I was gonna skip this figure, but the more I think about it the more I kinda want one as a base for a Jurassic Park repaint. I know it's the wrong model of Jeep, but it scales nicely with JP93 and I like the mold. Dunno if I could find appropriately sized decals, though.

Waitaminute… those green windows….
It's an homage to the K-Mart "Daredevil Squad" set from DotM (which also came with a Sam Witwicky minifigure)! Crud, now I kinda want it.

This looks like an evil Bumblebee.

I'm surprised that Hasbro hasn't even thought of this yet.

This Bumblebee looks a lot cooler then other movie bumblebee figures.

I have no idea probably not that's why I say maybe.

Oh yeah, why did I forget Bee turned into a Camaro at the tail end of BBM?
So wait, you suggest that they do BBM Camaro Bee and from there we get movie-accurate VW Bee as a retool? I mean, can it work? Being able to re-shell a Camaro into a VW Beetle?
TF Hot Rod
Or a new head at the least. Cause then a 3p company would probably do it. I'd also take a Swindle. I wish they would do that along with other repaints. And if the rumor of a DOTM leader Warpath happening (if Breakaway sells) I'll be putting him probably with my SS BBM Autobots.

Making this toy into a 'Knightverse' Hound would've been pretty nifty, just give him a new head and maybe an additional shoulder cannon-thingy accessory and you'd be good to go.
TF Hot Rod
It's not terrible but next to the other newer BBM stuff we need a new one.
Maybe if they did Camaro Bee (who if they didn't redo VW Bee is the only BBM Bee left to do). They could maybe retool it to VW Bee since the robot mode is basically the same minus Camaro parts.

In hand, the shade of grey used looks really good, especially in alt mode. I think I might get this after all!
Despite its inaccuracies, and the terrifying backpack transformation, I think it's a decent figure. I don't mind the inaccuracies, because the designers were working off concept art, but I would also love a more screen accurate figure.

OMG, please.
It boggles my mind that we still haven’t gotten a Studio Series VW Bee that actually looks like what we saw in the final movie.
The OG's legs are way too skinny and (more obviously) he did not have the door wings in the movie. Use that door plastic to thicken his legs or something! I don't know!

Hound. This should have been Hound. That is all.

The missed opportunity here is Jurassic Park colors to go with that box set.
I personally really like the Jeeplebee tooling (especially after I tightened the joints with a little floor polish) – very expressive, it has some personality to it in the stance, etc.
This all-grey deco leaves a lot to be desired, but I don't have to buy it either.

I have the OG version of SS57, and I can confirm that it goes well with LEGO minifigures.

N.E.S.T. means Never Ever Sell This

Yeah, I want to get some characters that can be used as Autobot Drones in Studio Series. NEST Bee still kind of works, but it would be even better if it have that masked head sculpt.
TF Hot Rod
It would make for a good Beachcomber, Swindle or Hound.
I hope get a new VW Bee cause that figure really needs an update. Whether it's a retool of this mold or a new mold.
