    This set was one of the things I really wanted for Christmas as a kid but never got.
    Thankfully the SS guys now fills that gap, but the legends set is still really cool.

    The 2007 design, tie between the 1976 and 2007 camaro. Its such a classic design with lots of nostalgia to it.

    Runners up would be WWII and Jeep, since they're Bumblebees that don't turn into Beetles/minicars or sports cars which makes them pretty unique. Also Jeep Bee's toy is really good and that helped sell me on the design.

    Oh sweet, thanks!! I forgot that I can also check with ShowZ.

    They don't have him in stock now, but in the past, when asked them about an item they didn't have in stock, they were able to add more in a couple of days.
    Mine's the KO too, and I got it about 2 years ago from a fellow board member, at a really good price. So I hope that you're able to find one as well!!

    Anyone find it a little weird how Hasbro advertises the super expensive BB movie Nemesis Prime on Hasbro Pulse but they haven't made any other BB Nemesis Prime merch?

    All this talk of Bumblebee pulled me back to SS49. I got him almost a year ago (7th December) and I wasn't a huge fan. Now? I love him.

    no, his arms snapped off years ago making him unable to transform. I removed the kibble to make it look better for the robot.

    Robot mode wise, Bumblebee def looked the best in his DOTM/TLK forms. For some reason, he looked more heroic and a little more lean than his TF1/ROTF designs. Not to mention the addition of more black made him look even better.

    Vehicle mode wise, it will also have to go for the DOTM and TLK as well, with a special mention to the '67 SS from AOE. Yes, some would argue that the DOTM and TLK Camaros look a little too loud and flashy for someone who is supposed to be in disguise, but idc since it looks so badass.

    it also kinda helps that the toys released for these designs were some of the best from their lines

    I was just reunited with my SS-49, and this figure really is incredible. I’m still blown away by how accurate they got the chest section!

    07-RotF Prime, hands down. Love his truck mode, and his robot is the perfect balance of robot to truck parts (as are most of the original 07 and RotF designs).

    I really hope the rumor of the MPM '76 Bee turns out to be true.

    Favorite overall Bumblebee is 2014, the one in AOE right? KSI wasn't joking when they said they made Bumblebee's design better in every way. He looks like a blend of Transformer and Kamen Rider(Masked Rider to western folks), probably has the coolest looking battle mask in my opinion and a plethora of arsenal in his disposal. He has his regular arm cannon but with a claw extending from it for melee combat, missile launchers, the shurikens on his back(though never seen used) & a grappling hook that he used twice but it's a fun utility gear. His colour layout is also eye-catching, I feel Bumblebee looks better with more black around him.

    2017 Bumblebee/TLK Bumblebee I like for the Warhammer that he carries on his back, its not a weapon you usually associate with Bumblebee but he looks so good carrying it. Even though the Bumblebee VS Nemesis Prime fight had it's problems seeing Bumblebee threw the thing at Optimus made me love it.

    High Octane Bumblebee I like for the vintage car mode, I think it beats 1976 Bumblebee on looks.

    DOTM Bumblebee has the best looking car mode for the character in the original trilogy.

    Yeah definitely gonna gave to agree with you that AoE 2014 Bumblebee is the coolest live action BB robot mode. Some people say it looks bad because it's too menacing when Bumblebee is a guardian but you can argue that he was more of a warrior than a guardian in AoE. If I could design my own live action BB he would have the 2014 robot mode but would transform into the 67 Camaro and would be black and yellow.

    Watched Revenge of the Fallen a few days ago. Terrible film but I loved it.

    The final version of the new toy should have some sweet-ass face ripping action
