Thanks to 2005 Board member ApocalypseThruster for giving us the heads up of his sighting of the new Transformers Bumblebee Cyberverse Adventures Scout Class Repacks at US retail.
These figures are re-releases of previous Cyberverse Scout class figures with the new the new Cyberverse Season 4 packaging. We had only see some stock images of these figures back in July, and now Optimus Prime, Megatron, Grimlock and Ramjet were spotted at Mission Valley Target in California.
Happy hunting!
Metro Prime
There are nearly complete waves of other transformers that had horrible distribution and limited stock that most of us would love to see a second release of, but not these.
I've got Wheeljack and Windblade simply because there were no deluxes to be had at the time.
These are crippled transformers. My kids don't care for them and infact, prefer the Gen 1's I occasional let them play with more.
Whomever approved these designs didn't do enough research I guess.

Now, I\'m open to some Gimmicks (Like the Autorollers, plunger missles, water squirters, combiners, triple changers, etc.), but this has to be one of the worst figures based gimmicks ever created! They\'re not fun, and they rely on the same old spring loaded weapon gimmicks to look good! I know these have been around for 3 years now, but they\'re not loved, and they won\'t be again! They\'re completely uninteresting!

I'd buy a Scraplet if they'd reissue it. Ither than that I find these half formers a waste of plastic.

Beat the dead horse harder. Nobody wanted these last time, nobody wants them now, not even little kids.
Metro Prime
No idea, because my kids don't like them either. They're confused as to why they don't transform the rest of the way.
Well, the 5 year old kinda likes them, to be honest. They all like the Tiny Turbos better.

i bought one on clearance last time , fully knowing this … and I’m still salty!!!
but there must be a demographic/market for these…. cuz repack! or warehouse issues?
ApocalypseThruster
Yep.
gabumon
these are the ones that transform half way right?
Chrono
My house is better stocked than all the Targets and Walmarts in the area.
Paladin

Stealth Force Bumblebee is a redeco of this figure:

Which in turn is technically a re-release of this one:

Except that one was never released anywhere to my knowledge.

I definitely never saw that Bumblebee in stores, granted I'm a bad metric because there's like 17 Transformers toys in a 10 mile radius here.
autobot prowl
Yay, more of the same crap figures that didn't sell well the first time.
Chrono
I feel like I have, but I’m not confident enough to stake my life on it.
Fc203
Im pretty sure ive seen that one at retail
Wait nevermind im probably thinking of the other scout bumblebee with the stinger missiles
Nevermore
So I just realized that apparently Stealth Force Bumblebee has never been sighted at US retail:

He has been found in Australia and Germany, though.
Metro Prime
I've seen them, but since they're not new I've not paid them any attention.

Beastbot X
Dang, I wish they'd include that Stealth Force BB repaint that was supposed to come out last year but never did…
