Official images have been released of the new Transformers Movie deluxe-class figures. They are Stealth Bumblebee (08 Camaro Bumblebee repaint with remolded battle-mask head) and Salvage (Dropkick repaint).

See the images below.

Sparkplug and Son! That just rocks...

Frig, I hate to say this about a repaint, but BB may have to be bought twice!?!

The bot mode is so-so although I like the head, However the Alt especialy with the package backround...

...dam, thats porn-tastic!

Salvage I know has been a recent fan favorite, but for me, I'm sorry, it's a pass.

Still, if these are the official pics, I can't help but wonder if something like the warp in that front fender will lead to future problems?

Good Eye!

I'd like to see a clear shot of BBs black logo on the AS blue.

I wass going to pass on Salvage but the more I see him the more I want him

This version of Bumblbee will be harder to get then the origional 2009 version

Wow.
I'll be getting BB for sure.
I might be using him for a You Tube stop motion I'll be making.

Has anybody else noticed that Bumblebee has something that looks like Cybertronian next to the wheel arch. It's very small and in white but it's there.

So now we have 08 BB, Stealth BB and Cliffjumper, correct? Wonder which one of those would make the best Bugbite…

That says "camaro" just like on the original 08 bumblebee.

I'd do it if the mold is good enough. Beast Machines' deluxe-class Jetstorm figure was an example of this. I've bought all 5 decos I know about of this mold, and while repaints often get old fast I would get more of this mold if they're produced.

I might pick up this version of Bumblebee if I see it.

By these photos I've gotta say I'm glad I haven't picked up Dropkick yet. I'd rather have Salvage and pass on Dropkick.

Stealth Bumblebee looks nice and with the new face looks even cooler. Though I would get rid of all the yellow.

Salvage looks nice but the legs are too thin/"chicken like". Loving the "Sparkplug and Son" plug. Nice detail.

I'm pretty much sold for Stealth BB if I can't find Cliffjumper in stores

by **Chevy_Ironhide** » Sat Jan 26, 2008 9:58 pm

Sparkplug and Son, dude thats just classic. and yes, I still find Sanford and Son funny :mrgreen:

Hell-yes!

Can't wait for these two... although it'll take forever till I find them.

News Credits: 4 · by **Briggs** » Sat Jan 26, 2008 10:29 pm

I think I'll wait for premium series bumblebee :O

by **Jazzz** » Sat Jan 26, 2008 10:44 pm

hmmm...
Dropkick looked like a purple mantis.
this guy looks like a cock-a-roach.
I'll probably just display him in vehicle mode then.
Stealth Bumblebee is sex.

Or is he talking about that inverted Y shape in the paint flaws?

Realy, it does look like BB is ready to have all that black just flake off.

For "Official" pics, that doesn't boad well.

Hmmm. I found this entire wave of transformers about 3 weeks ago somewhere on the net but I didn't post it. I might post it in a sec

Bumblebee 'the stealth version' is a must buy. I really like the colors like that. In fact if they sport those colors on a real life version, I might have to seriously consider...

I am not a big fan of solid reds on figures, but I will have to get Salvage just for his incredibly smart advertising. :grin:

by **woosh** » Sun Jan 27, 2008 8:44 am

wow. these images are very convincing. extreme detail exposure makes them look much better.
salvage is one of the repaints that look better than the original (c'mon, a gigantic Con symbol on the hood and roof?).
Why couldn't they just make a head that would come with the battle mask? So that it can be slided up and down.
