Can't wait. ;)
I am very interested to find out the size? Will BB be taller than Frenzy/Rumble
Can't say I doubted BBTS. They're pretty reliable with these things.
Should be the same size the art feather one i think .. just a little shorter then prowl ... cant wait to see the actually figure ...Quote:

Back to reality. Is it just me or is this 'sneak peak' sooooo underwhelming. TakTom cut the crap & give TF fans real prototype pictures. Better yet, Wheeljack (MP-20) rather than Bumblebee.
I'm hoping that he comes with some cool accessories like maybe Chip Chase and/or Sparkplug. If he's a smaller vehicle but listed at the same price then fingers crossed there will be some extras.
Please, be a super-deformed Beetle!Quote:

Pic is fake.
no, i did look for visual confirmation but couldn't see anything and the photo wasn't great in quality either. i'm sure there will be more coming into xmas though.Quote:

Comment from FB user on Planet Iacon's post:
So it's in a thread on TFW somewhere, if you'd like to go digging.Quote:

(the name bit... in Japan, the Gen1 character is actually called "Bumble", so a JP Masterpiece of Gen1 Bumblebee would not be called Bumblebee... just like Sideswipe is Lambor, Optimus is Convoy and Ravage is Jaguar, etc).
The TFW posting, showing the original frame from an old video that was photoshopped.
It's Tokyo Toy Show of last year, with the Bumblebee stuff shooped in.
I called "BS" when Seibertron posted it on Twitter and I'm glad to see that I can continue to trust my gut instincts. :cool:
If ANYTHING is going to be shown regarding upcoming Masterpiece figures and from an official source? - It's going to come from Shogo Hasui himself. ;)
(So I'll remain steadfast in my belief that BBTS & other retailers cannot be considered reliable 1st-hand info sources :))
I don't really care about real or fake news, I have to see the product, that's all I actually care about. In fact without seeing the product is the deal breaker for me whether I want it.
And whether or not Bumblebee comes with headphones. :pQuote:

Whereas Wheeljeck should be a straight up convert which I think it would look nice.
I am definitely thinking Hound, Jazz and Mirage would be on the mp cards.
I think this would be pretty good for the minibots scale. (Cubex - Engineer Huff)Quote:

without doubt one of my favorite scenes of all time.
Wait, what were we talking about? oh yeah, I read the title to this thread and thought there was already a KO bumble bee confiirmed and I nearly had to change my pants (and not in a good way).
I am a little surprised we haven't heard anything more about these From Takara unless they are holding out till after Smokescreens release so they have something to talk about next year.
Well they have got the big announcement planned for the 12th of Nov
(I think that's when they said, don't quote me) on who the winner of the Fan's Choice Poll was.
It'd be a perfect time to reveal the next actual toy too.
for scale looks good but, I guess is wait and see. Would be expensive if that's the size for same price.Quote:

Plus the differences inherent from the fact his whole design is based off the Penny Racer deformed look, so it's going to be tough to visually reconcile.
I expect (or hope) he'll have a second face at least, mimicking the G1 toy. If they do that, I think I would have to buy two.
Well, that escalated quickly. :(Wish we'd get some confirmation soon. I'd really like to get an MP of this guy. Fingers crossed for some prototype pics. ;)
Chimungmung website states MP Bumblebee will be available on 12th Feb. What caught my eye was MP Wheeljack release date being 20th November!!!! Yet there hasn't been actual confirmation of these 2 MPs, or has there??? Also, MP Smokescreen is stated as 20th November release as well (not mid December). Is Chimungmung right or balone?
From a G1 cartoon scale point of view, looking at the comparison between Bluestreak and comparing to the photo, that scale is at least a head too tall for Bumblebee, Gears & WindchargerQuote:

Mid thigh'ish, or a bit below, but thats pretty close. Human characters were scaled to roughly Prowl's & below Prime's knees & to Bumblebee's midsectionQuote:
