    Looking at the older photos, the back half of the whips were just blocked by something in all of them; they’ve always been that long.

    Why can't leakers ever take good pics?

    and the fact that we got the rumor of a high octane bee coming in studio series i think next year, make me think this is not apart of the buzzworthy line

    Because their either A. In too much of a hurry to make sure someone doesn’t steal their clout,

    or B. They don’t care if it’s transformed correctly all they want is the clout.

    If the leakers take clear photos in the first go, the demand for more pics won't be too high. If a leaker takes a blurry photo, teasing the figure, people will want more and more. The demand will stay high, and the leakers will keep getting clout.

    I don't know what it is but that Sideswipe has always been the one Bay movie design I have actually really liked, and purchased.. over and over.

    Yeah, they're incorrect. The RotF car had them on either side of the top of the hood.

    Yeah, that’s correct. No one is arguing that he’s accurate, but rather pointing out that he does have lights: the DotM ones from the first version of this mold. His car mode’s grille is also inaccurate; it shouldn’t be black – that didn’t happen until DotM.

    It was at this moment that Shizuka realized that Revenge of the Fallen is 12 years old, and she getting up there in her years.

    Where have the years gone? Transformers: Prime is over 10 years old, Fall of Cybertron is nearly 10 years old, and I feel like they were recent. What am I doing with my life?

    So the product number on that High Octane Bumblebee is indeed new (F1994).

    As for upcoming Buzzworthy Studio series releases, the only listing we have is for a VS pack.

    So speculation time...

    Maybe the VS pack is the reissue of this figure along a with a reissue of Stinger. With a background included to recreate the Showroom scene from AOE.

    This is just speculation. I have no idea where this figure would end up though in the Buzzworthy line if it’s not in the 2 pack.

    Are we sure this is a new one? What would the production number be on the release from the 2017 box set?

    It’s 100% a new run. The old set was product number C2028.
