    Bumblebee is, aparently, the most popular (and thus most profitable) Autobot in the movie line, so it makes sense he's got so many toys of him in a plethora of repaints. Although the fact he's probably the first Earth-mode sports-car leader we've ever gotten, come to think of it.

    I think this is legit, personaly. Sure it's got a lot of simularities to past BB toys, but considering the fact it's the same design used over and over and over, parts are BOUND to look similar.

    I myself will not be looking to get him. Mainly because of the price and gimmickry (I do not really like electronics, especialy noises unless really appropriate), but also because I like the innaccuracies of the HA mold myself.

    open your eyes and realize that while elements are similar, that no single part's sculpt or construction are the same as any other BB figure.

    This was built in a factory, not in photoshop.

    I can't keep up with the replys to this thread, suffice to say it is generally hilarious on every page.

    If Hasbro wants to see how we react... ok, I 'd say NO. $40~45 for a leader class and what does this one offers while the Human Alliance BB didn't ? electronics sounds and lights? NO thanks. The limbs are more movie accurate ... what else ? oh it still uses that spring loaded "hard to stay up" chest split ? oh com'on that is a failure... Then scale wise... should not look good with anything else...

    Taking a second look... I think of it as a hoax... but never mind... I am not wasting my $$ on it...

    Yes Hasbro I'd love a Leaderclass bumblebee that's slightly larger than Human Alliance Bumblebee and Slightly Smaller than Ultimate Bumblebee & Ultimate Bumblebee supercharged... thanks so much.

    I just noticed though that the way you spell it is different from me I spell the name of the next Leader Class I wanted as follows B.L.A.C.K.O.U.T.

    Thanks so much a happy and delighted consumer.

    (smell the Sarcasam.. this is the most cynical toy ever by the way as I serves to make Ultimate Bumblebee look overpriced and Human Alliance bumblebee under engineered).

    to those who are thinking that there is a new limit of leader class figures per series. I think you may be wrong. I don't know this for fact, but it seems more likely that there is 3 leader mold per year, and not X amount of leaders per series I could be completely wrong, but I really think that's the case.

    I'm not sold on this yet. HA BB was pretty much all I was looking for from a BB toy.

    Pic doesn't look fake to me, and some of you seriously need some help with English or just typing in general. A lot of this is painful to read!

    If this was Blackout / Grindor, Ironhide Or Ratchet even I'd be a lot happier... heck there's even an Argument for a Leader Class the Fallen.

    Both Ironhide and Ratchet's toys could do with a new Version that fixed the foibles of the original version be that as a Human Alliance or a Leader but something.

    I do not feel the need for a [EDIT] ANOTHER [/EDIT] Bumblebee that is out of scale with everything else.

    IMHO, Bee in Leader Class makes no sense.

    meh, looks alot like Human Alliance Bumblebee to me. I don't know how making him a leader class toy will actually improve him. Either way I probably won't pick him up. I'm all Bumblebee'd out.

    You just made my day.

    Anyways I'd rather have a leader class whose name starts with a g and ends with an r.

    CAN YOU GUESS WHO!?!?!?:lolol
