SWEET AND SOUR PRIMUS! Please tell me this monstrosity is an unfinished prototype; there are practically no paint apps and what there are are vomit-inducing. I know Hasbro's trying to get as much out of Bumblebee as possible, but this looks like someone just upended a bottle of silver paint on an unpainted Cannon BB and called it a day.

Yeah, it reminds me of that Walmart exclusive black repaint of Super Speedbreaker...that was still all Hot Roddish red underneath in his robot elements. This Bee begs the same question: Why couldn't they just change the whole color scheme? Did they have to use leftover parts?

No wait, he REALLY looks like the Energon Energon Hot Shot repaint, which more or less featured an exterior silver coat for his car elements, leaving his robot mode still too yellow. Or, yeah, Bluestreak...if he wet 'em; no offense to Streakfans. It's just with his pants the only yellow part...

Worst figure of the year. Not even going to see what the other 9 months bring.

The eyes,
They see,
One of those weird “take the letters and rearrange the letters and have a new set of words”, and that’s how I describe this toy!

Seriously, that makes Skids and Mudflap look good and I happen to despise those two fugly little buggers. That is quite possibly more hideous than ANY G2 color combination ever conceived. WTF was Hasbro thinking??? #-o

DOTM is in a really close race with Pretenders for being the worst Transformers line ever. How ugly can they get?

I'll be shocked if the sales for the third movie aren't at best disappointing for Hasbro.

Since he is Cannon Bumblebee's redeco, I gotta ask: is the Camaro-nose moveable or does he have those visible open cuts for decorating only?

'Cause on pictures it seems liftable, but on Robot-mode pics it always the same.

Otherwise, I'm not so bothered by this, only the big symbols on the doors(so much of Robots in Disguise), red headlights(if he were Camaro Black Concept, i'd live with it) and green lower lights and the green plastic windows.
And again the eye-miscolouring(C'mon, it should be small blue dot in the middle, rest is black).

The cuts in the front are for a hinge the head sits on, the ones on the side are decorative to offer visual continuity with the 2008 Camaro Concept mold. In short, the front is one solid piece.

All but one Deluxe version do. The only one that doesn't is RotF (Preview) Bumblebee.
