Thanks to PrimevsPrime on Youtube, we can share for you set of images of the new Transformers Studio Series SS-58 Dark Of The Moon Roadbuster for your viewing pleasure.
SS-58 Roadbuster is a new mold of one of the Wrecker’s trio seen in the third live-action film. This figure goes in scale with the rest of the Studio Series figures, so he is kind of a small Deluxe like previous Studio Series Bumblebee figures. Robot mode shows a very nice amount of details, with a decent amount of articulation points, but with quite a big backpack. The Nascar Impala alt mode is where this mold shines since it comes in his “weaponized mode” from the film. We also have comparison shots next to the original DOTM Deluxe Roadbuster from 2011 and SS-49 Camaro 2007 Bumblebee.
Check out all the images on this news post, as well as a video review, after the jump. Let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Offroad Bumblebee is awesome. His articulation in robot mode is nothing short of AMAZING.

If you like jeeps in this scale, I recommend Cobi’s brick built ones. The figures included are an acquired taste, but the Jeep itself is solid and very accurate in both form and scale. Just this year they’ve brought out multiple Jeep variants, from WW2 up to the vietnam war.

Fianlly got mine and he\'s great, except for one thing, the hood of his jeep mode refuses to collapse. It simple will not accept the small plugs that tab it together. I\'m sorely tempted to just slice them off.

I picked up Bumblejeep the other day and I absolutely LOVE this figure! I'm impressed with the details in the WW2 jeep mode, like the hood blocks for supporting the windshield when it's folded down to the body grab bars and the axe and shovel mounts on the sides. I might buy a second one and paint it olive drab like my dad's WW2 jeep (1942 Ford GPW).
As for my Bumblejeep, I love displaying it in vehicle mode with the windshield folded down. It's my favorite way to drive a jeep (just keep your mouth closed while driving to keep the flies out of your teeth)! It's a little bit of a bummer that you can see the arms below the jeep mode, but that's a design concession I can live with considering the rest of the awesome vehicle details.
Here's a comparison shot:

AOE Hound is the best Hound change my mind
Rated X
The only thing G1 about KNights Bee is that he is a bug. He even has the Bay head and the car hood chest associated with Bayverse Bee. As far as Hound from the Bee Jeep, I just dont see it. Maybe Swindle, but not even. I thought we were done with cheesy G1 repaints of movie molds. They were cool in 2007 when we didnt have actual CHUG versions of the characters to scratch that G1 itch. Not gonna lie, I could have lived without Knights rendition of Prime too. It looks too much like a video game. Too G1 to look real life, but too movielike to be G1 if that makes any sense to you. What you get is a video game looking character. He looked so out of place compared to Bee, Shatter, Dropkick, and Blitzwing who all were Bayverse aesthetic. (Post ROTF more humanoid Bayverse aesthetic)
T-Hybrid
Because they've established there's Bayverse, and then there's Beeverse.
Beeverse has movie style on a more G1 alt (think SS-38 and VW Bee). So what better way to get some mileage out of the mold than to make him Beeverse Hound?
