The newest Transformers Movie is in theaters today with the official mass release of Transformers: Bumblebee. That however is a prequel, showing bee in his iconic 80’s style VW Beetle form. The last time we saw Bumblebee in current times he was rocking a sleek modded version of the 6th gen Camaro from Chevrolet in Transformers The Last Knight. 3A, known for their high end, large scale figures have been doing Transformers figures since 2015. While they don’t transform, they are extremely accurate to the movie model and feature a massive amount of sculpt and painted detailing. And they’re big! Today we are taking a look at 3A’s version of TLK Bee, which should be shipping en mass to retailers world wide soon after an initial run a couple months ago.
Since today is a Bee kinda day, we hope you enjoy the gallery (I had a lot of fun shooting it!). Make sure to stop by the 2005 Boards after you see the new movie and let us know what you think! The fandom has been overall positive about the film (including me!) and we hope you feel the same. Sound off either way here! And yes, 3A will be doing figures based on the new movie in multiple sizes!
Read on to check out over 70 HD images showing what this masterpiece can do and how he’d fit in to your collection!

Dude mine was new and the crack happened even when taking precautions with the waist. Now I understand why the move to die-cast
Shmoptimus Prime
This is making me scared to mess with mine, which I haven't touched much in the last several months.

CobraKai
That’s awesome. I’m prolly never gonna own anything 3-0 as their products are out of my price range, but the fact that they didn’t blow you off is great for their reputation
BeeWave
That's great to hear, glad they are taking care of your issue!
Javier Llamas

Well this is a long story: Back in 2021 I bought a used TLK Prime, but sadly the feet was too tight, that it broke months later in 2022 I got the I was having really fun with it until the dreaded torso happened yesterday. So I pick up the old one and I try everything. screwing the legs to change to broke one to the changed and etc. But I came to the conclusion to restore everything as it was and then I make the broken foot change and worked sadly the tight joints are loose that if I move it, is smooth so there’s no internal damage. Now I need to ask threezero if they repair my loose joints on the legs, I hope they give the good lookView attachment 29824939View attachment 29824985 View attachment 29824984View attachment 29824983View attachment 29824982 View attachment 29824981View attachment 29824980

A friend told to use a Screw to connect it and have it as a statue. My method before that when the breakage happened was putting super glue in the cracks and well did not work.
Shmoptimus Prime
It’s tough to have a broken figure. Is there any way you can try to repair it yourself? If not then yeah you could try selling it for parts.
Javier Llamas
No problem I hope with the DLX people start selling theirs again. At least for parts also do you think mine would be worth if I sell it for parts?
Shmoptimus Prime
Sorry dude, mine is still functioning normally and isn’t broken so I can’t sell it for parts.
Javier Llamas
I’m willing to buy another Optimus for replacement? Anyone interested of sell theirs
contact me
Javier Llamas
Crazy question. Knowing that the DLX optimus TLK is coming out at the end of this year and I haven’t found a way to repair my Optimus. Is someone willing to sell me only the body for the premium Optimus? Just the body
Javier Llamas
Happy holidays, I still feel sad of what happened to the foot of my optimus
Shmoptimus Prime
HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!
