Killerbody, company specialized in RC products and speakers, surprised us with a new and impressive Officially Licensed Bumblebee Movie Optimus Prime Mask/Speaker.
The promotional video from Killerbody Weibo shows a really impressive movie-accurate helmet with a great rusty finishing. The helmet is wearable and features a movable face mask, voice clips, sound effects, LED eyes, bluetooth speakers. A very impressive product! Killerbody had already showed us a similar Bumblebee Movie Bumblebee helmet last year, so we are sure this new helmet will be as impressive as the first one.
We still have no concrete information on release date, but it seems it is planned only by the Chinese market at the moment with a 1498 Yuan price tag ($226.00 approximately).
Update: Via friend site and sponsor Bigbadtoystore, we have an additional promotional image and an estimated release date by January 2021.
Watch a YouTube mirror of the promotional video after the jump as well as some promotional images thanks to Toypanic. Let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

@84OptimusPrime I think this is a great addition to TF, OP or perhaps cinema fans for the collection, and also if you have the space. I don't have the space but he looked cool enough to take a gamble on, was a good purchase. I might have to get the helmet stands now too.

Looks like they have found a few more of these and they are on preorder. I’m curious as to what your thoughts are?

Sigh, so I bought this from SHOWZ and It wasvshipped 2 weeks ago. But then. Somehow, customs didn\'t approve it, and now its being sent back to ShowZ and its been a week since I had any update-____- anyone have this issue?

Maybe more

I can only imagine how much the rest of the suit would cost if they decided to mass produce it to sell.
Easily in the 3-4k range.

The joke was about how much smaller the Knightverse characters are than their Bayverse counterparts, but the fact that it’s scaled to the suit is interesting.
GAUGE
it's to show it was made from the costume itself, which is why it's so large.
Same with their previously released Bumblebee mask.
They made a display base for the helmet as well.
Granted this one here is for the BB Helmet.

You guys seen the actual Costume this helmet was built from right?

I'm curious a) how well you can see out of it b) if the faceplate clasps around the jaw so it moves with your speech.

Imagine just saying \"One shall stand,One shall fall\" through the mask
