    In robot mode an average Legion class toy is three inches tall, the alt mode's length depends on its proportion to robot mode. Bumblebee should be about half Optimus's height which it why I used Legion as a size example. The Legion size class lends itself to simple transformations. Does this help in any way?

    Sorry if this post came across as rude; I did not intend to be so.
    Anyway, I have some more information on the Legion class. Legion is the smallest size class in Cyberverse. I found one of my Legion Bumblebees, in 'bot mode it is exactly seven centimeters tall. Since in 'Bee's character model his hood/front end appears to form his chest, a possible transformation for the Bumblebee would likely be very familiar, chest flipping up for the vehicle's front end, arms folding up behind it to form the center of the car and the legs flipping up to make the majority of the bottom part of the mode, including its back "wheels". Since the alternate mode has been shown to hover in-game, I am not sure if wheels will be an issue. I am not sure how much articulation you would be capable of giving this small Bumblebee. Another thing to consider is that due to the small stature of the figure, 3mm peg holes in its hands and weapons with 3mm pegs would be most convenient, proportion wise.

    I suggest a Nancy - Transformers Wiki conversion/kit...it would include a new head...Junkion style melee weapon(s)...and maybe a new chest piece not to dis-similar to the chest upgrades/kits from the (MJ) from a few years back...not 100% that the chest idea would work...the figure the conversion/kit would be built for would be Prime: First Edition: NYCC Arcee... reasoning for suggestion of the conversion/kit would be that most CHUG or neo-G1 collectors were using the NYCC Arcee as a CHUG or neo-G1 Arcee...now that Hasbro/Takara have finally release a G1 Arcee the figure has no purpose in a lot of collections...similar color scheme and alt help in seeing this figure as Nancy...

    How about a Firestar (G1 - Transformers Wiki) conversion/kit...it would need a new head...maybe new weapon(s)...most definetly would need her signature chest wings even if part were to be glued on...would also suggest a load of Energon cubes...the figure the conversion/kit would be built for would be GDO Swerve...my reasoning for suggesting the conversion/kit is now that alot of folks have switched over to the legends Swerve in their collection this figure needs new purpose...similare alt and deco would also help this conversion/kit out...Generations Orion Pax would be a great base for a cybertronian look Firestar conversion/kit...
