    Very true. Funny how figure scaling works.

    I was gonna say, I'm pretty sure this Bee is roughly in scale with their TLK Prime (pretty close to 1/18 scale, which is cool too).

    "We have the license for all of the movies, so we will eventually do more characters from the previous films".

    That is the best news yet.
    The big question is.... when?

    I'm not sure that's correct... In fact I know it's not even close to being in scale. Bee would have to be roughly twice the size he is in the pic to be in scale.

    I'm not one for scale debates so this is all I'll say on the matter, but based on what we've seen in trailers this version of Bee is super small. The Knight Prime design is around what, 28 feet tall? BB was able to stand at full height in a human garage. This sizing looks pretty good to my eyes.

    The new Bee does look a lot smaller than previous versions. Plus, the beetle alt-mode is about half the size of a camaro too.

    The scale question has already been answered: Optimus is Premium scale while Bumblebee is Deluxe scale; two different scales.

    The new film Bee is approx 11.6 feet tall, much much shorter than the previous film Bees that were between 15 and 18' depending on the movie. TLK Bee was 18'

    Oh, I'm going off TLK scaling where Bee was above Prime's waist line.

    So, you're saying that Shatter, Dropkick, & Blitzwing are coming? Great, I can't wait. Hopefully they're avaliable as DLX too.

    It would be really cool if they started pumping out the G1 characters from the trailer.

    Here are the images. He looks pretty cool but I wonder how much he will cost. Also, do his eyes look super dead because they're intended to light up? And on the plaque it says both "deluxe scale" and "non-scale"...
