Artist Ken Christiansen, via his social media channels, have shared images of his concept art of the Transformers Buzzworthy Bumblebee Fangry.
This figure was included in the Target Exclusive Buzzworthy Bumblebee Worlds Collide 4-pack. We have a look at the early idea of both alt and robot modes, basically a retool of Titans Return Grotusque. It’s good to notice that a gun was originally considered for this figure, but it was not included in the final product.
See the images after the jump and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!

I think so, given Horri-Bull could be retooled from Weirdwolf or Skullcruncher. Squeezeplay does pose a bigger problem.

Wonder if there's a chance of us ever getting the other Destron Headmaster Jrs (well the Hasbro characters they shared molds with but it makes no difference to me.) We have the heads for em

While I truly love the wolf head
I wish the robot mode head was
more stylized.View attachment 29421840

For context, my SS86 Sweep’s blast effect came with a slight bend. I was a little disappointed, but thought it looked better as a thick plume of purple smoke for thick-barreled TF firearms.

I think I can do that.

No no no, I mean as a scientific experiment. Like, you report on amount of paint loss after so many months. If you want to leave blast effects on your toys I'm perfectly fine with that. I'm just curious about things like how much paint melts off / how long it takes / other observations
Satomiblood
I’m not terribly worried. I’ve got a silver paint pen.

As emgo says: "it's your toy, display it how you wish"
Although I might be interested in what happens after a few months…

Heh, I bet this’ll make some people in the thread a little nervous.View attachment 29421433

Thanks for the reminder, I was keeping it bagged with the painted green bazooka. Hope I don't have any paint damage now!

Knees on this thing are garbage.

And don't forget, that allspark is the same paint-melting material as the blast effects. If you want a WFC trilogy allspark, i recommend this 3d printed 3p version:

Yep agreed, it's not great.

The hole is molded too big so it doesn't stay on well. Plus it looks weird not being held by the hand.
The other side is actually molded to hang onto a blast effect.

The only thing the allspark has is one of the tiny holes the blast effects have. Bumblebee has one on his left arm so he can do a tucked-into arm pose like so!

I think the worst part about it is that there was no way for it to be securely held or stored by any of the figures it came with. Should’ve been molded with a 5mm peg like SS86 Kup’s energon treat dispenser.

Agreed. Only reason I bought it. Wish we could have gotten a gun with him though.

I think i lost that allspark in 2 seconds it is rather useless
Satomiblood
Much better.
