ThreeA has an important announcement for us:
“ThreeA’s excited to be attending TFcon 2017 taking place just outside of Washington DC next weekend!
This year Ashley Wood has drawn up an absolutely stunning and stylish portrayal of beloved best friends, Bumblebee and Spike!
Thanks to Syd and Bellevue Fine Art, this Limited Edition Print will be available at ThreeA’s booth during the show along with an extremely limited stock of the Transformers Dark of the Moon Premium Scale Optimus Prime!“
You can check out the artwork, after the jump.

Bumblebee pretty much went out of the limelight in the post-86 world, but for the first few years, he was a major character in the show (which is probably why they made him into an 'upgraded' form as Goldbug AND a pretender AND an Action Master), and he remained pretty popular with the OG G1 crew, and has featured prominently in G1 revival art and figures in most if not instances.
There's a reason he was chosen to get pushed in 2007 alongside Prime in the first place.
I really dig this piece, it reminds me of some of the old covers and UK art for the Marvel Comics, when they tried to take more stylistic liberties with the Transformers. It's not going to be for everyone, but its cool to see the Transformers imagined in artistic ways you don't often see.

Not digging it at all.
Pho’ptimus Prime
Oh, man! I want this. I love this print.
Goldimus Prime
Ding ding ding!
Yessiree! And while the abomination that is Bay Movie Bumblebee, and the progeny it's spawned may have choked out the toy aisles these past 10 years…the OG Bumblebee remains dear to me.
Cool poster!

Man is there any of 3A paintings that are available for high res, I really wanted to have that cover for Scronge before too. This one is perfect….only 50 that\'s sad.

There were people that liked and wanted new Bumblebee toys before 2006.

Why do they keep pushing Bumblebee on us???
Because he's popular?
So are other characters. Bumblebee was nothing before 2007 when they started pushing him on the mindless zombie masses that can't think for themselves. If they pushed Wheelie as hard as Bumblebee then Wheelie would be just as popular.

Not really my cup of tea.

Hmm…
"I want to go to there"
I love Ashley Wood's stuff. I mean, I want that, and I hate Bumblebee! Another reason to regret not going to TFCon.
(sigh) Oh well.

It's very nice art. Very abstract.
My only question is… that's Spike?
The clothes threw me for a loop.
