They are both a pretty good improvement over the original. I think I'm going to only pick up rocket BB though. The preview fig is just a bit too much like the TFTM release to warrant a purchase.

Or, I could collapse into OCD weakness and pick him up the second I see him on a peg...we shall see.
ElekTriC
i like the preview one a bit better. but i think i will end up with both versions..
Draven
So the preview one has 1 hand, and a silly missile launcher? And the "Cannon" one has 2 little gatling guns, and no chest automorph? And they BOTH have creepy as hell eyes?
Pass on both. Neither are good/different enough to make me buy another Deluxe Bumblebee.

Whatever happened to if it ain't broke don't fix it?


Oh. Right. Money.

And plenty of bitching from people who want "new" toys instead of reused molds.

Get used to it.

Oh, I am very much used to it. Have been for awhile.

I'll still vote with my wallet though.
Cyber-Scream
Looks much better and improved than the other movie BBs, but still pass. I'm not rich!
lt.jdavid
This bumblebee is way better than the originals I think this is one of the coolest new movie toys I've seen so far!
megatronkicksas
What a thing of beauty, verry nice mold/re-mold the cannnons on his shoulders are what's selling this guy for me.
Ravenxl7
He looks pretty good, but the windows still bother me. I have a feeling he'll be added to my collection anyways, as the rest of him looks great. Even the inaccurate chest looks good, imo. My Premium Bumblebee will most likely be renamed Goldbug (he is a little shiny). That way I can have a reason to have two Deluxe class Movie Bumblebee's in my collection.
Orion_Prime48
eh ill end getting both why deny it
Ra88
...The hell? That cannon Bumblebee is a freaking joke! The gimmick is simple, the molding is pathetic and extremely lacking in details, the greenish plastic hue is just so freaking weird and not to mention ugly...Real shame, the early pics had me hopeful about this one. :/
shibamura_prime
Opposable thumbs!
Autobot Burnout
The Cannon BB looks so much cooler then the Preview BB, so I might buy it. It's probably the fact it's got more of that 'new movie inaccuracy' feel I guess that makes it so appealing to me (Autobot logo on the fenders, chest and doors not angled, sholder cannons that he doesn't really have) and different from the Premium BB I got in the WM 3-pack (although I admit, I never really wanted movie BB then, I just wanted Classics BB)
@l3x
The icing on the cake for the heavily remolded bumblebee would have been for the wheels to be properly positioned in the heel. Oh well, I like it enough to get it even though I own the original. It seems like a cartoony interpretation of the live action model.
Breakaway-Rocks
I like the ROTF (Human alliance?) Bumblebee that comes with Sam that can fit into him in car mode and has a movie accurate chest
dougzx9
I'll be getting cannon Bumblebee and passing on the preview one. Hopefully I can swap out the head from '07 concept 'bee, the new one is scary looking.
helix
it seems wierd that they used the more transparent windows on the version that doesnt have a "proper" interior, and the almost solid windows on the version that does (or at least attempted it).
Rod
BumbleBee's eyes look like they want to rape my childhood
OMEGAPRIME1983
well, I think it looks tons better properly transformed. the pics we got from tf08.com had him all weird looking with his shoulders really far down. This looks much better. Ill be getting atleast 2 of each of these figures so I can see if I cant figure out howto take the roof of the cannon BB and place it onto CCBB and the preveiw BB just cuz I like the chests on that mold better. Or, maybe there would be a way to make Cannon BB's chest more accurate which may be easier to do... HMMMMMMM...

This. I think it's an improvement overall from the original, and I personally have no problem with the head. But there could be more details then there are. Maybe I'll bite if they release another Premium of this guy, but I'll be sticking with my '07 version for now.
dyingwill3rd
Bumblebee is my favorite bot, but i think i would rather get his Human Alliance version over these guys
a person
The chest on Cannon Bumblebee is boring. The original chest looks better, so why make it worse?
benzo
meh.. I perfer the original
Fort Max
So have Hasbro fulfilled their Bumblebee figures per movie quota yet.
Drpee
I am very disappointed that the new bb mold doesnt have the automorph chest as that added so much screen-accuracy, BUT the other improvements make up for it i think, and since im such a huge BB fan i can fix that problem by buying both of them!
Omnius
Well Cannon BB looks like a huge step backward for me - the chest looks more like the FAB version. I'll see how Human Alliance BB turns out, but for now I'm sticking with TF1 BB.
Scourge_151
If I do go for a BB toy from ROTf it'll probably be the bigger alliance figure, these remoulds aren't different enough.
OMEGAPRIME1983
I wonder if there will be a way to mod the new bb to mimic the HA bbs chest$$$ that would be really great!
SentinelPrime
Why are people complaining about the heads of these two?

They look just like the film version! I love it, as opposed to the TF1 BB's heads, which looked nothing like the movie. I'm looking at my TF1 BB right now in hand and either of these are a huge improvement.

It always bugged me that the TF1 BBs face never looked right so I'm excited; sucks that I have to trade to movie accurate chest for movie accurate arms, though.

Hmmm....preview or cannon....
alien
awesome...
StarFire_MK2
The eyes, and especially the solid opaque windows, means I'll pass on this. I like the cannons though.
Solrac333
Instead of one great figure, they make two half assed figures. Either of these may be good for kit bashing or parts swapping though.
Rob Almighty
The Canon BB chest seems like it can do more. You can see separations in the plastic. Maybe the chest does move, but not to the extent the previous molds. I'll reserve judgment on the figure until I see a video review or other pics that show what those separations are for.
Mumble-bee
I expect I'm buying both.

I'm iffy on new versions of a lot of the characters I already have from the first movie, but the 'Bee is probably my favorite in any incarnation, so ...
IsThatOne
Ahhhghghg!!! the pupilssss!!!

Looks like new bumblebee has the palm up arm syndrome.
Looks good besides that. Though the Transformation seams (where the panels meet in car mode) they don't really look solid... buuut that's a minor thing.
Jarodimus
I don't get it. Why make Cannon BB so the front end doesn't separate, but still mold in those panel lines?
devlingrey
I wonder what pieces are interchangable. I think I will get this one and try the following:

A. Switch out the head with the 07 one
B. Try to switch out the the front windshield so that it is clear

I like aspects of this mold much better than the first one. Two hands with opposable thumbs makes this mold a big win to me.

I can, however, understand why people are turned off by the head. I wonder if a little paint wash could dull down the eyes a bit. Is there anyone out there who could give advice on that?
Bumblejazz
Cannon Bumblebee is pretty cool. I'll probably end up getting both. I'm a sucker for Bumblebee.
Heat Guy
Both are made of win, I'll end up picking up both of them. Cant wait to get the Preview wave Bumblebee though.

Those panel lines appear to be where the hood pops up with the hinge at the front so his head can come out. The entire bumper is one solid piece. There are no panel breaks in the yellow line portion that goes all the way along the front.
Scantron
Meh, I'll pass on both "cannon" Bumblebee and "preview" Bumblebee. Neither is enough of an improvement over '08 Bumblebee to justify a purchase.

Ah, that looks to be true. Good call.
Feralstorm
If I had my way, I'd go for the preview Bumblebee toy with the hands from the gatling cannon one (I'd like the cannons too, but I don't see an easy way to do so without the same compromises the actual toy made.)
LightningZERO
I think I will pass on these 2 and get the Human Alliance instead
Automorpher
I still hate his stare & his "firing missile"

..But those cannons on his shoulders & that new head's a vast improvement though.

Are there shoulder cannons on that version? If so, I'll probably get the HA version instead!

I'm trying not to add another repaint.
Mr. Sparklebot
I remember during the TF drought after the movie how the original mold of the Concept BB was highly sought after and scarce - now it's just the opposite, we'll be flooded w/ these guys .
