    I'm starting to think this as well, given the combination of the recent press release plus the fact that, except for the more blatant wheel-biceps and the permanent face-mask (and those could be chalked up to a "Cybertron Mode"), there's really nothing distinguishing this Bumblebee from Movie Bumbles beyond the simplified styling.

    BB looks like a blend of movieverse and Animated. I can't shake the idea his head is 50-50 animated-movie... ok, it's animated BB cosplaying his movie counterpart, not so bad. I'll just wait for something more before judging, since I treated the first clone wars series horrible in the previews and then loving it after chapter 1

    yeah, i know that BB is important to the plot an all, but the show is called, "TRANSFORMERS PRIME," not TRANSFORMERS BUMBLEBEE. i want to see what Optimus Prime looks like and what other characters will be in show!

    Ya know, I take back what I said about being disappointed that they are movie-like. That design is awesome.

    I dunno if there's a word for it... Western simplified, perhaps?

    Uh, maybe because the pre-judgers were right, and Animated was awful?

    I find it interesting that the wall mural seems to be to scale.

    All in all, it's what I expected it to look like. I'm more interested in that Snake Eyes reveal. First I've seen anything of a new Joe show.

    The involvement of Kurtzman and Orci makes me think movieverse prequel too. The only problem is: that means the series will be set on Cybertron and/or other planets with nothing to do with Earth. Would Hasbro really go this direction?

    Here's a thought. What if they take a page out of the LOST playbook and go with heavy flashbacks/flash-forwards? Would this give them the best of both worlds or just a muddled mess?

    LOL, of everything to be worried about, this isn't one of them. There will be a toyline, or there wouldn't be a show.

    The way many fan artists convert G1 designs into Animated style, it looks like someone took Movie Bumblebee and converted it into Animated style. He looks awesome, nonetheless. :D

    Not a fan of BB, I'll wait for some Decepticons to pass my judgment.

    On another note, I might have to start buying MLP's soon, because that new design looks great.

    Lolololololololo. No.


    Anyway, it looks like Animated and The movie verse had a baby. We'll see how this all pans out though. I know they're saving stuff for botcon, but it's odd we haven't had a toy leak of some sort yet.

    ANIMATED lost me at hello.

    Still, I'll give this one a chance. Hopefully it has more dignity than Animated and will maintain my attention longer.

    It would be cool if they put Bludgeon and Mindwipe in this show, even if the model is modified to fit the style.

    Looks cool. Looks very animated style and not very movie like at all, which is good and bad.

    The proportions are also quite different, not Movie BB or Animated BB, again. Reminds me of Transtech.

    Less detailed =/= cheaper.

    :lol  This is how you can tell someone barely looked at the image before posting.
