I wasn't planning on getting it, or any more movie toys for that matter.

But now it looks like I will buy one more.



EDIT: Images mirrored here: http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-...camaro-164413/
Optimus747:
Stealth Bumblebee is PIMP
Feralstorm:
I think it would look better with a little less yellow, but it still looks nicer than my initial impression. Think I may grab this one and not bother with the upcoming Premium series BB.
Optimus747:
Seriously, if I ever got one of these Camaros in real life, I'd have it painted like this.
Omegus Prime:
Meh, still not impressed... his vehicle mode looks nice but so much of his robot mode is hidden and still yellow that he barely looks any different transformed, if he didn't have the battle mode helmet he'd be virtually unchanged in that mode.
artiepants:
i'm honestly not that impressed with the headsculpt.

the car is just sick though.
Chaos Incarnate:
The idea of molding a car in color and then painting the entire thing is so novel. I like it. The head IS a little wonky though. That's easy to fix.
Peaugh:
The vehicle mode in the pictures DOES look slick, but I'm just not thrilled enough to buy it for the only new bit - the headsculpt. Especially since I'll likely nab the Premium Bumblebee when he hits.
Banshee:
Very slick! definitely the best repaint since the original release of the mold.
SMOG:
I'm still pretty much SHOCKED to see that he's still in yellow, but painted black.

I mean, doesn't that seem, I dunno... a little stupid?

Pauly T:
This might be the one deco of the Concept Camaro mold that I'll actually purchase.

The bot mode looks so much less crummy this time around...

Maybe they overproduced 08 BumbleBees because so many people were complaining about them being hard to find, and eBay sellers were scalping and hording the things like mad.

To make up for the excess/overproduced stock and to save some $$$ AND to make some $$$, Hasbro took the overstock, painted it black, and slapped on a new head that they KNEW people would buy the figure just for that specific part, so they could swap it out with the unmasked head on 08 BumbleBee.

If Hasbro's main goal is to make money, then it makes perfect business sense to me.
Predaking:
This is one repaint that I just might get. Love the vehicle color.
lookinglasself:
Looks good in alt mode. I'm getting the Premium version though.
Bumble Prime:
is the right arm/car roof piece comletely over sprayed? or is that the light?

why is that piece yellow at all???

all the black pieces are molded in yellow, and painted black. Why? Maybe black paint was cheaper then getting black plastic and they had leftover yellow? I have no idea though
Bumble Prime:
wait a tick i know why!

its so obvious


it would take a bajillion coats of yellow paint to put those stripes on over the black................ alright that makes sense, mold it in yellow and remove paint instead of applying to make yellow stripes
Deceptigtar:
its a shame they have to release 2 different molded heads, one with and one without battle mask. dont know why it would be so hard to have made it originally with battle mask that could move up and down.
ckhtiger:
well, DUH, I mean haven't you ever read shortpacked? mcfarlane bought up all of the black plastic
REDLINE:
it looks like SOME of the black is in fact plastic. the hood pieces, the yellow looks like its paint. Granted the roof parts on the arms is definitely yellow painted black. Its really easy to see its yellow paint on the hood in the close-up in robot mode.
Quantum_Penguin:
I think they painted it black to give the vehicle mode that nice gloss. Otherwise it would probably be the same dull black/charcoal gray that the arm and pelvis are molded in. Still, it would have looked better if they'd painted BOTH sides.

But all in all this looks much nicer than it did before. I think I much prefer the Camaro in this scheme than the original.
Deefuzz:
Beautiful! I absolutely love this repaint.
Blaque_Ravage:
Nice car mode....ok bot mode...it would look better with less yellow in his bot mode.
Smasher:
Darn.

I was hoping he would have more "Allspark Blue".
-just kidding.
Ravenxl7:
I wasn't planning on getting him, but I might end up buying him, or maybe even Premium Bumblebee. Hopefully I don't, as I want to somehow get a G1 Grimlock with the little extra cash I currently have.
Metal Soldier:
I like it a lot. Although with a few more modifications they could have had a whole new character and called him Yellowjacket or something.
jww:
Can someone tell me if this is what bumblebee will look like in Transformers 2 the movie?

Surprised the toy makers already know...
prime04:
the reasom why i think its yellow then black it is because of the colors. since yellow is such an light color, it would take a hell of a lot longer (and more paint) to paint the black pieces and still make it look black. where as it would not that long to cover a yellow piece with a dark color (black).

Not that we know of, as we don't have any pictures of anything from the 2nd movie, let alone anything of Bumblebee. As it is, this is just a toy repaint, and isn't meant to represent any on-screen form of BB (again, that we know of so far). TF lines have repaints like this all the time. They have repaints of the toys that don't represent anything from the show itself. Most likely, BB will look exactly the same as the last movie. Maybe a different color scheme, but that would be about it for any differences, imo.
SPLIT LIP:
That thing isn't even going to make it into robot mode without being painted when I get it. Paint the stripes black-ish silver, get rid of any yellow bits showing through in vehicle mode, add a red stript to the front... BOOM, Knight Rider repaint.

That's what I'm gonna do.
Dropshot:
I always knew that this one was going to be probably the best repaint of the movie line, but everybody was really negatve to it.

I'll even buy 2 of those.

Yep, I may get 2. Really like Bee's head.

Love this repaint. Even the yellow in bot mode.

That's my plan as well.

I think that's the idea ... so he can stand in (so to speak) for regular BB with a battle mask.

I'm still switching the head though.

Or called him Goldbug (Bumblebee's rebuilt and mature form from G.I. JOE AND THE TRANSFORMERS #4)
shibamura_prime:
I still like this guy. Though, personally I think the battlemask head looks odd on him. I would've like a repainted regular 'Bee head to match but that's just me.
Railguard:
I like this one but I agree that they could have called this one a different name or something.
Poho:
if it were any sexier it would be illegal in most countries. ima get me a coupla those.

First thing I thought of. Glad I wasn't the only one
ease:
Nice! I have one of these on preorder. Even with all the movie repaints,this Bee looks worth having.
Pauly T:
The amount of yellow in Stealth BB's bot mode looks way better than the amount of yellow in the Regular BB's bot mode.

This is the best this mold has looked yet.

Add in the new, better-looking head, and this is a done deal.
Lupis Convoy:
it's good enough for me to drop $10 on it. Consider me in. Switch heads with my extra 08, and a little repainting will make it look nice.
Blunticon:
Damn that is awesome!
Agent-GHQ:
Talkin about milk molding.....
BlitzFire:
so...do we have an eta other then March 08 for the realease date?
Smkscrn GT:
Big ol' pass from me. The next BB I get will be Premium.
Automorpher:
He looks more like a hornet than a bee now.
