Thanks to TFW2005 member griffin-of-oz for passing along some sighting news as well as in-hand images for a new mold of Rescue Bots Bumblebee. We previously saw this briefly back at Toy Fair, this being our first sighting so far. This new mold is transformable and features new packaging for the Rescue Bots toy line.
If you’re collecting these figures, keep an eye out and be sure to help each other by using our sightings forum. Continue on after the jump to see the mirrored images!

They're going back and making new versions of the first six released figures. They've already done prime. Toy fair said Boulder, Blades and Bee were coming.
Gotta love Rescue Bots. We don't even see it until it hits shelves lol

It's so cute and SMALL! Yes!
I don't like the massive/large RB that were released first. Too big.
This guy looks like the right size. HOWEVER, I'm not sure my boy still cares for poorly articulated kiddy fair. And he's only 4. Might save my money and just give him an old Energon or Armada toy from my collection instead.

The new packaging style for Rescue Bots started coming out a few weeks ago with the new Epic bots, and now the new wave of convertible bots are out (in Australia) with re-release Heatwave/boat and Salvage… plus new mold Bumblebee/car, which we saw briefly at Toyfair Australia.
Here are some more photos.
The three I could find in the store near me, so I don't know if anyone else was re-released in this wave.

On the left is the first series version, so it is interesting to see that the car mode of this new one is the same as the first Bumblebee.
The four convertible Bumblebee toys so far.
