Weibo user Notrab is at it again with his slow reveal of the Bumblebee Evolution Three Pack. The user posted an image of the three toys in car mode, but only showing the back of the cars. It at least confirms which molds are being used, which we previously deduced. Let us know in the boards if that is enough for you to distinguish any differences from the previous releases.

I'm currently on the same state as the reviewer after this vid.
I planned to resell the WFC prime as I already have the original, but damn, it looks so damn good in this video.. I'll probably keep it.

That tribute leader prime. I wish it had the sword too, and I agree it is a great mold. I absolutely love it.

There's more! Directly from the floor at San Diego Comic Con 2017, site owner Seibertron is providing us images of the display area at the Hasbro booth - featuring so far some older reveals from existing toylines. In this post, we cover the Transformers Tribute toyline! Covering 'evolutions' in old design and new, featuring older and newer incarnations of the same character, we see the likes of Optimus Prime in his 2007 Leader class toy (but nothing on the deluxe 2pack we have already seen in stores).
These are only the initial images, of course, expect the full Seibertron.com treatment as the event continues across the weekend, with more toy images, the Hasbro Breakfast Press event Thursday morning, panel coverage on Friday and Saturday, and follow-ups with official images and more!

Looking forward to see clearer images of that '07 Optimus. I don't think he'll be prettier than the stellar Premium version though.

The sought after Transformers Tribute Optimus Prime Evolution set, featuring a Titans Return Orion Pax, has now been found on Amazon. And not just Amazon.com, but Amazon Japan as well. While the Japanese listing is a preorder, the American listing is now live and you can purhase this Prime eligible set for $29.99. This was brought to our attention by RodimusConvoy13. Will any of you be getting this set? Let us know in the forums!

While we do have a video review for this set - from the Transformers Tribute toyline - fellow Seibertronian ExciKaiser has been nice enough to acquire a set and provide a pictorial review of the two versions of Orion Pax / Optimus Prime, both reusing previous molds, but only one with some changed details! Find out more below.
ExciKaiser wrote:Mailman just delivered them :
Not sure if the box picture is still necessary as everybody has saw it, but..
The Two guys together.
It's really a strange set. One of the most detailled and complex Generation Deluxe, with ... ok not the worse, but at least the most simplistic looking and less detailled of TR line.
They don't match at all.
Time for comparison with their counterparts :
VS T30th Orion Pax :
So in the end ?
I initially planned to resell the WFC Prime as I already had the original.
Except now I have it, I think I'll keep it. I can't choose which one is the best. I like the more vivid colors, as well as the neon blue instead of neon pink.
It's the same conflict as between the orginal Supercon armada Prime and the Galaxy force vivid repaint.
For Orion Pax, I decided to prefer him to Kup because of the head before even buying it.
Now I got it, I'm a bit deceived by this head (the T30th was more detailled aven if smaller), but it's still far better from the Kup's one.
The plastic remains the same, whic means this strans porous-looking cheap plastic. Strange considering the WFC got the same high grade plastic as the first release.
And he is as floppy as Kup..
Oh and if you need one more reason to prefer Orion instead of Kup :

I think the Prime definitely looks better than the original release. The Pax just looks awful to me. No redeeming features whatsoever.
I think I'm tempted to buy it if cheap just to have a look at how the Prime transforms as I've not played with that mold and am curious and dunno if I'd keep it or sell it on. I'd just sell the Pax right away.

In fact, that's it, since my post/review, the new one replaced the original on my shelves.
He is correct compared to other titans return.
Not the best, but correct.
Putting him on the same box was really unfair. Even the FOC prime for the same era would look bad next to the WFC.

Yeah the newer one just has better contrast with that bolder red and darker grey particularly on the chest. That appeals to me much more.
I don't really like the Kup figure as is though the Takara one fixes a lot of the issues I have with it such as the arms.

These are technically his G1 incarnation since the back of the box calls him a data scientist and both it is supposed to show his evolution (as said in the back). So yeah, this is G1 Prime.

Yeah, I know, it's Crosshair, but just LOOK at him and tell me you agree that it's G1 Orion Pax with the wrong name and bio. The overall shape and colors are too perfect to be a coincidence.

We knew we would be getting a Bumblebee movie three pack for a while but we never had official images, and we weren't sure what line it was under. Well official images have surfaced up on the Snakas blog and we can see that this three pack is also part of the tribute line, which is an Amazon exclusive in the US. We also see the really cool box which has a window showing a garage scene. The words "Bumblebee and the Hive" can be seen on the packaging.

That packaging is great, mold choices less so. I liked the original '07 Bumblebee, but it really is high time we got a more accurate rendition of that design. High Octane Bumblebee is nice, and I like that he's based on a classic Camaro that everybody liked, but still not an inspiring mold choice. And TLK Bumblebee...ech, not a fan. All those hollow bits and that hideous grey plastic.
Granted, I'm not sure what molds I would have chosen as all the good Movie Bee molds were released fairly close together and with similar alt modes, but there's a fair few really good ones (07 Concept Camaro, HFTD Battle Blade, the DOTM mold and its wonderful gun, heck, even Nitro Bumblebee for originality's sake) and these seem like some of the more...forgettable molds.
Granted, I'm not sure what molds I would have chosen as all the good Movie Bee molds were released fairly close together and with similar alt modes, but there's a fair few really good ones (07 Concept Camaro, HFTD Battle Blade, the DOTM mold and its wonderful gun, heck, even Nitro Bumblebee for originality's sake) and these seem like some of the more...forgettable molds.

Sorry, but I'm kind of a car need too and cannot ignore this classic mistake. It's a beat up 76 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1. Just had to say.

It's fine. Hasbro can never decide what to put on the package, as they have it labeled wrong here too. I'd be quick to point out if they messed up a Japanese make/model/year, not so much on American vehiclesCybertronius Primus wrote:Sorry, but I'm kind of a car need too and cannot ignore this classic mistake.

The packaging looks like a stile out of the mid 00's. Needless to say I like it a lot more than some current styles.

I'm begging to think some great evil has threatened Hasbro with killing them all if they actually paint their movie figures, the molds are ok, the paintjobs SUCK, I expected an exclusive to ACTUALLY PAINT THE GOD DAMN TOYS FROM THE WAIST DOWN PROPERLY.
Sorry, but High Octane Bee looks bad like that, and so does the new mold, which actually is pretty good and finally has the mini wings on the deluxe scale and remembers that Nitro Bee had the wheels inside the ankles, something no other Bumblee other than the MP has gotten right.

That box is purdy but the price is sure to be absurd. So I'll just stick with the new Bee when it come out by itself.

That is a pretty awesome set! But I have 2 of the 3 already, so I'll pass

On my end, I got rid of so many toys that I see no point of getting a batch like these. I'll try to limit my purchases on only relevant Transformers from now on.
