Ultimate Edition Bumblebee

Written by Darren 'Starscream' Jamieson on October 15, 2007 | Toys,Transformers movie (2007) |

I bought this bad boy in July when I was feeling pretty low and the little yellow sucker really helped to cheer me up. I’m not entirely convinced he was worth the £80 but at the time what did I care? I bought him from Argos and received a free transforming Bumblebee poster. Not bad eh?

Transforming the Ultimate Edition Bumblebee was like switching a railroad track, I imagine – I’ve never actually done that. What I mean is he’s big, the parts are big and the movements are big. He’s not your fiddly little minicon.

What I like about this Transformer is his devotion to cheese. He plays music and sounds from the film in car mode, complete with engine noises and break lights (not bad eh) and it robot mode he talks to you, getting quite cranky if you ignore him. I’m not imagining it, he is voice activated, it says so on the box. What I wasn’t prepared for was when I took my eye off him to read my comic he bloody well shot me!

Yeah, he aimed his gun right at me and bang, right in the face.

Don’t leave Bumblebee alone with your pets, it could get messy.

Buy him here.

The last major territory to receive Transformers in the cinema was Japan. The Transformers toy creators and Movie advisors (Takara) will have to also wait the longest for the DVD, but it looks like the wait will be rewarding.

The first is the standard 2 disc special edition being released all over the world, the second is the transformable packaging, also with the 2 discs and third is the HD DVD version. There is also a listing for a “special” edition, but not details have been revealed. Expect some super boxset at a very high price.
