Transformers Prime Vehicon Deluxe Series 3 Close-Up

Bumblebee Transformers Prime First Edition Review Deluxe Action Figure (Hasbro)

As a kid, my favorite Transformer was Bumblebee. So it always brought a smile to my face to see a new post-G1 Bumblebee toy, be it the gold-metallicized G2 Bumblebee, totally souped-up Gobots Bumblebee, or nostalgic Classics Bumblebee. But in …
