    Coming in October, the listing is on EE's wholesale site.

    Transformers Studio Series Deluxe Bumblebee with G1 Tapes
    :

    Studio Series presents Vol. 2 of a sweet exclusive series. Packed with retro radness, this installment features a bodaciously Special Edition Bumblebee Gold VW Beetle figure and 2 dynamite dino-cassette figures, Zauru and Uriad (the evil twin of Dairu), remixed from an '80s Japan-only release. Retro Pop Highway - Vol. 2 is a celebration of the Bumblebee movie and the awesomeness of turning up the tunes as you're cruisin' in your righteous ride. Especially if that ride is a VW Beetle with special edition deco that converts from robot mode in 22 steps.

    "Perfect soundtrack for cruisin' down the open road in my VW Beetle" -Charlie, Human Ally Magazine

    "The movie-inspired details are exactly what I've been hunting for." –Dropkick, Rolling Decepticon

    "Cassettes don't actually play music" -Disclaimer Weekly

    Includes: Bumblebee figure, 7 accessories, 2 mini-cassette figures, and instructions.

    Any direct links to the actual product page? EE's site is getting hammered over their Funko exclusives right now.

    Not true at all, did you even look at the panel news?

    Says preorder is currently available, but there is no button to add to cart on his page, it is there on the www.entertainmentearth.com/sdcchasbro page but doesn't work.

    Yeah I can get to the countdown page, Bee looks like it should have already gone up for sale, but maybe they're waiting because the site is so unresponsive.

    It was up and sold out almost instantly. I had it adding to my cart when the site crashed and when it reloaded it was gone.

    Is it only exclusive to EE, or is it likely to be offered by any number of online retailers?

    Only to EE, but EE can sell it to other retailers, like they did with the Liokaiser boxset.

    EE is described as their "launch partner" so nothing indicating they won't show up elsewhere at a later date. Exclusive to them for now.

    Edit: Ninja'd!

    The Volume 2 set had an EE Exclusive call out graphic on it in the Hasbro SDCC slideshow. Volume 1, as far as we know, is exclusive to the Hasbro booth + HTS.


    Still getting 502'dddd.

    Aye, from what I gathered from twitter, it's the Funco Cult that's hammering the site.
