Thanks to several Twitter users, we now have quite a lot of images from the Universal CityWalk Transformers: Bumblebee Buzz Weekend.
Hosted by Hasbro, the event featured many toys from the Bumblebee lineup as well as licensed merchandise including Disguise Inc costumes and accessories, Bumblebee sunglasses and Villy Custom limited edition cruiser.
In the toy front, the fans got to see Energon Ignitors series, Showcase Helmet, Studio Series Volkswagen Bumblebee and the Titan Changers.
A giant screen also broadcasted G1 episodes.
Speaking of giant, a life-sized statues of Bumblebee was also in display.
Supporting actor Jorge Lendeborg Jr. (Charlie Watson’s friend Memo) graced the event to give an introduction to the upcoming movie.
We thank Hasbro, Disguise Inc, Michael J Francis, Michael Dequina, Collider, and last but certainly not the least; Transformers fan M Sipher for the wonderful set of images we mirrored with this news post.

I came for this comment!
And since no one else mentioned it?
I'd like to sting a few of those bees!
Also, the dudes in that group could be hideous: notice that only the males were forced to mask themselves! I'd have more to say about that… but the girls are distracting me… wait… what is this for again? A Halloween costume show? No cover charge for the ladies?
Wait… a movie? What?

I'm sad I missed that. Jorge is adorable. I loved him in Spiderman.

Wow

Stryper just called Hasbro and told them they're using too much yellow and black.

Good point, but even that feels weird. I can understand Star Wars toys coming out three months before the film, it's Star Wars after all. But the Bumblebee movie?

It looks like they are promoting the merchendise as much (if not more) than the movie itself. It is october… notice all the costumes?
Phenotype
This seems like the sort of event you'd have the weekend before the film opens. Why are they doing so much promo now when the film doesn't come out until December? Weird.
Digger
With an avatar of SSGSSG that fits extremely well.
