitros they come with Energon cores to enhance their alt modes.

Articulation is pretty minimal like the rest of the line, but is that double elbows I see on Dropkick? Sure, it's all for the transformation, but take the extra range of motion where you can get it. I mean, Nitro Bumblebee doesn't even have elbows and it's his toy line!





So what do you think of Nitro Dropkick and Blitzwing? Sound off in the Energon Pub and keep coming back to Seibertron for all the latest Transformers news.

He's not a Triple Changer, just a Seeker who so happens to be a Seeker, I saw the film during the screenings on the 8'th so I can confirm this.

If there ends up being a Studio Series Blitzwing it's gonna be a normal Seeker, Bot to jet.

-Kanrabat- wrote:Whay that name tho? Like if Astrotrai was there but he could only transform into a space shuttle. Bee Blitzwing could have been called Ramjet and be a conehead or something.

Anyway, I call an easy Nitro Zeus repaint like they did for Thundercracker.

*Shrugs*

I presume a combination of things like trademark and a leftover for when this was still a prequel as a (Movie spoiler about character) Throwaway Decepticon featured in trailers to kill off, akin to Bonecrusher and Sideways

But honestly were gonna have to wait and see to learn why this particular character had that respective name.

If it makes you feel better his name isn't even mentioned in the movie. (Although it is in the credits)

For a recent major example, AoE Hound is obviously more a Bulkhead in terms of design. But Prime was already taking care of the Bulkhead trademark while in the meantime Hound was vulnerable.

I'm pretty sure despite the similarities that Hound was always meant to be called Hound since the name exited since at least the early days of AOE filming since it was the only name announced at the time (We didn't know who Drift and Crosshairs were for sure heck when we first heard their names Crosshairs was still going by "Slingshot") and the only name of the 3 new Autobots said multiple times and the only one who's name was said by humans (Crosshairs only had one name call from Drift and voice acting is usually done at a later stage then the filming for the most part)

Just a personal theory of mine, not a true fact or anything.

That make total sense. And the fact that Blitzwing's name is mentioned only in the credits and on the toy box is a nice compromise.

Liking the dropkick figure, which has to be my first for the non studio series Bumblebee toys-kind of feels Battletrapish.

I would like to have audio commentary on bumblebee I don’t recall audio commentary on any of Bay movies unless I passed over them in extra content menu bltizwing own figure will be nice to see in voyager and deluxe class which ever class they decide make him in

Am I crazy or does this figure look better than the studio series one?



At least in bot mode.
