Thanks to the Houston, TX Walmart recon of TFW2005 member Fc203, the arrival of Bumblebee Titan Changers Wave 2 to retail is confirmed. This Bumblebee, sighted in Australia earlier this month and still available online stateside, stands 12 inches tall and rolls out in his modern Camaro scheme after just two transformation steps.

I just feel this line is a little too G1, you know? BotBots looks more creative and just fun.

I feel siege looks better than Prime Wars. Gimmicks had always been in the series. From what I heard the figures are fantastic. Hasbro is going for a more g1 look to them. The Prime Wars trilogy has ups and downs. There were some highlights. Predaking, Megatron, Devastator, Defensor, Sixshot, Overlord, and many more.

Personally I liked the Prime Wars Trilogy. Seige just seems boring and uninteresting to me. Swappable guns? That's all ya got WfC?

I think Combiner Wars started the trend of the downfall of the generations line. The combiners weren't bad, but the individual figures were. They felt cheap and forced certain characters to be in the line. We did get good figures like Ultra Magnus and Megatron. I like the idea of the Prime Wars trilogy. They were mainly created to return to old gimmicks that were never used in awhile like combiners, combining a figure with a trailer or something, and headmasters. Hasbro with the more recent WFC is doing the battlemasters gimmick. Without the gimmick the figures would be perfectly fine.

I feel like I've been seeing these at the store for a while now, but it's so ugly and cheap I paid no attention. I didn't know people were actually looking for this turd.

Even Generations, which is aimed more for older fans, got stuck with garbage figures. AoE was a dark time indeed..

When AOE came out all they sold was garbage. It was just gimmicks.

Who's the market for this thing?
Grandma?
These things must sell… but I can't figure out how or why. There are gifts that are so bad they almost instantaneously get tossed out. I think these Titan toys are those gifts.
I have a collection of Marvel/DC versions for my kids… and they never really play with them. And they definitely don't enjoy them in a way that justifies the ginormous size of these stupid things.
But that's like asking Bay to unplug his explosions machine. He wouldn't do that.
What would happen if Bay went back and messed with other 80s properties??? Oh wait. He did. TMNT.

Imagine if Bay desited to go \"g1\" and have bumblebee as a mobern vw beatle for the first 5 movies.

Jesus Christ! Imagine you're a kid in the 80's & this picture is a sneak peak of the future. Not only is Bumblebee totally fucked up but look at the TMNT. This is the future? This is progress?

Garbage, which they want to sell for profit on the eve of the upcoming film. Such is the "logic" of Hasbro. Nothing personal, they just want to sell everything they can! They absolutely do not care about the brand of car and year of manufacture, the main thing is to sell by the main name of the character!

What the hell is a 2016 Camaro driving around 1980 something.
