    From the title I thought this would have something to do with Classic Pretender Bumblebee

    I'm not a fan of unlicensed stuff, but I gotta say that is one SWEET looking toy! I like how they've decided to do something that HasTak will never* be able to do - and that's using a VW Beetle alt mode for Bumblebee! I'm not interested in getting this toy since it's unlicensed, but I must admit that I am thoroughly impressed.

    *since Porsche/VW won't allow their vehicles to be used in toy lines that are 'associated with war' - the only VW TF we've had since G2 that was a Beetle was Disney Label Donald Duck

    Just to avoid confusion:

    It's this an upgrade kit for the official Classics Bumblebee mold ('re-shelling') or is it a KO version of the 'unshelled' official mold with a new VW Beetle shell instead of the Hasbro hatchback?

    That's cool!
    I'm not a fan of KO stuff but would seriously consider this if released.

    Yeah that fact is really disappointing, I'd love a MP Jazz (G1 style) but it's probably never going to happen

    Hoping this comes out as an upgrade kit. I would rather have the core component of the figure coming from official Hasbro plastic. Although the downside would be that eBay scalper's prices on Classics Bumblebee will implode on its currently over-inflated average.
    Would not mind building it myself, after getting that one TF Prime Arms Micron Terrocon Cliffjumper, I quite enjoyed putting together my own minicon (despite being skeptical about it at first).

    You know what? I would so want a modernized 'G1 style' Pretender shell that could fit in Classics Bumblebee

    Would you be able to use a RTS Bumblebee with it?
