    It looks okay, but I\'d need to see the robot mode first before laying down that amount of money!!!

    How is this less than the Megatron scooter? Maybe I’m just not familiar with the typical amount for which the manufacturers of these kinds of vehicles are asking.

    The go-kart has some promise for kids. Would love to see Prowl or Sideswipe (not going to happen, I know). I’ve been fed-up with Bumblebee for 15 years now. The only Bumblebees I own in my entire collection, now going back 23 years, are G1 and WFC Origins. But I digress…

    No AI, no software, no transformable or auto-opening parts. It’s less of a Transformer than the Rivian I saw parked at my local supermarket yesterday.

    Ugh, I spy with my little optic receptors something that’s not gonna sell to speak of.

    I mean at least the Bumblebee version has some semblance of the character to it, this is just like they said “eh, paint it red & blue and we’re good.” Not to mention the price obviously.

    While the bulk of TF collectors have limited budgets, they wouldn't create this partnership if they didn't expect to sell some units and at the listed price.

    It's not meant to sell thousands or even hundreds of units. But there's a market and that market is likely to engage with this crossover.

    I can afford this, but I have no use for it, so I'll pass. Hasbro inherited the Wizards of the Coast business strategy of "not every product is meant for every consumer."

    Indeed, it totally has Mariokart vibes to it.
