Japanese blogger Tagoal has posted up some in hand images of Beast Hunters Deluxe Wave 5. Up first is Night Shadow Bumblebee. This latest version of Bumblebee is a redeco of the Beast Hunters Wave 1 Bumblebee, which means lots of spikes, lots of missiles, and a bow to fire those missiles! This Bumblebee sports the black with yellow-gold racing stripes look that the Autobot scout sported throughout the third and final season of Transformers Prime.

Crikey. The regular BH 'bee was already getting comparisons, but this guy is red-eyes-and-windows away from being Murderbee II.

I wonder if this version has light-piping for the eyes or if it was meant for for the head to look like a helmeted skull

They actually managed to make a KillerBee that I actually want to get. Congrads Hasbro.

Much better than the yellow version. Love the gold on the head crest and the silver face.

I'd been meaning to pick up the regular BH Bumblebee, but I'm so glad I waited until I found out about this guy.

While I'm not a fan of this mold, I do really like that color scheme. More gold would have been nice, especially in alt-mode. The blue is a nice addition, but I would be tempted to just remove those parts of him. I would prefer a repaint of his FE mold into his new color scheme, but I might get this. I could display this in bot-mode and the Weaponizer repaint/retool in alt-mode.
Quick question for those that own this mold. How hard would it be to pop those blue pieces on his door wings off of there? I can see that they're attached using the same kind of connectors as the wheels. Are they in there pretty snug? or would it be feasible to pop them off without needing to use enough force that you could potentially damage him in the process?

ok so I said I won't buy any more bumblebees but yeah i'm changing my mind. This looks good. Just need to get rid of all the hunter weapons but otherwise looks pretty close to the show.

A BB redeco that I like…this should've been the Bee that
.

I will take this bb with a normal looking head. I barely recognize him!!
BuyandBuild
The helmet, especially from the side and the bulk makes me think that Bee stayed on Earth in Transformers Go and got some samurai armor. He has already met the Rescue Bots, so why not? If either him or Samurai Prowl had the same aesthetics, that would be a great display!

I like this color scheme a lot more than the regular Hunter Bumblebee. Might pick it up.
SPLIT LIP
His head REALLY reminds me of Kamen Rider Blade.
I may get him. He looks pretty good.

Aside from that blue I like it even more then before. Kind of sad since it doesn't look like he has the same creepy gaze as his original did. Ah well guess I'll just get both. Not like there's a BB shortage or anything.
Rumblestorm
I already have this mold, I'll stick to the weaponizer BB that's coming out
Feralstorm
I….. Like it. The dark deco goes really well with the Spiky McMissleBaySplosion mold. I'll get it if I find it.
Since it's not really accurate to anything seen on-screen, feel free to ignore the name on the card and come up with your own.

This would make a good Shattered Glass Goldbug in a way. Are there any red Autobot sigils on him?
Autovolt 127
I got the mold earlier this week (in the form of PRID Hot Shot) but now I'm sure to pick this up as my Prime Bumblebee.

A picture of the car without most of the bits on it !

Since it looks like the missel holders on the doors can be pulled off fairly easily, I may pick this fig up at sometime, given the only thing I really didn't like about it was the allspark blue.
I kinda wish he still had the 'owl eyes' of the original version, though.
Ktulu
It does look neat. Still, it'd be more interesting if it was a new character.
