    While it might be fun for an ep... don't count on it, any more than you should count on Oil Slick showing up or BB getting the Activator "police car" deco.

    You know, Hasbro, if we're going to start repainting TFA Bumblebee, I'd really like a Re-entry BB deco I could pass off as TFA Cliffjumper, mmmkay? :) 

    Still, those redecos are pretty cool, especially the Activators one.

    I'm continually impressed by the quality of the animated figures. I just wish June would roll around already so I can get my hands on them.

    could that be bumblebee's colour scheme in the traitor episode as its supposed to be a flashback to the cybertron elite guard training?

    I don't think Bumblebee was never in the Elite Guard. The flashback is from when he and Bulkhead were in Autobot boot camp becoming official Autobots. Elite guard is something only the best of the best can get into and from what we've been led to believe it is something different.

    i personally think it would be cool to have him be qualified to join the elite guard, but he decides to stay on earth with his buddies-could be a nice characterization episode for him. the repaint can be used for a brief moment, and thats like right before he turns them down or something-could be cool.

    It would be cool to see this EG deco in, like, a fantasy sequence of BB's while he's in AutoBoot-Camp.

    "I'm gonna be all black and gold. It'll be sooo cool!"

    Then he gets hit in the face by the mop Bulkhead's using to clean up the mess they've made...
