Video Review of Transformers Tribute Bumblebee 3 Pack

Talk about "double-dipping"...
.... Post a double post!

I felt kind of bummed out on the changes made to the set. TLK Bee would go well as an altmode display for his smokey gray windows, but only if there wouldn't be any feet issues with the retail one (which will forever have the cannon). While I like the look of the normal High Octane Bumblebee, I guess this one will have to do since I missed out on the AOE version. I think that there needs to be the paint apps like the Movie Advanced version to justify it being different enough. And as for the 07 Deluxe, I guess it's neat to have it for nostalgia sake (and for the vintage feel of the garage box set), but it looks off next to the other Deluxes at least in robot mode. The removal of paint apps like the scorches is kind of lame on Hasbro's part, and while I hated the black paint (and the head sculpt) of that Bumblebee, the silver paint doesn't do much favors in improving it either.

All in all, I'll still get the set, but not for the asking price that Hasbro would go for. If I get it at a discount (depends on where I get it), then I will pick it up.

I largely prefer this version than the anime acurrate one.
Because it's precisely anime accurate from an old anime without imagination and plain designs when they were not based on toys.

I'll get Potp prime, but for the combined form, not for Orion.


I even hesitate to wait in case there's a retool in the line with another design for the small figure.

This new set was discovered by fellow Seibertronian ScottyP! In this set you will find 3 different Bumblebee figures each representing a different stage of his 'evolution' throughout the live action films. This set is exclusive to Amazon.com and is selling for $59.99. We have posted images of the figures and their packaging so you can see for yourself which versions of Bumblebee there are.

The specs on Amazon's page tells us more:

Celebrate the heroic Autobot scout with the Bumblebee Evolution 3-Pack
2016 Chevrolet Camaro from Movie 5 converts in 17 steps
1977 Chevrolet Camaro from Movie 1 converts in 12 steps
1967 Chevrolet Camaro from Movie 4 converts in 18 steps
Includes 3 Transformers Deluxe Bumblebee figures, 5 accessories, 3 projectiles, and instructions.

If you find any cool new figures, please let us know!

No thanks the only one in here i'm into is the TLK one and i'll get him when he comes out here in AUS

I'm not hacked off about the price, just that they put the 1976 Chevy as a 1977.

When the hell is that TLK Bee gonna be here in UK? I'm getting really tired of waiting. Are those ebay listings based in Taiwan legit? Cos if so I might get Bee & Cogman together (when my income issues are sorted)

Greetings, fellow Seibertronians! While the Transformers Tribute line has not seen much action, well, ever (numbering a grand total of three releases so far), that doesn't mean it isn't still around!

For those not familiar with the line, it uses existing molds from different Transformers toylines, redecoed and/or lightly retooled into representations of movieverse characters. In the case of movie Optimus, the molds used were WFC Optimus and Titans Return Kup (with a new Titan Master and deco). In the case of the line's Bumblebee 3-pack, it took Bee's original 2007 Camaro toy, his Age of Extinction "High Octane" mold, and the super-scarce-at-retail The Last Knight Camaro mold, all slightly redecoed. The only other release so far was a deco of the 2007 movie Leader Optimus Prime mold.

While these were Amazon online exclusives, it seems that at least one of the sets is making its way to retail discount stores in the U.S., as well. While perusing the shelves at TJMaxx in West Bountiful, Utah, this evening, yours truly was slightly shocked to find two of the Bumblebee Evolution 3-packs on the shelf, and at a very low price of $19.99, or about the price of a single figure! Photo proof is included below.

Have you found any rarely or newly sighted figures that haven't been the subject of a news article? Please email us and let us know, and happy hunting!

Saw this set about a month ago already in Belgium and the Netherlands. Picked it up immediately of course.

Saw today in Peoria, Il. Agreed 2 per store. They also have (4) Titans Return Overlord
