New Studio Series N.E.S.T Bumblebee revealed, basically being a redeco of Offroad Bumblebee in N.E.S.T Colours and given a running N.E.S.T. guy as well.

There is that name typo on the box, and on the Pulse product page each of the images has a disclaimer that spells "Product" wrong.
I don't know what the rush was with this, as it hasn't been leaked (or mentioned that I can even recall), and isn't a new mould or character to make a fuss about.
Aaaaand... there appears to be 3 new-Movie Deluxe toys in this wave, and the other one that is so far known (SS-79) is another Bumblebee that isn't a new mould either, which is even more boring for this wave.
As noted by others on another fansite, NEST didn't exist in the Bumblebee Movie era of the 1980s, as it was Sector 7 until 2007, when it was then disbanded and NEST was created... so with the typos and the impossibility of a NEST Bumblebee vehicle existing in the Bumblebee Movie era, the whole thing stinks of an April Fools Joke.
It would have made more sense if it had been a sandy coloured Jeep (the one that Bumblebee scanned looked to be sandy coloured) with a Sector 7 logo on it, as it was in their training ground, so would have been one of their vehicles.
And they couldn't even give us a new figurine... it's just the Sam figurine from the SS-74 ROTF Bumblebee.
The product page says it is for April 4th.
On a related note, from the previous 77 Studio Series toys, the redeco toys that weren't really characters or forms in the Movies...
09 - Thundercracker
17 - Shadow Raider
23 - KSI Sentry
43 - KSI Boss
And I would also include, the WW2 Bumblebee and Hotrod were both the wrong alt-modes.
Would 48 Parks Megatron count as a non-movie SS figure I wonder.
Even though the prefix refers to a non-movie element, the character and its two modes are in one of the movies.Quote:

Except for Thundercracker, the other 3 were based off generic bots in Age of Extinction, so they kinda were characters m/forms, even if they didn’t have a name.Quote:

I ordered one, just to see if and when it gets shipped. (the product page says it was supposed to be released December 1st).
Apparently this grey redeco Bumblebee is supposed to be released next month (a toystore in HK has stock), so if it is being released by Amazon Australia we might see it released here soon.
Official toy images now out.
