Official Photos of Movie Premium Series Bumblebee

Very Nice Transformer! But why are the windscreen wipers silver? Isn´t it a little bit exagerated? I mean, it is not realistic anymore. Update: Looked up the Concept Camaro -> They are silver. So the Figure even got better.

Grey is more accurate than the black, since Bumblebee didn't have black limbs in the movie (nor silver).

The original release has less paint, too.

Yeah and I still like the original colors better, like I stated earlier.

I can`t wait to get the bumblee with the battle mask. When are they suppose to be out.

Aside from the differences mentioned on the first page (silver paint details in car and robot mode), the hood stripes are now more detailed, and he appears to have a metallic finish (or uses metallic yellow plastic).

The more I like at it, the first Concept Camaro Bumblebee release is superior to this, I like the black limbs over grey. The only thing this one has going for it is the head, but even then I'm starting to think the former's is actually better.

I wish these premiums were handled differently. Like, a $7 price increase on Deluxes and a $10 increase on Voyagers. Then they'd have more to work with.

I want the car mode to be painted up with nice shiny paint on every car surface, clear (not color-tinged) windows, rubber tires, chrome where needed, headlights remolded and chromed like the Alternators had, etc. Bring it up to at least what those cheap Maisto model cars look like.

Then paint the 'bot to McFarlane action figure standards. I think you could do that for a $7-$10 price increase. Then they'd be true premiums.

Then the retailers wouldn't carry them dude. Premium is mostly an excuse for Hasbro to sell redecoed figures in (theoretically) more accurate colour schemes, but not at a premium pricepoint. Retailers want affordable toys to sell, not collector niche stuff.

I cannot wait for the Premium series figures to start showing up at retail. I don't know if I like the grey as much as the black though on Bumblebee.

The original Concept BB had clear windows also, right?

Yes.

Mmm, so mine. I sold my original, with plans on purchasing this one.

I *might* get Stealth BB too, we'll see.

I want him. I'm pretty happy that he appears to have the lighter window tint (like the screen battles version). Helmet/mask helps too.

defintitely a pass for me. I intend to get the stealth version, swap heads with the original release, and that'll be good enough for me. then I can use the black one for a custom.

I dig it.

Premium BB is the one they should have released to begin with. Love the battle mask, and the grey color instead of black is a nice switch. He's definitely worth buying again.
