:''Megatron is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|2007 movie franchise]] in the [[Live-action film series|live-action film]] [[continuity family]]. He is often referred to as Lord Megatron. Known to humans as both "The Ice Man" and "The Mega-Man" and more formally as [[Non-Biological Extraterrestrial|N.B.E.]] - 01''

[[Image:ROTFMegatron Defiance2.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Build me an army worthy of Mordor!]]
The [[brother]] of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] as well as former [[Lord High Protector]] and co-ruler of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], '''Megatron''' is vicious and extremely powerful, single-minded in his goals, straight forward and brutally direct in his attempts to seize those goals. He is all "blunt force" in contrast to [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream's]] penchant for deceit and trickery. On the downside, Megatron tends to become so obsessed with the object of his desires that he can ignore "secondary" matters, glaring flaws in his plans (otherwise, he likely wouldn't have melted into ice-cold arctic water after being white hot from falling through Earth's atmosphere, and spent ten-thousand years as a [[wikipedia:popsicle|popsicle]], and even crippling injuries in pursuit of the coveted item. Trying to talk Megatron out of blindly going for his goals is useless. He will risk his world, his troops, and even his own [[spark]] to achieve his goals. These things do not matter to Megatron. Even the destruction of the [[Autobot]]s is a secondary concern. In Megatron's cerebral processor, all that matters is the [[All Spark]].

While [[Megatron (disambiguation)|some]] merely dislike or disregard organics (since they have a tendency to get in their way), Megatron feels a violent hatred towards them and seems to view them as only slightly above a virus, with him as the cure. This may be due to having spent decades as their prisoner, but his hatred is still very extreme. If there was no All Spark, it is not that big a stretch to think he'd have come here anyway, just to cleanse one more planet of its infection.

[[Image:Defiance1 Megs Prime argument.jpg|left|350px|thumb|"Know your place boy!"]]
Millions of years ago, Lord High Protector Megatron was the supreme commander of the Cybertronian defense forces and firm leader of all of Cybertron, protecting their world against all hostile threats. When Commander [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] returned from his patrol in the [[Eshems nebula]], [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus]] was reporting on the science sector's continuing excavation of the site near the temple at [[Simfur]] and the unusual pulse waves that the [[All Spark]] had been emitting ever since work began. At the excavation site, while Optimus and the scientists were concerned with disturbing the ancient artifacts, all Megatron cared about was whether these relics might provide the same revitalising energy as the All Spark. He was nettled when Optimus asserted the science division's dominion over all scientific and archaeological discoveries and reminded his junior that it is the defence force that protects this world and demanded to be informed of all possible threats from the excavation's findings. When Optimus dared remind Megatron of the military's treatment of such discoveries as hostile, Megatron told Optimus that when ''he'' tries to be the leader of Cybertron, he can make those decisions, not now. When a mysterious relic was discovered, Megatron ordered it removed at once, a demand that Optimus disagreed with. Just as the pair were about to launch into another argument, Cybertron was under attack. Megatron had the relic moved to his quarters under the guise of protecting it from the invading aliens. Arriving to find [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] and [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]] seeking cover within the temple of Simfur, Megatron chastised their alleged lack of courage before he was hit by an alien tank vehicle. After destroying it, he told Starscream to keep Optimus' team out of the military's way and staggered back to his quarters in the capital of [[Trypticon (Movie)|Trypticon]]. Drawn towards the relic, he ignored his injuries and scraped away at the layers of debris encrusting it before losing consciousness. {{storylink|Defiance issue 1}}

{{note|[[Defiance]] changes the past relationship between Megatron and Optimus Prime as previously seen in IDW's Prime Directive prequel and heard in the first movie opening, where they ruled side by side as equals. As presented here, Defiance establishes Optimus Prime as merely the leader of the Cybertronian science sector, and an underling to Megatron.}}

[[Image:Movie Megatron Targetcomic sure.jpg|left|150px|thumb|Sit boy, or I'll beat you to death]]
Megatron once ruled Cybertron side-by-side with Optimus Prime. For generations, the two ruled in peace. Megatron was firm, but Prime was fair, creating a nice, even balance. Sadly, he got a jonesing for the All Spark and the war started. Megatron formed an army of separatists, the Decepticons, while Prime formed his own army, the Autobots. Megatron's forces, while less noble, were more ferocious warriors. Prime eventually made the decision to launch the All Spark into deep space. {{storylink|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 1}}

[[Image:MovieMegatron Bumblebee torture comic.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Better get some ice on that.]]
During an assault on the Autobots personally led by Megatron and his hound, [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]], Megatron crushed an opponent's spark before casually tossing his corpse over his shoulder. Megatron declared that the All Spark would be his, to which Blackout assured his leader that he would make sure of it. Megatron was pleased by his minion's loyalty, but dispatched him to assist Starscream's unit in preventing Optimus Prime's reinforcements from entering Tyger Pax. He then left to meet his destiny, but it slipped from his grasp. {{storylink|Planetfall}}

When [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] stalled Megatron long enough for it to be launched into space, he tore off Bumblebee's arm and crushed his voice box, then took off into space after the All Spark. {{storylink|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 1}}

As Megatron tracked the All Spark through space, he mused about his reasons for the war and how he and his brother were not all that different, as seen by Optimus' sentencing their home to a slow death by launching the Cube into space. Locating the All Spark on [[Earth|a primitive world]], he lost contact with it upon reentry and crashes into the planet's icy northern pole. Low on [[Energon (G1)|energon]] and his safety buffers exhausted, Megatron went into stasis lock. Millennia later, [[Archibald Witwicky]], the leader of the National Arctic Circle Expedition discovered Megatron buried deep in the ice. Unfortunately, Witwicky was driven blind and insane by what he saw, attracting the attention of a mysterious group that discredited his story and seized the mysterious "Ice Man". Six years later, they foundd the Cube. {{storylink|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 2}}

In the Earth year of 1935, Megatron was moved to [[Hoover Dam]], where he would remain imprisoned, for the next seven decades. {{storylink|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 3}}

===Titan Magazines ''Transformers'' movie comic===
The All Spark had not been blindly launched into space, however - its trajectory was leading it directly towards the [[Alkaris Anomaly]], a wormhole that could potentially transport the cube to any one of an infinite number of locations in the universe. Megatron was fully capable of catching up to the cube before it would enter the wormhole, but as he passed Cybertron's moon, he found himself ensnared by an Autobot tractor beam of remarkable strength that pulled him down to the moon's surface. Enraged by the ignominy of it all, Megatron turned his weapons on the Autobots responsible, but quickly calmed down enough to realize that this was only playing into their hands, and instead ordered [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] to take his place in the battle. Megatron swooped back into space, hot on the All Spark's heels, but was unable to stop the cube from falling through the anomaly. Determined to have the All Spark's power, Megatron chose to enter the wormhole himself, only to be spat out in some far-off star system, with no trace of the All Spark. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2}}

{{note|The following events occur in an alternate timeline/continuity where Megatron won the battle of Mission City.}}

[[Image:Megatron Bumbleslap.jpg|left|350px|thumb|"*sigh* Even mindless violence seems boring today..."]]
In another reality, he defeated Optimus at [[Mission City]], killed Sam Witwicky and took control of the All Spark. He was fully linked to it and drew on its power - "It is me and I am it!" - giving him greater might and the ability to heal any wound. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 12|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 4}} After conquering an unknown chunk of Earth (including the entire [[United States of America]]) with [[Dropkick]] as his second-in-command, he used the All Spark's power to start turning Earth from an organic world into a new Cybertron. Optimus Prime lay frozen in the [[Hoover Dam|old Sector Seven base]], Autobot resistance was scattered, and NATO's threat to nuke occupied America was hardly much of one. The only thing bothering Megatron was those rebels breaking into Hoover Dam... {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 9|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 1}}

Megatron personally arrived to face [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] and hunted for him, trying to bait him into appearing. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 10|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 2}} Realising the Autobot must have come with a human ally, he deliberately threatened to go after the human and thus got an emotional Bumblebee to make a defiant attack... at which point he backhanded Bumblebee into the wall and prepared to eviscerate him. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 11|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 3}} [[Image:Megatron Titan12.jpg|right|350px|thumb|Megatron's BDSM Dungeon just wasn't meeting expectations.]] He gave the Autobot a chance at a swift death if he begged for mercy, and was quite impressed when Bumblebee merely asked "that all you got?", but was less impressed when Autobot reinforcements arrived. He effortlessly smashed them aside and was about to kill [[Skyblast (Movie)|Skyblast]] when a new challenger arrived: the revived Optimus! {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 12|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 4}}

Optimus Prime got the snot beaten out of him, every attack he landed on Megatron being repaired by All Spark power. However, he distracted Megatron long enough for Bumblebee to hit him with the ''other'' thing they'd broken into the Dam for: Sector Seven's greatest weapon, a nanovirus that targeted All Spark operation frequencies. Infected, the tyrant was consumed from within by his own power and collapsed dead. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 13|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 5}}

Or so it appeared. He'd downloaded his mind into the All Spark interface module, knowing Starscream would take it and assimilate it into himself. And so Megatron was able to be a voice in Starscream's head for weeks and weeks—and finally, when Starscream had suffered a setback and wanted a plan to stop the Autobots, Megatron gave him one: to let him out... {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 22|The Decepticon Who Haunted Himself}}

With Starscream now following his orders, he had the Decepticons use both carrot (promise of truce) ''and'' stick (multiple attacks) to make the US government, prompted by [[Theodore Allen|the mind-controlled President Allen]], boot out the Autobots—and then nuke them as they left, giving the Decepticons a clear shot at reconquest! {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 23|Revolution Part 1}}

===''Ghosts of Yesterday'' prequel novel===
When Megatron came online, it was obvious that some time had passed. Not only was he encased in a primitive transport, but there were [[Humans|lifeforms]] fighting over him. Before Megatron could properly exterminate them, another crude transport crashed into his, causing a massive (but not spark-threatening) explosion. Megatron would have been pleased to know that the fire only added to his terrifying visage in the eyes of the maggots. Regaining his composure, Megatron noticed [[Phillip Nolan|an insect]] standing near him. As Megatron reached out to grab it, [[Thomas Kinnear|another insect]], this one terminally damaged, began firing crude projectiles which his body armor easily deflected. Waiting until after the creature had expended its ammunition, Megatron grabbed it in his hand, only to discover that it had packed itself with explosives, which threw Megatron to the ground when they detonated. Then, the aforementioned first insect began spraying liquid nitrogen on Megatron, causing him to go back into stasis. Unable to escape, Megatron screamed a dark vengeance upon his captors. {{storylink|Ghosts of Yesterday}}

[[Image:Megstheiceman.JPG|left|200px|thumb|When I get out you are SO DEAD!]]
Megatron eventually succeeded in tracking the All Spark to [[Earth]], where he rather embarrassingly crash-landed in the Arctic Circle and was frozen solid for thousands of years. In 1897, some 100 Earth-years before the arrival of the other Transformers, he was discovered by an explorer named [[Archibald Witwicky|Archibald Amundsen Witwicky]]. Captain Witwicky accidentally activated Megatron's navigation system and caused the coordinates of the All Spark to be etched onto the explorer's glasses. Megatron remained imprisoned in the Arctic, until the 1930s, when he was dug out by the United States government and moved to a secret [[Sector Seven]] stronghold inside [[Hoover Dam]]. In the years that followed, many modern devices (by Earth standards) were reverse-engineered from his frozen body.

In the present day, having searched the galaxy for the All Spark and being drawn to Earth, the remaining Decepticons learned of Witwicky's glasses. Through the Internet, they determined the location of both Megatron and the All Spark inside Hoover Dam. [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] infiltrated the dam and shut down the power systems, while Starscream attacked the external powerlines, resulting in Megatron's thawing out. Once again online, the leader of the Decepticons informed the worthless insects of his true name, shouting "I am Megatron!" (to clear up all that N.B.E.-01/Ice Man nonsense), randomly killed a few of them while destroying his former prison, then transformed and flew off after the All Spark again. He met up with Starscream on the outside, and, never one for pleasantries, demanded to know where the Cube was. Upon learning that the humans had moved the All Spark, Megatron berated Starscream for yet another failure.

[[Image:Movie Megatron breakout.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Mace isn't for spraying, it's for hitting.]]
After Starscream and Devastator's opening attacks in [[Mission City]], Megatron arrived, and again declared his name (he really wants people to know who he is). The Autobots were so panicked by the sight of their long lost nemesis that [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] called for a temporary retreat. Megatron blasted [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]] away when the diminutive Autobot attempted to attack, then threw him into the air before crushing him on top of a tower with his clawed talons. Jazz vainly fought on, asking if Megatron wanted a "piece", but doing little damage to Megatron. The Decepticon leader killed the Autobot by tearing him in half, callously declaring that he wanted "two".

[[Image:Movie Megatron jetmode cityfight.jpg|left|300px|thumb|Really bad case of gas.]]
As [[Sam Witwicky|the human boy]] ran off with the All Spark, Megatron ordered the Decepticons to [[Decepticons, attack|attack]]. Devastator attacked the armed insects, while Starscream and [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] fought [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] and Ratchet for the All Spark. At that moment, Optimus Prime appeared and challenged Megatron. Millennia in the ice had done nothing to lessen the animosity Megatron felt for his brother, however. Barely managing to growl out Prime's name, he transformed and flew at Prime at full speed. The Autobot leader leapt and grabbed a hold of Megatron, who slammed him into a building before flying right through a skyscraper. Both leaders landed in the middle of an intersection, but Megatron was the first to recover and leaped upon his brother, snarling that the humans were undeserving of life. Optimus Prime replied that they had the right to choose for themselves before he threw his brother off. Megatron declared that if Prime wished to defend them, he should "join them in extinction", forming his [[fusion cannon]]. Before he could fire, the Autobot leader drew his [[ion blaster]] and fired, hitting Megatron. The Decepticon leader shrugged off this attack, spun around from the momentum and fired his cannon, throwing Optimus Prime into the side of a building.

Megatron pursued the young human who had removed the All Spark from Hoover Dam, destroying everything that stood in his way. The boy ran to a dilapidated building that was the designated coordinates for a human military evacuation team, and Megatron smashed his way through, yelling that he could smell the human maggot. Starscream destroyed the helicopter intended to take the All Spark, and Megatron burst through the floor, inquiring if it was courage or fear that compelled him. Finally cornering him on a ledge, Megatron offered that if the human gave him the All Spark, the boy might live as [[Ravage (G1)|his]] [[Laserbeak (G1)|pet]]. The Decepticon leader relished the human's defiant refusal and destroyed the ledge the human was standing upon, sending the boy tumbling to the ground.

[[Image:Movie Megatron maceattack.jpg|right|200px|thumb|This would have been so much cooler if it had been a chain mine.]]
Unfortunately, the human was caught by Optimus Prime, who then tried to escape down the side of the building before Megatron tackled him and sent all three slamming into the pavement. As a nearby [[Michael Bay|human bystander]] attempted to run, the Decepticon expressed his disgust at the insect's proximity and flicked it away. Protecting the young boy, Prime declared that their war would end here and it was now just between the two brothers. Though lusting for the All Spark, Megatron decided to indulge his brother's obvious death wish, declaring that only he was in this fight. Despite Optimus Prime's best efforts, Megatron was relentless, matching the Autobot leader with blow after devastating blow until he collapsed. Adding insult to injury, Megatron informed Prime that his defense of the "weak" was the real reason he lost.

[[Image:Megatron allspark merge.JPG|left|300px|thumb|Oh, he's dead. There's no way this will make him [[Galvatron (disambiguation)|even]] [[Galvatron (G1)|more]] [[Galvatron (RID)|powerful.]]]]
The Decepticon leader turned his attention back to the human boy, but was suddenly attacked by the human fighter jets and [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]]'s ground soldiers firing sabot rounds. Optimus took this chance, striking Megatron and knocking him down. His armor a damaged, shattered mess, Megatron ignored the punishment and focused on the human boy, growling that he would kill the boy and that the All Spark was his. As Optimus Prime ordered the boy to place the All Spark into his chest, the human instead pushed it into the now-exposed [[spark]] in Megatron's chest, overloading him with energy and extinguishing the Decepticon's life force. As Optimus Prime stood over Megatron's lifeless shell, watching the light flicker out of his brother's [[optics]], he remarked somberly, yet remorsefully, that Megatron had left him no choice, and removed a shard of the All Spark from his brother's spark cavity.

Megatron's body was dumped into the Laurentian Abyss at its deepest point, along with the remains of the other Decepticons, where the near-freezing temperatures will -- [[Decepticon Headquarters|hopefully]]-- keep them dormant indefinitely. {{storylink|Transformers (2007)|Transformers}}

In the aftermath of the battle in Mission City, [[Sector Seven]] hauled away Megatron's corpse along with the other Decepticon bodies. The clandestine human organisation brought the bodies to a secret facility in the Nevada desert, with the intention of getting every bit of information they can out of the dead Decepticons before they were forced to dump them into the sea. {{storylink|Alliance issue 1}} When he arrived to oversee the burial of those who fell in Mission City, Optimus Prime noticed the surviving All Spark sliver glowed when near Megatron's body, and gave it to [[Professor Vine]] for safekeeping. {{storylink|Alliance issue 2}}

====Autobot campaign====
After arriving at Hoover Dam, Bumblebee saw Megatron and the All Spark being held in the same room, which was guarded by lasers. After bringing down the lasers, Bumblebee managed to shrink the All Spark, while under fire by Megatron. Following the Autobots to Mission City, Megatron ignominiously "flicked" Bumblebee away, then tried to grab the All Spark from Sam. Optimus Prime arrived and the two fought in the Mission City park. After Prime believed that he had destroyed Megatron, Sam handed the All Spark to Prime, but Megatron jumped into the air with his flail, making one last attempt at nailing Prime. Prime caught the flail in its path and yanked Megatron towards him, shoving the All Spark into his chest. Pretty ruthless there, Prime, pretty ruthless. {{storylink|Transformers The Game (console)|Transformers The Game}}

====Decepticon campaign====
After learning Megatron's location, Blackout and Starscream sabotaged the dam's power, allowing Megatron to thaw out and awaken. After Megatron emerged, Starscream and Blackout bowed before their Lord, who declared that they had much to do. After the Decepticons dispatched the Autobots, Megatron, hoping to draw Prime out, went on a rampage in Mission City, declaring that the city would burn beneath his feet (this means toastie toes, but he's willing to make that sacrifice). Megatron and Prime played a game of cat and mouse, with Megatron tracking Prime and Sam, until Megatron finally destroyed Prime, then merged the All Spark with his spark, becoming even more powerful in the process (...wait, what?). After decimating Earth, Megatron took the [[Abraham Lincoln|Lincoln Memorial]] as his throne, then ordered Starscream, Brawl, and Barricade to finish the planet, before going on to conquer the galaxy. {{storylink|Transformers The Game (console)|Transformers The Game}}

===''Transformers: Autobots''===
Having landed on Earth some thousands of years ago, Megatron is thought to be frozen somewhere in the Arctic. As the Autobots look for clues as to his location, they eventually arrive in the frozen desert long enough to realize the humans have found him, as well as the [[All Spark|AllSpark]] (sic). Once they hack into the communications array at the base, they find documentation leading to the Hoover Dam, where the Autobots and Decepticons race. Some wishing to free him, most hoping to destroy him, the Transformers fight over the base until the Decepticon leader is finally freed. Once out of cryo-storage, Megatron proceeds to steal the AllSpark from the Autobots and begin a destructive rampage through Tranquility, until he is finally defeated by Optimus Prime and [[Create-A-Bot (Autobot)|Create-A-Bot]]. {{storylink|Transformers Autobots/Decepticons|Transformers: Autobots}}

===''Transformers: Decepticons''===
With Megatron frozen in the Hoover Dam, the Decepticons fight to free their leader. However, as is quickly made apparent, Starscream and his young protege, a [[Create-A-Bot (Decepticon)|Create-A-Bot]], seek to eliminate their leader. This quickly changes, as Create-A-Bot is convinced by Barricade to free their commander, as Starscream is a back-stabbing bureaucrat while Megatron is a truly zealous leader. Even though both would kill you in an instant, Megatron would at least do it to your face so you could see it coming.

Once free, Megatron quickly takes the time to wipe out Jazz, who has been left at the bridge to help get rid of Megatron. After a fairly short battle, Megatron smashes Jazz into the dirt, leaving him to die. Back in Tranquility, he chases after Starscream, only to be blocked by [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]]. Once the sibling rivalry is finished, Prime is left in pieces in the streets of Tranquility.

Arriving in the Casino Strip, Megatron finds Create-A-Bot damaged and Starscream flying away. Giving chase, he attacks his traitorous second-in-command, nearly destroying him despite his awesome All Spark driven powers. Starscream uses his last breath to insult Megatron before being killed by the tyrant. Returning to Create-A-Bot's side, Megatron takes a moment to call him a weakling and a failure, completely forgetting about the fact that Create-A-Bot saved him, led him to Starscream, destroyed the Autobots, and served him more loyally than most of his other followers. Taking a moment to let this sink in, Megatron went on to tell him that the weak are made to serve the strong, then ripped the young Decepticon apart and ate his Spark. Megatron then took off into the sky with intentions unknown. {{storylink|Transformers Autobots/Decepticons|Transformers: Decepticons}}

====Legends Class toys====
[[Image:Movie Legends Megatron toy.jpg|right|180px|thumb|Just what the hell do I turn into?]]
*'''Megatron''' (Legends Class, 2007)
*''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Megatron'''
:Legends class Megatron is the smallest mainline ''Movie'' Megatron toy, and boy, does it show. Even with Megatron's relatively simple transformation sequence, the sheer simplicity of the Legends class toy means that his vehicle mode is basically his robot mode splayed out, and again, boy is it ''obvious''. His robot mode is passably accurate, if by accurate one means he is now a hunchback with wings for legs, Dustbusters for hands, and an unchanged Alien Queen-esque head design.
{{-}}

*'''Generations Legends''' (Target exclusive multi-pack, 2007)
:A Target exclusive, this four-pack of Legends Class figures contains two versions of both Optimus Prime and Megatron, namely [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Legends of Cybertron Optimus Prime]], [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Movie Legends Optimus Prime]], [[Megatron (Armada)|Legends of Cybertron Megatron]] and Movie Legends Megatron.

:A Toys'R'Us exclusive, this six-pack of Legends Class figures contains unmodified toys of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]], [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]], Megatron, [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] and [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]].

*'''Battle Jazz vs. Ice Megatron''' (Legends multi-pack, 2008)
:Ice Megatron is a, well, ice-themed redeco of Legends class Megatron, which means his black paint applications have been replaced by blue. He comes packed with yet another redeco of Legends class Jazz, this time "battle damaged".
{{-}}

====Voyager Class toys====
[[Image:Movie Voyager Megatron toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Hey, I think I'm as weird as the War Within figures!... Nah, not there yet.]]
*'''Megatron''' (Voyager Class, 2007)
*''Japanese ID number:'' '''MD-14'''
*''Accessories:'' Projectile
:Voyager Class Megatron transforms into an ice-covered version of his Cybertronic jet, with transparent blue plastic forming large portions of his vehicle mode, such as parts of his wings. This ice design is carried onto his robot mode, with his legs, shoulders and chest having some kind of 'ice' plastic covering them. With a significantly different (and simple compared to other figures of the same pricepoint) transformation sequence compared to his earlier Leader class toy, his chest frost lowers and his shoulders raise to robot mode position when you bring his lower body forward thanks to [[Automorph]] technology. He also has his fusion cannon in its entirety on his left arm. His wings feature flip-out "ice blades", and pulling on a piece in the back of his jet mode brings them forward like pincer claws. This design is remarkably similar to his Predacon- incarnation toys.

:Something interesting to note is that his feet are entirely spring-loaded, which means his foot and the two "rear toes" on each feet automatically close up when he's not standing up. Surprisingly, this helps a lot with the posing, as the feet's parts automatically position themselves for the perfect balance.
{{-}}

[[Image:Movie Voyager Premium Megatron.jpg|right|250px|thumb|I'll ask again... what the hell do I turn into?]]
*'''Megatron''' ("Premium Series" Voyager Class, 2007)
*''Accessories:'' Projectile
:One of the first figures available in the ''Premium Series'' (although not explicitly identfied on the packaging as such), Voyager Class Megatron was released exclusively at Best Buy on October 16th, 2007 alongside the North American launch of the ''Transformers'' movie DVD. Megatron has been completely redecoed, covering most of his previously grey parts with metallic silver paint and a black paint wash over the top of that. Black and gold highlights are used to offset all of the silver, while the transparent 'ice' parts are clear. These changes essentially make Megatron far more accurate to his movie appearance.

:Megatron is presented in robot mode inside a special display box similar in shape to the packaging for the Hasbro release of ''Generation 1'' ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]].
{{-}}

*'''Battle Over Mission City Megatron (Two-Pack)''' ("Screen Battles" Voyager Class, 2008)
*''Accessories:'' Projectile
:A Target exclusive [[repaint]] of Voyager Class Megatron in primarily beige and chocolate brown colors with brown paintwashes, this version replaces the ice colored translucent plastic with two shades of translucent orange to replicate a look that resembles Megatron's firey demise (or atmospheric re-entry). Unlike the previous releases, this version's wings are painted to match the body color, so they give the appearance of molten slag. This version was only available in a two-pack with a mostly unchanged Deluxe Class [[Jazz (Movie)|Final Battle Jazz]] in reference to their fight on the skyscraper featured in the film. As the colors on this Megatron are very similar to the colors on the Screen Battles version of Voyager Class [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], it might be assumed that those two sets are meant to also represent the climactic final battle at the end of the film.
{{-}}

====Leader Class toys====
[[Image:Movie Leader Megatron toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|OK, Hasbro, I will give you one more chance... TELL ME WHAT I TURN INTO!!! NOW!!!]]
*'''Megatron''' (Leader Class, 2007)
*''Japanese ID number:'' '''MD-07'''
:Leader Class ''Movie'' Megatron transforms into a silver Cybertronic assault jet. He is quite accurate to the CGI design... except for the giant mass of legs attempting (but failing) to hide under the wings.

:In robot mode, Megatron's sculpt is quite accurate, or as accurate as a toy based on his CG design can be. However, his paint decoration is quite inaccurate, with blue highlights on various parts of his body, possibly to allude to his pre-frozen state and to give a relatively monochromatic figure more color. More confusing is his jet black face, which obscures the sculpt's details and is inaccurate to the movie appearance's gunmetal.

:Megatron's right fist disconnects at the wrist to become the spiked end of the extendable "chain whip" weapon concealed within his forearm; pressing the black switch on the arm pulls the chain taut for a whipping attack. His arms also link together at the wrists to form a "[[fusion cannon]]," with the pod on his left forearm concealing the weapon's [[Automorph]]ing twin barrels, exposed by pulling a switch. His other automorph features include his wings folding up as his vehicle nosecone is moved into place, and his feet unfolding as his knees are straightened. Finally, pressing the button on his waist activates a small friction motor, which moves various torso plates and blades on his back into place, accompanied by a metallic shrieking sound and flashing yellow lights.

:Megatron's instructions summarily fail to actually tell the reader about how his gimmicks work. The whipping-action black switch for his flail is not mentioned; they do not detail how to connect the arms for fusion cannon mode; and the fact that the cannon is on a slider, allowing it to be centre-aligned, rather than sitting off to one side, is also omitted.

:There is an error in Megatron's legs, in that his left and right hip joints have been swapped for reasons unknown. Switching them allows for a slightly smoother transformation. In addition to ''that'', both of Megatron's hands have a finger misassembly. Two pieces are molded to have two fingers, while one is obviously supposed to be a thumb–however, this thumb is on the 'outside' of his hands instead of the inside. The prototype on the packaging's stock photos show the correct assembly.

:''Geez'', [[Hasbro]].

:Possibly a dropped feature [[for safety reasons]], the right fist (partly a projectile tethered to the arm) is designed to launch out of his wrist via a spring-loaded firing mechanism. However, the spring for the launching mechanism was removed, though the firing trigger remains. One can either find a compatible spring or steal the spring in his left arm fusion cannon, then place it in his right forearm, though this disables his fusion cannon-retracting Automorph.

*'''Megatron''' ("Premium Series" Leader Class, 2008)
:Premium Megatron is a redeco of the previously released Leader class Megatron. The figure is now given far more movie-accurate paint applications of black, gold, & silver. Premium Megatron also features the classic transformation sound when the chest Automorph function is activated. The original "metal shriek" sound is retained when the sound button is pressed in vehicle mode.

:In the promotional photos of the toy, this version was pictured with a new vehicle mode face cover that fit the new head better. However, this retool was apparently dropped before actual production but can still be seen on the box back photography. All manufacturing errors from the first release are still present.

:Unlike some of the early "Premium Series" toys, Premium Leader Megatron was mass-released at a variety of retailers, instead of being an exclusive to any particular store.

*'''Fusion Blast Megatron''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
*''Japanese ID number:''
*''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles
:Fusion Blast Megatron is a simple version of Megatron with dorky-looking proportions in robot mode, and it turns into an even dorkier-looking vehicle mode. The transformation sequence manages to be even more simple and non-involved than the other ''Movie'' Megatron toys by means of an Automorph feature very similar to the early Beast Wars flipchangers. Moving his back section down causes the torso to flip up, hiding the head and positioning the arms skywards. Though the figure requires a little more repositioning and folding, most of the transformation is done with a single step.

*'''Megatron''' (Robot Replica, 2007)
*''Accessories:'' Fusion Cannon
:As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] sub-line, this version of Megatron is a non-transforming action figure that hews very close to the movie's CGI model. It features joints similar to the [[Revoltech]] toys, though the elbows only turn from side-to-side, giving him extremely limited arm articulation. His forearms can be replaced with his fusion cannon accessory (or any other arm attachments from other Robot Replicas, which could lead to some fun Frankensteins).

:''Titanum'' Megatron is a die-cast metal and plastic figurine, with an accurate sculpt based on the CG model owing to the fact he doesn't need to transform. Being a figurine, he only has articulation in his shoulders, neck and waist. Megatron comes with a Movie-style Decepticon symbol display stand.

*'''Transformers Gummy Candy''' (2006)
:Made by the [[Frankford Candy & Chocolate Company]] at the behest of [[Hasbro|Hasbro's]] Cap Candy Company unit, this large Megatron-shaped [[Transformers Gummy Candy|gummy candy]] was available throughout 2006 to 2007. Also available was an [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]-shaped gummy candies.

===Battling Robots Bubble Bath===
*'''Megatron''' (2007)
[[Image:Megatron bubblebath.jpg|right|120px|thumb|"This is why I hate merchandising."]]
:Megatron's torso attaches to the bottle of bubble bath. His elbows bend, and his arms have a punching gimmick, to allow him to battle the forces of good. Pushing a lever on either side makes the respective fist punch forward. He's removable, though not as easily held without the bottle below his waist. Like many pieces of Megatron merchandise, this "figure" uses the older head design with blue eyes. The blue eyes are also the only spot of paint on him, unlike the elaborately decoed Prime.
{{-}}

*'''Megatron''' Burger King free toy (2007)
:A non-transformable version of Megatron, cast primarily in gray plastic. The toy's entire "gimmick" is that both arms rotate at the shoulder. Due to the strict [[For safety reasons|protocols]] of making a fast food premium, Megatron's sharp and deadly design was forced to be smoothed out. This had the unfortunate effect of making his sculpted details meld together and looking less like a killer robot and more like a melted clay man. The toy ''appears'' to use the earlier head render of Megatron's, but due to the vague detail and paint job, may also not be.

:The toy also comes with a purple plastic Decepticon base and a lenticular motion card with a surprising amount of frames of animation. These two pieces may in fact be the better part of the package.

*'''Autobot Ratchet vs Megatron''' (2007)
:The first Robot Heroes toy of Megatron was available packed with Autobot Ratchet. Like many Robot Heroes, he is grinning from ear to ear, and in a squatty pose. Notably, his hands are simplified into three fingered claws, and his head is a cute version of the original (and replaced) design. His articulation is the standard shoulders and neck. The toy is colored much like the Leader class version of the character.

*'''The Final Battle''' (2008)
[[Image:Robotheroesfinalbattle.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Shiny!]]
:Sold exclusively in Walmart stores, this release of Megatron is a repaint of the first Robot Heroes toy. Sold with redecoed Autobot Jazz, Blackout, Optimus Prime, and Ratchet, no molding was changed on this toy. However, the figure boasts a metallic finish, making the toy a vibrant silver with painted bronze highlights for greater film accuracy.
{{-}}

*'''Battle Jazz vs Megatron''' (2008)
[[Image:Robotheroesjazzmegatron.jpg|right|150px|thumb|PRIIIIIIME!]]
:The second mold, sharing no parts with the first release. His right arm has transformed into the mace, and he's posed just after slamming it into the ground (with impact "explosion" molded in). The head is the "final" head design, but the toy has many outbursts of blue, either to make a more exciting deco or evoke him being "recently thawed". Sadly, he is only articulated at the neck and LEFT shoulder, denying the world adorable mace bonking.
{{-}}

*'''Battle for the Allspark''' (2009)
:A redeco of the second Robot Heroes mold is included in this set representing the battle of [[Mission City]] along with a redeco of Decepticon Brawl, along with new figures of Ratchet (with his saw), [[Sam Witwicky]] with the All Spark Cube, Optimus Prime, Starscream and Bumblebee in vehicle mode.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Movie Megatron olduglyface.jpg|right|200px|thumb|I'm blind!]]
* The prototype photographs on the back of Leader and Voyager class Megatrons' packaging show him with a completely different head based upon an earlier version of CGI design (seen on the right) that was dropped after much negative fan reaction.
* According to The Movie Guide, Megatron is one of the few Transformers capable of space travel without reverting to a Protoform. This explains how he was capable of chasing the All Spark ''immediately'' after its launch.
* According to [[The Quest For the Allspark]] paperback's opening paragraph, "...Most revered were Optimus and Megatron. They were twin brothers of the Prime dynasty." This implies that Megatron may have also had the surname "Prime" at one time.
* Early script drafts and a [[Optimus Prime Versus Megatron|children's picture book]] featured Megatron consuming the [[spark]]s of his fallen foes, but this didn't make it into the final film due to time constraints. The novelisation of the movie, on the other hand, sees him chow down on Jazz in the final battle; similarly, although not outright stated in dialogue, his animalistic pouncing on the fallen bodies of various characters (including Optimus Prime, Starscream, Jazz and the [[Create-A-Bot (Decepticon)|Decepticon Create-A-Bot]]) in the Movie Nintendo DS games, following by what appears to be rooting around in their innards, seems to suggest he's doing the same there.
* Similarly, in the ''Autobots'' version of the same DS game, it is noted that Megatron "took the spark" of his and Optimus' father. Presumably, this is a reference to both his cannibalistic practises as well as the fact that both he and Prime are in fact brothers, at least in the Cybertronian sense.
* Despite his undeniable hatred of humans, Megatron is the only Decepticon in the movie who doesn't speak [[Cybertronian languages|Cybertronian]] for the majority of his dialogue. In fact, he speaks ''fluent'' English upon reviving, despite the fact that [[wikipedia:Modern English|Modern English]] came into existence around the Sixteenth century, when he was presumably still frozen in the ice. This could suggest that he still was somehow conscious when he was studied by Sector Seven (which he also overtly states upon awakening in the IDW comic adaptation). This would explain why his first action after thawing was declaring his name - imagine being frozen for generations being referred to as "N.B.E. 1", or even worse: "Mega-man" ''and'' "Ice-man".
* In almost every scene where Megatron's alt mode is in use, he spins while in flight; guess thousands of years as a juice pop can do a number on your stabilizers.
* The Megatron computer generated model consisted of 2411 individual pieces, 433,949 polygons, 8924 rig nodes, and 1437 texture maps. The pieces combined gave a volume of 10,325 cubic feet.<ref>Robertson, Barbara (2007). Heavy Metal. ''Computer Graphics, 30''(7), 12-17.</ref>
* [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]] from ''[[Transformers Animated]]'' has apparently stolen this Megatron's head, at least for the [[Transform and Roll Out!|first episode]].
* There are some problems with Simmons' statement about various technologies being reverse-engineered from Megatron. Cars came about in one shape or form at about the turn of the century, and spaceflight technology was pioneered by German and Soviet scientists. Of course, Simmons isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, so he could be exaggerating. They'll always have ''[[Ghost 1]]'' though.
*It was decided that Megatron would not be renamed Galvatron in [[Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]] for the sake of the general audience.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-movie-discussion/180451-welcome-mr-roberto-orci-you-may-ask-him-questions-229.html#post3421064 Roberto Orci answers fan questions on the TFW2005 boards.]</ref>

Megatron (Movie)

{{factions|decepticon}}
{{disambig3|Megatron}}
:''Megatron is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|2007 movie franchise]] in the [[Live-action film series|live-action film]] [[continuity family]]. He is often referred to as Lord Megatron. Known to humans as both "The Ice Man" and "The Mega-Man" and more formally as [[Non-Biological Extraterrestrial|N.B.E.]] - 01''

[[Image:ROTFMegatron Defiance2.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Build me an army worthy of Mordor!]]
The [[brother]] of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] as well as former [[Lord High Protector]] and co-ruler of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], '''Megatron''' is vicious and extremely powerful, single-minded in his goals, straight forward and brutally direct in his attempts to seize those goals. He is all "blunt force" in contrast to [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream's]] penchant for deceit and trickery. On the downside, Megatron tends to become so obsessed with the object of his desires that he can ignore "secondary" matters, glaring flaws in his plans (otherwise, he likely wouldn't have melted into ice-cold arctic water after being white hot from falling through Earth's atmosphere, and spent ten-thousand years as a [[wikipedia:popsicle|popsicle]], and even crippling injuries in pursuit of the coveted item. Trying to talk Megatron out of blindly going for his goals is useless. He will risk his world, his troops, and even his own [[spark]] to achieve his goals. These things do not matter to Megatron. Even the destruction of the [[Autobot]]s is a secondary concern. In Megatron's cerebral processor, all that matters is the [[All Spark]].

While [[Megatron (disambiguation)|some]] merely dislike or disregard organics (since they have a tendency to get in their way), Megatron feels a violent hatred towards them and seems to view them as only slightly above a virus, with him as the cure. This may be due to having spent decades as their prisoner, but his hatred is still very extreme. If there was no All Spark, it is not that big a stretch to think he'd have come here anyway, just to cleanse one more planet of its infection.

[[Image:Defiance1 Megs Prime argument.jpg|left|350px|thumb|"Know your place boy!"]]
Millions of years ago, Lord High Protector Megatron was the supreme commander of the Cybertronian defense forces and firm leader of all of Cybertron, protecting their world against all hostile threats. When Commander [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] returned from his patrol in the [[Eshems nebula]], [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus]] was reporting on the science sector's continuing excavation of the site near the temple at [[Simfur]] and the unusual pulse waves that the [[All Spark]] had been emitting ever since work began. At the excavation site, while Optimus and the scientists were concerned with disturbing the ancient artifacts, all Megatron cared about was whether these relics might provide the same revitalising energy as the All Spark. He was nettled when Optimus asserted the science division's dominion over all scientific and archaeological discoveries and reminded his junior that it is the defence force that protects this world and demanded to be informed of all possible threats from the excavation's findings. When Optimus dared remind Megatron of the military's treatment of such discoveries as hostile, Megatron told Optimus that when ''he'' tries to be the leader of Cybertron, he can make those decisions, not now. When a mysterious relic was discovered, Megatron ordered it removed at once, a demand that Optimus disagreed with. Just as the pair were about to launch into another argument, Cybertron was under attack. Megatron had the relic moved to his quarters under the guise of protecting it from the invading aliens. Arriving to find [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] and [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]] seeking cover within the temple of Simfur, Megatron chastised their alleged lack of courage before he was hit by an alien tank vehicle. After destroying it, he told Starscream to keep Optimus' team out of the military's way and staggered back to his quarters in the capital of [[Trypticon (Movie)|Trypticon]]. Drawn towards the relic, he ignored his injuries and scraped away at the layers of debris encrusting it before losing consciousness. {{storylink|Defiance issue 1}}

{{note|[[Defiance]] changes the past relationship between Megatron and Optimus Prime as previously seen in IDW's Prime Directive prequel and heard in the first movie opening, where they ruled side by side as equals. As presented here, Defiance establishes Optimus Prime as merely the leader of the Cybertronian science sector, and an underling to Megatron.}}

[[Image:Movie Megatron Targetcomic sure.jpg|left|150px|thumb|Sit boy, or I'll beat you to death]]
Megatron once ruled Cybertron side-by-side with Optimus Prime. For generations, the two ruled in peace. Megatron was firm, but Prime was fair, creating a nice, even balance. Sadly, he got a jonesing for the All Spark and the war started. Megatron formed an army of separatists, the Decepticons, while Prime formed his own army, the Autobots. Megatron's forces, while less noble, were more ferocious warriors. Prime eventually made the decision to launch the All Spark into deep space. {{storylink|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 1}}

[[Image:MovieMegatron Bumblebee torture comic.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Better get some ice on that.]]
During an assault on the Autobots personally led by Megatron and his hound, [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]], Megatron crushed an opponent's spark before casually tossing his corpse over his shoulder. Megatron declared that the All Spark would be his, to which Blackout assured his leader that he would make sure of it. Megatron was pleased by his minion's loyalty, but dispatched him to assist Starscream's unit in preventing Optimus Prime's reinforcements from entering Tyger Pax. He then left to meet his destiny, but it slipped from his grasp. {{storylink|Planetfall}}

When [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] stalled Megatron long enough for it to be launched into space, he tore off Bumblebee's arm and crushed his voice box, then took off into space after the All Spark. {{storylink|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 1}}

As Megatron tracked the All Spark through space, he mused about his reasons for the war and how he and his brother were not all that different, as seen by Optimus' sentencing their home to a slow death by launching the Cube into space. Locating the All Spark on [[Earth|a primitive world]], he lost contact with it upon reentry and crashes into the planet's icy northern pole. Low on [[Energon (G1)|energon]] and his safety buffers exhausted, Megatron went into stasis lock. Millennia later, [[Archibald Witwicky]], the leader of the National Arctic Circle Expedition discovered Megatron buried deep in the ice. Unfortunately, Witwicky was driven blind and insane by what he saw, attracting the attention of a mysterious group that discredited his story and seized the mysterious "Ice Man". Six years later, they foundd the Cube. {{storylink|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 2}}

In the Earth year of 1935, Megatron was moved to [[Hoover Dam]], where he would remain imprisoned, for the next seven decades. {{storylink|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 3}}

===Titan Magazines ''Transformers'' movie comic===
The All Spark had not been blindly launched into space, however - its trajectory was leading it directly towards the [[Alkaris Anomaly]], a wormhole that could potentially transport the cube to any one of an infinite number of locations in the universe. Megatron was fully capable of catching up to the cube before it would enter the wormhole, but as he passed Cybertron's moon, he found himself ensnared by an Autobot tractor beam of remarkable strength that pulled him down to the moon's surface. Enraged by the ignominy of it all, Megatron turned his weapons on the Autobots responsible, but quickly calmed down enough to realize that this was only playing into their hands, and instead ordered [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] to take his place in the battle. Megatron swooped back into space, hot on the All Spark's heels, but was unable to stop the cube from falling through the anomaly. Determined to have the All Spark's power, Megatron chose to enter the wormhole himself, only to be spat out in some far-off star system, with no trace of the All Spark. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2}}

{{note|The following events occur in an alternate timeline/continuity where Megatron won the battle of Mission City.}}

[[Image:Megatron Bumbleslap.jpg|left|350px|thumb|"*sigh* Even mindless violence seems boring today..."]]
In another reality, he defeated Optimus at [[Mission City]], killed Sam Witwicky and took control of the All Spark. He was fully linked to it and drew on its power - "It is me and I am it!" - giving him greater might and the ability to heal any wound. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 12|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 4}} After conquering an unknown chunk of Earth (including the entire [[United States of America]]) with [[Dropkick]] as his second-in-command, he used the All Spark's power to start turning Earth from an organic world into a new Cybertron. Optimus Prime lay frozen in the [[Hoover Dam|old Sector Seven base]], Autobot resistance was scattered, and NATO's threat to nuke occupied America was hardly much of one. The only thing bothering Megatron was those rebels breaking into Hoover Dam... {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 9|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 1}}

Megatron personally arrived to face [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] and hunted for him, trying to bait him into appearing. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 10|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 2}} Realising the Autobot must have come with a human ally, he deliberately threatened to go after the human and thus got an emotional Bumblebee to make a defiant attack... at which point he backhanded Bumblebee into the wall and prepared to eviscerate him. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 11|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 3}} [[Image:Megatron Titan12.jpg|right|350px|thumb|Megatron's BDSM Dungeon just wasn't meeting expectations.]] He gave the Autobot a chance at a swift death if he begged for mercy, and was quite impressed when Bumblebee merely asked "that all you got?", but was less impressed when Autobot reinforcements arrived. He effortlessly smashed them aside and was about to kill [[Skyblast (Movie)|Skyblast]] when a new challenger arrived: the revived Optimus! {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 12|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 4}}

Optimus Prime got the snot beaten out of him, every attack he landed on Megatron being repaired by All Spark power. However, he distracted Megatron long enough for Bumblebee to hit him with the ''other'' thing they'd broken into the Dam for: Sector Seven's greatest weapon, a nanovirus that targeted All Spark operation frequencies. Infected, the tyrant was consumed from within by his own power and collapsed dead. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 13|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 5}}

Or so it appeared. He'd downloaded his mind into the All Spark interface module, knowing Starscream would take it and assimilate it into himself. And so Megatron was able to be a voice in Starscream's head for weeks and weeks—and finally, when Starscream had suffered a setback and wanted a plan to stop the Autobots, Megatron gave him one: to let him out... {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 22|The Decepticon Who Haunted Himself}}

With Starscream now following his orders, he had the Decepticons use both carrot (promise of truce) ''and'' stick (multiple attacks) to make the US government, prompted by [[Theodore Allen|the mind-controlled President Allen]], boot out the Autobots—and then nuke them as they left, giving the Decepticons a clear shot at reconquest! {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 23|Revolution Part 1}}

===''Ghosts of Yesterday'' prequel novel===
When Megatron came online, it was obvious that some time had passed. Not only was he encased in a primitive transport, but there were [[Humans|lifeforms]] fighting over him. Before Megatron could properly exterminate them, another crude transport crashed into his, causing a massive (but not spark-threatening) explosion. Megatron would have been pleased to know that the fire only added to his terrifying visage in the eyes of the maggots. Regaining his composure, Megatron noticed [[Phillip Nolan|an insect]] standing near him. As Megatron reached out to grab it, [[Thomas Kinnear|another insect]], this one terminally damaged, began firing crude projectiles which his body armor easily deflected. Waiting until after the creature had expended its ammunition, Megatron grabbed it in his hand, only to discover that it had packed itself with explosives, which threw Megatron to the ground when they detonated. Then, the aforementioned first insect began spraying liquid nitrogen on Megatron, causing him to go back into stasis. Unable to escape, Megatron screamed a dark vengeance upon his captors. {{storylink|Ghosts of Yesterday}}

[[Image:Megstheiceman.JPG|left|200px|thumb|When I get out you are SO DEAD!]]
Megatron eventually succeeded in tracking the All Spark to [[Earth]], where he rather embarrassingly crash-landed in the Arctic Circle and was frozen solid for thousands of years. In 1897, some 100 Earth-years before the arrival of the other Transformers, he was discovered by an explorer named [[Archibald Witwicky|Archibald Amundsen Witwicky]]. Captain Witwicky accidentally activated Megatron's navigation system and caused the coordinates of the All Spark to be etched onto the explorer's glasses. Megatron remained imprisoned in the Arctic, until the 1930s, when he was dug out by the United States government and moved to a secret [[Sector Seven]] stronghold inside [[Hoover Dam]]. In the years that followed, many modern devices (by Earth standards) were reverse-engineered from his frozen body.

In the present day, having searched the galaxy for the All Spark and being drawn to Earth, the remaining Decepticons learned of Witwicky's glasses. Through the Internet, they determined the location of both Megatron and the All Spark inside Hoover Dam. [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] infiltrated the dam and shut down the power systems, while Starscream attacked the external powerlines, resulting in Megatron's thawing out. Once again online, the leader of the Decepticons informed the worthless insects of his true name, shouting "I am Megatron!" (to clear up all that N.B.E.-01/Ice Man nonsense), randomly killed a few of them while destroying his former prison, then transformed and flew off after the All Spark again. He met up with Starscream on the outside, and, never one for pleasantries, demanded to know where the Cube was. Upon learning that the humans had moved the All Spark, Megatron berated Starscream for yet another failure.

[[Image:Movie Megatron breakout.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Mace isn't for spraying, it's for hitting.]]
After Starscream and Devastator's opening attacks in [[Mission City]], Megatron arrived, and again declared his name (he really wants people to know who he is). The Autobots were so panicked by the sight of their long lost nemesis that [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] called for a temporary retreat. Megatron blasted [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]] away when the diminutive Autobot attempted to attack, then threw him into the air before crushing him on top of a tower with his clawed talons. Jazz vainly fought on, asking if Megatron wanted a "piece", but doing little damage to Megatron. The Decepticon leader killed the Autobot by tearing him in half, callously declaring that he wanted "two".

[[Image:Movie Megatron jetmode cityfight.jpg|left|300px|thumb|Really bad case of gas.]]
As [[Sam Witwicky|the human boy]] ran off with the All Spark, Megatron ordered the Decepticons to [[Decepticons, attack|attack]]. Devastator attacked the armed insects, while Starscream and [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] fought [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] and Ratchet for the All Spark. At that moment, Optimus Prime appeared and challenged Megatron. Millennia in the ice had done nothing to lessen the animosity Megatron felt for his brother, however. Barely managing to growl out Prime's name, he transformed and flew at Prime at full speed. The Autobot leader leapt and grabbed a hold of Megatron, who slammed him into a building before flying right through a skyscraper. Both leaders landed in the middle of an intersection, but Megatron was the first to recover and leaped upon his brother, snarling that the humans were undeserving of life. Optimus Prime replied that they had the right to choose for themselves before he threw his brother off. Megatron declared that if Prime wished to defend them, he should "join them in extinction", forming his [[fusion cannon]]. Before he could fire, the Autobot leader drew his [[ion blaster]] and fired, hitting Megatron. The Decepticon leader shrugged off this attack, spun around from the momentum and fired his cannon, throwing Optimus Prime into the side of a building.

Megatron pursued the young human who had removed the All Spark from Hoover Dam, destroying everything that stood in his way. The boy ran to a dilapidated building that was the designated coordinates for a human military evacuation team, and Megatron smashed his way through, yelling that he could smell the human maggot. Starscream destroyed the helicopter intended to take the All Spark, and Megatron burst through the floor, inquiring if it was courage or fear that compelled him. Finally cornering him on a ledge, Megatron offered that if the human gave him the All Spark, the boy might live as [[Ravage (G1)|his]] [[Laserbeak (G1)|pet]]. The Decepticon leader relished the human's defiant refusal and destroyed the ledge the human was standing upon, sending the boy tumbling to the ground.

[[Image:Movie Megatron maceattack.jpg|right|200px|thumb|This would have been so much cooler if it had been a chain mine.]]
Unfortunately, the human was caught by Optimus Prime, who then tried to escape down the side of the building before Megatron tackled him and sent all three slamming into the pavement. As a nearby [[Michael Bay|human bystander]] attempted to run, the Decepticon expressed his disgust at the insect's proximity and flicked it away. Protecting the young boy, Prime declared that their war would end here and it was now just between the two brothers. Though lusting for the All Spark, Megatron decided to indulge his brother's obvious death wish, declaring that only he was in this fight. Despite Optimus Prime's best efforts, Megatron was relentless, matching the Autobot leader with blow after devastating blow until he collapsed. Adding insult to injury, Megatron informed Prime that his defense of the "weak" was the real reason he lost.

[[Image:Megatron allspark merge.JPG|left|300px|thumb|Oh, he's dead. There's no way this will make him [[Galvatron (disambiguation)|even]] [[Galvatron (G1)|more]] [[Galvatron (RID)|powerful.]]]]
The Decepticon leader turned his attention back to the human boy, but was suddenly attacked by the human fighter jets and [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]]'s ground soldiers firing sabot rounds. Optimus took this chance, striking Megatron and knocking him down. His armor a damaged, shattered mess, Megatron ignored the punishment and focused on the human boy, growling that he would kill the boy and that the All Spark was his. As Optimus Prime ordered the boy to place the All Spark into his chest, the human instead pushed it into the now-exposed [[spark]] in Megatron's chest, overloading him with energy and extinguishing the Decepticon's life force. As Optimus Prime stood over Megatron's lifeless shell, watching the light flicker out of his brother's [[optics]], he remarked somberly, yet remorsefully, that Megatron had left him no choice, and removed a shard of the All Spark from his brother's spark cavity.

Megatron's body was dumped into the Laurentian Abyss at its deepest point, along with the remains of the other Decepticons, where the near-freezing temperatures will -- [[Decepticon Headquarters|hopefully]]-- keep them dormant indefinitely. {{storylink|Transformers (2007)|Transformers}}

===IDW ''Transformers'' movie comics===
In the aftermath of the battle in Mission City, [[Sector Seven]] hauled away Megatron's corpse along with the other Decepticon bodies. The clandestine human organisation brought the bodies to a secret facility in the Nevada desert, with the intention of getting every bit of information they can out of the dead Decepticons before they were forced to dump them into the sea. {{storylink|Alliance issue 1}} When he arrived to oversee the burial of those who fell in Mission City, Optimus Prime noticed the surviving All Spark sliver glowed when near Megatron's body, and gave it to [[Professor Vine]] for safekeeping. {{storylink|Alliance issue 2}}

====Autobot campaign====
After arriving at Hoover Dam, Bumblebee saw Megatron and the All Spark being held in the same room, which was guarded by lasers. After bringing down the lasers, Bumblebee managed to shrink the All Spark, while under fire by Megatron. Following the Autobots to Mission City, Megatron ignominiously "flicked" Bumblebee away, then tried to grab the All Spark from Sam. Optimus Prime arrived and the two fought in the Mission City park. After Prime believed that he had destroyed Megatron, Sam handed the All Spark to Prime, but Megatron jumped into the air with his flail, making one last attempt at nailing Prime. Prime caught the flail in its path and yanked Megatron towards him, shoving the All Spark into his chest. Pretty ruthless there, Prime, pretty ruthless. {{storylink|Transformers The Game (console)|Transformers The Game}}

====Decepticon campaign====
After learning Megatron's location, Blackout and Starscream sabotaged the dam's power, allowing Megatron to thaw out and awaken. After Megatron emerged, Starscream and Blackout bowed before their Lord, who declared that they had much to do. After the Decepticons dispatched the Autobots, Megatron, hoping to draw Prime out, went on a rampage in Mission City, declaring that the city would burn beneath his feet (this means toastie toes, but he's willing to make that sacrifice). Megatron and Prime played a game of cat and mouse, with Megatron tracking Prime and Sam, until Megatron finally destroyed Prime, then merged the All Spark with his spark, becoming even more powerful in the process (...wait, what?). After decimating Earth, Megatron took the [[Abraham Lincoln|Lincoln Memorial]] as his throne, then ordered Starscream, Brawl, and Barricade to finish the planet, before going on to conquer the galaxy. {{storylink|Transformers The Game (console)|Transformers The Game}}

===''Transformers: Autobots''===
Having landed on Earth some thousands of years ago, Megatron is thought to be frozen somewhere in the Arctic. As the Autobots look for clues as to his location, they eventually arrive in the frozen desert long enough to realize the humans have found him, as well as the [[All Spark|AllSpark]] (sic). Once they hack into the communications array at the base, they find documentation leading to the Hoover Dam, where the Autobots and Decepticons race. Some wishing to free him, most hoping to destroy him, the Transformers fight over the base until the Decepticon leader is finally freed. Once out of cryo-storage, Megatron proceeds to steal the AllSpark from the Autobots and begin a destructive rampage through Tranquility, until he is finally defeated by Optimus Prime and [[Create-A-Bot (Autobot)|Create-A-Bot]]. {{storylink|Transformers Autobots/Decepticons|Transformers: Autobots}}

===''Transformers: Decepticons''===
With Megatron frozen in the Hoover Dam, the Decepticons fight to free their leader. However, as is quickly made apparent, Starscream and his young protege, a [[Create-A-Bot (Decepticon)|Create-A-Bot]], seek to eliminate their leader. This quickly changes, as Create-A-Bot is convinced by Barricade to free their commander, as Starscream is a back-stabbing bureaucrat while Megatron is a truly zealous leader. Even though both would kill you in an instant, Megatron would at least do it to your face so you could see it coming.

Once free, Megatron quickly takes the time to wipe out Jazz, who has been left at the bridge to help get rid of Megatron. After a fairly short battle, Megatron smashes Jazz into the dirt, leaving him to die. Back in Tranquility, he chases after Starscream, only to be blocked by [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]]. Once the sibling rivalry is finished, Prime is left in pieces in the streets of Tranquility.

Arriving in the Casino Strip, Megatron finds Create-A-Bot damaged and Starscream flying away. Giving chase, he attacks his traitorous second-in-command, nearly destroying him despite his awesome All Spark driven powers. Starscream uses his last breath to insult Megatron before being killed by the tyrant. Returning to Create-A-Bot's side, Megatron takes a moment to call him a weakling and a failure, completely forgetting about the fact that Create-A-Bot saved him, led him to Starscream, destroyed the Autobots, and served him more loyally than most of his other followers. Taking a moment to let this sink in, Megatron went on to tell him that the weak are made to serve the strong, then ripped the young Decepticon apart and ate his Spark. Megatron then took off into the sky with intentions unknown. {{storylink|Transformers Autobots/Decepticons|Transformers: Decepticons}}

===Transformers (2007)===
====Legends Class toys====
[[Image:Movie Legends Megatron toy.jpg|right|180px|thumb|Just what the hell do I turn into?]]
*'''Megatron''' (Legends Class, 2007)
*''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Megatron'''
:Legends class Megatron is the smallest mainline ''Movie'' Megatron toy, and boy, does it show. Even with Megatron's relatively simple transformation sequence, the sheer simplicity of the Legends class toy means that his vehicle mode is basically his robot mode splayed out, and again, boy is it ''obvious''. His robot mode is passably accurate, if by accurate one means he is now a hunchback with wings for legs, Dustbusters for hands, and an unchanged Alien Queen-esque head design.
{{-}}

*'''Generations Legends''' (Target exclusive multi-pack, 2007)
:A Target exclusive, this four-pack of Legends Class figures contains two versions of both Optimus Prime and Megatron, namely [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Legends of Cybertron Optimus Prime]], [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Movie Legends Optimus Prime]], [[Megatron (Armada)|Legends of Cybertron Megatron]] and Movie Legends Megatron.

*'''Battle for the Allspark''' (Toys'R'Us exclusive multi-pack, 2007)
:A Toys'R'Us exclusive, this six-pack of Legends Class figures contains unmodified toys of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]], [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]], Megatron, [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] and [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]].
{{-}}

[[Image:Movie Legends JazzIceMegatron toys.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Wow, those guys sure do grow up fast... No, wait. They're still puny.]]
*'''Battle Jazz vs. Ice Megatron''' (Legends multi-pack, 2008)
:Ice Megatron is a, well, ice-themed redeco of Legends class Megatron, which means his black paint applications have been replaced by blue. He comes packed with yet another redeco of Legends class Jazz, this time "battle damaged".
{{-}}

====Voyager Class toys====
[[Image:Movie Voyager Megatron toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Hey, I think I'm as weird as the War Within figures!... Nah, not there yet.]]
*'''Megatron''' (Voyager Class, 2007)
*''Japanese ID number:'' '''MD-14'''
*''Accessories:'' Projectile
:Voyager Class Megatron transforms into an ice-covered version of his Cybertronic jet, with transparent blue plastic forming large portions of his vehicle mode, such as parts of his wings. This ice design is carried onto his robot mode, with his legs, shoulders and chest having some kind of 'ice' plastic covering them. With a significantly different (and simple compared to other figures of the same pricepoint) transformation sequence compared to his earlier Leader class toy, his chest frost lowers and his shoulders raise to robot mode position when you bring his lower body forward thanks to [[Automorph]] technology. He also has his fusion cannon in its entirety on his left arm. His wings feature flip-out "ice blades", and pulling on a piece in the back of his jet mode brings them forward like pincer claws. This design is remarkably similar to his Predacon- incarnation toys.

:Something interesting to note is that his feet are entirely spring-loaded, which means his foot and the two "rear toes" on each feet automatically close up when he's not standing up. Surprisingly, this helps a lot with the posing, as the feet's parts automatically position themselves for the perfect balance.
{{-}}

[[Image:Movie Voyager Premium Megatron.jpg|right|250px|thumb|I'll ask again... what the hell do I turn into?]]
*'''Megatron''' ("Premium Series" Voyager Class, 2007)
*''Accessories:'' Projectile
:One of the first figures available in the ''Premium Series'' (although not explicitly identfied on the packaging as such), Voyager Class Megatron was released exclusively at Best Buy on October 16th, 2007 alongside the North American launch of the ''Transformers'' movie DVD. Megatron has been completely redecoed, covering most of his previously grey parts with metallic silver paint and a black paint wash over the top of that. Black and gold highlights are used to offset all of the silver, while the transparent 'ice' parts are clear. These changes essentially make Megatron far more accurate to his movie appearance.

:Megatron is presented in robot mode inside a special display box similar in shape to the packaging for the Hasbro release of ''Generation 1'' ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]].
{{-}}

*'''Battle Over Mission City Megatron (Two-Pack)''' ("Screen Battles" Voyager Class, 2008)
*''Accessories:'' Projectile
:A Target exclusive [[repaint]] of Voyager Class Megatron in primarily beige and chocolate brown colors with brown paintwashes, this version replaces the ice colored translucent plastic with two shades of translucent orange to replicate a look that resembles Megatron's firey demise (or atmospheric re-entry). Unlike the previous releases, this version's wings are painted to match the body color, so they give the appearance of molten slag. This version was only available in a two-pack with a mostly unchanged Deluxe Class [[Jazz (Movie)|Final Battle Jazz]] in reference to their fight on the skyscraper featured in the film. As the colors on this Megatron are very similar to the colors on the Screen Battles version of Voyager Class [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], it might be assumed that those two sets are meant to also represent the climactic final battle at the end of the film.
{{-}}

====Leader Class toys====
[[Image:Movie Leader Megatron toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|OK, Hasbro, I will give you one more chance... TELL ME WHAT I TURN INTO!!! NOW!!!]]
*'''Megatron''' (Leader Class, 2007)
*''Japanese ID number:'' '''MD-07'''
:Leader Class ''Movie'' Megatron transforms into a silver Cybertronic assault jet. He is quite accurate to the CGI design... except for the giant mass of legs attempting (but failing) to hide under the wings.

:In robot mode, Megatron's sculpt is quite accurate, or as accurate as a toy based on his CG design can be. However, his paint decoration is quite inaccurate, with blue highlights on various parts of his body, possibly to allude to his pre-frozen state and to give a relatively monochromatic figure more color. More confusing is his jet black face, which obscures the sculpt's details and is inaccurate to the movie appearance's gunmetal.

:Megatron's right fist disconnects at the wrist to become the spiked end of the extendable "chain whip" weapon concealed within his forearm; pressing the black switch on the arm pulls the chain taut for a whipping attack. His arms also link together at the wrists to form a "[[fusion cannon]]," with the pod on his left forearm concealing the weapon's [[Automorph]]ing twin barrels, exposed by pulling a switch. His other automorph features include his wings folding up as his vehicle nosecone is moved into place, and his feet unfolding as his knees are straightened. Finally, pressing the button on his waist activates a small friction motor, which moves various torso plates and blades on his back into place, accompanied by a metallic shrieking sound and flashing yellow lights.

:Megatron's instructions summarily fail to actually tell the reader about how his gimmicks work. The whipping-action black switch for his flail is not mentioned; they do not detail how to connect the arms for fusion cannon mode; and the fact that the cannon is on a slider, allowing it to be centre-aligned, rather than sitting off to one side, is also omitted.

:There is an error in Megatron's legs, in that his left and right hip joints have been swapped for reasons unknown. Switching them allows for a slightly smoother transformation. In addition to ''that'', both of Megatron's hands have a finger misassembly. Two pieces are molded to have two fingers, while one is obviously supposed to be a thumb–however, this thumb is on the 'outside' of his hands instead of the inside. The prototype on the packaging's stock photos show the correct assembly.

:''Geez'', [[Hasbro]].

:Possibly a dropped feature [[for safety reasons]], the right fist (partly a projectile tethered to the arm) is designed to launch out of his wrist via a spring-loaded firing mechanism. However, the spring for the launching mechanism was removed, though the firing trigger remains. One can either find a compatible spring or steal the spring in his left arm fusion cannon, then place it in his right forearm, though this disables his fusion cannon-retracting Automorph.
{{-}}

[[Image:Premium Movie Megs.JPG|right|300px|thumb|"Hey, I got a tan!"]]
*'''Megatron''' ("Premium Series" Leader Class, 2008)
:Premium Megatron is a redeco of the previously released Leader class Megatron. The figure is now given far more movie-accurate paint applications of black, gold, & silver. Premium Megatron also features the classic transformation sound when the chest Automorph function is activated. The original "metal shriek" sound is retained when the sound button is pressed in vehicle mode.

:In the promotional photos of the toy, this version was pictured with a new vehicle mode face cover that fit the new head better. However, this retool was apparently dropped before actual production but can still be seen on the box back photography. All manufacturing errors from the first release are still present.

:Unlike some of the early "Premium Series" toys, Premium Leader Megatron was mass-released at a variety of retailers, instead of being an exclusive to any particular store.

====Fast Action Battlers====
[[Image:Movie FAB Megatron.jpg|right|200px|thumb|Just back from filming Predator 3]]
*'''Fusion Blast Megatron''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
*''Japanese ID number:''
*''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles
:Fusion Blast Megatron is a simple version of Megatron with dorky-looking proportions in robot mode, and it turns into an even dorkier-looking vehicle mode. The transformation sequence manages to be even more simple and non-involved than the other ''Movie'' Megatron toys by means of an Automorph feature very similar to the early Beast Wars flipchangers. Moving his back section down causes the torso to flip up, hiding the head and positioning the arms skywards. Though the figure requires a little more repositioning and folding, most of the transformation is done with a single step.
{{-}}

[[Image:NA megatron FAB.JPG|right|200px|thumb|Racism accepted...]]
*'''Night Attack Megatron''' (Fast Action Battler, 2008)
*''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

====Robot Replicas====
[[Image:Mov2007-toy RobotReplicas Megatron.JPG|right|150px|thumb|This is heavy man!]]
*'''Megatron''' (Robot Replica, 2007)
*''Accessories:'' Fusion Cannon
:As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] sub-line, this version of Megatron is a non-transforming action figure that hews very close to the movie's CGI model. It features joints similar to the [[Revoltech]] toys, though the elbows only turn from side-to-side, giving him extremely limited arm articulation. His forearms can be replaced with his fusion cannon accessory (or any other arm attachments from other Robot Replicas, which could lead to some fun Frankensteins).
{{-}}

====Titanium series====
[[Image:Movie TitaniumRM Megatron.jpg|right|130px|thumb|"Ewwww i stepped in something... Frenzy is that you?"]]
*'''Megatron''' (3" Robot Masters, 2007)
*''Accessories:'' Movie-style Decepticon sigil display stand
:''Titanum'' Megatron is a die-cast metal and plastic figurine, with an accurate sculpt based on the CG model owing to the fact he doesn't need to transform. Being a figurine, he only has articulation in his shoulders, neck and waist. Megatron comes with a Movie-style Decepticon symbol display stand.
{{-}}

====Attacktix====
*'''Battle Masters Megatron and Scorponok''' (Battle Master set)
[[Image:Attacktix-MovMegsScorp.jpg|right|150px|thumb|HADOOOUKEN!]]
:One of the many casualties of the shelving of Hasbro's ''[[Attacktix]]'' line was this Battle Master set featuring Megatron and Scorponok.

===Transformers (2007)===
[[Image:GummyCandyFront.jpg|right|100px|thumb|"Oh, How hideously (and deliciously) ironic!"]]
*'''Transformers Gummy Candy''' (2006)
:Made by the [[Frankford Candy & Chocolate Company]] at the behest of [[Hasbro|Hasbro's]] Cap Candy Company unit, this large Megatron-shaped [[Transformers Gummy Candy|gummy candy]] was available throughout 2006 to 2007. Also available was an [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]-shaped gummy candies.
{{-}}

===Battling Robots Bubble Bath===
*'''Megatron''' (2007)
[[Image:Megatron bubblebath.jpg|right|120px|thumb|"This is why I hate merchandising."]]
:Megatron's torso attaches to the bottle of bubble bath. His elbows bend, and his arms have a punching gimmick, to allow him to battle the forces of good. Pushing a lever on either side makes the respective fist punch forward. He's removable, though not as easily held without the bottle below his waist. Like many pieces of Megatron merchandise, this "figure" uses the older head design with blue eyes. The blue eyes are also the only spot of paint on him, unlike the elaborately decoed Prime.
{{-}}

*'''Megatron''' Burger King free toy (2007)
:A non-transformable version of Megatron, cast primarily in gray plastic. The toy's entire "gimmick" is that both arms rotate at the shoulder. Due to the strict [[For safety reasons|protocols]] of making a fast food premium, Megatron's sharp and deadly design was forced to be smoothed out. This had the unfortunate effect of making his sculpted details meld together and looking less like a killer robot and more like a melted clay man. The toy ''appears'' to use the earlier head render of Megatron's, but due to the vague detail and paint job, may also not be.

:The toy also comes with a purple plastic Decepticon base and a lenticular motion card with a surprising amount of frames of animation. These two pieces may in fact be the better part of the package.

====Basic Fun====
*'''Megatron''' (Figural keychain assortment, 2007)
: Produced by [[Basic Fun]], this keychain is a likeness of Megatron's robot mode with articulated arms, legs, head, waist, and a keyring sticking out of his ass.

====Transformers Movie Danglers====
[[Image:Movie Megatron dangler.jpg|right|200px|thumb|No, that's not his back, that's his actual face.]]
*'''Megatron''' (2007)
:Released by [[Tomy Yujin]] in November 2007<ref name="TomyYujin">[http://www.gachausa.com/products/transformers.asp Tomy Yujin ''Transformers'' page]</ref> for the [[Danglers Collection]], this toy is a weird plastic [[Super Deformed]] version of Megatron that pops out his vehicle mode when you squeeze him. This little figurine has a little strap on it so that it can be put on cell phones or portable gaming devices.

:Other than Megatron, there are also versions of [[Brawl (Movie)|Decepticon Devastator]], Bumblebee, Ironhide, Bonecrusher, Jazz, and Optimus Prime.

{{-}}

===Robot Heroes===
[[Image:Robot Heroes Ratchet vs Megatron.jpg|right|180px|thumb|Adorable head crushing!]]
*'''Autobot Ratchet vs Megatron''' (2007)
:The first Robot Heroes toy of Megatron was available packed with Autobot Ratchet. Like many Robot Heroes, he is grinning from ear to ear, and in a squatty pose. Notably, his hands are simplified into three fingered claws, and his head is a cute version of the original (and replaced) design. His articulation is the standard shoulders and neck. The toy is colored much like the Leader class version of the character.
{{-}}

*'''The Final Battle''' (2008)
[[Image:Robotheroesfinalbattle.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Shiny!]]
:Sold exclusively in Walmart stores, this release of Megatron is a repaint of the first Robot Heroes toy. Sold with redecoed Autobot Jazz, Blackout, Optimus Prime, and Ratchet, no molding was changed on this toy. However, the figure boasts a metallic finish, making the toy a vibrant silver with painted bronze highlights for greater film accuracy.
{{-}}

*'''Battle Jazz vs Megatron''' (2008)
[[Image:Robotheroesjazzmegatron.jpg|right|150px|thumb|PRIIIIIIME!]]
:The second mold, sharing no parts with the first release. His right arm has transformed into the mace, and he's posed just after slamming it into the ground (with impact "explosion" molded in). The head is the "final" head design, but the toy has many outbursts of blue, either to make a more exciting deco or evoke him being "recently thawed". Sadly, he is only articulated at the neck and LEFT shoulder, denying the world adorable mace bonking.
{{-}}

*'''Battle for the Allspark''' (2009)
:A redeco of the second Robot Heroes mold is included in this set representing the battle of [[Mission City]] along with a redeco of Decepticon Brawl, along with new figures of Ratchet (with his saw), [[Sam Witwicky]] with the All Spark Cube, Optimus Prime, Starscream and Bumblebee in vehicle mode.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Movie Megatron olduglyface.jpg|right|200px|thumb|I'm blind!]]
* The prototype photographs on the back of Leader and Voyager class Megatrons' packaging show him with a completely different head based upon an earlier version of CGI design (seen on the right) that was dropped after much negative fan reaction.
* According to The Movie Guide, Megatron is one of the few Transformers capable of space travel without reverting to a Protoform. This explains how he was capable of chasing the All Spark ''immediately'' after its launch.
* According to [[The Quest For the Allspark]] paperback's opening paragraph, "...Most revered were Optimus and Megatron. They were twin brothers of the Prime dynasty." This implies that Megatron may have also had the surname "Prime" at one time.
* Early script drafts and a [[Optimus Prime Versus Megatron|children's picture book]] featured Megatron consuming the [[spark]]s of his fallen foes, but this didn't make it into the final film due to time constraints. The novelisation of the movie, on the other hand, sees him chow down on Jazz in the final battle; similarly, although not outright stated in dialogue, his animalistic pouncing on the fallen bodies of various characters (including Optimus Prime, Starscream, Jazz and the [[Create-A-Bot (Decepticon)|Decepticon Create-A-Bot]]) in the Movie Nintendo DS games, following by what appears to be rooting around in their innards, seems to suggest he's doing the same there.
* Similarly, in the ''Autobots'' version of the same DS game, it is noted that Megatron "took the spark" of his and Optimus' father. Presumably, this is a reference to both his cannibalistic practises as well as the fact that both he and Prime are in fact brothers, at least in the Cybertronian sense.
* Despite his undeniable hatred of humans, Megatron is the only Decepticon in the movie who doesn't speak [[Cybertronian languages|Cybertronian]] for the majority of his dialogue. In fact, he speaks ''fluent'' English upon reviving, despite the fact that [[wikipedia:Modern English|Modern English]] came into existence around the Sixteenth century, when he was presumably still frozen in the ice. This could suggest that he still was somehow conscious when he was studied by Sector Seven (which he also overtly states upon awakening in the IDW comic adaptation). This would explain why his first action after thawing was declaring his name - imagine being frozen for generations being referred to as "N.B.E. 1", or even worse: "Mega-man" ''and'' "Ice-man".
* In almost every scene where Megatron's alt mode is in use, he spins while in flight; guess thousands of years as a juice pop can do a number on your stabilizers.
* The Megatron computer generated model consisted of 2411 individual pieces, 433,949 polygons, 8924 rig nodes, and 1437 texture maps. The pieces combined gave a volume of 10,325 cubic feet.<ref>Robertson, Barbara (2007). Heavy Metal. ''Computer Graphics, 30''(7), 12-17.</ref>
* [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]] from ''[[Transformers Animated]]'' has apparently stolen this Megatron's head, at least for the [[Transform and Roll Out!|first episode]].
* There are some problems with Simmons' statement about various technologies being reverse-engineered from Megatron. Cars came about in one shape or form at about the turn of the century, and spaceflight technology was pioneered by German and Soviet scientists. Of course, Simmons isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, so he could be exaggerating. They'll always have ''[[Ghost 1]]'' though.
*It was decided that Megatron would not be renamed Galvatron in [[Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]] for the sake of the general audience.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-movie-discussion/180451-welcome-mr-roberto-orci-you-may-ask-him-questions-229.html#post3421064 Roberto Orci answers fan questions on the TFW2005 boards.]</ref>

As a tribute to his immense popularity, Optimus Prime is the only ''Movie'' Transformer with a toy in every regular category (Legend, Fast Action, Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader.) This is excluding his Cyber Stomper and transformable gun toys.

====Legends Class toys====
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Legends Class, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Optimus Prime'''

[[Image:Movie Legends Prime toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Shortening the smokestacks is good; [[For safety reasons|it makes the toy safer]]. But removing ONE and keeping the other? Crazy.]]
: Legends class Optimus Prime is an ''extremely'' simplified toy of the extremely complex movie design. As such, he features numerous unavoidable inaccuracies, such as not transforming or even looking very much like the original design or the larger toy versions in robot mode. However, proportionally Legends class Optimus Prime is not far off from the real truck and the Leader class toy's vehicle mode, aside from missing a smokestack on the driver's side. He is articulated at the shoulders and upper legs via [[Ball joint|ball joints]].

*'''Generations Legends''' (Target exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

[[Image:TargetGenerationsLegends.jpg|right|thumb|150px|"Say, have we met?" "No, I'm not from around here." "I can tell. You look ''way'' more realistic than I do."]]

: A Target exclusive, this four-pack of Legends Class figures contains two versions of both Optimus Prime and Megatron, namely [[Optimus Prime (Armada) toys|Legends of Cybertron Optimus Prime]], Movie Legends Optimus Prime, [[Megatron (Armada) toys|Legends of Cybertron Megatron]] and [[Megatron (Movie)|Movie Legends Megatron]].

{{-}}
*'''Battle for the Allspark''' (Toys'R'Us exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

[[Image:Movie Allspark Legends pack.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Get ready for the safety recall, folks.]]
: A Toys'R'Us exclusive, this six-pack of Legends class figures contains unmodified toys of Optimus Prime, [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]], [[Bumblebee (Movie) toys|Bumblebee]], [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]], [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] and [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]].

{{-}}
*'''Nightwatch Optimus Prime vs. Stealth Starscream''' (Legends Allspark Battles two-pack, 2008)

: The previously-released Legends Class Optimus Prime toy is redecoed to match the Leader class Nightwatch Optimus Prime deco. He comes with a predominantly black and silver redeco of [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]].

====Deluxe Class toys====
[[Image:Movie ProtoformOptimusPrime toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Until I find my feet, I have to use these giant robot hands.]]
*'''Protoform Optimus Prime''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-05'''
**''Accessories:'' Gun with flame attachment

:Based upon the "[[Protoform]]" (Cybertronian) appearances of the Transformers in the Movie, Protoform Optimus Prime transforms into his "entry" mode. This mode somewhat resembles a cybertronic truck, with false wheels sculpted onto the sides, and Optimus Prime's trademark windows in front. A flame decoration piece fits to the back of the "vehicle", creating the illusion of a flaming comet's tail. The bottom of the vehicle has small wheels to roll the toy across smooth surfaces. Oddly, it has NO [[Automorph|automorph]] gimmick at all, a feature most main-line figures have.

:In robot mode he resembles previous Optimus characters: his angular chest windows are reminiscent of ''[[Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]], while his near-animalistic limbs and color scheme are evocative of ''[[Beast Wars (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' [[Optimus Primal]]. He has excellent articulation due to his many ball joints, and is armed with a rifle. The flame attachment can fit onto the end of the (non-firing) gun barrel.

:Some packaging variants of this figure (perhaps a Wal-Mart exclusive) included a free movie poster depicting a Cybertronian eye overlooking Earth. While an added sticker to the outer plastic bubble says "Exclusive movie poster!", it is more of a preview of upcoming figures.

{{-}}
*'''Protoform Optimus Prime Fusion Cluster Edition''' (C3xHobby Convention exclusive Deluxe, Japan 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Gun with missile and flame attachment

:An extensive redeco of the Protoform Optimus Prime mold that was exclusively available at the Japanese C3xHobby Convention in August of 2007, and later offered by [[E-Hobby|e-Hobby]] in limited quantities. Most of the body is made out of transparent turquoise plastic in order to mimic its frozen state in the "coldness" of space, while orange paint is used on the front end of the "entry" mode, mimicking the heat effects of sudden atmospheric entry. The flame attachment is made out of clear ''blue'' plastic, with the tail end being covered in ''gold'' paint.

{{-}}
*'''Deluxe three-pack''' (multi-pack, UK 2007)

:This three-pack, which was available at general retail in the United Kingdom, contains an unchanged Deluxe Class Protoform Optimus Prime together with equally unchanged Deluxe Class [[Brawl (Movie)|Decepticon Brawl]] and [[Jazz (Movie)|Autobot Jazz]] toys.

====Voyager Class toys====
[[Image:Movie Voyager OptimusPrime toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|The last one of you out of here gets a...gets a lead salad!]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Voyager Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-13'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

:The mid-range Voyager class ''Movie'' Optimus Prime toy transforms into an amalgamation of the Kenworth W900 and the Peterbilt 379, making this toy fairly inaccurate to the actual vehicle Optimus Prime turned into. Because of the smaller size and lessened complexity, the Voyager class Optimus Prime features a significantly different transformation sequence compared to the Leader class toy, and indeed, the actual CGI design. However, as the actual truck cabin no longer forms his chest, the cabin now features a small interior with opening doors and a non-removable cowboy-hat-bedecked driver figurine that flips out of the seat when the driver's side door is opened.

: In robot mode, Voyager class Optimus Prime is proportionally more accurate to his CGI design than the leader class toy and has a more accurate headsculpt. However, due to the aforementioned lessened complexity, significant sacrifices had to be made, such as "cheats" to the transformation sequence to achieve this. He is thus less accurate overall than he initially appears. In addition to previously mentioned changes, he carries much of the truck's front hood, grill and fenders on his back like a backpack. Nevertheless, he maintains a superb level of articulation and posability.

: Optimus Prime is armed with two large rifles formed out of a combination of both smokestacks and fuel tanks. These rifles peg into his lower arms with grips for his open hands. The under-slung fuel tanks can fire spring-loaded projectiles. In vehicle mode, both smokestack rifles can be deployed as twin cannons, and this mechanism can also be used to store the rifles and deploy them as shoulder guns in robot mode.

[[Image:Movie Robovision OptimusPrime toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|We'd hate to see what those smokestacks looked like BEFORE Hasbro shortened them.]]
*'''Robo-Vision Optimus Prime''' (Voyager, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

: A Target-[[Exclusive|exclusive]] repaint of the Voyager Class Optimus Prime toy, this limited edition version boasts a "Supermetal finish", resulting in silver metallic paint covering much of his paintable gray/silver plastic, a much higher contrast in his red and blue plastic colors and improved 'flame' paint decorations.

: Unusually for the smaller Voyager Class of toys, [[Robo-Vision]] Optimus Prime comes packed in robot mode in a special hexagonal column box with many windows, similar to the original packaging for ''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime. The package also includes a [[Robo-Vision Decoder]]. Strangely, this Target exclusive preceded the release of the regular Voyager by a large margin, coming out on [[June 2]], 2007 with the initial wave of movie toys.

:This toy has been retroactively declared part of the ''Premium Series'' of more [[Show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] redecos of core characters from the movie.

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee and Optimus Prime''' (Argos exclusive two-pack, UK 2007)

:A two-pack, exclusiveliy available at Argos stores in the United Kingdom, which contains an unchanged Voyager Class Optimus Prime and an equally unchanged Deluxe Class Concept Camaro [[Bumblebee (Movie) toys|Bumblebee]].

{{-}}
*'''Battle damage three-pack''' (Sam's Club exclusive three-pack, 2007)

:A three-pack, exclusive to Sam's Club stores, consisting of redecos of Voyager Class Optimus Prime and Deluxe Class [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee]], both with a battle damage deco, and an unchanged Voyager Class [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Voyager Firststrike OptimusPrime.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Think the [[Geewun|Geewunners]] will shut up now?]]
*'''First Strike Optimus Prime''' (Voyager Class, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

: Released as part of the ''Allspark Power'' refresh of the movie line, First Strike Optimus Prime is a extensive redeco of Voyager class Optimus Prime in a colour scheme based upon ''Generation 1'' and ''Classics'' Optimus Prime. The included toy bio describes this coloring as Prime paying tribute to the markings he wore as a young soldier when the war began. Due to the transformation scheme, this figure actually ends up being ''less'' like its G1 counterpart in robot mode, a sacrifice made for the slavish redeco of the vehicle mode. You can't have your cake and eat it too, folks.

{{-}}
*'''Autobot Optimus Prime''' ("international market" exclusive Voyager-sized toy, 2008)

:A single-packed version of the battle damaged Voyager Optimus Prime toy from the Sam's Club exclusive three-pack. Although the assortment number and the general packaging style seemed to indicate that this might be a Best Buy exclusive, this has been confirmed to be an "international market" exclusive. It has been released in Asia, but will presumably not be available in the USA outside the Sam's Club three-pack.

{{-}}
*'''Freeway Brawl Optimus Prime (Two-Pack)''' ("Screen Battles" Voyager, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

: A second Target-[[Exclusive|exclusive]] repaint of the Voyager Class Optimus Prime toy, the grey molded pieces now are beige-grey and multiple parts that previously molded blue and red (the chest, shoulder pads, and leg interiors) had their mold colors swapped with extra [[Paint application|paint applications]] to make up the difference. As such, the toy has very few visual differences from the regular release of the mold. This version was only available in a pack with an unchanged Deluxe Class [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]].

{{-}}
====Leader Class toys====
[[Image:MovieLeader OptimusPrime toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Y'think Prime got a makeover? We have it on good authority that Movie [[Roller]] is a kicked-out low-rider with a jammin' sound system and neon-purple undercarriage lighting.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-01'''
**''Accessories:'' Removable Ion blaster, 1 missile

: The largest ''Movie'' Optimus Prime toy, Leader Class Optimus Prime featured, at the time, the most accurate representation of the CGI designs' complex transformation sequence. He transforms into a heavily-customized [http://www.peterbilt.com/index_gal_mod_desc.asp?model=model379 Peterbilt 379] conventional extended-hood, and unusually for a mainline figure, he has rubber tires on all his wheels. His Ion Blaster weapon is stored in the rear of the truck's bunk, exposed like an engine block. Though Optimus has no trailer, he has a hole where the fifth wheel (known among fans as a 'hitch') is sculpted in the rear of the truck, should owners find a suitable trailer to use. Due to [[For safety reasons|safety reasons]], the tips of his long smokestacks are made of rubber. A switch on top of the cab roof activates horn sounds and window lights.

: Featuring a complex transformation, essentially the front and back ends of the truck fold and converge to become Optimus Prime's legs, as much of the truck rear is connected to the robot thighs via a series of folding panels. The rear wheel cowlings feature a hinge joint in the middle of them so they do not impede his knee articulation. The rear cabin of the cab, directly connected to the smokestacks, rotate and connect to his torso and unfold into his arms. As with most mainline Movie toys, Optimus Prime features [[Automorph]] gimmicks, and due to his pricepoint has three of them. Firstly, during initial transformation, rotating his front fenders to become his heels flips the top parts of the grill to become his toes. Secondly, sliding out the double-barrel cannon in his right forearm flips out his spring-loaded Ion Blaster, which lands into place for his right hand. (The Ion Blaster can actually be popped off his forearm fairly easily, held in place by a simple clip.) Optimus' final Automorph, located in his torso, is activated by flipping the silver lever on his stomach activating a series of spring-loaded actions where the truck windows are pushed apart, and the lever between them is raised, enabling the head to spring up from the chest cavity. At this point yellow LEDs light up the chest windows and Optimus Prime's eyes, accompanied by a 'powering up' sound effect.

: Optimus Prime has a wide range of articulation for a relatively bulky figure. He has ratcheting joints in his shoulders, elbows, hips and knees, with swivel joints and ball joints supporting them in his biceps, lower knee joints and ankles. Again, unusually for a mainline figure, especially at the Leader pricepoint, his hands have individually articulated fingers and thumbs.

*'''Optimus Prime bonus pack''' (Costco exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

:A Costco exclusive special pack of Leader Class Optimus Prime with Legends Class [[Bumblebee (Movie) toys|Bumblebee]] and [[Jazz (Movie)|Autobot Jazz]] as bonus figures. None of the three toys is changed from their respective original releases.

*'''Chrome Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Removable Ion blaster, 1 missile

: Two custom-made pieces (presented in robot and vehicle mode) by the [[Hasbro]] ''Transformers'' team as the grand prize for G4TV and [http://www.jumpcut.com Jumpcut]'s contest for fans to remix selected Transformers clips. Won by [http://www.TFW2005.com/ TFW2005.com] member James Zahn, this one of a kind (well, two of a kind) piece is an almost fully [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metallized]] Leader class Optimus Prime in red, silver and blue (based heavily upon ''Generation 1'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]), presented with a custom display base with an embossed silver Autobot insignia and a perspex display case.

:It is certainly one of the rarest Transformers toys ever, and unless you are James, you will never own one.

{{-}}
*'''Nightwatch Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Removable Ion blaster, 1 missile

[[Image:Movie Leader Nightwatch OptimusPrime 2007.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Either this is [[Ultra Magnus (disambiguation)|Ultra Magnus]] or [[Nemesis Prime (disambiguation)|Nemesis Prime]].]]
: The first Nightwatch Optimus Prime is an extensive redeco of the previously released Leader-class Optimus Prime, replacing most of his red and blue with different shades of blue and black. In fact, he resembles the original [[Diaclone]] Powered Convoy color scheme of ''Generation 1'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]]'s truck cab. The previously blue and red flames have been replaced with silver flames, as has various other decos, replaced by copper.

: This version was released in the UK several months before the ''AllSpark Power'' version. Available exclusively through Argos stores, it came in an American-style box with the original Movie packaging design.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Leader Nightwatch OptimusPrime 2008.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Ultra Prime or Nemesis Magnus?]]
*'''Nightwatch Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, USA 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Removable Ion blaster, 1 missile

: The second Nightwatch Optimus Prime was released as part of the "[[AllSpark Power]]" second half of the Movie line. He is similar to the UK version of Nightwatch Prime, replacing most of his red and blue with different shades of blue and black, retaining his resemblance to Diaclone Powered Convoy in most respects. However, the subdued black and copper on the first Nightwatch Prime have been replaced with gold and a ''very'' bright blue, to signify the All Spark energy affecting the Transformers. The translucent parts were also cast in purple translucent plastic instead of black translucent plastic.

: Another difference is that this version comes in an ''AllSpark Power''-style box instead of the original style.

{{-}}
[[Image:Premium movie OP.jpg|right|250px|thumb|[[Cyclonus (G1)|Bunny-ears]] Prime.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' ("Premium Series" Leader Class, 2008)
8*''Accessories:'' Detachable, Retractable "energy sword"

: The Premium Series Optimus Prime is both a retool and a redeco of the Leader Class Optimus Prime toy. The major selling point is a more movie-accurate headsculpt with longer ears and detailing based on the final CG head design, and a flip-out energy sword to replace the ion blaster that was included with previous versions of the toy. This energy sword is detachable and attaches where the Ion Blaster did, compatible with non-premium Optimus Prime leader class based releases. Because his ears are much longer, the truck roof panel that hides his head now has two holes cut into so the head can fit inside the cabin.

:The paint deco is... unfocused, to say the least. In vehicle mode, the grill, headlights, bumps (thus his feet) are painted silver, yet the red in the small Autobot insignia has been removed. There is silver paint on the fuel tanks (toy battery cover), but not on the other tool boxes and equipment in the same location. There is also silver paint on all 6 wheel rims, the air cleaners and the windscreen visor. In robot mode the silver paint is mainly located on his thighs and crotch, though in order to save on costs, the dark blue and gold paint on his thighs and knee joints have been sacrificed.

: Unlike the initial ''Premium Series'' toys, this one was available as part of the regular mass retail Leader Class assortment.

[[Image:Movie Leader OptimusPrimeBattleMode.jpg|right|250px|thumb|He loves his lips so much, he won't let anyone sculpt them on his toys.]]
*'''Optimus Prime Battle Mode''' (Leader Class, 2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-21'''
**''Accessories:'' Detachable, Retractable "energy sword"

:The TakaraTomy version of Premium Series Optimus Prime has a considerably different deco to Hasbro's release. Similar to the unique chrome Optimus Prime, Optimus Prime Battle Mode features vacuum-metallized parts for nearly all of the silver truck parts, for a greater resemblance to the polished chrome on the real prop trucks. Unfortunately, as his feet are the front fenders and grill, this will likely lead to chipping. In robot mode he retains several decos that were removed from Hasbro's Premium Optimus Prime for cost reasons, such as the blue and gold decos on his thighs. Finally, the flip-out energy sword is coloured gold to reflect its "powered up" appearance.

* '''Leader for the Ages''' (Wal*Mart exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 1 gun, 1 Missile

: This Wal*Mart-[[Exclusive|exclusive]] two-pack contains the ''Fast Action Battler'' Power Hook Optimus Prime toy, designated "2007 Optimus Prime", and the ''[[Classics (2006)|Classics]]'' [[Optimus Prime (G1) toys|Optimus Prime]] toy from ''The Ultimate Battle'' DVD two-pack. Both toys are identical to their normal individual releases.

: For some reason the ''Classics'' Optimus toy is designated "1984 Optimus Prime" on the packaging, even though it was released in 2006... but, well, he ''looks'' like Prime from '84, so hey, what the hell.

{{-}}
[[Image:Mov2007-toy FAB FireBlastPrime.JPG|right|250px|thumb|]]
*'''Fire Blast Optimus Prime''' (Fast Action Battler, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' 1 Missile

: Fire Blast Optimus Prime is a [[Redeco|redeco]] of the previously released Power Hook Optimus Prime fast action battler. The color scheme is loosely based upon ''Generation 1'' [[Hot Rod (G1)|Rodimus Prime]], explained rather oddly in the card bio as being the camouflage Optimus took while hunting Decepticons on Mars post-movie. ...Because there are so many longnose cabs driving around Mars. Yeah.

{{-}}
====Cyber Slammers toys====
[[Image:Movie_CyberSlammers_Prime_toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Cyber Slammer, 2007)

: [[Cyber Slammer]]s Optimus Prime is an amazingly cute truck that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along for a while, then snaps back up into robot mode. Sure to please the toddler you brought with you to the PG-13 movie! Like most Cyber Slammers, Prime manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

====Robot Replicas====
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Robot Replica, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Ion blaster arm

[[Image:Optimusprimemovierobotreplicas.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Sword attachment arm sadly not included.]]
: As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] line, this version of Optimus is a non-transforming action figure that utilizes [[Revoltech]]-style jointing. The sculpt hews much closer to the movie CGI model than is possible with the full transforming toys, plus the universal jointing of the line allows for his forearm to be replaced with his hand-cannon... or bits from other Robot Replicas.

{{-}}
====Trans-Scanning====
*'''Optimus Prime''' (2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TS-01'''
**''Accessories:'' Display stand

: [[Trans-scan|Trans-scanning]] Optimus Prime is a Japanese-exclusive figure with many interchangeable parts. At its most basic, the figure is a spindly skeleton referred to as a "Core Body". To this skeleton, two sets of armor pieces can be attached to create one of two forms for Optimus Prime: his [[Protoform|protoform]] mode or his Earth mode.

: The protoform mode consists of eight pieces of metallic blue plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be manipulated in a manner that might charitably be called "transformation" into his meteor-like "entry mode," accomplished by doing little more than tucking the head out of sight and folding the chest back. This blue-and-grey lump can be mounted on a three-piece stand that comes with the figure, allowing you to display it in mid-plummet. Optimus Prime's Earth mode, meanwhile, is made up of many armor pieces (including a particularly large backpack) that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a truck approximating a Peterbilt 379. We would go into what an abominable, unintuitive, parts-massaging ''mess'' this transformation is, but we wouldn't want to fill up the rest of the page.

: Optimus Prime also includes a pair of interchangeable, open-palmed hands that can be swapped out for the clenched fists that are in place in-package. The Core Body mold was re-used for the simultaneously released Trans-Scanning [[Bumblebee (Movie) toys#Trans-Scanning|Bumblebee]] figure.

{{-}}
====Other toys====
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Cake topper, 2007)

: Yes, a cake topper. This toy was only available by purchasing a ''Transformers''-brand cake (or set of 24 cupcakes) with delicious blue-and-red flame-pattern frosting. The toy transforms from semi cab to robot.

{{-}}
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Spychanger, 2007)

:This toy is a redeco of ''[[Robots in Disguise (toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' Spychanger [[Scourge (RID)|Scourge]], painted to resemble ''Movie'' Optimus Prime. Of note is the [[Tampograph|tampographed]] detailing on his chest resembling ''Movie'' Prime's distinctive chest design. He was only available exclusively in Japan with a pre-order for the ''[[Transformers (2007)|Transformers]]'' DVD and HD-DVD.

{{-}}
====Micro IR ''Transformers'' Cars====
[[Image:Movie OptimusPrime MicroIR.jpg|right|150px|thumb|That gun doesn't look very safe...]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (2007)

: Made under license by [[RadioShack]]. The three-function infrared remote, in Optimus Prime's signature colors, gives you control of the truck with forward and reverse turn movement. More than just a truck styled after the Movie character, it also transforms to robot mode. The top of the gun-shaped IR remote serves as a display stand, though the gun itself can't stand freely. The tip of the gun can also unscrews to reveal a hidden ball-point pen.

{{-}}
===Titanium Series===
[[Image:Movie TitaniumRM Prime.jpg|right|130px|thumb|"Groovy!"]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (3" Robot Masters, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Movie-style Autobot sigil display stand.

: Partially constructed of die-cast metal, this small three inch figurine of Optimus Prime has a CGI-accurate sculpt compared to the larger toys, owing to the fact it does not need to transform at all. He is sculpted with his Ion Blaster in his right fist, and is articulated at the neck, shoulders and waist. He comes with a small movie-style Autobot sigil display stand.

{{-}}
*'''Ultimate Optimus Prime 3-Pack''' (3" Robot Masters multi-pack, 2007)

: This Target-exclusive set contains the normal 3" [[Titanium Series]] Optimus Prime figurine (see above), a Protoform Optimus Prime figurine, and Optimus Prime in his Earth-mode truck form, making this the first time a character has appeared in their alternate mode as part of the Robot Masters sub-series.

*'''Optimus Prime Voice Changer''' (2007)

:A highly CG-accurate sculpt of Optimus Prime's head with a built in voice-changer. It also has several sound effects and quotes from the movie. The voice-changer has three settings, giving more accurate alteration of the user's voice (though this is still debatable; most voice changing technology is pretty crummy, at least in toys). Much like the Ultimate Bumblebee figure, this toy will hate your wallet too. While it only costs 30 bucks, if it's anything like another Hasbro voice changer, it will suck batteries up like they were [[Energon Cube|some kind of square candy holder.]]

: There are two versions of the voice changer helmet with two different pre-recorded voices. An earlier release features a voice similar to [[Garry Chalk]], while the later release features the voice of [[Peter Cullen]]. The latter version has modified packaging under the 'Try Me!' blurb, stating it has 'Real Movie Voice!', though the updated version has also appeared in the original packaging without the 'Real Movie Voice!' notice.

*'''Optimus Prime Battle Rig Blaster''' (2007)
**''Accessories:''

:The Optimus Prime Battle Rig Blaster transforms from a superdeformed amalgamation of his ''Movie'' truck and G1 Optimus Prime's truck (indeed pulling G1 Prime's trailer) to a fully G1 robotic forearm and hand with a built in Nerf style gun. By simply placing your hand inside the back of the trailer (I need an adult!) and pulling back on the front of the truck, the gun transforms and folds back into a weapon. It comes with three [[Nerf]] N-Strike size whistle darts which can be stored inside the trailer. Although not shown in the image, the truck front splits in half in gun-mode, while the grille acts as a sight. This toy was marketed as 'Optimus Prime Big Rig Blaster' overseas.

:The BK tie in toy of Optimus Prime is essentially two toys in one. The first part of the toy consists of two truck halves, which snap together around a sculpted robot mode Optimus Prime. The truck is squat, and primarily blue, with outbursts of chalk gray paint and red flames. Pulling back and letting go activates the gimmick: Prime "drives" forward and bursts from the truck mode, "transformed" to robot mode. This gimmick has marginal success.

:The "robot mode" of Optimus Prime is where the pullback motor and working wheels of the toys lie. Optimus is sculpted in blue plastic, pre-posed in an odd crouching pose with zero points of articulation. His right knee is bent back, with his right arm touching his knee, while the left side has the leg forward and the left hand holding onto his butt. The toy is as sparsely painted as the truck, with light blue eyes and chest windows, gray hands and feet among other parts, and red forearms. Two panels on his back have red flame tongues on them.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (2007)
**''Model Number'': '''6000182'''

: Optimus Prime is one of the first Transformers characters licensed by [[RadioShack]] for their ZipZaps line of pocket-size radio control cars. As a ZipZap, Optimus can be customized, trimmed, and tuned with any other accessories available for the brand. He has working headlights and requires four "AAA" batteries for the charger.

====Battling Robots Bubble Bath====
[[Image:Optimus prime bubblebath.jpg|right|120px|thumb|Great skin is the right of all sentient beings.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (2007)

:Optimus Prime's torso attaches to the bottle of bubble bath. His elbows bend, and his arms have a punching gimmick, to allow him to battle evil even in the shower. Pushing a lever on either side makes the respective fist punch forward. He's removable, though not as easily held without the bottle below his waist.

====Basic Fun====
*'''Articulated keychain''' (2007)

: Produced by [[Basic Fun]], this keychain is a likeness of Optimus Prime's robot mode with articulated arms, legs, head, waist, and a keyring sticking out of his ass.

*'''Slide puzzle keychain''' (2007)

: Produced by Basic Fun, this keychain is a likeness of Optimus Prime's robot mode attached to a sliding puzzle frame. The puzzle itself is the Autobot symbol.

*'''Talking keychain''' (2007)

: Produced by Basic Fun, this keychain features several clips of Prime's voice.

*'''Projector carabiner''' (2007)

: Yet another Basic Fun joint, this is a carabiner that shines a Bat-Signal like image of Optimus Prime onto a flat surface. Neat.
====Transformers Movie Danglers====

*'''Optimus Prime''' (2007)

:Released by [[Tomy Yujin]] in November 2007 as part of the [[Danglers Collection]], this toy is a weird plastic [[Super-deformed|super-deformed]] version of Optimus Prime that pops out his vehicle mode when you squeeze him. This little figurine has a little strap on it so that it can be put on cell phones or portable gaming devices.

===Robot Heroes===
[[Image:RH Prime vs Blackout.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Booga-booga!]]
*'''Optimus Prime vs. Blackout''' (2007)

: Packaged with [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]], Optimus Prime is the standard [[Robot Heroes|Robot Hero]] style of cute and cuddly. His arm is in the Ion Cannon mode, and unlike many Robot Heroes, he's not crouching. He's highly posable for a Robot Hero figure, featuring four points of articulation: both shoulders swivel, his neck turns, and he has a waist joint. This toy was later redecoed into Best Buy Exclusive "Battle Damage" Optimus Prime and Walmart Exclusive "Allspark Power" Optimus Prime.

{{-}}
[[Image:Rhscorpprime.jpg|right|150px|thumb|He's cute as he violently decapitates [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|rage-filled mechanoids]].]]
*'''Optimus Prime vs. Scorponok''' (2007)

: Packaged with [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]], Optimus Prime is now brandishing his sword arm weapon instead of the Ion Cannon. Sadly, the weapon is not film-accurate, being silver instead of orange. Notably, this is the only piece of Optimus Prime merchandise to have a mouth instead of a mouthplate. It is articulated at the neck and shoulders.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie RobotHeroes BestBuy Cliffjumper OptimusPrime.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Otherwise known as Needs-a-Bathimus Prime.]]
*'''"Battle Damage" Optimus Prime & Cliffjumper''' (Best Buy Movie DVD Exclusives)

: Packaged with [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]], this is a redeco of the first Robot Heroes figure in a battle damage paint job. It has all the articulation of the initial release, and boasts an extensive amount of paint apps, including a thorough "dirt wash" on the entire toy. It was sold exclusively in Best Buy stores, packaged with the two-disc special edition of [[Transformers (2007)|film]]

{{-}}
[[Image:Robotheroesfinalbattle.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Remember that part of the movie where Prime glows blue with Allspark Power?]]
*'''The Final Battle''' (2008)

: Packaged with redecoed versions of Autobot Jazz, Autobot Ratchet, Blackout, and Megatron. It retains all four points of articulation. The new deco is very similar to the original, but with added outbursts of Allspark Blue paint. The five-pack was sold exclusively at Wal*Mart.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie RobotHeroes BarricadeVsOptimusPrime.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Two-fisted justice!]]
*'''Optimus Prime vs. Barricade''' (2008)

: Packaged with [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]], this is the first Optimus Prime Robot Heroes figure to be unarmed. Sculpted in a two-fisted stance akin to the one he had when first arriving in Mission City, it boasts sharper sculpted detail than its predecessors. Articulation is the standard three points: both shoulders and his head.

{{-}}
*'''Optimus Prime & Blackout''' (2009)

:Mirroring the very first ''Movie'' Robot Heroes Optimus Prime pack, he comes with Blackout. While Blackout is a [[Redeco|redeco]] of the previous mold, Optimus Prime is an all-new sculpt with two swords, reflecting the other Optimus Prime toys in the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' toyline.

{{comingsoontoy}}

*'''Battle for the Allspark''' (2009)

:Packaged in a set depicting the battle in [[Mission City]] with [[Brawl (Movie)|Decepticon Brawl]], [[Ratchet (Movie)|Autobot Ratchet]], [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]], plus new figures of [[Sam Witwicky]], [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] in fighter mode and Bumblebee in vehicle mode, this is the first Optimus Prime Robot Heroes figurine in vehicle mode. He has a very big behind.

Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys

2009-04-19T23:54:43Z

71.98.75.238: /* Transformers Movie Danglers */

[[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] starred in a movie that made millions of dollars. Woohoo!

==Toys==
===Transformers (2007)===
As a tribute to his immense popularity, Optimus Prime is the only ''Movie'' Transformer with a toy in every regular category (Legend, Fast Action, Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader.) This is excluding his Cyber Stomper and transformable gun toys.

====Legends Class toys====
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Legends Class, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Optimus Prime'''

[[Image:Movie Legends Prime toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Shortening the smokestacks is good; [[For safety reasons|it makes the toy safer]]. But removing ONE and keeping the other? Crazy.]]
: Legends class Optimus Prime is an ''extremely'' simplified toy of the extremely complex movie design. As such, he features numerous unavoidable inaccuracies, such as not transforming or even looking very much like the original design or the larger toy versions in robot mode. However, proportionally Legends class Optimus Prime is not far off from the real truck and the Leader class toy's vehicle mode, aside from missing a smokestack on the driver's side. He is articulated at the shoulders and upper legs via [[Ball joint|ball joints]].

{{-}}
*'''Generations Legends''' (Target exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

[[Image:TargetGenerationsLegends.jpg|right|thumb|150px|"Say, have we met?" "No, I'm not from around here." "I can tell. You look ''way'' more realistic than I do."]]

: A Target exclusive, this four-pack of Legends Class figures contains two versions of both Optimus Prime and Megatron, namely [[Optimus Prime (Armada) toys|Legends of Cybertron Optimus Prime]], Movie Legends Optimus Prime, [[Megatron (Armada) toys|Legends of Cybertron Megatron]] and [[Megatron (Movie)|Movie Legends Megatron]].

{{-}}
*'''Battle for the Allspark''' (Toys'R'Us exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

[[Image:Movie Allspark Legends pack.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Get ready for the safety recall, folks.]]
: A Toys'R'Us exclusive, this six-pack of Legends class figures contains unmodified toys of Optimus Prime, [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]], [[Bumblebee (Movie) toys|Bumblebee]], [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]], [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] and [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]].

{{-}}
*'''Nightwatch Optimus Prime vs. Stealth Starscream''' (Legends Allspark Battles two-pack, 2008)

: The previously-released Legends Class Optimus Prime toy is redecoed to match the Leader class Nightwatch Optimus Prime deco. He comes with a predominantly black and silver redeco of [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]].

====Deluxe Class toys====
[[Image:Movie ProtoformOptimusPrime toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Until I find my feet, I have to use these giant robot hands.]]
*'''Protoform Optimus Prime''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-05'''
**''Accessories:'' Gun with flame attachment

:Based upon the "[[Protoform]]" (Cybertronian) appearances of the Transformers in the Movie, Protoform Optimus Prime transforms into his "entry" mode. This mode somewhat resembles a cybertronic truck, with false wheels sculpted onto the sides, and Optimus Prime's trademark windows in front. A flame decoration piece fits to the back of the "vehicle", creating the illusion of a flaming comet's tail. The bottom of the vehicle has small wheels to roll the toy across smooth surfaces. Oddly, it has NO [[Automorph|automorph]] gimmick at all, a feature most main-line figures have.

:In robot mode he resembles previous Optimus characters: his angular chest windows are reminiscent of ''[[Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]], while his near-animalistic limbs and color scheme are evocative of ''[[Beast Wars (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' [[Optimus Primal]]. He has excellent articulation due to his many ball joints, and is armed with a rifle. The flame attachment can fit onto the end of the (non-firing) gun barrel.

:Some packaging variants of this figure (perhaps a Wal-Mart exclusive) included a free movie poster depicting a Cybertronian eye overlooking Earth. While an added sticker to the outer plastic bubble says "Exclusive movie poster!", it is more of a preview of upcoming figures.

{{-}}
*'''Protoform Optimus Prime Fusion Cluster Edition''' (C3xHobby Convention exclusive Deluxe, Japan 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Gun with missile and flame attachment

:An extensive redeco of the Protoform Optimus Prime mold that was exclusively available at the Japanese C3xHobby Convention in August of 2007, and later offered by [[E-Hobby|e-Hobby]] in limited quantities. Most of the body is made out of transparent turquoise plastic in order to mimic its frozen state in the "coldness" of space, while orange paint is used on the front end of the "entry" mode, mimicking the heat effects of sudden atmospheric entry. The flame attachment is made out of clear ''blue'' plastic, with the tail end being covered in ''gold'' paint.

{{-}}
*'''Deluxe three-pack''' (multi-pack, UK 2007)

:This three-pack, which was available at general retail in the United Kingdom, contains an unchanged Deluxe Class Protoform Optimus Prime together with equally unchanged Deluxe Class [[Brawl (Movie)|Decepticon Brawl]] and [[Jazz (Movie)|Autobot Jazz]] toys.

====Voyager Class toys====
[[Image:Movie Voyager OptimusPrime toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|The last one of you out of here gets a...gets a lead salad!]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Voyager Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-13'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

:The mid-range Voyager class ''Movie'' Optimus Prime toy transforms into an amalgamation of the Kenworth W900 and the Peterbilt 379, making this toy fairly inaccurate to the actual vehicle Optimus Prime turned into. Because of the smaller size and lessened complexity, the Voyager class Optimus Prime features a significantly different transformation sequence compared to the Leader class toy, and indeed, the actual CGI design. However, as the actual truck cabin no longer forms his chest, the cabin now features a small interior with opening doors and a non-removable cowboy-hat-bedecked driver figurine that flips out of the seat when the driver's side door is opened.

: In robot mode, Voyager class Optimus Prime is proportionally more accurate to his CGI design than the leader class toy and has a more accurate headsculpt. However, due to the aforementioned lessened complexity, significant sacrifices had to be made, such as "cheats" to the transformation sequence to achieve this. He is thus less accurate overall than he initially appears. In addition to previously mentioned changes, he carries much of the truck's front hood, grill and fenders on his back like a backpack. Nevertheless, he maintains a superb level of articulation and posability.

: Optimus Prime is armed with two large rifles formed out of a combination of both smokestacks and fuel tanks. These rifles peg into his lower arms with grips for his open hands. The under-slung fuel tanks can fire spring-loaded projectiles. In vehicle mode, both smokestack rifles can be deployed as twin cannons, and this mechanism can also be used to store the rifles and deploy them as shoulder guns in robot mode.

[[Image:Movie Robovision OptimusPrime toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|We'd hate to see what those smokestacks looked like BEFORE Hasbro shortened them.]]
*'''Robo-Vision Optimus Prime''' (Voyager, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

: A Target-[[Exclusive|exclusive]] repaint of the Voyager Class Optimus Prime toy, this limited edition version boasts a "Supermetal finish", resulting in silver metallic paint covering much of his paintable gray/silver plastic, a much higher contrast in his red and blue plastic colors and improved 'flame' paint decorations.

: Unusually for the smaller Voyager Class of toys, [[Robo-Vision]] Optimus Prime comes packed in robot mode in a special hexagonal column box with many windows, similar to the original packaging for ''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime. The package also includes a [[Robo-Vision Decoder]]. Strangely, this Target exclusive preceded the release of the regular Voyager by a large margin, coming out on [[June 2]], 2007 with the initial wave of movie toys.

:This toy has been retroactively declared part of the ''Premium Series'' of more [[Show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] redecos of core characters from the movie.

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee and Optimus Prime''' (Argos exclusive two-pack, UK 2007)

:A two-pack, exclusiveliy available at Argos stores in the United Kingdom, which contains an unchanged Voyager Class Optimus Prime and an equally unchanged Deluxe Class Concept Camaro [[Bumblebee (Movie) toys|Bumblebee]].

{{-}}
*'''Battle damage three-pack''' (Sam's Club exclusive three-pack, 2007)

:A three-pack, exclusive to Sam's Club stores, consisting of redecos of Voyager Class Optimus Prime and Deluxe Class [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee]], both with a battle damage deco, and an unchanged Voyager Class [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Voyager Firststrike OptimusPrime.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Think the [[Geewun|Geewunners]] will shut up now?]]
*'''First Strike Optimus Prime''' (Voyager Class, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

: Released as part of the ''Allspark Power'' refresh of the movie line, First Strike Optimus Prime is a extensive redeco of Voyager class Optimus Prime in a colour scheme based upon ''Generation 1'' and ''Classics'' Optimus Prime. The included toy bio describes this coloring as Prime paying tribute to the markings he wore as a young soldier when the war began. Due to the transformation scheme, this figure actually ends up being ''less'' like its G1 counterpart in robot mode, a sacrifice made for the slavish redeco of the vehicle mode. You can't have your cake and eat it too, folks.

{{-}}
*'''Autobot Optimus Prime''' ("international market" exclusive Voyager-sized toy, 2008)

:A single-packed version of the battle damaged Voyager Optimus Prime toy from the Sam's Club exclusive three-pack. Although the assortment number and the general packaging style seemed to indicate that this might be a Best Buy exclusive, this has been confirmed to be an "international market" exclusive. It has been released in Asia, but will presumably not be available in the USA outside the Sam's Club three-pack.

{{-}}
*'''Freeway Brawl Optimus Prime (Two-Pack)''' ("Screen Battles" Voyager, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

: A second Target-[[Exclusive|exclusive]] repaint of the Voyager Class Optimus Prime toy, the grey molded pieces now are beige-grey and multiple parts that previously molded blue and red (the chest, shoulder pads, and leg interiors) had their mold colors swapped with extra [[Paint application|paint applications]] to make up the difference. As such, the toy has very few visual differences from the regular release of the mold. This version was only available in a pack with an unchanged Deluxe Class [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]].

{{-}}
====Leader Class toys====
[[Image:MovieLeader OptimusPrime toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Y'think Prime got a makeover? We have it on good authority that Movie [[Roller]] is a kicked-out low-rider with a jammin' sound system and neon-purple undercarriage lighting.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-01'''
**''Accessories:'' Removable Ion blaster, 1 missile

: The largest ''Movie'' Optimus Prime toy, Leader Class Optimus Prime featured, at the time, the most accurate representation of the CGI designs' complex transformation sequence. He transforms into a heavily-customized [http://www.peterbilt.com/index_gal_mod_desc.asp?model=model379 Peterbilt 379] conventional extended-hood, and unusually for a mainline figure, he has rubber tires on all his wheels. His Ion Blaster weapon is stored in the rear of the truck's bunk, exposed like an engine block. Though Optimus has no trailer, he has a hole where the fifth wheel (known among fans as a 'hitch') is sculpted in the rear of the truck, should owners find a suitable trailer to use. Due to [[For safety reasons|safety reasons]], the tips of his long smokestacks are made of rubber. A switch on top of the cab roof activates horn sounds and window lights.

: Featuring a complex transformation, essentially the front and back ends of the truck fold and converge to become Optimus Prime's legs, as much of the truck rear is connected to the robot thighs via a series of folding panels. The rear wheel cowlings feature a hinge joint in the middle of them so they do not impede his knee articulation. The rear cabin of the cab, directly connected to the smokestacks, rotate and connect to his torso and unfold into his arms. As with most mainline Movie toys, Optimus Prime features [[Automorph]] gimmicks, and due to his pricepoint has three of them. Firstly, during initial transformation, rotating his front fenders to become his heels flips the top parts of the grill to become his toes. Secondly, sliding out the double-barrel cannon in his right forearm flips out his spring-loaded Ion Blaster, which lands into place for his right hand. (The Ion Blaster can actually be popped off his forearm fairly easily, held in place by a simple clip.) Optimus' final Automorph, located in his torso, is activated by flipping the silver lever on his stomach activating a series of spring-loaded actions where the truck windows are pushed apart, and the lever between them is raised, enabling the head to spring up from the chest cavity. At this point yellow LEDs light up the chest windows and Optimus Prime's eyes, accompanied by a 'powering up' sound effect.

: Optimus Prime has a wide range of articulation for a relatively bulky figure. He has ratcheting joints in his shoulders, elbows, hips and knees, with swivel joints and ball joints supporting them in his biceps, lower knee joints and ankles. Again, unusually for a mainline figure, especially at the Leader pricepoint, his hands have individually articulated fingers and thumbs.

*'''Optimus Prime bonus pack''' (Costco exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

:A Costco exclusive special pack of Leader Class Optimus Prime with Legends Class [[Bumblebee (Movie) toys|Bumblebee]] and [[Jazz (Movie)|Autobot Jazz]] as bonus figures. None of the three toys is changed from their respective original releases.

*'''Chrome Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Removable Ion blaster, 1 missile

: Two custom-made pieces (presented in robot and vehicle mode) by the [[Hasbro]] ''Transformers'' team as the grand prize for G4TV and [http://www.jumpcut.com Jumpcut]'s contest for fans to remix selected Transformers clips. Won by [http://www.TFW2005.com/ TFW2005.com] member James Zahn, this one of a kind (well, two of a kind) piece is an almost fully [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metallized]] Leader class Optimus Prime in red, silver and blue (based heavily upon ''Generation 1'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]), presented with a custom display base with an embossed silver Autobot insignia and a perspex display case.

:It is certainly one of the rarest Transformers toys ever, and unless you are James, you will never own one.

{{-}}
*'''Nightwatch Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Removable Ion blaster, 1 missile

[[Image:Movie Leader Nightwatch OptimusPrime 2007.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Either this is [[Ultra Magnus (disambiguation)|Ultra Magnus]] or [[Nemesis Prime (disambiguation)|Nemesis Prime]].]]
: The first Nightwatch Optimus Prime is an extensive redeco of the previously released Leader-class Optimus Prime, replacing most of his red and blue with different shades of blue and black. In fact, he resembles the original [[Diaclone]] Powered Convoy color scheme of ''Generation 1'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]]'s truck cab. The previously blue and red flames have been replaced with silver flames, as has various other decos, replaced by copper.

: This version was released in the UK several months before the ''AllSpark Power'' version. Available exclusively through Argos stores, it came in an American-style box with the original Movie packaging design.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Leader Nightwatch OptimusPrime 2008.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Ultra Prime or Nemesis Magnus?]]
*'''Nightwatch Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, USA 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Removable Ion blaster, 1 missile

: The second Nightwatch Optimus Prime was released as part of the "[[AllSpark Power]]" second half of the Movie line. He is similar to the UK version of Nightwatch Prime, replacing most of his red and blue with different shades of blue and black, retaining his resemblance to Diaclone Powered Convoy in most respects. However, the subdued black and copper on the first Nightwatch Prime have been replaced with gold and a ''very'' bright blue, to signify the All Spark energy affecting the Transformers. The translucent parts were also cast in purple translucent plastic instead of black translucent plastic.

: Another difference is that this version comes in an ''AllSpark Power''-style box instead of the original style.

{{-}}
[[Image:Premium movie OP.jpg|right|250px|thumb|[[Cyclonus (G1)|Bunny-ears]] Prime.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' ("Premium Series" Leader Class, 2008)
8*''Accessories:'' Detachable, Retractable "energy sword"

: The Premium Series Optimus Prime is both a retool and a redeco of the Leader Class Optimus Prime toy. The major selling point is a more movie-accurate headsculpt with longer ears and detailing based on the final CG head design, and a flip-out energy sword to replace the ion blaster that was included with previous versions of the toy. This energy sword is detachable and attaches where the Ion Blaster did, compatible with non-premium Optimus Prime leader class based releases. Because his ears are much longer, the truck roof panel that hides his head now has two holes cut into so the head can fit inside the cabin.

:The paint deco is... unfocused, to say the least. In vehicle mode, the grill, headlights, bumps (thus his feet) are painted silver, yet the red in the small Autobot insignia has been removed. There is silver paint on the fuel tanks (toy battery cover), but not on the other tool boxes and equipment in the same location. There is also silver paint on all 6 wheel rims, the air cleaners and the windscreen visor. In robot mode the silver paint is mainly located on his thighs and crotch, though in order to save on costs, the dark blue and gold paint on his thighs and knee joints have been sacrificed.

: Unlike the initial ''Premium Series'' toys, this one was available as part of the regular mass retail Leader Class assortment.

[[Image:Movie Leader OptimusPrimeBattleMode.jpg|right|250px|thumb|He loves his lips so much, he won't let anyone sculpt them on his toys.]]
*'''Optimus Prime Battle Mode''' (Leader Class, 2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-21'''
**''Accessories:'' Detachable, Retractable "energy sword"

:The TakaraTomy version of Premium Series Optimus Prime has a considerably different deco to Hasbro's release. Similar to the unique chrome Optimus Prime, Optimus Prime Battle Mode features vacuum-metallized parts for nearly all of the silver truck parts, for a greater resemblance to the polished chrome on the real prop trucks. Unfortunately, as his feet are the front fenders and grill, this will likely lead to chipping. In robot mode he retains several decos that were removed from Hasbro's Premium Optimus Prime for cost reasons, such as the blue and gold decos on his thighs. Finally, the flip-out energy sword is coloured gold to reflect its "powered up" appearance.

**''Accessories:'' 1 gun, 1 Missile

: This Wal*Mart-[[Exclusive|exclusive]] two-pack contains the ''Fast Action Battler'' Power Hook Optimus Prime toy, designated "2007 Optimus Prime", and the ''[[Classics (2006)|Classics]]'' [[Optimus Prime (G1) toys|Optimus Prime]] toy from ''The Ultimate Battle'' DVD two-pack. Both toys are identical to their normal individual releases.

: For some reason the ''Classics'' Optimus toy is designated "1984 Optimus Prime" on the packaging, even though it was released in 2006... but, well, he ''looks'' like Prime from '84, so hey, what the hell.

The color scheme is loosely based upon ''Generation 1'' [[Hot Rod (G1)|Rodimus Prime]], explained rather oddly in the card bio as being the camouflage Optimus took while hunting Decepticons on Mars post-movie. ...Because there are so many longnose cabs driving around Mars. Yeah.

[[Image:Movie_CyberSlammers_Prime_toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Cyber Slammer, 2007)

: [[Cyber Slammer]]s Optimus Prime is an amazingly cute truck that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along for a while, then snaps back up into robot mode. Sure to please the toddler you brought with you to the PG-13 movie! Like most Cyber Slammers, Prime manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

The sculpt hews much closer to the movie CGI model than is possible with the full transforming toys, plus the universal jointing of the line allows for his forearm to be replaced with his hand-cannon... or bits from other Robot Replicas.

====Trans-Scanning====
*'''Optimus Prime''' (2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TS-01'''
**''Accessories:'' Display stand

: [[Trans-scan|Trans-scanning]] Optimus Prime is a Japanese-exclusive figure with many interchangeable parts. At its most basic, the figure is a spindly skeleton referred to as a "Core Body". To this skeleton, two sets of armor pieces can be attached to create one of two forms for Optimus Prime: his [[Protoform|protoform]] mode or his Earth mode.

: The protoform mode consists of eight pieces of metallic blue plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be manipulated in a manner that might charitably be called "transformation" into his meteor-like "entry mode," accomplished by doing little more than tucking the head out of sight and folding the chest back. This blue-and-grey lump can be mounted on a three-piece stand that comes with the figure, allowing you to display it in mid-plummet. Optimus Prime's Earth mode, meanwhile, is made up of many armor pieces (including a particularly large backpack) that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a truck approximating a Peterbilt 379. We would go into what an abominable, unintuitive, parts-massaging ''mess'' this transformation is, but we wouldn't want to fill up the rest of the page.

: Optimus Prime also includes a pair of interchangeable, open-palmed hands that can be swapped out for the clenched fists that are in place in-package. The Core Body mold was re-used for the simultaneously released Trans-Scanning [[Bumblebee (Movie) toys#Trans-Scanning|Bumblebee]] figure.

====Other toys====
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Cake topper, 2007)

: Yes, a cake topper. This toy was only available by purchasing a ''Transformers''-brand cake (or set of 24 cupcakes) with delicious blue-and-red flame-pattern frosting. The toy transforms from semi cab to robot.

{{-}}
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Spychanger, 2007)

:This toy is a redeco of ''[[Robots in Disguise (toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' Spychanger [[Scourge (RID)|Scourge]], painted to resemble ''Movie'' Optimus Prime. Of note is the [[Tampograph|tampographed]] detailing on his chest resembling ''Movie'' Prime's distinctive chest design. He was only available exclusively in Japan with a pre-order for the ''[[Transformers (2007)|Transformers]]'' DVD and HD-DVD.

====Micro IR ''Transformers'' Cars====
[[Image:Movie OptimusPrime MicroIR.jpg|right|150px|thumb|That gun doesn't look very safe...]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (2007)

: Made under license by [[RadioShack]]. The three-function infrared remote, in Optimus Prime's signature colors, gives you control of the truck with forward and reverse turn movement. More than just a truck styled after the Movie character, it also transforms to robot mode. The top of the gun-shaped IR remote serves as a display stand, though the gun itself can't stand freely. The tip of the gun can also unscrews to reveal a hidden ball-point pen.

===Titanium Series===
[[Image:Movie TitaniumRM Prime.jpg|right|130px|thumb|"Groovy!"]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (3" Robot Masters, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Movie-style Autobot sigil display stand.

: Partially constructed of die-cast metal, this small three inch figurine of Optimus Prime has a CGI-accurate sculpt compared to the larger toys, owing to the fact it does not need to transform at all. He is sculpted with his Ion Blaster in his right fist, and is articulated at the neck, shoulders and waist. He comes with a small movie-style Autobot sigil display stand.

{{-}}
*'''Ultimate Optimus Prime 3-Pack''' (3" Robot Masters multi-pack, 2007)

: This Target-exclusive set contains the normal 3" [[Titanium Series]] Optimus Prime figurine (see above), a Protoform Optimus Prime figurine, and Optimus Prime in his Earth-mode truck form, making this the first time a character has appeared in their alternate mode as part of the Robot Masters sub-series.

**''Card number:'' '''9'''

:Optimus Prime is a 54-point "Rare" piece in the [[3D Battle-Card Game]]. Constructed of punch-out pieces from randomly packed plastic cards (two full robots per pack), he can be assembled into his truck mode or into a long-legged robot mode.

:His card construction was not reused.

===Transformers (2007)===
*'''Transformers Gummy Candy''' (2006)

:Made by the [[Frankford Candy & Chocolate Company]] at the behest of [[Hasbro]]'s Cap Candy Company unit, this large Optimus Prime-shaped [[Transformers Gummy Candy|gummy candy]] was available throughout 2006 to 2007. Also available was an [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]-shaped gummy candies.

[[Image:MoviePrime Voicechanger helmet.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Hardly ''anyone'' was wearing these damn things at [[BotCon 2007]].]]
*'''Optimus Prime Voice Changer''' (2007)

:A highly CG-accurate sculpt of Optimus Prime's head with a built in voice-changer. It also has several sound effects and quotes from the movie. The voice-changer has three settings, giving more accurate alteration of the user's voice (though this is still debatable; most voice changing technology is pretty crummy, at least in toys). Much like the Ultimate Bumblebee figure, this toy will hate your wallet too. While it only costs 30 bucks, if it's anything like another Hasbro voice changer, it will suck batteries up like they were [[Energon Cube|some kind of square candy holder.]]

: There are two versions of the voice changer helmet with two different pre-recorded voices. An earlier release features a voice similar to [[Garry Chalk]], while the later release features the voice of [[Peter Cullen]]. The latter version has modified packaging under the 'Try Me!' blurb, stating it has 'Real Movie Voice!', though the updated version has also appeared in the original packaging without the 'Real Movie Voice!' notice.

{{-}}
[[Image:MoviePrime BattleRigBlaster.jpg|right|180px|thumb|Nor carrying these!]]
*'''Optimus Prime Battle Rig Blaster''' (2007)
**''Accessories:''

:The Optimus Prime Battle Rig Blaster transforms from a superdeformed amalgamation of his ''Movie'' truck and G1 Optimus Prime's truck (indeed pulling G1 Prime's trailer) to a fully G1 robotic forearm and hand with a built in Nerf style gun. By simply placing your hand inside the back of the trailer (I need an adult!) and pulling back on the front of the truck, the gun transforms and folds back into a weapon. It comes with three [[Nerf]] N-Strike size whistle darts which can be stored inside the trailer. Although not shown in the image, the truck front splits in half in gun-mode, while the grille acts as a sight. This toy was marketed as 'Optimus Prime Big Rig Blaster' overseas.

**''Accessories:''

: An extensive [[Redeco|redeco]] of the ''[[Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Armada) toys|Optimus Prime]] role-play Blaster, this toy "transforms" basically by extending. It fires suction-cup-tipped Nerf darts and is a Wal*mart exclusive.

:This LCD game features 10 levels and a design based on Optimus Prime.

{{-}}
*'''Optimus Prime''' Burger King free toy (2007)

:The BK tie in toy of Optimus Prime is essentially two toys in one. The first part of the toy consists of two truck halves, which snap together around a sculpted robot mode Optimus Prime. The truck is squat, and primarily blue, with outbursts of chalk gray paint and red flames. Pulling back and letting go activates the gimmick: Prime "drives" forward and bursts from the truck mode, "transformed" to robot mode. This gimmick has marginal success.

:The "robot mode" of Optimus Prime is where the pullback motor and working wheels of the toys lie. Optimus is sculpted in blue plastic, pre-posed in an odd crouching pose with zero points of articulation. His right knee is bent back, with his right arm touching his knee, while the left side has the leg forward and the left hand holding onto his butt. The toy is as sparsely painted as the truck, with light blue eyes and chest windows, gray hands and feet among other parts, and red forearms. Two panels on his back have red flame tongues on them.

*'''Optimus Prime Globe''' (2007)

[[Image:Optimus Prime globe.jpg|right|150px|thumb|I'm dreaming of an Autobot Christmas...]]

[[Image:Movie OptimusPrime ZipZaps.jpg|right|150px|thumb|In Soviet Russia, Prime controls YOU!]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (2007)
**''Model Number'': '''6000182'''

: Optimus Prime is one of the first Transformers characters licensed by [[RadioShack]] for their ZipZaps line of pocket-size radio control cars. As a ZipZap, Optimus can be customized, trimmed, and tuned with any other accessories available for the brand. He has working headlights and requires four "AAA" batteries for the charger.

{{-}}
====Battling Robots Bubble Bath====
[[Image:Optimus prime bubblebath.jpg|right|120px|thumb|Great skin is the right of all sentient beings.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (2007)

:Optimus Prime's torso attaches to the bottle of bubble bath. His elbows bend, and his arms have a punching gimmick, to allow him to battle evil even in the shower. Pushing a lever on either side makes the respective fist punch forward. He's removable, though not as easily held without the bottle below his waist.

{{-}}
====Basic Fun====
*'''Articulated keychain''' (2007)

: Produced by [[Basic Fun]], this keychain is a likeness of Optimus Prime's robot mode with articulated arms, legs, head, waist, and a keyring sticking out of his ass.

*'''Slide puzzle keychain''' (2007)

: Produced by Basic Fun, this keychain is a likeness of Optimus Prime's robot mode attached to a sliding puzzle frame. The puzzle itself is the Autobot symbol.

*'''Talking keychain''' (2007)

: Produced by Basic Fun, this keychain features several clips of Prime's voice.

*'''Projector carabiner''' (2007)

: Yet another Basic Fun joint, this is a carabiner that shines a Bat-Signal like image of Optimus Prime onto a flat surface. Neat.
====Transformers Movie Danglers====

*'''Optimus Prime''' (2007)

:Released by [[Tomy Yujin]] in November 2007 as part of the [[Danglers Collection]], this toy is a weird plastic [[Super-deformed|super-deformed]] version of Optimus Prime that pops out his vehicle mode when you squeeze him.

*'''Optimus Prime vs. Blackout''' (2007)

: Packaged with [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]], Optimus Prime is the standard [[Robot Heroes|Robot Hero]] style of cute and cuddly. His arm is in the Ion Cannon mode, and unlike many Robot Heroes, he's not crouching. He's highly posable for a Robot Hero figure, featuring four points of articulation: both shoulders swivel, his neck turns, and he has a waist joint. This toy was later redecoed into Best Buy Exclusive "Battle Damage" Optimus Prime and Walmart Exclusive "Allspark Power" Optimus Prime.

{{-}}

*'''Optimus Prime vs. Scorponok''' (2007)

: Packaged with [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]], Optimus Prime is now brandishing his sword arm weapon instead of the Ion Cannon. Sadly, the weapon is not film-accurate, being silver instead of orange. Notably, this is the only piece of Optimus Prime merchandise to have a mouth instead of a mouthplate. It is articulated at the neck and shoulders.

[[Image:Movie RobotHeroes BestBuy Cliffjumper OptimusPrime.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Otherwise known as Needs-a-Bathimus Prime.]]
*'''"Battle Damage" Optimus Prime & Cliffjumper''' (Best Buy Movie DVD Exclusives)

It has all the articulation of the initial release, and boasts an extensive amount of paint apps, including a thorough "dirt wash" on the entire toy. It was sold exclusively in Best Buy stores, packaged with the two-disc special edition of [[Transformers (2007)|film]]

[[Image:Robotheroesfinalbattle.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Remember that part of the movie where Prime glows blue with Allspark Power?]]
*'''The Final Battle''' (2008)

*'''Optimus Prime vs. Barricade''' (2008)

: Packaged with [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]], this is the first Optimus Prime Robot Heroes figure to be unarmed. Sculpted in a two-fisted stance akin to the one he had when first arriving in Mission City, it boasts sharper sculpted detail than its predecessors. Articulation is the standard three points: both shoulders and his head.

{{-}}
*'''Optimus Prime & Blackout''' (2009)

:Mirroring the very first ''Movie'' Robot Heroes Optimus Prime pack, he comes with Blackout. While Blackout is a [[Redeco|redeco]] of the previous mold, Optimus Prime is an all-new sculpt with two swords, reflecting the other Optimus Prime toys in the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' toyline.

*'''Battle for the Allspark''' (2009)

He has a very big behind.

{{disambig3|Ratchet}}
:''Ratchet is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|2007 movie franchise]] in the [[Live-action film series|live-action film]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:Movie Ratchet promorender.jpg|right|300px|thumb|He's not a vanette with a siren slapped on. (Instead, he's a rescue truck with an H2 cab slapped on.)]]
'''Ratchet''', the Autobots' medic, is probably the bravest of them all. He'll risk his life to pull any wounded comrade from the battlefield. Indeed, he did not join [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]]'s team to be a soldier; rather, he's there to save lives, and thinks Prime is the best chance the universe has for peace.

A medic who dislikes violence, Ratchet's well-armed appearance is more due to being an improviser with surgical tools, such as his buzzsaw. When combat is unavoidable, he can employ these makeshift weapons with surprising agility for his size.

{{bigquote|I can't save them all. I learned that truism a long time ago, on countless battlefields. But still, no matter how many I help... a hundred, a thousand... it's the one that I fail that haunts me!|[[Transformers Comic issue 3]]}}

==Fiction==
===Titan Magazines ''Transformers'' movie comics===
Ratchet used to be a politician, Optimus Prime's chief liaison to the [[High Council of Ancients]]. He tried to find a peaceful solution to the civil war, and when this failed, he became a battlefield medic.

[[Image:Titan Ratchet offmodel.jpg|left|300px|thumb|How the crap are they missing a target ''that'' big?]]
He would later be one of three Autobots who tried to prevent Megatron from reaching the [[All Spark]]. However, they hadn't expected [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] to be demented enough to set off a foldspace warhead at pointblank range, a weapon that warped everyone to different parts of the galaxy. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2|Prelude: Megatron}} Ratchet found himself stuck in the middle of a genocidal alien war that uncomfortably mirrored Cybertron's own. By challenging and defeating [[Durguth]], the local tyrant, he became ruler of the [[Thraal]] faction. He then ordered a ceasefire and oversaw an interim alliance, effectively bringing peace to the planet single-handed. He then set up a homing beacon in the hope of getting rescued. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 3|Prelude: Ratchet}}

[[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] eventually detected the beacon, and the two began searching for Jazz when he didn't show. They rescued him from a predatory alien planet and then returned to Cybertron. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 4|Lost In Space Part 4: Jazz}}

Decades later and immediately following the death of Megatron, Ratchet and his comrades were attacked by [[zombie]] Decepticons. After being briefly smacked aside in the fight, it occurred to Ratchet that the corpses were being animated by All Spark energy stolen from the [[Allspark Mutation|Allspark Mutations]], and this knowledge turned the tide before the Autobots were wiped out. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 7|Starscream's Militia}}

'''Note:''' ''The following events occur in an alternate timeline/continuity where Megatron won the battle of Mission City.''

Ratchet was part of the outnumbered human-Autobot resistance in the conquered [[United States of America]]. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 10|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 2}} Along with [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]], he infiltrated a Decepticon facility to stop them using the [[All Spark]] to transform Earth, and he reluctantly decided to let the All Spark be destroyed if it was the only way to save Earth. Unfortunately, [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]] let them into the facility to kill them! {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 11|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 3}} Ratchet's quick tactical thinking (absorbing nearby ore to reform his offensive weaponry and armour) immediately turned the tide against the Decepticon, but only the arrival of [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee and her crew]] stopped him from being gunned down by Swindles. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 12|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 4}} Despite this, drone numbers were against them, and Ratchet didn't believe they could pull off a victory until he noticed a way to bypass the All Spark's defensive forcefield and destroy the Cube with regular weaponry. Ratchet did this, saving Earth at the cost of the All Spark, though he begged for forgiveness as he destroyed it. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 13|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 5}}

To his relief, a fragment of the All Spark had survived. Optimus, worried about the fragment being corrupted by exposure to Megatron, made Ratchet its guardian. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 14|Aftermath Part 1}} However, in the face of great Decepticon numbers, Ratchet took an unauthorised risk and used the fragment to bring Jazz back to life. The fragment's corruption meant Jazz was brought back amoral and self-serving, and Ratchet was left distraught at what he'd done. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 16|Dark Spark}}

When the Autobots received an SOS from Ironhide's team on Cybertron, the entire team mobilised to head there. Ratchet hurriedly picked up [[Mikaela Banes]] so she could watch their base, ignoring every single traffic law as he did so. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 19|Return to Cybertron: Part 3}} When on Cybertron, Ratchet found himself in battle against [[Unicron]], trying to separate him from the [[Nucleon]] he was using to power his physical body (a possessed Cybertron!). It became clear fast that the Autobot's plan was not going to work fast enough, but Ratchet realised that such a large structure would have an energy distribution network around them; rather than drain the Nucleon manually, he sped things up by having everyone shoot the distribution network until it blew up, causing the energy to be used up in an internal fire. Who needs a [[Matrix]] when you have Ratchet! {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 20|Return to Cybertron: Part 4}}

After the Decepticons re-took Savannah, Ratchet was part of the ground troops sent in to rescue Mikaela. He did bog all there, really. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 22|The Decepticon Who Haunted Himself}}

===IDW ''Transformers'' movie comics===
[[Image:Defiance1 Ratchet Jazz vocalprocessors.jpg|left|250px|thumb|You turbo revvin young punks are always in the way!]]
Many years before the war, First Officer Ratchet was a member of the science sector on Cybertron. He greeted Commander [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] when the latter returned from a patrol in the [[Eshems nebula]] and repaired his wounds. When he reported of promising findings in the archaeological site near the temple of [[Simfur]], Starscream was somewhat dismissive of the science division's efforts in light of their previous failures. Later, at the excavation site, [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]] tweaked Ratchet by asking if the artifacts found were as old as the first officer. Ratchet exaggerated being upset and deployed his various tools, threatening Jazz that he was just as good as disabling [[Vocal processor|vocal processors]] as he was fixing them. When Optimus walked off with Lord High Protector [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]], Ratchet wacked Jazz on the back of the head. He was present when [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee's]] team found a strange artifact with the [[Decepticon|strange symbol]] and helped escort the relic out of the dig site when the aliens whom Starscream had encountered earlier suddenly attacked the planet. {{storylink|Defiance issue 1|Defiance issue 1}}

{{charstubfiction}}
{{storylink|Defiance issue 2}}

During the war, Optimus Prime decided to launch the All Spark into space to keep it out of Lord Megatron's hands. Bumblebee was successful in diverting the Decepticon leader's attention at [[Tyger Pax]], but was greviously injured as a result. As he was carried away on a stretcher, Ratchet declared Bumblebee a hero for delaying Megatron long enough for their plan to work. Ratchet repaired his body, but contrary to what he told Jazz years earlier, was unable to repair Bumblebee's vocal processor. {{storylink|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 1|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 1}}

{{note|The inability to repair Bumblebee's vocal processor (or "voice capacitor", as it is referred to in IDW's [[Movie Prequel (2007)|2007 Movie Prequel]]) is at odds with the movie itself where Ratchet said he was working on it, and eventually, Bumblebee does regain his voice.}}

Hearing [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee's]] call for assistance, Ratchet and the other Autobots under Optimus Prime's direct command came to Earth, with Ratchet crashing into a storefront. As emergency crews and bystanders observed the wreckage, Ratchet assumed the vehicle mode of a nearby Hummer H2 rescue vehicle and drove away.

[[Image:Ratchetmovieautobotsforshort.jpg|left|250px|thumb|"The boy's pheromone levels suggests he wants to mate with the female. Other way around, not so much."]]
Ratchet linked up with [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] and [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]], then made their way to a deserted alley to meet up with Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and their new [[Sam Witwicky|human]] [[Mikaela Banes|friends]]. After being introduced as the unit's medical officer, Ratchet remarked that his sensors indicated that Sam's pheromone levels suggested he wanted to mate with Mikaela. (Neither Sam nor Mikaela appreciated this comment.) He also explained how Bumblebee's [[Circuits|voicebox]] was damaged and that he had been having trouble fixing it for some time.

Following Sam to his house, Ratchet and their other Autobots unwittingly caused much destruction to the Witwicky yard and stress to Sam when they attempted to help the boy look for his [[Archibald Witwicky|grandfather's]] glasses. After Sam told them to hide, Ratchet accidentally walked into some power lines, which shocked him enough to make him fall onto a greenhouse. Ratchet found the experience tingly and suggested to Ironhide that he try it, and Ironhide sarcastically mused that it looked fun, but unfortunately, it had caused a neighborhood-wide blackout, making the search for the glasses much more difficult. Ratchet attempted to help by activating his powerful floodlights, which only succeeded in making [[Ron Witwicky|the]] [[Judy Witwicky|parents]] investigate Sam's room. When Ironhide remarked that Sam's parents were annoying and requested Prime's permission to "take them out", the normally peaceful Ratchet nodded vigorously and pointed Ironhide's left cannon at the house. Maybe that power surge did more damage than suspected.

[[Image:Movie Ratchet Ironhide runSam.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Oh, that hurt!]]
Soon, Sam, Mikaela and his parents were captured by the mysterious [[Sector Seven]]. Ratchet and the other Autobots totally outclassed the S7 agents by instantly disarming them of their weapons, then rescuing the boy and his girl. Their dramatic escape was to be short-lived, and Bumblebee was captured while saving his human friends' lives. The next morning, the remaining Autobots gathered to discuss their options. Whether through intuition or some technological means, Ratchet announced that the Decepticons were preparing to make their move. Optimus Prime declared that if they could not defeat the Decepticons, he would fuse the [[All Spark]] with his own [[spark]], hopefully destroying it. Ratchet cautioned him against this action, as the raw power of the artifact would likely kill him. Prime replied that it was his own choice, and to save the humans from destruction and the mistakes of the Transformers, it was a sacrifice that he was willing to make. Inspired by his words, the Autobots headed to [[Hoover Dam]], before encountering Bumblebee leading a column of Sector Seven vehicles headed in the opposite direction.

As the large group arrived in [[Mission City]], it was attacked by [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], with the explosion crippling Bumblebee. At the same time, [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] attacked the surviving human soldiers, prompting Ratchet and Jazz to engage the large Decepticon. As Jazz destroyed one of Devastator's rocket pods, Ratchet used his buzzsaw to slice off the tank's left arm.

[[Image:Movie Prime Jazz Ironhide Ratchet battleaftermath.jpg|left|300px|thumb|"We lost a great comrade." ...*toss*]]
[[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]] ordered Sam to take the All Spark to the rooftop of a nearby, run-down building so he could pass the cube to a military helicopter that would soon arrive. Ratchet and Ironhide volunteered themselves to protect Sam as he made his escape. Unfortunately, the villainous Starscream swooped down to block Sam's path, forcing the Autobots to engage him in a rather one-sided battle that left them both damaged. Ratchet and Ironhide collapsed, and Sam had to continue on his own.

After the defeat of Megatron and the destruction of the All Spark, Ratchet somberly informed Optimus Prime that he could not save the fallen Jazz. Later, as Optimus declared that Earth was their new home and that his team would be waiting for any surviving Autobots to gather there, Ratchet spent the remainder of the day observing Sam and Mikaela making out on the hood of Bumblebee's vehicle mode. {{storylink|Transformers (2007)|Transformers (2007)}}

===On-package bio===
Ratchet, despite what he said previously, fixed Jazz up just fine. He also learned a little more about Earth and decided to change to what he felt was a more typical "rescue" deco. The new look feels more natural to him.

{{note|This [[Bio|biography]] for the Rescue Ratchet redeco toy is a [[micro-continuity]].}}

===IDW ''Transformers'' movie comics===
[[Image:Alliance1 Ratchet Dew.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Yeah Ratchet, but why can't you tell this to all Americans?]]
After the battle of Mission City, Ratchet was reattaching Bumblebee's legs when [[Dispensor|an All Spark mutation]] attacked Sam. Ratchet crushed the hostile creature with his foot, but was surprised to discover that it contained substances loaded with stimulants and ingredients harmful to humans such as Sam and Mikaela. After repairing Bumblebee and retrieving Jazz's remains, the Autobots rolled out to evade Sector Seven. In the month that followed, Ratchet became fascinated with Earth's varied minerals, such that [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]] joked that the Autobots were late to meet them because Ratchet had stopped to take soil samples again. {{storylink|Alliance issue 1|Alliance issue 1}}

Ratchet arrived at Sector Seven's secret base in the [[Nevada]] desert with the other Autobots to help escort the Decepticon remains to [[San Diego]], [[California]]. He stayed with Prime when the Autobot leader sent Bumblebee and Ironhide back to retrieve the All Spark sliver Prime had left in Sector Seven's care. {{storylink|Alliance issue 2|Alliance issue 2}} The convoy returned to the base anyway after the level of destruction caused by the Decepticons was reported. Ratchet could be seen assisting the damaged Bumblebee. By the time the Autobots were on [[United States Navy|US Navy aircraft carrier]] weeks later for Jazz's burial-at-sea, Ratchet had repaired Bumblebee's outer panels (giving him a new body kit), but was evidently unable to fully restore Bumblebee's [[vocal processor]]s. {{storylink|Alliance issue 3}}

Ratchet does very little. (Noticing a trend here?) He comes in to attack the Decepticon Create-a-bot in the Army base. After a short fight, he escapes. He makes no other appearances, and so is one of the three characters (the other two being Megatron and Brawl) to survive the game.

*'''Autobot Ratchet''' (Legends Class, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Ratchet'''

:An inexpensive, small-scale version of Ratchet, he remains relatively faithful to his vehicle mode (though highly simplified), but transforms very differently due to his simplicity. In robot mode he has a faux truck-front chest that's more faithful to the CGI design than the Voyager toy's chest, but the rest of his robot mode is (understandably) inaccurate and limited in articulation.

:The original production run of the toy sported a significantly wrong shade of green. A running change variant that quickly replaced the original version corrected the error, now sporting the same shade of green as the Voyager Class toy.<ref>[http://www.thetf.net/forum_posts-TID-10086-PN-1.htm Comparison images of both color variants of Legends Ratchet]</ref> Still, the color variant was not limited to the US market, as both versions also popped up in Europe. Japan, however, got stuck with the original, off-color version.

*'''Autobot Ratchet''' (Voyager Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Roof rack/claw

:One of the most inaccurate Voyager-class toys, Voyager ''Movie'' Ratchet transforms into a [[wikipedia:Hummer_H2|AM General Hummer H2]], customised as a fire search and rescue vehicle. Mostly accurate to the prop vehicle (though the wheels and emergency light bar are incorrect), Ratchet is missing some sculpted detailing for the rear doors and lights, as this is where his knee joints are situated. Ratchet is also missing significant amounts of paint applications, with unpainted wheels, emergency tools, and light details, as well as a underpainted face, resulting in a rather monochromatic toy.

:During transformation, unfolding his legs will activate his [[Automorph|Automorphing]] feature, which folds out his kneepads and feet, and 'bulges' out two small panels along his inner calves. In robot mode, Ratchet is bulkier than his CGI movie design, with larger, blockier limbs, evoking a more 'traditional' Transformers appearance. As such, his chest does not compress into the slimmer CGI model. He features a reasonable amount of articulation, though his windshield halves and the rear brush guards may occassionally interfere with his arms and legs.

:The only Autobot to not feature a ranged weapon, Ratchet's right forearm unfolds into an axe (based upon a weapon concept study), and the removable rollbar/roof rack can either be mounted on his left arm as a shield, or stored on his back.

:Oddly, although Ratchet's thumbs are articulated, space is so restricted that they are all but useless. His left thumb can only move a millimeter due to his wrist armour getting in the way. His right thumb does have more space to move, but pushing it will invariably disengage the fold-out axe from his forearm.

:Rescue Ratchet is an extensive [[redeco]] based in part upon ''Generation 1'' [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet's]] [[Marvel]] comics appearance. Aside from the deco and name change, the toy is otherwise the same in functionality to the previous Voyager class release.

:Oddly for a deco described as being ''more'' likely for the type of vehicle, Rescue Ratchet's vehicle mode—a fire search and rescue vehicle—is prominently labeled "AMBULANCE."

**''Accessories:'' Roof rack/claw

:Ratchet was one of the first figures in the ''Premium Series'', released on October 16th, 2007 exclusively at Best Buy for the launch of the ''Transformers'' movie DVD. Ratchet's main plastic has been changed to a metallic yellow, with an additional coat of metallic yellow paint over the top of those parts (and others), resulting in a much more accurate colour scheme in relation to the actual ''Movie'' character and prop vehicle.

:Ratchet was presented in robot mode, within a special display package similar in shape to the packaging for the Hasbro release of ''Generation 1'' ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]]. Even though Hasbro officially considers him as part of the Premium Series, this is not indicated anywhere on the packaging, as the Premium Series wasn't officially announced until ''after'' Ratchet and [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] had already been released to stores.

==Trivia==
*According to [[Meet the Autobots]], Ratchet has X-ray vision, which lets him see for miles.

*In the hardcover ''Movie Guide'', it is noted that Ratchet can cannibalize his own parts for emergency treatment of a patient. (He carries within him redundant systems for such situations.) He can also tow up to 300 lbs over his own weight in vehicle form, and his specialization isn't listed as being a medic, but in actually '''getting''' to the wounded.

*In the hardcover ''Movie Guide'' it is noted that Ratchet is one of the few Autobots that could conceivably give Megatron a decent fight one-on-one before being dismembered and fed upon.

*In the Transformers guide to the movie, the book proclaims that "Ratchet carefully chose his landing site to avoid loss of human life." Yet he is seen crashing in the middle of the street, causing fires and several minor explosions. Maybe Ratchet ''thought'' he was avoiding loss of human life.

*Ratchet's toy packaging proclaims he has an "Automorph Forearm Cannon". However, the toy obviously lacks this weapon. At the Hasbro Tour during Botcon 2007, an early resin [[prototype]] of Ratchet was displayed during a slide show, with similar callouts. Presumably, the forearm cannon was attempted, but dropped due to either engineering issues or cost.

*Ratchet's toys are part of a matrix of cross-referencing [[Redeco|redecos]], along with [[Ratchet (Animated)|''Animated'' Ratchet]] and [[Ratchet (G1)|Generation 1 Ratchet]]:
**In 2008, the original Generation 1 Ratchet mold got a green redeco as "Ratchet Emergency Green" in obvious reference to his movie counterpart.
**The red and white "Rescue Ratchet" redecos of movie Ratchet's toys are based on [[Ratchet (G1)|Generation 1 Ratchet]]'s original toy.
**''Animated'' Ratchet, his original design already referencing both predecessors with Generation 1 Ratchet's chevron and coloring and movie Ratchet's squiggly EEG symbol, had a further homage to the latter with a yellow redeco as (another) "Rescue Ratchet".

*In the film, a part of Ratchet's transformation involves his entire upper body rotating around. The toy does not do this, but [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]]'s does.

*According to [[:Image:Movie scale chart.jpg|this chart]], Ratchet was originally going to be a red and white GMC ambulance. This was probably changed as to allow Optimus Prime to be the predominantly red robot.

*Robert Foxworth, as Ratchet, is credited in the film just after [[Mason the Mastiff|Mason]]. Harsh. Especially as Ratchet had the film's best line.

*Contrary to what is implied or outright stated by everything from the Rescue Ratchet deco to the words of the moviemakers themselves, Ratchet is ''not,'' in fact, an ambulance.

First Lieutenant '''Jazz''' is one happy-go-lucky Autobot. Good-natured and always able to take things in stride, he provides a decent contrast to the more serious demeanor of [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] or [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Prime]] himself. He's also a talker, something Ironhide and Prime like to tease him about. He might be the smallest Autobot but he's by no means a coward. His only real complaint is that he always gets stuck fighting [[Frenzy (Movie)|the small ones]].

===IDW ''Transformers'' movie comics===
[[Image:Defiance1 Ratchet Jazz vocalprocessors.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Kup and Ratchet like blaming turbo revvin young punks.]]
Many years before the civil war on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Jazz was a member of the science division. As Optimus pondered the venerable age of the artifacts they had found at an excavation near the temple of [[Simfur]], Jazz jokingly asked if they were as old as [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]], earning him a threat of [[vocal processor]]-disabling retribution and a wack on the back of the head. He was present when [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee's]] team found a strange artifact with the [[Decepticon|strange symbol]] and helped escort the relic out of the dig site when the aliens whom Commander [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] had encountered earlier suddenly attacked the planet. {{storylink|Defiance issue 1}}

In the aftermath, Jazz accompanied [[Prowl (Movie)|Prowl]] as the latter investigated the attack on the Simfur temple. Prowl theorised that the aliens were trying to break into the temple, not destroy it, Jazz opinied that they must have been after the [[All Spark]]. When Megatron rallied Cybertron's inhabitants to war against the alien attackers, Jazz and most of the others in the science and security division loyally stayed at Optimus Prime's side to uphold the ideals of Cybertron. Later, when Prime mentioned Megatron's questionable behavior and wished there was unity in the population, Jazz pointed out that he had the same chance of convincing Megatron to be unified as they do of being considered part of his army. Realising sentries such as Prowl and Jazz had access to Megatron's personal quarters, Prime asked them for a favour. {{storylink|Defiance issue 2}}

{{charstubfiction}}
{{storylink|Defiance issue 3}}

During the war, Optimus Prime decided to launch the All Spark into space to keep it out of Lord Megatron's hands. [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] was successful in diverting the Decepticon leader's attention at [[Tyger Pax]], but was grievously injured as a result. Jazz was part of the team that discovered him after the Decepticons had left. {{storylink|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 1}}

As the Autobots prepared to leave Cybertron to go after Megatron and the All Spark, Optimus Prime expressed concern on if the remaining civilians and Autobots on Cybertron could hold out while they were gone. Jazz informed him that their troops were laying low, but if the Decepticons tried any mischief, they would be in for a nasty surprise. {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream issue 1}}

Onboard the ''Ark'', Jazz was the first to detect the ''[[Ghost 1|Ghost 1's]]'' presence, and was later badly damaged in a fight with the Decepticons. After being repaired, he and [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] fought together against [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]. {{storylink|Ghosts of Yesterday}}

===Titan Magazines ''Transformers'' movie comics===
Jazz likes "to keep his bodywork ''buff''" by externalizing his [[Spark]] Core forcefield - in the past, that led to him almost being killed when [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]] almost tore out his unprotected Spark. He only survived thanks to fellow Autobot [[Clocker (Movie)|Clocker]], who was killed covering his retreat. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 6|Lost In Space 4: Jazz}}

When the [[All Spark]] was launched, Jazz, [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] and [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] attempted to distract Megatron from pursuing it. They ended up attacked by [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] and warped across space by a fold-space weapon. {{storylink|Prelude: Megatron|Prelude: Megatron}}

[[Image:JazzTitan06.JPG|left|250px|thumb|"I HAVE SEEN THE LORD!"]]

Jazz ended up on a planet that he dubbed "the Information Highway" - a constantly-morphing world with "the accumulated knowledge of countless alien cultures, condensed into some kind of sensory precipitation". He loved this world and the constant new experiences so much that he deliberately ignored Ratchet's homing beacon, wanting to stay here forever. However, the planet was alive and predatory, and ended up absorbing him into it - he fired off a warning buoy to stop others arriving, and only this led to Ratchet & Ironhide finding where he was and rescuing him. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 6|Lost In Space 4: Jazz}}

He doesn't like the war and, as the Information Highway incident shows, has no qualms about deserting if given the opportunity.

{{note|The following events occur in an alternate timeline/continuity where Megatron won the battle of Mission City.}}
Because of a lack of troops on [[Earth]], Ratchet used a corrupted fragment of the All Spark to bring Jazz back to life.<ref name="allsparkjazzbio"> '''All Spark-Enhanced Autobot Jazz''' bio</ref> Happy to be back, Jazz blew off the suggestion that death had made any impact beyond him wanting to live every day as if it was his last, and he was dispatched with Ratchet to secure a raw energon field.

[[Image:JazzTitan21.JPG|right|250px|thumb|"And my sound effects are inane!"]]

Unfortunately, it turned out the corrupted fragment had indeed led to Jazz himself being corrupted; he paralyzed Ratchet and attempted to exploit Earth's apocalypse by selling the newly energon rich planet to the highest bidder. His auction was interrupted by [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwing]], who rejected an offer to join forces, and attacked. Ratchet revived and managed to destroy the energon field the auction was being held in; Jazz escaped in the resulting confusion. {{storylink|Dark Spark|Dark Spark}}

He later kept back as a happy hired gun for [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], out to murder Optimus Prime. He was prevented from this when the ''second'' hired gun, [[Kullt]], turned up; he realised Starscream didn't trust him to be able kill an old comrade and was so insulted he gunned down the other mercenary. He was left rattled when Optimus pointed out he could have let Kullt do the work for him and ''then'' gun him down, which suggested there was still some goodness in him. He drove off in the face of reinforcements, vowing to prove Optimus wrong next time. {{storylink|Hard Target|Hard Target}}

===''Transformers'' (2007) film===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Darius McCrary]] (English), [[Taiten Kusunoki]] (Japanese), [[Torsten Michaelis]] (German)

[[Image:Movie2007 Jazz dealership.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Why buy? When you can be!]]
Jazz was part of Optimus Prime's unit, summoned to Earth by [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] after the latter Autobot came to be in the possession of [[Sam Witwicky]]. After his [[protoform]] crashed through a baseball stadium, he investigated a nearby car dealership and chose a Pontiac Solstice hardtop as his vehicle mode.

[[Image:Jazz movie ally.JPG|right|250px|thumb|Sadly, the other car's owner only had liability.]]

Linking up with his fellow Autobots in a deserted alley, Jazz greeted Sam and [[Mikaela Banes]] as "little bitches," stating that Earth seems to be a cool place to hang out. He casually sat on the hood of another car while Optimus Prime explained to Sam they learnt Earth's languages through the internet. He then relayed their mission to find the [[All Spark]] and explained how his [[Archibald Witwicky|grandfather's]] glasses were the key to its location.

Soon after, as Sam looked for his grandfather's glasses, the Autobots attempted to assist by clumsily destroying the yard where they went. When it came to hide from [[Ronald Witwicky|the]] [[Judy Witwicky|parents]], Jazz had the easiest time blending into the shadows due to his small stature.

When Sam and Mikaela were captured by [[Sector Seven]], the Autobots mounted a rescue that saw Optimus Prime tearing the roof off [[Reggie Simmons|Agent Simmons']] vehicle. When the agents attempted to resist, Jazz used a magnet to relieve the humans of their weapons. After Bumblebee was captured by Sector Seven during the retreat, Jazz expressed his desire to rescue him, but was overruled by Optimus Prime, who didn't believe it possible to accomplish this without harming the humans, and so they should let them go.

The next day, after Optimus used his navigation scanner on Archibald Witwicky's glasses, Jazz again commented that they could not leave Bumblebee to die at the hands of Sector Seven, to become a human experiment. Optimus replied that Bumblebee would die in vain if they did not find the All Spark, and when Ironhide asked if the primitive and cruel humans deserved to be saved, Optimus countered by asking if Transformers were so different in the past. Going on to explain what he saw in the humans, Prime declared that if it came to it, he would sacrifice himself to destroy the All Spark - the humans should not pay for Cybertron's mistakes. Inspired by his words, Jazz and the other Autobots rolled out, filled with determination.

[[Image:Movie Jazz on Brawl.JPG|left|250px|thumb|"Come on, Decepticon punk!" "MY MISSILE LAUNCHER! That's like a reproductive organ to me!"]]

On the way to [[Hoover Dam]], the Autobots encountered Bumblebee leading a column of Sector Seven assault vehicles. Jazz and his fellow Autobots applied brakes and did a hard u-turn to join the formation.

Entering [[Mission City]], the [[William Lennox|human]] [[Robert Epps|soldiers]] tried to call for air support from their own forces, only to be attacked by [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] disguised as a human F-22 fighter. Jazz, oddly, sat in vehicle mode after the explosion which crippled Bumblebee, destroying his legs. When [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] began shelling the battle site, Jazz led the Autobot charge toward the Decepticon, speeding to the tank in vehicle mode, then transformed and hopped on top of the turret to distract the Decepticon from the humans. As Devastator also transformed, Jazz managed to wreck his left-side rocket launcher pod before being tossed off. He then sped back to the battle, firing at Devastator, while [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] sliced of Devastator's left arm.

[[Image:Movie2007 Jazz fighting Megatron.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Wait, why did I tell everyone to retreat again?"]]

Jazz tried to delay [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] when he appeared on the scene in order to cover the escape Captain Lennox's men and civilians. Despite Lennox's cries for him to fall back, Jazz bravely faced Megatron alone, but all he got for his trouble was being blasted by the Decepticon's fusion cannon. As Ironhide and Ratchet escorted Sam and the All Spark to safety, Megatron preyed upon the small Autobot who had the audacity to attack him. The Decepticon leader tossed him through the air, then landed upon him with the crushing grip of his talons. Valiantly, Jazz fought on to the bitter end as Megatron tore him in two, throwing his pieces to the ground before attacking Optimus Prime.

[[Image:Movie Prime Jazz Ironhide Ratchet battleaftermath.jpg|left|250px|thumb|"We lost a great comrade today. We'll miss you, Blues." "His name was ''Jazz'', Prime." "Whatever."]]

After being separated from Sam Witwicky, Ratchet hurried to Jazz, but his [[spark]] had already faded. In the aftermath of Megatron's defeat, Ironhide somberly handed Optimus Prime Jazz's remains as Ratchet reported that he could not save their comrade. The Autobot leader somewhat half-heartedly eulogized him, and quickly moved on. {{storylink|Transformers (2007)|Transformers (2007)}}

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Jazz was left badly damaged as a result of those confrontations.

{{note|Jazz's fate in the film is about as unambiguous a depiction of a [[Death|Transformer death]] as one could hope for.

Later, in the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' prequel comic, Optimus Prime asked to have Jazz's remains buried. Despite all this, bio information on his Tartet-exclusive [[redeco]] clearly said that he was rebuilt by Ratchet. Make of this what you will. His Allspark power bio says he came back by the power of the AllSpark. This actually happened in an [[Dark Spark|alternate timeline]].}}

Shortly after the battle in Mission City, Captain Lennox, Sergeant Epps and the other soldiers helped Ironhide find suitable transportation for Jazz's remains. As Ironhide sombrely placed Jazz's body into the trailer, the soldiers lowered their heads in honour of the Autobot who sacrificed his life to save theirs. {{storylink|Alliance issue 1|Alliance issue 1}}

Later in the Nevada Desert, Optimus Prime and the other Autobots arrived with Jazz's remains. The Autobots escorted the Decepticons' carcasses while the U.S Navy planned on giving a proper burial ceremony for Jazz. {{storylink|Alliance issue 2|Alliance issue 2}} Weeks later, the Autobots and their soldier friends are on a US Navy aircraft carrier for Jazz's burial at sea. A crane hoisted the trailer containing Jazz's body and dropped it into the ocean. Optimus Prime thanked Lennox for his participation in Jazz's burial. {{storylink|Alliance issue 3|Alliance issue 3}}

====Autobot campaign====
[[Image:VGE4M3Jazzkabob.jpg|right|180px|thumb|"Ironhide, check this out." "Cool, a piñata!" "...Hate...both of...you..."]]
Jazz arrived on Earth as part of Optimus Prime's unit, summoned to the [[human]] planet by Bumblebee. After taking on the form of a Pontiac Solstice, he met up with the other Autobots. His first mission was to distract Sector Seven and law enforcement units, which he did, buying his fellow Autobots time to escape. Jazz was then surrounded by Sector Seven SUVs and Decepticon drones numerous times, requiring Ironhide's help to escape.

He would then make his way to [[Mission City]], where he engaged [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] and two [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwing]] drones. Jazz defeated all four of them, but as he celebrated his great victory, [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] appeared behind him and punctured Jazz's chest with his claw, extinguishing his [[spark]]. [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] arrived just in time to witness the killing, swore he'd make Brawl's death slow, and fought through a horde of Decepticon units to destroy him. {{storylink|Transformers The Game (console)|Transformers The Game (console)}}

====Decepticon campaign====
Jazz arrived in Mission City with Sam and Mikaela (taking the role of the destroyed Bumblebee), where he was confronted by [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]. After a brief chase through the city, Jazz engaged Barricade in battle, where he was defeated with ease. {{storylink|Transformers The Game (console)|Transformers The Game (console)}}

===''Transformers: Autobots''===
Jazz's first appearance is with the other Autobots, meeting in an old junk yard. Setting out into the city, he retrieved a number of [[Sector Seven]] vehicles before running into [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]]; after a tedious battle, Blackout ran. Returning to the group, Jazz reported his findings, and was promptly forgotten about until he's unlocked as a playable character. {{storylink|Transformers Autobots/Decepticons|Transformers: Autobots}}

===''Transformers: Decepticons''===
At the [[Hoover Dam]], Jazz set up several automated turrets and Autobot drones around the lower perimeter of the Dam, preventing [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] from escaping. However, this line of defense only works for so long, as the turrets could only fire at air-borne objects. Finally getting up the side of the Dam, Jazz stepped in Megatron's path, doing little more than trash talking before Megatron jumped into battle. After a roughly equal fight, Jazz finally fell. Megatron then finished him off and desecrated the Autobot's corpse. {{storylink|Transformers Autobots/Decepticons|Transformers: Autobots}}

*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Legends Class, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Jazz'''

:A much smaller version of the character, [[Legends of Cybertron|Legends-class]] Jazz features limited articulation and detail, along with a much simpler transformation. A rather glaring side-effect of this simplicity, in a desire to mimic the hood chest of the larger toy, is the addition of a second front bumper on the roof of his alt-mode. Whether this means Jazz also includes a second engine to go with this front bumper or an attempt at compensation for a case of [[Barricade (Movie)|police car envy]] is unknown. Ironically, the smallest version of Jazz is the biggest Legends toy in the movie line. Even bigger than Optimus. This may make up for the Arcee toy being taller than his Deluxe figure.

====Deluxe Class toys====
[[Image:Jazzmovietoydeluxe.jpg|right|300px|thumb|"Just wait. They'll do me in G1 colors soon..."]]
*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-04'''
**''Accessories'' Telescoping "sword" (rifle)

:Jazz transforms into a silver [[wikipedia:Pontiac_Solstice|Pontiac Solstice}} Custom Hardtop. Included is a blaster weapon that elongates into a sniper rifle, which may also be clipped directly onto his rear spoiler when in vehicle mode. In robot mode, the section featuring this same rear spoiler may be kept folded onto his back or worn on either shoulder as a shield. An interesting undocumented feature is a hinge joint located on the bottom of the rifle can attach to the ''shield's'' hinge joint, creating three choice weapon configurations: ''(a)'' a mounted long range sniper rifle, ''(b)'' an ambidextrous shoulder-mounted cannon, or ''(c)'' a short range blaster with built-in shield somewhat akin to what has been seen in Jazz's concept art and in the movie itself.

:As with most of the mainline toys, he features a [[Automorph|Automorphing]] gimmick that is activated by pushing the car roof down onto his back and locking it into place. This raises his head and slides his chest panels into proper position for the robot mode. This feature, like the weaponry mentioned above, is not documented at all, so one must be careful to not press the chest ''and'' the back at the same time.

*'''Deluxe three-pack''' (Costco exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

:This Costco exclusive three-pack contains an unchanged Deluxe Class Autobot Jazz together with equally unchanged Deluxe Class [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]] and [[Brawl (Movie)|Decepticon Brawl]] toys. It also comes with a nifty poster depicting all three toys in a standoff scene.

[[Image:Movie G1Jazz toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|"See? Nineteen-Eighty-Four!"]]
*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Target Exclusive Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories'' Telescoping "sword" (rifle)

:An extensive [[redeco]] of Deluxe class Jazz, this Target-[[exclusive]] is heavily based on ''[[Generation 1]]'' [[Jazz (G1)|Jazz's]] Martini Racing scheme. He's lacking in Martini sponsorship for all the obvious reasons, replacing them with his own name. Disco Jazz doesn't really need to advertise, but he does.

:This figure also features a minor retool of the joint in the forearm. On the initial, mass retail release of Deluxe Jazz, the black hinge-joint was able to slide over slightly as part of the original design. The new version features a shorter joint, which makes it a lot less floppy in robot mode. [[Cyberfly|Cyberflies]] sold separately.

*'''Final Battle Jazz''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-14'''
**''Accessories:'' "Crescent Cannon", energy-blast missile

:An extensive retool of Jazz, modifying his head and most of his legs to give them a broken, battle-scarred appearance. Amusingly, because Hasbro chose to keep his vehicle mode pristine, the rest of his body is undamaged. All the damaged parts have a black and blue deco, representing glowing circuitry and exposed conduits.

:Jazz comes with a brand new spring-loaded weapon (called a ''Crescent Cannon'' on the packaging), partially modeled after the actual weapon Jazz appears with in the film. It can fire a transparent blue projectile and, not unlike his original featured weapon, can be mounted in different configurations: ''(a)'' Mounted on his ''right'' arm with the Crescent Cannon missile launcher (with the crescent up) facing forward a la the film, or ''(b)'' mounted on his ''left'' arm with the flip-out rifle barrel pointed forwards (with the crescent down). The cannon can actually be rotated on the connecting peg, allowing the gun to be mounted in either configuration on either arm.

:Unusual for a regular Deluxe class figure, this version of Jazz is packaged on his card in robot mode, no doubt to highlight the changes to the figure that would not be visible in the vehicle mode.

:In addition to the retooled forearm joint also found on the Target exclusive "G1 color" Jazz, a running change variant of Final Battle Jazz adds another peg to the Crescent Cannon, thus allowing Jazz to use the weapon in all the different configurations on either arm.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=40291 Original Allspark thread about the running change mold variant for Final Battle Jazz's Crescent Cannon]</ref>

:In spite of the claim that this is a "final battle" version of Jazz, his torso does not separate easily from his legs.

*'''All Spark-Enhanced Autobot Jazz''' (Target Exclusive Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories'' Telescoping "sword" (rifle)

:This Target exclusive features the Deluxe Class Jazz in unique cylindrical packaging, with the only difference from his standard release being that key robot mode parts are highlighted by the slavish 'All Spark Blue' color for no other reason than [[to sell toys]].

*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Deluxe Class "Premium Series", 2008)
**''Accessories'' Telescoping "sword" (rifle)

:This more movie-accurate version of Jazz sports a shinier coat of silver paint, along with added paint application detail to his robot mode parts. As it is a straight redeco, despite his coloration being far closer to the movie model, his weapon is still the old preliminary-art "sword" rather than the <a href="#FinalBattle" title="">"Final Battle" version's</a> much more screen-accurate shield/cannon.

*'''Battle Over Mission City (Two-Pack)''' ("Screen Battles" Deluxe, 2008)
**''Accessories'' Telescoping "sword" (rifle)

:A Target exclusive two-pack that pits an unchanged Deluxe Class Final Battle Jazz with a beige, brown, and on-fire orange version of Voyager Class [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] in reference to their battle on the top of a skyscraper in the film that was, in fact, Jazz's final battle.

====Fast Action Battlers====
[[Image:Movie FAB Jazz.jpg|right|300px|thumb|The kids love me.]]
*'''Ion Blast Autobot Jazz''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
**''Accessories'': Energy-blast missile

:Though larger than the standard <a href="#Deluxe_Class_toys" title="">Deluxe class Jazz</a>, [[Fast Action Battlers]] "Ion Blast" Jazz is a simplified toy for the younger set with comparatively few parts and detailing. In vehicle mode he's kind of a squat and cutified Pontiac Solstice. His articulation is limited to his shoulders, hips and knees, and has a spring-loaded missile launcher in place of his left hand.

:This toy was later redecoed into [[Smokescreen (Movie)|Sonic Shock Smokescreen]].

{{-}}

====Cyber Slammers====
[[Image:Movie Jazz CyberSlammer.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Silver scratches too easy, ask Jazz.]]
*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Cyber Slammers, 2007)

:[[Cyber Slammers]] Jazz is an amazingly cute Pontiac Solstic that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot hipster. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along, slowly transforming back up into robot mode. Like most Cyber Slammers, Jazz manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

====Robot Replicas====

*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Robot Replica, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' "Crescent cannon" rifle/shield, alternate left & right forearms

:As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] line, this version of Jazz is a non-transforming action figure that utilizes [[Revoltech]]-style jointing. The sculpt hews much closer to the movie CGI model than is possible with the full transforming toys, plus the universal jointing of the line allows for his forearm to be replaced with the included Crescent Cannon (which is also called that on the toy's packaging), or parts from other Robot Replica figures. Jazz's shoulders are actually mounted on the wrong sides of the toy as compared to the [[Transformers (2007)|Movie's]] CG design, but can easily swapped due to the toy's body construction.

====Titanium Series====
[[Image:Movie TitaniumRM Jazz.jpg|right|200px|thumb|"Are you looking at me?"]]
*'''Autobot Jazz''' (3" Robot Masters, 2007)
*''Accessories'' Movie-style Autobot sigil display stand

:''[[Titanium Series]]'' Jazz is a die-cast metal and plastic figurine, with an accurate sculpt based on the slender CG model owing to the fact he doesn't need to transform. Being a figurine, he only has articulation in his shoulders, neck and waist. Jazz is sculpted with a small handgun that was only featured in concept art early in film development that still showed Arcee as part of the main cast. Jazz comes with a Movie-style Autobot symbol display stand, as is expected.

*'''Autobot Ratchet and Autobot Jazz''' (2008)

:The Ratchet and Jazz turnaround is a 3D sculpture of the two characters, both in robot mode, emerging from rubble and explosions, with a movie-accurate sculpt (compared to the various transforming toys). The "turnaround" aspect of these sculptures simply means one can turn the piece around to display a raised-relief of the movie-style Autobot sigil instead.

:This product's release was canceled for the US market, but was released in Australia and in Asia.

{{-}}

==Trivia==
[[Image:Movie Jazz armswordconcept.jpg|right|180px|thumb|Cool melee weapon in the game, totally non-existent in the movie.]]
* The packaging text for the Deluxe Jazz figure refers to his weapon as a "telescoping sword". As ridiculous as this sounds considering this weapon ''looks'' like a firearm and can attach to his spoiler in vehicle mode as such, this very idea actually comes from concept drawings of a sword weapon featured on the same concept art that also had Jazz showcasing the short range blaster/shield thingy both featured in the film and included with his Final Battle retool. So, ''really''... not that ridiculous anymore.

* According to a press kit sent out in conjunction with the movie, Jazz has a "near-perfect recordable memory that makes him invaluable as a documenter of battles" and is "equipped with a fusion engine that allows him to reach sub-light speeds in vehicle mode." [http://numberonestars.com/transformers/production/autobots.htm] One, uh, would ''hope'' a Pontiac Solstice would be travelling at ''sub''-light speeds...

* During the final battle in [[Mission City]], there's a long period where Jazz is not doing ''anything''. He's standing around in vehicle mode when Ironhide notices that the F-22 flying above the city is Starscream, stays in vehicle mode when Ironhide and Bumblebee pick up a Furby delivery truck for cover, ''still'' remains in vehicle mode when Starscream blasts them, and after Sam discovers that Bumblebee has lost his legs, all Jazz does is pull back for a few feet to give Bumblebee space to crawl. In the end, Jazz doesn't really join the battle ''at all'' until Brawl shows up.

* In an earlier draft of the movie script, [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] was supposed to "consume" the Sparks of Autobots he killed. A remainder of this can be found in the novelization and the IDW comic adaptation of the movie, which both explicitly state that Megatron tears out Jazz's Spark. In the movie itself, however, Megatron simply appears to kill Jazz by ripping him apart at the waist, even though [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] was previously able to survive as a detached head. However, a recent rejiggering of Frenzy's biology makes this a moot point.

* Though it is very brief, Jazz does indeed get a face close-up during the Mission City battle when he is shot by Megatron and falls over in pain, before he is ripped in half.

* In an appeal to his better nature in [[Transformers (Titan Magazine)|Titan]], Optimus said part of him was "still Autobot Jazz": a reference to the name of the Jazz toys.

:''Jazz is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|2007 movie franchise]] in the [[Live-action film series|live-action film]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:MovieJazz promorender.jpg|right|350px|thumb|"Slide with me. Just bounce with me. Now freeze!"]]
First Lieutenant '''Jazz''' is one happy-go-lucky Autobot. Good-natured and always able to take things in stride, he provides a decent contrast to the more serious demeanor of [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] or [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Prime]] himself. He's also a talker, something Ironhide and Prime like to tease him about. He might be the smallest Autobot but he's by no means a coward. His only real complaint is that he always gets stuck fighting [[Frenzy (Movie)|the small ones]].

==Fiction==
===IDW ''Transformers'' movie comics===
[[Image:Defiance1 Ratchet Jazz vocalprocessors.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Kup and Ratchet like blaming turbo revvin young punks.]]
Many years before the civil war on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Jazz was a member of the science division. As Optimus pondered the venerable age of the artifacts they had found at an excavation near the temple of [[Simfur]], Jazz jokingly asked if they were as old as [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]], earning him a threat of [[vocal processor]]-disabling retribution and a wack on the back of the head. He was present when [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee's]] team found a strange artifact with the [[Decepticon|strange symbol]] and helped escort the relic out of the dig site when the aliens whom Commander [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] had encountered earlier suddenly attacked the planet. {{storylink|Defiance issue 1}}

In the aftermath, Jazz accompanied [[Prowl (Movie)|Prowl]] as the latter investigated the attack on the Simfur temple. Prowl theorised that the aliens were trying to break into the temple, not destroy it, Jazz opinied that they must have been after the [[All Spark]]. When Megatron rallied Cybertron's inhabitants to war against the alien attackers, Jazz and most of the others in the science and security division loyally stayed at Optimus Prime's side to uphold the ideals of Cybertron. Later, when Prime mentioned Megatron's questionable behavior and wished there was unity in the population, Jazz pointed out that he had the same chance of convincing Megatron to be unified as they do of being considered part of his army. Realising sentries such as Prowl and Jazz had access to Megatron's personal quarters, Prime asked them for a favour. {{storylink|Defiance issue 2}}

{{charstubfiction}}
{{storylink|Defiance issue 3}}

During the war, Optimus Prime decided to launch the All Spark into space to keep it out of Lord Megatron's hands. [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] was successful in diverting the Decepticon leader's attention at [[Tyger Pax]], but was grievously injured as a result. Jazz was part of the team that discovered him after the Decepticons had left. {{storylink|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 1}}

As the Autobots prepared to leave Cybertron to go after Megatron and the All Spark, Optimus Prime expressed concern on if the remaining civilians and Autobots on Cybertron could hold out while they were gone. Jazz informed him that their troops were laying low, but if the Decepticons tried any mischief, they would be in for a nasty surprise. {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream issue 1}}
{{-}}

===''Ghosts Of Yesterday'' prequel novel===
Onboard the ''Ark'', Jazz was the first to detect the ''[[Ghost 1|Ghost 1's]]'' presence, and was later badly damaged in a fight with the Decepticons. After being repaired, he and [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] fought together against [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]. {{storylink|Ghosts of Yesterday}}

{{charstubfiction}}

===Titan Magazines ''Transformers'' movie comics===
Jazz likes "to keep his bodywork ''buff''" by externalizing his [[Spark]] Core forcefield - in the past, that led to him almost being killed when [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]] almost tore out his unprotected Spark. He only survived thanks to fellow Autobot [[Clocker (Movie)|Clocker]], who was killed covering his retreat. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 6|Lost In Space 4: Jazz}}

When the [[All Spark]] was launched, Jazz, [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] and [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] attempted to distract Megatron from pursuing it. They ended up attacked by [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] and warped across space by a fold-space weapon. {{storylink|Prelude: Megatron|Prelude: Megatron}}

[[Image:JazzTitan06.JPG|left|250px|thumb|"I HAVE SEEN THE LORD!"]]

Jazz ended up on a planet that he dubbed "the Information Highway" - a constantly-morphing world with "the accumulated knowledge of countless alien cultures, condensed into some kind of sensory precipitation". He loved this world and the constant new experiences so much that he deliberately ignored Ratchet's homing beacon, wanting to stay here forever. However, the planet was alive and predatory, and ended up absorbing him into it - he fired off a warning buoy to stop others arriving, and only this led to Ratchet & Ironhide finding where he was and rescuing him. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 6|Lost In Space 4: Jazz}}

He doesn't like the war and, as the Information Highway incident shows, has no qualms about deserting if given the opportunity.

Because of a lack of troops on [[Earth]], Ratchet used a corrupted fragment of the All Spark to bring Jazz back to life.<ref name="allsparkjazzbio"> '''All Spark-Enhanced Autobot Jazz''' bio</ref> Happy to be back, Jazz blew off the suggestion that death had made any impact beyond him wanting to live every day as if it was his last, and he was dispatched with Ratchet to secure a raw energon field.

[[Image:JazzTitan21.JPG|right|250px|thumb|"And my sound effects are inane!"]]

Unfortunately, it turned out the corrupted fragment had indeed led to Jazz himself being corrupted; he paralyzed Ratchet and attempted to exploit Earth's apocalypse by selling the newly energon rich planet to the highest bidder. His auction was interrupted by [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwing]], who rejected an offer to join forces, and attacked. Ratchet revived and managed to destroy the energon field the auction was being held in; Jazz escaped in the resulting confusion. {{storylink|Dark Spark|Dark Spark}}

He later kept back as a happy hired gun for [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], out to murder Optimus Prime. He was prevented from this when the ''second'' hired gun, [[Kullt]], turned up; he realised Starscream didn't trust him to be able kill an old comrade and was so insulted he gunned down the other mercenary. He was left rattled when Optimus pointed out he could have let Kullt do the work for him and ''then'' gun him down, which suggested there was still some goodness in him. He drove off in the face of reinforcements, vowing to prove Optimus wrong next time. {{storylink|Hard Target|Hard Target}}

===''Transformers'' (2007) film===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Darius McCrary]] (English), [[Taiten Kusunoki]] (Japanese), [[Torsten Michaelis]] (German)

[[Image:Movie2007 Jazz dealership.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Why buy? When you can be!]]
Jazz was part of Optimus Prime's unit, summoned to Earth by [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] after the latter Autobot came to be in the possession of [[Sam Witwicky]]. After his [[protoform]] crashed through a baseball stadium, he investigated a nearby car dealership and chose a Pontiac Solstice hardtop as his vehicle mode.

[[Image:Jazz movie ally.JPG|right|250px|thumb|Sadly, the other car's owner only had liability.]]

Linking up with his fellow Autobots in a deserted alley, Jazz greeted Sam and [[Mikaela Banes]] as "little bitches," stating that Earth seems to be a cool place to hang out. He casually sat on the hood of another car while Optimus Prime explained to Sam they learnt Earth's languages through the internet. He then relayed their mission to find the [[All Spark]] and explained how his [[Archibald Witwicky|grandfather's]] glasses were the key to its location.

Soon after, as Sam looked for his grandfather's glasses, the Autobots attempted to assist by clumsily destroying the yard where they went. When it came to hide from [[Ronald Witwicky|the]] [[Judy Witwicky|parents]], Jazz had the easiest time blending into the shadows due to his small stature.

When Sam and Mikaela were captured by [[Sector Seven]], the Autobots mounted a rescue that saw Optimus Prime tearing the roof off [[Reggie Simmons|Agent Simmons']] vehicle. When the agents attempted to resist, Jazz used a magnet to relieve the humans of their weapons. After Bumblebee was captured by Sector Seven during the retreat, Jazz expressed his desire to rescue him, but was overruled by Optimus Prime, who didn't believe it possible to accomplish this without harming the humans, and so they should let them go.

The next day, after Optimus used his navigation scanner on Archibald Witwicky's glasses, Jazz again commented that they could not leave Bumblebee to die at the hands of Sector Seven, to become a human experiment. Optimus replied that Bumblebee would die in vain if they did not find the All Spark, and when Ironhide asked if the primitive and cruel humans deserved to be saved, Optimus countered by asking if Transformers were so different in the past. Going on to explain what he saw in the humans, Prime declared that if it came to it, he would sacrifice himself to destroy the All Spark - the humans should not pay for Cybertron's mistakes. Inspired by his words, Jazz and the other Autobots rolled out, filled with determination.

[[Image:Movie Jazz on Brawl.JPG|left|250px|thumb|"Come on, Decepticon punk!" "MY MISSILE LAUNCHER! That's like a reproductive organ to me!"]]

On the way to [[Hoover Dam]], the Autobots encountered Bumblebee leading a column of Sector Seven assault vehicles. Jazz and his fellow Autobots applied brakes and did a hard u-turn to join the formation.

Entering [[Mission City]], the [[William Lennox|human]] [[Robert Epps|soldiers]] tried to call for air support from their own forces, only to be attacked by [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] disguised as a human F-22 fighter. Jazz, oddly, sat in vehicle mode after the explosion which crippled Bumblebee, destroying his legs. When [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] began shelling the battle site, Jazz led the Autobot charge toward the Decepticon, speeding to the tank in vehicle mode, then transformed and hopped on top of the turret to distract the Decepticon from the humans. As Devastator also transformed, Jazz managed to wreck his left-side rocket launcher pod before being tossed off. He then sped back to the battle, firing at Devastator, while [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] sliced of Devastator's left arm.

[[Image:Movie2007 Jazz fighting Megatron.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Wait, why did I tell everyone to retreat again?"]]

Jazz tried to delay [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] when he appeared on the scene in order to cover the escape Captain Lennox's men and civilians. Despite Lennox's cries for him to fall back, Jazz bravely faced Megatron alone, but all he got for his trouble was being blasted by the Decepticon's fusion cannon. As Ironhide and Ratchet escorted Sam and the All Spark to safety, Megatron preyed upon the small Autobot who had the audacity to attack him. The Decepticon leader tossed him through the air, then landed upon him with the crushing grip of his talons. Valiantly, Jazz fought on to the bitter end as Megatron tore him in two, throwing his pieces to the ground before attacking Optimus Prime.

[[Image:Movie Prime Jazz Ironhide Ratchet battleaftermath.jpg|left|250px|thumb|"We lost a great comrade today. We'll miss you, Blues." "His name was ''Jazz'', Prime." "Whatever."]]

After being separated from Sam Witwicky, Ratchet hurried to Jazz, but his [[spark]] had already faded. In the aftermath of Megatron's defeat, Ironhide somberly handed Optimus Prime Jazz's remains as Ratchet reported that he could not save their comrade. The Autobot leader somewhat half-heartedly eulogized him, and quickly moved on. {{storylink|Transformers (2007)|Transformers (2007)}}

===Toy packaging bios===
Before coming to Earth, Jazz was involved in a deep-space battle over a barren world. He was badly damaged in the conflict and was taken offline by Brawl. After he was fixed up and upgraded his endoskeleton reinforcements, he had a renewed determination to keep his vehicle mode in pristine condition.<ref>'''Premium series''' bio</ref>

In the final battle for the AllSpark, Jazz faced off against Bonecrusher for a last battle to the absolute finish.<ref>'''Autobot Jazz vs. Bonecrusher''' bio,</ref> Also in that battle, Jazz took on Megatron alone, as everyone else was preoccupied with Brawl. Although he knew he didn't stand a chance, he would go down fighting for the weak, as a true Autobot would. <ref>'''Battle Jazz vs. Ice Megatron''' bio</ref>

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Jazz was left badly damaged as a result of those confrontations.

Ratchet rebuilt Jazz in what turned out to be a long recovery process. Jazz had time to think. And think he did, about a new paintjob!<ref>Target Exclusive Generation 1-style '''Autobot Jazz''' bio</ref>

{{note|Jazz's fate in the film is about as unambiguous a depiction of a [[Death|Transformer death]] as one could hope for. [[Michael Bay]], when speaking on the subject, stated emphatically, "Jazz is dead". This puts the weight of [[author intent]] on the side of Jazz being truly deceased. Later, in the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' prequel comic, Optimus Prime asked to have Jazz's remains buried. Despite all this, bio information on his Tartet-exclusive [[redeco]] clearly said that he was rebuilt by Ratchet. Make of this what you will. His Allspark power bio says he came back by the power of the AllSpark. This actually happened in an [[Dark Spark|alternate timeline]].}}

Jazz arrived on Earth as part of Optimus Prime's unit, summoned to the [[human]] planet by Bumblebee. After taking on the form of a Pontiac Solstice, he met up with the other Autobots. His first mission was to distract Sector Seven and law enforcement units, which he did, buying his fellow Autobots time to escape. Jazz was then surrounded by Sector Seven SUVs and Decepticon drones numerous times, requiring Ironhide's help to escape.

He would then make his way to [[Mission City]], where he engaged [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] and two [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwing]] drones. Jazz defeated all four of them, but as he celebrated his great victory, [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] appeared behind him and punctured Jazz's chest with his claw, extinguishing his [[spark]]. [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] arrived just in time to witness the killing, swore he'd make Brawl's death slow, and fought through a horde of Decepticon units to destroy him. {{storylink|Transformers The Game (console)|Transformers The Game (console)}}

====Decepticon campaign====
Jazz arrived in Mission City with Sam and Mikaela (taking the role of the destroyed Bumblebee), where he was confronted by [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]. After a brief chase through the city, Jazz engaged Barricade in battle, where he was defeated with ease. {{storylink|Transformers The Game (console)|Transformers The Game (console)}}

Jazz's first appearance is with the other Autobots, meeting in an old junk yard. Setting out into the city, he retrieved a number of [[Sector Seven]] vehicles before running into [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]]; after a tedious battle, Blackout ran. Returning to the group, Jazz reported his findings, and was promptly forgotten about until he's unlocked as a playable character. {{storylink|Transformers Autobots/Decepticons|Transformers: Autobots}}

===''Transformers: Decepticons''===
At the [[Hoover Dam]], Jazz set up several automated turrets and Autobot drones around the lower perimeter of the Dam, preventing [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] from escaping. However, this line of defense only works for so long, as the turrets could only fire at air-borne objects. Finally getting up the side of the Dam, Jazz stepped in Megatron's path, doing little more than trash talking before Megatron jumped into battle. After a roughly equal fight, Jazz finally fell. Megatron then finished him off and desecrated the Autobot's corpse. {{storylink|Transformers Autobots/Decepticons|Transformers: Autobots}}

*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Legends Class, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Jazz'''

:A much smaller version of the character, [[Legends of Cybertron|Legends-class]] Jazz features limited articulation and detail, along with a much simpler transformation. A rather glaring side-effect of this simplicity, in a desire to mimic the hood chest of the larger toy, is the addition of a second front bumper on the roof of his alt-mode. Whether this means Jazz also includes a second engine to go with this front bumper or an attempt at compensation for a case of [[Barricade (Movie)|police car envy]] is unknown. Ironically, the smallest version of Jazz is the biggest Legends toy in the movie line. Even bigger than Optimus. This may make up for the Arcee toy being taller than his Deluxe figure.

*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-04'''
**''Accessories'' Telescoping "sword" (rifle)

:Jazz transforms into a silver [[wikipedia:Pontiac_Solstice|Pontiac Solstice}} Custom Hardtop. Included is a blaster weapon that elongates into a sniper rifle, which may also be clipped directly onto his rear spoiler when in vehicle mode. In robot mode, the section featuring this same rear spoiler may be kept folded onto his back or worn on either shoulder as a shield. An interesting undocumented feature is a hinge joint located on the bottom of the rifle can attach to the ''shield's'' hinge joint, creating three choice weapon configurations: ''(a)'' a mounted long range sniper rifle, ''(b)'' an ambidextrous shoulder-mounted cannon, or ''(c)'' a short range blaster with built-in shield somewhat akin to what has been seen in Jazz's concept art and in the movie itself.

:As with most of the mainline toys, he features a [[Automorph|Automorphing]] gimmick that is activated by pushing the car roof down onto his back and locking it into place. This raises his head and slides his chest panels into proper position for the robot mode. This feature, like the weaponry mentioned above, is not documented at all, so one must be careful to not press the chest ''and'' the back at the same time.

[[Image:Movie G1Jazz toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|"See? Nineteen-Eighty-Four!"]]
*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Target Exclusive Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories'' Telescoping "sword" (rifle)

:An extensive [[redeco]] of Deluxe class Jazz, this Target-[[exclusive]] is heavily based on ''[[Generation 1]]'' [[Jazz (G1)|Jazz's]] Martini Racing scheme. He's lacking in Martini sponsorship for all the obvious reasons, replacing them with his own name. Disco Jazz doesn't really need to advertise, but he does.

:This figure also features a minor retool of the joint in the forearm. On the initial, mass retail release of Deluxe Jazz, the black hinge-joint was able to slide over slightly as part of the original design. The new version features a shorter joint, which makes it a lot less floppy in robot mode. [[Cyberfly|Cyberflies]] sold separately.

*'''Final Battle Jazz''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-14'''
**''Accessories:'' "Crescent Cannon", energy-blast missile

:An extensive retool of Jazz, modifying his head and most of his legs to give them a broken, battle-scarred appearance. Amusingly, because Hasbro chose to keep his vehicle mode pristine, the rest of his body is undamaged. All the damaged parts have a black and blue deco, representing glowing circuitry and exposed conduits.

:Jazz comes with a brand new spring-loaded weapon (called a ''Crescent Cannon'' on the packaging), partially modeled after the actual weapon Jazz appears with in the film. It can fire a transparent blue projectile and, not unlike his original featured weapon, can be mounted in different configurations: ''(a)'' Mounted on his ''right'' arm with the Crescent Cannon missile launcher (with the crescent up) facing forward a la the film, or ''(b)'' mounted on his ''left'' arm with the flip-out rifle barrel pointed forwards (with the crescent down). The cannon can actually be rotated on the connecting peg, allowing the gun to be mounted in either configuration on either arm.

:Unusual for a regular Deluxe class figure, this version of Jazz is packaged on his card in robot mode, no doubt to highlight the changes to the figure that would not be visible in the vehicle mode.

:In addition to the retooled forearm joint also found on the Target exclusive "G1 color" Jazz, a running change variant of Final Battle Jazz adds another peg to the Crescent Cannon, thus allowing Jazz to use the weapon in all the different configurations on either arm.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=40291 Original Allspark thread about the running change mold variant for Final Battle Jazz's Crescent Cannon]</ref>

:In spite of the claim that this is a "final battle" version of Jazz, his torso does not separate easily from his legs.

:This more movie-accurate version of Jazz sports a shinier coat of silver paint, along with added paint application detail to his robot mode parts. As it is a straight redeco, despite his coloration being far closer to the movie model, his weapon is still the old preliminary-art "sword" rather than the <a href="#FinalBattle" title="">"Final Battle" version's</a> much more screen-accurate shield/cannon.

[[Image:Movie FAB Jazz.jpg|right|300px|thumb|The kids love me.]]
*'''Ion Blast Autobot Jazz''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
**''Accessories'': Energy-blast missile

:Though larger than the standard <a href="#Deluxe_Class_toys" title="">Deluxe class Jazz</a>, [[Fast Action Battlers]] "Ion Blast" Jazz is a simplified toy for the younger set with comparatively few parts and detailing. In vehicle mode he's kind of a squat and cutified Pontiac Solstice. His articulation is limited to his shoulders, hips and knees, and has a spring-loaded missile launcher in place of his left hand.

:This toy was later redecoed into [[Smokescreen (Movie)|Sonic Shock Smokescreen]].

:[[Cyber Slammers]] Jazz is an amazingly cute Pontiac Solstic that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot hipster. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along, slowly transforming back up into robot mode. Like most Cyber Slammers, Jazz manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Robot Replica, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' "Crescent cannon" rifle/shield, alternate left & right forearms

:As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] line, this version of Jazz is a non-transforming action figure that utilizes [[Revoltech]]-style jointing. The sculpt hews much closer to the movie CGI model than is possible with the full transforming toys, plus the universal jointing of the line allows for his forearm to be replaced with the included Crescent Cannon (which is also called that on the toy's packaging), or parts from other Robot Replica figures. Jazz's shoulders are actually mounted on the wrong sides of the toy as compared to the [[Transformers (2007)|Movie's]] CG design, but can easily swapped due to the toy's body construction.

:''[[Titanium Series]]'' Jazz is a die-cast metal and plastic figurine, with an accurate sculpt based on the slender CG model owing to the fact he doesn't need to transform. Being a figurine, he only has articulation in his shoulders, neck and waist. Jazz is sculpted with a small handgun that was only featured in concept art early in film development that still showed Arcee as part of the main cast. Jazz comes with a Movie-style Autobot symbol display stand, as is expected.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Movie Jazz armswordconcept.jpg|right|180px|thumb|Cool melee weapon in the game, totally non-existent in the movie.]]
* The packaging text for the Deluxe Jazz figure refers to his weapon as a "telescoping sword". As ridiculous as this sounds considering this weapon ''looks'' like a firearm and can attach to his spoiler in vehicle mode as such, this very idea actually comes from concept drawings of a sword weapon featured on the same concept art that also had Jazz showcasing the short range blaster/shield thingy both featured in the film and included with his Final Battle retool. So, ''really''... not that ridiculous anymore.

* According to a press kit sent out in conjunction with the movie, Jazz has a "near-perfect recordable memory that makes him invaluable as a documenter of battles" and is "equipped with a fusion engine that allows him to reach sub-light speeds in vehicle mode." [http://numberonestars.com/transformers/production/autobots.htm] One, uh, would ''hope'' a Pontiac Solstice would be travelling at ''sub''-light speeds...

* During the final battle in [[Mission City]], there's a long period where Jazz is not doing ''anything''. He's standing around in vehicle mode when Ironhide notices that the F-22 flying above the city is Starscream, stays in vehicle mode when Ironhide and Bumblebee pick up a Furby delivery truck for cover, ''still'' remains in vehicle mode when Starscream blasts them, and after Sam discovers that Bumblebee has lost his legs, all Jazz does is pull back for a few feet to give Bumblebee space to crawl. In the end, Jazz doesn't really join the battle ''at all'' until Brawl shows up.

* In an earlier draft of the movie script, [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] was supposed to "consume" the Sparks of Autobots he killed. A remainder of this can be found in the novelization and the IDW comic adaptation of the movie, which both explicitly state that Megatron tears out Jazz's Spark. In the movie itself, however, Megatron simply appears to kill Jazz by ripping him apart at the waist, even though [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] was previously able to survive as a detached head. However, a recent rejiggering of Frenzy's biology makes this a moot point.

* Though it is very brief, Jazz does indeed get a face close-up during the Mission City battle when he is shot by Megatron and falls over in pain, before he is ripped in half.

* In an appeal to his better nature in [[Transformers (Titan Magazine)|Titan]], Optimus said part of him was "still Autobot Jazz": a reference to the name of the Jazz toys.

:''Jazz is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|2007 movie franchise]] in the [[Live-action film series|live-action film]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:MovieJazz promorender.jpg|right|350px|thumb|"Slide with me. Just bounce with me. Now freeze!"]]
First Lieutenant '''Jazz''' is one happy-go-lucky Autobot. Good-natured and always able to take things in stride, he provides a decent contrast to the more serious demeanor of [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] or [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Prime]] himself. He's also a talker, something Ironhide and Prime like to tease him about. He might be the smallest Autobot but he's by no means a coward. His only real complaint is that he always gets stuck fighting [[Frenzy (Movie)|the small ones]].

{{bigquote|Oh, I got something ''real'' flashy in mind!|—Jazz gets ready to create a distraction, [[Transformers The Game (console)|Transformers The Game]]}}

==Fiction==
===IDW ''Transformers'' movie comics===
[[Image:Defiance1 Ratchet Jazz vocalprocessors.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Kup and Ratchet like blaming turbo revvin young punks.]]
Many years before the civil war on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Jazz was a member of the science division. As Optimus pondered the venerable age of the artifacts they had found at an excavation near the temple of [[Simfur]], Jazz jokingly asked if they were as old as [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]], earning him a threat of [[vocal processor]]-disabling retribution and a wack on the back of the head. He was present when [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee's]] team found a strange artifact with the [[Decepticon|strange symbol]] and helped escort the relic out of the dig site when the aliens whom Commander [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] had encountered earlier suddenly attacked the planet. {{storylink|Defiance issue 1}}

In the aftermath, Jazz accompanied [[Prowl (Movie)|Prowl]] as the latter investigated the attack on the Simfur temple. Prowl theorised that the aliens were trying to break into the temple, not destroy it, Jazz opinied that they must have been after the [[All Spark]]. When Megatron rallied Cybertron's inhabitants to war against the alien attackers, Jazz and most of the others in the science and security division loyally stayed at Optimus Prime's side to uphold the ideals of Cybertron. Later, when Prime mentioned Megatron's questionable behavior and wished there was unity in the population, Jazz pointed out that he had the same chance of convincing Megatron to be unified as they do of being considered part of his army. Realising sentries such as Prowl and Jazz had access to Megatron's personal quarters, Prime asked them for a favour. {{storylink|Defiance issue 2}}

{{charstubfiction}}
{{storylink|Defiance issue 3}}

During the war, Optimus Prime decided to launch the All Spark into space to keep it out of Lord Megatron's hands. [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] was successful in diverting the Decepticon leader's attention at [[Tyger Pax]], but was grievously injured as a result. Jazz was part of the team that discovered him after the Decepticons had left. {{storylink|Prime Directive (IDW) issue 1}}

As the Autobots prepared to leave Cybertron to go after Megatron and the All Spark, Optimus Prime expressed concern on if the remaining civilians and Autobots on Cybertron could hold out while they were gone. Jazz informed him that their troops were laying low, but if the Decepticons tried any mischief, they would be in for a nasty surprise. {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream issue 1}}
{{-}}

===''Ghosts Of Yesterday'' prequel novel===
Onboard the ''Ark'', Jazz was the first to detect the ''[[Ghost 1|Ghost 1's]]'' presence, and was later badly damaged in a fight with the Decepticons. After being repaired, he and [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] fought together against [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]. {{storylink|Ghosts of Yesterday}}

{{charstubfiction}}

===Titan Magazines ''Transformers'' movie comics===
Jazz likes "to keep his bodywork ''buff''" by externalizing his [[Spark]] Core forcefield - in the past, that led to him almost being killed when [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]] almost tore out his unprotected Spark. He only survived thanks to fellow Autobot [[Clocker (Movie)|Clocker]], who was killed covering his retreat. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 6|Lost In Space 4: Jazz}}

When the [[All Spark]] was launched, Jazz, [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] and [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] attempted to distract Megatron from pursuing it. They ended up attacked by [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] and warped across space by a fold-space weapon. {{storylink|Prelude: Megatron|Prelude: Megatron}}

[[Image:JazzTitan06.JPG|left|250px|thumb|"I HAVE SEEN THE LORD!"]]

Jazz ended up on a planet that he dubbed "the Information Highway" - a constantly-morphing world with "the accumulated knowledge of countless alien cultures, condensed into some kind of sensory precipitation". He loved this world and the constant new experiences so much that he deliberately ignored Ratchet's homing beacon, wanting to stay here forever. However, the planet was alive and predatory, and ended up absorbing him into it - he fired off a warning buoy to stop others arriving, and only this led to Ratchet & Ironhide finding where he was and rescuing him. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 6|Lost In Space 4: Jazz}}

He doesn't like the war and, as the Information Highway incident shows, has no qualms about deserting if given the opportunity.

{{note|The following events occur in an alternate timeline/continuity where Megatron won the battle of Mission City.}}
Because of a lack of troops on [[Earth]], Ratchet used a corrupted fragment of the All Spark to bring Jazz back to life.<ref name="allsparkjazzbio"> '''All Spark-Enhanced Autobot Jazz''' bio</ref> Happy to be back, Jazz blew off the suggestion that death had made any impact beyond him wanting to live every day as if it was his last, and he was dispatched with Ratchet to secure a raw energon field.

[[Image:JazzTitan21.JPG|right|250px|thumb|"And my sound effects are inane!"]]

Unfortunately, it turned out the corrupted fragment had indeed led to Jazz himself being corrupted; he paralyzed Ratchet and attempted to exploit Earth's apocalypse by selling the newly energon rich planet to the highest bidder. His auction was interrupted by [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwing]], who rejected an offer to join forces, and attacked. Ratchet revived and managed to destroy the energon field the auction was being held in; Jazz escaped in the resulting confusion. {{storylink|Dark Spark|Dark Spark}}

He later kept back as a happy hired gun for [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], out to murder Optimus Prime. He was prevented from this when the ''second'' hired gun, [[Kullt]], turned up; he realised Starscream didn't trust him to be able kill an old comrade and was so insulted he gunned down the other mercenary. He was left rattled when Optimus pointed out he could have let Kullt do the work for him and ''then'' gun him down, which suggested there was still some goodness in him. He drove off in the face of reinforcements, vowing to prove Optimus wrong next time. {{storylink|Hard Target|Hard Target}}

===''Transformers'' (2007) film===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Darius McCrary]] (English), [[Taiten Kusunoki]] (Japanese), [[Torsten Michaelis]] (German)

[[Image:Movie2007 Jazz dealership.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Why buy? When you can be!]]
Jazz was part of Optimus Prime's unit, summoned to Earth by [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] after the latter Autobot came to be in the possession of [[Sam Witwicky]]. After his [[protoform]] crashed through a baseball stadium, he investigated a nearby car dealership and chose a Pontiac Solstice hardtop as his vehicle mode.

[[Image:Jazz movie ally.JPG|right|250px|thumb|Sadly, the other car's owner only had liability.]]

Linking up with his fellow Autobots in a deserted alley, Jazz greeted Sam and [[Mikaela Banes]] as "little bitches," stating that Earth seems to be a cool place to hang out. He casually sat on the hood of another car while Optimus Prime explained to Sam they learnt Earth's languages through the internet. He then relayed their mission to find the [[All Spark]] and explained how his [[Archibald Witwicky|grandfather's]] glasses were the key to its location.

Soon after, as Sam looked for his grandfather's glasses, the Autobots attempted to assist by clumsily destroying the yard where they went. When it came to hide from [[Ronald Witwicky|the]] [[Judy Witwicky|parents]], Jazz had the easiest time blending into the shadows due to his small stature.

When Sam and Mikaela were captured by [[Sector Seven]], the Autobots mounted a rescue that saw Optimus Prime tearing the roof off [[Reggie Simmons|Agent Simmons']] vehicle. When the agents attempted to resist, Jazz used a magnet to relieve the humans of their weapons. After Bumblebee was captured by Sector Seven during the retreat, Jazz expressed his desire to rescue him, but was overruled by Optimus Prime, who didn't believe it possible to accomplish this without harming the humans, and so they should let them go.

The next day, after Optimus used his navigation scanner on Archibald Witwicky's glasses, Jazz again commented that they could not leave Bumblebee to die at the hands of Sector Seven, to become a human experiment. Optimus replied that Bumblebee would die in vain if they did not find the All Spark, and when Ironhide asked if the primitive and cruel humans deserved to be saved, Optimus countered by asking if Transformers were so different in the past. Going on to explain what he saw in the humans, Prime declared that if it came to it, he would sacrifice himself to destroy the All Spark - the humans should not pay for Cybertron's mistakes. Inspired by his words, Jazz and the other Autobots rolled out, filled with determination.

[[Image:Movie Jazz on Brawl.JPG|left|250px|thumb|"Come on, Decepticon punk!" "MY MISSILE LAUNCHER! That's like a reproductive organ to me!"]]

On the way to [[Hoover Dam]], the Autobots encountered Bumblebee leading a column of Sector Seven assault vehicles. Jazz and his fellow Autobots applied brakes and did a hard u-turn to join the formation.

Entering [[Mission City]], the [[William Lennox|human]] [[Robert Epps|soldiers]] tried to call for air support from their own forces, only to be attacked by [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] disguised as a human F-22 fighter. Jazz, oddly, sat in vehicle mode after the explosion which crippled Bumblebee, destroying his legs. When [[Brawl (Movie)|Devastator]] began shelling the battle site, Jazz led the Autobot charge toward the Decepticon, speeding to the tank in vehicle mode, then transformed and hopped on top of the turret to distract the Decepticon from the humans. As Devastator also transformed, Jazz managed to wreck his left-side rocket launcher pod before being tossed off. He then sped back to the battle, firing at Devastator, while [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] sliced of Devastator's left arm.

[[Image:Movie2007 Jazz fighting Megatron.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Wait, why did I tell everyone to retreat again?"]]

Jazz tried to delay [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] when he appeared on the scene in order to cover the escape Captain Lennox's men and civilians. Despite Lennox's cries for him to fall back, Jazz bravely faced Megatron alone, but all he got for his trouble was being blasted by the Decepticon's fusion cannon. As Ironhide and Ratchet escorted Sam and the All Spark to safety, Megatron preyed upon the small Autobot who had the audacity to attack him. The Decepticon leader tossed him through the air, then landed upon him with the crushing grip of his talons. Valiantly, Jazz fought on to the bitter end as Megatron tore him in two, throwing his pieces to the ground before attacking Optimus Prime.

[[Image:Movie Prime Jazz Ironhide Ratchet battleaftermath.jpg|left|250px|thumb|"We lost a great comrade today. We'll miss you, Blues." "His name was ''Jazz'', Prime." "Whatever."]]

After being separated from Sam Witwicky, Ratchet hurried to Jazz, but his [[spark]] had already faded. In the aftermath of Megatron's defeat, Ironhide somberly handed Optimus Prime Jazz's remains as Ratchet reported that he could not save their comrade. The Autobot leader somewhat half-heartedly eulogized him, and quickly moved on. {{storylink|Transformers (2007)|Transformers (2007)}}

===Toy packaging bios===
Before coming to Earth, Jazz was involved in a deep-space battle over a barren world. He was badly damaged in the conflict and was taken offline by Brawl. After he was fixed up and upgraded his endoskeleton reinforcements, he had a renewed determination to keep his vehicle mode in pristine condition.<ref>'''Premium series''' bio</ref>

In the final battle for the AllSpark, Jazz faced off against Bonecrusher for a last battle to the absolute finish.<ref>'''Autobot Jazz vs. Bonecrusher''' bio,</ref> Also in that battle, Jazz took on Megatron alone, as everyone else was preoccupied with Brawl. Although he knew he didn't stand a chance, he would go down fighting for the weak, as a true Autobot would. <ref>'''Battle Jazz vs. Ice Megatron''' bio</ref>

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Jazz was left badly damaged as a result of those confrontations.

Ratchet rebuilt Jazz in what turned out to be a long recovery process. Jazz had time to think. And think he did, about a new paintjob!<ref>Target Exclusive Generation 1-style '''Autobot Jazz''' bio</ref>

Jazz came back, and more powerful than ever due to the power of the AllSpark. <ref name="allsparkjazzbio"/> {{storylink|Dark Spark|Dark Spark}}

{{note|Jazz's fate in the film is about as unambiguous a depiction of a [[Death|Transformer death]] as one could hope for. [[Michael Bay]], when speaking on the subject, stated emphatically, "Jazz is dead". This puts the weight of [[author intent]] on the side of Jazz being truly deceased. Later, in the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' prequel comic, Optimus Prime asked to have Jazz's remains buried. Despite all this, bio information on his Tartet-exclusive [[redeco]] clearly said that he was rebuilt by Ratchet. Make of this what you will. His Allspark power bio says he came back by the power of the AllSpark. This actually happened in an [[Dark Spark|alternate timeline]].}}

[[Image:Alliance1 Ironhide-Jazz momentofsilence.jpg|right|250px|thumb|He's dead Jim.]]
Shortly after the battle in Mission City, Captain Lennox, Sergeant Epps and the other soldiers helped Ironhide find suitable transportation for Jazz's remains. As Ironhide sombrely placed Jazz's body into the trailer, the soldiers lowered their heads in honour of the Autobot who sacrificed his life to save theirs. {{storylink|Alliance issue 1|Alliance issue 1}}

Later in the Nevada Desert, Optimus Prime and the other Autobots arrived with Jazz's remains. The Autobots escorted the Decepticons' carcasses while the U.S Navy planned on giving a proper burial ceremony for Jazz. {{storylink|Alliance issue 2|Alliance issue 2}} Weeks later, the Autobots and their soldier friends are on a US Navy aircraft carrier for Jazz's burial at sea. A crane hoisted the trailer containing Jazz's body and dropped it into the ocean. Optimus Prime thanked Lennox for his participation in Jazz's burial. {{storylink|Alliance issue 3|Alliance issue 3}}

====Autobot campaign====
[[Image:VGE4M3Jazzkabob.jpg|right|180px|thumb|"Ironhide, check this out." "Cool, a piñata!" "...Hate...both of...you..."]]
Jazz arrived on Earth as part of Optimus Prime's unit, summoned to the [[human]] planet by Bumblebee. After taking on the form of a Pontiac Solstice, he met up with the other Autobots. His first mission was to distract Sector Seven and law enforcement units, which he did, buying his fellow Autobots time to escape. Jazz was then surrounded by Sector Seven SUVs and Decepticon drones numerous times, requiring Ironhide's help to escape.

He would then make his way to [[Mission City]], where he engaged [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] and two [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwing]] drones. Jazz defeated all four of them, but as he celebrated his great victory, [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] appeared behind him and punctured Jazz's chest with his claw, extinguishing his [[spark]]. [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] arrived just in time to witness the killing, swore he'd make Brawl's death slow, and fought through a horde of Decepticon units to destroy him. {{storylink|Transformers The Game (console)|Transformers The Game (console)}}

====Decepticon campaign====
Jazz arrived in Mission City with Sam and Mikaela (taking the role of the destroyed Bumblebee), where he was confronted by [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]. After a brief chase through the city, Jazz engaged Barricade in battle, where he was defeated with ease. {{storylink|Transformers The Game (console)|Transformers The Game (console)}}

===''Transformers: Autobots''===
Jazz's first appearance is with the other Autobots, meeting in an old junk yard. Setting out into the city, he retrieved a number of [[Sector Seven]] vehicles before running into [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]]; after a tedious battle, Blackout ran. Returning to the group, Jazz reported his findings, and was promptly forgotten about until he's unlocked as a playable character. {{storylink|Transformers Autobots/Decepticons|Transformers: Autobots}}

===''Transformers: Decepticons''===
At the [[Hoover Dam]], Jazz set up several automated turrets and Autobot drones around the lower perimeter of the Dam, preventing [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] from escaping. However, this line of defense only works for so long, as the turrets could only fire at air-borne objects. Finally getting up the side of the Dam, Jazz stepped in Megatron's path, doing little more than trash talking before Megatron jumped into battle. After a roughly equal fight, Jazz finally fell. Megatron then finished him off and desecrated the Autobot's corpse. {{storylink|Transformers Autobots/Decepticons|Transformers: Autobots}}

*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Legends Class, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Jazz'''

:A much smaller version of the character, [[Legends of Cybertron|Legends-class]] Jazz features limited articulation and detail, along with a much simpler transformation. A rather glaring side-effect of this simplicity, in a desire to mimic the hood chest of the larger toy, is the addition of a second front bumper on the roof of his alt-mode. Whether this means Jazz also includes a second engine to go with this front bumper or an attempt at compensation for a case of [[Barricade (Movie)|police car envy]] is unknown. Ironically, the smallest version of Jazz is the biggest Legends toy in the movie line. Even bigger than Optimus. This may make up for the Arcee toy being taller than his Deluxe figure.

*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-04'''
**''Accessories'' Telescoping "sword" (rifle)

:Jazz transforms into a silver [[wikipedia:Pontiac_Solstice|Pontiac Solstice}} Custom Hardtop. Included is a blaster weapon that elongates into a sniper rifle, which may also be clipped directly onto his rear spoiler when in vehicle mode. In robot mode, the section featuring this same rear spoiler may be kept folded onto his back or worn on either shoulder as a shield. An interesting undocumented feature is a hinge joint located on the bottom of the rifle can attach to the ''shield's'' hinge joint, creating three choice weapon configurations: ''(a)'' a mounted long range sniper rifle, ''(b)'' an ambidextrous shoulder-mounted cannon, or ''(c)'' a short range blaster with built-in shield somewhat akin to what has been seen in Jazz's concept art and in the movie itself.

:As with most of the mainline toys, he features a [[Automorph|Automorphing]] gimmick that is activated by pushing the car roof down onto his back and locking it into place. This raises his head and slides his chest panels into proper position for the robot mode. This feature, like the weaponry mentioned above, is not documented at all, so one must be careful to not press the chest ''and'' the back at the same time.

*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Target Exclusive Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories'' Telescoping "sword" (rifle)

:An extensive [[redeco]] of Deluxe class Jazz, this Target-[[exclusive]] is heavily based on ''[[Generation 1]]'' [[Jazz (G1)|Jazz's]] Martini Racing scheme. He's lacking in Martini sponsorship for all the obvious reasons, replacing them with his own name. Disco Jazz doesn't really need to advertise, but he does.

:This figure also features a minor retool of the joint in the forearm. On the initial, mass retail release of Deluxe Jazz, the black hinge-joint was able to slide over slightly as part of the original design. The new version features a shorter joint, which makes it a lot less floppy in robot mode. [[Cyberfly|Cyberflies]] sold separately.

*'''Final Battle Jazz''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-14'''
**''Accessories:'' "Crescent Cannon", energy-blast missile

:An extensive retool of Jazz, modifying his head and most of his legs to give them a broken, battle-scarred appearance. Amusingly, because Hasbro chose to keep his vehicle mode pristine, the rest of his body is undamaged. All the damaged parts have a black and blue deco, representing glowing circuitry and exposed conduits.

:Jazz comes with a brand new spring-loaded weapon (called a ''Crescent Cannon'' on the packaging), partially modeled after the actual weapon Jazz appears with in the film. It can fire a transparent blue projectile and, not unlike his original featured weapon, can be mounted in different configurations: ''(a)'' Mounted on his ''right'' arm with the Crescent Cannon missile launcher (with the crescent up) facing forward a la the film, or ''(b)'' mounted on his ''left'' arm with the flip-out rifle barrel pointed forwards (with the crescent down). The cannon can actually be rotated on the connecting peg, allowing the gun to be mounted in either configuration on either arm.

:Unusual for a regular Deluxe class figure, this version of Jazz is packaged on his card in robot mode, no doubt to highlight the changes to the figure that would not be visible in the vehicle mode.

:In addition to the retooled forearm joint also found on the Target exclusive "G1 color" Jazz, a running change variant of Final Battle Jazz adds another peg to the Crescent Cannon, thus allowing Jazz to use the weapon in all the different configurations on either arm.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=40291 Original Allspark thread about the running change mold variant for Final Battle Jazz's Crescent Cannon]</ref>

:In spite of the claim that this is a "final battle" version of Jazz, his torso does not separate easily from his legs.

:This more movie-accurate version of Jazz sports a shinier coat of silver paint, along with added paint application detail to his robot mode parts. As it is a straight redeco, despite his coloration being far closer to the movie model, his weapon is still the old preliminary-art "sword" rather than the <a href="#FinalBattle" title="">"Final Battle" version's</a> much more screen-accurate shield/cannon.

In vehicle mode he's kind of a squat and cutified Pontiac Solstice. His articulation is limited to his shoulders, hips and knees, and has a spring-loaded missile launcher in place of his left hand.

:This toy was later redecoed into [[Smokescreen (Movie)|Sonic Shock Smokescreen]].

====Cyber Slammers====
[[Image:Movie Jazz CyberSlammer.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Silver scratches too easy, ask Jazz.]]
*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Cyber Slammers, 2007)

:[[Cyber Slammers]] Jazz is an amazingly cute Pontiac Solstic that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot hipster. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along, slowly transforming back up into robot mode. Like most Cyber Slammers, Jazz manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

====Robot Replicas====

*'''Autobot Jazz''' (Robot Replica, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' "Crescent cannon" rifle/shield, alternate left & right forearms

:As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] line, this version of Jazz is a non-transforming action figure that utilizes [[Revoltech]]-style jointing. The sculpt hews much closer to the movie CGI model than is possible with the full transforming toys, plus the universal jointing of the line allows for his forearm to be replaced with the included Crescent Cannon (which is also called that on the toy's packaging), or parts from other Robot Replica figures. Jazz's shoulders are actually mounted on the wrong sides of the toy as compared to the [[Transformers (2007)|Movie's]] CG design, but can easily swapped due to the toy's body construction.

====Titanium Series====
[[Image:Movie TitaniumRM Jazz.jpg|right|200px|thumb|"Are you looking at me?"]]
*'''Autobot Jazz''' (3" Robot Masters, 2007)
*''Accessories'' Movie-style Autobot sigil display stand

:''[[Titanium Series]]'' Jazz is a die-cast metal and plastic figurine, with an accurate sculpt based on the slender CG model owing to the fact he doesn't need to transform. Being a figurine, he only has articulation in his shoulders, neck and waist. Jazz is sculpted with a small handgun that was only featured in concept art early in film development that still showed Arcee as part of the main cast. Jazz comes with a Movie-style Autobot symbol display stand, as is expected.

====Unleashed====
[[Image:Movie UnleashedTurnarounds RatchetJazz.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Ratchet, unable to re-attach Jazz's lower torso, fitted Jazz with one of those things the Quintesson Judges float with, and made it flamin'!]]
*'''Autobot Ratchet and Autobot Jazz''' (2008)

:The Ratchet and Jazz turnaround is a 3D sculpture of the two characters, both in robot mode, emerging from rubble and explosions, with a movie-accurate sculpt (compared to the various transforming toys). The "turnaround" aspect of these sculptures simply means one can turn the piece around to display a raised-relief of the movie-style Autobot sigil instead.

:This product's release was canceled for the US market, but was released in Australia and in Asia.

====Transformers Movie Danglers====
[[Image:Movie Jazz Dangler.jpg|right|159px|thumb|How did you know i was a gundam?]]
*'''Autobot Jazz''' (2007)

:Released by [[Tomy Yujin]] in November 2007<ref name="TomyYujin">[http://www.gachausa.com/products/transformers.asp Tomy Yujin ''Transformers'' page]</ref> as part of the [[Danglers Collection]], this toy is a weird plastic [[super-deformed]] version of Jazz that pops out his vehicle mode when you squeeze him, kinda like he's either giving birth to it or...er, excreting it. Classy. This little figurine has a little strap on it so that it can be put on cell phones or portable gaming devices.

====Transformers Movie Screen Cleaners====

*'''Autobot Jazz vs. Decepticon Frenzy''' (2007)

: This pack of cutely sculpted figurines features an oddly brown-coloured Frenzy.
{{-}}

[[Image:Rhjazzbrawl.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Yeah, um, that sure is Jazz.]]
*'''Protoform Jazz vs. Decepticon Brawl''' (2007)

:This ''Robot Heroes'' pack features a cutely murderous figurine of Brawl, and Jazz in his "[[Protoform]]" mode. Considering the generic nature of the protoforms, Protoform Jazz can easily represent any of his other three companions who crash landed to Earth. Like many Robot Heroes, he's jointed at the shoulders and neck.
{{-}}

[[Image:Robotheroesfinalbattle.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Hi, then die.]]
*'''The Final Battle''' (2008)

: Packaged with Autobot Ratchet, Megatron, Blackout, and Optimus Prime, "Battle Damage" Jazz is a slightly redecoed version of the first two pack version. His exclusive deco involves a black paint wash and black-lined cracks over a shiny silver painted finish. The Final Battle 5-pack was sold exclusively in Walmart stores.
{{-}}

[[Image:Robotheroesjazzmegatron.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Okay, this is getting ridiculous.]]
*'''Battle Jazz vs Megatron''' (2008)

:Once again the first Jazz sculpt is given a battle damage deco. This time black cracks and starbursts are painted over dull unpainted silver plastic.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
[[Image:Movie Jazz armswordconcept.jpg|right|180px|thumb|Cool melee weapon in the game, totally non-existent in the movie.]]
* The packaging text for the Deluxe Jazz figure refers to his weapon as a "telescoping sword". As ridiculous as this sounds considering this weapon ''looks'' like a firearm and can attach to his spoiler in vehicle mode as such, this very idea actually comes from concept drawings of a sword weapon featured on the same concept art that also had Jazz showcasing the short range blaster/shield thingy both featured in the film and included with his Final Battle retool. So, ''really''... not that ridiculous anymore.

* According to a press kit sent out in conjunction with the movie, Jazz has a "near-perfect recordable memory that makes him invaluable as a documenter of battles" and is "equipped with a fusion engine that allows him to reach sub-light speeds in vehicle mode." [http://numberonestars.com/transformers/production/autobots.htm] One, uh, would ''hope'' a Pontiac Solstice would be travelling at ''sub''-light speeds...

* During the final battle in [[Mission City]], there's a long period where Jazz is not doing ''anything''. He's standing around in vehicle mode when Ironhide notices that the F-22 flying above the city is Starscream, stays in vehicle mode when Ironhide and Bumblebee pick up a Furby delivery truck for cover, ''still'' remains in vehicle mode when Starscream blasts them, and after Sam discovers that Bumblebee has lost his legs, all Jazz does is pull back for a few feet to give Bumblebee space to crawl. In the end, Jazz doesn't really join the battle ''at all'' until Brawl shows up.

* In an earlier draft of the movie script, [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] was supposed to "consume" the Sparks of Autobots he killed. A remainder of this can be found in the novelization and the IDW comic adaptation of the movie, which both explicitly state that Megatron tears out Jazz's Spark. In the movie itself, however, Megatron simply appears to kill Jazz by ripping him apart at the waist, even though [[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] was previously able to survive as a detached head. However, a recent rejiggering of Frenzy's biology makes this a moot point.

* Though it is very brief, Jazz does indeed get a face close-up during the Mission City battle when he is shot by Megatron and falls over in pain, before he is ripped in half.

* In an appeal to his better nature in [[Transformers (Titan Magazine)|Titan]], Optimus said part of him was "still Autobot Jazz": a reference to the name of the Jazz toys.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Legends Class, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Bumblebee'''

: Legends Bumblebee transforms into a yellow 1976 Chevrolet Camaro. Being a highly simplified toy of a highly complex design, Legends-class Bumblebee does not replicate the appearance of the robot mode very well, and has very limited articulation, detail and paint application. On the other hand, he's pocket-sized and inexpensive, perfect for the younger set. The toy has a sculpted rear window, but it's not painted like the other windows. instead, the racing stripes extend over them.

{{-}}
*'''Optimus Prime bonus pack''' (Costco exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

: As part of the ''AllSpark Battles'' Legends two-packs, a slightly redecoed Legends class Bumblebee, now sporting "battle damage" paint applications, comes with an all-new Legends [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] figure.

{{-}}
====Deluxe Class toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemovietoydeluxe67.jpg|right|250px|thumb|These used cars are fully loaded!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Classic Camaro, 2007)
**''ID number:'' '''MA-03'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: The first Deluxe Class version of Movie Bumblebee transforms into a yellow [[wikipedia:Second-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|1976 Chevrolet Camaro]] with a quite reasonable level of sculpted detail. In contrast to the other Deluxe-class car Transformers in the Movie toyline, he does not have clear windows, instead opting for opaque yellow plastic with painted metallic blue.

: Bumblebee is armed with two shoulder-mounted spring-loaded missile launchers (inspired by the shoulder-mounted missile launchers he uses to fight Brawl/Devastator in the movie), which also double as hand-held weapons or can be mounted on ports on the undersides of his elbows. His legs and chest [[Automorph]] during transformation.

: The initial release of the toy featured even tabs for the Automorph gimmick; oddly, Hasbro later decided to [[retool]] the feature so the tab would be uneven.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=29613 Original Allspark thread about the retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref> This resulted in many reported cases of the tab snapping during transformation. Press the button or you'll break him. Seriously. The retooled Automorph gimmick would be used for all subsequent versions of the mold, including the Japanese ones, and the breakage problem wouldn't be fixed until the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack and the Target exclusive "Evolution of a Hero" two-pack.

[[Image:Movie Deluxe 1974 Bumblebee JPtoy.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Never seen so much translucent plastic in all my life.]]
: Packaging photos and early [[Prototype|test shots]] of Hasbro's Bumblebee featured transparent blue plastic windows and missile parts. However, the final Hasbro production toy has opaque yellow plastic. The Japanese [[TakaraTomy]] release of Bumblebee retains the transparent blue plastic parts, with yellow paint for the outer car shell. As a consequence, the missiles, which are on the same sprue, are also made of clear blue plastic, just like the early prototype seen in the Hasbro stock photos for the toy. He also uses the retooled version of the mold with the fixed [[Automorph]] gimmick.

The packaging used for the Japanese toy is the same as for the Hasbro version, with the exception of additional stickers identifying it as a Japanese market release.
{{-}}
[[Image:Bumblebee Barricade deluxeboxset.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Go ahead, make my day!"]]
*'''Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This battle pack contains the 1976 Camaro deluxe-class Bumblebee and the deluxe-class [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]/[[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] figures, based upon their confrontation as seen in the movie. The box features a diorama-style background from a movie scene, but toys themselves are unchanged from their original carded releases.

: The set originally retailed for only slightly less than buying the two individual toys. However, for a short while, it was about the only way to ''get'' Bumblebee in the first place, thanks to the [[Movie (toyline)|toy drought]] following the movie's record-smashing opening.

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee Limited Metallic Color Version''' (Lawson exclusive Deluxe-sized Classic Camaro, TakaraTomy 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: A redeco of the Japanese version of the Classic Camaro Bumblebee mold (retaining the clear blue windows and missiles) that was exclusively available with the purchase of a ticket for the movie in Japanese Lawson stores.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie TowedtoSafety toys.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Sadly, All Spark Insurance doesn't cover towing charges.]]
*'''Towed to Safety''' (two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This set features an unaltered Deluxe class [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] figure and a Deluxe class 1976 Camaro Bumblebee figure. The window box features a diorama background of the battle in [[Mission City]] (basically the same packaging inner tray from the "Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter" pack). As is generally the case with the European releases of the Movie toys, the pictures on the front of the box show the robot-mode toys instead of an artist's depiction of their faces.

: For this two-pack, Hasbro slightly retooled Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick again, adding another small tab that finally resolved the breakage issues that had plagued the previous variation of the mold.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=38149 Allspark thread about the second retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref>

:Thus far, this pack has only been released in the United Kingdom.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Deluxe 2009 Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Nu-uh! You don't want none of this!]]
*'''Bumblebee (Camaro Concept)''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-10'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: The second Deluxe class Bumblebee toy, which shares no parts with the previous one (even the head, despite being based on the same general design, is a different sculpt), transforms into the [[wikipedia:Fifth-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|concept vehicle for the 2009 Chevrolet Camaro]]. Maintaining the high standard for car accuracy in the movie line, Bumblebee is very faithful to the real-life vehicle, featuring clear blue windows in contrast to the opaque windows seen in both his previous Deluxe class toy and the Ultimate Bumblebee toy.

: Bumblebee features two [[Automorph|Automorphing]] gimmicks during transformation: ''(a)'' swinging his hood down into robot mode position also moves his arms up and ''(b)'', swinging his feet down will move the rear fenders up and behind his calves, as well as swinging the rear windows to his inner calves in a spring-loaded action. Unusually, this version of Bumblebee is much more accurate to the CGI design than either the older-model Deluxe OR the Ultimate figure, with the chest properly articulating in a fairly Movie-accurate manner. He's also slightly taller than most of the other Deluxe Class figures.

: Bumblebee features a superb range of articulation, with ball joints in his shoulders, neck, torso, wrists and upper legs, with ratcheting and swivels making up the remaining joints. Instead of the rather inaccurate missile launchers from the 1976 Camaro toy, '09 Bumblebee comes with a mostly accurate version of his plasma cannon as it appears in the movie, but for added play value, it can Automorph into an energy blade by opening up the halves of the gun barrel and swinging them back. The cannon can be held in either of his hands.

: Care should be taken when removing the cannon from Bumblebee's hands, as excessive force can damage the wrist ball joint socket.

: Contrary to popular opinion, the yellow pieces on the back of Bumblebee's feet are ''not'' supposed to be heel spurs, nor have they been mis-assembled. They are supposed to fold up to emulate the detail found on the CGI design.

: A running change version of this mold adds tabs to the hip panels, which makes the vehicle mode hold together better, as well as sculpted pupils inside Bumblebee's eyes.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=144325 TFW2005 thread about the retool for the second Deluxe Bumblebee toy]</ref> Initially this was believed to be a variant for the Japanese market; however, later shipments of the Hasbro toy featured those changes as well, as did all subsequent versions of the mold.

: This mold was also used to make "Allspark Power" [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee Evolutionofahero.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Hey, look, Concept Camaro, now you are the piece o' crap.]]
*'''Evolution of a Hero''' (Target exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles, Plasma cannon

: A Target exclusive, this figure multi-pack contains an unchanged Deluxe-class 1976 Bumblebee and an exclusive "battle damaged" 2009 Camaro Concept Bumblebee. Even though the 2009 figure is supposed to represent Bumblebee's damaged state as he appeared during the final battle in the movie, oddly enough the "damage" paint decos do not appear to extend to his legs, restricting themselves to his upper torso and car roof/door parts. Maybe they didn't bother because they thought you'd take them off like in the movie. Go figure.

:The Classic Camaro Bumblebee toy included in this package features the same "fixed" Automorph gimmick also found on the version included in the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack. In addition, the Automorph button on the hood ''finally'' sports the painted pinstripes that had been missing on ''all'' previous releases of the mold.

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee and Optimus Prime''' (Argos exclusive two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: A two-pack, exclusively available at Argos stores in the United Kingdom, which contains an unchanged Voyager-class [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and an equally unchanged Deluxe-class Concept Camaro Bumblebee.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie ScreenBattles CaptureofBB.jpg|right|250px|thumb|You'll never take me alive!]]
*'''Capture of Bumblebee''' (Screen Battles diorama pack, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-04'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes a [[Redeco|redecoed]] Camaro Concept Deluxe-class Bumblebee featuring a more accurate gray color scheme for his robot mode parts and a silver-painted face, Autobot symbol and toes. Additionally, a new red Autobot symbol is placed on his forehead, while his translucent parts are now a greener blue. The pack also comes with non-posable figurines of [[Sector Seven]] agent [[Reggie Simmons]] and two Sector Seven soldiers; one carrying a cryo-freezing cannon and one carrying a grenade launcher.

: This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the scene in which Bumblebee is captured by Sector Seven forces.

:According to details listed in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this pack was originally supposed to feature "ice soldiers" (plural), in addition to an "S7 agent" and an "S7 soldier". Apparently budget ultimately only allowed for one. The grenade launcher-wielding S7 soldier also looks conspicuously like [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]] colored as a Sector Seven soldier (it's possible that the figure had originally been intended for the Screen Battles "Desert Attack" pack with [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]]).

{{-}}
[[Image:MovieTargetAllsparkDeluxeBumblebee.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Bumblebee just went neon. For Playskool, see the Cyber Slammers version.]]
*'''All Spark-Enhanced Bumblebee''' (Target Exclusive Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This Target exclusive features the Deluxe Class Bumblebee in unique cylindrical packaging, with the only difference from his standard release being that key robot mode parts are highlighted by the slavish 'All Spark Blue' color for no other reason than [[to sell toys]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Deluxe StealthBumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Bumblebee, as he appears in the Bizarro World.]]
*'''Stealth Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: Stealth Bumblebee is an extensive redeco and minor retool of the Deluxe class 2009 Camaro Bumblebee toy. The redeco itself is unusual in that the yellow parts are still cast in yellow plastic, but painted black. Other color differences include changing the robot mode body parts from black to gray and adding bright blue ''AllSpark Power'' decos.

:The head has also been retooled to reflect Bumblebee's 'battle mask' as seen in the Movie. The "mask" does not flip up to reveal his head. Bummer.

{{-}}
[[Image:MovieDeluxePremiumBumblebee.jpg|right|250px|thumb|You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' ("Premium Series" Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-22'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

:This [[redeco]] of the Deluxe-class Concept Camaro toy features a similar deco as the Screen Battles version in terms of plastic colours, but replaces the head sculpt with the "battle mask" sculpt previously used for Stealth Bumblebee. All of his outer car body panels have been coated in a metallic yellow paint job.

{{-}}
*'''Legacy of Bumblebee''' (Deluxe class multi-pack, 2008)

:A Walmart [[exclusive]] three pack, the ''Legacy of Bumblebee'' collector's set comes with [[Bumblebee (G1)|''Classics'']], Movie Deluxe Concept Camaro ([[Premium Series]]) and ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]]'' [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]] figures. While the ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' Bumblebees are identical to their original, single carded releases, the ''Classics'' Bumblebee has been redecoed to more closely resemble his ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' counterparts, changing his white stripes to black, and his grey/silver plastic to yellow, similarly to ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Bumble.

====Screen Battles====
[[Image:Movie ScreenBattles FinalStand1.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Half a bee, philosophically/ Must, ipso facto, half not be./ But half the bee has got to be/ Vis-a-vis, its entity. D'you see?"]]
*'''Final Stand''' (Screen Battles, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-02'''

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes with an altered [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] toy and a posable, non-transforming, battle-damaged Bumblebee figure very similar to the ''Robot Replicas'' toy, yet surprisingly utilizing none of the same parts despite being on an identical scale. This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the battle in Mission City.

:Although entirely comprised of original sculpting, such as the gimpy leg-stumps, the Bumblebee figure oddly does not feature the character's distinctive car door "wings" on his back. However, keen [[Kitbashing|customisers]] can easily rectify this by slicing the "Robot Replicas" version's wings off and whittling their connecting plastic into simple posts that very handily plug into large holes in the tires on Final Stand 'Bee's back. In fact, these holes almost seem designed to accommodate a missing part. (Considering how all the other Screen Battles sets were apparently originally intended to feature more, or at least more elaborate, accessory figures based on their entries in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this seems indeed very plausible.)

{{-}}
====Ultimate====
[[Image:Ultimate Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|All those extras and they couldn't make me more accurate than the deluxe class toy.]]
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee''' (Ultimate, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

: Similar in appearance to the second Deluxe-class Bumblebee toy, albeit much larger and more complex, the 'Ultimate' version of Bumblebee also transforms into the 2009 concept Camaro. The toy features animatronic movement in robot mode (flapping wings, moving arms and a rotating head) and light-up eyes and headlights, activated by the movement or sounds made by the person playing with the toy, or by pressing his buttons, which also activate an obscene number of interactive electronic sound effects. Oddly enough, despite being mute for most of the movie, Bumblebee has a wide range of phrases (Which don't even sound like him). His chest button yields various phrases and a new version of the ''Transformers'' theme tune, while a button on his side produces blaster noises, more speech, and musical samples, including four different ones from Devo's "Whip It." This button also causes the toy to raise its cannon-arm and automatically fire a missile. Playing with the toy by moving it will make him repeat various phrases and samples activated by other features, as well as crashing battle noises, but when he is left idle, more unique phrases will be uttered inquiring where everyone has gone, as well as radio snippets to the same effect, before the toy eventually deactivates. Pressing any button will bring him back online with a cheerful shout.

: Transforming the toy between modes is accompanied by the classic transformation noise, and if left unattended between modes, it will make stalling engine noises, car horn and a car alarm sounds. Once in car mode, new electronics are unlocked, beginning with the sound of an engine starting up. The chest button now activates the car's horn, and rolling the figure along will create an accelerating noise that increases the faster the toy is moved. More unique musical snippets will play as the car rolls along; when the rolling stops, brake lights activate and the tires screech. Yet more sounds are produced when Bumblebee is rolled backwards, and the car mode also features different crashing battle noises to the robot mode.

: All of the toy's features can be turned off by a switch, and it has an additional "Try Me" mode which allows you to hear various sounds from the toy's various functions just by pressing the chest button.

: The toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure made the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block resting on Bumblebee's chest. In reality, it splits up into five separate pieces to fold and collapse into a more movie-like appearance.

: In the holiday season, Wal-Mart carried an exclusive "Bonus Buy" version of the toy, which had the Deluxe [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] and [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] toys added as freebies. Costco also carried an exclusive version, with the 3" [[Titanium Series]] version of Bumblebee packed in. However, it did not include the display stand.

{{-}}
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee bonus pack''' (Costco exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

:A Costco-exclusive special pack of Ultimate Bumblebee with Titanium Series Bumblebee (see below) as a bonus figure. Neither toy is changed from its respective original release.

{{-}}
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee Bonus Value pack''' (Wal*Mart exclusive multi-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

:A Wal*Mart-exclusive special pack of Ultimate Bumblebee with Deluxe Class [[Brawl (Movie)|Decepticon Brawl]] and [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] as bonus figures. None of the three toys are changed from their respective original releases.

{{-}}
====Fast Action Battlers====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviefab.jpg|right|250px|thumb|]]
*'''Plasma Punch Bumblebee''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Projectile

:[[Fast Action Battler|Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a considerably simpler transformation than the standard deluxe toy, intended for the slightly younger set. His main "gimmick" is a spring-loaded missile launcher in his right arm. As is also the case with Ultimate Bumblebee, the toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure make the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block. In reality, the chest/bumper consists of two rotating pieces which can pivot down so as to more accurately emulate the appearance in the movie.

:A [[repaint]] of Plasma Punch Bumblebee. It transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a simple transformation. The right arm is a spring loaded missile launcher. As is also the case with the original [[Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee, the hood is presented as a solid brick.

====Cyber Slammers toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviecyberslammer.jpg|right|250px|thumb|A Battlecharger for the new millennium.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Classic Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

: Cyber Slammers Bumblebee is an amazingly cute 1976 Camaro that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot buddy of human characters. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along for a while, then snaps back up into robot mode.

: This toy was also made available during the 2007 holiday season as a freebie "Bonus Buy" packaged with Cyber Stompin' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] at Wal-Mart stores.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee CamaroConcept CyberSlammer.jpg|right|250px|thumb|And so, Bumblebee rejoins the Throttlebots.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Concept Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

:The second [[Cyber Slammers]] Bumblebee figure toy transforms into a Concept Camaro and shares no parts with the previous Cyber Slammers Bumblebee figure. Like all Cyber Slammers, the toy features motorized action. When you push down on the car, it zooms forward, then pops up into robot mode! Sure to please the toddler you brought with you to the PG-13 movie. Like most Cyber Slammers, Bumblebee manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

: This toy was later redecoed into [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

====Trans-Scanning====
[[Image:Movie TranScanning Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|whY mY SHoUlDeRs hUrT?(Now I know how Hot Shot feels)]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TS-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Display stand

: [[Trans-scan|Trans-scanning]] Bumblebee is a Japanese-exclusive figure with many interchangeable parts. At its most basic, the figure is a spindly skeleton referred to as a "Core Body". To this skeleton, two sets of armor pieces can be attached to create one of two forms for Bumblebee: his [[protoform]] mode or his Earth mode.

: The protoform mode consists of eight pieces of golden plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be manipulated in a manner that might charitably be called "transformation" into his meteor-like "entry mode," accomplished by doing little more than tucking the head out of sight and folding the chest back. This golden-and-grey lump can be mounted on a three-piece stand that comes with the figure, allowing you to display it in mid-plummet. Bumblebee's Earth mode, meanwhile, is made up of nineteen armor pieces (including a particularly large backpack) that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a Camaro Concept.

: Bumblebee also includes a pair of interchangeable, open-palmed hands that can be swapped out for the clenched fists that are in place in-package. The Core Body mold was re-used for the simultaneously released Trans-Scanning [[Optimus Prime (Movie) toys|Optimus Prime]] figure.

====Cyber Stompin' robots====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviecyberstompin.jpg|right|150px|thumb|These boots were made for—you know the rest.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Cyber Stompin' Robots, 2007)

: [[Cyber Stompin' Robots]] Bee is a large electronic action figure, featuring a rather cutified design. He's got electronic lights and sounds up the whazzoo and fires missiles and a fist. He totally plays the original theme song.

: Later in the year, Wal-Mart stores sold this toy as a "Bonus Buy" item, which came with a free Cyber Slammer [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] attached to the box back.

{{-}}
====Robot Replicas====
[[Image:Movie RobotReplica Bumblebee.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Heli-pack not included]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Robot Replicas, 2007)

: As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] sub-line, this version of concept-Camaro Bumblebee is a non-transforming action figure that hews very close to the movie's CGI model. It features joints similar to the [[Revoltech]] toys, plus his right forearm can be replaced with his blaster-arm (or any other arm attachments from other Robot Replicas, which could lead to some fun Frankensteins). For some reason, he's closer to orange than his normal yellow.

{{-}}

====Micro IR Transformers Cars====
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee MircroIR.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Drives and shoots!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2007)

: Made by [[RadioShack]] under license from [[Hasbro]] and [[Dreamworks]]. The three-function infrared remote, in Bumblebee's signature colors, gives you control of the car with forward and reverse turn movement. More than just a car styled after the Movie character, the car also transforms to robot mode. The top of the gun-shaped IR remote's barrel serves as a display stand. The tip of the gun barrel can also be unscrewed, revealing a pen (!) inside.

====Legends Class toys====
[[Image:ROTF Legends Bumblebee.jpg|right|250px|thumb|]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2009)
**''Japanese ID number:''

:''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends class Bumblebee is based upon the updated Camaro Concept featured in the movie (unlike the 2007 Legends class Bumblebee which was based on the 1976 Camaro).

====Legends Class toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemovielegends.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Its not a Fiesta with racing stripes...its a fiesta of racing stripes!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Legends Class, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Bumblebee'''

: Legends Bumblebee transforms into a yellow 1976 Chevrolet Camaro. Being a highly simplified toy of a highly complex design, Legends-class Bumblebee does not replicate the appearance of the robot mode very well, and has very limited articulation, detail and paint application. On the other hand, he's pocket-sized and inexpensive, perfect for the younger set. The toy has a sculpted rear window, but it's not painted like the other windows. instead, the racing stripes extend over them.

{{-}}
====Deluxe Class toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemovietoydeluxe67.jpg|right|250px|thumb|These used cars are fully loaded!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Classic Camaro, 2007)
**''ID number:'' '''MA-03'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: The first Deluxe Class version of Movie Bumblebee transforms into a yellow [[wikipedia:Second-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|1976 Chevrolet Camaro]] with a quite reasonable level of sculpted detail. In contrast to the other Deluxe-class car Transformers in the Movie toyline, he does not have clear windows, instead opting for opaque yellow plastic with painted metallic blue.

: Bumblebee is armed with two shoulder-mounted spring-loaded missile launchers (inspired by the shoulder-mounted missile launchers he uses to fight Brawl/Devastator in the movie), which also double as hand-held weapons or can be mounted on ports on the undersides of his elbows. His legs and chest [[Automorph]] during transformation.

: The initial release of the toy featured even tabs for the Automorph gimmick; oddly, Hasbro later decided to [[retool]] the feature so the tab would be uneven.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=29613 Original Allspark thread about the retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref> This resulted in many reported cases of the tab snapping during transformation. Press the button or you'll break him. Seriously. The retooled Automorph gimmick would be used for all subsequent versions of the mold, including the Japanese ones, and the breakage problem wouldn't be fixed until the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack and the Target exclusive "Evolution of a Hero" two-pack.

[[Image:Movie Deluxe 1974 Bumblebee JPtoy.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Never seen so much translucent plastic in all my life.]]
: Packaging photos and early [[Prototype|test shots]] of Hasbro's Bumblebee featured transparent blue plastic windows and missile parts. However, the final Hasbro production toy has opaque yellow plastic. The Japanese [[TakaraTomy]] release of Bumblebee retains the transparent blue plastic parts, with yellow paint for the outer car shell. As a consequence, the missiles, which are on the same sprue, are also made of clear blue plastic, just like the early prototype seen in the Hasbro stock photos for the toy. He also uses the retooled version of the mold with the fixed [[Automorph]] gimmick.

The packaging used for the Japanese toy is the same as for the Hasbro version, with the exception of additional stickers identifying it as a Japanese market release.
{{-}}
[[Image:Bumblebee Barricade deluxeboxset.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Go ahead, make my day!"]]
*'''Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This battle pack contains the 1976 Camaro deluxe-class Bumblebee and the deluxe-class [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]/[[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] figures, based upon their confrontation as seen in the movie. The box features a diorama-style background from a movie scene, but toys themselves are unchanged from their original carded releases.

: The set originally retailed for only slightly less than buying the two individual toys. However, for a short while, it was about the only way to ''get'' Bumblebee in the first place, thanks to the [[Movie (toyline)|toy drought]] following the movie's record-smashing opening.

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee Limited Metallic Color Version''' (Lawson exclusive Deluxe-sized Classic Camaro, TakaraTomy 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: A redeco of the Japanese version of the Classic Camaro Bumblebee mold (retaining the clear blue windows and missiles) that was exclusively available with the purchase of a ticket for the movie in Japanese Lawson stores.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie TowedtoSafety toys.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Sadly, All Spark Insurance doesn't cover towing charges.]]
*'''Towed to Safety''' (two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This set features an unaltered Deluxe class [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] figure and a Deluxe class 1976 Camaro Bumblebee figure. The window box features a diorama background of the battle in [[Mission City]] (basically the same packaging inner tray from the "Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter" pack). As is generally the case with the European releases of the Movie toys, the pictures on the front of the box show the robot-mode toys instead of an artist's depiction of their faces.

: For this two-pack, Hasbro slightly retooled Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick again, adding another small tab that finally resolved the breakage issues that had plagued the previous variation of the mold.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=38149 Allspark thread about the second retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref>

:Thus far, this pack has only been released in the United Kingdom.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Deluxe 2009 Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Nu-uh! You don't want none of this!]]
*'''Bumblebee (Camaro Concept)''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-10'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: The second Deluxe class Bumblebee toy, which shares no parts with the previous one (even the head, despite being based on the same general design, is a different sculpt), transforms into the [[wikipedia:Fifth-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|concept vehicle for the 2009 Chevrolet Camaro]]. Maintaining the high standard for car accuracy in the movie line, Bumblebee is very faithful to the real-life vehicle, featuring clear blue windows in contrast to the opaque windows seen in both his previous Deluxe class toy and the Ultimate Bumblebee toy.

: Bumblebee features two [[Automorph|Automorphing]] gimmicks during transformation: ''(a)'' swinging his hood down into robot mode position also moves his arms up and ''(b)'', swinging his feet down will move the rear fenders up and behind his calves, as well as swinging the rear windows to his inner calves in a spring-loaded action. Unusually, this version of Bumblebee is much more accurate to the CGI design than either the older-model Deluxe OR the Ultimate figure, with the chest properly articulating in a fairly Movie-accurate manner. He's also slightly taller than most of the other Deluxe Class figures.

: Bumblebee features a superb range of articulation, with ball joints in his shoulders, neck, torso, wrists and upper legs, with ratcheting and swivels making up the remaining joints. Instead of the rather inaccurate missile launchers from the 1976 Camaro toy, '09 Bumblebee comes with a mostly accurate version of his plasma cannon as it appears in the movie, but for added play value, it can Automorph into an energy blade by opening up the halves of the gun barrel and swinging them back. The cannon can be held in either of his hands.

: Care should be taken when removing the cannon from Bumblebee's hands, as excessive force can damage the wrist ball joint socket.

: Contrary to popular opinion, the yellow pieces on the back of Bumblebee's feet are ''not'' supposed to be heel spurs, nor have they been mis-assembled. They are supposed to fold up to emulate the detail found on the CGI design.

: A running change version of this mold adds tabs to the hip panels, which makes the vehicle mode hold together better, as well as sculpted pupils inside Bumblebee's eyes.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=144325 TFW2005 thread about the retool for the second Deluxe Bumblebee toy]</ref> Initially this was believed to be a variant for the Japanese market; however, later shipments of the Hasbro toy featured those changes as well, as did all subsequent versions of the mold.

: This mold was also used to make "Allspark Power" [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee Evolutionofahero.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Hey, look, Concept Camaro, now you are the piece o' crap.]]
*'''Evolution of a Hero''' (Target exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles, Plasma cannon

: A Target exclusive, this figure multi-pack contains an unchanged Deluxe-class 1976 Bumblebee and an exclusive "battle damaged" 2009 Camaro Concept Bumblebee. Even though the 2009 figure is supposed to represent Bumblebee's damaged state as he appeared during the final battle in the movie, oddly enough the "damage" paint decos do not appear to extend to his legs, restricting themselves to his upper torso and car roof/door parts. Maybe they didn't bother because they thought you'd take them off like in the movie. Go figure.

:The Classic Camaro Bumblebee toy included in this package features the same "fixed" Automorph gimmick also found on the version included in the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack. In addition, the Automorph button on the hood ''finally'' sports the painted pinstripes that had been missing on ''all'' previous releases of the mold.

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee and Optimus Prime''' (Argos exclusive two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: A two-pack, exclusively available at Argos stores in the United Kingdom, which contains an unchanged Voyager-class [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and an equally unchanged Deluxe-class Concept Camaro Bumblebee.

*'''Capture of Bumblebee''' (Screen Battles diorama pack, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-04'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes a [[Redeco|redecoed]] Camaro Concept Deluxe-class Bumblebee featuring a more accurate gray color scheme for his robot mode parts and a silver-painted face, Autobot symbol and toes. Additionally, a new red Autobot symbol is placed on his forehead, while his translucent parts are now a greener blue. The pack also comes with non-posable figurines of [[Sector Seven]] agent [[Reggie Simmons]] and two Sector Seven soldiers; one carrying a cryo-freezing cannon and one carrying a grenade launcher.

: This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the scene in which Bumblebee is captured by Sector Seven forces.

:According to details listed in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this pack was originally supposed to feature "ice soldiers" (plural), in addition to an "S7 agent" and an "S7 soldier". Apparently budget ultimately only allowed for one. The grenade launcher-wielding S7 soldier also looks conspicuously like [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]] colored as a Sector Seven soldier (it's possible that the figure had originally been intended for the Screen Battles "Desert Attack" pack with [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]]).

*'''All Spark-Enhanced Bumblebee''' (Target Exclusive Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This Target exclusive features the Deluxe Class Bumblebee in unique cylindrical packaging, with the only difference from his standard release being that key robot mode parts are highlighted by the slavish 'All Spark Blue' color for no other reason than [[to sell toys]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Deluxe StealthBumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Bumblebee, as he appears in the Bizarro World.]]
*'''Stealth Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: Stealth Bumblebee is an extensive redeco and minor retool of the Deluxe class 2009 Camaro Bumblebee toy. The redeco itself is unusual in that the yellow parts are still cast in yellow plastic, but painted black. Other color differences include changing the robot mode body parts from black to gray and adding bright blue ''AllSpark Power'' decos.

:The head has also been retooled to reflect Bumblebee's 'battle mask' as seen in the Movie. The "mask" does not flip up to reveal his head. Bummer.

{{-}}
[[Image:MovieDeluxePremiumBumblebee.jpg|right|250px|thumb|You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' ("Premium Series" Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-22'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

:This [[redeco]] of the Deluxe-class Concept Camaro toy features a similar deco as the Screen Battles version in terms of plastic colours, but replaces the head sculpt with the "battle mask" sculpt previously used for Stealth Bumblebee. All of his outer car body panels have been coated in a metallic yellow paint job.

{{-}}
*'''Legacy of Bumblebee''' (Deluxe class multi-pack, 2008)

:A Walmart [[exclusive]] three pack, the ''Legacy of Bumblebee'' collector's set comes with [[Bumblebee (G1)|''Classics'']], Movie Deluxe Concept Camaro ([[Premium Series]]) and ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]]'' [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]] figures. While the ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' Bumblebees are identical to their original, single carded releases, the ''Classics'' Bumblebee has been redecoed to more closely resemble his ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' counterparts, changing his white stripes to black, and his grey/silver plastic to yellow, similarly to ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Bumble.

====Screen Battles====
[[Image:Movie ScreenBattles FinalStand1.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Half a bee, philosophically/ Must, ipso facto, half not be./ But half the bee has got to be/ Vis-a-vis, its entity. D'you see?"]]
*'''Final Stand''' (Screen Battles, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-02'''

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes with an altered [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] toy and a posable, non-transforming, battle-damaged Bumblebee figure very similar to the ''Robot Replicas'' toy, yet surprisingly utilizing none of the same parts despite being on an identical scale. This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the battle in Mission City.

:Although entirely comprised of original sculpting, such as the gimpy leg-stumps, the Bumblebee figure oddly does not feature the character's distinctive car door "wings" on his back. However, keen [[Kitbashing|customisers]] can easily rectify this by slicing the "Robot Replicas" version's wings off and whittling their connecting plastic into simple posts that very handily plug into large holes in the tires on Final Stand 'Bee's back. In fact, these holes almost seem designed to accommodate a missing part. (Considering how all the other Screen Battles sets were apparently originally intended to feature more, or at least more elaborate, accessory figures based on their entries in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this seems indeed very plausible.)

{{-}}
====Ultimate====
[[Image:Ultimate Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|All those extras and they couldn't make me more accurate than the deluxe class toy.]]
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee''' (Ultimate, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

: Similar in appearance to the second Deluxe-class Bumblebee toy, albeit much larger and more complex, the 'Ultimate' version of Bumblebee also transforms into the 2009 concept Camaro. The toy features animatronic movement in robot mode (flapping wings, moving arms and a rotating head) and light-up eyes and headlights, activated by the movement or sounds made by the person playing with the toy, or by pressing his buttons, which also activate an obscene number of interactive electronic sound effects. Oddly enough, despite being mute for most of the movie, Bumblebee has a wide range of phrases (Which don't even sound like him). His chest button yields various phrases and a new version of the ''Transformers'' theme tune, while a button on his side produces blaster noises, more speech, and musical samples, including four different ones from Devo's "Whip It." This button also causes the toy to raise its cannon-arm and automatically fire a missile. Playing with the toy by moving it will make him repeat various phrases and samples activated by other features, as well as crashing battle noises, but when he is left idle, more unique phrases will be uttered inquiring where everyone has gone, as well as radio snippets to the same effect, before the toy eventually deactivates. Pressing any button will bring him back online with a cheerful shout.

: Transforming the toy between modes is accompanied by the classic transformation noise, and if left unattended between modes, it will make stalling engine noises, car horn and a car alarm sounds. Once in car mode, new electronics are unlocked, beginning with the sound of an engine starting up. The chest button now activates the car's horn, and rolling the figure along will create an accelerating noise that increases the faster the toy is moved. More unique musical snippets will play as the car rolls along; when the rolling stops, brake lights activate and the tires screech. Yet more sounds are produced when Bumblebee is rolled backwards, and the car mode also features different crashing battle noises to the robot mode.

: All of the toy's features can be turned off by a switch, and it has an additional "Try Me" mode which allows you to hear various sounds from the toy's various functions just by pressing the chest button.

: The toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure made the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block resting on Bumblebee's chest. In reality, it splits up into five separate pieces to fold and collapse into a more movie-like appearance.

: In the holiday season, Wal-Mart carried an exclusive "Bonus Buy" version of the toy, which had the Deluxe [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] and [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] toys added as freebies. Costco also carried an exclusive version, with the 3" [[Titanium Series]] version of Bumblebee packed in. However, it did not include the display stand.

{{-}}
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee bonus pack''' (Costco exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

:A Costco-exclusive special pack of Ultimate Bumblebee with Titanium Series Bumblebee (see below) as a bonus figure. Neither toy is changed from its respective original release.

*'''Ultimate Bumblebee Bonus Value pack''' (Wal*Mart exclusive multi-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

:A Wal*Mart-exclusive special pack of Ultimate Bumblebee with Deluxe Class [[Brawl (Movie)|Decepticon Brawl]] and [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] as bonus figures. None of the three toys are changed from their respective original releases.

====Fast Action Battlers====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviefab.jpg|right|250px|thumb|]]
*'''Plasma Punch Bumblebee''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Projectile

:[[Fast Action Battler|Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a considerably simpler transformation than the standard deluxe toy, intended for the slightly younger set. His main "gimmick" is a spring-loaded missile launcher in his right arm. As is also the case with Ultimate Bumblebee, the toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure make the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block. In reality, the chest/bumper consists of two rotating pieces which can pivot down so as to more accurately emulate the appearance in the movie.

{{-}}
[[Image:FAB Rally Rocket BB.jpg|right|250px|thumb|A rally car that isn't Smokescreen. Now that's something new.]]
*'''Rally Rocket Bumblebee''' (Fast Action Battler, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Projectile

:A [[repaint]] of Plasma Punch Bumblebee. It transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a simple transformation. The right arm is a spring loaded missile launcher. As is also the case with the original [[Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee, the hood is presented as a solid brick.

{{-}}
====Cyber Slammers toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviecyberslammer.jpg|right|250px|thumb|A Battlecharger for the new millennium.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Classic Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

: Cyber Slammers Bumblebee is an amazingly cute 1976 Camaro that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot buddy of human characters. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along for a while, then snaps back up into robot mode.

: This toy was also made available during the 2007 holiday season as a freebie "Bonus Buy" packaged with Cyber Stompin' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] at Wal-Mart stores.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee CamaroConcept CyberSlammer.jpg|right|250px|thumb|And so, Bumblebee rejoins the Throttlebots.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Concept Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

:The second [[Cyber Slammers]] Bumblebee figure toy transforms into a Concept Camaro and shares no parts with the previous Cyber Slammers Bumblebee figure. Like all Cyber Slammers, the toy features motorized action. When you push down on the car, it zooms forward, then pops up into robot mode! Sure to please the toddler you brought with you to the PG-13 movie. Like most Cyber Slammers, Bumblebee manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

: This toy was later redecoed into [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

{{-}}
====Trans-Scanning====
[[Image:Movie TranScanning Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|whY mY SHoUlDeRs hUrT?(Now I know how Hot Shot feels)]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TS-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Display stand

: [[Trans-scan|Trans-scanning]] Bumblebee is a Japanese-exclusive figure with many interchangeable parts. At its most basic, the figure is a spindly skeleton referred to as a "Core Body". To this skeleton, two sets of armor pieces can be attached to create one of two forms for Bumblebee: his [[protoform]] mode or his Earth mode.

: The protoform mode consists of eight pieces of golden plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be manipulated in a manner that might charitably be called "transformation" into his meteor-like "entry mode," accomplished by doing little more than tucking the head out of sight and folding the chest back. This golden-and-grey lump can be mounted on a three-piece stand that comes with the figure, allowing you to display it in mid-plummet. Bumblebee's Earth mode, meanwhile, is made up of nineteen armor pieces (including a particularly large backpack) that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a Camaro Concept.

: Bumblebee also includes a pair of interchangeable, open-palmed hands that can be swapped out for the clenched fists that are in place in-package. The Core Body mold was re-used for the simultaneously released Trans-Scanning [[Optimus Prime (Movie) toys|Optimus Prime]] figure.

{{-}}
====Cyber Stompin' robots====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviecyberstompin.jpg|right|150px|thumb|These boots were made for—you know the rest.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Cyber Stompin' Robots, 2007)

: [[Cyber Stompin' Robots]] Bee is a large electronic action figure, featuring a rather cutified design. He's got electronic lights and sounds up the whazzoo and fires missiles and a fist. He totally plays the original theme song.

: Later in the year, Wal-Mart stores sold this toy as a "Bonus Buy" item, which came with a free Cyber Slammer [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] attached to the box back.

{{-}}
====Robot Replicas====
[[Image:Movie RobotReplica Bumblebee.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Heli-pack not included]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Robot Replicas, 2007)

: As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] sub-line, this version of concept-Camaro Bumblebee is a non-transforming action figure that hews very close to the movie's CGI model. It features joints similar to the [[Revoltech]] toys, plus his right forearm can be replaced with his blaster-arm (or any other arm attachments from other Robot Replicas, which could lead to some fun Frankensteins). For some reason, he's closer to orange than his normal yellow.

{{-}}

====Micro IR Transformers Cars====
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee MircroIR.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Drives and shoots!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2007)

: Made by [[RadioShack]] under license from [[Hasbro]] and [[Dreamworks]]. The three-function infrared remote, in Bumblebee's signature colors, gives you control of the car with forward and reverse turn movement. More than just a car styled after the Movie character, the car also transforms to robot mode. The top of the gun-shaped IR remote's barrel serves as a display stand. The tip of the gun barrel can also be unscrewed, revealing a pen (!) inside.

{{-}}
===Titanium Series===
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviets3.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Special feature: Can't talk, just like the real Bumblebee!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Robot Masters, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Movie-style Autobot sigil isplay stand

: This Bumblebee is a three-inch tall painted mini-statue of his 1976 Camaro body form. He features die-cast in his torso and thighs, and he has swivel joints at the shoulders, head and waist. Oh, and he comes with a Movie-style Autobot logo base to stand on.

: This item was also packed in with Ultimate Bumblebee as a Costco-exclusive set.

{{-}}
===Revenge of the Fallen===
====Legends Class toys====
[[Image:ROTF Legends Bumblebee.jpg|right|250px|thumb|]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2009)
**''Japanese ID number:''

:''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends class Bumblebee is based upon the updated Camaro Concept featured in the movie (unlike the 2007 Legends class Bumblebee which was based on the 1976 Camaro). Compared to the previous Movie Legends, he has better, more accurate detailing and proportions (or as accurate as can be obtained at this [[pricepoint]]).

**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Bumblebee'''

: Legends Bumblebee transforms into a yellow 1976 Chevrolet Camaro. Being a highly simplified toy of a highly complex design, Legends-class Bumblebee does not replicate the appearance of the robot mode very well, and has very limited articulation, detail and paint application. On the other hand, he's pocket-sized and inexpensive, perfect for the younger set. The toy has a sculpted rear window, but it's not painted like the other windows. instead, the racing stripes extend over them.

====Deluxe Class toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemovietoydeluxe67.jpg|right|250px|thumb|These used cars are fully loaded!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Classic Camaro, 2007)
**''ID number:'' '''MA-03'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: The first Deluxe Class version of Movie Bumblebee transforms into a yellow [[wikipedia:Second-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|1976 Chevrolet Camaro]] with a quite reasonable level of sculpted detail. In contrast to the other Deluxe-class car Transformers in the Movie toyline, he does not have clear windows, instead opting for opaque yellow plastic with painted metallic blue.

: Bumblebee is armed with two shoulder-mounted spring-loaded missile launchers (inspired by the shoulder-mounted missile launchers he uses to fight Brawl/Devastator in the movie), which also double as hand-held weapons or can be mounted on ports on the undersides of his elbows. His legs and chest [[Automorph]] during transformation.

: The initial release of the toy featured even tabs for the Automorph gimmick; oddly, Hasbro later decided to [[retool]] the feature so the tab would be uneven.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=29613 Original Allspark thread about the retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref> This resulted in many reported cases of the tab snapping during transformation. Press the button or you'll break him. Seriously. The retooled Automorph gimmick would be used for all subsequent versions of the mold, including the Japanese ones, and the breakage problem wouldn't be fixed until the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack and the Target exclusive "Evolution of a Hero" two-pack.

[[Image:Movie Deluxe 1974 Bumblebee JPtoy.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Never seen so much translucent plastic in all my life.]]
: Packaging photos and early [[Prototype|test shots]] of Hasbro's Bumblebee featured transparent blue plastic windows and missile parts. However, the final Hasbro production toy has opaque yellow plastic. The Japanese [[TakaraTomy]] release of Bumblebee retains the transparent blue plastic parts, with yellow paint for the outer car shell. As a consequence, the missiles, which are on the same sprue, are also made of clear blue plastic, just like the early prototype seen in the Hasbro stock photos for the toy. He also uses the retooled version of the mold with the fixed [[Automorph]] gimmick.

The packaging used for the Japanese toy is the same as for the Hasbro version, with the exception of additional stickers identifying it as a Japanese market release.

[[Image:Bumblebee Barricade deluxeboxset.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Go ahead, make my day!"]]
*'''Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This battle pack contains the 1976 Camaro deluxe-class Bumblebee and the deluxe-class [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]/[[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] figures, based upon their confrontation as seen in the movie. The box features a diorama-style background from a movie scene, but toys themselves are unchanged from their original carded releases.

: The set originally retailed for only slightly less than buying the two individual toys. However, for a short while, it was about the only way to ''get'' Bumblebee in the first place, thanks to the [[Movie (toyline)|toy drought]] following the movie's record-smashing opening.

*'''Bumblebee Limited Metallic Color Version''' (Lawson exclusive Deluxe-sized Classic Camaro, TakaraTomy 2007)

*'''Towed to Safety''' (two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This set features an unaltered Deluxe class [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] figure and a Deluxe class 1976 Camaro Bumblebee figure. The window box features a diorama background of the battle in [[Mission City]] (basically the same packaging inner tray from the "Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter" pack). As is generally the case with the European releases of the Movie toys, the pictures on the front of the box show the robot-mode toys instead of an artist's depiction of their faces.

: For this two-pack, Hasbro slightly retooled Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick again, adding another small tab that finally resolved the breakage issues that had plagued the previous variation of the mold.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=38149 Allspark thread about the second retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref>

:Thus far, this pack has only been released in the United Kingdom.

*'''Bumblebee (Camaro Concept)''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-10'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: The second Deluxe class Bumblebee toy, which shares no parts with the previous one (even the head, despite being based on the same general design, is a different sculpt), transforms into the [[wikipedia:Fifth-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|concept vehicle for the 2009 Chevrolet Camaro]]. Maintaining the high standard for car accuracy in the movie line, Bumblebee is very faithful to the real-life vehicle, featuring clear blue windows in contrast to the opaque windows seen in both his previous Deluxe class toy and the Ultimate Bumblebee toy.

: Bumblebee features two [[Automorph|Automorphing]] gimmicks during transformation: ''(a)'' swinging his hood down into robot mode position also moves his arms up and ''(b)'', swinging his feet down will move the rear fenders up and behind his calves, as well as swinging the rear windows to his inner calves in a spring-loaded action. Unusually, this version of Bumblebee is much more accurate to the CGI design than either the older-model Deluxe OR the Ultimate figure, with the chest properly articulating in a fairly Movie-accurate manner. He's also slightly taller than most of the other Deluxe Class figures.

: Bumblebee features a superb range of articulation, with ball joints in his shoulders, neck, torso, wrists and upper legs, with ratcheting and swivels making up the remaining joints. Instead of the rather inaccurate missile launchers from the 1976 Camaro toy, '09 Bumblebee comes with a mostly accurate version of his plasma cannon as it appears in the movie, but for added play value, it can Automorph into an energy blade by opening up the halves of the gun barrel and swinging them back. The cannon can be held in either of his hands.

: Care should be taken when removing the cannon from Bumblebee's hands, as excessive force can damage the wrist ball joint socket.

: Contrary to popular opinion, the yellow pieces on the back of Bumblebee's feet are ''not'' supposed to be heel spurs, nor have they been mis-assembled. They are supposed to fold up to emulate the detail found on the CGI design.

: A running change version of this mold adds tabs to the hip panels, which makes the vehicle mode hold together better, as well as sculpted pupils inside Bumblebee's eyes.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=144325 TFW2005 thread about the retool for the second Deluxe Bumblebee toy]</ref> Initially this was believed to be a variant for the Japanese market; however, later shipments of the Hasbro toy featured those changes as well, as did all subsequent versions of the mold.

: This mold was also used to make "Allspark Power" [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

*'''Evolution of a Hero''' (Target exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles, Plasma cannon

: A Target exclusive, this figure multi-pack contains an unchanged Deluxe-class 1976 Bumblebee and an exclusive "battle damaged" 2009 Camaro Concept Bumblebee. Even though the 2009 figure is supposed to represent Bumblebee's damaged state as he appeared during the final battle in the movie, oddly enough the "damage" paint decos do not appear to extend to his legs, restricting themselves to his upper torso and car roof/door parts. Maybe they didn't bother because they thought you'd take them off like in the movie. Go figure.

:The Classic Camaro Bumblebee toy included in this package features the same "fixed" Automorph gimmick also found on the version included in the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack. In addition, the Automorph button on the hood ''finally'' sports the painted pinstripes that had been missing on ''all'' previous releases of the mold.

*'''Bumblebee and Optimus Prime''' (Argos exclusive two-pack, UK 2007)

: A two-pack, exclusively available at Argos stores in the United Kingdom, which contains an unchanged Voyager-class [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and an equally unchanged Deluxe-class Concept Camaro Bumblebee.

*'''Capture of Bumblebee''' (Screen Battles diorama pack, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-04'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes a [[Redeco|redecoed]] Camaro Concept Deluxe-class Bumblebee featuring a more accurate gray color scheme for his robot mode parts and a silver-painted face, Autobot symbol and toes. Additionally, a new red Autobot symbol is placed on his forehead, while his translucent parts are now a greener blue. The pack also comes with non-posable figurines of [[Sector Seven]] agent [[Reggie Simmons]] and two Sector Seven soldiers; one carrying a cryo-freezing cannon and one carrying a grenade launcher.

: This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the scene in which Bumblebee is captured by Sector Seven forces.

:According to details listed in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this pack was originally supposed to feature "ice soldiers" (plural), in addition to an "S7 agent" and an "S7 soldier". Apparently budget ultimately only allowed for one. The grenade launcher-wielding S7 soldier also looks conspicuously like [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]] colored as a Sector Seven soldier (it's possible that the figure had originally been intended for the Screen Battles "Desert Attack" pack with [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]]).

*'''All Spark-Enhanced Bumblebee''' (Target Exclusive Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This Target exclusive features the Deluxe Class Bumblebee in unique cylindrical packaging, with the only difference from his standard release being that key robot mode parts are highlighted by the slavish 'All Spark Blue' color for no other reason than [[to sell toys]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Deluxe StealthBumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Bumblebee, as he appears in the Bizarro World.]]
*'''Stealth Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: Stealth Bumblebee is an extensive redeco and minor retool of the Deluxe class 2009 Camaro Bumblebee toy. The redeco itself is unusual in that the yellow parts are still cast in yellow plastic, but painted black. Other color differences include changing the robot mode body parts from black to gray and adding bright blue ''AllSpark Power'' decos.

:The head has also been retooled to reflect Bumblebee's 'battle mask' as seen in the Movie. The "mask" does not flip up to reveal his head. Bummer.

*'''Bumblebee''' ("Premium Series" Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-22'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

:This [[redeco]] of the Deluxe-class Concept Camaro toy features a similar deco as the Screen Battles version in terms of plastic colours, but replaces the head sculpt with the "battle mask" sculpt previously used for Stealth Bumblebee. All of his outer car body panels have been coated in a metallic yellow paint job.

{{-}}
*'''Legacy of Bumblebee''' (Deluxe class multi-pack, 2008)

:A Walmart [[exclusive]] three pack, the ''Legacy of Bumblebee'' collector's set comes with [[Bumblebee (G1)|''Classics'']], Movie Deluxe Concept Camaro ([[Premium Series]]) and ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]]'' [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]] figures. While the ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' Bumblebees are identical to their original, single carded releases, the ''Classics'' Bumblebee has been redecoed to more closely resemble his ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' counterparts, changing his white stripes to black, and his grey/silver plastic to yellow, similarly to ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Bumble.

====Screen Battles====
[[Image:Movie ScreenBattles FinalStand1.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Half a bee, philosophically/ Must, ipso facto, half not be./ But half the bee has got to be/ Vis-a-vis, its entity. D'you see?"]]
*'''Final Stand''' (Screen Battles, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-02'''

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes with an altered [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] toy and a posable, non-transforming, battle-damaged Bumblebee figure very similar to the ''Robot Replicas'' toy, yet surprisingly utilizing none of the same parts despite being on an identical scale. This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the battle in Mission City.

:Although entirely comprised of original sculpting, such as the gimpy leg-stumps, the Bumblebee figure oddly does not feature the character's distinctive car door "wings" on his back. However, keen [[Kitbashing|customisers]] can easily rectify this by slicing the "Robot Replicas" version's wings off and whittling their connecting plastic into simple posts that very handily plug into large holes in the tires on Final Stand 'Bee's back. In fact, these holes almost seem designed to accommodate a missing part. (Considering how all the other Screen Battles sets were apparently originally intended to feature more, or at least more elaborate, accessory figures based on their entries in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this seems indeed very plausible.)

{{-}}
====Ultimate====
[[Image:Ultimate Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|All those extras and they couldn't make me more accurate than the deluxe class toy.]]
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee''' (Ultimate, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

: Similar in appearance to the second Deluxe-class Bumblebee toy, albeit much larger and more complex, the 'Ultimate' version of Bumblebee also transforms into the 2009 concept Camaro. The toy features animatronic movement in robot mode (flapping wings, moving arms and a rotating head) and light-up eyes and headlights, activated by the movement or sounds made by the person playing with the toy, or by pressing his buttons, which also activate an obscene number of interactive electronic sound effects. Oddly enough, despite being mute for most of the movie, Bumblebee has a wide range of phrases (Which don't even sound like him). His chest button yields various phrases and a new version of the ''Transformers'' theme tune, while a button on his side produces blaster noises, more speech, and musical samples, including four different ones from Devo's "Whip It." This button also causes the toy to raise its cannon-arm and automatically fire a missile. Playing with the toy by moving it will make him repeat various phrases and samples activated by other features, as well as crashing battle noises, but when he is left idle, more unique phrases will be uttered inquiring where everyone has gone, as well as radio snippets to the same effect, before the toy eventually deactivates. Pressing any button will bring him back online with a cheerful shout.

: Transforming the toy between modes is accompanied by the classic transformation noise, and if left unattended between modes, it will make stalling engine noises, car horn and a car alarm sounds. Once in car mode, new electronics are unlocked, beginning with the sound of an engine starting up. The chest button now activates the car's horn, and rolling the figure along will create an accelerating noise that increases the faster the toy is moved. More unique musical snippets will play as the car rolls along; when the rolling stops, brake lights activate and the tires screech. Yet more sounds are produced when Bumblebee is rolled backwards, and the car mode also features different crashing battle noises to the robot mode.

: All of the toy's features can be turned off by a switch, and it has an additional "Try Me" mode which allows you to hear various sounds from the toy's various functions just by pressing the chest button.

: The toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure made the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block resting on Bumblebee's chest. In reality, it splits up into five separate pieces to fold and collapse into a more movie-like appearance.

: In the holiday season, Wal-Mart carried an exclusive "Bonus Buy" version of the toy, which had the Deluxe [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] and [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] toys added as freebies. Costco also carried an exclusive version, with the 3" [[Titanium Series]] version of Bumblebee packed in. However, it did not include the display stand.

*'''Ultimate Bumblebee bonus pack''' (Costco exclusive two-pack, 2007)

====Fast Action Battlers====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviefab.jpg|right|250px|thumb|]]
*'''Plasma Punch Bumblebee''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Projectile

:[[Fast Action Battler|Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a considerably simpler transformation than the standard deluxe toy, intended for the slightly younger set. His main "gimmick" is a spring-loaded missile launcher in his right arm. As is also the case with Ultimate Bumblebee, the toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure make the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block. In reality, the chest/bumper consists of two rotating pieces which can pivot down so as to more accurately emulate the appearance in the movie.

:A [[repaint]] of Plasma Punch Bumblebee. It transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a simple transformation. The right arm is a spring loaded missile launcher. As is also the case with the original [[Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee, the hood is presented as a solid brick.

====Cyber Slammers toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviecyberslammer.jpg|right|250px|thumb|A Battlecharger for the new millennium.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Classic Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

: Cyber Slammers Bumblebee is an amazingly cute 1976 Camaro that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot buddy of human characters. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along for a while, then snaps back up into robot mode.

: This toy was also made available during the 2007 holiday season as a freebie "Bonus Buy" packaged with Cyber Stompin' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] at Wal-Mart stores.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee CamaroConcept CyberSlammer.jpg|right|250px|thumb|And so, Bumblebee rejoins the Throttlebots.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Concept Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

:The second [[Cyber Slammers]] Bumblebee figure toy transforms into a Concept Camaro and shares no parts with the previous Cyber Slammers Bumblebee figure. Like all Cyber Slammers, the toy features motorized action. When you push down on the car, it zooms forward, then pops up into robot mode! Sure to please the toddler you brought with you to the PG-13 movie. Like most Cyber Slammers, Bumblebee manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

: This toy was later redecoed into [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

{{-}}
====Trans-Scanning====
[[Image:Movie TranScanning Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|whY mY SHoUlDeRs hUrT?(Now I know how Hot Shot feels)]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TS-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Display stand

: [[Trans-scan|Trans-scanning]] Bumblebee is a Japanese-exclusive figure with many interchangeable parts. At its most basic, the figure is a spindly skeleton referred to as a "Core Body". To this skeleton, two sets of armor pieces can be attached to create one of two forms for Bumblebee: his [[protoform]] mode or his Earth mode.

: The protoform mode consists of eight pieces of golden plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be manipulated in a manner that might charitably be called "transformation" into his meteor-like "entry mode," accomplished by doing little more than tucking the head out of sight and folding the chest back. This golden-and-grey lump can be mounted on a three-piece stand that comes with the figure, allowing you to display it in mid-plummet. Bumblebee's Earth mode, meanwhile, is made up of nineteen armor pieces (including a particularly large backpack) that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a Camaro Concept.

: Bumblebee also includes a pair of interchangeable, open-palmed hands that can be swapped out for the clenched fists that are in place in-package. The Core Body mold was re-used for the simultaneously released Trans-Scanning [[Optimus Prime (Movie) toys|Optimus Prime]] figure.

====Cyber Stompin' robots====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviecyberstompin.jpg|right|150px|thumb|These boots were made for—you know the rest.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Cyber Stompin' Robots, 2007)

: [[Cyber Stompin' Robots]] Bee is a large electronic action figure, featuring a rather cutified design. He's got electronic lights and sounds up the whazzoo and fires missiles and a fist. He totally plays the original theme song.

: Later in the year, Wal-Mart stores sold this toy as a "Bonus Buy" item, which came with a free Cyber Slammer [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] attached to the box back.

{{-}}
====Robot Replicas====
[[Image:Movie RobotReplica Bumblebee.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Heli-pack not included]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Robot Replicas, 2007)

: As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] sub-line, this version of concept-Camaro Bumblebee is a non-transforming action figure that hews very close to the movie's CGI model. It features joints similar to the [[Revoltech]] toys, plus his right forearm can be replaced with his blaster-arm (or any other arm attachments from other Robot Replicas, which could lead to some fun Frankensteins). For some reason, he's closer to orange than his normal yellow.

{{-}}

====Micro IR Transformers Cars====
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee MircroIR.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Drives and shoots!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2007)

: Made by [[RadioShack]] under license from [[Hasbro]] and [[Dreamworks]]. The three-function infrared remote, in Bumblebee's signature colors, gives you control of the car with forward and reverse turn movement. More than just a car styled after the Movie character, the car also transforms to robot mode. The top of the gun-shaped IR remote's barrel serves as a display stand. The tip of the gun barrel can also be unscrewed, revealing a pen (!) inside.

: This Bumblebee is a three-inch tall painted mini-statue of his 1976 Camaro body form. He features die-cast in his torso and thighs, and he has swivel joints at the shoulders, head and waist. Oh, and he comes with a Movie-style Autobot logo base to stand on.

: This item was also packed in with Ultimate Bumblebee as a Costco-exclusive set.

**''Japanese ID number:''

:''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends class Bumblebee is based upon the updated Camaro Concept featured in the movie (unlike the 2007 Legends class Bumblebee which was based on the 1976 Camaro).

: ''Beatmix'' Bumblebee is a device that hooks up to a music device, similarly to an ''iDog''. Like the aforementioned product, ''Beatmix'' Bumblebee reacts to the music being played (outputted via a speaker within him). With a touch, he can also sample the owner's music tracks and replay them with sound effects from the movie. His arms are posable, but Bumblebee cannot transform.

:The Bumblebee AllSpark Blaster is one of several Movie Roleplay toys. The toy consists of a a blaster attached to Bumblebee's (hollow) hand which a child can slip their own hand inside like a glove and wield. Pulling the trigger causes the toy to emit transformation sounds, allowing the user to transform the toy weapon from laser blaster mode to plasma cannon mode, by pulling the handle on the back. Laser blaster mode features laser pulse sounds and a "laser flare beam" (lights), while the plasma cannon mode has "plasma pulse lights" and explosion sounds.

*'''Transformers car air freshener''' (2007)

: A faithful replica of the "Bee-Otch" air freshener dangling from Bumblebee's rear-view mirror, with cinnamon scent. It was given out by the handful at [[BotCon 2007]]. Supposedly it was also available at retail, but no reliable sightings have been reported.

==Trivia==
* A weapon considered for Bumblebee was a pair of arm-mounted electrical "stingers". The Bumblebee Camaro '09 toy's blade weapon might have been influenced by this early concept.

{{picsneeded|various stuff}}
[[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] is the star of a [[Transformers (2007)|multi-million-dollar film]]. Ergo, he gets a lot of toys and merchandise!

==Toys==
===Transformers (2007)===
====Legends Class toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemovielegends.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Its not a Fiesta with racing stripes...its a fiesta of racing stripes!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Legends Class, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Bumblebee'''

: Legends Bumblebee transforms into a yellow 1976 Chevrolet Camaro. Being a highly simplified toy of a highly complex design, Legends-class Bumblebee does not replicate the appearance of the robot mode very well, and has very limited articulation, detail and paint application. On the other hand, he's pocket-sized and inexpensive, perfect for the younger set. The toy has a sculpted rear window, but it's not painted like the other windows. instead, the racing stripes extend over them.

{{-}}
*'''Optimus Prime bonus pack''' (Costco exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

:A Costco exclusive special pack of Leader Class Optimus Prime with Legends Class Bumblebee and [[Jazz (Movie)|Autobot Jazz]] as bonus figures. None of the three toys is changed from their respective original releases.

{{-}}

: A Toys'R'Us exclusive, this six-pack of Legends class figures contains unmodified toys of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]], Bumblebee, [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]], [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] and [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]].

*'''Bumblebee Scanning Ver.''' (''Hyper Hobby'' magazine exclusive EZ Collection variant, 2007)

*'''Metallic Bumblebee''' (Tsutaya Records exclusive EZ collection variant, 2007)

*'''Bumblebee vs. Scorponok''' (Legends Allspark Battles two-pack, 2008)

: As part of the ''AllSpark Battles'' Legends two-packs, a slightly redecoed Legends class Bumblebee, now sporting "battle damage" paint applications, comes with an all-new Legends [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] figure.

{{-}}
====Deluxe Class toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemovietoydeluxe67.jpg|right|250px|thumb|These used cars are fully loaded!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Classic Camaro, 2007)
**''ID number:'' '''MA-03'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: The first Deluxe Class version of Movie Bumblebee transforms into a yellow [[wikipedia:Second-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|1976 Chevrolet Camaro]] with a quite reasonable level of sculpted detail. In contrast to the other Deluxe-class car Transformers in the Movie toyline, he does not have clear windows, instead opting for opaque yellow plastic with painted metallic blue.

: Bumblebee is armed with two shoulder-mounted spring-loaded missile launchers (inspired by the shoulder-mounted missile launchers he uses to fight Brawl/Devastator in the movie), which also double as hand-held weapons or can be mounted on ports on the undersides of his elbows. His legs and chest [[Automorph]] during transformation.

: The initial release of the toy featured even tabs for the Automorph gimmick; oddly, Hasbro later decided to [[retool]] the feature so the tab would be uneven.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=29613 Original Allspark thread about the retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref> This resulted in many reported cases of the tab snapping during transformation. Press the button or you'll break him. Seriously. The retooled Automorph gimmick would be used for all subsequent versions of the mold, including the Japanese ones, and the breakage problem wouldn't be fixed until the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack and the Target exclusive "Evolution of a Hero" two-pack.

[[Image:Movie Deluxe 1974 Bumblebee JPtoy.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Never seen so much translucent plastic in all my life.]]
: Packaging photos and early [[Prototype|test shots]] of Hasbro's Bumblebee featured transparent blue plastic windows and missile parts. However, the final Hasbro production toy has opaque yellow plastic. The Japanese [[TakaraTomy]] release of Bumblebee retains the transparent blue plastic parts, with yellow paint for the outer car shell. As a consequence, the missiles, which are on the same sprue, are also made of clear blue plastic, just like the early prototype seen in the Hasbro stock photos for the toy. He also uses the retooled version of the mold with the fixed [[Automorph]] gimmick.

The packaging used for the Japanese toy is the same as for the Hasbro version, with the exception of additional stickers identifying it as a Japanese market release.
{{-}}
[[Image:Bumblebee Barricade deluxeboxset.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Go ahead, make my day!"]]
*'''Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This battle pack contains the 1976 Camaro deluxe-class Bumblebee and the deluxe-class [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]/[[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] figures, based upon their confrontation as seen in the movie. The box features a diorama-style background from a movie scene, but toys themselves are unchanged from their original carded releases.

: The set originally retailed for only slightly less than buying the two individual toys. However, for a short while, it was about the only way to ''get'' Bumblebee in the first place, thanks to the [[Movie (toyline)|toy drought]] following the movie's record-smashing opening.

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee Limited Metallic Color Version''' (Lawson exclusive Deluxe-sized Classic Camaro, TakaraTomy 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: A redeco of the Japanese version of the Classic Camaro Bumblebee mold (retaining the clear blue windows and missiles) that was exclusively available with the purchase of a ticket for the movie in Japanese Lawson stores.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie TowedtoSafety toys.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Sadly, All Spark Insurance doesn't cover towing charges.]]
*'''Towed to Safety''' (two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This set features an unaltered Deluxe class [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] figure and a Deluxe class 1976 Camaro Bumblebee figure. The window box features a diorama background of the battle in [[Mission City]] (basically the same packaging inner tray from the "Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter" pack). As is generally the case with the European releases of the Movie toys, the pictures on the front of the box show the robot-mode toys instead of an artist's depiction of their faces.

: For this two-pack, Hasbro slightly retooled Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick again, adding another small tab that finally resolved the breakage issues that had plagued the previous variation of the mold.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=38149 Allspark thread about the second retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref>

:Thus far, this pack has only been released in the United Kingdom.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Deluxe 2009 Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Nu-uh! You don't want none of this!]]
*'''Bumblebee (Camaro Concept)''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-10'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: The second Deluxe class Bumblebee toy, which shares no parts with the previous one (even the head, despite being based on the same general design, is a different sculpt), transforms into the [[wikipedia:Fifth-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|concept vehicle for the 2009 Chevrolet Camaro]]. Maintaining the high standard for car accuracy in the movie line, Bumblebee is very faithful to the real-life vehicle, featuring clear blue windows in contrast to the opaque windows seen in both his previous Deluxe class toy and the Ultimate Bumblebee toy.

: Bumblebee features two [[Automorph|Automorphing]] gimmicks during transformation: ''(a)'' swinging his hood down into robot mode position also moves his arms up and ''(b)'', swinging his feet down will move the rear fenders up and behind his calves, as well as swinging the rear windows to his inner calves in a spring-loaded action. Unusually, this version of Bumblebee is much more accurate to the CGI design than either the older-model Deluxe OR the Ultimate figure, with the chest properly articulating in a fairly Movie-accurate manner. He's also slightly taller than most of the other Deluxe Class figures.

: Bumblebee features a superb range of articulation, with ball joints in his shoulders, neck, torso, wrists and upper legs, with ratcheting and swivels making up the remaining joints. Instead of the rather inaccurate missile launchers from the 1976 Camaro toy, '09 Bumblebee comes with a mostly accurate version of his plasma cannon as it appears in the movie, but for added play value, it can Automorph into an energy blade by opening up the halves of the gun barrel and swinging them back. The cannon can be held in either of his hands.

: Care should be taken when removing the cannon from Bumblebee's hands, as excessive force can damage the wrist ball joint socket.

: Contrary to popular opinion, the yellow pieces on the back of Bumblebee's feet are ''not'' supposed to be heel spurs, nor have they been mis-assembled. They are supposed to fold up to emulate the detail found on the CGI design.

: A running change version of this mold adds tabs to the hip panels, which makes the vehicle mode hold together better, as well as sculpted pupils inside Bumblebee's eyes.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=144325 TFW2005 thread about the retool for the second Deluxe Bumblebee toy]</ref> Initially this was believed to be a variant for the Japanese market; however, later shipments of the Hasbro toy featured those changes as well, as did all subsequent versions of the mold.

: This mold was also used to make "Allspark Power" [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee Evolutionofahero.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Hey, look, Concept Camaro, now you are the piece o' crap.]]
*'''Evolution of a Hero''' (Target exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles, Plasma cannon

: A Target exclusive, this figure multi-pack contains an unchanged Deluxe-class 1976 Bumblebee and an exclusive "battle damaged" 2009 Camaro Concept Bumblebee. Even though the 2009 figure is supposed to represent Bumblebee's damaged state as he appeared during the final battle in the movie, oddly enough the "damage" paint decos do not appear to extend to his legs, restricting themselves to his upper torso and car roof/door parts. Maybe they didn't bother because they thought you'd take them off like in the movie. Go figure.

:The Classic Camaro Bumblebee toy included in this package features the same "fixed" Automorph gimmick also found on the version included in the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack. In addition, the Automorph button on the hood ''finally'' sports the painted pinstripes that had been missing on ''all'' previous releases of the mold.

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee and Optimus Prime''' (Argos exclusive two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: A two-pack, exclusively available at Argos stores in the United Kingdom, which contains an unchanged Voyager-class [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and an equally unchanged Deluxe-class Concept Camaro Bumblebee.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie ScreenBattles CaptureofBB.jpg|right|250px|thumb|You'll never take me alive!]]
*'''Capture of Bumblebee''' (Screen Battles diorama pack, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-04'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes a [[Redeco|redecoed]] Camaro Concept Deluxe-class Bumblebee featuring a more accurate gray color scheme for his robot mode parts and a silver-painted face, Autobot symbol and toes. Additionally, a new red Autobot symbol is placed on his forehead, while his translucent parts are now a greener blue. The pack also comes with non-posable figurines of [[Sector Seven]] agent [[Reggie Simmons]] and two Sector Seven soldiers; one carrying a cryo-freezing cannon and one carrying a grenade launcher.

: This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the scene in which Bumblebee is captured by Sector Seven forces.

:According to details listed in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this pack was originally supposed to feature "ice soldiers" (plural), in addition to an "S7 agent" and an "S7 soldier". Apparently budget ultimately only allowed for one. The grenade launcher-wielding S7 soldier also looks conspicuously like [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]] colored as a Sector Seven soldier (it's possible that the figure had originally been intended for the Screen Battles "Desert Attack" pack with [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]]).

{{-}}
[[Image:MovieTargetAllsparkDeluxeBumblebee.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Bumblebee just went neon. For Playskool, see the Cyber Slammers version.]]
*'''All Spark-Enhanced Bumblebee''' (Target Exclusive Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This Target exclusive features the Deluxe Class Bumblebee in unique cylindrical packaging, with the only difference from his standard release being that key robot mode parts are highlighted by the slavish 'All Spark Blue' color for no other reason than [[to sell toys]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Deluxe StealthBumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Bumblebee, as he appears in the Bizarro World.]]
*'''Stealth Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: Stealth Bumblebee is an extensive redeco and minor retool of the Deluxe class 2009 Camaro Bumblebee toy. The redeco itself is unusual in that the yellow parts are still cast in yellow plastic, but painted black. Other color differences include changing the robot mode body parts from black to gray and adding bright blue ''AllSpark Power'' decos.

:The head has also been retooled to reflect Bumblebee's 'battle mask' as seen in the Movie. The "mask" does not flip up to reveal his head. Bummer.

{{-}}
[[Image:MovieDeluxePremiumBumblebee.jpg|right|250px|thumb|You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' ("Premium Series" Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-22'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

:This [[redeco]] of the Deluxe-class Concept Camaro toy features a similar deco as the Screen Battles version in terms of plastic colours, but replaces the head sculpt with the "battle mask" sculpt previously used for Stealth Bumblebee. All of his outer car body panels have been coated in a metallic yellow paint job.

{{-}}
*'''Legacy of Bumblebee''' (Deluxe class multi-pack, 2008)

:A Walmart [[exclusive]] three pack, the ''Legacy of Bumblebee'' collector's set comes with [[Bumblebee (G1)|''Classics'']], Movie Deluxe Concept Camaro ([[Premium Series]]) and ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]]'' [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]] figures. While the ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' Bumblebees are identical to their original, single carded releases, the ''Classics'' Bumblebee has been redecoed to more closely resemble his ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' counterparts, changing his white stripes to black, and his grey/silver plastic to yellow, similarly to ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Bumble.

====Screen Battles====
[[Image:Movie ScreenBattles FinalStand1.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Half a bee, philosophically/ Must, ipso facto, half not be./ But half the bee has got to be/ Vis-a-vis, its entity. D'you see?"]]
*'''Final Stand''' (Screen Battles, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-02'''

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes with an altered [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] toy and a posable, non-transforming, battle-damaged Bumblebee figure very similar to the ''Robot Replicas'' toy, yet surprisingly utilizing none of the same parts despite being on an identical scale. This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the battle in Mission City.

:Although entirely comprised of original sculpting, such as the gimpy leg-stumps, the Bumblebee figure oddly does not feature the character's distinctive car door "wings" on his back. However, keen [[Kitbashing|customisers]] can easily rectify this by slicing the "Robot Replicas" version's wings off and whittling their connecting plastic into simple posts that very handily plug into large holes in the tires on Final Stand 'Bee's back. In fact, these holes almost seem designed to accommodate a missing part. (Considering how all the other Screen Battles sets were apparently originally intended to feature more, or at least more elaborate, accessory figures based on their entries in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this seems indeed very plausible.)

{{-}}
====Ultimate====
[[Image:Ultimate Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|All those extras and they couldn't make me more accurate than the deluxe class toy.]]
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee''' (Ultimate, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

: Similar in appearance to the second Deluxe-class Bumblebee toy, albeit much larger and more complex, the 'Ultimate' version of Bumblebee also transforms into the 2009 concept Camaro. The toy features animatronic movement in robot mode (flapping wings, moving arms and a rotating head) and light-up eyes and headlights, activated by the movement or sounds made by the person playing with the toy, or by pressing his buttons, which also activate an obscene number of interactive electronic sound effects. Oddly enough, despite being mute for most of the movie, Bumblebee has a wide range of phrases (Which don't even sound like him). His chest button yields various phrases and a new version of the ''Transformers'' theme tune, while a button on his side produces blaster noises, more speech, and musical samples, including four different ones from Devo's "Whip It." This button also causes the toy to raise its cannon-arm and automatically fire a missile. Playing with the toy by moving it will make him repeat various phrases and samples activated by other features, as well as crashing battle noises, but when he is left idle, more unique phrases will be uttered inquiring where everyone has gone, as well as radio snippets to the same effect, before the toy eventually deactivates. Pressing any button will bring him back online with a cheerful shout.

: Transforming the toy between modes is accompanied by the classic transformation noise, and if left unattended between modes, it will make stalling engine noises, car horn and a car alarm sounds. Once in car mode, new electronics are unlocked, beginning with the sound of an engine starting up. The chest button now activates the car's horn, and rolling the figure along will create an accelerating noise that increases the faster the toy is moved. More unique musical snippets will play as the car rolls along; when the rolling stops, brake lights activate and the tires screech. Yet more sounds are produced when Bumblebee is rolled backwards, and the car mode also features different crashing battle noises to the robot mode.

: All of the toy's features can be turned off by a switch, and it has an additional "Try Me" mode which allows you to hear various sounds from the toy's various functions just by pressing the chest button.

: The toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure made the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block resting on Bumblebee's chest. In reality, it splits up into five separate pieces to fold and collapse into a more movie-like appearance.

: In the holiday season, Wal-Mart carried an exclusive "Bonus Buy" version of the toy, which had the Deluxe [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] and [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] toys added as freebies. Costco also carried an exclusive version, with the 3" [[Titanium Series]] version of Bumblebee packed in. However, it did not include the display stand.

{{-}}
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee bonus pack''' (Costco exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

:A Costco-exclusive special pack of Ultimate Bumblebee with Titanium Series Bumblebee (see below) as a bonus figure. Neither toy is changed from its respective original release.

{{-}}
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee Bonus Value pack''' (Wal*Mart exclusive multi-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

:A Wal*Mart-exclusive special pack of Ultimate Bumblebee with Deluxe Class [[Brawl (Movie)|Decepticon Brawl]] and [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] as bonus figures. None of the three toys are changed from their respective original releases.

{{-}}
====Fast Action Battlers====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviefab.jpg|right|250px|thumb|]]
*'''Plasma Punch Bumblebee''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Projectile

:[[Fast Action Battler|Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a considerably simpler transformation than the standard deluxe toy, intended for the slightly younger set. His main "gimmick" is a spring-loaded missile launcher in his right arm. As is also the case with Ultimate Bumblebee, the toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure make the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block. In reality, the chest/bumper consists of two rotating pieces which can pivot down so as to more accurately emulate the appearance in the movie.

{{-}}
[[Image:FAB Rally Rocket BB.jpg|right|250px|thumb|A rally car that isn't Smokescreen. Now that's something new.]]
*'''Rally Rocket Bumblebee''' (Fast Action Battler, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Projectile

:A [[repaint]] of Plasma Punch Bumblebee. It transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a simple transformation. The right arm is a spring loaded missile launcher. As is also the case with the original [[Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee, the hood is presented as a solid brick.

{{-}}
====Cyber Slammers toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviecyberslammer.jpg|right|250px|thumb|A Battlecharger for the new millennium.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Classic Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

: Cyber Slammers Bumblebee is an amazingly cute 1976 Camaro that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot buddy of human characters. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along for a while, then snaps back up into robot mode.

: This toy was also made available during the 2007 holiday season as a freebie "Bonus Buy" packaged with Cyber Stompin' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] at Wal-Mart stores.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee CamaroConcept CyberSlammer.jpg|right|250px|thumb|And so, Bumblebee rejoins the Throttlebots.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Concept Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

:The second [[Cyber Slammers]] Bumblebee figure toy transforms into a Concept Camaro and shares no parts with the previous Cyber Slammers Bumblebee figure. Like all Cyber Slammers, the toy features motorized action. When you push down on the car, it zooms forward, then pops up into robot mode! Sure to please the toddler you brought with you to the PG-13 movie. Like most Cyber Slammers, Bumblebee manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

: This toy was later redecoed into [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

{{-}}
====Trans-Scanning====
[[Image:Movie TranScanning Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|whY mY SHoUlDeRs hUrT?(Now I know how Hot Shot feels)]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TS-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Display stand

: [[Trans-scan|Trans-scanning]] Bumblebee is a Japanese-exclusive figure with many interchangeable parts. At its most basic, the figure is a spindly skeleton referred to as a "Core Body". To this skeleton, two sets of armor pieces can be attached to create one of two forms for Bumblebee: his [[protoform]] mode or his Earth mode.

: The protoform mode consists of eight pieces of golden plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be manipulated in a manner that might charitably be called "transformation" into his meteor-like "entry mode," accomplished by doing little more than tucking the head out of sight and folding the chest back. This golden-and-grey lump can be mounted on a three-piece stand that comes with the figure, allowing you to display it in mid-plummet. Bumblebee's Earth mode, meanwhile, is made up of nineteen armor pieces (including a particularly large backpack) that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a Camaro Concept.

: Bumblebee also includes a pair of interchangeable, open-palmed hands that can be swapped out for the clenched fists that are in place in-package. The Core Body mold was re-used for the simultaneously released Trans-Scanning [[Optimus Prime (Movie) toys|Optimus Prime]] figure.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Cyber Stompin' Robots, 2007)

: [[Cyber Stompin' Robots]] Bee is a large electronic action figure, featuring a rather cutified design. He's got electronic lights and sounds up the whazzoo and fires missiles and a fist. He totally plays the original theme song.

: Later in the year, Wal-Mart stores sold this toy as a "Bonus Buy" item, which came with a free Cyber Slammer [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] attached to the box back.

====Robot Replicas====
[[Image:Movie RobotReplica Bumblebee.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Heli-pack not included]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Robot Replicas, 2007)

: As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] sub-line, this version of concept-Camaro Bumblebee is a non-transforming action figure that hews very close to the movie's CGI model. It features joints similar to the [[Revoltech]] toys, plus his right forearm can be replaced with his blaster-arm (or any other arm attachments from other Robot Replicas, which could lead to some fun Frankensteins). For some reason, he's closer to orange than his normal yellow.

====Micro IR Transformers Cars====

The three-function infrared remote, in Bumblebee's signature colors, gives you control of the car with forward and reverse turn movement. More than just a car styled after the Movie character, the car also transforms to robot mode. The top of the gun-shaped IR remote's barrel serves as a display stand. The tip of the gun barrel can also be unscrewed, revealing a pen (!) inside.

====Legends Class toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemovielegends.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Its not a Fiesta with racing stripes...its a fiesta of racing stripes!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Legends Class, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Bumblebee'''

: Legends Bumblebee transforms into a yellow 1976 Chevrolet Camaro. Being a highly simplified toy of a highly complex design, Legends-class Bumblebee does not replicate the appearance of the robot mode very well, and has very limited articulation, detail and paint application. On the other hand, he's pocket-sized and inexpensive, perfect for the younger set. The toy has a sculpted rear window, but it's not painted like the other windows. instead, the racing stripes extend over them.

{{-}}
*'''Optimus Prime bonus pack''' (Costco exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

*'''Bumblebee vs. Scorponok''' (Legends Allspark Battles two-pack, 2008)

: As part of the ''AllSpark Battles'' Legends two-packs, a slightly redecoed Legends class Bumblebee, now sporting "battle damage" paint applications, comes with an all-new Legends [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] figure.

{{-}}
====Deluxe Class toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemovietoydeluxe67.jpg|right|250px|thumb|These used cars are fully loaded!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Classic Camaro, 2007)
**''ID number:'' '''MA-03'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: The first Deluxe Class version of Movie Bumblebee transforms into a yellow [[wikipedia:Second-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|1976 Chevrolet Camaro]] with a quite reasonable level of sculpted detail. In contrast to the other Deluxe-class car Transformers in the Movie toyline, he does not have clear windows, instead opting for opaque yellow plastic with painted metallic blue.

: Bumblebee is armed with two shoulder-mounted spring-loaded missile launchers (inspired by the shoulder-mounted missile launchers he uses to fight Brawl/Devastator in the movie), which also double as hand-held weapons or can be mounted on ports on the undersides of his elbows. His legs and chest [[Automorph]] during transformation.

: The initial release of the toy featured even tabs for the Automorph gimmick; oddly, Hasbro later decided to [[retool]] the feature so the tab would be uneven.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=29613 Original Allspark thread about the retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref> This resulted in many reported cases of the tab snapping during transformation. Press the button or you'll break him. Seriously. The retooled Automorph gimmick would be used for all subsequent versions of the mold, including the Japanese ones, and the breakage problem wouldn't be fixed until the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack and the Target exclusive "Evolution of a Hero" two-pack.

[[Image:Movie Deluxe 1974 Bumblebee JPtoy.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Never seen so much translucent plastic in all my life.]]
: Packaging photos and early [[Prototype|test shots]] of Hasbro's Bumblebee featured transparent blue plastic windows and missile parts. However, the final Hasbro production toy has opaque yellow plastic. The Japanese [[TakaraTomy]] release of Bumblebee retains the transparent blue plastic parts, with yellow paint for the outer car shell. As a consequence, the missiles, which are on the same sprue, are also made of clear blue plastic, just like the early prototype seen in the Hasbro stock photos for the toy. He also uses the retooled version of the mold with the fixed [[Automorph]] gimmick.

The packaging used for the Japanese toy is the same as for the Hasbro version, with the exception of additional stickers identifying it as a Japanese market release.
{{-}}
[[Image:Bumblebee Barricade deluxeboxset.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Go ahead, make my day!"]]
*'''Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This battle pack contains the 1976 Camaro deluxe-class Bumblebee and the deluxe-class [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]/[[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] figures, based upon their confrontation as seen in the movie. The box features a diorama-style background from a movie scene, but toys themselves are unchanged from their original carded releases.

: The set originally retailed for only slightly less than buying the two individual toys. However, for a short while, it was about the only way to ''get'' Bumblebee in the first place, thanks to the [[Movie (toyline)|toy drought]] following the movie's record-smashing opening.

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee Limited Metallic Color Version''' (Lawson exclusive Deluxe-sized Classic Camaro, TakaraTomy 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: A redeco of the Japanese version of the Classic Camaro Bumblebee mold (retaining the clear blue windows and missiles) that was exclusively available with the purchase of a ticket for the movie in Japanese Lawson stores.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie TowedtoSafety toys.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Sadly, All Spark Insurance doesn't cover towing charges.]]
*'''Towed to Safety''' (two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This set features an unaltered Deluxe class [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] figure and a Deluxe class 1976 Camaro Bumblebee figure. The window box features a diorama background of the battle in [[Mission City]] (basically the same packaging inner tray from the "Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter" pack). As is generally the case with the European releases of the Movie toys, the pictures on the front of the box show the robot-mode toys instead of an artist's depiction of their faces.

: For this two-pack, Hasbro slightly retooled Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick again, adding another small tab that finally resolved the breakage issues that had plagued the previous variation of the mold.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=38149 Allspark thread about the second retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref>

:Thus far, this pack has only been released in the United Kingdom.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Deluxe 2009 Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Nu-uh! You don't want none of this!]]
*'''Bumblebee (Camaro Concept)''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-10'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: The second Deluxe class Bumblebee toy, which shares no parts with the previous one (even the head, despite being based on the same general design, is a different sculpt), transforms into the [[wikipedia:Fifth-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|concept vehicle for the 2009 Chevrolet Camaro]]. Maintaining the high standard for car accuracy in the movie line, Bumblebee is very faithful to the real-life vehicle, featuring clear blue windows in contrast to the opaque windows seen in both his previous Deluxe class toy and the Ultimate Bumblebee toy.

: Bumblebee features two [[Automorph|Automorphing]] gimmicks during transformation: ''(a)'' swinging his hood down into robot mode position also moves his arms up and ''(b)'', swinging his feet down will move the rear fenders up and behind his calves, as well as swinging the rear windows to his inner calves in a spring-loaded action. Unusually, this version of Bumblebee is much more accurate to the CGI design than either the older-model Deluxe OR the Ultimate figure, with the chest properly articulating in a fairly Movie-accurate manner. He's also slightly taller than most of the other Deluxe Class figures.

: Bumblebee features a superb range of articulation, with ball joints in his shoulders, neck, torso, wrists and upper legs, with ratcheting and swivels making up the remaining joints. Instead of the rather inaccurate missile launchers from the 1976 Camaro toy, '09 Bumblebee comes with a mostly accurate version of his plasma cannon as it appears in the movie, but for added play value, it can Automorph into an energy blade by opening up the halves of the gun barrel and swinging them back. The cannon can be held in either of his hands.

: Care should be taken when removing the cannon from Bumblebee's hands, as excessive force can damage the wrist ball joint socket.

: Contrary to popular opinion, the yellow pieces on the back of Bumblebee's feet are ''not'' supposed to be heel spurs, nor have they been mis-assembled. They are supposed to fold up to emulate the detail found on the CGI design.

: A running change version of this mold adds tabs to the hip panels, which makes the vehicle mode hold together better, as well as sculpted pupils inside Bumblebee's eyes.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=144325 TFW2005 thread about the retool for the second Deluxe Bumblebee toy]</ref> Initially this was believed to be a variant for the Japanese market; however, later shipments of the Hasbro toy featured those changes as well, as did all subsequent versions of the mold.

: This mold was also used to make "Allspark Power" [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee Evolutionofahero.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Hey, look, Concept Camaro, now you are the piece o' crap.]]
*'''Evolution of a Hero''' (Target exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles, Plasma cannon

: A Target exclusive, this figure multi-pack contains an unchanged Deluxe-class 1976 Bumblebee and an exclusive "battle damaged" 2009 Camaro Concept Bumblebee. Even though the 2009 figure is supposed to represent Bumblebee's damaged state as he appeared during the final battle in the movie, oddly enough the "damage" paint decos do not appear to extend to his legs, restricting themselves to his upper torso and car roof/door parts. Maybe they didn't bother because they thought you'd take them off like in the movie. Go figure.

:The Classic Camaro Bumblebee toy included in this package features the same "fixed" Automorph gimmick also found on the version included in the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack. In addition, the Automorph button on the hood ''finally'' sports the painted pinstripes that had been missing on ''all'' previous releases of the mold.

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee and Optimus Prime''' (Argos exclusive two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: A two-pack, exclusively available at Argos stores in the United Kingdom, which contains an unchanged Voyager-class [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and an equally unchanged Deluxe-class Concept Camaro Bumblebee.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie ScreenBattles CaptureofBB.jpg|right|250px|thumb|You'll never take me alive!]]
*'''Capture of Bumblebee''' (Screen Battles diorama pack, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-04'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes a [[Redeco|redecoed]] Camaro Concept Deluxe-class Bumblebee featuring a more accurate gray color scheme for his robot mode parts and a silver-painted face, Autobot symbol and toes. Additionally, a new red Autobot symbol is placed on his forehead, while his translucent parts are now a greener blue. The pack also comes with non-posable figurines of [[Sector Seven]] agent [[Reggie Simmons]] and two Sector Seven soldiers; one carrying a cryo-freezing cannon and one carrying a grenade launcher.

: This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the scene in which Bumblebee is captured by Sector Seven forces.

:According to details listed in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this pack was originally supposed to feature "ice soldiers" (plural), in addition to an "S7 agent" and an "S7 soldier". Apparently budget ultimately only allowed for one. The grenade launcher-wielding S7 soldier also looks conspicuously like [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]] colored as a Sector Seven soldier (it's possible that the figure had originally been intended for the Screen Battles "Desert Attack" pack with [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]]).

*'''All Spark-Enhanced Bumblebee''' (Target Exclusive Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This Target exclusive features the Deluxe Class Bumblebee in unique cylindrical packaging, with the only difference from his standard release being that key robot mode parts are highlighted by the slavish 'All Spark Blue' color for no other reason than [[to sell toys]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Deluxe StealthBumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Bumblebee, as he appears in the Bizarro World.]]
*'''Stealth Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: Stealth Bumblebee is an extensive redeco and minor retool of the Deluxe class 2009 Camaro Bumblebee toy. The redeco itself is unusual in that the yellow parts are still cast in yellow plastic, but painted black. Other color differences include changing the robot mode body parts from black to gray and adding bright blue ''AllSpark Power'' decos.

:The head has also been retooled to reflect Bumblebee's 'battle mask' as seen in the Movie. The "mask" does not flip up to reveal his head. Bummer.

*'''Bumblebee''' ("Premium Series" Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-22'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

:This [[redeco]] of the Deluxe-class Concept Camaro toy features a similar deco as the Screen Battles version in terms of plastic colours, but replaces the head sculpt with the "battle mask" sculpt previously used for Stealth Bumblebee. All of his outer car body panels have been coated in a metallic yellow paint job.

{{-}}
*'''Legacy of Bumblebee''' (Deluxe class multi-pack, 2008)

:A Walmart [[exclusive]] three pack, the ''Legacy of Bumblebee'' collector's set comes with [[Bumblebee (G1)|''Classics'']], Movie Deluxe Concept Camaro ([[Premium Series]]) and ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]]'' [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]] figures. While the ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' Bumblebees are identical to their original, single carded releases, the ''Classics'' Bumblebee has been redecoed to more closely resemble his ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' counterparts, changing his white stripes to black, and his grey/silver plastic to yellow, similarly to ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Bumble.

====Screen Battles====
[[Image:Movie ScreenBattles FinalStand1.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Half a bee, philosophically/ Must, ipso facto, half not be./ But half the bee has got to be/ Vis-a-vis, its entity. D'you see?"]]
*'''Final Stand''' (Screen Battles, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-02'''

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes with an altered [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] toy and a posable, non-transforming, battle-damaged Bumblebee figure very similar to the ''Robot Replicas'' toy, yet surprisingly utilizing none of the same parts despite being on an identical scale. This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the battle in Mission City.

:Although entirely comprised of original sculpting, such as the gimpy leg-stumps, the Bumblebee figure oddly does not feature the character's distinctive car door "wings" on his back. However, keen [[Kitbashing|customisers]] can easily rectify this by slicing the "Robot Replicas" version's wings off and whittling their connecting plastic into simple posts that very handily plug into large holes in the tires on Final Stand 'Bee's back. In fact, these holes almost seem designed to accommodate a missing part. (Considering how all the other Screen Battles sets were apparently originally intended to feature more, or at least more elaborate, accessory figures based on their entries in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this seems indeed very plausible.)

{{-}}
====Ultimate====
[[Image:Ultimate Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|All those extras and they couldn't make me more accurate than the deluxe class toy.]]
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee''' (Ultimate, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

: Similar in appearance to the second Deluxe-class Bumblebee toy, albeit much larger and more complex, the 'Ultimate' version of Bumblebee also transforms into the 2009 concept Camaro. The toy features animatronic movement in robot mode (flapping wings, moving arms and a rotating head) and light-up eyes and headlights, activated by the movement or sounds made by the person playing with the toy, or by pressing his buttons, which also activate an obscene number of interactive electronic sound effects. Oddly enough, despite being mute for most of the movie, Bumblebee has a wide range of phrases (Which don't even sound like him). His chest button yields various phrases and a new version of the ''Transformers'' theme tune, while a button on his side produces blaster noises, more speech, and musical samples, including four different ones from Devo's "Whip It." This button also causes the toy to raise its cannon-arm and automatically fire a missile. Playing with the toy by moving it will make him repeat various phrases and samples activated by other features, as well as crashing battle noises, but when he is left idle, more unique phrases will be uttered inquiring where everyone has gone, as well as radio snippets to the same effect, before the toy eventually deactivates. Pressing any button will bring him back online with a cheerful shout.

: Transforming the toy between modes is accompanied by the classic transformation noise, and if left unattended between modes, it will make stalling engine noises, car horn and a car alarm sounds. Once in car mode, new electronics are unlocked, beginning with the sound of an engine starting up. The chest button now activates the car's horn, and rolling the figure along will create an accelerating noise that increases the faster the toy is moved. More unique musical snippets will play as the car rolls along; when the rolling stops, brake lights activate and the tires screech. Yet more sounds are produced when Bumblebee is rolled backwards, and the car mode also features different crashing battle noises to the robot mode.

: All of the toy's features can be turned off by a switch, and it has an additional "Try Me" mode which allows you to hear various sounds from the toy's various functions just by pressing the chest button.

: The toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure made the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block resting on Bumblebee's chest. In reality, it splits up into five separate pieces to fold and collapse into a more movie-like appearance.

: In the holiday season, Wal-Mart carried an exclusive "Bonus Buy" version of the toy, which had the Deluxe [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] and [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] toys added as freebies. Costco also carried an exclusive version, with the 3" [[Titanium Series]] version of Bumblebee packed in. However, it did not include the display stand.

{{-}}
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee bonus pack''' (Costco exclusive two-pack, 2007)

:A Costco-exclusive special pack of Ultimate Bumblebee with Titanium Series Bumblebee (see below) as a bonus figure. Neither toy is changed from its respective original release.

====Fast Action Battlers====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviefab.jpg|right|250px|thumb|]]
*'''Plasma Punch Bumblebee''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Projectile

:[[Fast Action Battler|Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a considerably simpler transformation than the standard deluxe toy, intended for the slightly younger set. His main "gimmick" is a spring-loaded missile launcher in his right arm. As is also the case with Ultimate Bumblebee, the toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure make the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block. In reality, the chest/bumper consists of two rotating pieces which can pivot down so as to more accurately emulate the appearance in the movie.

*'''Rally Rocket Bumblebee''' (Fast Action Battler, 2008)

:A [[repaint]] of Plasma Punch Bumblebee. It transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a simple transformation. The right arm is a spring loaded missile launcher. As is also the case with the original [[Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee, the hood is presented as a solid brick.

====Cyber Slammers toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviecyberslammer.jpg|right|250px|thumb|A Battlecharger for the new millennium.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Classic Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

: Cyber Slammers Bumblebee is an amazingly cute 1976 Camaro that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot buddy of human characters. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along for a while, then snaps back up into robot mode.

: This toy was also made available during the 2007 holiday season as a freebie "Bonus Buy" packaged with Cyber Stompin' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] at Wal-Mart stores.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee CamaroConcept CyberSlammer.jpg|right|250px|thumb|And so, Bumblebee rejoins the Throttlebots.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Concept Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

:The second [[Cyber Slammers]] Bumblebee figure toy transforms into a Concept Camaro and shares no parts with the previous Cyber Slammers Bumblebee figure. Like all Cyber Slammers, the toy features motorized action. When you push down on the car, it zooms forward, then pops up into robot mode! Sure to please the toddler you brought with you to the PG-13 movie. Like most Cyber Slammers, Bumblebee manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

: This toy was later redecoed into [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

{{-}}
====Trans-Scanning====
[[Image:Movie TranScanning Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|whY mY SHoUlDeRs hUrT?(Now I know how Hot Shot feels)]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TS-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Display stand

: [[Trans-scan|Trans-scanning]] Bumblebee is a Japanese-exclusive figure with many interchangeable parts. At its most basic, the figure is a spindly skeleton referred to as a "Core Body". To this skeleton, two sets of armor pieces can be attached to create one of two forms for Bumblebee: his [[protoform]] mode or his Earth mode.

: The protoform mode consists of eight pieces of golden plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be manipulated in a manner that might charitably be called "transformation" into his meteor-like "entry mode," accomplished by doing little more than tucking the head out of sight and folding the chest back. This golden-and-grey lump can be mounted on a three-piece stand that comes with the figure, allowing you to display it in mid-plummet. Bumblebee's Earth mode, meanwhile, is made up of nineteen armor pieces (including a particularly large backpack) that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a Camaro Concept.

: Bumblebee also includes a pair of interchangeable, open-palmed hands that can be swapped out for the clenched fists that are in place in-package. The Core Body mold was re-used for the simultaneously released Trans-Scanning [[Optimus Prime (Movie) toys|Optimus Prime]] figure.

====Cyber Stompin' robots====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviecyberstompin.jpg|right|150px|thumb|These boots were made for—you know the rest.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Cyber Stompin' Robots, 2007)

: [[Cyber Stompin' Robots]] Bee is a large electronic action figure, featuring a rather cutified design. He's got electronic lights and sounds up the whazzoo and fires missiles and a fist. He totally plays the original theme song.

: Later in the year, Wal-Mart stores sold this toy as a "Bonus Buy" item, which came with a free Cyber Slammer [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] attached to the box back.

{{-}}
====Robot Replicas====
[[Image:Movie RobotReplica Bumblebee.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Heli-pack not included]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Robot Replicas, 2007)

: As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] sub-line, this version of concept-Camaro Bumblebee is a non-transforming action figure that hews very close to the movie's CGI model. It features joints similar to the [[Revoltech]] toys, plus his right forearm can be replaced with his blaster-arm (or any other arm attachments from other Robot Replicas, which could lead to some fun Frankensteins). For some reason, he's closer to orange than his normal yellow.

{{-}}

====Micro IR Transformers Cars====
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee MircroIR.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Drives and shoots!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2007)

: Made by [[RadioShack]] under license from [[Hasbro]] and [[Dreamworks]]. The three-function infrared remote, in Bumblebee's signature colors, gives you control of the car with forward and reverse turn movement. More than just a car styled after the Movie character, the car also transforms to robot mode. The top of the gun-shaped IR remote's barrel serves as a display stand. The tip of the gun barrel can also be unscrewed, revealing a pen (!) inside.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Robot Masters, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Movie-style Autobot sigil isplay stand

: This Bumblebee is a three-inch tall painted mini-statue of his 1976 Camaro body form. He features die-cast in his torso and thighs, and he has swivel joints at the shoulders, head and waist. Oh, and he comes with a Movie-style Autobot logo base to stand on.

: This item was also packed in with Ultimate Bumblebee as a Costco-exclusive set.

===Revenge of the Fallen===
====Legends Class toys====

*'''Bumblebee''' (2009)
**''Japanese ID number:''

:''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends class Bumblebee is based upon the updated Camaro Concept featured in the movie (unlike the 2007 Legends class Bumblebee which was based on the 1976 Camaro). Compared to the previous Movie Legends, he has better, more accurate detailing and proportions (or as accurate as can be obtained at this [[pricepoint]]).

**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Bumblebee'''

: Legends Bumblebee transforms into a yellow 1976 Chevrolet Camaro. Being a highly simplified toy of a highly complex design, Legends-class Bumblebee does not replicate the appearance of the robot mode very well, and has very limited articulation, detail and paint application. On the other hand, he's pocket-sized and inexpensive, perfect for the younger set.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Classic Camaro, 2007)
**''ID number:'' '''MA-03'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: The first Deluxe Class version of Movie Bumblebee transforms into a yellow [[wikipedia:Second-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|1976 Chevrolet Camaro]] with a quite reasonable level of sculpted detail. In contrast to the other Deluxe-class car Transformers in the Movie toyline, he does not have clear windows, instead opting for opaque yellow plastic with painted metallic blue.

: Bumblebee is armed with two shoulder-mounted spring-loaded missile launchers (inspired by the shoulder-mounted missile launchers he uses to fight Brawl/Devastator in the movie), which also double as hand-held weapons or can be mounted on ports on the undersides of his elbows. His legs and chest [[Automorph]] during transformation.

: The initial release of the toy featured even tabs for the Automorph gimmick; oddly, Hasbro later decided to [[retool]] the feature so the tab would be uneven.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=29613 Original Allspark thread about the retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref> This resulted in many reported cases of the tab snapping during transformation. Press the button or you'll break him. Seriously. The retooled Automorph gimmick would be used for all subsequent versions of the mold, including the Japanese ones, and the breakage problem wouldn't be fixed until the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack and the Target exclusive "Evolution of a Hero" two-pack.

[[Image:Movie Deluxe 1974 Bumblebee JPtoy.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Never seen so much translucent plastic in all my life.]]
: Packaging photos and early [[Prototype|test shots]] of Hasbro's Bumblebee featured transparent blue plastic windows and missile parts. However, the final Hasbro production toy has opaque yellow plastic. The Japanese [[TakaraTomy]] release of Bumblebee retains the transparent blue plastic parts, with yellow paint for the outer car shell. As a consequence, the missiles, which are on the same sprue, are also made of clear blue plastic, just like the early prototype seen in the Hasbro stock photos for the toy. He also uses the retooled version of the mold with the fixed [[Automorph]] gimmick.

The packaging used for the Japanese toy is the same as for the Hasbro version, with the exception of additional stickers identifying it as a Japanese market release.

*'''Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This battle pack contains the 1976 Camaro deluxe-class Bumblebee and the deluxe-class [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]/[[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] figures, based upon their confrontation as seen in the movie. The box features a diorama-style background from a movie scene, but toys themselves are unchanged from their original carded releases.

: The set originally retailed for only slightly less than buying the two individual toys. However, for a short while, it was about the only way to ''get'' Bumblebee in the first place, thanks to the [[Movie (toyline)|toy drought]] following the movie's record-smashing opening.

*'''Bumblebee Limited Metallic Color Version''' (Lawson exclusive Deluxe-sized Classic Camaro, TakaraTomy 2007)

*'''Towed to Safety''' (two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This set features an unaltered Deluxe class [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] figure and a Deluxe class 1976 Camaro Bumblebee figure. The window box features a diorama background of the battle in [[Mission City]] (basically the same packaging inner tray from the "Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter" pack). As is generally the case with the European releases of the Movie toys, the pictures on the front of the box show the robot-mode toys instead of an artist's depiction of their faces.

: For this two-pack, Hasbro slightly retooled Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick again, adding another small tab that finally resolved the breakage issues that had plagued the previous variation of the mold.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=38149 Allspark thread about the second retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref>

:Thus far, this pack has only been released in the United Kingdom.

*'''Bumblebee (Camaro Concept)''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-10'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: The second Deluxe class Bumblebee toy, which shares no parts with the previous one (even the head, despite being based on the same general design, is a different sculpt), transforms into the [[wikipedia:Fifth-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|concept vehicle for the 2009 Chevrolet Camaro]]. Maintaining the high standard for car accuracy in the movie line, Bumblebee is very faithful to the real-life vehicle, featuring clear blue windows in contrast to the opaque windows seen in both his previous Deluxe class toy and the Ultimate Bumblebee toy.

: Bumblebee features two [[Automorph|Automorphing]] gimmicks during transformation: ''(a)'' swinging his hood down into robot mode position also moves his arms up and ''(b)'', swinging his feet down will move the rear fenders up and behind his calves, as well as swinging the rear windows to his inner calves in a spring-loaded action. Unusually, this version of Bumblebee is much more accurate to the CGI design than either the older-model Deluxe OR the Ultimate figure, with the chest properly articulating in a fairly Movie-accurate manner. He's also slightly taller than most of the other Deluxe Class figures.

: Bumblebee features a superb range of articulation, with ball joints in his shoulders, neck, torso, wrists and upper legs, with ratcheting and swivels making up the remaining joints. Instead of the rather inaccurate missile launchers from the 1976 Camaro toy, '09 Bumblebee comes with a mostly accurate version of his plasma cannon as it appears in the movie, but for added play value, it can Automorph into an energy blade by opening up the halves of the gun barrel and swinging them back. The cannon can be held in either of his hands.

: Care should be taken when removing the cannon from Bumblebee's hands, as excessive force can damage the wrist ball joint socket.

: Contrary to popular opinion, the yellow pieces on the back of Bumblebee's feet are ''not'' supposed to be heel spurs, nor have they been mis-assembled. They are supposed to fold up to emulate the detail found on the CGI design.

: A running change version of this mold adds tabs to the hip panels, which makes the vehicle mode hold together better, as well as sculpted pupils inside Bumblebee's eyes.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=144325 TFW2005 thread about the retool for the second Deluxe Bumblebee toy]</ref> Initially this was believed to be a variant for the Japanese market; however, later shipments of the Hasbro toy featured those changes as well, as did all subsequent versions of the mold.

: This mold was also used to make "Allspark Power" [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

[[Image:Movie Bumblebee Evolutionofahero.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Hey, look, Concept Camaro, now you are the piece o' crap.]]
*'''Evolution of a Hero''' (Target exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles, Plasma cannon

: A Target exclusive, this figure multi-pack contains an unchanged Deluxe-class 1976 Bumblebee and an exclusive "battle damaged" 2009 Camaro Concept Bumblebee. Even though the 2009 figure is supposed to represent Bumblebee's damaged state as he appeared during the final battle in the movie, oddly enough the "damage" paint decos do not appear to extend to his legs, restricting themselves to his upper torso and car roof/door parts. Maybe they didn't bother because they thought you'd take them off like in the movie. Go figure.

:The Classic Camaro Bumblebee toy included in this package features the same "fixed" Automorph gimmick also found on the version included in the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack. In addition, the Automorph button on the hood ''finally'' sports the painted pinstripes that had been missing on ''all'' previous releases of the mold.

*'''Bumblebee and Optimus Prime''' (Argos exclusive two-pack, UK 2007)

: A two-pack, exclusively available at Argos stores in the United Kingdom, which contains an unchanged Voyager-class [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and an equally unchanged Deluxe-class Concept Camaro Bumblebee.

[[Image:Movie ScreenBattles CaptureofBB.jpg|right|250px|thumb|You'll never take me alive!]]
*'''Capture of Bumblebee''' (Screen Battles diorama pack, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-04'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes a [[Redeco|redecoed]] Camaro Concept Deluxe-class Bumblebee featuring a more accurate gray color scheme for his robot mode parts and a silver-painted face, Autobot symbol and toes. Additionally, a new red Autobot symbol is placed on his forehead, while his translucent parts are now a greener blue. The pack also comes with non-posable figurines of [[Sector Seven]] agent [[Reggie Simmons]] and two Sector Seven soldiers; one carrying a cryo-freezing cannon and one carrying a grenade launcher.

: This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the scene in which Bumblebee is captured by Sector Seven forces.

:According to details listed in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this pack was originally supposed to feature "ice soldiers" (plural), in addition to an "S7 agent" and an "S7 soldier". Apparently budget ultimately only allowed for one. The grenade launcher-wielding S7 soldier also looks conspicuously like [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]] colored as a Sector Seven soldier (it's possible that the figure had originally been intended for the Screen Battles "Desert Attack" pack with [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]]).

*'''All Spark-Enhanced Bumblebee''' (Target Exclusive Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This Target exclusive features the Deluxe Class Bumblebee in unique cylindrical packaging, with the only difference from his standard release being that key robot mode parts are highlighted by the slavish 'All Spark Blue' color for no other reason than [[to sell toys]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Deluxe StealthBumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|Bumblebee, as he appears in the Bizarro World.]]
*'''Stealth Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: Stealth Bumblebee is an extensive redeco and minor retool of the Deluxe class 2009 Camaro Bumblebee toy. The redeco itself is unusual in that the yellow parts are still cast in yellow plastic, but painted black. Other color differences include changing the robot mode body parts from black to gray and adding bright blue ''AllSpark Power'' decos.

:The head has also been retooled to reflect Bumblebee's 'battle mask' as seen in the Movie. The "mask" does not flip up to reveal his head. Bummer.

*'''Bumblebee''' ("Premium Series" Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-22'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

:This [[redeco]] of the Deluxe-class Concept Camaro toy features a similar deco as the Screen Battles version in terms of plastic colours, but replaces the head sculpt with the "battle mask" sculpt previously used for Stealth Bumblebee. All of his outer car body panels have been coated in a metallic yellow paint job.

{{-}}
*'''Legacy of Bumblebee''' (Deluxe class multi-pack, 2008)

:A Walmart [[exclusive]] three pack, the ''Legacy of Bumblebee'' collector's set comes with [[Bumblebee (G1)|''Classics'']], Movie Deluxe Concept Camaro ([[Premium Series]]) and ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]]'' [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]] figures. While the ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' Bumblebees are identical to their original, single carded releases, the ''Classics'' Bumblebee has been redecoed to more closely resemble his ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' counterparts, changing his white stripes to black, and his grey/silver plastic to yellow, similarly to ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Bumble.

====Screen Battles====
[[Image:Movie ScreenBattles FinalStand1.jpg|right|250px|thumb|"Half a bee, philosophically/ Must, ipso facto, half not be./ But half the bee has got to be/ Vis-a-vis, its entity. D'you see?"]]
*'''Final Stand''' (Screen Battles, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-02'''

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes with an altered [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] toy and a posable, non-transforming, battle-damaged Bumblebee figure very similar to the ''Robot Replicas'' toy, yet surprisingly utilizing none of the same parts despite being on an identical scale. This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the battle in Mission City.

:Although entirely comprised of original sculpting, such as the gimpy leg-stumps, the Bumblebee figure oddly does not feature the character's distinctive car door "wings" on his back. However, keen [[Kitbashing|customisers]] can easily rectify this by slicing the "Robot Replicas" version's wings off and whittling their connecting plastic into simple posts that very handily plug into large holes in the tires on Final Stand 'Bee's back. In fact, these holes almost seem designed to accommodate a missing part. (Considering how all the other Screen Battles sets were apparently originally intended to feature more, or at least more elaborate, accessory figures based on their entries in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this seems indeed very plausible.)

{{-}}
====Ultimate====
[[Image:Ultimate Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|All those extras and they couldn't make me more accurate than the deluxe class toy.]]
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee''' (Ultimate, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

: Similar in appearance to the second Deluxe-class Bumblebee toy, albeit much larger and more complex, the 'Ultimate' version of Bumblebee also transforms into the 2009 concept Camaro. The toy features animatronic movement in robot mode (flapping wings, moving arms and a rotating head) and light-up eyes and headlights, activated by the movement or sounds made by the person playing with the toy, or by pressing his buttons, which also activate an obscene number of interactive electronic sound effects. Oddly enough, despite being mute for most of the movie, Bumblebee has a wide range of phrases (Which don't even sound like him). His chest button yields various phrases and a new version of the ''Transformers'' theme tune, while a button on his side produces blaster noises, more speech, and musical samples, including four different ones from Devo's "Whip It." This button also causes the toy to raise its cannon-arm and automatically fire a missile. Playing with the toy by moving it will make him repeat various phrases and samples activated by other features, as well as crashing battle noises, but when he is left idle, more unique phrases will be uttered inquiring where everyone has gone, as well as radio snippets to the same effect, before the toy eventually deactivates. Pressing any button will bring him back online with a cheerful shout.

: Transforming the toy between modes is accompanied by the classic transformation noise, and if left unattended between modes, it will make stalling engine noises, car horn and a car alarm sounds. Once in car mode, new electronics are unlocked, beginning with the sound of an engine starting up. The chest button now activates the car's horn, and rolling the figure along will create an accelerating noise that increases the faster the toy is moved. More unique musical snippets will play as the car rolls along; when the rolling stops, brake lights activate and the tires screech. Yet more sounds are produced when Bumblebee is rolled backwards, and the car mode also features different crashing battle noises to the robot mode.

: All of the toy's features can be turned off by a switch, and it has an additional "Try Me" mode which allows you to hear various sounds from the toy's various functions just by pressing the chest button.

: The toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure made the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block resting on Bumblebee's chest. In reality, it splits up into five separate pieces to fold and collapse into a more movie-like appearance.

: In the holiday season, Wal-Mart carried an exclusive "Bonus Buy" version of the toy, which had the Deluxe [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] and [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] toys added as freebies. Costco also carried an exclusive version, with the 3" [[Titanium Series]] version of Bumblebee packed in. However, it did not include the display stand.

{{-}}
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee bonus pack''' (Costco exclusive two-pack, 2007)

====Fast Action Battlers====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviefab.jpg|right|250px|thumb|]]
*'''Plasma Punch Bumblebee''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Projectile

:[[Fast Action Battler|Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a considerably simpler transformation than the standard deluxe toy, intended for the slightly younger set. His main "gimmick" is a spring-loaded missile launcher in his right arm. As is also the case with Ultimate Bumblebee, the toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure make the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block. In reality, the chest/bumper consists of two rotating pieces which can pivot down so as to more accurately emulate the appearance in the movie.

:A [[repaint]] of Plasma Punch Bumblebee. It transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a simple transformation. The right arm is a spring loaded missile launcher. As is also the case with the original [[Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee, the hood is presented as a solid brick.

====Cyber Slammers toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviecyberslammer.jpg|right|250px|thumb|A Battlecharger for the new millennium.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Classic Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

: Cyber Slammers Bumblebee is an amazingly cute 1976 Camaro that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot buddy of human characters. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along for a while, then snaps back up into robot mode.

: This toy was also made available during the 2007 holiday season as a freebie "Bonus Buy" packaged with Cyber Stompin' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] at Wal-Mart stores.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee CamaroConcept CyberSlammer.jpg|right|250px|thumb|And so, Bumblebee rejoins the Throttlebots.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Concept Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

:The second [[Cyber Slammers]] Bumblebee figure toy transforms into a Concept Camaro and shares no parts with the previous Cyber Slammers Bumblebee figure. Like all Cyber Slammers, the toy features motorized action. When you push down on the car, it zooms forward, then pops up into robot mode! Sure to please the toddler you brought with you to the PG-13 movie. Like most Cyber Slammers, Bumblebee manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

: This toy was later redecoed into [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

{{-}}
====Trans-Scanning====
[[Image:Movie TranScanning Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|250px|thumb|whY mY SHoUlDeRs hUrT?(Now I know how Hot Shot feels)]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TS-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Display stand

: [[Trans-scan|Trans-scanning]] Bumblebee is a Japanese-exclusive figure with many interchangeable parts. At its most basic, the figure is a spindly skeleton referred to as a "Core Body". To this skeleton, two sets of armor pieces can be attached to create one of two forms for Bumblebee: his [[protoform]] mode or his Earth mode.

: The protoform mode consists of eight pieces of golden plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be manipulated in a manner that might charitably be called "transformation" into his meteor-like "entry mode," accomplished by doing little more than tucking the head out of sight and folding the chest back. This golden-and-grey lump can be mounted on a three-piece stand that comes with the figure, allowing you to display it in mid-plummet. Bumblebee's Earth mode, meanwhile, is made up of nineteen armor pieces (including a particularly large backpack) that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a Camaro Concept.

: Bumblebee also includes a pair of interchangeable, open-palmed hands that can be swapped out for the clenched fists that are in place in-package. The Core Body mold was re-used for the simultaneously released Trans-Scanning [[Optimus Prime (Movie) toys|Optimus Prime]] figure.

====Cyber Stompin' robots====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviecyberstompin.jpg|right|150px|thumb|These boots were made for—you know the rest.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Cyber Stompin' Robots, 2007)

: [[Cyber Stompin' Robots]] Bee is a large electronic action figure, featuring a rather cutified design. He's got electronic lights and sounds up the whazzoo and fires missiles and a fist. He totally plays the original theme song.

: Later in the year, Wal-Mart stores sold this toy as a "Bonus Buy" item, which came with a free Cyber Slammer [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] attached to the box back.

{{-}}
====Robot Replicas====
[[Image:Movie RobotReplica Bumblebee.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Heli-pack not included]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Robot Replicas, 2007)

: As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] sub-line, this version of concept-Camaro Bumblebee is a non-transforming action figure that hews very close to the movie's CGI model. It features joints similar to the [[Revoltech]] toys, plus his right forearm can be replaced with his blaster-arm (or any other arm attachments from other Robot Replicas, which could lead to some fun Frankensteins). For some reason, he's closer to orange than his normal yellow.

{{-}}

====Micro IR Transformers Cars====
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee MircroIR.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Drives and shoots!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2007)

: Made by [[RadioShack]] under license from [[Hasbro]] and [[Dreamworks]]. The three-function infrared remote, in Bumblebee's signature colors, gives you control of the car with forward and reverse turn movement. More than just a car styled after the Movie character, the car also transforms to robot mode. The top of the gun-shaped IR remote's barrel serves as a display stand. The tip of the gun barrel can also be unscrewed, revealing a pen (!) inside.

: This Bumblebee is a three-inch tall painted mini-statue of his 1976 Camaro body form. He features die-cast in his torso and thighs, and he has swivel joints at the shoulders, head and waist. Oh, and he comes with a Movie-style Autobot logo base to stand on.

: This item was also packed in with Ultimate Bumblebee as a Costco-exclusive set.

**''Japanese ID number:''

:''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends class Bumblebee is based upon the updated Camaro Concept featured in the movie (unlike the 2007 Legends class Bumblebee which was based on the 1976 Camaro). Compared to the previous Movie Legends, he has better, more accurate detailing and proportions (or as accurate as can be obtained at this [[pricepoint]]).

The toy consists of a a blaster attached to Bumblebee's (hollow) hand which a child can slip their own hand inside like a glove and wield. Pulling the trigger causes the toy to emit transformation sounds, allowing the user to transform the toy weapon from laser blaster mode to plasma cannon mode, by pulling the handle on the back. Laser blaster mode features laser pulse sounds and a "laser flare beam" (lights), while the plasma cannon mode has "plasma pulse lights" and explosion sounds.
