I have not seen that one I will have to check it out. Is it deluxe sized?
Shinobitron
lol I've been seeing these and didn't even notice they were new.

Totally agree with you. This Nova Blast thing is pointless if you ask me.
Jlogano20
nope, just assumed since the first case was 4 BBs lol

I… could actually see buying this. Every time there's a crazy 'bee repaint, I end up getting it and calling it G2 Wildrider. I guess this one looks the part more than most? It'd really work if I bothered to paint the head black and the face maroon…

Jlogano20, did you see the full case for yourself?
Just curious because I picked this up today too. A Target associate brought up a full case from the back but since it was already opened, I can't say it was case fresh. It was a case of 4 (similar to W1) but consisted of 2 x Skylynx and 2 x Nova Blast Bumblebee.
Is it possible that Hasbro is throwing in 2 old, and 2 new in this W2 case assortment?
Anyone else seen these case fresh and can confirm the assortment?

Woops. My bad, thanks for pointing out that. That's what happens when I eat dinner later than usual haha.
So sad, it's just full of repainted Bees'.

Shin Densetsu
Should've just made these ROSS exclusives the black bee looks way better

Oh right. I forgot about that one.
Every time I see that mold I think pre-Earth Throttlebots.

Reveal the Shield or 07 movie or Animated Jazz?
So that's where all the yellow plastic went.
Now I'm curious about that Hyena Cannon.

EDIT: My apologies, Vertebreak is not part of the Target exclusives line.

The times I've been to the big box retailers, I haven't seen a whole lot of bumblebees shelfwarming, either. Like the above poster mentioned, I've seen more BH Wheeljack and FOC Soudnwaves + cassettes. Also, I've seen a ton of Deluxe Jazz figures around.

Yay, another Bumblebee repaint! Genius.
Actually, Bumblebee hasn't been shelf-warming as much over here, recently. I've seen more Wheeljacks, Soundwaves and Arcees.
Bumblebee is still around, though, of course, but at least it isn't shelf-warming like the Generations cassetticons that are NZ$20 and totally not worth that at all.

It's like you read my mind! What fans need and crave is YET MORE BUMBLEBEE VARIANTS. WE all know that he's the only character that matters!

I just hope there don't stock much of this.
