A Chevy Camaro =/= a Ford Mustang.

Terrorcon

But why? Why "Terrorcon" and and not "Predacon" ?

Because predcons are known as evil beasts and they arent the villains in this film. Instead, the villains are a group of 3 bots that used to be from different factions and came together to make their own called the Terrorcons. Their leader is Scourge.

Do I sense fanfic head cannon guessing here? Well, mine was that the terrorcon's relation to beasts is their robot mode, their designs will be animalistic, the original scourge had dragon wings and claws.

Whether it's Kenobi's antics on Tatooine before A New Hope, or the tale of Chewbacca's crossbow, or the life story of Leia's hair stylist, or what Bumblebee did on Earth before he met Sam, I have no interest in stories that took place beforehand - because we already know from the original movies how it all ends.

But yeah, the specific Camaro is a direct result of the 2007 movie.

And honestly, the Bay-Bee haters sound like old men yelling at clouds. It's been 15 years already. That Bee is now the nostalgic Bee for a whole new generation of adults.
If I find some more Geewhiner crying like a baby about Bay-Bee, I'll call for the nurse so that they get wheeled back into the nursing home.

Did a quick search and the term goes as far back as 2007 (on this board, at least).

There's no fanfiction there, it was what was said a while ago. Don't forget there's a more well known Scourge from the Robots in Disguise 2001 cartoon oh and the G1 con I guess

Meanwhile the kids they're marketing to are saying, "MORE BUMBLEBEE, I LOVE HIM!!!!" and we get an entire line of exclusives featuring the guy at Target. You may not like him, and that's your right, but he's wildly more popular and lucrative than G1 Bee will ever be.

There's a reason why Hasbro tried to upgrade/update G1 Bee into this:



And why most modern versions of Bee for the various TV series look more like Camaros than Beetles since 2007.

EVERYTHING

And for me, 2007 Bumblebee is and forever will be my first Bee and my favorite Bee. He's one of my favorite characters across all transformers period. He was only beat by 1 day by voyager 2007 Megatron as my first toy too, so both of those designs/toys/characters hold very special places in my heart.

Hence, 2007 was not a mistake. Without it, I'd be on a marvel fan site and would not be here.

I don't know what would have been, but I'm glad things went the way it did.

The movies themselves may have been so-so, but the designs and characters were memorable enough to launch a whole new generation of Transformers that lasted for LONGER than G1!
