    No problem. I'm only sure because I spent a few minutes yesterday trying to figure out how it transforms, which meant I was staring at both the cg at physical toy long enough to know they're definitely the same toy.

    To hack my own argument apart, I'd probably buy a combiner Bee if they did some evolution thing with it.
    All of them in the same aesthetic style as the rest of Generations but from various continuities. I'd hate myself for supporting a combiner Bumblebee because it is giving Hasbro the wrong idea, but make each limb homages to Bees that don't look too similar and they have a reluctant purchase. I say the torso is Goldbug, since I can justify him being huge better than vanilla Bee but that's just me.

    Titan Bee can go to hell though. I hope Hasbro doesn't prove me wrong on that for the sake of everyone.

    I didn't notice either, but now that I'm looking, he's very asymmetrical. His chest is different, his shoulders are different, his forearms are slightly different. I can't see his legs very well in this or the official images, but those could be too. I wonder if there's a reason why his details are so different on each side.

    Edit: Wow, even the concept art released a long time ago has the same asymmetric design, and no one ever noticed.

    RID news since it contains an in-package of RID Optimus Prime trailer.

    Probe is correct. What you saw at the Toy Fair (vehicle mode only) and what came via the official press release is the new mold Deluxe Class Bumblebee.

    If painted right, it'll be the best looking movie Deluxe Bumblebee we've gotten so far.

    I had noticed the shoulders being different and the left one homaging G1 Megs gun striker, but not the chest area differing. But its interesting seeing an uneven design more or less. I just wish the arm cannon was slightly bigger, but I'm hoping it expands out when he goes into battle.

    The forward section is fine. I'd just like it to have a little more extending past the elbow. Just my personal taste. Its still miles ahead movie 1&2 versions. I liked DOTM just wish he had the big arm cannon to make him asymmetrical from a distance. I wouldn't want to see it too big to where it looks cartoony. Kind of like the gun Gammora is wielding in the recent Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 trailer.

    For those of you who are still doubting the existence of Voyager Bumblebee and consider that a potential error on behalf of Amazon Spain, I got something. Nothing much, just more evidence.

    I found a bunch of listings for wave 1 and 2 toys on the Toys"R"Us UK website, and then I realized that they're using a very simple numerical system for their URLs sorted by assortments for their website.

    So, for example, the Voyager Class would start at TRUP2459650001, which is a blank listing, but in the header it says "Tf5 Premier Voyager Ast". So that listing is for the assortment in general. It works like this for every assortment.

    The next sequential number is TRUP2459650002, which is the listing for Optimus Prime.

    Next comes TRUP2459650003, aka Grimlock.

    Then comes TRUP2459650004, which is the the first wave 2 figure, Megatron.

    The second wave 2 figure, Autobot Hound, has a thus far still blank listing at TRUP2459650005, but again, if you check the header, it says "Tf5 Premier Voyager Ast Autobot Hound".

    Now comes the big one. TRUP2459650006 is also still a blank listing, but the header clearly says "Tf5 Premier Voyager Ast Bumblebee".

    Naturally, the next one, TRUP2459650007 is "Tf5 Premier Voyager Ast Scorn", the wave 3 figure shown at Toy Fair.

    (Right now this is where even TRU's "blank" listings end.)

    So does that mean the Voyager class nitro is fake or part of a subline ?

    Either there are more waves, or he is part of a subline.

    While Seibertron stupidly speculates whether Hasbro will re-release HFTD Deluxe Battle Blade Bumblebee and sell it under the Voyager price point (SERIOUSLY?), I can't help but wonder if there's an eleventh-hour "Bumblebee Prime" upgrade or something in the movie.

    I just had another insane thought.

    What if... Hot Rod is an upgraded Bumblebee?

    Hot Rod is "Bumblebee's brother in arms", but that could be a deception like how the 1986 Galvatron toy's bio pretended he was a different dude than Megatron.

    Just to be clear, the front page image is for fun. No indication (as of this moment) regarding the Voyager being WWII Bumblebee.

    Please don't eat me. :D
