Via Transform Element on Weibo we can share for you the first prototype images of the new TE-02 Bumblebee Movie VW Bettle Bumblebee for your viewing pleasure.

Transform Element is bringing a very promising take on Bumblebee as seen in his first solo movie. The robot mode looks movie-accurate (specially the back) and highly detailed. We still have no concrete information on scale, price or release date yet, but be sure to stay tuned with TFW2005 for new updates.

Thanks to 2005 Boards member Brave Magnus for reporting that the Transformers Cyberverse Ultimate Class Optimus Prime & Bumblebee are out in Argentina.

These big and easy-to-transform toys were spotted at Kinderland stores in Ramos Mejia, Buenos Aires. It’s good to see new toys at shelves, but they are priced not-so-economic $86.00, which is not a great price for the toy market in the area.

Additionally, the new Rescue Bots Mega Mighties Hot Shot was also found at the same store.

Happy hunting!

Courtesy of Polygon.com we have our first official images of the Transformers x Ghostbusters MP-10G Optimus Prime Ecto-35 Edition.

The figure is our good-old MP-10 Optimus Prime mold with a special deco inspired by the Ghostbusters franchise, including other great details like a new ghost-trap accessory that can be mounted on top of Roller and a cool Slimer figurine!

We also have a clear look at the great packaging that resembles the iconic Ghostbusters proton pack! You can even carry it in your back.
