Gotta admit... I'm liking the cybertronian designs.
Buzzworthy Bumblebee - the "everything goes" toyline
- Thread starter Nevermore
- Start date
I love that the design team fully committed to the ridiculous-yet-screen-accurate idea of the vehicle modes being completely Cybertronian yet the robot modes having all of their Earth-mode kibble.
I can definitely see the arguments against it, but its such a bizarre, fun little feature that I really enjoy.

This comment is a trap, right?
Nope, actually, just my mistake. Meant the Studio Series one. I get forgetful as to which line a lot of figures come out in.
It is a good mold, though. I bought the Jackpot version, and it's a lot of fun.
Okay, so now we have Origin Bee and Origin Jazz. Assuming we get Wheeljack at some point, here's my weird brain association for the day:
I want Bee, Jazz, and Wheeljack figures in "Cybertron Defense" forms, ala Hot Shot, Red Alert, and Scattorshot. They have to return to Cybertron in upgraded forms to combat...something (an infestation of Deluxe Insecticons, perhaps?). It would be interesting to see those 3 reimagined in combat-dedicated forms.

You also meant the "Reveal the Shield" one. Classics had been dead some three years by the time of that figure's release.
I do indeed. Everything G1-adjacent prior to Siege kind of gets lumped into a generic "Classics" bin in my memory. Basically what people would refer to as CHUG or what have you.
(We need a TF version of this gif, or some equivalent.)
Cut that out before you wake an Old One!
A Wheeljack with a cargo space in back big enough for Origins Bumblebee? Or is that wishful thinking?
(I may have answered my own question there...)
Another Cyberverse 1-Step Changer gets a package refresh: Starscream.

Got mine as well! This and Origin BB's ability to get the G1 bot modes complete with Earth-mode kibble out of the Cybertronian vehicle modes continues to amaze me.
Sold out on PULSE, still available at Target at moment.
As much as I love Origins Bee, this Jazz has got it beat. The vehicle kibble all over Bee's robot mode definitely take it down a peg, whereas Jazz does an excellent job at hiding it. Bee's saucer-mode is mostly to blame for this, but if you're comparing robot modes alone, Jazz wins.

Now if we can just get Hovervan Wheeljack
