I was at a Walmart looking for skids and mudflap this year. Pretty much all I saw was Bumblebees and repaints of other figures. AGHHH!!!! But luckily I found skids and the last mudflap in stock. But seriously, pretty all see is bumblebees at Target or Walmart or even Toy's R Us.
well, you have to understand that bb is the kid-appeal character, and that equals 100 toys of bb. he's like his one-man franchise becauser of his appeal.
I understand where HASBRO is coming from. Transformers are made for kids and kids like Bumble bee so Hasbro makes more of them because kids buy them. Hasbro is concerned that they make money so they will continued. 1/3 of transformers fans are collecters but 2/3 are kids so if you think about it it makes sense.
I would take your premise a bit further and say that Hasbro/Takara have gone out of their way to not provide near the fair proportion of great figures ie warpath or windcharger in comparison to more garbage like Pcc or battle bots. It is easy to tell which figures are adored by fans like me if you just keep an eye on the out of stocks on every website that deal in transformers . I understand Hasbro might make most of their money selling bumblebees or speed stars but it sure would be nice if the
i share your opinion.... i love the g1 bumblebee and the classics bumblebees but NOT THE STUPID MOVIE BUMBLEBEE!!!! movie cliffjumper is great... BECAUSE THERE NOT LIKE 6 MILLION VERISONS OF THE THE EXACT SAME TOY!
i dont mind all of the bumblebees.hes one of the kids favorites so he normally sells well.the tf fanbase makes up possibly 5% of hasbros tf sales, if even. i try to limit the bbs though
Guilty as well. Way too many bees I broke down and bought. Dotm lm limiting myself to only a couple. I suprisingly have almost just as many Optimii. Nice vid my friend
as long as you people keep buying this garbage of course hasbro's gonna keep pumping them out . i never bought anything else except g1 and g1 masterpiece ..
everything else is a money making scam ,.. STOP BUYING THIS GARBAGE =STOP SUPPORTING THEM ..
I only have one Bumblebee and that's all I need. I'm tired of Bumblebee being in every two-pack that shelfwarms, and don't get me STARTED about Leader Class DOTM Bumblebee. We could've got a goddamn Shockwave, but NO.
haha like i was saying man i fully support a movie BB toy bonfire :D and geezuz the Windcharger is impossible to find and i'd go further and say that the Warpath and Wheeljack waves are becoming more and more harder to get. Anyways, DOWN WITH MOVIE BB!
I wished BB BB was the last Bumblebee to end all Bumblebees. It should have? I mean do we really need a leader, supreme and ultimate bumblebee when we could be getting better figures suited for that size class.
The transformers market is waaay to flooded with BB. If you are a collecter investing in creating a collection BB is the last one you want to get, he's worthless, just too many on the market. Hasbro is using BB to get young kids to start collecting. I maybe have 5 or 6 total movie BBs out of the dozens that are out. Great vid man, liked.
true that there has been more than enough repaints out there of BB i only have 2 BB's the 1976 camaro and the BB that has a blue see thru blade and thats it i had enough after that and i do agree with you clint Wincharger has not been put out in shelves where i live heck i even traveled 30 minutes to the next town to check 2 Toys R us stores and nothing there
@32145spiderman "The least Hasbro can do is repaint a "NEWER" BB figure into Cliffjumper." I'm aware of the cliffjumper repaint from the first movie, but how exactly am I supposed to get, hmmm?
hasbro assumed that bb was popular because he was the best mold of the 07 movie line. That by far doesn't make it good. There are enough bumblebees to fill an ocean now.
so far i only have one 70's, 80's movie bumblebee and one of the newer movie bumblebee from the 1st movie line. soon i will be buying the battle blades bb and that will be it for the 2nd movie line for bumblebee. when the 3rd movie line comes out i might get 1 bumblebee from that line but i dont know yet if i will.
nto to be a devils' advocate here, but, as nemesispredaking said, the kids love bumblebee, they loved him from the moment he took charge of Sam in the 2007 movie. this led to Bumblebee being saturated in other TF media. I'd be willing to guarantee you that if Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman (the writers of the movies (and TF:Prime), had written in a different character in place of bumblebee, we'd be having the same issue now, but with that character.
@zizzlerizzle8707 It's just how things are done by big companies. There's always gonna be people who are upset over this, but those people, such as yourself Clint, can choose to not buy and Movieverse Bumblebee toys. Heck, i only have 2: the original 1976 camaro BB and HFTD Battle Blades bumblebee.. Hasbro can't cater to all the subgroups in the fanbase all time.
Problem is, kids love BB & kids are the core market for Hasbro. That's one of the reasons I think the DOTM line has been "dumbed down" & given more "play value".
Parents don't want to spend money on toys that are to complicated, that kids won't play with. The past 4 xmas's, My wife's cousin's kid (he's 8) has gotten movie line toys & every Xmas. i have had to TF it for him & after a week he never plays with it again, because he can't TF it.
Frankly put the last few years I have gained a severe doubt on the marketing devision of hasbro, to the point of expecting that there are people active in it who actually want the Transformers line gone.
I have bought the two original Bee molds of 2007 and the legends, since then not a single one.
Sadly, Bumblebee is now the 'figurehead' of transformers.
i had one which was that two pack with sound and gave it to my gf but the only one ill have is that ballt ops one thats it and maybe the humanallince one lol
Dude, we're the same age. I got HA Bumblebee and that's it. I totally agree. I like the movies and the toys, but they are really hurting the rest of theTF lines. I'm so lucky I got the last PCC Heavytread online. Fat chance finding him or windcharger at retail
