Prototype images for two upcoming Takara-Tomy releases have been spotted: Disney Label Donald Duck & Alternity Bumblebee/Cliffjumper. Alternity Bumblebee/Cliffjumper is the first non-Nissan car based mold to show up in Alternity and will be based on a RS416 Suzuki Swift Sport. Color availability will include Champion Yellow (Bumblebee), and Pearl Red (Cliffjumper).
Donald’s image show us the figure with a bit more clarity than previous images. We get a look at his motorized skateboard and also of mini-Donald on his head.

He's a duck. Didn't you know that ducks snorkel and surf, duh.

Both of them look alright, maybe better when they are both painted they will look better. But why does Donald have a scuba mask??

I think this is the thread referred to earlier:

They honestly look like they have the same head to me.

I think Cliffjumper should be another car: Toyota Prius, eheheheheheh…or…that would be Beachcomber.
@l3x
I think Classics Bumblebee got the point across much better than the Alternity version. Curious to see what color they go with besides yellow though.

Yes. BB is quite a fatass.

I hope this is mistransformed .. the front hood should be folded up ? I don't like this diaper look..

Not really feeling the BB look. Must see final pics of it in color to make a better judgment. And I like the Donald Duck, but not enough to make me buy that when I have plenty of other things I like better on my wish list.

on the other hand, bumblebee's robot mode looks…chunky. He's gotta lay off the energon.

Yeah, no. I saw the pics in that thread and they are way to blurry to see differences in the head molds.
Blitz.
I knew their was word that their was going to be a red toy since Alternity toys come in 2's (bar black editions) and I don't recall any word on a new head. In fact their might have been a point made that it will be the same head for both
Jaguaratron
I went away and came back, that Bumblebee still looks like ass…

One of the threads about the Tokyo toy show had pix of some prototypes. There were two head molds. Dig through that thread.

Wow, how shit.
Bgrngod
Where did you see that info?
chuckcjc
I didn't know that. Thanks for the info. I can't wait for BB and Cliffjumper. Its going to be sweet.
OptionZero
There are two head molds for the Swift. The other will be red.
SoundShock
sigh. I'm not G1 savvy, but when is there gonna be a Cliffjumper that's a new mold?
OptionZero
The swift won't have to stop for gas as much and can fit in more parking spots.
Cheaper maintenance as well.
alternity line uses licensed car modes so their selection might be limited
