And as predicted… here is the third Transformers: Prime toy of the day. Meet Deluxe Bumblebee, Thanks to IGN.
Transformers Prime has brought the animated robots-in-disguise back in a big way, and Hasbro is keeping up with a brand new assortment coming in October of 2011. It is IGN’s pleasure to bring you the exclusive first look at Hasbro’s Transformers Prime First Edition Bumblebee action figure, shown below. Pretty snazzy, if we do say so. The Transformers Prime First Edition action figure assortment includes Arcee and Starscream as well.After the Transformers: Dark of the Moon Superbowl Commercial… It’s Transformers: Prime News Marathon here at TFW2005…. Well, that’s just Prime!

December, with the rest of the 1st edition toys.

does anybody know when this comes out?

looks AMAZING with the chest scrunched in a bit. It's funny how big a difference one or two centimeters in width makes.
MegaHavok
I would rather have the large scale then the crappy paint apps of the human alliance drivers

Interesting. From the looks of it, Prime Bumblebee's toy has sholders that transform similar to WFC Bumblebee's heels (internal parts swing around to enclose an otherwise exposed wheel) and the feet are similar to G1 Jazz's feet in structure and mass. All I need to know to be sold on this figure is how stable that middle chest area is.

Maybe Hasbro is thinking ahead and the kids are closer in scale to some larger figures to be released later.

The chest is looking a LOT better in this pic. I'm happy. Wasn't liking the arms sticking out so far, and the straight bar along his chest.

I posted this last night in the Prime/Megs/Kids thread, but just in case you missed it:
NEW PHOTO!
Wow, the kids are bigger than I expected.

It folds inside the doors on hinges that are connected to the top of the windows. I'm diggin' it.

Liking this figure a lot – this is a deluxe? Holy Crap!
Looks beefier that BB in the show, but really dig how sleek he looks – what happened to the car roof?
Koolimus Prime

Looks like Bee has been taking some roids and hittin the gym.

The period is your friend.
But yeah, I think 'bee looks awesome. I had no intention of getting Prime toys save Op and Megatron, but now…

You know I'm not usually a fan of movie inspired BBs but this is awesome indeed all 3 deluxes look good the Megatron looks ok but the Optimus is pretty aweful though they both look like deluxes too which is is sad these 2 should have been voyagers the main thing that is troubling me about these is the sensation that the Prime toys are going to be treated like the WFC toys and just released in generations I mean was Animated the last main non movie line we are gonna get is it just going to be deluxes thrown in generations now for anything that isn't a movie tie in?
I thought Prime was meant to be the next big thing especially since this will likely be the last movie for a while.

Bee looks real nice, this cuter and rounder design works much better for the toy than the blocky movie design.
Hope his wings can be pushed together to look like a silly kid's play prop, 'cus I loved that detail on his design, but even if it does not, it's still a very cool looking bee!

This is soooooooooooooo true. The Transformers I buy these days have all been for my kids, but I just might have to start buying some for myself again.
Auto Morph
Looks pretty good. So, IMO we have so far gotten a couple of crappy-ish figures (Prime and Starscream) and Megs, Bumblebee and Arcee look fairly decent. Whether I'll actually go out and buy them or not…
I just don't think I have room in my collection for a whole 'nother line!
