Video Review of Transformers Bumblebee Movie Target Exclusive Cassette Pack #JoinTheBuzz

Posted by Va'al Oct 3, 2018 at 2:19am CDT 21,067 views
Initially first seen at San Diego Comic Con 2018, which can check out in our gallery back here, one of the exclusives to accompany the release of Transformers Bumblebee Movie includes a number of cassette packs - the one we're reporting in the news today is the Bumblebee Cassette Pack exclusive to Target and Target.com, first found online at the retailer here!

Fellow Seibertronian TFA1024 has shared his video review of the set - which includes redecos of a Bumblebee Turbo Changer figure from The Last Knight and three cassettes which all use molds from the previous Titans Return line for Buzzsaw, Howlback, and Decepticon Frenzy - and we've embedded the clip below for all to see. Check it out, and let us know what you think in the Energon Pub!

As we continue from New York Comic Con 2018, and the special event organised by Hasbro Transformers that Seibertron and megatronus are attending, we have some more toys to show you all from the Transformers: Bumblebee Movie line - the toyline associated with the upcoming live action movie by Travis Knight.

The images mirrored below contain a second look at Shatter in her jet and muscle car mode, in a size class different than the Titan Changer, but also potential confirmation that Blitzwing is indeed a triple changer, as we see him in here in a Megatron-esque tank mode! Plus, some more Optimus Prime, because why not. Check out the images below!

I called it. That Optimus Prime is a repaint of the power plus figure without the engine. Blitzwing is the previously released Megatron with a new head. I doubt that's how it'll look in the movie.

Wow, the box art for what I'm guessing is Siege Megs looks awesome.

That optimus prime is correctly sold as a power series bumblebee classic camaro with mask and cannon is power series but with normal head and hands he is a power plus series

Here is hoping that Blitzwing toy means he will have a Tank mode in the film and did this one because they didnt have enough reference material at the time.

I don't usually go in for the gimmicky toys, but that Blitzwing actually looks pretty good (to me anyway).

While the majority of the Transformers sphere is abuzz (badumtiss) about the War for Cybertron reveals from New York Comic Con, it's worth noting there were Bumblebee toys on display, as well, including Movie Masterpiece VW Bumblebee, and a handful of smaller figures almost resembling one step changers. Included in this line up is Optimus Prime, Shatter in both her car and jet modes, and Blitzwing in his tank mode, for the first time! Check them all out below, with our images provided by our two reporters in the field! Stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest coming out of New York!

I think I'll have to get both of those Shatter toys if she doesn't make it to the SS line. And that Blitzwing didn't turn out too bad either

Hot on the trails of the reveals at New York Comic-Con 2018, by our very crew, we now have stock photos for the Bumblebee toys! These stock photos come from Hasbro's Facebook and Instagram. We get to see a better look at our retools Power Plus Shatter (revealed before, Dropkick retool), Power Optimus Prime (retool of Power Plus version}, Power Blitzwing (Megatron head retool), and new mold jet mode Shatter.

We also have a clear stock photo of Entertainment Earth exclusive Autobot Drfit with the Baby Dinobots, a redeco of The Last Knight Drift with new swords and the Baby Dinobots!

So triple changers now require two completely separate toys. Brilliant!

While there wasn't much in reveals for the Transformers Bumblebee toyline, we did get some rather interesting products. We get our first toy of Blitzwing which happens to be a tank and not a jet. It is a redeco of Megatron with a new head. We also get two toys of Shatter, one of her car mode and another of her jet mode. This is the first jet in the toyline. We also get Optimus who is surprisingly not a simple reaint of the Power Plus Optimus but actually a retool. The front of the cab and the robot mode head are an example of new parts. All these toys are part of the Power class which means they do not come with the energon igniter which is needed to make the gimmicks work and they were all on display at NYCC 2018. We have a gallery for these toys which also includes mroe shots of MPM Volkswagen Bumblebee, Entertainment Earth exclusive Drift (with mini dinobots), and the Bumblebee mask.

You can click on any image below to be brought to the full gallery of these Bumblebee toys.

I think it has to do with licensed vehicles being used. Rough example, if you were Ford would you want your car to change into a Chevy?

Interesting answer. That's probably why we haven't got a triplechanging AOE Drift yet. I agree with you that licensing could be an issue here, but would Dodge be willing to let their car turn into a jet too? Hmmm :-?
