New DOTM Galleries: Bumblebee and Starscream

The Bumblebee in robot mode in the last pic is slightly mistransformed: the doors on his back are supposed to have the blue windows up.

Don't the DOTM toys come out tomorrow, or am I wrong?

Great galleries. That Starscream is still a pass for me, though. The HFTD Leader is my ultimate SS Can't wait for DOTM toys. I feel like the only one who wants to buy almost every figure lmao. Does anyone know if Wal-Mart will for sure have 'em on the pegs at midnight if I go??

I went to walmart and found a shitload of DOTM stuff. I popped on Starscream, Crankcase, voyager Megatron and got the last Shockwave.

Passed on Ratchet, Skids, Bumblebee, and didnt get Roadbuster because every one had a pant flaw somewhere.

Passed on voyager Optimus, Ironhide, and that new helicoptor autobot. Also saw HA Stealth Bumblebee and HA Black skids and they had one of those Astronaunt voyager Optimus with the moonbuggy repaint and a shit load of cyberverse stuff.

It's not mistransformed. I put the windows down in some of the pictures to demonstrate that you didn't need to have the windows up. I think it looks better with the windows down, personally.

As you can see, the pictures of Bumblebee prior to that image have the windows up per the instructions.

Yes, tomorrow is the official release date for the DOTM toys.

SHI*! KNOW WHAT IM GONNA DO? gonna split the kibble on BB's back and makehis much needed, easy to add for hasbro, his extra pair of wings! that kibble is made from the parts that make his extra wings too so...... well, some one needs to do it!

I really like this bumblebee mold after looking at the picture gallery, but I much prefer the head mold for the battle blade bumblebee, Im going to also pass on star scream and wait for thundercracker.

Def getting both these guys. I've bolstered my Starscream and Thundercracker count recently with Generations TC and G1 SS and TC, so DOTM SS and TC are a must for me. I'd love to see a G1-style repaint of the ROTF Voy and DOTM Starscreams.

And I just like Bumblebee, what can I say?

My local TRU got these guys in today, but won't put them on shelves until tomorrow. I'll be there first thing in the morning

I prefer the head on Battle Blade Bumblebee, but overall I think the DOTM 'Bee might be the best so far. I was surprised how much I liked him.

Can you swap the head and arms on DOTM Bumblebee with those from Battle Blade Bee? If so, then this is a buy for me.

How did you keep bee's mechtech extended?

Thats what I want to know also, short of gluing it there. I got BB and Crankcase yesterday, and BB's gun is very plain with no paint apps, in the compact mode.

I cheated by using a tiny clear rubberband that we use for putting our daughter's hair in a ponytail/pigtails. You can find those rubberbands in the baby/toddler section at stores like Target. There's a $2.50 hair ties package that comes with a ton of rubberbands for hair and colored ties as well.
