The '''''Robots in Disguise''''' '''continuity family''' encompasses all of the fiction produced under the umbrella of the 2001 ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' franchise, which chiefly ran from 2001 to 2002 in the United States. At its core is the 39-episode [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|cartoon]] imported from [[Japan]], which tells the story of [[Koji Onishi]] as he joins [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Optimus Prime]] and the [[Autobot]]s to protect Earth from [[Megatron (RID)|Megatron]].

In the worlds of ''Robots in Disguise'', the [[Decepticon]]s as they are traditionally known do not exist, and the Autobots instead battle the [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]]s: a faction of malevolent (though somewhat incompetent) Cybertronians with [[beast mode]]s. The Decepticons of these realities are merely a specific subgroup of Predacons who possess vehicle-based alternate modes. The ''Robots in Disguise'' franchise began as a stopgap "filler" franchise meant to buy time between the end of ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Machines]]'' and the beginning of ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'', and as a result its characters and concepts occupy a complex, if not outright bizarre, place in the ''Transformers'' mythos and even on this very wiki (but keep reading for more on that).

In the decades since, [[Hasbro]] has largely forgotten about ''Robots in Disguise''; it has its fans, however, and its comparative obscurity allowed works like [[Ask Vector Prime]] greater leeway to mess around in the margins of the universe and consolidate a number of obscure side universes under the ''Robots in Disguise'' banner.

Within the fictional ''Transformers'' [[multiverse]], the [[Transcendent Technomorph|TransTech]] classify every ''Robots in Disguise'' continuity as a part of the "[[Viron]]" [[universal stream|universal cluster]].

==Conceptual history==
[[File:CarRobots poster.jpg|thumb|left|200px|The Japanese-original ''Car Robots'' cartoon was rebranded in the West as ''Robots in Disguise'', the first full reboot in the [[Transformers brand|''Transformers'' brand]].]]
The ''Robots in Disguise'' continuity family has its origins in the ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|Transformers: Car Robots]]'' cartoon. First broadcast on Japanese television in [[2000]], ''Car Robots'' marked the final installment of a run of five ''Transformers'' cartoons that had aired consecutively in Japan since [[1997]], beginning with the Japanese broadcast of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)#Beast Wars: Super Lifeform Transformers|Beast Wars]]'' and continuing with ''[[Beast Wars II: Super Lifeform Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars II]]'', ''[[Super Lifeform Transformers: Beast Wars Neo (cartoon)|Beast Wars Neo]]'', ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)#Super Lifeform Transformers: Beast Wars Metals|Beast Wars Metals]]'', and finally capped off by ''Car Robots''. However, while it was meant to be set in the same world as all of the shows that came before it, ''Car Robots'' initially presented itself as a largely standalone series. As a result, most of the fandom came to view ''Car Robots'' as a sort of continuity reboot, separate from its predecessors instead of connected to them.

While more references to past series (meant to tie ''Car Robots'' back to what all had come before) were introduced later in the series' run, these little references were insufficient in fully changing the fandom's majority perception of ''Car Robots'' being a reboot. Thus, when the series was imported over to the West by Hasbro, this perception paved the way for how ''Car Robots'' was presented in the Western World. Rebranded as ''Robots in Disguise'', the English version went all-in on fully embracing the reboot notion. Characters were given different names in the English version, with new leaders [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Fire Convoy]] and [[Megatron (RID)|Gigatron]] reinterpreted as new versions of [[Optimus Prime (disambiguation)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Megatron (disambiguation)|Megatron]], respectively.

Several characters likewise received familiar names from Generation 1, and some of them were even reimagined as new versions of familiar Generation 1 characters (like [[Prowl (RID)|Prowl]], [[Ironhide (RID)|Ironhide]], [[Mirage (RID)|Mirage]] and [[Ultra Magnus (RID)|Ultra Magnus]]). Other characters were instead given wholly original names that were uniquely their own (like [[Side Burn (RID)|Side Burn]], [[Sky-Byte (RID)|Sky-Byte]], [[Dark Scream]], and [[Ruination (RID)|Ruination]]). Episode scripts were rewritten to make ''Robots in Disguise'' completely incompatible with either the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1 cartoon]] or the [[Marvel Comics continuity]]. While additional references to Generation 1, ''Beast Wars'', and ''Beast Machines'' were added into the English dub's scripts, they were added in ways that tended to make ''Robots in Disguise'' even ''less'' compatible with any previous series.

Following the show's conclusion in the West, the series' legacy went in radically different directions between Hasbro and Takara's markets. In Japan, Takara made multiple additions to the [[Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity]] in the mid-2000s that [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)#The continuity kerfuffle|''doubled down'' on emphasizing the original intended placement of ''Car Robots'']] as part of the [[Generation 1 continuity family]] (picking up the slack from the show's own lax efforts of making that clear). In the West, meanwhile, ''Robots in Disguise'' remained its own, distinctly non-G1 entity, unconnected to any [[continuity family]] to come before or after it. The first major acknowledgement of this outside the show came in the [[2002]] toy bio of [[Axer (G1)#Robots in Disguise (2001)|Axer]], a Hasbro-original addition to the ''Robots in Disguise'' toyline. Axer's bio insinuated that he was the very same [[Axer (G1)|Axer]] from Generation 1, who had joined the ''Robots in Disguise'' Decepticons after a mission into a black hole had—short of stating it outright—sent him across dimensions into a different universe.

[[File:Universe 3 Oracle Omega Prime.jpg|thumb|upright=1.55|In probably the most visually-explicit depiction of ''Robots in Disguise'' being an alternate dimension, [[Omega Prime]] steps into the [[Beast Wars timeline (3H)|G1/Beast Era world]] of ''[[Transformers: Universe (comic)|Transformers: Universe]]'', having been summoned there from his home reality.]]
Since then, while Hasbro proper has mostly left the series untouched and only called back to on rare occasion, Hasbro licensees have explored more of the world of ''Robots in Disguise'' and its offshoots, even creating a few new ones in the process. The first of these came from [[Dreamwave Productions]] in their ''[[20th Anniversary Transformers Summer Special|Transformers Summer Special]]'', which featured the ''Robots in Disguise'' comic story "[[Ultra Magnus...to the Rescue?]]", written and drawn to directly tie into the world of the cartoon. During the mid-2000s, [[3H Productions]]' ''[[Transformers: Universe (comic)|Transformers: Universe]]'' comic series began to really explore the concept of the ''Transformers'' [[multiverse]], using ''Robots in Disguise'' as one of several alternate universes whose native Transformer characters had crossed over to the comic's post-''Beast Machines'' setting.

A profile for ''Robots in Disguise'' Optimus Prime [[Viron 903.0 Beta|expanded on the cartoon's events after the final episode]], even bridging the gap between the cartoon and ''Universe'' by explaining how Optimus had crossed over into the [[Universe War]] from his home dimension. This carried over into [[Fun Publications]]' ''[[Transformers: Cybertron: Balancing Act|Balancing Act]]'' comics, with ''Robots in Disguise'' [[Omega Prime]] crossing over from the Universe War into the world of ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|Transformers: Cybertron]]'', teaming up with other dimension-hoppers like [[Vector Prime]] and [[Sentinel Maximus]]—the latter of whom originally hailed from the [[Beast Wars timeline (3H)|G1/Beast Era world]] of ''Universe'' but never knew Omega Prime since Omega himself originally came from a non-G1 universe.

Fun Publications would further create the multiversal hub world of [[Axiom Nexus]] in their ''[[Transformers: TransTech|TransTech]]'' series, in which several characters from across the multiverse would appear as dimensional travelers. ''Robots in Disguise'' characters who appeared in Axiom Nexus would be established by the tangentially-related ''[[Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac II|AllSpark Almanac II]]'' book (via hidden [[Ask Vector Prime]] text) to have originated from the "[[Viron]]" cluster of [[universal stream]]s. One such individual of note was the Predacon [[Sky-Byte (RID)#Ask Vector Prime|Sky-Byte]]—the undisputed breakout star of the ''Robots in Disguise'' cartoon—who went on to be a guest columnist in the Ask Vector Prime Facebook column, answering several questions written in by fans.

Ask Vector Prime itself also established a few more ''Robots in Disguise'' universes of note. One was the [[Viron 403.0 Beta|universe]] of the [[Dinobot (Dinobots)|Dinobots]] and the [[Destructicon (RID)|Destructicons]], bringing together various store-exclusive toys released in [[2003]]. The other was the "[[Viron 1103.12 Gamma|Spychanger universe]]", a world in which most of the cast had all downsized into [[Spychanger]] bodies, which was cobbled together from a few minor sources. Ask Vector Prime also declared the originally-standalone [[OTFCC 2004]] one-shot comic "[[Shell Game]]" to be a ''Robots in Disguise'' universe, and even told a lengthy epic story that served as an expansion to the Hasbro-original ''Robots in Disguise'' [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#Robots in Disguise (2001)|Air Attack Optimus Primal]] toy bio.

==Major continuities==
===Cartoon continuity===
[[File:RiD Cartoon Intro Title.JPG|thumb|250px|]]

{{main|Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)}}
* ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|Transformers: Robots in Disguise]]'' (2001-2002)
* ''[[Transformers: Universe (comic)|Transformers: Universe]]'' (2003-2004)
* "[[Ultra Magnus...to the Rescue?]]" (2004)
* "[[Transformers: Cybertron: Balancing Act]]" (2005)

''Car Robots'' was created in response to the continually-declining sales of [[TakaraTomy|Takara's]] ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]''-based toylines. As [[Hasbro]] moved into ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Machines]]'', Takara opted instead to start anew—and tap into nostalgia as well—by bringing back the traditional modern Earth vehicle heroes with the classic [[Autobot]] big red face [[insignia|faction symbol]]. However, the villains of the series did not follow suit; while "Destronger" leader "Gigatron" was an all-new toy mold, his lackeys were all [[redeco]]ed [[Transmetal 2]] molds that had been developed for ''Beast Wars'', and the team was given the [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] symbol as had the villains from the prior shows.

A year later, with ''Beast Machines'' sales slumping, Hasbro canned [[Transtech|its proposed ''Beast Machines'' sequel]] and went back to the drawing board with Takara to sketch out an entirely new take on the ''Transformers'' brand. That reinvention would eventually evolve into ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Transformers: Armada]]'', which roared onto shelves in mid-[[2002]]... but Hasbro wanted ''something'' to keep toys on shelves, and hastily ported over ''Car Robots'' to fill that gap. The ''Robots in Disguise'' cartoon debuted in September 2001, and follows the adventures of [[Koji Onishi]] as he joins forces with the Autobots to rescue [[Kenneth Onishi|his father]] from the clutches of the Predacons—a battle that leads to the discovery of the mighty [[Fortress Maximus (RID)|Fortress Maximus]] buried underneath [[Metro City]]. Despite a number of last-minute cuts, edits, and even a few outright banned episodes as a result of the {{w|September 11 attacks|September 11th terrorist attacks}}, ''Robots in Disguise'' performed reasonably well, but the impending release of the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]] pushed this "filler line" aside for good.

In 2004, [[Dreamwave Productions]] returned to the continuity with a [[Ultra Magnus...to the Rescue?|one-shot comic]] set roughly around the middle of the cartoon, to give readers a taste of what a full ''Robots in Disguise'' comic series might look like. Not too surprisingly, [[20th Anniversary Transformers Summer Special|the accompanying reader poll]] swung in favor of [[Transformers: Beast Wars — Shell Game|a ''Beast Wars'' miniseries]] instead—and Dreamwave itself went out of business at the start of the next year anyway! [[Ask Vector Prime]] would later position this short comic as its own universal stream, presumably closely related to that of the cartoon, inventing further events in that timeline and others to expand the so-called Viron cluster.

[[3H Productions]] also featured ''Robots in Disguise'' [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Ultra Magnus (RID)|Ultra Magnus]] as major characters in their ''[[Transformers: Universe (comic)|Transformers: Universe]]'' comic; in 2005, they guest-starred in [[Fun Publications]]' ''[[Transformers: Cybertron: Balancing Act|Balancing Act]]'' comic, where they crossed dimensions into the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family#Cartoon continuity|Unicron Trilogy cartoon universe]] to fight [[Nemesis Prime (Universe)|Nemesis Prime]].

==Minor continuities==
===Toy bios===
[[File:RIDtoy-Suprimal.jpg|thumb|right|200px]]

Although Hasbro imported ''Robots in Disguise'' as a cheap way to keep the brand alive, the franchise did well enough to garner a number of [[redeco]]es and even entirely new molds. Owing to the comparatively small size of the toyline, this phenomenon was somewhat more limited than previous outings, although a very high number of these toyline-exclusive characters and redecoes went on to feature in ''[[Transformers: Universe (comic)|Transformers: Universe]]''-related fiction. One notable bio had a time-travelling [[Optimus Primal (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity#The Protector|Optimus Primal]] serve as Optimus Prime's "spirit guide", a bizarre premise that [[Ask Vector Prime]] would elaborate on.

{{--}}

===Shell Game===
[[File:UltraTrionLoses.jpg|thumb|right|200px]]

* "[[Shell Game]]" (2004)

In [[2004]], [[3H Productions]] published "[[Shell Game]]" as part of the lead-in to [[OTFCC 2004]], a story set in a dystopian timeline where the tyrannical [[Megazarak (Universe)|Megazarak]] had killed his universe's Optimus Prime and conquered Cybertron. The short story freely mixes characters and concepts from both ''Robots in Disguise'' and the [[Generation 1 continuity family]] (the pitch for "Shell Game" being that it was "''Generation 3''"); in 2015, [[Ask Vector Prime]] would establish that this universe was part of the ''Robots in Disguise'' continuity family.

{{--}}

===Spychanger continuity===
[[File:Optimusprimelittleyellowdifferent.jpg|thumb|right|200px]]

* "[[Worlds Collide, Part 4 of 4]]" (2003)
* "[[Voice Actor Drama]]" (2004)
* [[Ask Vector Prime]] (2015)

In 2015, [[Ask Vector Prime]] stitched together another amalgamated timeline based on a number of different sources. In this timeline, the Autobots on Earth all downsized into energy-efficient [[Spychanger]]s after an accident contaminated all of Earth's [[energon]]. Notably, the Optimus Prime and [[Scourge (RID)|Scourge]] of this universe are both female.

{{--}}

===Dinobots versus Destructicons===
[[File:WM-Grimlock-card.jpg|thumb|right|200px]]

* [[Ask Vector Prime]] (2015)

In [[2003]], just after ''Robots in Disguise'' had wrapped up in favor of ''Armada'', Hasbro released several U.S.-exclusive toys with the ''Robots in Disguise'' title in ''Armada''-style packaging. Concurrently, Hasbro also released the small ''[[Transformers: Dinobots]]'' toyline. None of the packages had [[bio]]s, leaving it ambiguous where or how they might fit into any one continuity. In 2015, Ask Vector Prime tossed these misfits into an original ''Robots in Disguise'' universe based loosely on, but not related to, the "Shell Game" reality. This reality seems to lack any true Autobots, Predacons, or Decepticons in favor of the Dinobots versus the Destructicons.

Lost media

2025-09-08T13:19:09Z

ThatGuy79: /* Online content */ Extra "first"

'''Lost media''' is a term for media that is no longer available to the public or has been completely lost or destroyed over time. Some reasons for this can include limited distribution of the original material, copyright disputes regarding its publication, the shutdown of the service through which it was originally hosted, or sometimes just an outright loss of all available copies.

As a {{#expr: {{CURRENTYEAR}}-1984}}-year-old franchise covering just about every possible medium—much of it exclusive to different regions separated by linguistic barriers—it is inevitable that there's a staggering amount of lost ''Transformers'' media: thus, the content in this page is hardly comprehensive, and there's almost certainly more beyond what's listed here.

{{stub|Other, as-of-now undocumented, instances of ''Transformers'' lost media}}

==Lost ''Transformers'' media==
===Film===
*The IMAX edition of ''[[Transformers (film)|Transformers]]'' (2007) features two minutes of additional footage. This footage has never been included in any home release.
*At the [[Transformers Hall of Fame/2011|2011]] [[Transformers Hall of Fame]] ceremony, in lieu of any cartoon or movie footage to play as a music video for fan nominee [[Erector (G1)|Erector]], a short mockumentary about Erector was played instead. This very tongue-in-cheek video gave a fictitious account of Erector's long history with the [[Transformers brand|''Transformers'' brand]], with many people interviewed talking about how much the character meant to them and how, time and again, he had nearly made it into the next big piece of ''Transformers'' media only to be cut out at the last second (none of which was at all true, of course). This short film has never seen the light of day since its original screening. However, a few pieces of "concept art" have since surfaced online, including a ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]''-themed Erector who transforms into a beaver.

===Cartoon===

* Various dubs of different ''Transformers'' cartoons have been partially lost:
** The European French dubs of 16 episodes of the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original cartoon]] have been lost, mainly in season 3.
** The Canadian French dubs of 33 episodes of the original cartoon have been lost, mainly in season 1.
** Three quarters of the French dubs of the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]] have been lost. Around 20 episodes of ''[[Transformers: Armada (cartoon)|Armada]]'' and 10 episodes of ''[[Transformers: Energon (cartoon)|Energon]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|Cybertron]]'' have been released on DVD. According to several voice actors from the shows and to a few fans, all the episodes have been dubbed and broadcast at the time. Findings of [[Open Fire!|two]] [[Titans|late]] episodes of ''Energon'' and ''Cybertron'' confirms that the series have been entirely dubbed.

*[[Transformers Online (2017 video game)|''Transformers Online'' (2017)]] was an online team shooter based on [[Generation 1]] and the [[live-action film series]] developed for the Chinese market. The game spent around 2 1/2 years in open beta before being shut down in February 2020, leaving it fully unplayable.
*''[[Transformers: Heavy Metal]]'' was a mobile game that was launched in a beta form in a handful of countries starting in June 2021, only to be shut down a little over a year later in August 2022 and is no longer playable.

===Comics===
*A promotional [[Transformers: BotBots (franchise)|BotBots]] [[Transformers BotBots Adventure|comic book]] was released exclusively to 40 [[South Africa]] influencers with children in [[2019]]. Each comic was printed to feature the children of the influencer interacting with the BotBots at night in the [[Mall (BotBots)|mall]]. While some pages have been recovered by fans, so far no complete scans of it have been found.

*While many videos on [[SectorSeven.org]] (the main website for the [[Sector Seven (game)|Sector Seven ARG]]) have been reposted elsewhere, the website itself has since gone offline and with it a large portion of its content. The landing page can still be accessed through the Wayback Machine, but only its first revealed password ('takara83') seems to work.
*In early [[2007]], in conjunction with their [[Japanese Generation 1 cartoon timeline|concerted efforts to organize]] the sprawling [[Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity]], [[TakaraTomy]] published a [http://www.takaratomy.co.jp/products/TF/table.html timeline on their main ''Transformers'' website] that charted the full chronology of the Japanese G1 and Japanese Unicron Trilogy continuities. In the years since, however, this timeline had been removed from Takara's website and all attempts to retrieve and archive its contents have been met with failure, due to said contents having been made using Adobe Flash software, which was discontinued in [[2020]], and the Flash files themselves being long gone.
*''[[My Transformers: Rescue Bots Adventure]]'' is an interactive [[multipath adventure]] game that served as a tie-in with the ''[[Transformers: Rescue Bots (cartoon)|Rescue Bots]]'' cartoon. It combined brand new original footage and dialogue with preexisting footage recycled from the series itself, and allowed the viewer to engage with the story by choosing different options of actions for the characters to perform in both fire-themed and water-themed rescue missions. Each option would lead to a different YouTube video that continued the story in each path taken. All of the videos for this adventure were originally uploaded to YouTube in [[August]] [[2017]] in the time between the end of the TV series and the start of its sequel, ''[[Transformers: Rescue Bots Academy (cartoon)|Rescue Bots Academy]]''. However, the videos were all taken down at some point afterward, with only the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7fC3cgiMo4 first part] reuploaded to a new channel in [[October]], but without the in-video links that would lead to the next parts of the adventure. As of {{CURRENTYEAR}}, all that remains of this game are the aforementioned first video and its original [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7fC3cgiMo4 announcement trailer].
*[[YTV]] released a browser game in [[2006]] to tie into [[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|Transformers: Cybertron]], named ''Cyber Planet Key Chase''. It was only briefly available before being taken down some time in [[2007]]. The [https://web.archive.org/web/20061105194103/https://www.ytv.com/promos/transformers06/game.asp page where it would be played] was saved on the Wayback Machine, but the files for the game itself were not.

===Audio===
*The ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (franchise)#Fight.21 Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Operation Combination|Operation Combination]]'' [[Fight!_Super_Robot_Lifeform_Transformers:_Operation_Combination_(telephone_audio_adventure)|Telephone Audio Adventure]]s were brief recorded messages available to [[Japan]]ese fans in [[1992]], and have not subsequently been located.
*While the first 37 episodes of the [[Transformers: Kiss Players (radio drama)|''Kiss Players'' radio drama]] were collected and released on CD, episodes 38–51 have remained unavailable since their original broadcast from [[December]] [[2006]] to [[March]] [[2007]].

===Commercials===
* It's been reported that the Mini-Vehicle variants from [[Peru|Peruvian]] manufacturer [[Lynsa]] got their own toy commercial, even featuring a jingle with lyrics that, according to one account, would be sung as something roughly translating to ''"Transformers, Transformers, they are not only what they seem to be, they are much more action!''" <ref>[http://www.tf-1.com/articles/mini_frame.php?art=peru Peruvian Minibots] at TF-1.com</ref> from the original Peruvian Spanish. Footage of this commercial has never been found.

==Recovered ''Transformers'' media==
Some formerly lost ''Transformers'' media has since been recovered or restored, often through extensive fan efforts.

===Cartoon===

*The fourth episode of the [[2001]] [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon)|''Robots in Disguise'' cartoon]], "[[Spychangers to the Rescue]]", originally aired on American television mere days after the [[September 11]] terrorist attack. Due to increased sensitivities brought about by said attack, the episode had to be temporally removed from broadcast rotation and re-edited to change the episode's subject from the potential danger of an [[Plutonium Energy Generator|energy generator]] exploding to said generator cracking open and releasing a [[zirconium gas|corrosive gas]] instead. Additionally, certain scenes of battle and panic from the original broadcast version were also removed for the later rebroadcast version. When the series released on DVD in the [[United Kingdom]], it was the later rebroadcast edit of the episode that was included, while the original broadcast edit has never seen official release. For over a decade, the original edit of the episode was considered lost until a VHS recording of it was uploaded to [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivwA_lhWTs8 YouTube on November 15, 2013].
*Starting from [[Unicron Perishes|episode 38]], the Latin American-Spanish dub of all ''[[Transformers: Energon (cartoon)|Transformers: Energon]]'' episodes was lost for several years. In [[November]] [[2020]], the Facebook page ''Transformers The Golden Age'', along with the group ''Transformers: Ñ Posteo'', launched a search to find the missing episodes. As a result, seven were recovered. Later, between [[June]] [[2021]] and [[August]] [[2022]], the remaining episodes were recovered thanks to a rebroadcast of the series by Canal 9 in Nicaragua.
*A total of 16 animated shorts were produced during the first season ''[[Transformers Animated (cartoon)|Transformers Animated]]'', but only 14 of them were publicly released online. The remaining two, "[[Logo (Animated)|Logo]]" and "[[Starscream's Fantasy]]", were screened during [[BotCon 2009]] and [[BotCon 2012]], but otherwise never made available in any other format. It wasn't until 2022 when, after a sudden surge of interest and fan requests, [[Marty Isenberg]] allowed the two shorts to be published online unofficially.

===Video games===
*The [[Hoover Dam]] exterior level for the PC and home consoles version of 2007's [[Transformers The Game (console)|''Transformers The Game'']] was long assumed to be lost, until it was successfully datamined from the Wii version during 2018 in a state surprisingly not too far from completion. A more unfinished version of the level was also later discovered in the PS3 port.
*''[[Transformers Battle Universe]]'' had been rendered unplayable since 2009 as a result of the online service it relied on shutting down, but it was again restored into a playable state by fans in 2017.

===Online content===
*2007 marked a turning point in the [[Transformers brand|''Transformers'' brand]] with the release of the [[Transformers (film)|first live-action movie]]. With the sudden newfound interest in the brand, TakaraTomy created a [http://web.archive.org/web/20100430185249/http://www.takaratomy.co.jp/products/TF/bible/index.html new website] called "[[World of the Transformers]]", which gave an overview of ''Transformers'' lore and its many different facets. However, much of this website's content was made using Adobe Flash software, and when the site closed down some years later, its contents were thought to be lost for good once Flash was discontinued in 2020. However, many of the site's original Flash files were actually retrievable via web archiving software, and so a recreation of its contents (complete with a full English translation) has been made and kept intact '''[[Source:World of the Transformers|here]]'''.

Transformers Animated (toyline)

2025-09-07T20:48:18Z

ThatGuy79: /* Post-Animated releases */

{{Nav-Animated}}
[[File:TFAnimated Voyager EarthOptimusPrime toy.jpg|upright=2.66|thumb|Putting the "cool" in "[[Playskool]]".]]

The '''''Transformers Animated''''' toyline was a radical departure from previous ''Transformers'' lines. It merged the more expressive design style of the [[Transformers Animated (cartoon)|accompanying cartoon]] with the advanced engineering that had been evolving over the course of the line to produce a series quite unlike anything seen before (or since).

Hasbro, citing the strength of the [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|movie toyline]], postponed the official release of the ''Animated'' toyline to [[June 22]], 2008 in the US, letting the cartoon get kids (and collectors) hungry for toys of the on-screen characters. However, some toys began showing up at retailers in the Cincinnati area to coincide with [[BotCon 2008|BotCon]], followed by wider releases in Canada in May and the U.S. shortly thereafter.

{{TOCclear}}

==Overview==
Unlike the [[franchises]] immediately before it, ''Animated'' has no overarching, line-wide extra play [[gimmick]], such as [[Mini-Con]]s or [[Cyber Planet Key]]s. Rather, the line got back to basics, as transforming ''is'' the gimmick, and the toys have other special features unique and appropriate to the character (such as [[Blitzwing (Animated)#Animated|triple-changing]] or [[Ratchet (Animated)#Deluxe Class|interchangeable tools]]). Like the concurrent [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|live-action film toyline]], there was a heavy focus on keeping the small core cast —especially the Autobots— available at multiple price points and complexities to get them in as many kids' hands as possible.

[[File:Ani-toy WreckGar.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1|Wreck-Gar]]

The line's other primary feature is in its synergy with the accompanying cartoon. Where the previous two decades of ''Transformers'' had the toys made first then translated to media, and the movie toyline was tasked with creating toys of intricately-complex characters that were not designed to be toys, the ''Animated'' line was a previously-unprecedented level of collaboration between toymaker and media-maker. Hasbro designers, the [[Cartoon Network]] design team, and [[TakaraTomy]] engineers all worked closely together out of the gate to make sure toy and show-character were as close as possible, to the point where even the characters' transformation schemes were consistent between 2D media and 3D toy (such as [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]]'s breakdancing-like spin-kick from car to robot mode).

This design consistency translated into sculpts with more swooping arcs and softer edges, following head character designer [[Derrick J. Wyatt|Derrick Wyatt]]'s love of "rounded squares and squared rounds"... with some obvious concessions for physics (wheels, for example, kind of ''had'' to be nigh-perfect circles to function). Default stances leaned towards the superheroic, with bulky chests jutting out with broad shoulders and large arms. The color choices (at least for the Hasbro line) were also carefully chosen so the toys would have a more "matte" finish rather than the shinier plastic of past lines, making them look even more like cel-animated characters come to life. Character faces were given much more expression than the default "neutral" non-expression of most ''Transformers'' lines, with large eyes, smirks, snarls and more as appropriate to the general attitude of the character.

Of course, such a radical shift in style brought its [[Ruined FOREVER|share of detractors]], especially given that the movie had its own out-there interpretation of the robots in disguise... despite the existence of a currently-running [[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|older-fan-aimed toyline dedicated to recreating Generation 1 characters in modern forms]].

The line was a success, bolstered by its Cartoon Network collaboration. However, it was ultimately cut short, with many toys in the prototype stage intended to tie in with the show's fourth season. A combination of the runaway success of the movie line, mixed with (reported) issues between Hasbro and Cartoon Network —with Hasbro seemingly keen to [[Hub Network|have its own media outlet it had more control over]]— brought the line to an end.

==TakaraTomy ''Animated'' toyline==
[[File:TransformersAnimatedJPLogo01.jpg|left|300px]]

Beginning in 2010, [[TakaraTomy]]'s release of the ''Animated'' toy line consists of most of the same toys released in Western markets by [[Hasbro]]. Early waves gave the toys extremely shiny metallic paintjobs that actually made them ''less'' screen-accurate (and not necessarily more intricate paintjobs at that), but later waves eventually dropped that in favor of the usual assortment of small paint operation changes... though some of those changes ''did'' involve shiny paint, so...

'''B-127''' works in waste management in the lower levels of [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]], and has done so for a long time. So long that he hasn't spoken to anyone else in a while, and the isolation's kind of getting to him—he's built himself a group of imaginary friends to keep him company, and he talks way, ''way'' too much to fill the silence. Even when he's unconscious. ''Especially'' when he's unconscious.

His name is kind of clunky, so he's been trying out a few nicknames, like '''Badassatron''';<ref>...which is pronounced '''''BADASSATRONNN'''''.</ref> for the most part, people just call him '''B'''.

Maybe he'll [[Bumblebee (disambiguation)|figure out something better]] eventually.

==Fiction==
===''One'' film===
{{voiceactor|[[Keegan-Michael Key]] (English), [[Ryōhei Kimura]] (Japanese)|[[Dennis Schmidt-Foß]] (German, first trailer), [[Phil Laude]] (German, second trailer), [[Philippe Lacheau]] (European French), [[Julien Allouf]] (European French, first trailer), [[Patrick Emmanuel Abellard]] (Canadian French), [[Juca Viapri]] (Latin-American Spanish, main dub), [[Idzi Dutkiewicz Sánchez]] (Latin American-Spanish, alternate dub), [[David Jenner]] (Spain Spanish), [[Andrea Lavagnino]] (Italian), [[Juha Viitala]] (Finnish), [[Michał Klawiter]] (Polish), [[Myeong-jun Kim]] (Korean), [[Roman Molodiy]] (Ukrainian), [[Marcus Eni]] (Brazilian Portuguese)}}

For as long as he could remember, B-127 worked in waste management on sublevel 50. Deprived of anyone to talk to and left with only his garbage statues for company, B was overjoyed when [[Optimus Prime (One)|Orion Pax]] and [[Megatron (One)|D-16]] were thrown down to waste management by [[Darkwing (One)|Darkwing]] and proceeded to introduce them to his friends: EP-508, A-A-Tron, and [[Steve (One)|Steve]] (who is foreign). Orion accidentally beheaded Steve and discovered a beacon from the Quintesson war, broadcasting a message from [[Alpha Trion]] and giving coordinates on the possible location of the long-lost [[Matrix of Leadership]]. Deciding to investigate further, the trio climbed up the garbage chute and boarded an automated train headed for the surface. They were intercepted by [[Elita-1 (One)|Elita-1]], who headed for the front to report them to security. As the bots tussled, the train reached the surface and all four were thrown from it by Cybertron's shifting geology.

[[File:Transformers-One-B-127.jpg|left|280px|thumb|"Who are you calling Goldbug!?"]]

After a long journey full of nothing but B-127's babbling, the quartet arrived at an ancient cave containing the bodies of the Primes. Though the Matrix was nowhere to be found, Orion noticed that Alpha Trion's spark still flicked and revived him with one of B's energon cubes. Trion told them of how Cybertron's leader, [[Sentinel Prime (One)|Sentinel Prime]], was an imposter who had betrayed the Primes and made a deal with the Quintessons that allowed him to rule under their thumb. After giving them the transformation cogs of the fallen Primes, Trion told the four to leave while he held off Sentinel's trackers.

Forced to adapt very quickly to their new cogs, the group fought through Sentinel's forces to make it back to Iacon city and reveal the truth. However, they were caught by the former Cybertron [[High Guard]] whose leader, Starscream, demanded intelligence on Sentinel, believing them to be spies. D-16 remained defiant and seized control of the Guard from Starscream. It was then that Sentinel's enforcer, [[Airachnid (One)|Airachnid]], found them and attacked, taking B, D-16, and several Guard members to Sentinel's tower.

The false Prime revealed his intention to frame them as traitors and give them a public execution, but a siege led by Orion and Elita freed them. While D-16 attacked Sentinel, B, Orion, and Elita captured Airachnid and brought her to the broadcasting room, where B, ecstatic over his new battle mask and "knife hands" went a little overboard on the attack. Broadcasting Airachnid's memories and revealing the truth to the city, B and Elita watched in horror as a rage-filled D-16 turned on Orion, dropped him into Cybertron's core, executed Sentinel and renamed himself “Megatron” to the cheers of the High Guard.

B and Elita attempted to stop Megatron's rampage, but to no avail as they were no match for his powerful new form. Just then, Orion, reformatted by the Matrix into Optimus Prime, returned to the surface and defeated Megatron, banishing him and his followers from Iacon. Optimus, now the new ruler of Cybertron, stated that he would need B and Elita at his side, much to B's excitement. As Optimus used the power of the Matrix to make energon flow once more, B looked on as all the cogless miners were granted cogs and became fully autonomous “Autobots”, determined to defend Cybertron from all future threats.

Some time later, B went to see his old friends on sublevel 50 to share the tale of his adventure. After quickly putting Steve's head back on, B proceeded to show off his new knife hands, accidentally killing Steve (again) and A-A-Tron, to his horror. {{storylink|Transformers One (film)|One}}

He also features simpler engineering, with a big portion of the toy's budget being instead dedicated to a light-up chest gimmick activated by pressing his stomach. His arm blade and blaster can be used on either arm and combined to store on his robot back/vehicle roof.

:His paintjob is noticeably more gold-leaning (and in turn, more screen-accurate) than most other Bumblebees in the ''Transformers One'' mainline. Keeping in line with the "Energon Glow" theme of the figure, his wheels, lower arms, and car roof are all molded in transparent blue plastic.

:Released as part of the Prime Changers line, Bumblebee/B-127 transforms from a robot to Cybertronian sports car in 15 steps. His chest plate can be removed to reveal a non-removable transformation cog. The blaster only attaches to his left hand, and the arm blade only to right unless combined with the blaster. The combined form is used to store the accessories on his robot back and vehicle roof, though they can also be attached individually if you want one equipped but not the other. Due to his particular conversion scheme, he can replicate the "car with arms" form he took while attempting to transform for the first time. He has a 3 mm flight stand port on his backside, only accessible in robot mode.

:His dark gunmetal, bright silver, and slate blue paint applications use glittery paint, while his plastic is pearlescent.

:While he appears to have a design flaw preventing his ankle tilts from working, this appears to actually be intentional. The tilt is necessary to lock his feet into position in vehicle mode, but due to the squared off socket for the joint pin, the feet become mostly locked in place in robot mode.

:Bee is the odd man out of the Prime Changers, being the only one who isn't roughly in [[scale]] with the rest. While having roughly the same mass as the other figures, his head, feet, and legs are about half again as big due to him basically being stretched to match their size.

==Notes==
* Of all the main cast of ''Transformers One'', Bumblebee has the greatest connection to his [[live-action film series]] [[Bumblebee (Movie)|counterpart]]: his name being given as "B-127" is taken from ''[[Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee]]'', and his helmet design (with its large "cheeks" and movable "antennae") bears resemblance to his appearance in that film; additionally, his overly-talkative nature is a meta-gag about his "future" self being best known for not being able to speak. Conversely, his battle mask resembles his [[Bumblebee (G1)|Generation 1 counterpart]]'s [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Toys|original toy]].
*Despite the name being an alias used on most promotional material and toys, ''Bumblebee'' is never referred to as such in the film itself, presumably to avoid confusing audiences who [[Bumblebee (film)|already saw him receive that name on-screen]]. That, or Cybertronians don’t know what bees are yet.

ThatGuy79: Wrong "forgo"

{{featured}}
[[File:BW21 6 cvr RI Beastmodes.jpg|thumb|right|350px|Are you tired of being nice? Don't you just wanna go ape?]]

The [[Transformer]]s have taken on many [[alternate mode]]s over the years, but no group of Cybertronians are quite as distinct or unique as those who adopt '''beast modes'''. Broadly speaking, a Cybertronian with a beast mode possesses one or more forms partially or completely based on a biological lifeform: this might be a contemporary [[Earth]] creature, an extinct organism like a [[Dinosaur (dinosaur)|dinosaur]], some kind of [[alien]] monster, or something fantastical like a [[dragon]] or [[unicorn]]; in very rare cases, Cybertronians have even adopted plant or fungus-based alternate modes. Although the majority of beast mode Transformers change from humanoid robots into animals, several possess an animal form as their [[robot mode]] and instead transform into vehicles or other inanimate objects, and a [[Mutant (BW)|select few]] simply transform from one animal shape into another.

Most [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s with beast modes transform into oversized, blatantly mechanical creatures, and as a result forgo disguise in favor of combat utility when operating on planets like [[Earth]]. Their descendants, the [[Maximal]]s and [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]]s, will refine the technology by integrating organic material directly into their superstructures and gaining the ability to convincingly mimic organic creatures; in time, this synthesis may even evolve into a genuine [[technorganic]] symbiosis that bonds carbon and silicon on a cellular level. Not all Cybertronians understand this deeper significance, however, and in some realities beast Transformers have faced prejudice and even institutionalized discrimination against their unusual forms.

Transformers with beast modes are sometimes referred to as "'''beast-formers'''", a term that sometimes sees use to distinguish themselves from vehicular "standard-formers."

{{bigquote|Beast or 'bot, we're ''still'' the baddest!|[[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]]|"[[Call of the Wild]]"}}

==Conceptual history==
[[File:RavageRatbat.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4]]

Although the specific term "beast mode" only rose to prominence in the mid-1990s, animal-mode Cybertronians formed a part of the ''Transformers'' franchise from the very beginning. Although [[Ravage (G1)|Ravage]], [[Laserbeak (G1)|Laserbeak]], and [[Buzzsaw (G1)|Buzzsaw]] all appeared as [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]]'s minions in both the original [[The Transformers (cartoon)|cartoon]] and [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|comic]], the two works took their characterizations in radically different directions: while the Marvel comic hewed closer to [[Bob Budiansky]]'s profiles for the characters by depicting them as intelligent, fully articulate beings whom the other characters treated as equals, the cartoon (barring [[More than Meets the Eye, Part 3|one exception]]) depicted them as mindless, animalistic creatures. [[1985]] brought the first humanoid-to-animal Transformers in the form of the heroic [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobot]]s and evil [[Insecticon (G1)|Insecticons]], and by 1986 the floodgates had opened: in addition to new [[Mini-Cassette]] characters like [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]] and [[Overkill (G1)|Overkill]], other new beast characters included the [[Predacon (G1)|Predacon]]s, [[Sharkticon (species)|Sharkticon]]s, [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcon]]s, [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]], and [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]]. The [[Pretender]] toyline featured characters like [[Longtooth]] and [[Octopunch (G1)|Octopunch]], who disguised themselves as humanoid animals, while the [[Pretender Beast]]s became ordinary quadrupedal creatures. No serious attempts were made to distinguish these beast characters from their vehicular kin, although [[Call of the Primitives|one episode of the original ''Transformers'' cartoon]] dubbed them "[[Primitive]]s".

[[File:Cheetorbw.jpg|thumb|right]]

In 1996, the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' franchise brought the idea of beast Transformers to the fore, and in doing so took the traditional ''Transformers'' aesthetic in a radically new direction. The franchise introduced two new groups of Transformers, the heroic [[Maximal]]s and evil [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]]s, who all transformed into different kinds of animals; unlike the blocky, clearly mechanical animals of "[[The Transformers (franchise)|the original franchise]]", however, these new Cybertronians were sleek, ''{{w|Bio Booster Armor Guyver|Guyver}}''-style humanoids who all transformed into fully organic animals. The [[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|tie-in cartoon]] established that they'd adopted organic animal forms to protect their mechanical bodies from high amounts of [[energon radiation|radiation]] while stranded on a planet rich with [[energon]]. This cartoon also codified the phrase "beast mode" to describe these alternate modes; different episodes like "[[Call of the Wild]]" would, on occasion, highlight the unique challenges these biomechanical Cybertronians faced. The original ''Beast Wars'' cartoon did not ever give a specific explanation behind the origins of biomechanical beast mode technology, but multiple later sources, most prominently [[Dreamwave Productions|Dreamwave]]'s ''[[Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More than Meets the Eye]]'' guidebooks, have retroactively connected the upgrade to some combination of [[Pretender]], [[Powermaster]], and [[Micromaster]] technology. In terms of both design and storytelling conflict, '' [[Beast Machines: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Machines]] '' pushed the envelope even further by introducing "[[technorganic]]" Maximals that blended metal and flesh on the cellular level, and detailing their conflict against evil, purely-mechanical [[Vehicon (BM)|Vehicon]]s who transformed into ordinary machines. Subsequently, ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' turned the premise on its head by pitting its cast of heroic vehicle-mode Autobots against villainous beast-mode Predacons.

For the next few years, beast-formers faded into the background; although the [[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|''Armada'']] toyline included a number of [[redeco]]ed ''Beast Wars'' toys, and ''[[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|Energon]]'' featured both [[Scorponok (Energon)|a new version of Scorponok]] and an army of bestial [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]]s, it would be ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron]]'', that really brought the concept back into prominence when it introduced the "[[Jungle Planet (colony)|Jungle Planet]]", a world populated by Transformers who'd adapted to their rugged world by adopting animal forms.
This idea of beast-formers being something distinct from ordinary Cybertronians would carry over into the "[[Aligned continuity family|Aligned]]" continuity. Initially, ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (franchise)|War for Cybertron]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|Prime]]'' did not feature beast mode Cybertronians at all beyond the vaguely spider-themed [[Airachnid (Prime)|Airachnid]], but the ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' game would eventually feature both the [[Dinobot (FOC)|Dinobot]]s and [[Insecticon (G1)|Insecticon]]s in starring roles. Supposedly, new versions of the Maximals and Predacons would've appeared in the original pitch for ''Prime's'' third season,<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20160411162414/http://sunnybutte.tumblr.com/post/131384199723/hey-all-getting-a-lot-of-questions-about-those Fan report of panel]: "Actual Maximals and Predacons were set to appear on a revitalized Cybertron in season 3 (he described it as a 'taming the wild west' setting)</ref> but a new creative team taking the reins at Hasbro led to the introduction of the ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#Beast Hunters (2013)|Beast Hunters]]'' [[subline imprint]]; while this new imprint ''did'' feature a group of [[Predacon (Prime)|Predacon]]s, these new Predacons were ancient, [[dragon]]-like creatures from Cybertron's prehistory.

[[File:10OnyxPrime.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|That's not what we meant by "Activate beast mo--" oh wait, phew, that's just a leg.]]

After the end of ''Prime'', the ''[[Transformers: The Covenant of Primus|Covenant of Primus]]'' hardcover book expounded on the significance of [[Onyx Prime]], the first Cybertronian with a beast mode, and the role that he played in Cybertron's evolution and the development of the aforementioned Predacons. Perhaps most notably, the book also introduced a subgroup of Transformers called the "[[Arachnicon]]s" and heavily implied that Airachnid belonged to this specific Cybertronian subspecies. The sequel series, ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'', really ran with the idea by featuring dozens upon dozens of beast-themed Decepticons—anthropomorphic animals with with vehicle alternate modes like [[Steeljaw (RID)|Steeljaw]] and [[Bisk (RID)|Bisk]], humanoid Cybertronians who became animals like [[Filch]] or [[Scowl (RID)|Scowl]], and even a few animal-to-vehicle oddballs like [[Underbite]] and [[Crazybolt (RID)|Crazybolt]]. Around this time, [[IDW Publishing]] looped the concept around into its [[2005 IDW continuity|ongoing ''Transformers'' universe]], which depicted all beast-bots as victims of [[Functionism|functionist]] prejudice. In addition to introducing a new version of Jungle Planet, this time named "Eukaris", the final arc of ''[[Optimus Prime (comic)|Optimus Prime]]'' dealt with the return of Onyx Prime and his minions. A few years later, beast-bots again came into focus with 2021's ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' franchise, which revived the ''Beast Wars'' premise to celebrate its 25th anniversary, alongside a [[Transformers: Beast Wars|rebooted ''Beast Wars'' comic]].

While the [[Live-action film series|''Transformers'' movies]] have included a number of animalistic robots, including re-imagined versions of [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]], [[Ravage (ROTF)|Ravage]], or the [[Dinobot (AOE)|Dinobot]]s, their prominence in the franchise is comparatively small compared to their more famous vehicle-mode brethren. The 2023 ''[[Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (film)|Rise of the Beasts]]'' film shone the spotlight on beast mode Cybertronians for the first time in the films, having a group of [[Maximal]]s in the main cast.

{{--}}

==Beast mode taxonomy==
Beast mode Transformers come in a wide range of shapes and sizes. Some transform from robotic humanoids into robotic animals, others from robots into entirely organic creatures, and still others go from beasts into vehicles—a few simply change from one animal into another!

In 2025, the ''[[Technorganic Secrets]]'' expansion for the [[Transformers Roleplaying Game]] attempted to classify most known beast Transformers into nine main groups—generally relating to specific physical traits or overall structural composition. However, the book admits that these delineations are not clear-cut, and that individual beast mode characters don't always fall cleanly into one category or another—for instance, [[Tigerhawk]] has been described as both a [[Transmetal 2]] and a [[Fuzor]]. Similarly, multiple Transformers, such as the inhabitants of [[Jungle Planet (colony)|Jungle Planet]] in ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron]]'', or the Maximals in ''[[Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (film)|Rise of the Beasts]]'', transform into mechanical creatures, yet also incorporate organic hair, fur, and feathers. Other subgroups such as the [[Cyborg Beast]]s or [[Blentron]]s share traits with Transmetal 2 Transformers and Fuzors respectively, but have not yet been definitively linked to one another in any ''Transformers'' canon. Thus, the following categories can be best thought of as a general overview, rather than an exhaustive list.

===Mechanimals===
[[File:MTMTE-Doublecross.jpg|thumb|right|[[Doublecross]], an example of a mechanimal Transformer.]]
{{main|Mechanimal}}
By far the most common variety of beast mode Transformer, "mechanimal" Cybertronians transform into completely robotic facsimiles of organic creatures, Earth or otherwise. In general, Transformers who adopt these forms naturally forego any attempt at disguise in favor of general combat utility—Transformer teams such as the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobot]]s, [[Predacon (G1)|Predacon]]s, [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcon]]s, or [[Monsterbot (G1)|Monsterbot]]s are hard-hitting warriors who augment their natural strength and power with the claws and teeth afforded by their alternate forms.

Although primitive in comparison to other beast forms, mechanimal beast forms come with their own set of advantages—they can survive in hostile environments unaided, don't require any natural resources beyond [[energon]], and possess above-average strength and durability as a result of their wholly mechanical construction. While some of the best-known mechanimal Transformers like [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]] possess relatively limited articulation while transformed, others like [[Overhaul (G1)|Leobreaker]] or [[Predaking (Prime)|Predaking]] are nimble in both forms.

Notably, multiple ''Transformers'' franchises have also used the term "mechanimal" as a blanket term to describe various forms of non-sentient Cybertronian life, such as [[Cryo-Condor]]s or [[cybercat]]s; indeed, [[The Transformers Menagerie|some stories]] have suggested that Transformers like [[Laserbeak (G1)|Laserbeak]] or [[Ravage (G1)|Ravage]] ''are'' examples of augmented Cybertronian wildlife. Historically, there has been some rare overlap between these two concepts—for instance, [[Dominus Ambus|at least one Transformer]] possesses a [[turbofox]] alternate mode—but its use in "Technorganic Secrets" marks the first attempt to tie these two concepts together under a broader umbrella.

{{--}}

===Pretenders===
[[File:MTMTE-Carnivac.jpg|thumb|right|[[Carnivac (G1)|Carnivac]], an example of a Pretender Beast.]]
{{main|Pretender}}
Transformers who have undergone the Pretender upgrade remain wholly mechanical, but possess the ability to interface with an external suit of organic armor, allowing them to pass as organic creatures. In general, Autobot Pretenders resemble humans in armor, while Decepticons have historically adopted the countenance of terrifying monsters. Notably, a few Autobots and Decepticons are known as "[[Pretender Beast]]s" and instead transform into animals. These Pretender shells become heavily armored facsimiles of Earth creatures, which wrap around their inner mechanimal forms.

{{--}}

===BioGenetic Beasts===
[[File:Razorbeast.jpg|thumb|right|[[Razorbeast]], an example of a BioGenetic Beast.]]

{{main|BioGenetic Beast}}

The term "BioGenetic Beast" <ref>"[[Technorganic Secrets]]"</ref> refers to those Cybertronians—most prominently the [[Maximal]]s and [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]]s—whose alternate forms incorporate a layer of artificially-grown organic tissue, wrapped around an entirely mechanical bodyframe. While in their beast modes, these unique Transformers appear to be entirely organic animals at first glance. Some Cybertronians, most prominently the [[Chimeracon]]s, may use [[size changing]] technology to better blend in; others may simply transform into oversized insects or rodents.

While in their beast forms, BioGenetic Transformers are, essentially, flesh-and-blood creatures, although they retain a metallic endoskeleton and robotic components underneath this outer layer of skin, fur, or chitin.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/forum/#!search/authormsg$3Aalt.toys.transformers$2C-GCtfsO_cVoJ$20after$3A1997$2F1$2F1$20before$3A1997$2F2$2F1%7Csort:date%7Cspell:false/alt.toys.transformers/Tbk9A-giwV8/HpG751F9KAwJ "When BW's transform into beast mode, they become FULLY organic. This means they are vulnerable to anything the animal they become is. They get hurt worse when hit in beast mode, they have to breathe and eat, they are for all and intents and purposes animals." <nowiki>[...]</nowiki> "Take any G1 who was a car or truck. They had glove compartments, they had mirrors, they had tires, they had uh, car stuff. BW's have animal stuff... It's their "outer shell" you might say, it is what makes them "robots in disguise". When the shell is pierced (such as when Megatron bites into it), you get to circuitry underneath (yes there is metal beneath the fur and skin and the bones are metallic superstructure)... And no Cheetor doesn't have real blood, just mech fluid."]</ref> They breathe, sleep, and can even "eat", using an onboard [[biomass processor]] to metabolize raw organic material into a usable substitute for [[energon]].<ref>"[[Shattered Balance]]"</ref> As a result of these unusual modifications, BioGenetic Beasts are immune to [[energon radiation]]; while in their beast forms, they can safely operate in environments that would instantly paralyze wholly mechanical Transformers.

Multiple sources, including [[Dreamwave Productions|Dreamwave]]'s ''[[Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More than Meets the Eye]]'' guidebooks, ''[[Transformers: Classics#Fiction|Classics]]'', and the Transformers Roleplaying Game, have consistently tied the origins of BioGenetic Beasts to a combination of [[Pretender]] and [[Micromaster]] technology, a next-generation upgrade that directly integrates organic material into a Cybertronian's superstructure.

Various ''Transformers'' stories have alternately described these Cybertronians, as well as the closely related Fuzor, Transmetal and Transmetal 2 Transformers, as "biomechanical", "technorganic", and "techno-organic". The ''Technorganic Secrets'' book coined the term "BioGenetic Beasts" from the [[Optimus Primal vs Megatron!|original ''Beast Wars'' comic]] and toy packaging, which described organic beast forms as the product of a novel "[[Bio-Genetic Engineering]]".

{{--}}

===Transmetals===
[[File:BWSourcebook-TransmetalCheetor.jpg|thumb|right|[[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]], an example of a Transmetal.]]

{{main|Transmetal}}
Transmetal Transformers are usually—but not always—the result of exposing a beast form Cybertronian to the volatile energies of a [[quantum surge]]. Uniquely, Transmetal Cybertronians possess "inverted" physiologies compared to standard BioGenetic Beasts: although they transform into chrome, entirely robotic animals, their robot forms incorporate a mixture of organic tissue and mechanical components.
Uniquely, all Transmetal Transformers possess the ability to assume a transitional "third form"—while in their beast mode, they can deploy wheels, rocket engines, tank treads, or some other mechanism that allows them to quickly cover distances. Transmetal Transformers have displayed a resistance to energon radiation, possess an immunity to certain [[Vok]]-based weapons such as the [[Metal Hunter]], and can even withstand the paralysis-inducing [[transformation virus]].

{{--}}

===Fuzors===
[[File:BWSourcebook-Buzzclaw.jpg|thumb|right|[[Buzzclaw (BW)|Buzzclaw]], an example of a Fuzor.]]

{{main|Fuzor}}

Originally the product of a [[quantum surge]]-induced [[DNA scanner]] malfunction, Fuzors closely resemble other organic beast Transformers. However, they transform into outlandish hybrid creatures whose components generally originate from wildly different branches of the animal kingdom. While their strange appearances means that they stand no chance of passing for an ordinary Earth lifeform, their mix-and-match bodies let them safely operate in a wide range of environments—specialists like [[Air Hammer (BW)|Air Hammer]] can operate on the land, air, or sea.

Like Transmetal Transformers—also the product of a quantum surge mutation—Fuzors appear to exhibit a degree of resistance to [[Vok]] technology; unlike Transmetals, however, they display a vulnerability to [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]]'s [[transformation virus]].

{{--}}

===Transmetals 2===
[[File:Ramulus.jpg|thumb|right|[[Ramulus]], an example of a Transmetal 2.]]

{{main|Transmetal 2}}
Transmetal 2 technology has historically been linked to the [[Vok]]—specifically, a [[Transmetal driver|unique piece of technology]] capable of altering a Cybertronian's superstructure. Those brave Cybertronians who undergo the "Transmetal 2" upgrade become jumbled amalgamations of flesh and technology in both forms, transforming from mismatched robots into strange, sometimes monstrous versions of familiar Earth animals.
On average, Transmetal 2 Transformers are stronger and faster than their Transmetal predecessors, and have even manifested supernatural abilities such as telekinesis. However, this power comes at a price: many struggle to control their own primal instincts.

{{--}}

===Mutants===
[[File:BWSourcebook-Icebird.jpg|thumb|right|[[Icebird]], an example of a Mutant.]]

{{main|Mutant (BW)}}

While most other Cybertronians convert from a robot into an alternate mode, the Mutants are an odd exception: due to the circumstances behind their activation, they can only transform from one animal form into another. The circumstances behind their unusual mutation vary from universe to universe—some stories stories have tied their origins to [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]]'s [[transformation virus]], while others have implied a connection to the [[quantum surge]] that also created the Fuzors.

Although they often struggle with the emotional and physical ramifications of permanently losing their robot form, most observed Mutants have displayed unique powers that make them formidable combatants, including teleportation, super-speed, and the ability to shut down electrical devices.

===Technorganics===
[[File:Reformatting Primal technorganic beast mode.jpg|thumb|right|[[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimus Primal]], an example of a technorganic Transformer.]]

{{main|Technorganic}}

In its original usage in ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Machines]]'', the term "technorganic" was used to describe a unique, specific variety of Transformer created by the [[Oracle (BM)|Oracle]]. Viewed by some as the next evolution of the Transformer race, technorganic Cybertronians blend biological and cybernetic life at the cellular level, a perfect fusion between the organic and the mechanical.
Technorganic Cybertronians lacked the [[onboard computer]]s utilized by other Cybertronians and transformed via fluid shapeshifting, rather than mechanically reconfiguring their bodies. To learn how to access their robot forms, they would first have to find their "emotional still point", which could only be accomplished through a combination of meditation and mental discipline.

In other ''Transformers'' stories, the term "technorganic" has been applied to encompass a very wide range of concepts regarding the intersection of living technology with organic life: these range from characters like [[Blackarachnia (Animated)|''Animated'' Blackarachnia]] to the [[Gorlamite|quasi-Transformer inhabitants]] of [[Gorlam Prime]].

===Hybridizors===
[[File:RID-clampdown.jpg|thumb|right|[[Clampdown (RID)|Clampdown]], an example of a Hybridizor.]]
{{main|Hybridizor}}
Rather than transforming from a humanoid robot into an animal, some Transformers invert this relationship, and instead transform from a vehicle into an animalistic robot form. ''Technorganic Secrets'' coined the term "Hybridizors" to describe these unusual Cybertronians. Individual Transformers who fall under this aegis may be further subcategorized into groups based on specific species-based traits, such as "[[Buffaloid]]s", "[[Amphiboid]]s", or "[[Lobstercon]]s".

Some, such as [[Steeljaw (RID)|Steeljaw]], are mostly humanoid in appearance; others, such as [[Underbite]] or [[Vertebreak (RID)|Vertebreak]], are almost entirely animalistic. While fully mechanical in both forms, Hybridizors often incorporate specific animal traits into their robot mode biology—for instance, [[Skunkticon]]s like [[Malodor]] and [[Zorillor]] can spray disorienting toxins from their tails.

[[File:FoY Brimstone.jpg|thumb|left]]

The earliest recorded "beastform" Transformers were re-engineered specimens of naturally occurring Cybertronian wildlife: [[Laserbeak (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Laserbeak]], the first beast-former, was originally a [[Cryo-Condor]] who'd modified with a rudimentary alternate mode. Soon enough, [[Ravage (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ravage]] and [[Buzzsaw (G1)|Buzzsaw]] would join him. {{storylink|The Transformers Menagerie issue 1|Menagerie #1}} However, conflicting evidence places beast-form Cybertronians, most prominently [[Brimstone (G1 Decepticon)|Brimstone]], as having existed in ancient times long before the Autobot-Decepticon conflict. {{storylink|Flames of Yesterday}}

As the Autobot-Decepticon war spilled over to Earth, more and more beast-formers rose to prominence, including groups who transformed from humanoid robots into animals. The [[Insecticon (G1)|Insecticon]]s developed the ability to catalyze organic matter into a crude but usable form, {{storylink|The Transformers Menagerie issue 1|Menagerie #3}} while the presence of [[dinosaur transform static]] amongst the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobot]]s and their kin indicated the presence of a deeper synthesis taking place between these two disparate forms of life. {{storylink|The Transformers Menagerie issue 2|Menagerie #2}} Around this time, both the Autobots and Decepticons began making heavy use of animalistic "Recordabots" and "Recordicons". {{storylink|The Transformers Menagerie issue 1|Menagerie #1}}

The [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcon]]s were the first beast Transformers with the ability to [[combiner|combine]], and the first to not be based upon any recognizable Earth creature. {{storylink|The Transformers Menagerie issue 4|Menagerie #4}} The [[Predacon (G1)|Predacon]]s would become the most notable beast-bots in the years that followed [[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Galvatron]]'s disappearance and the revitalisation of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]; [[Perceptor (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Perceptor]] speculated that [[Razorclaw (G1)|Razorclaw]] had marshalled the remnants of the Decepticon military to another world, where he could mastermind the evolution of the Decepticons into a new breed of Predacon that combined the advantages of organic [[Pretender]] shells with fuel-efficient [[Micromaster]] bodies. {{storylink|The Transformers Menagerie issue 5|Menagerie #5}}

At some point during the Second Golden Age, Cybertronians with beast modes became increasingly commonplace. {{storylink|The Transformers Menagerie issue 1|Menagerie #1}} Some forward-thinking Autobots like [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]] encouraged this kind of [[Maximal|evolutionary leap forward]], if only to counter the inevitable [[Predacon (BW)|next generation of Predacons]]. {{storylink|The Transformers Menagerie issue 5|Menagerie #5}}

====Beast Era====
=====Toy bios=====
The Maximals developed a unique "bio-genetic morphing process" that allowed them to create the perfect fusion of organic musculature and Transformer technology. However, the evil Predacons stole this breakthrough and used it to create new forms for themselves based on Earth's most vicious creatures. {{storylink|Optimus Primal vs Megatron!}}

In order to win the [[Beast Wars (event)|Beast Wars]], [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] developed an experimental [[Transformation virus|anti-conversion virus]]. When used on a group of [[Fuzor]]s, the experiment went wrong and turned the four into [[Mutant (BW)|Mutant]]s trapped between two beast modes.<ref>Hasbro ''[[Mutant (BW)#Toys|Mutant Beast Wars]]'' packaging blurb</ref>

=====''Beast Wars'' cartoon=====
[[File:ChainOfCommand-Maximals.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.4]]
By the era of the [[Maximal]]s and [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]]s, three centuries after the end of the [[Great War (G1)|Great War]], technology had evolved to the point where Cybertronians could now use [[DNA scanner]]s and [[CR chamber]]s to perfectly mimic organic lifeforms, even extinct animals like [[Dinosaur (dinosaur)|dinosaur]]s. These next-generation beast modes sheathed Cybertronian superstructures beneath a layer of artificially grown skin and tissue and rendered them largely impervious to [[energon radiation]] that would otherwise damage purely mechanical lifeforms. Transformers would often initiate the process of converting from their [[robot mode]] by using the [[activation code]] "Beast mode!" {{storylink|Beast Wars (Part 1)}} Beast modes also seemingly have no effect on a Cybertronian's overall size, nor does there appear to be any mass-shifting when converting into their alternate forms. This is likely due to their function as protection, rather than disguise, and thus bypassing the benefits that the smaller sizes of the Great Upgrade provided may have been unnecessary.

Adopting a beast mode in this way appears to have a subtle effect on the Cybertronian psyche. Many combatants in the [[Beast Wars (event)|Beast Wars]] on prehistoric [[Earth]] displayed appetites consistent with the diets of their chosen form: for instance, [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattrap]] ate cheese and garbage, {{storylink|The Web}} [[Optimus Primal (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Optimus Primal]] displayed interest in a bunch of [[banana]]s, {{storylink|Feral Scream Part 2}} and [[Tarantulas (BW)|Tarantulas]] took a perverse delight in sucking the [[mech fluid|vital fluid]]s from his victims, although it's not clear if their artificial beast modes could actually digest and catalyze these materials into a usable form of energy. {{storylink|The Web}} While in beast mode, Cybertronians could affect internal repairs without the use of a CR chamber, although the process took time. {{storylink|Beast Wars (Part 1)}}

[[File:TM2Cheetorfly.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4]]

Traditionally, a programming block prevented a beast mode's natural instincts from interfering with the higher functions of the Cybertronians. {{storylink|Call of the Wild}} However, damage sustained by [[Tigatron]]'s [[stasis pod]] affected the [[protoform]] within, and after adopting a suitable beast mode he first believed himself to be a normal organic tiger before coming to his senses. {{storylink|Fallen Comrades}} Although [[Inferno (BW)|Inferno]]'s stasis pod did not sustain any apparent damage, the monomaniacal instincts of his ant beast mode shaped his worldview: he grew to believe that [[Megatron (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Megatron]] was his "queen" and the ''[[Darksyde (BW)|Darksyde]]'' his "colony". {{storylink|Spider's Game}} When the Predacons sabotaged the ''[[Axalon (BW)|Axalon]]'''s [[rectifier coil]], the Maximals were forced to remain in beast mode for days on end and eventually succumbed to their feral instincts. Thanks to Tigatron, who had already learned how to accept both sides of his being, the Maximals deleted the programming block and embraced their animal sides. {{storylink|Call of the Wild}} Indeed, both Maximals and Predacons would occasionally identify with their beast modes; [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]] once claimed that, as a cat, he should know better than to trust [[Silverbolt (Fuzor)|a dog]], {{storylink|The Agenda (Part 2)}} and later fantasized about playing with cat toys; {{storylink|Changing of the Guard}} Tarantulas, meanwhile, sought to create more of "[his] kind" by ensuring that new stasis pods scanned spider alternate modes. {{storylink|Spider's Game}}

A [[quantum surge]] of exotic energy mutated several Cybertronians into advanced "[[Transmetal]]" bodies: Transformers altered in this way integrated organic matter into the robot mode, while the entirely mechanical beast mode now possessed a third "vehicle mode". {{storylink|Aftermath (BW episode)|Aftermath}} Transformers who evolved even further into "[[Transmetal 2|Transmetals 2]]" became asymmetrical, sometimes monstrous, amalgamations of flesh and metal. {{storylink|Feral Scream Part 2}}

Cybertronians could use beast mode technology to mimic lifeforms other than animals—while exploring [[Regalis V|a distant world]] populated by ambulatory plants, [[Botanica (BM)|Botanica]] and her crew used the technology to adopt plant-based alternate modes. {{storylink|Home Soil}} While Optimus Primal and his crew were off-planet, a [[Quantum Cycle Upgrade|standardized upgrade]] fitted every Cybertronian with an in-built DNA scanner and rendered [[stasis pod]] technology obsolete. {{storylink|Survivor}}

Optimus Primal would later claim that the [[Oracle (BM)|Oracle]] supercomputer had engineered the entire Beast Wars as a way to bring fresh organic material to Cybertron via their biomechanical beast modes. {{storylink|The Key}} Upon arriving on Cybertron after Megatron broke free of their shuttle and conquered the planet, his armies of [[Vehicon (BM)|Vehicon]]s attacked the group with a debilitating [[transformation virus]] that devolved the Transmetal Maximals and trapped them in their beast modes. {{storylink|Revelations Part II: Descent|Descent}} Weakened and dying, the Maximals might've perished had Optimus not discovered the Oracle, which [[Reformatting|reformatted]] Optimus and the other Maximals into [[technorganic]] bodies, a powerful new breed of Cybertronian life that combined the organic and the technological on a cellular level. {{storylink|The Reformatting}} While in their beast modes, the Maximals gave off no energy signatures and were thus invisible to [[Vehicon (BM)|Vehicon]] sensors so long as they kept out of sight.

Encouraged by the early success of [[Pretender]] technology, Cybertronian scientists speculated that they could one day directly integrate this miraculous nanotechnology into a Transformer body.

====2005 IDW continuity====
[[File:TheMindBomb-cathead.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.4]]

The earliest known beast Transformers date back to the brief Dark Age that occurred between the departure of the [[Knights of Cybertron]] and the rise of the [[Thirteen]]. Many individual flocks and herds wandered the prehistoric badlands, searching for energon, {{storylink|The Falling, Interlude: The First Who Was Named|The First Who Was Named}} but among the most notable would be a powerful warrior tribe known as the [[Maximal]]s and their commander, [[Liege Maximo]]. {{storylink|The Falling, Chapter 5: Endless Forever|Endless Forever}} While fleeing the armies of [[The Fallen|Megatronus]], the group came into the employ of [[Onyx Prime]]—in reality, a time-travelling [[Shockwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Shockwave]] in disguise—who incorporated the Maximals into his personal "menagerie" of beast warriors. {{storylink|The Falling, Interlude: The First Who Was Named|The First Who Was Named}} {{storylink|Origin Myths}} Working with [[Alpha Trion]]'s group of [[Prime (rank)|Prime]]s, their impromptu alliance confronted Megatronus and his [[Darklands|Darklander]]s on the site that would one day become the [[Crystal City]], blunted his advance for good, and eventually laid the foundations for what would eventually become the [[Thirteen]]. {{storylink|Origin Myths}}

During the subsequent reign of the [[Thirteen Tribes]] over Cybertron, the Maximals and their kin faced discrimination due to their alternate modes. {{storylink|The Falling, Chapter 2: Another Mine|Another Mine}} During the later [[First Cybertronian Civil War]] between the tribes and their leaders, Onyx Prime and his armies entered into an alliance with [[Nexus Prime]]; using his [[Enigma of Combination]], they created an army of [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] that combined small beast-formers with larger humanoid Cybertronians. Darklander warrior [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Galvatron]] declared the union of beast and bot disgusting, and eventually slaughtered the ancient Headmasters to the last 'bot in the name of Cybertronian purity. {{storylink|Earthfall Part 3: The Mind Bomb|The Mind Bomb}}

[[File:TimeWillRust-Eukaris.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.66]]

Ultimately, however, the war ended with all of the Primes either dead or missing, and in their absence [[Nova Prime]] united the tribes of Cybertron under a new system of [[functionism]] where one's alternate mode defined their position in society. Under this new societal schema, the beasts were placed near the bottom of society, only outranking the unfortunate 'bots in the so-called "[[disposable class]]". The beasts would become the victims of institutionalized discrimination that lasted until the final days of [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]]'s reign. {{storylink|The Crucible}} However, before he and his innermost retinue of Maximals abandoned Cybertron for the ruins of [[Antilla]], Onyx Prime instructed the [[Titan (group)|Titan]] [[Chela]] to colonize a distant jungle world; using the [[hot spot (phenomenon)|hot spot]] within his body, Chela birthed an entire civilization of beast mode Transformers who could thrive in safety. These new "[[Jungle Planet (colony)|Eukarian]]" Transformers remembered the prejudice their ancestors had faced and cultivated a deep distrust of vehicular "standard-formers". {{storylink|Windblade vol. 2 issue 6|Windblade vol. 2 #6}}

[[File:FortMaxCuddles.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.4]]

By the time of the [[Great War (G1)|Great War]], the stigma surrounding beast modes had largely dissipated. Some vehicular Transformers even adopted beast modes—notably, the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dynobot]]s adopted [[Dinosaur (dinosaur)|dinosaur]] beast modes with synthetic flesh to protect them from high leves of [[Energon]] radiation on prehistoric [[Earth]]. {{storylink|Spotlight: Shockwave}} During his tour of duty on [[Z'verei]], [[Rattrap (BW)#2005 IDW continuity|Rattrap]] adopted a [[Z'verein mole-rat]] alternate mode. {{storylink|Three Monologues}}

Several years after the war, beast modes again rose to prominence: while [[Starscream (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Starscream]]'s [[Republic of Cybertron|post-war government]] discovered and opened diplomatic channels with the citizens of Eukaris, the Decepticon [[Demus]] began kidnapping beast mode Transformers, subjecting them to a horrific "[[domestication]]" process, then marketing his victims as "[[Roboid]]s" as torture dolls for organic races. {{storylink|Animals}} Exposure to [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]]'s corrupted [[energon]] spontaneously mutated the [[Caminus (planet)|Camien]] [[Strafe (IDW)|Strafe]] so that she transformed into a two-headed monster. {{storylink|The Transformers: Redemption|Redemption}}

The mad scientist [[Tarantulas (BW)|Mesothulas]] combined quasi-organic beast mode technology with [[obtenteum]] to create mass-shifting "bio-disguises". Cybertronians who underwent this "[[Chimeracon]]" upgrade gained the ability to perfectly mimic any living creature and completely mask their Cybertronian energy signatures in the process. Members of [[Mayhem Attack Squad|Mayhem]] adopted this technology and used it to hide out among the native wildlife while operating in the [[Alaska]]n wilderness. {{storylink|Sins of the Wreckers issue 3|Sins of the Wreckers #3}} Later still, Tarantulas perfected the technology, allowing [[Overlord (G1)|Overlord]] to pass himself off as a human politician. {{storylink|Transformers: Requiem of the Wreckers|Requiem of the Wreckers}}

When "Onyx Prime" returned to Cybertron, he brought with him an entire Maximal army; eventually, however, his beast servants betrayed him and allied instead with his ultimate creation, [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]]. {{storylink|Road's End}} Several of the newborn Cybertronians born from [[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]]'s hot spot on Earth possessed beast modes. {{storylink|Post}}

[[File:Safe Spaces Preditron Gaidora.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.4]]

Several years into the [[Grand Uprising]], the ambitious Predacon [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] observed that [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]'s growing menagerie of [[mechanimal]]s could somehow metabolize their own [[energon]] from raw materials like industrial runoff. Inspired by this unexpected resilience, Megatron grew interested in somehow grafting this physiological trait onto the [[Maximal]]s and [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]]s, who remained reliant on ordinary [[energon cube]]s like their [[Builder of Cybertron|Builder]] forebears. Progress did not come easily; most of Megatron's earliest test subjects died from the imperfect process, but after seeking out the disgraced [[Autobot]] scientist [[Leatherhide (Universe)|Leatherhide]], who had previously attempted to hybridize Cybertronians with mechanicals, the pair quickly perfected process—first, they created [[Inferno (BW)|Formikon]], then applied the process to themselves. {{storylink|Not All Megatrons}}

Sure enough, Transformers who adopted the '''Beast Upgrade''' no longer required external [[energon cube]]s to function; instead, they could ingest food which their onboard systems could then process into energon. {{storylink|Not All Megatrons}} Beast mode Transformers also possessed increased reflexes as a result of their bio-enhanced physiologies, {{storylink|Cultural Appropriation}} enhanced senses, {{storylink|Safe Spaces}} and could quickly repair their injuries while transformed. {{storylink|Cultural Appropriation}} Soon, Megatron's front corporation made the upgrade public, and Maximals and Predacons across the planet chose to abandon their original vehicular configurations in favor of beast modes. {{storylink|Cultural Appropriation}} Popular beast mode templates included [[jurassanoid]]s, [[armodrillo]]s, and [[cybercat]]s, {{storylink|Derailment}} although some Cybertronians modelled their alternate modes on strange alien creatures {{storylink|Safe Spaces}} or even mythical animals like dragons and phoenixes. {{storylink|Derailment}} They became a decisive factor as the Grand Uprising came to a close; freed from the need for vulnerable energon supply chains, members of the [[Resistance (BWU)|Resistance]] and other splinter forces could besiege Builder-held cities with impunity. {{storylink|Cultural Appropriation}}

Although most Cybertronians found the idea repulsive, Predacon gathered a small but fanatical cult of personality who believed wholeheartedly in his ideals. {{storylink|More than Meets the Eye: Transformers: Armada|More than Meets the Eye}}

Millennia ago, a group of Cybertronian colonists settled the planet they would name "[[Jungle Planet (colony)|Jungle Planet]]" aboard the starship ''[[Hyperborea (Cybertron)|Hyperborea]]''. {{storylink|Homecoming (episode)|Homecoming}} As time passed, their descendents adopted various beast modes to cope with life on their wild and untamed planet: although most inhabitants of Jungle Planet appear to transform into reptiles, dinosaurs, or mammals, {{storylink|Search (episode)|Search}} some have become birds or even arthropods. {{storylink|Honor}}

Jungle Planet's [[Cyber Planet Key]] appears to have the power to instantly reformat Cybertronians into a suitable beast mode. When [[Overhaul (Cybertron)|Overhaul]] tapped into the power of the Jungle Planet's [[Cyber Planet Key]], he gained a lion alternate mode and redubbed himself "Leobreaker". {{storylink|Detour (episode)|Detour}} In [[Aurex 1006.0 Beta|one alternate timeline]], the energies of the Jungle Planet key mutated both Optimus Prime and Megatron into beast forms while on the Jungle Planet. {{storylink|Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Gorilla|Jungle Planet Optimus Prime toy bio}} {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime#Facebook|Ask Vector Prime, 2015/09/19}}

In Cybertron's distant past, beast modes appeared to have been more common—ancient warriors such as the [[Dinobot (AOE)|Dinobot]]s and [[Guardian Knight]]s transformed into imposing predators like dinosaurs and dragons. {{storylink|Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction}} {{storylink|Transformers: The Last Knight (film)|The Last Knight}}

By the era of the [[Great War (Movie)|Great War]], beast modes appear to have fallen out of favour. Many modern Cybertronians with animal forms, including [[Laserbeak (DOTM)|Laserbeak]], and the [[Insecticon (Movie)|Insecticon]]s, are [[mechanimal]]s who have been re-engineered to serve wartime roles, such as espionage or sabotage.<ref>[http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/discover/cybertronian-database.cfm#/characters/laserbeak Vector Sigma database at Hasbro.com]</ref> In many cases, these beast warriors formed symbiotic relationships with larger Cybertronians, who could deploy them as needed to scout ahead or carry out specific duties. {{storylink|Transformers (film)|Transformers}}

[[File:Blackarach anim beast.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.4]]

Although robotic creatures like [[brontobot]]s and [[cybercat]]s were common enough on Cybertron to be kept as pets, Cybertronians with beast modes were a very uncommon sight. {{storylink|Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac II|The AllSpark Almanac II}} During a disastrous expedition to the forbidden world of [[Archa Seven]], the Autobot cadet [[Blackarachnia (Animated)|Elita-1]] attempted to use her download powers on [[Archa Seven arachnid|a native arachnid]], but wound up infecting herself with their venom instead. The transformation mutated her into a [[technorganic]] amalgamation of organic and mechanical and gave her a new alternate mode based on the spiders. {{storylink|Along Came a Spider}}

As part of his many attempts to regain his body and power, [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]] experimented on dinosaur automatons to make them attack drones. Perhaps as a result of these modifications, [[Sari Sumdac (Animated)|Sari Sumdac]]'s [[AllSpark Key]] was drawn to the automatons, granting them [[spark]]s and turning them into fully fledged Cybertronians. {{storylink|Blast from the Past}} Their beast modes, and indeed their very existence, was viewed as proof by [[Sentinel Prime (Animated)|Sentinel Prime]] as what a screwloose planet Earth was. {{storylink|The Elite Guard}}

In her quest to purge herself of her organic half, Blackarachnia fused [[Wasp]] with an organic wasp in the hopes that finding a way to reverse the process could clue her into curing her own condition. Like her, the monstrous "Waspinator" possessed the ability to transform into a huge technorganic wasp. {{storylink|Predacons Rising (Animated)|Predacons Rising}}

[[File:Sgpredaconsvsgrimlock.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4]]

Inspired by [[Grimlock (SG)|Grimlock]]'s success after the Autobots liberated him from stasis and inducted him into their ranks, the mad scientist [[Wheeljack (SG)|Wheeljack]] created an entire army of deranged [[Dinobot (SG)|Dinobot]]s, artificial lifeforms who utilized a sophisticated artificial intelligence instead of a life-giving [[Spark|ember]]. Wheeljack used his impromptu army to launch a coup against [[Optimus Prime (SG)|Optimus Prime]], but the Dinobots turned on one another and scattered into the Cybertronian wilderness.

Both the Autobots and Decepticons tried to gain control of as many Dinobots as they could. In the meantime, Grimlock stumbled across the ancient [[Omega Terminus]] supercomputer, which imbued an ember upon him that transformed him from a simple-minded beast into an intelligent Cybertronian with a humanoid robot mode. After returning to the surface, he gathered all of his fellow Dinobots and upgraded them in a similar fashion, granting them embers and the ability to transform. {{storylink|Dungeons & Dinobots}} While some of the Dinobots and Dinocons gained humanoid robot forms, others, like [[Slugfest (SG)|Slugfest]] and [[Overkill (SG)|Overkill]], instead transformed into data cartridges. {{storylink|Do Over}}

Other Autobots and Decepticons, most prominently the [[Predacon (SG)|Predacon]]s, transformed into small animals. {{storylink|Shattered Glass (issue)|Shattered Glass}} [[Terrorcon (SG)|Terrorcon]] leader [[Hun-Grrr (SG)|Hun-Grrr]] adopted an alternate mode based on an [[Algean two-headed razor beast]]. {{storylink|Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club issue 28|Hun-Grrr profile}} A future group of time-travelling Transformers led by [[Megatron (BWSG)|a different Megatron]] also possessed beast modes. {{storylink|Shattered Destiny}}

===Aligned continuity family===
====''The Covenant of Primus''====
[[File:COP-predacons.jpg|thumb|right]]
At the dawn of time, [[Primus]] created [[Onyx Prime]], the first beast-mode Cybertronian. Although [[Quintus Prime]] and [[Liege Maximo]] would cooperate with one another in the days after [[Unicron]]'s defeat to found a "farm" of small, semi-autonomous animal robots, these were not truly "alive", although when the remaining Primes fell to violence and chaos in the wake of [[Solus Prime]]'s passing they proved deadly enough to mortally wound Onyx. When he and his friend [[Micronus Prime]] returned to Primus via the newly created [[Well of All Sparks]], Onyx used his [[Triptych Mask]] to scan all the life in the universe and provide the Well itself with an infinite variety of templates for future Cybertronian lifeforms. These included both humanoid Cybertronians and a wide array of beasts, who formed a functioning ecosystem based around exploiting the [[energon]] that flowed freely over the planet's surface. The planet's apex predators, the [[Predacon (Prime)|Predacons]], harassed the city-dwelling Cybertronians until [[Prima]] finally defeated [[Predaking (COP)|Predaking]] in single combat. Although all of the creatures that emerged from the Well of All Sparks possessed functioning [[transformation cog]]s, the Cybertronians of the era did not understand how to transform and thus creatures like the [[Insecticon (WFC)|Insecticon]]s and Predacons permanently remained in their beast modes.

In the wake of Cybertron's [[Great Cataclysm|first mass extinction]], many forms of life, including the Predacons, vanished entirely. Cybertron's overall diversity took a major hit; although some beasts and beast-like Cybertronians like the Insecticons and [[Arachnicon]]s survived, the subsequent rise of civilization pushed many of them out into Cybertron's dwindling wilderness or deeper underground. When the Quintessons invaded, the [[Sharkticon (species)|Sharkticons]] were enslaved as enforcers and executioners.

After the departure of the ''[[Ark (WFC)|Ark]]'' and ''[[Trypticon (WFC)|Nemesis]]'', [[Shockwave (WFC)|Shockwave]] used a malfunctioning [[space bridge]] to study creatures from other planets and time periods, and found himself captivated by the [[Dinosaur (dinosaur)|dinosaur]]s of prehistoric Earth. Inspired by their ferocity, he and [[Forged|his Insecticon minions]] rebuilt [[Grimlock (WFC)|Grimlock]] and four other Transformers into the fearsome [[Dinobot (FOC)|Dinobot]]s that incorporated a number of design traits inspired by the extinct Predacons. Later still, Shockwave would even clone [[Predaking (Prime)|one of those Predacons]] to become one of his enforcers. {{storylink|Transformers: The Covenant of Primus|The Covenant of Primus}}

Shockwave discovered the Insecticons in the depths of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] and re-engineered them into loyal Decepticons who would aid the Decepticon empire as it broadened its reach beyond Cybertron. {{storylink|Fragmentation (FOC)|Fragmentation}} The Insecticons lured [[Grimlock (WFC)|Grimlock]] and the [[Dinobot (FOC)|Lightning Strike Coalition]] into a trap, allowing Shockwave to experiment upon the group; inspired by the creatures he'd viewed on a prehistoric planet called Earth, his experiments took place on the genetic level that spliced dinosaur DNA with their [[CNA]]. {{storylink|Siege Mentality}} {{storylink|Rage of the Dinobots issue 4|Rage of the Dinobots #4}}

Later still, following the disappearance of Optimus Prime, Megatron, and their followers, Shockwave wasted no time in establishing an empire of his own, enforced by a legion of warriors who called themselves the "[[Forged]]". {{storylink|Rage of the Dinobots issue 1|Rage of the Dinobots #1}} A mixture of remnant Decepticons and cloned Predacons, the most loyal of their number received bestial upgrades that gave them Predacon-like traits and draconic beast modes.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-comics-discussion/917845-q-mairghread-scott-writer-transformers-prime-beast-hunters.html#post9492754 Mairghread Scott Q and A]</ref> Their leader, [[Ser-Ket (Prime)|Ser-Ket]], embraced the idea, and viewed beast modes as the "true forms" of the Cybertronians who had undergone Shockwave's experimentation. {{storylink|Rage of the Dinobots issue 2|Rage of the Dinobots #2}}

As the [[Great War (Prime)|Great War]] spilled over onto other worlds, [[Shockwave (WFC)|Shockwave]] cloned an army of Predacons from fossilized remains and deployed them to distant planets to eliminate Autobots. On Earth, they formed the basis for many myths and legends involving [[dragon]]s. {{storylink|Project Predacon}} Other prominent beast mode Cybertronians included the [[Insecticon (WFC)|Insecticon]]s, which possessed a strange, quasi-telepathic connection with the similarly insectoid [[Airachnid (Prime)|Airachnid]], {{storylink|Armada (episode)|Armada}} and the [[Dinobot (FOC)|Dinobot]]s. {{storylink|Project Predacon}}

In the present day, Shockwave again turned his attention to cloning Predacons, and first created [[Predaking (Prime)|Predaking]] before travelling to Earth, with the intent of producing many more. However, the discovery that the Predacons were intelligent beings with the ability to transform prompted [[Megatron (WFC)|Megatron]] to scrap the project. {{storylink|Evolution}}

Despite this setback, Shockwave would later clone [[Darksteel (Prime)|Darksteel]] and [[Skylynx (Prime)|Skylynx]] after his return to Cybertron and put them to work searching for more Predacon remains. {{storylink|Predacons Rising (Prime)|Predacons Rising}}

==Notes==
* "Beast mode" has since been trademarked by Marshawn Lynch, an American football running back for the [[Seattle Seahawks]], who claims to have "invented" it as his own personal, signature catch phrase. Lynch now uses it as the primary branding of [https://www.beastmodeonline.com/ his clothing line], so don't expect the phrase to appear on any [[Hasbro]] merchandise any time soon.

Transformers (2010 toyline)

ThatGuy79: /* Autobot Alliance */ "Innacurate"

{{disambig2|the subtitle-less Hasbro toyline released in the real-world year|the TakaraTomy franchise named for the in-fiction year|Transformers 2010 (franchise)}}
{{nav-Hasbro2010}}
[[File:TF2010-toy SeaSpray BoxedSample.jpg|right|thumb|250px|Identity crisis.]]
'''''Transformers''''' is a [[Hasbro]] toyline that ran from [[2010]] to [[2011]] with the intention of re-envisioning the [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|live-action movie toyline]] into a broader celebration of the history of the brand. The line featured many characters who had not appeared in the movies, but at the same time Hasbro was able to plausibly present it as a movie tie-in to retailers who (naturally) were very eager to stock merchandise related to the highly popular and successful films.

It included the ''[[Hunt for the Decepticons]]'' promotion in 2010 which transitioned directly into the ''[[#RTS|Reveal the Shield]]'' [[rubsign]]-based [[subline imprint]] in late 2010 to early 2011. Given the line's lack of a subtitle, fans have commonly referred to it simply by these names, for lack of any clearer alternative. Internally, Hasbro apparently referred to the line as "'''Autobot Alliance'''" (the same name it was known by in Japan), as this was the name that appeared on the toys' identifying placecards at various 2010 conventions and internal store computer listings for the products.

The line had two different styles of [[packaging]]: yellow and red. The red packaging was less common, mostly getting used for [[exclusive]]s, and was very similar to that of the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)#Original line (2010–2011)|Generations]]'' toyline—only lacking the ''Generations'' subtitle. Confusing matters further is the fact that several ''Generations''-styled toys were, for whatever reason, released as part of this toyline with little to differentiate them from the movie figures. Both toylines saw the replacement of the plastic-coated twist-ties of previous lines with paper tie-downs.

New characters Sandstorm and Hound were eventually ascertained to be movieverse characters, even though their molds were originally designed for ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]''.

Elita-1 completed the trio of motorcycle sisters using that line's mold for [[Chromia (ROTF)#Revenge of the Fallen|Chromia]], and a "Tuner" version of Skids was released to match [[Mudflap (ROTF)#Tuner|"Tuner" Mudflap]]. Various other characters from the movie - Ravage, Jolt and Ratchet - were also given new decos, and brand-new molds were even created for Bumblebee, Ironhide and Sideswipe. A variety of new offscreen characters were thrown into the mix - redecos Jetblade and Axor, and new molds Hailstorm, Terradive and Tomahawk.

====Voyager Class====
A mixture of redecos, retools and new molds made up the ''Hunt for the Decepticons'' Voyager Class. Sea Spray was the only new mold created for ''Hunt for the Decepticons'' that was unambiguously based on a "Generation 1" character - despite his fictional appearances treating him as just another movieverse character. With Hasbro's stance on the matter being confusing at best, fans seemed happier to accept some of Sea Spray's contemporaries (such as Banzaitron and Axor) as updated versions of older characters than they might have been with similar "homages" in older movie lines.

====Larger figures====
The Leader Class offering consisted of Optimus Prime (a retool of his ''Revenge of the Fallen'' figure) and Starscream (a brand new mold). The roughly-Leader-sized "Battle Ops Bumblebee" was released on his own under a distinct assortment, in a slightly differently-shaped box. Starscream and Bumblebee were released by Takara as the first two figures in their ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece#Masterpiece Movie Series|Masterpiece Movie Series]]'' - a series that would then remain dormant for seven years, only to continue in 2017 with more brand new molds.

The previous movie toylines had included a veritable deluge of exclusive redecos, and ''Hunt for the Decepticons'' was far from an exception. Around the summer of 2010, Walmart and Target each received an assortment of 'versus' two-packs.

====''The Most Wanted Decepticons''====
Later in the year, Hasbro launched a range of exclusive multi-packs across multiple retail partners labelled ''The Most Wanted Decepticons''. Most of the packs were inspired by specific scenes from the [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|''Revenge of the Fallen'' film]], and each included a collector card spotlighting that set's prime Decepticon target. Unfortunately, the range's rollout saw significant setbacks, and ultimately two of the revealed packs would go completely unreleased, while one saw release only in the [[United Kingdom]].

==Hasbro ''Reveal the Shield'' subline==
[[File:RevealTheShield.jpg|center]]
Evidently unsatisfied with the amount of ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]''-style product being released in ''Generations'' and not wanting to be restricted to the Deluxe [[size class]], Hasbro began the ''Reveal the Shield'' subline imprint in November [[2010]] and started introducing a variety of G1-and-beyond characters alongside the movieverse characters.

[[File:TF2010 deluxe TurboTracks.jpg|thumb|250px|I'm too sexy for ''Generations'', too sexy for ''Generations'', too sexy for that location...]]
Aside from the packaging, the main difference between ''Reveal the Shield'' and ''Generations'' was the former's use of rubsigns much like those of the original "[[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]]" toys. Because this subline's entire theme hinged on the characters' factions being unknown until you activated their rubsigns, those who had previously required "Autobot" or "Decepticon" prefixes in front of their names for [[trademark]] purposes instead had unique descriptive words added to their names to keep their allegiance a closely guarded ultra secret mystery. A mystery, that is, to anyone who hadn't paid any attention at all to any Transformers fiction or merchandise in the past 25 years or so - and who'd ignored the faction-specific logos and [[bio]]s on the back of the packaging, the latter of which ''did'' occasionally use the "Autobot" prefixes or identify characters' factions for no apparent reason at all. The [[multilingual packaging|European-market packaging]] omitted the prefixes from the heavily-truncated multilingual bios due to a different trademark situation in Europe, but were otherwise no better off. To top it all off, the released figures only ended up including five Decepticons compared to seventeen Autobots anyway!

Honestly, you've got to wonder why they bothered in the first place.

Unfortunately, while ''Generations'' carried on strong, it was the ''Reveal the Shield'' figures that fell victim to "[[tail-ender|tail-end-of-the-line syndrome]]", with many retailers in the United States passing on the entire segment in favor of the then-upcoming ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' line. While most of the figures were comparably easy to find at retail in many international markets (even Europe for a change!), they weren't made available in the United States until many months later, and then only at closeout chains such as TJ Maxx, Ross or Marshalls. Three Scout Class figures were [[unreleased toy|never released]] at all - they'd have made for six Decepticons to nineteen Autobots, which we suppose are slightly better odds...

===General retail===

Two waves of G1-styled ''Universe'' redecos and new molds were released for ''Reveal the Shield''.

====Scout Class====
''Reveal the Shield'' Windcharger marked the first ''Classics''-style Scout Class figure ever - but the second, "Demolition Rumble", went unreleased along with the rest his wave and the Scout Class ended up getting phased out of future toylines in favor of the [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] "Commander Class" and a new [[Transformers: Generations (toyline)#Fall of Cybertron .282012.E2.80.932013.29|Legends Class]].

Eight Autobots were released across two waves during the ''Reveal the Shield'' subline. These consisted of a live-action-movie-inspired redeco of ''Classics'' Bumblebee, five new ''Classics''-style molds, and two new-character movieverse redecos.

====Activators====
A set of five new "[[Activators]]" molds were created for the 2010 ''Transformers'' toyline - similar to those of the ''Transformers Animated'' toyline, only closer to the Deluxe Class in size and based on movieverse characters. A third wave consisted of same-character redecos of the ever-popular Bumblebee and Optimus Prime.

===Exclusives===
[[File:2010 Amazon Unicron.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Supreme Class Unicron with Krunix]]
Concurrently with ''Hunt for the Decepticons'' and ''Reveal the Shield'', a wider variety of store exclusive reissues and redecos saw release. These included a reissued [[Seacon (G1)|Seacon]]s giftset; a reissue of the ''Classics'' "The Ultimate Battle" two-pack; a retool of ''Armada'' [[Unicron]]; redecos of ''War for Cybertron'' Megatron, Optimus Prime and Bumblebee; rereleased/redecoed ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]'' Scout Class figures; and redecos of various Legends Class figures (in a four-pack and packed with another version of the "Battle Ops Bumblebee" figure).

Much like those released during ''Universe'', a variety of redecos of ''Classics'' and ''Cybertron'' Mini-Cons were released both individually and in multi-packs (although [https://tformers.com/transformers-first-looks-at-shared-exclusive-minicon-three-pack/15123/news.html at least one three-pack] never saw release).

Western releases of Takara's ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' figures continued where ''Universe'' left off with Grimlock, Rodimus Prime (swapping the Takara version's trailer for a new [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]] partner), Optimus Prime (the MP-10 version) and Thundercracker (completing the Seeker trio for Western fans). Naturally, they skipped Megatron. Hasbro's later ''Masterpiece'' releases would get their own packaging style, either as part of the ''[[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' lines or just as one-offs.

All of the new ''Hunt for the Decepticons'' molds saw release in Japan, with different plastic colors and paint applications to their US counterparts; however, the packaging is identical to the Hasbro releases (having some new stickers with legal info in Japanese on them added), which means the on-package imagery was often pretty dang inaccurate. On top of that, this release of "Battle Blades Optimus Prime" was retooled to have Battle ''Hooks''.

The new Legends Class Constructicon molds were redecoed as Payload and Skipjack by Takara for release as part of their blind-packed ''EZ Collection'' series. The rest of their wave consisted of some new redecos of ''Revenge of the fallen'' Legends Class figures: pink-and-white versions of Skids and Mudflap (in homage to their ice-cream truck form) and minor redecos of Brawl, Scorponok and the combining Optimus Prime and Jetfire figures. The ''Hunt for the Decepticons'' Ravage mold had already been released in the previous wave, as part of their ''Animated'' line.

==TakaraTomy ''Welcome to Transformers 2010'' campaign==
[[File:WelcomeToTransformers2010.jpg|right|thumb|250px]]
To celebrate the "future era" of [[The Transformers (cartoon)|the original "Generation 1" cartoon]] (which was set during 2010, rather than 2005, in [[Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity|the Japanese continuity]]), TakaraTomy released several exclusive figures based on ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'' as part of their ''Welcome to Transformers 2010'' campaign: a Predaking reissue, a redeco of ''Masterpiece'' Convoy (only 2,010 copies of which were produced), a pair of translucent Optimus Prime / Rodimus "Sons of Cybertron" two-packs, a movie-accurate retool of Unicron and a redeco of Primus. Each figure was worth a certain number of "[[Robot Point|Campaign Points]]", ten of which could be redeemed for an exclusive "Sound Stage" (a redeco of the electronic display base included with Hasbro's "[[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#20thDVD|20th Anniversary DVD Edition]]" ''Masterpiece'' Optimus Prime) intended for use with MP-9 Rodimus Convoy (itself worth three points).

'''Gnashteeth''' (ナッシュティース ''Nasshutīsu'') is the "God of Destruction" of the Predacons. His motto is, "There is nothing that cannot be destroyed with my two arms!" One imagines he means his [[robot mode]] arms, though the idea of a robotic ''Tyrannosaurus'' who uses his tiny flailing forelimbs as his primary weapon is compelling.

At some later point, Gnashteeth adopts the name '''Chromebite''' (クロムバイト ''Kuromubaito'') and changes his motto to "The light of honor heralds shining destruction!".<ref>Micron Booster material</ref>

* Gnashteeth's coloration is a pretty clear [[homage]] to ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]]'s original purple ''T. rex'' body.

5 mm post

2025-08-25T21:58:55Z

ThatGuy79:

[[File:5mmpostmainpic 001.jpg|upright=1.95|thumb|Weapons for everybody!]]
One of the simplest innovations in [[toy|Transformers toys]], using universally sized posts for accessories, weapons and figures is something that has characterised several Transformers lines throughout the years. The most common universal post and port size is the '''5 millimetre (5 mm) post''' (also commonly stylized without a space as '''5mm post''' in defiance of SI standards). This size was used throughout [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]], ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'', and almost universally throughout ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'', ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'', and ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]''.

Using a single, universal size of weapon post allows Transformers toys to swap weapons between one another. During most Transformers toy lines, this interchangeability was seldom advertised as a feature of the toys, but during ''Armada'', that changed. The introduction of the [[Mini-Con]]s gave 5 mm posts an entirely new purpose: A hollow 5 mm post could now become a mounting point for a Mini-Con. The interchangeability suddenly became an advertised feature of the toys.

The 5 mm post has become pretty ubiquitous in ''Transformers'' toy design, with only a few lines (mainly the [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|2007 live-action movie]] and ''[[Transformers Animated (toyline)|Animated]]'') favoring less-interchangeable systems.

==Functionality==
===Backwards compatibility===
[[File:Primesharingguns.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|"Dude, you're right. Guns with their posts in the right place '''rock!'''"]]
Probably the biggest, most meaningful aspect of using a universal fist size is compatibility between toys. You can share your accessories or Mini-Cons or even some integral parts of toys around to other toys from the same line. Even better for long-term fans of the franchise is that the continuous use of 5 mm posts from Generation 1 onwards into modern lines means that toys are actually backwards-compatible with the accessories from older toys. As well as delightful opportunities for mixing and matching, this means that characters who get new toys can use accessories from their old toys. Even if you don't like [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Classics|"Classics" Optimus Prime's]] rifle, you can always just give him [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#PMOP|Powermaster Optimus Prime's]] rifle, or [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Return of Convoy|Star Convoy's]].

This compatibility works both ways, allowing you to use ''Armada'', ''Energon'' and even Power Core Combiners weapons with old [[Micromaster]] Bases or [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster]]s toys.

{{-}}
===A matter of tolerance===
Despite the fact that 5 mm posts are supposed to be universally the same size, this isn't always the case. Sometimes, due to play wear or simply to slight (very slight) differences in tooling, some posts are tighter or looser than others. This can mean that sometimes a toy will hold a gun loosely, or that a weapon will be too tight to fit into another toy's hand.

Generally, this is only a problem on toys or toolings that have seen a lot of use. A Generation 1 toy like [[Soundwave (G1)/toys#Generation 1|Soundwave]] that was produced for several years and re-released many times might actually show a difference in tolerance between different samples of the toy. Similarly, toolings which see a lot of use, such as [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Classics|"Classics" Starscream]], can begin to show mould wear. There are many reports of later ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' versions of the mould not being able to hold their weapons correctly because tolerances are poor. There are several recommended actions for fixing loose sockets, such as floor polish.

If a toy sees a lot of play, especially if weapons are being removed and replaced repeatedly, a hole (or sometimes a post) can wear down, making the weapons looser. It's possible to increase this problem while swapping weapons between different toys. If a gun post from a [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Pretender|Pretender Bumblebee]] is slightly smaller than the post from [[Grimlock (G1)/toys#Pretender|Pretender Grimlock]], then Grimlock's gun might actually ''stretch'' Bumblebee's fists. This could result in Bumblebee no longer being able to hold his own gun firmly. It's advisable when swapping guns between different toys to be aware of the slight differences in tolerances between toys.

Additionally, different ports and posts on the ''same'' toy may have different tolerances. Sometimes this is to prevent accessories from being inserted somewhere that could result in damage, such as [[Shockwave (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Shockwave's Leader-class ''Siege'' figure]]; the post on the end of his hose is slightly bigger than most of his ports, except for the ones that are pointed out in the instructions for transformation. However, other times it appears to be a mistake - the same figure has difficulty plugging in accessories from other figures such as Weaponizer parts due to the ports being shrunk to prevent the hose from being inserted somewhere it could be potentially overextended.
{{-}}

===Multiple posts and double posting===
[[File:Swindlerifle doublepostdemo.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|"Pssst—hey, bud!" "WHO, ME?!" "Shhhhhh!" "Who, me?" "Riiiiiiiiight."]]
Some Transformers toys come with multiple figures, such as a [[Pretender]] shell and its inner robot. Other toys are small and merge with bigger toys to become still larger. Other toys come with a trailer or base which has larger weapons than the core robot. Because of the size difference between the two components, two different weapon post sizes are required.

The early Pretenders usually handle this by simply giving the gun two different posts: a larger 5 mm post for the outer shell, and a smaller post for the inner robot. The result is that the two figures hold the same gun in different ways. For the purposes of this article, we'll refer to these as "multiple-post weapons".

Another solution, one often used with combiners, is simply to have the two posts one on top of the other—the smaller post on the bottom and the larger post on the top, both forming the same handle of the gun. [[Grimlock (G1)/toys|Grimlock]]'s accessories are one of the earliest examples (albeit unintentional), with rings or ridges widening the pegs to 5 mm. The problem with this solution is that, when one gives weapons to unrelated toys, Transformers with fist holes that don't go all the way through the hands (such as [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys#Armada|''Armada'' Hot Shot]]) often can't hold these guns. We'll call that "double-posting" or "double-posted weapons" for the purposes of this article.

===5 mm Screw Holes===
Many Transformers over the years have indented holes to allow screws to hold two pieces of the toy together. These screw holes come in all shapes and sizes but often they are also 5 mm ports. Sometimes this is intentional, and the screw hole is deliberately moulded to 5 mm to give the toy more functionality. Most of the time though, they aren't intentionally 5 mm ports and are either very tight or slightly loose.

5 mm screw holes can add functionality to many toys which otherwise aren't 5 mm compatible, especially if a fan is creative. However, we have only included 5 mm screw holes in the compatibility list below if they are particularly notable. So if you suspect a toy's screw holes are 5 mm and it's not on the list, at least give it a try.

===Powerlinx Pegs===
[[File:Armadagalvatron 5mmoverload.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|I want it all, and I want it now!]]

During the [[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|''Armada'' toy line]], a new spin on the 5 mm post and port was developed: the [[Mini-Con]] [[Powerlinx]]. Using hollow 5 mm posts with a "trigger" contained inside, Mini-Cons could activate the [[gimmick]]s of other toys or simply mount on other toys. Because the Mini-Cons use a special kind of port, they cannot be mounted on 5 mm posts that aren't hollow. In theory, this means only toys with specific Powerlinx pegs can hold Mini-Cons. In ''practice'', this isn't the case at all.

Throughout the history of the ''Transformers'' franchise, for one reason or another, toys have come with 5 mm posts which are hollow, creating a kind of unintentional back-compatibility with many Mini-Cons. We'll list this back-compatibility in individual toy entries further down the page.

The other significant aspect of the Powerlinx pegs is that they act like regular 5 mm posts too. This means that you can use them to mount any weapons or accessories that are designed to mount on 5 mm posts. Does mounting a bunch of miniature cars on [[Starscream (Armada)#toys|''Armada'' Starscream's]] arms seem silly to you? Maybe it's time to use the guns from the [[Micromaster]] [[Anti-Aircraft Base]].
{{-}}

==Generation 1==
In the first few years of the toy line, partly because of the mix-and-match nature of the line itself, ''Transformers'' didn't have very standardised fist sizes. The ''[[Diaclone]]''-descended toys usually had no single standard, with only the toys with the biggest weapons or fists having 5 mm posts. The ''[[Micro Change]]''-descended toys were much more consistent about post size, using 5 mm posts on almost all of the toys with weapons or accessories, because of the size being one of the standard connectors for Microman toys.

As Generation 1 evolved 5 mm posts and ports became nearly universal. Only the switch to smaller toys with [[Action Master]]s changed this — a new, smaller, universal post size was used for that line. These smaller sized posts carried over into the UK Transformers, while in [[Japan]] the rise of Micromasters led to 5 mm staying predominant throughout the line.

===1984===
;AUTOBOTS
*[[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Optimus Prime]] — The only Autobot this year to use 5 mm posts, Prime's main rifle sadly has a terrible [[design flaw]] (that has '''never''' been corrected, despite all the reissues) which makes it much less interchangeable with other toys. The gun's handle is moulded in the wrong place, and there's a false handle where the real one should be. Prime has actually been retooled to allow him to hold the rifle better — by increasing the size of the rims on his fists. Too bad they didn't just put the rifle's handle post in the right place. In addition to the rifle, [[Roller (G1)|Roller]]'s [[fuel pump]] is also a 5 mm post. It's possible to use this to either give the pump to other toys or to pump up Roller with some heavy weaponry.

;DECEPTICONS
All the 1984 Decepticons use 5 mm posts in some capacity.
*[[Soundwave (G1)/toys|Soundwave]]
[[File:Ravage5mmcompatibility.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Shattered Glass Ravage prefers flowers.]]
*[[Buzzsaw (G1)|Buzzsaw]], [[Frenzy (G1)|Frenzy]], [[Laserbeak (G1)/toys|Laserbeak]], [[Rumble (G1)|Rumble]] and [[Ravage (G1)/toys|Ravage]] — Due to the post holes in their bodies, they can be pegged onto Mini-Con ports, or similar 5 mm posts.

*[[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]], [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys|Thundercracker]] and [[Skywarp (G1)/toys|Skywarp]] — Their wings ''and'' their weapons have 5 mm posts.

*[[Megatron (G1)/toys|Megatron]] — Most notably his large chrome rifle has a 5 mm post on it, allowing it to be given to other toys.

===1985===
;AUTOBOTS
*[[Grimlock (G1)/toys|Grimlock]] — Grimlock's fist holes are smaller than 5 mm (being the size of Rhisling's lower hilt), but ridges on the upper sections of his launcher and [[sword]] pegs and a ring on the upper part of the gun's peg make them 5 mm.
*[[Tracks (G1)|Tracks]] — Tracks' missile mount is on a 5 mm peg. This means Tracks can have any 5 mm peg weapons mounted over his head or on his car or flight modes. Possibly the only ''Diaclone''-based [[Autobot Cars|Autobot Car]] with a 5 mm weapon.
*[[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]]
*[[Topspin (G1)|Topspin]] and [[Twin Twist]] — These toys do NOT have 5 mm post holes, but their rifles have a 5 mm base to the gun peg, effectively creating a very shallow double-peg that allows their guns limited inter-changeability with toys with 5 mm fists.
*[[Perceptor (G1)|Perceptor]]

;DECEPTICONS
*[[Devastator (G1)|Devastator]] — Devastator's is a classic double-posted rifle. Devastator's fists are 5 mm holes, but he shares his rifle with [[Mixmaster (G1)|Mixmaster]] and his tiny, tiny fists.
*[[Dirge (G1)|Dirge]], [[Ramjet (G1)|Ramjet]] and [[Thrust (G1)|Thrust]] have the same 5 mm compatibility as Starscream and company from the previous year.
*[[Blitzwing (G1)|Blitzwing]] — The strange construction of Blitzwing's weapons and fists makes interchangeability... awkward, as his fist holes are on the sides instead of the top; the weapons are sculpted to still look like he's holding them normally. Of course, if you're a fan of punch daggers, or Blitzwing holding someone else's guns 'gangsta-style', then more power to you.

===1986===
1986 saw the introduction of the Transformers [[Special Teams]], or [[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]-style combiners. All of these combiners used 5 mm posts as standard to peg in their fists and feet in combined mode, meaning you could swap these parts between any of the combiners. The fists of the combined forms almost universally used 5 mm holes (all except [[Superion (G1)|Superion]] and [[Piranacon (G1)|Piranacon]]) and almost all the leaders of the teams (except [[Silverbolt (G1)|Silverbolt]]) used 5 mm posts for their fists.

The smaller members of the Special Teams almost all had small pistols or rifles that used variably compatible smaller posts, and larger alt mode weapons that used 5 mm posts — often taking advantage of post holes used for the combined form's fists or feet. The earlier toys often used weapons with 5 mm ports which would peg onto the robot — allowing those weapons to be pegged onto Mini-Con ports and other similar 5 mm posts. The later toys tended to use 5 mm posts which peg into ports on the toy.

;AUTOBOTS
[[File:Outback5mmcompatibility.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Where the bloody hell am I? Right here, mate. Right here!]]
*[[Outback (G1)|Outback]] — The only [[Mini Vehicle]] with a weapon at all, Outback sports a 5 mm post that lets him use all kinds of crazy weapons.
*[[Steeljaw (G1)|Steeljaw]] and [[Ramhorn (G1)|Ramhorn]] — But '''not''' [[Rewind (G1)|Rewind]] or [[Eject (G1)|Eject]], strangely. Ramhorn's peg holes are very loose.
*[[Superion (G1)|Superion]] — Barely. The [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbot]]s are the only Special Team whose leader doesn't use 5 mm posts, and who have no members with larger vehicle weapons which use 5 mm posts. Superion doesn't have 5 mm fists either. Only the posts and ports for the combined form's hands and feet are 5 mm posts. Superion even has what looks like a hollow 5 mm peg on the underside of his combined form's chest plate — however this peg is just slightly too big to be of use.
*[[Protectobot (G1)|The Protectobots]] — In the standard style of the Scramble City teams, described above.
*[[Wreck-Gar (G1)|Wreck-Gar]]
*[[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys|Ultra Magnus]] — Most of Magnus' accessories use 5 mm posts. Interestingly enough his rifle has two ways of being held — the large robot uses a larger peg than the small inner robot's 5 mm post. So you can only let other toys hold the gun in the same way as Magnus' inner robot.
*[[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]] — Uses 5 mm posts for his weapons, and his fists. He can happily wear any Scramble City fists instead of his own. [[Six-Gun]] and [[Scamper]] do not use 5 mm pegs for their weapons, however [[Slammer]] does. His turret is on a hollow 5 mm post so it can be mounted on (or rather under, most of the time) Mini-Cons!

;DECEPTICONS
*[[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]]
*[[Stunticon (G1)|The Stunticons]] — In the standard style of the Scramble City teams, described above.
*[[Combaticon (G1)|The Combaticons]] — In the standard style of the Scramble City teams, described above.
*[[Predacon (G1)|The Predacons]] — Unlike the Scramble City toys, all the Predacons use 5 mm posts as standard, with no accessories at all with smaller pegs, making all their weapons usable by [[Predaking (G1)|Predaking]].
*[[Scourge (G1)|Scourge]] — Only his head-mounted gun, his rifle uses a smaller peg.
*[[Galvatron (G1)/toys|Galvatron]] — However remember, [[Nightmare Planet|Galvatron's weapons pegs can be any size he wants!]]
*[[Trypticon (G1)|Trypticon]] — [[Full-Tilt (G1)|Full-Tilt]] does ''not'' use 5 mm posts. On the other hand, [[Brunt (G1)|Brunt's]] tank turret ''does'' use them. It's completely possible to mount the turret as an arm cannon for an ''Armada'' toy, or anyone else with 5 mm posts.

===1987===
By 1987, 5 mm posts had become almost universal. Only some smaller toys, and those toys without weapon accessories, didn't have them.

;AUTOBOTS
*[[Technobot (G1)|The Technobots]] — In the standard style of the Scramble City teams, described in the 1986 section above.
*[[Fastlane]] & [[Cloudraker (G1)|Cloudraker]]
*[[Punch (G1)|Punch-Counterpunch]]
*The [[Monsterbot (G1)|Monsterbot]]s
*The [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmasters]] — [[Kup (G1)#Targetmaster|Kup]], [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Targetmaster|Hot Rod]] and [[Blurr (G1)#Targetmaster|Blurr]] were [[retool]]ed to be 5 mm peg compatible so that they could use [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmasters]] this year. The other Targetmaster moulds were all made with 5 mm pegs in mind.

*The [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] — [[Fortress Maximus (G1)#Toys|Fortress Maximus]] was the only Headmaster not to use 5 mm pegs exclusively. Nearly all his accessories and the weapons for his smaller components were 5 mm pegs. However his larger rifles were so huge they used much, much larger peg sizes which are not compatible with any other Transformers mould.

;DECEPTICONS
*[[Terrorcon (G1)|The Terrorcons]] — [[Blot (G1)#Toys|Blot]] and [[Cutthroat (G1)#Toys|Cutthroat]] are the only small Special Teams members outside the Aerialbots not to have alt mode weapons with 5 mm posts. Blot has a backpack, and Cutthroat has a transforming tail weapon, instead.
*[[Slugfest (G1)|Slugfest]] & [[Overkill (G1)|Overkill]]
*[[Pounce]] & [[Wingspan]]
*[[Sixshot (G1)|Sixshot]]
*The [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmasters]] — [[Cyclonus (G1)/toys#Targetmaster|Cyclonus]] and [[Scourge (G1)#Targetmaster|Scourge]] were retooled to be able to use the 5 mm pegs associated with Targetmasters and released again as part of this range.
*The [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] — Scorponok is the only Decepticon Headmaster not to use 5 mm pegs universally. Most of his accessories use them, except for his four large double-barrelled cannons and his shield, which has a slightly wider peg hole. The shield does have a hollow 5 mm peg on it, though, allowing you to mount a Mini-Con on the shield. Sweet! Oh yeah, that does mean, by the way, that his tremendously enormous rifle does use both 5 mm pegs and 5 mm peg holes. Fasttrack doesn't use 5 mm pegs for his hands, but his arms are mounted on 5 mm pegs, so you can give him all sorts of crazy gun arms.

===1988===
[[File:Pretender5mmcompatibility.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|5 mm pegs on Pretenders: A demonstration.]]
1988 introduced a new line dependent on the 5 mm peg, the Pretenders. As mentioned above, in the section on multiple posts and double posts, the Pretender shells all had 5 mm pegs, while their robots had smaller (less universally sized) pegs. Pretenders usually had at least one weapon (sometimes more) that was meant for both the shell and the inner robot. For the 1988 Pretenders, these weapons had multiple pegs on them, allowing different components to hold them in different ways. These weapons were also usually a part of the Pretender's [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], and mounted on them in that mode using 5 mm pegs.

Later Pretenders used double-posting instead of multiple-posting, so that the inner robots often lacked the 5 mm compatibility in their vehicle modes that earlier Pretenders enjoyed. But for 1988 it was 5 mm compatible city!

;AUTOBOTS
*[[Grand Slam (G1)|Grand Slam]] & [[Raindance]]
*The [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmasters]]
*The [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] — Unlike in 1987, the 1988 Autobot Headmasters had two sets of weapons with different post sizes. There was a single main rifle for the main robot with a 5 mm post, and two smaller pistols that were both vehicle mode weapons and antennae for the robots' head.
*The [[Powermaster]]s. — [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#PMOP|Powermaster Prime]] in particular is notable because his weapons are massive, badass and freakin' awesome. You know they are. Admit it.
*[[Quickswitch]]
*The [[Pretender]]s — Including the regular Pretenders, [[Pretender Beast]]s and [[Gunrunner (G1)|Gunrunner]], the [[Pretender Vehicle]].

;DECEPTICONS
[[File:Skalor5mmcompatibility.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|That gun mode stinks!]]
*[[Seacon (G1)|The Seacons]] — Because of his Targetmaster gimmick, [[Piranacon (G1)|Piranacon]] is one of only two (the other being Superion, the piker) Generation 1 combiner robot without 5 mm post hole fists. Instead he has special ports for the square pegs which are used as part of the Special Teams style combination. Each of the five smaller Seacons also come with a special Targetmaster stand which allows them to use their gun forms independent of Piranacon. The stand is divided into three parts, a connector, a post and a base. The post is moulded to look like a large rifle and has multiple pegs on it (of different sizes) letting it be held as a weapon both by the small Seacons and by anyone with a 5 mm fist. The connector is even cooler, since it has a 5 mm post hole and can be used to mount the Seacons on Mini-Con ports or other similar gun posts when in gun mode. It can also be used to make any Scramble City style combiner limb 5 mm post compatible, so any of them can become a giant Mini-Con. How awesome is that?
*[[Squawktalk (G1)|Squawktalk]] & [[Beastbox (G1)|Beastbox]]
*The [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmasters]]
*The [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] — The small Decepticon Headmasters did not have two sets of weapons like their Autobot counterparts and relied entirely on 5 mm posts.
*The [[Powermaster]]s — Doubledealer came with a special Powermaster Engine cover with a 5 mm post on it. The post is hollow, allowing you to mount a Mini-Con on it.
*The [[Pretender]]s — Including the regular Pretenders, [[Pretender Beast]]s and [[Roadgrabber]], the [[Pretender Vehicle]].

===1989===
This year introduced the [[Micromaster]]s together with a ''truckload'' more Pretenders. The Micromasters emphasized inter-compatibility in a way Transformers hadn't really done before. All the bases were able to connect through special ramps, and all the weapons for the bases used 5 mm posts. The Micromasters themselves all had small ports in their feet that corresponded to small posts all over the bases — letting you stand them freely. The Micromasters' association with 5 mm pegs would continue through into the Japanese toy lines, and would be reflected in the Mini-Cons who would come down the pipeline many years later.

As mentioned above, the Pretenders this year were a little less 5 mm compatible. While the first-year Pretenders generally had 5 mm ports on their vehicle modes as well as their Pretender shells, those ports disappeared on most of the inner robots for this year. Instead of using multiple posts on the same weapon, more toys this year used a double-post.

;AUTOBOTS
Literally all the Autobot Pretenders from this year used 5 mm posts. All of the Micromaster bases and transports except for [[Overload (G1)|Overload]] and [[Hot House (Micromaster)|Hot House]] used 5 mm posts for their weapon accessories. Hot House and Overload don't really have any accessories, so that's understandable.
*[[Pincher (G1)|Pincher]], [[Doubleheader]] and [[Longtooth]]
*[[Classic Pretender]]s — [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys|Bumblebee]], [[Grimlock (G1)/toys|Grimlock]] and [[Jazz (G1)/toys|Jazz]]. These toys were re-released without their shells as [[Legends (G1)|Legends]]. They only came with their smaller weapons, which are double-posted. While the inner robots can't hold 5 mm weapons their weapons can be used with other toys. Bumblebee and Jazz's guns were switched for the Legends release, so if you're pedantic about continuity feel free to give Jazz's gun to Classics Bumblebee without feeling guilty.
*[[Crossblades (G1)|Crossblades]] and [[Vroom (G1)|Vroom]]
*[[Skyhammer (G1)|Skyhammer]]

*[[Erector (G1)|Erector]] and his [[Crane]] — Erector's weapons are all 5 mm posts. While Erector's trailer hitch is not a 5 mm post it is hollow and works as a 5 mm port, allowing Erector to connect to other TFs and bases like a Mini-Con.
*[[Ironworks (Micromaster)|Ironworks]]' [[Ironworks (facility)|Construction station]] — In station mode, Ironworks's base has two hollow 5 mm posts on its scaffolding section. These are completely compatible with Mini-Cons. In windmill... errr... radar tower mode these two pegs are used to mount the scaffolding to the tower, so aren't accessible.
*[[Groundshaker]]'s [[ATV]] and [[Countdown (G1)|Countdown]]'s [[Rocket Base|Rocket base]]

;DECEPTICONS
All the Decepticon Micromaster bases and transports were 5 mm compatible this year in some capacity. The Pretenders also, except for the Monster Pretenders.
*[[Monstructor (G1)|Monstructor]] — As with nearly all combiners, Monstructor uses 5 mm fist holes. However none of the individual Monster Pretenders do. Their shell covers sometimes have relatively inaccessible 5 mm posts or ports for Monstructor's accessories, but that is more-or-less the extent of their compatibility.
*[[Octopunch (G1)|Octopunch]], [[Stranglehold]] and [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]]
*[[Classic Pretender]]s [[Starscream (G1)/toys|Starscream]] — Also available as a Legends figure without any of the 5 mm compatibility conferred by his shell.
*[[Thunderwing (G1)|Thunderwing]]
*[[Roadblock (G1)|Roadblock]]

*[[Flattop (G1)|Flattop]]'s [[Aircraft carrier]] and [[Roughstuff]] and his [[Military transport]] — Roughstuff's missiles and turret are the only large Micromaster weapons without 5 mm posts, making him far less compatible with other toys than he should be. However his trailer hitch is a 5 mm post and port. That might be of... some use.
*[[Greasepit (Micromaster)|Greasepit]]'s [[Greasepit (facility)|Gas station]] and [[Airwave (Micromaster)|Airwave]]'s [[Airwave (facility)|Airport]] — Greasepit has a host of little 5 mm post accessories that aren't weapons like a set of petrol pumps and a street sign. Airwave's compatibility is limited to having several 5 mm ports on the top of his base's station mode.
*[[Skyhopper]]'s [[Helicopter]] and [[Skystalker (G1)|Skystalker]]'s [[Thunder Arrow|Interstellar shuttle]]

===1990===
[[Action Master]]s dropped the 5 mm posts in favour of a smaller standard-sized peg for hand-held weapons, obviously due to the smaller size of the figures' fists (these holes are the right size for vintage [[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]] weapons and accessories). However, the backpack accessories for the individually carded figures use 5 mm pegs to attach to the screw-holes in the figures' backs, making them compatible with weapons for larger toys. Some of the bases use 5 mm posts for their weapon systems as well. But for the most part, this was the end of 5 mm pegs being universal in Transformers for a very long time; it wouldn't happen again until the [[Unicron Trilogy]], almost a decade later.

;AUTOBOTS
[[File:Lionizer5mmdemo.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Another example of why beards freakin' rock.]]
*[[Lionizer (G1)|Lionizer]] — Because of his beard, he actually has a double-post, so he has a 5 mm post, though it's very tight.

*[[Prowl (G1)/toys#Action Master|Prowl]]'s [[Turbo Cycle (G1)|Turbo Cycle]]. — The cycle's engine intakes have a 5 mm port, so they can be mounted on Mini-Con pegs if you'd like. The wheel section uses a 5 mm post to connect to the cycle, as does the hinged side-cover section, which could also be posted on Prowl's back to approximate his original toy's door "wings". The rest of his accessories use the more standard smaller pegs used by Action Masters.
*[[Over-Run (G1)|Over-Run]]. — While both he and his helicopter aren't really 5 mm compatible, he ''does'' have hand-held missile launchers with 5 mm post ''holes'' on them. They can be mounted on Mini-Con ports, or you can mount 5 mm guns on top of them while Over-Run is holding them — but good luck keeping his arms up. There's a couple of posts on the back of his helicopter as well.
*[[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#AM|Optimus Prime's]] [[Armored Convoy]] — Has a bunch of black guns and orange guns with 5 mm posts. Yes, you can give all these weapons to Classics Primes. The black guns have hollow posts and so can be mounted on Mini-Cons. The entire Armored Convoy, both cab and trailer, is littered with 5 mm ports.

*[[Missile Launcher]] (with [[Retro]] & [[Surge (G1)|Surge]]) and [[Tanker Truck]] (with [[Pipeline]] & [[Gusher]]) — Both bases have a new mould Micromaster ramp with a double-peg on it. Unfortunately it's very hard to access, and not very effective as a shield for other toys. The combiner bases also extensively use 5 mm ports and pegs for all their weapons, and even their main combining pegs. This means they can be connected to each other, or to any other 5 mm pegs or ports.
*[[Battlefield Headquarters]] with [[Full-Barrel]] & [[Overflow]]

;DECEPTICONS
*[[Megatron (G1)/toys#ActionMaster|Megatron's]] [[Neutro-Fusion Tank]]
*[[Gutcruncher (G1)|Gutcruncher]]'s [[Stratotronic Jet]] — His missiles have 5 mm post holes, rather than 5 mm posts. This means you can mount his missiles on mini-con ports or other similar 5 mm posts.

[[File:Anti-aircraftbase multiconfig.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Blackout and shout!]]
*[[Cannon Transport]] with [[Terror-Tread]] & [[Cement-Head]] — Features the same 5 mm compatibility as the Autobot Combiner Transports.
*[[Anti-Aircraft Base]] with [[Blackout (G1)|Blackout]] & [[Spaceshot]] — Is one of the most versatile 5 mm-compatible toys of all time. All up the base features eight 5 mm ports, seven 5 mm posts and a variety of different accessories. The base's main guns are designed to peg onto 5 mm posts so can be used with mini-con ports. The base's radar equipment and additional weapons are all designed with 5 mm posts. Even the base's ramp features a 5 mm port, rather than the limited 5 mm post of the Micromaster Combiner Transports. The four 5 mm posts on the base proper are hollow, also allowing them to be used as mini-con ports.

==UK Generation 1==
After Generation 1 ended in the US it continued in the UK unabated. Well, a little bit abated. It wasn't as big as it was. The UK line at first consisted of redecos of Japanese toys and Action Masters that hadn't made it to America. After that they continued to produce their own toys. Okay... but what does that have to do with 5 mm pegs? Well, sadly, not much. The UK lines did not make extensive use of 5 mm pegs, even when they really should have (we're looking at you, Predator jets). The compatibility of these toys is incredibly limited.

===1991===
The Action Masters from this year didn't use 5 mm pegs at all, meaning that there were only three toys this year with 5 mm pegs.

;AUTOBOTS
[[File:Flame5mmdemo.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Ready for a Flame war!]]
*[[Flame (Motorvator)|Flame]], [[Gripper (G1)|Gripper]], [[Lightspeed (Motorvator)|Lightspeed]]. — The [[Motorvator]]s, being recycled Japanese toys, used 5 mm pegs as standard for their weapons. Their weapons had two sets of pegs letting them be held as swords or guns.

===1992===
This year introduced the Turbomasters and Predators. Even though both sets of toys (who all have massive guns) would have benefitted from 5 mm posts, only two toys out of the entire line have them.

;AUTOBOTS
*[[Rotorstorm (G1)|Rotorstorm]]

[[File:Stalker variousconfigs.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Stalk 'er? I hardly knew 'er.]]
;DECEPTICONS
*[[Stalker (G1)|Stalker]] — Unlike Rotorstorm, his hands are not 5 mm peg holes. Instead, the ports on his shoulders and back are 5 mm pegs — his massive missile and his radar dish are on 5 mm posts. His lack of 5 mm hands is made up for by two screw holes on his wrists which are 5 mm holes, allowing him to hold guns there.

==Japanese Generation 1==
There's not a lot to say about Japanese Generation 1. The main thing is that there are more Micromasters. More Micromasters means more 5 mm pegs.

The first few lines that the Japanese marketed independently were mostly reuses of American moulds, with only a few differences. Basically, if the American version can use 5 mm pegs, so can the Japanese version. In these cases, there's only a handful of toys that need pointing out as independent and unique but the overall line was generally a mess of 5 mm pegs everywhere.

===Headmasters===
Most of this line was just American release toys repackaged. Basically all of them were 5 mm compatible. Almost all of the moulds unique to the Japanese line were also 5 mm compatible.

;CYBERTRONS
*[[Ricochet (Headmasters)|Stepper]] and [[Artfire]]. — Jazz and Inferno, two previously non-compatible toys, were retooled and redecoed in Headmasters and used as Targetmasters. Artfire's fists are expanded to allow him to hold his targetmaster gun [[Nightstick (Headmasters)|Nightstick]]. Stepper meanwhile has Jazz's missile launcher replaced by a plug-in port to allow him to use his Targetmaster unit [[Nebulon (Headmasters)|Nebulon]] as a shoulder cannon.
*<s>Billy</s> <s>Blaster</s> [[Blaster (G1)|Twincast]] — Redeco and slight retool of G1 Blaster.

*[[Graphy]], [[Noise]], [[Dile]] and [[Zaur (G1)|Zaur]]
*[[Raiden]] — Like Devastator before him (well, sorta), Raiden can use 5 mm weapons while his components cannot.

;DESTRONS
*[[Soundwave (G1)/toys|Soundblaster]] — Redeco and slight retool of G1 Soundwave.

===Masterforce===
Again, Masterforce is almost entirely American moulds, but this time there's more redecos. There's a few retools, and a handful of new moulds too, with 5 mm compatibility.

;CYBERTRONS
*[[Metalhawk (G1)|Metalhawk]] — He's a Pretender. And what have we learned so far? That's right: Pretenders are 5 mm compatible.
*[[Ginrai (human)|Super Ginrai]] and [[Godbomber]] — Ginrai is a retool of Powermaster Optimus Prime, with brand new hands. Brand new retractable 5 mm hands! (To replace his old unretractable 5 mm hands!) Godbomber is designed to be compatible with Ginrai, to use his accessories and to merge with him, so he gets to be 5 mm compatible too. Sweet.
*[[Grand Maximus]] — Fortress Maximus with a new deco and some new accessories. He's compatible with 5 mm pegs in the same way as Fortress Maximus, and his new parts are mostly a Pretender shell with some extra weapons. Pretender shell? Well, we know what that means!

;DESTRONS
*[[Overlord (G1)|Overlord]] — Does not have 5 mm peg holes for his hands, but has limited compatibility thanks to a handful of 5 mm holes and some 5 mm pegs on his smaller accessories. This toy was also released in Europe in 1992.
*[[Browning]] — As well as multiple sets of fists, Browning also has 5 mm post holes on his shoulders for added shoulder cannon action.
*[[Scorponok (G1)|BlackZarak]] — A retool of G1 Scorponok with a new [[robot mode]] head and some new weapons. He's 5 mm compatible in the same ways as Scorponok, but with updated [[Gold Plastic Syndrome]] compatibility to boot.

===Victory===
Victory was radically different from the American toy line of the time. Most of the toys were unique to Japan, and most of them had 5 mm compatibility to some extent.

;CYBERTRONS
*[[Star Saber (G1)|Star Saber]], [[Ginrai (robot)|Victory Leo]] and their combined form Victory Saber
*[[Blacker]], [[Laster]], [[Braver]] and their combined form [[Road Caesar]].
*[[Landcross (G1)|Landcross]] — While the individual components are not generally 5 mm compatible, Landcross has 5 mm fists. Some of his components have 5 mm holes on their vehicle modes for storing merge parts.
*[[Galaxy Shuttle]] — Dude's basically a Micromaster toy, of course he's 5 mm compatible.
*[[Greatshot]] — A retool and redeco of Sixshot.

;DESTRONS
*[[Liokaiser]] — As with most every merge group, Liokaiser's fists are 5 mm pegs. His individual components are mostly not 5 mm compatible. [[Leozack]] has 5 mm ports, and [[Guyhawk]] and [[Hellbat (G1)|Hellbat]] have 5 mm posts, used in merging. [[Killbison]]'s tank mode guns are on a 5 mm plug, which becomes Liokaiser's hand-held weapons. None of these ports and plugs are particularly accessible or useful. Unless you want to give Leozack gun knees, which... who wouldn't want to?
*[[Dinoking]] — A redeco of Monstructor with new Pretender shells, he's 5 mm compatible in exactly the same way.
*[[Black Shadow (G1)|Black Shadow]] and [[Blue Bacchus]] — Retools and redecos of Crossblades and Thunderwing.

===Zone===
Zone is basically the Japanese equivalent of the American Micromasters line. Most of the toys were straight repackagings of the American releases, with basically no changes. The rest were either new Micromaster bases (with 5 mm weapons) or redecos of American bases. 5 mm compatibility had been more or less the norm for Japanese Generation 1, and Zone would cement their place with only the individual Micromasters not being fully 5 mm compatible.

;CYBERTRONS
*[[Dai Atlas (G1)|Dai Atlas]], [[Sonic Bomber (G1)|Sonic Bomber]], [[Roadfire|Road Fire]] and their merged form [[Big Powered]]
*[[Landshaker]] and [[Sky Hyper]] — Redecos of Groundshaker and Sky Hopper's bases with new pilots and the same ole weapons.

;DESTRONS
*[[Metrotitan (G1)|Metrotitan]] — Dude, a crazy Decepticon redeco of Metroplex. Just as compatible with 5 mm pegs as Metroplex ever was. But more blue.

===Return of Convoy===
[[File:Microtrailer versatility.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Is there nothing they can't do?!]]
Yup, Optimus Prime got a new toy this year. Yawn. What we're really interested in is two brand new concepts. First of all, all the Micromaster patrols were re-released this year, and packaged with brand new Micro Trailers. Secondly we were introduced to six-member Micromaster combiner teams which merge more traditionally than the American Micromaster combiners.

The Micro Trailers were simple launchers for the Micromasters, and there were (including the three packaged with the bulks from this year) 14 in all. From a 5 mm compatibility point of view, these things are incredible. They're designed to combine, pegging into each other. The result is two hollow 5 mm posts, and two 5 mm ports on each little trailer. You can load them up with weapons, plug Mini-Cons into them or just have larger robots hold them as weapons. Just to add to it, they've got ports for American Micromaster Combiners to tow them with, connectors for Micromaster ramps, and a tab to let Sky Garry carry them. Interactivity? You freakin' bet.

The six member combiners are significant because they are the first (and to date '''only''') combiner teams to use 5 mm pegs to connect actual robots together. The six Micromasters in each team combine around a frame that makes up the torso, head, and thighs of the robot. The shoulders of this frame use hollow 5 mm pegs to connect its arms. It's significant because it means that the arm components for all the six member Micromaster combiners have large 5 mm ports, allowing them to peg onto 5 mm posts — like Mini-Con pegs, for example.

;CYBERTRONS
*[[Grandus (G1)|Grandus]], [[Sky Garry (G1)|Sky Garry]], and [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Star Convoy]]
*[[Micro Trailer]]s #0 to 12, and Star Convoy's Micro Trailer.
[[File:Micromerge5mmcompatibility.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb]]
*[[Sixliner]] — Sixliner was the first of the six member Micromaster combiner teams. He had 5 mm compatible fists, a 5 mm compatible gun (with two hollow 5 mm pegs on the side) and oddly enough 5 mm compatible toes. His combiner parts can all become carriages for the train modes of his individual Micromasters. His main torso section has three hollow 5 mm posts on it, allowing it to mount Mini-Cons, or to be held by larger robots as a strange gun (which you can then mount Mini-Cons on). Sixliner's arms, [[Leaf]] and [[Alan (G1)|Alan]] connect to him via 5 mm ports that can be used to peg them on any 5 mm posts.

===Operation Combination===
The last gasp of Generation 1 in Japan. This line was a mish-mash of new moulds, redecos of old moulds and UK imports.

The most important part of the line from our point of view right now is the new six member Micromaster combiners. There was a retool of Sixliner, and 3 entirely new mould teams. The three new teams use a generic body frame which uses far more 5 mm pegs than the Sixliner body. The head and feet, as well as the shoulders, now connect by 5 mm posts. This new versatility meant that four members of the team, not just two, could peg onto 5 mm posts. The parts of these new combiners could also merge into a jet — but if you merge them into a jet you can't use the parts as weapons for larger robots, and who wants that? No one.

==Generation 2==
Come 1993 and ''Transformers'' was given a rebirth, both in the US (who hadn't had toys on the shelves since 1990) and in the rest of the world, called ''Generation 2''. This toyline was a mixture of vintage Generation 1 ''[[Diaclone]]''-based toys, redecos of toys released in the UK and later on a whole slew of brand new moulds created just for that line.

''Generation 2'' was only moderately 5 mm-friendly. The old moulds retained their old compatibilities, and the new moulds tended to be much smaller toys that weren't able to have large fist holes. Still, there are a handful of new and interesting toys with 5 mm compatibility, and many of them would go on to be prominent toys in later lines as well.

===1993===
;AUTOBOTS
*[[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Optimus Prime]] — This toy is a redeco and retool of Generation 1 Optimus Prime. The main difference now is the addition of a voice pack with two 5 mm post holes on it and the addition of two brand-new hand-held missile launchers with 5 mm posts. This added versatility has basically never been carried forwards to other re-releases of the mould.
*[[Jazz (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Jazz]] and [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#Generation 2 2|Sideswipe]] — These two (redecos of the G1 toys) are NOT 5 mm compatible, but their missile launchers have a double-post, making their '''guns''' 5 mm compatible.

;DECEPTICONS
*[[Devastator (G1)#Generation 2|Devastator]] — This toy was released twice in two different new decos, but it's still the same tooling as the Generation 1 toy with the same compatibilities.
*[[Ramjet (G1)#Generation 2 2|Ramjet]] and [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Starscream]] — Redecos of the Generation 1 toys with the same compatibilities. They also have new missile launchers (that actually launch!) and a new sound box, but neither of these really adds any new compatibility to the toys.
*[[Megatron (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Megatron]] — This is the first new Gen2 exclusive mould created for the American toy line. It's also the first new mould with 5 mm fists.

===1994===
;AUTOBOTS
*[[Superion (G1)#Generation 2|Superion]] — A redeco of the Generation 1 toy, with the same very very limited compatibility, but with the added bonus of Gold Plastic Syndrome.
*[[Silverbolt (G1)#Generation 2 2|Silverbolt]] — A redeco of the Generation 1 toy, unlike the original toy this Silverbolt is retooled to have 5 mm post holes on his wings, for a pair of new missile launchers. Silverbolt's launchers are the same basic mould as those used by the Skyraiders, but were retooled to have a double-post so that Superion could hold them. Because he doesn't have 5 mm fists. Because Superion is a poopy-head.
*[[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Hero Optimus Prime]]
*[[Electro#Generation 2 2|Electro]] and [[Volt#Generation 2 2|Volt]].

;DECEPTICONS
*[[Bruticus (G1)#Generation 2|Bruticus]] and the [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticons]] — A slightly retooled and extensively redecoed version of the original toy with the same basic compatibilities. [[Onslaught (G1)#Generation 2 2|Onslaught]] also has a new missile launcher which is 5 mm compatible.
*[[Megatron (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Hero Megatron]]
*[[Sizzle (G2)#Generation 2 2|Sizzle]] and [[Jolt (G2)#Generation 2 2|Jolt]]

===1995===
The last year of ''Generation 2'' was getting more and more experimental, with toys with all kinds of different gimmicks, all kinds of brand new features. Unfortunately this year also saw a severe downsizing of the toys — smaller toys became the standard. That left room for only one toy this year with 5 mm fists and accessories.

;AUTOBOTS
*[[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Laser Optimus Prime]] — Probably because of a decided downturn in the ''size'' of individual toys in 1995, Laser Optimus Prime is the '''only''' toy this year with 5 mm pegs. His sword, laser cannon, and missile launcher have 5 mm handles.

==Beast Wars==
[[File:Optimusprimal5mmposts.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Share and share alike.]]

After ''Generation 2'', 5 mm posts took a pasting. Suddenly they just weren't standard any more. If ''Generation 2'' was experimental in its last days, then ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' was even more experimental. There were basically no singular standards for this line. Characters were completely self-contained [[play pattern]]s, based around their animal modes. As the line evolved general gimmicks, again based on the aesthetics of the toy rather than their play pattern, began to dominate. The only place that 5 mm post holes were generally universal were the larger scale Ultra toys who mostly featured 5 mm hands.

Tolerances are a big issue with ''Beast Wars'' toys with 5 mm posts, the following list is as comprehensive as it can be, but you might find you struggle to use the 5 mm compatibility on some of your toys. In the testing phase different samples ranged from impossibly tight, to perfect, to really loose.

===1996===
;MAXIMALS
*[[Dinobot (BW)#Toys|Dinobot]] — Dinobot's weapons and accessories and hands are all 5 mm posts. This is great, seeing as this mould was released again, and again, and again. His famous [[Cyber-slash tail weapon|rotating blade]] weapon has a 5 mm post hole in it that allows it to mount on a 5 mm post on his dinosaur mode back. This is especially useful for mounting the tail weapon on his back in robot mode.
*[[Polar Claw]]
*[[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#Beast Wars|Ultra Optimus Primal]]
*[[Wolfang (Maximal)|Wolfang]] — Has 5 mm screw holes in his robot back, and a non-screw 5 mm hole in his head — these are almost useless. However, his waist kibble has [[Mini-Con]]-compatible pegs, as does the front of his shield.

===1997===
;MAXIMALS
*[[Grimlock (G1)/toys#Beast Wars|Grimlock]] — A [[redeco]] of the ''Beast Wars'' Dinobot mould with the same compatibility.
*[[Ironhide (G1)/toys#Beast Wars|Ironhide]] and [[Magnaboss (BW)#Beast Wars|Magnaboss]] — [[Silverbolt (G1)#Beast Wars|Silverbolt]] and [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Beast Wars|Prowl]] are not 5 mm compatible, but Ironhide, Magnaboss' sword, and Magnaboss are. The small hollow pegs on Ironhide's elephant shell halves are ''not'' 5 mm, but the size of the inner hole is such that they ''do'' grip Mini-Cons.
*[[B'Boom]]

;PREDACONS
*[[Ram Horn#Toys|Ram Horn]] and [[Tripredacus#Toys|Tripredacus]] — Ramhorn has 5 mm hands, giving Tripredacus one 5 mm hand too. The other members of the team are not 5 mm compatible.
*[[Inferno (BW)#Toys|Inferno]]

===1998===
;MAXIMALS
*[[Cheetor (BW)/toys#Beast Wars|Transmetal Cheetor]] — His fists are an unconventional shape, but hold 5 mm weapons just fine.
*[[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#Beast Wars|Transmetal Optimus Primal]]
*[[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#Beast Wars|Optimal Optimus]] — While he doesn't have 5 mm peg holes for his fists, he does have 5 mm pegs on his wrists, (on angles, so their use is limited) and he ''does'' have hollow 5 mm pegs (perfect for Mini-Cons) on his rifle! On his shoulders are a couple of other 5 mm pegs too.

*[[Torca (BW)|Torca]]

;PREDACONS
*[[Megatron (BW)/toys#Beast Wars|Transmetal Megatron]]
*[[Rampage (BW)#Beast Wars|Transmetal Rampage]]
*[[Antagony (BW)#Beast Wars|Botcon Antagony]]

===1999===
;MAXIMALS
*[[Optimus Minor#Toys|Optimus Minor]] — On his own, Optimus Minor is not 5 mm compatible. However, his tail weapon uses two different 5 mm pegs — one of which is hollow, perfect for Mini-Cons! The allows him to hold a Mini-Con in robot mode.
*[[Tigerhawk#Toys|Tigerhawk]]

;PREDACONS
*[[Megatron (BW)/toys#Beast Wars|Transmetal II Megatron]]

===Beast Wars II===
''[[Transformers: Beast Wars (Japanese toyline)#1998 (Beast Wars II)|Beast Wars II]]'' was a Japanese only line capitalizing on the success of ''Beast Wars''. It's mostly a [[redeco]] line, with a handful of brand new toys or moulds. There's a bunch of old toys in this line with 5 mm compatibility, and a few retools and redecos. There's only one new mould. Lio Convoy looks like he should have them, but his fists are actually a bit bigger than the 5 mm standard.

[[File:BWII-toy Autolauncher.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Autolauncher, a canceled ''Generation 2 toy.]]

;CYBERTRONS
*[[Lio Convoy]]
*[[Santon]] and [[Magnaboss (BWII)|Magnaboss]] — Redecos of Beast Wars Ironhide and Magnaboss.

;DESTRONS
*[[Autolauncher]]
*[[Megastorm]]
*[[Megastorm|Gigastorm]]
*[[Thrust (BW)|Thrustor]]
*[[God Neptune]] — A redeco of the [[Seacon (G1)|Seacon]]s minus [[Nautilator]], with most of the same 5 mm compatibilities as the original group. They were released in a gift set, and also lacked the individual gun stands that the original Seacons had. Man... sucky.
*[[Galvatron (BW)|Galvatron]]

===Beast Wars Neo===
[[File:BWN-toy Stampy.jpg|thumb|upright=1.5|That peg placement ''could'' be worse...]]
;CYBERTRONS
*[[Big Convoy]] — Includes a 5 mm peg-compatible Matrix.
*[[Longrack (BW)|Longrack]]
*[[Break]] — 5 mm peg under each wing to use him as a missile launcher
*[[Stampy (BW)|Stampy]] — 5 mm peg on his chest (with embossed Maximal symbol on the end) so his blade weapon mode can be held

;DESTRONS
*[[Hardhead (BW)|Hardhead]]
*[[Elphaorpha]]
{{-}}

==Machine Wars==
[[File:MW-toy Soundwave.jpg|thumb|upright=1.00|"They may take my weapons, but they'll never take my 5 mm holes!"]]
[[Machine Wars: Transformers#Toys|Machine Wars]] also had a lack of support for the 5 mm peg, although this stems from the line re-using old European exclusive molds, or unused molds from Generation 2. However, the two releases in the Megas size did make use of 5 mm posts. As they were once [[Rotorstorm (G1)#Generation 1|Rotorstorm]] and [[Stalker (G1)#Generation 1|Stalker]] respectively, their use of 5 mm ports are identical to their original releases.

===1997===
;AUTOBOTS
*[[Sandstorm (G1)#Machine Wars|Sandstorm]]

;DECEPTICONS
*[[Soundwave (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|Soundwave]]

==Beast Machines==
''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' saw the almost complete abandonment of the 5 mm peg for its toys. The introduction of uniquely moulded hands and toys with few if any accessories meant that 5 mm peg holes were no longer needed. In fact, in all of ''Beast Machines'', there is only one toy with deliberate 5 mm peg holes for hands. There's others with 5 mm screw holes or 5 mm peg holes that can be used to make them compatible with older weapons, but for the most part, ''Beast Machines'' emphasized completely self-contained toys.

On the flip side, ''Beast Machines'' was one of the first'' Transformers'' lines to introduce vehicles and separately sold weapon-accessories for other toys, in the form of the [[Beast Rider]]s and [[Deployer (BM)|Deployer]] assortments. These toys, while emphasizing interactivity with other toys, did so without the use of pegs.

===2000===
;VEHICONS
*[[Megatron (BW)/toys#Beast Machines|Megatron]] — The only toy in the entire line that's deliberately 5 mm compatible, the Mega-sized Megatron toy has a single 5 mm fist in robot mode.

==2001 ''Robots in Disguise''==
Unlike the much more focused and consistently designed ''Beast Machines'', [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|2001 ''Robots in Disguise'']] was an absolute hodge-podge of a line. It used a combination of new moulds, vintage moulds, and contemporary redecos that saw toys from all over the place incorporated into the line. This was both good and bad for 5 mm peg enthusiasts—mostly bad, since the majority of the redecos came from ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' [[Go-Bot (G2)|Go-Bot]]s or ''Beast Wars'' and ''Beast Machines'' toys.

The handful of brand new toys in the line didn't really emphasize interactivity through compatibility of accessories. Instead they emphasized interactivity through figure combination. Still, there's a handful of stuff there worthy of inclusion here.

===2001===
;AUTOBOTS
*[[Wedge (RID)#Toys|Wedge]], [[Heavy Load (RID)#Toys|Heavy Load]], [[Hightower (RID)#Toys|Hightower]], [[Grimlock (RID 2001)#Toys|Grimlock]] and [[Landfill (RID)#Toys|Landfill]] — Grimlock is the only member of the team lacking 5 mm fists, but fortunately he makes up for it in combined form where he forms a part with 5 mm compatible hands (well, claws) for Landfill. In fact all of Landfill's configurations are 5 mm compatible. Woo!

*[[Optimus Prime (RID)#Toys|Optimus Prime]] and [[Ultra Magnus (RID)#Toys|Ultra Magnus]] — Both use 5 mm posts extensively. Only the smaller, non-super mode Prime actually has 5 mm FISTS. Prime's super mode lacks 5 mm fists, or fists at all. Omega Prime's and Ultra Magnus's hands do have 5 mm holes on the palms, and Magnus's thumbs have 5 mm posts. Prime is also covered in a bunch of hollow 5 mm posts that can be used as mini-con ports, and both have 5 mm posts and holes out the wazoo.

;DECEPTICONS/PREDACONS
*[[Ruination (RID)#Toys|Ruination]] — Ruination is a [[redeco]] and slight [[retool]] of the Generation 1 [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticon]]s. Initially, in ''Robots in Disguise'', all five components were released separately, though later on they were released only as gift sets. The main difference to the moulds is that the Combaticons' weapons were retooled so they could create two super weapons for Ruination. These super weapons are 5 mm compatible.
*[[Megatron (RID)#Toys|Megatron]] and [[Megatron (RID)|Galvatron]]

===2002===
;DECEPTICONS/PREDACONS
*[[Cryotek (RID)#Toys|Cryotek]] — A redeco of ''Beast Wars'' [[Megatron (BW)/toys#TM2|Transmetal 2 Megatron]], has 5 mm fists just the same.
*[[Scourge (RID)#Toys|Scourge]] — A redeco of ''Generation 2'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#LaserOptimusPrime|Laser Optimus Prime]] with all his compatibilities.

===2003===
;AUTOBOTS
*[[Landfill (RID)|Landfill]] — Same compatibilities as ever, but now in yellow! Plus, it's a gift set!

;DECEPTICONS
*[[Scourge (RID)#Destructicon|Destructicon Scourge]] — A redeco of ''Generation 2'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#HeroOptimusPrime|Hero Optimus Prime]].
*[[Bludgeon (RID 2001)|Destructicon Bludgeon]] — A redeco of ''Generation 2'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Hero|Hero Megatron]].
*[[Ruination (RID)#UrbanCamo|Ruination]] — Same as before, but now more urban! And in a gift set!

==Armada==
For 5 mm peg addicts, the Unicron Trilogy was a godsend. It was the first Transformers toyline not only to feature 5 mm pegs as standard on nearly every single toy, but also to advertise this interactivity. It's all down to one thing: Mini-Cons. Mini-Cons and their contribution are covered a bit earlier in this article, but it's important here to mention their... well...importance.

Mini-Cons each came with a 5 mm peg hole, with a smaller (1mm?) peg imbedded inside it. Mini-Cons could then plug onto hollow (but NOT solid) 5 mm pegs, usually referred to as Mini-Con hardpoints. Some of these hardpoints included small triggers which were pushed down by the smaller peg inside the Mini-Con's 5 mm post hole. This activated gimmicks on the larger toys, and is why the Mini-Con don't simply have 5 mm post holes.

The inclusion of Mini-Cons as a set of figures compatible with all larger Armada figures saw an overnight change. Suddenly 5 mm pegs were the standard again and all but the [[roleplay toy|roleplay toys]] in the Armada line have 5 mm pegs. However, carrying on from Beast Machines and Beast Wars, many Armada toys had unique or oddly moulded hands, which is madness when you have add on weapons with 5 mm pegs and lots of the toys can't hold them. 5 mm fists would not make their complete comeback until Energon.

===2003===
;MINI-CONS
The Mini-Cons are all 5 mm-compatible in the same way: All Mini-Cons can peg onto '''any''' hollow 5 mm pegs. Specific toys that can use them which aren't part of the Unicron trilogy are discussed all through this article, including RiD Optimus Prime, the Micromaster Anti-Aircraft Base, and Beast Wars K-9. Listed below are specific Mini-Cons with unique 5 mm compatibilities not covered by straightforward Powerlinking.

*[[Over-Run (Armada)|Over-Run]] and [[Run-Over (Armada)|Run-Over]] — Transform into guns with 5 mm-compatible handles.
*[[Rollout (Armada)|Rollout]] — He has a 5 mm-compatible trailer hitch that can be used as a Mini-Con port, allowing other Mini-Cons to peg onto him!
*[[Leader-1 (Armada)|Leader-1]] and [[Clench (Armada)|Clench]] — Both have 5 mm-thick arms, allowing them to become 5 mm-compatible guns.
*[[Sonar (Armada)|Sonar]] and the [[Star Saber (Armada)|Star Saber]] — The Air Defence Team merges to become the Star Saber sword. The sword can be held by any toys with 5 mm fists or pegged onto Mini-Con compatible posts. Of the three members of the team, only Sonar has an extra feature. He has a 5 mm post accessible mostly in shuttle mode, allowing him to be held in other figures' hands (as well as allowing him to be the base of the Star Saber sword).
*[[Maverick (Armada)|Maverick]] and the [[Vorpal Saber|Dark Saber]]
*[[Prowl (Armada)|Prowl]] — Prowl transforms into a 5 mm-compatible gun.
*[[Dirt Boss (Armada)|Dirt Boss]] and the [[Skyboom (Armada)|Skyboom Shield]] — The Race Mini-Con Team merge into an enormous shield designed for use with larger toys with 5 mm-compatible fists. Dirt Boss has a 5 mm-compatible head because of this. Yeah, you heard right, his head is a 5 mm post.
*[[Payload (Armada)|Payload]], [[Sky Blast (Armada)|Sky Blast]] and the [[Requiem Blaster (Armada)|Requiem Blaster]] — The Space Team merge into the Requiem Blaster, a super-gun meant for use by toys with 5 mm-compatible fists. Payload has the 5 mm peg that becomes the handle for the blaster, so he can be hand-held. Sky Blast also has a 5 mm peg, this one hollow so that you can mount other Mini-cons on top of the Requiem Blaster and power it up even MORE. Yeah. Insane, right? It also means Sky Blast can be hand-held or merge with Energon weapons, etc.
*[[Grindor (Armada)|Grindor]] — In skateboard mode, he has a Mini-Con compatible peg on top of him, allowing other Mini-cons to be plugged into him.

;AUTOBOTS
*[[Blurr (Armada)|Blurr]], [[Smokescreen (Armada)|Smokescreen]] and [[Smokescreen (Armada)|Hoist]] — None of these three moulds sport 5 mm hands. Smokescreen has a 5 mm screw hole on his arms just below his fists which can be used as a kind of 5 mm fist, but neither Blurr nor Hoist have 5 mm fists at all. Smokescreen even came in a boxset with the [[Skyboom (Armada)|Skyboom Shield]] in Japan and he can't hold it!
*[[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys|Hot Shot]], [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys|Powerlinx Hot Shot]], and [[Side Swipe (Armada)|Side Swipe]] — All feature standard 5 mm fists. Side Swipe even has a 5 mm-compatible gun. In Japan, Hot Shot was given an LED in one hand to allow him to light up 5 mm-compatible translucent weapons.
*[[Airazor (Armada)|Airazor]], [[Cheetor (Armada)|Cheetor]], and [[Rhinox (Armada)|Rhinox]] — Three redecos of Beast Wars toys, they were retooled so they would have Mini-Con hardpoints. They were not retooled to have 5 mm compatible fists, however, so neither Rhinox nor Airazor can use 5 mm-compatible weapons. Cheetor still can, though.
*[[Red Alert (Armada)|Red Alert]] and [[Red Alert (Armada)|Powerlinx Red Alert]] — Red Alert is 5 mm compatible out the wazoo. He has Mini-Con pegs all over, plus a 5 mm fist, a 5 mm port on his shoulder for shoulder cannons, a 5 mm compatible rifle... oh yeah, and interchangeable tool hands which plug in using a 5 mm peg.
*[[Scavenger (Armada)|Scavenger]] — He doesn't have 5 mm-compatible hands. But he does have big, stompy feet, so we forgive him.
*[[Overload (Armada)|Overload]], [[Jetfire (Armada)|Jetfire]] and [[Jetfire (Armada)|Powerlinx Jetfire]] — Both moulds have 5 mm fists, though Overload's are very limited due to his enormously high wrists. Overload also has a 5 mm-compatible port as his trailer hitch so he can be towed by Optimus Prime or his Mini-Con.
*[[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys|Supercon Optimus Prime]], [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys|Super Optimus Prime]] and [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys|Powerlinx Optimus Prime]] — Both the large and small Optimus Prime toys have 5 mm fists. Even in his Super Mode, Prime has 5 mm fists. The hitch used to pull Prime's trailer is a 5 mm post, shared by both the large and small versions of the toys. This means that the small Prime can pull the larger toy's trailer, or either of them can pull Armada Overload. You can also use this hitch as a mount for 5 mm compatible weapons.

;DECEPTICONS
*[[Cyclonus (Armada)|Cyclonus]], [[Cyclonus (Armada)|Powerlinx Cyclonus]], [[Demolishor (Armada)|Demolishor]], [[Demolishor (Armada)|Powerlinx Demolishor]], [[Thrust (Armada)|Thrust]] and [[Thrust (Armada)|Powerlinx Thrust]] — Do not have 5 mm compatible fists. They do have plenty of Mini-Con ports, though.
*[[Wheeljack (Armada)|Wheeljack]] — The only Supercon Decepticon with 5 mm-compatible fists. He also has missiles that he uses as clubs (well, in the fiction he uses them as guns...sorta...), and they're 5 mm compatible too.
*[[Nemesis Prime (Armada)|Nemesis Prime]] — A redeco of Supercon Optimus Prime. He has all the same compatibilities, including being able to pull the Super Prime's trailer.
*[[Terrorsaur (Armada)|Terrorsaur]] — A redeco and retool of Beast Wars Transmetal Terrorsaur. The retooling gives him Mini-Con pegs, but not 5 mm-compatible fists.
*[[Predacon (Armada)|Predacon]] — A redeco and retool of Beast Wars TM Megatron. Like the original version of the mould, he has 5 mm fists and a 5 mm tail weapon, but now he also sports four brand new Mini-Con pegs.
*[[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]], [[Skywarp (Armada)|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (Armada)|Thundercracker]] — All have 5 mm hands in addition to their Mini-Con pegs.
*[[Tidal Wave (Armada)|Tidal Wave]] — Doesn't have 5 mm fists, even if he is loaded with an unbelievable number of Mini-Con ports.
*[[Megatron (Armada)/toys|Megatron]] and [[Megatron (Armada)/toys|Galvatron]] — They traded useless knees for unreasonable numbers of Mini-Con hardpoints. Their insane number of Mini-Con pegs makes them one of the most 5 mm compatible moulds in history. The toy is perfect for overloading with weapons in either robot or tank mode, and in [[robot mode]], he even gets a 5 mm-compatible fist (only the one, because the other hand is concealing a knife).
*[[Unicron/toys|Unicron]] - In total, the planet-eater has 27 Mini-Con-compatible pegs in planet mode and 30 in robot mode — 32 if you count the two conveniently shaped pegs on the back of his right hand. Of those, 24 are situated on his wings/planet ring.

==Energon==
[[File:Energonweapon demo 001.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Now his shot's 6 times as hot!]]
With ''Transformers Energon'', the 5 mm golden age continued. Mini-Cons were dropped in favour of a return to the basic price point, but Energon figures still retained their 5 mm compatibility and their Mini-Con hardpoints. The line introduced new translucent weapons called energon weapons. The energon weapons were versatile, often multi-part weapons which frequently had both traditional 5 mm posts and ports and Mini-Con-style 5 mm posts and ports. They could be mounted on Mini-Con pegs, used to activate Mini-Con gimmicks on Armada toys, and merged to create insanely over-the-top super weapons.

There were two distinct types of energon weapons. There were the multi-part accessories packed with the Omnicons, which often had 3 or 4 distinct components. Strictly speaking these (and a few weapons of larger toys) were the weapons advertised officially as [[Energon weapon]]s. There were also the more static and traditional rifles and missile launchers packed with the larger ''Energon'' toys, even these weapons usually still had multiple posts and ports, including Mini-Con posts and ports, allowing them to be merged with other Energon weapons. As the series progressed, a third type of energon weapon was added: the multi-configuration weapons included with the Energon quintro-combiners, which were designed to be feet and hands for the large ''Energon'' combiner robots, as well as weapons for the component robots.

''Energon'' was really the first Transformers toy line to emphasise and advertise swapping and trading weapons as a pattern of play, despite the fact that Transformers toy lines had been capable of this play pattern since nearly the beginning. Over in Japan, this was emphasised even more with energon weapons from Omnibots given away, sold as separate units, or included as bonuses with redecos.

===2004===
;MINI-CONS
Not many Mini-Cons were produced during ''Energon''. There was only one entirely new team and a handful of redecos. They are all 5 mm-compatible, as is standard for Mini-Cons. Those Mini-Cons of special interest are listed below.

*[[Skyboom (Energon)|Skyboom]] and the [[Energon Saber]] — Retooled from Armada's Star Saber, they have the same basic compatibilities.
*[[Knock Out (Energon)|Knock Out]] — A redeco of Armada Rollout with all the same compatibilities.
*[[Payload (Armada)|Payload]], [[Sky Blast (Armada)|Sky Blast]] and the [[Requiem Blaster (Armada)|Requiem Blaster]] — A redeco of the Requiem Blaster from Armada, with the same basic compatibilities.

;AUTOBOTS
The listing below describes, for the most part, the individual robots. Keep in mind that each toy also came with a gun, usually a transluscent energon weapon with multiple ports and pegs, and even Mini-con compatibility. Even toys without Mini-con plugs of their own often had them on their guns.

*The Omnicons, [[Offshoot (Energon)|Offshoot]], [[Signal Flare (Energon)|Signal Flare]], [[Skyblast (Energon)|Skyblast]], [[Strongarm (Energon)|Strongarm]], and his redeco [[Strongarm (Energon)|Energon Strongarm]] — The Omnicons were Basic-sized toys, the first toys featured at this price point to have 5 mm fists. Each came with an energon weapon, as described above, made up of several components, and an energon star meant to fit over spark crystal of ''Energon'' toys.

*[[Arcee (Energon)|Arcee]] — Arcee is the only Omnicon without 5 mm fists. She has 5 mm post holes in her arms meant to stand in for 5 mm fists, but her actual hands are eenie-weenie.

*[[Sky Shadow (Energon)|Sky Shadow]], [[Treadshot (Energon)|Treadshot]], [[Terradive (Energon)|Terradive]] and [[Windrazor (Energon)|Windrazor]] — The limb components of Superion Maximus. They had standard 5 mm compatibility and unique transformable energon weapons that became "hands" and "feet" for Superion Maximus.

*[[Downshift (Energon)|Downshift]] — Downshift features a spoiler that becomes a unique platform for holding both his guns or any other energon weapons.
*[[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys|Hot Shot]], [[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys|Energon Hot Shot]] and [[Prowl (Energon)|Prowl]]
*[[Inferno (Energon)|Inferno]], [[Roadblock (Energon)|Roadblock]] and [[Rodimus (Energon)|Rodimus]] — In addition to standard ''Energon'' compatibility, these toys retain the Mini-Con ports from ''Transformers: Armada''. Rodimus has one, Inferno and Roadblock each have two.
*[[Tow-Line (Energon)|Tow-Line]] — Unlike the other Combat-Class ''Energon'' toys, Tow-Line was actually made up of two components which combine to form his vehicle mode, a robot and a battle platform. The robot is fairly standard for Energon toys, with many post holes for 5 mm weapons of all sorts, some of them in rather unusual places. The battle platform in particular, though, is basically designed as a showcase for Energon weapons, making a perfect platform for building insane or over-the-top energon weapon combinations.

*[[Beachcomber (Energon)|Beachcomber]] and [[Cliffjumper (Energon)|Cliffjumper]] — This mould has a Mini-con port on its shoulder pad. Unlike most other ''Energon'' Autobots their weapons, while 5 mm compatible, are not designed after the ''Energon'' weapon style. They don't have any extra posts or ports, and aren't made of translucent plastics. They're just simple hand-held guns.
*[[Ironhide (Energon)|Ironhide]] and [[Ironhide (Energon)|Energon Ironhide]] — One of a handful of ''Energon'' moulds without its own hand-held rifle. Has a Mini-Con port on his right forearm.
*[[Jetfire (Armada)|Jetfire]] and [[Overcast (Energon)|Overcast]] — The Mini-Con ports on their shuttle mode become their toes in robot mode so... uhhh... good luck with that. The rifle that comes with this mould, despite being translucent, is not effective as an Energon weapon. It has two gun posts, but no other compatibility. It may have been intended to, though. On top of the rifle is a piece of moulding that looks exactly like a Mini-Con post, including their unique base... but it's teeny tiny and undersized.

*[[Treadbolt]] — A redeco of ''Armada'' Scavenger with all his compatibilities.
*[[Wing Saber (Energon)|Wing Saber]] — He has no hand-held rifle, but he does have a Mini-Con port on his left forearm.

*[[Bulkhead (Energon)|Bulkhead]] and [[Quickstrike (Energon)|Quickstrike]], [[Landmine (Energon)|Landmine]] and [[Landquake (Energon)|Landquake]] — Both these moulds are littered with 5 mm ports and pegs. The Bulkhead mould also has a Mini-Con peg on his helicopter tail, while the Landmine mould has two Mini-Con ports on his large cannon for his Brute mode.

*[[Ultra Magnus (Energon)|Ultra Magnus]] — A redeco of ''Armada'' Overload.

*[[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys|Optimus Prime]] — Prime has 4 Mini-Con pegs in vehicle mode: 2 on his trailer, and 2 on his cab. In robot mode his trailer becomes a base and is still Mini-Con compatible, but the Mini-Con ports are hidden in Prime's robot mode, sadly. Prime's gun is just a standard rifle, not an energon weapon.
*[[Omega Sentinel (Energon)|Omega Sentinel]] and [[Omega Supreme (Energon)|Omega Supreme]] — This mould has 4 Mini-Con ports on his shoulders, front and back, and a handful of 5 mm posts. Still, considering its size it's not enormously versatile at using 5 mm compatible weapons.

;DECEPTICONS
*[[Battle Ravage]], [[Command Ravage]], [[Cruellock]], [[Doom-Lock (Energon)|Doom-Lock]] and [[Insecticon (Energon)|Insecticon]] — All the Energon Terrorcons have 5 mm fists as standard. In addition to his Energon weapon Ravage also has a tail mace.
*[[Divebomb (Energon)|Divebomb]] — Divebomb's wing-mounted weapons come in two variants. The first variant has only one 5 mm post on the base of the two-part weapon. The second variant was retooled to have two posts, one at either end of his weapon.
*[[Bonecrusher (Energon)|Bonecrusher]], [[Duststorm (Energon)|Duststorm]], [[Sledge (Energon)|Sledge]], and [[Wideload (Energon)|Wideload]] — The limbs of Constructicon Maximus. Each of them has 5 mm fists as standard. The Duststorm/Wideload mould also has a Mini-Con peg on its crane arm.
*[[Steamhammer (Energon)|Steamhammer]] — Steamhammer loves Mini-Cons. In both robot and vehicle modes he has 5 Mini-Con posts. That's a lot, even for an Energon toy, allowing him to hold a partner Mini-Con, an entire Mini-Con team and have one left over for an Energon weapon. Too bad he doesn't have a Mini-Con partner. (Oh yeah, he's got a bunch of 5 mm post holes too.)
*[[Constructicon Maximus]] — He retains six Mini-Con pegs, four from Steamhammer and two from Dust Storm and Wideload, though Steamhammer's aren't particularly accessible. He doesn't have 5 mm peg hole hands.
*[[Blackout (combiner)|Blackout]], [[Stormcloud (Energon)|Stormcloud]] — This mould has two 5 mm posts on each arm in robot mode.
*[[Blight (Energon)|Blight]], [[Kickback (Energon)|Kickback]] — The tank mould technically has three Mini-con ports on his weapon, though only one is accessible in vehicle mode, and in robot mode one of them has to form the handle for the gun. In practical terms you're probably only going to get one Mini-con on there.
*[[Barricade (Energon)|Barricade]] — Barricade likes Mini-cons too, but not as much as Steamhammer. He's got three Mini-con posts in robot mode and two in vehicle mode.
*[[Bruticus Maximus (Energon)|Bruticus Maximus]] — Thanks to Barricade he has two Mini-con ports on his thighs. He doesn't have 5 mm post holes for hands, but he does have Mini-con ports on his thumbs when using the tank as an arm, or on his heels if using the tank as a leg.
*[[Demolishor (Armada)|Demolishor]] — In addition to his 5 mm fists he has four Mini-con posts, though generally speaking only two are accessible in either mode. Because the posts are on a hinged piece it is possible to expose and use all four at once. His missiles can also fit into his hands, but aren't particularly effective because he holds them at about the midpoint on the missile.
*[[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]] and [[Starscream (Armada)|Energon Starscream]] — Based conceptually on the G2 Smokescreen mould, unlike that mould Starscream is highly 5 mm compatible. He has a crazy Energon weapon, with multiple configurations and mini-con ports, so the gun section of the weapon can be used a Mini-con. He has Mini-con pegs on his wings that are accessible in both modes. Oh yeah, and the heads of his missiles are 5 mm, so he can use them as swords if he gets tired of his giant Energon sword.
*[[Rapid Run (Energon)|Rapid Run]] — A redeco of Armada Sideways.
*[[Sharkticon (Energon)|Sharkticon]], [[Slugslinger (Energon)|Slugslinger]], [[Cyclonus (Armada)|Snow Cat]] — In addition to 5 mm fists, they all have Mini-con ports on the kibble on their forearms. Snow Cat only has a port on his left arm.
*[[Dreadwing (Energon)|Dreadwing]] and [[Tidal Wave (Armada)|Mirage]] — This mould loves 5 mm pegs. Including fists each arm has three 5 mm peg holes, as well as a Mini-con port. The toy's missiles are also 5 mm wide, letting him hold them as swords. Oh yeah, and he has 5 mm posts on the insides of his knees.
*[[Shockblast]] and [[Six Shot (Energon)|Six Shot]] — Doesn't have traditional hands, but has plenty of 5 mm post holes.
*[[Scorponok (Energon)|Scorponok]] — Doesn't have traditional hands, but has plenty of 5 mm post holes. Has some very inaccessible Mini-con pegs on the missile launchers on his claws.
*[[Tidal Wave (Armada)|Tidal Wave]] — An awesome redeco of Armada Tidal Wave.
*[[Megatron (Armada)/toys|Galvatron]] and [[Megatron (Armada)/toys|Megatron]] — This same basic design was released twice at two different size scales. They're all 5 mm compatible. The larger version has 6 Mini-con ports in jet mode, and two in robot mode. The tank accessory also features a Mini-con port on the turret's hatch, exactly where such a post was located on the ''Armada'' Megatron figure it was based on. The tank also has four 5 mm post holes on its underside, which are used to dock the tank to the jet.
*[[Alpha Quintesson]] — While he doesn't transform, Alpha Quintesson is positively brimming with 5 mm posts. He has a 5 mm post missile launcher too.

==Cybertron==
While ''Transformers Cybertron'' continued the widespread 5 mm compatibility seen in ''Armada'' and ''Energon'', it was in a more low-key form, as the central gimmick of [[Cyber Key]]s had nothing to do with 5 mm posts whatsoever. Mini-Con ports became rare again, though not unheard of — the focus was now almost entirely on weapons.

===2005===
;MINI-CONS
[[File:Ichibi-peg.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Ichibi's added post actually removes the original Powerlinx function. Whoops.]]
Mini-Cons were rare at the beginning of Cybertron, consisting of [[Safeguard (Cybertron)|Safeguard]] and the [[Recon Mini-Con Team]]. As time went on, however, the line introduced a few more teams, a series of Mini-Con two-packs redecoed from ''Armada'' and ''Energon'' molds, and an assortment of Mini-Cons both old and new as pack-in bonuses. Naturally, these all retained standard Powerlinking capability; listed below are Mini-Cons with additional abilities beyond that.

*[[Checkpoint (Cybertron)|Checkpoint]], [[Stripmine]], and [[Deepdive (Cybertron)|Deepdive]] — Each of these Mini-Cons sports a 5 mm post. Stripmine and Deepdive's posts are hollow.
*[[Scrap Iron (Cybertron)|Scrap Iron]], [[Backblast]], and [[Blastcharge (Cybertron)|Blastcharge]] — Another redeco of the Requiem Blaster, with everything that implies.
*[[Downshift (Armada)|Downshift]], [[Dirt Boss (Armada)|Dirt Boss]], and [[Mirage (Armada)|Mirage]] — Redecoes of the Race Team, with all the same compatibility.
*[[Bulge (Cybertron)|Bulge]], [[Graviton (Cybertron)|Graviton]], and [[Quasar]] — Redecoes of the [[Emergency Mini-Con Team]]. Bulge (copter) was [[retool]]ed to add a 5 mm post to his tail section, and Graviton (crash truck) had a 5 mm peg glued into one of his Powerlinx sockets. Both of these additions were to make their weapon modes hand-held.
*[[Hyakurai]], [[Ichibi]], and [[Mugen]] — Retools of the [[Air Military Mini-Con Team]]. Each one was given 5 mm pegs to make their weapon modes hand-held (even though their main partner, [[Wing Saber (Energon)#Cybertron|Wing Saber]], didn't have 5 mm-compatible hands).
{{-}}
;AUTOBOTS
*[[Vector Prime]] — He is from an earlier, apparently ''Armada''-esque age and his form reflects that. He is here to sport multiple Mini-Con posts, 5 mm fistholes, and a 5 mm-compatible sword. He is not here to blend.
*[[Longrack (Cybertron)|Longrack]] — A retooled ''Armada'' [[Smokescreen (Armada)|Hoist]], Longrack still sports a 5 mm post. ([[Blurr (Cybertron)|Blurr]] does not.)
*[[Red Alert (Armada)|Red Alert]] — Has one 5 mm hand, and one gun-hand which is a 5 mm post, with "hammer" and "claw" attachments that fit on the end.
*[[Clocker (Cybertron)|Clocker]], [[Swerve (Cybertron)|Swerve]] — Clocker has a 5 mm gun (with two pegs, side by side) and fists to hold it... and also has dual ''exhaust pipe'' accessories that attach (to the undersides of his fists, actually) using hollow 5 mm posts.
*[[Hot Shot (Armada)/toys|Hot Shot]], [[Excellion (Cybertron)|Excellion]], [[Landmine (Energon)|Landmine]], [[Scattorshot (Cybertron)|Scattorshot]], [[Jetfire (Armada)|Jetfire]], [[Override (Cybertron)|Override]], Override GTS, [[Armorhide (Cybertron)|Armorhide]], [[Brakedown (Cybertron)|Brakedown]], Brakedown GTS, [[Crosswise (Cybertron)|Crosswise]], [[Smokescreen (Cybertron)|Smokescreen]], [[Downshift (Energon)|Downshift]] — All feature 5 mm weapons, fists, and vehicle mode mounting points.
*[[Hightail (Cybertron)|Hightail]] — His <s>trombone</s> gun has a 5 mm post, and he has the fists to hold it.
*[[Overhaul (Cybertron)|Overhaul]], [[Evac (Cybertron)|Evac]] — Though they lack any handheld weapons of their own, these toys have 5 mm fists.
*[[Quickmix (Cybertron)|Quickmix]], [[Cybertron Defense Team (Cybertron)|Cybertron Defense]] Hot Shot, Cybertron Defense Red Alert, and Cybertron Defense Scattorshot — Quickmix and all three members of the Cybertron Defense Team have 5 mm-compatible fists and accessories, and bear hollow 5 mm posts for mounting Mini-Cons.
*[[Metroplex (Cybertron)|Metroplex]] — Metroplex is ''covered'' in hollow 5 mm posts, with a total of 14.
*[[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys|Optimus Prime]] (Deluxe [[Trukk not munky|trukk]]) — A redeco of the ''Armada'' Super-Con Optimus Prime mold with the same functionality. Instead of Over-Run, he includes a special Cyber Key that has the same hole-with-a-post as a Mini-Con, making it capable of attaching to any hollow 5 mm post.
*Optimus Prime and [[Ultra Magnus (Energon)|Ultra Magnus]] — Redecoes of the ''Robots in Disguise'' versions, with all that that implies.

;DECEPTICONS
*[[Buzzsaw (Cybertron)|Buzzsaw]] and [[Runamuck (Cybertron)|Runamuck]] — Retooled versions of ''Armada'' Cyclonus and Side Swipe. Buzzsaw retains most of Cyclonus's compatibility, but has lost the posts on his missile launchers. Runamuck, meanwhile, has lost Sideswipe's accessories in favor of a new 5 mm gun.
*[[Megatron (Armada)/toys|Megatron]], Galvatron, [[Ransack (Cybertron)|Ransack]], Ransack GTS, [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]], [[Hardtop (Cybertron)|Hardtop]], [[Swindle (Cybertron)|Swindle]], [[Lugnutz]], and [[Soundwave (Cybertron)|Soundwave]] — All these figures have 5 mm hands and weapons.
*[[Crumplezone (Cybertron)|Crumplezone]], Dark Crumplezone, [[Thundercracker (Armada)|Thundercracker]], [[Skywarp (Armada)|Skywarp]], [[Dirt Boss (Cybertron)|Dirt Boss]], [[Mudflap (Cybertron)|Mudflap]], and [[Brushguard]] — These figures have 5 mm hands, though they include no compatible accessories.
*[[Scorponok (Energon)|Dark Scorponok]] — A retooled Scorponok that retains the ''Energon'' toy's features and adds Cyber Key compatibility.
*[[Thunderblast (Decepticon)|Thunderblast]] — Like Arcee before her, Thunderblast's hands are too small and girly for 5 mm holes, so she has them further up on her forearms instead. Her weapon is 5 mm-compatible.
*[[Menasor (Cybertron)|Menasor]] — Like Metroplex, Menasor likes Mini-Cons.
*[[Cannonball (Cybertron)|Cannonball]] — A redeco of Red Alert with the same compatibility.
*[[Scrapmetal (Cybertron individual)|Scrap]][[Scrapmetal (race)|metal]] — All Scrapmetals have 5 mm fists, and in an undocumented feature, their flip-out blades can be hand-held.
*[[Demolishor (Armada)|Demolishor]] — A redeco of ''Armada'' Demolishor with the same features. Instead of Blackout, he includes a Cyber Key with a Mini-Con-style 5 mm hole on the back, similar to the deluxe Optimus Prime's.

;OTHER
*[[Primus]] — Like Unicron before him, Primus sports an assortment of hollow 5 mm posts. His total is far lower (nine), but in Primus's defense, most of Unicron's are on his ring.
*[[Sideways (Armada)|Sideways]] and [[Unicron/toys|Unicron]] — Both feature 5 mm fists and accessories.

==Classics==
''Classics'' brought back many old ''Transformers'' characters with new toys, and most of those toys were 5 mm compatible. It also introduced yet more Mini-Cons, though hollow 5 mm posts are few and far between in ''Classics.''

==''Transformers'' (2007)==
The live-action movie toyline mostly eschewed the use of the 5 mm system, in part because the integrated nature of the characters' weapons meant a low number of handheld accessories overall. Nevertheless, the reuse of various molds from the previous few years ensured that 5 mm posts continued to appear.

==Animated==
''Transformers Animated'' had few 5 mm-compatible toys, but they existed.

===2008===
;AUTOBOTS
*[[Optimus Prime (Animated)/toys|Cybertron Mode Optimus Prime]] - His axe and shield have 5 mm posts, and therefore his hands are also compatible with them.
*Voyager Class Optimus Prime - Both his axe and his water gun use the standard 5 mm posts, and therefore his hands are also compatible.
*The Battle Begins Optimus Prime - His axe uses the 5 mm post for its handle, and his hands are compatible with them... as is the hole in his buttocks.
*[[Jazz (Animated)|Jazz]] - His hands are open with a 5 mm groove in them to hold such accessories.
*[[Sentinel Prime (Animated)|Sentinel Prime]] - Both his shield and [[lance]] sport 5 mm posts, and his hands are compatible. However, the fingers are sculpted with a gap over the 5 mm holes, so accessories with smaller posts can only be held from the bottom of his hands.
;DECEPTICONS
*[[Lugnut (Animated)|Lugnut]] - The inside of his robot mode hands sport 5 mm posts, which can also double as a Mini-Con port. His mace also has a 5 mm hole in it.
*[[Swindle (Animated)|Swindle]] — Appropriately enough, Swindle is equipped with a large cannon on a 5 mm post, and has two 5 mm holes with which to use it.
*[[Megatron (Animated)|Leader Class Megatron]] - His swords are mounted on 5 mm handles, and his hands therefore sport 5 mm holes.
*Shadow Blade Megatron - Being a redeco of Leader Class Megatron, he carries over the same 5 mm compatibility.
*[[Shockwave (Animated)|Shockwave]] - His gun/crane uses a 5 mm post, so the holes in his forearms and back are compatible with other weapons.

===2009===
;AUTOBOTS
*Freeway Jazz - Being a redeco of Jazz, he shares the same 5 mm-holed hands.
;DECEPTICONS
*Atomic Lugnut - Being a redeco of Lugnut, Atomic Lugnut sports the same posts in his hands, and the same hole on his mace.
*Shockwave Vs. Bumblebee - The Shockwave in this pack, being a redeco of the previous Shockwave, has the same post/ports.

===2010===
;AUTOBOTS
*[[Arcee (Animated)|Arcee]] - Arcee's hands can hold 5 mm post weapons. However, her weapons are slightly thicker. This resulted in many a broken thumb.
*[[Rodimus Prime (Animated)|Rodimus Minor]] - The tabs on his bow are 5 mm wide.

===2011===
;AUTOBOTS
*[[Minerva (Animated)|Minerva]] - Being a redeco of Arcee, she shares the same 5 mm-holed hands. But continue to be careful with her slaggin' thumbs!
*[[Sideswipe (Animated)|Sideswipe]] - Being a redeco of Breakdown, Sideswipe shares the 5 mm bow tabs.
;DECEPTICONS
*[[Dead End (Animated)|Dead End]] - Being a redeco of Jazz, he shares the same 5 mm-holed hands.
*[[Drag Strip (Animated)|Drag Strip]] - Being a redeco of Arcee, she shares the same 5 mm-holed hands. But continue to be careful with the swords!
*[[The Motor Master|Motormaster]] - Being a retool of Voyager Class Optimus Prime, his axe and cannon use the same 5 mm posts, and the hands use the same 5 mm holes.
*[[Toxitron (Animated)|Toxitron]] - Being a redeco of Voyager Class Optimus Prime, his axe and cannon use the same 5 mm posts, and the hands use the same 5 mm holes.
*[[Breakdown (Animated)|Breakdown]] - Being a retool of Rodimus Minor, Breakdown shares the same 5 mm tabs on his bow.

==Universe (2008)==
Following in the footsteps of ''Classics'', ''Universe'' toys nearly always featured 5 mm fists and accessories.

==Revenge of the Fallen==
The toys for the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' movie initially returned to the design principles of the previous live-action movie, but in time, 5 mm accessories began to creep back in. This line also introduced an alternate system of interchangeable accessories, the [[C joint]].

==Generations==
Once again, ''Generations'' typically followed the example of ''Classics'' and ''Universe,'' featuring widespread 5 mm compatibility.

==Power Core Combiners==
Much like ''Armada'' and ''Energon'', ''Power Core Combiners'' heavily emphasized compatibility between different toys. The main focus of the line, the "combination" suggested by the title, was a series of "Commander" figures who could combine with interchangeable drone vehicles in a fashion similar to the [[Special Teams]]. Commanders were sold either with sets of drones or in smaller packs with Mini-Cons. These Mini-Cons were also designed to have weapon modes, using 5 mm posts, and as such 5 mm fists proliferated. The Commander figures also featured hollow 5 mm posts for mounting the Mini-Cons, and the drones all featured hollow 5 mm posts as well, leading to [[tvtropes:Main/CombinatorialExplosion|insanity]].

===2010===
[[File:PCC-toy Backwind.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]
;MINI-CONS

In additional to the usual capabilities of Mini-Cons, every ''PCC'' Mini-Con has at least one 5 mm post, usually hollow, which enables it to be handheld. Special cases are listed below.

*[[Chopster]], [[Razorbeam]] — The axe Mini-Cons unfortunately have a narrower segment below the 5 mm grip, similar to double-posted weapons, and as such they cannot be held by toys with shallower fist holes (ironically including [[Darkstream]]). The post is also solid, so it can only connect to empty 5 mm holes.
*[[Backwind]], [[Beacon (PCC)|Beacon]], and [[Pinpoint]] — These three have empty 5 mm holes rather than the usual Mini-Con ports. This prevents them from activating Powerlinx gimmicks, but allows them to attach to ordinary 5 mm posts, not just hollow ones.
{{-}}
;AUTOBOTS
[[File:PCC-toy Rallybots.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|The Rallybots feature "hidden" 5 mm Powerlinx plugs. Neat! Pity about everything else about them.]]
*[[Skyburst (PCC)|Skyburst]] — One hollow post on his back, and shallow 5 mm fists.
**[[Aerialbot (PCC)|Aerialbots]] — All four drones have hollow 5 mm posts on the top, though the Fighter Jet's is not really useful in combined mode. The helicopters' posts are on top of their rotors, and as such any Mini-Cons or weapons attached there will spin freely.
*[[Huffer (PCC)|Huffer]] — For unknown reasons, Huffer has fist holes, but they are far too small to hold 5 mm posts. He has a hollow 5 mm post on his right forearm to make up for this, and another flip-out post on his chest.
*[[Searchlight (PCC)|Searchlight]] — Searchlight is absurdly 5 mm-compatible for a toy of his size. In addition to the usual 5 mm fists, he has 5 mm holes in the sides of his forearms, meant for attaching his vehicle mode rotors. He also has the flip-out hollow chest post typical of ''PCC'' Commander molds originating in two-packs, and a second hollow post on what becomes the underside of his cockpit in vehicle mode. As implied by the forearm holes, his rotors are separate accessories that can connect to any 5 mm peghole (including the one on Backwind's chest).
*[[Double Clutch (PCC)|Double Clutch]] — He has a single hollow post on a hinged panel, which is normally concealed in most modes but can be folded out. For holding weapons he has sideways holes on the inside of his forearms, which are awkward in robot mode but can be used more effectively as shoulder weapon mounts in his torso mode. They're shallow, but with their positioning you probably wouldn't want to give him Chopster anyway.
**[[Rallybot]]s — Each Rallybot has a hollow post that can fold away, located on the rear bumper of the Race Car and on top of the others. Interestingly, the Street Racer reveals a ''second'' post in leg mode, which is necessary since the vehicle mode post ends up on the bottom of the foot.
*[[Leadfoot (PCC)|Leadfoot]] — Like Double Clutch, Leadfoot has sideways forearm holes instead of fists. Unlike Double Clutch and basically everyone else ever, both of his hollow posts are flip-out posts for chest armor, one (normally concealed under his windshield) for his robot chest and one for his combined chest. Both can be used in vehicle mode as well.
*[[Stakeout (PCC)|Stakeout]] — A redeco of Smolder with the same features.
**[[Protectobot (PCC)|Protectobots]] — Redecos of two Aerialbots (Chopper and Fighter Jet) and two Combaticons (APC and Tank).
*[[Steelshot]] — A redeco of Bombshock with the same features.
*[[Grimstone (PCC)|Grimstone]] — Grimstone has shallow fists and a single 5 mm post on his ''tail'' (in robot mode, his back).
**[[Dinobot (PCC)|Dinobots]] — The ''Parasaurolophus'' drone has two side-mounted Mini-Con posts. The others are more or less standard.
*[[Heavytread (PCC)|Heavytread]] — In addition to the usual flip-out chest post and 5 mm hands (irregularly-shaped but usable), Heavytread has a 5 mm peghole on top of his vehicle mode near the forward right corner. This hole is usable in all three modes, ending up approximately on his wrist in robot mode.
*[[Salvage (Movie)|Salvage]] — A redeco of Mudslinger with the same compatibility. Since he has 5 mm fists, [[Bomb-Burst (PCC)|Bomb-Burst]] gets the official weapon mode that's technically a fanmode on Chainclaw.

;DECEPTICONS
[[File:PCC-toy Sledge.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Sledge and his weird chest-peg assembly.]]
*[[Bombshock (PCC)|Bombshock]] — Bombshock has two hollow posts quite close to each other: one is on top of his turret (ending up on the back of his torso mode head), while the other is between his cannons. Both end up on his back in robot mode, in varying configurations depending on how his kibble is arranged. Like his wavemate Skyburst, he has shallow 5 mm fists, so no axes for him.
**[[Combaticon (PCC)|Combaticons]] — All four drones have top-mounted posts which are accessible in both modes, though because of the APC's transformation, Mini-Cons attached to it in combined mode will appear to extend from the robot's knee.
*[[Smolder (PCC)|Smolder]] - Smolder has 5 mm fists, and a flip-out hollow 5 mm post on his chest. He has a second hollow post on the roof of his vehicle mode, which in his other modes ends up in an awkward but usable position on the back (robot mode) or front (torso mode) of his right shoulder.
*[[Mudslinger (PCC)|Mudslinger]] - Mudslinger has a 5 mm post near the back of his vehicle mode, accessible in all three modes... which ends up on the front of his left knee in robot mode, and the ''inside'' of his right knee in torso mode. Good luck making use of that. At least he has 5 mm fists.
**[[Destructicon (PCC)|Destructicons]] — All four Destructicons have top-mounted posts that remain accessible in limb mode. The Heavy Hauler's post can fold away like those of the Rallybots.
*[[Icepick (PCC)|Icepick]] — Oddly enough for the ''PCC'' line, Icepick has no 5 mm pegholes at all, with the effect that [[Chainclaw (PCC)|Chainclaw's]] 5 mm weapon mode was omitted from the instructions. His compatibility consists of a hollow 5 mm post on his right shoulder and a fold-out one on his chest, both usable in all three modes.
*[[Sledge (PCC)|Sledge]] — Like his wavemates, Sledge is odd: he has shallow wrist holes (this time located ''under'' his forearms) instead of fists, and unlike his fellow two-pack-originated Commanders, he has no flip-out posts at all (maybe Leadfoot stole his?). Instead he has a single hollow post on his chest that serves all three modes, and another on his shovel.
*[[Crankcase (Movie)|Crankcase]] — A redeco of Huffer with the same abilities.
**[[Destron (PCC)|Destrons]] — Redecos of two Aerialbots (Recon Plane and Combat Helicopter) and two Combaticons (Missile Carrier and Armored Car).
*[[Darkstream]] — A redeco of Skyburst, incapable of any interaction with Razorbeam other than wearing him on his back.
*[[Windburn]] — A redeco of Searchlight, retaining his capabilities.
*[[Steamhammer (PCC)|Steamhammer]] — Steamhammer is unusual among five-pack-originated Commanders: his torso mode has a hollow 5 mm post on his chest! This post is basically inaccessible in his other modes, so he has a second one on his roof, which in robot mode is on a block hanging awkwardly from his elbow.
**[[Constructicon (PCC)|Constructicons]] — The Constructicons' posts are all well-placed, with no particular unusual qualities.
*[[Skyhammer (PCC)|Skyhammer]] —
*[[Over-Run (PCC)|Over-Run]] — A redeco of Leadfoot with the same abilities.
**[[Stunticon (PCC)|Stunticons]] — Redecos of two Rallybots (Race Car and Tuner) and two Destructicons (Armored Truck and Armored Junker).
*[[Undertow (PCC)|Undertow]] — Similar to Sledge, Undertow has one fixed hollow 5 mm post, accessible in all modes.

==Transformers (2010)==
The [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010 ''Transformers'' toyline]] continued to make widespread use of 5 mm posts and holes (though perhaps not as widespread as some previous lines). [[C joint]]s proliferated as well, leading to a veritable golden age of interchangeable weapons.

==Dark of the Moon==
[[File:Ironhide-MechTechWeaponsCombo-5mmPost.JPG|upright=1.66|thumb|Ya feelin' lucky, pardner?]]
When it came to ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'', the smaller and larger [[size class]]es were respectively split between the [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] and [[MechTech]] brandings. While C joint compatibility was further established between the two, the 5 mm post absolutely ''flourished''.

Nearly all of the MechTech toys use 5 mm posts for their MechTech weapons, with the line also emulating the [[Stealth Force]] [[attack mode]]s that were featured in the [[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|film]]. As a result, the toys come with a ''very'' large number of ports, hidden or otherwise, for the weapons to peg into for each figure. The larger figures even have MechTech ports on the ''weapons themselves'', and the [[packaging]] blurb encourages the user to create "new weapons" by combining then.

This line also introduced a minor innovation: self-covering pegholes. Many MechTech toys have 5 mm holes that contain circular plugs on springs. Inserting a weapon handle depresses the plug; when the weapon is removed, the spring pushes it back up to sit flush with surrounding panels.

Each of the Cyberverse "Action Sets" also contains at least a single, large, removable, spring-loaded (but not always [[missile]]-firing) weapon integrated into the set itself, allowing interchangeability between the weapons of both Cyberverse Action Sets and MechTech figures. The Cyberverse [[Ark (DOTM)|Ark]], in particular, features ''six'' weapons (one functional) that are mounted via 5 mm posts and holes.

==Prime==
[[File:ArmsMicronPackin-TakTomSite.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Arms Microns can be combined into some truly ridiculous weapons.]]

The [[Transformers: Prime (toyline)|''Prime'' toyline]] use 5 mm pegs and ports for most of its weapons. [[Soundwave (WFC)|Soundwave]]'s [[Deployer (WFC)|deployers]] also use 5 mm pegs and ports to attach to him.

The Japanese version of the line takes this to a higher level though, with the "[[Arms Micron]]" play-pattern. All non-[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] toys in the line have been [[retool]]ed to include several extra 5 mm sockets, and include a snap-together Mini-Con partner that transforms into some form of weapon. There are also numerous Arms Microns sold as individuals. The Microns have multiple 5 mm posts and sockets, and can be combined to form "Combo Weapons" like the [[Nebula Scythe]], and "Super Combo Weapons" like the [[Star Saber (Arms Micron)|Star Saber]] and the [[Galaxy Launcher]]. While they will occasionally highlight these specific named combinations, the marketing for ''Prime'' in Japan ''heavily'' plays up the idea of just going nuts with your own custom Micron combinations.
{{-}}

==Construct-Bots==
The ''[[Construct-Bots]]'' toyline is primarily based on 5 mm pegs for interchangeability of armor and weapons. Even the faction symbols are on 5 mm pegs!

==''Robots in Disguise'' (2015)==
Similarly to ''Prime'', its successor series also uses 5 mm post near-universally. And much like the Arms Micron series for the Japanese release of ''Prime'', this series includes Weaponizer Mini-Cons which include at least one post to allow them to be held or mounted on other figures in the line. Many of them have multiple posts, and one mold in particular ([[Lancelon]]) has one of those posts as a double post, with a 3mm post extending from the one on his back. However, they do not appear to be meant to combine the same way that Arms Microns are.

==War for Cybertron trilogy==
[[File:WFC-Siege-C.O.M.B.A.T.-System-examples.jpg|upright=1.3|thumb]]
:The [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] consists of a standardized set of 5 mm ports across most figures. The Weaponizers introduced in the trilogy's ''Siege'' portion, and their successors the Modulators from ''Earthrise'', and Fossilizers from ''Kingdom'' are all Deluxe-sized figures that can form armor and weaponry for C.O.M.B.A.T.-equipped toys. Micromasters, making a return from G1, can combine to form Mini-Con-esque "weapon" modes, along with some of them having 5mm holes that allow them to act as Mini-Cons. [[Battle Master]]s, much like the Targetmasters of old, can also transform into dedicated weapons usable for larger Transformers.
==Legacy==
:The 5mm port play pattern continued into the War For Cybertron trilogy's successor ''Legacy'' and its subline imprints of ''Evolution'' and ''United''. ''Evolution'' featured Weaponizer styled Junkions who can be disassembled into armor and weapons with the added benefit of not needing to be transformed via partsforming, as well as the first [[Trashmaster#Legacy|Voyager to use the format]], while ''United'' featured the [[Armorizer]] subgroup: the result of combining the weaponizer format with [[Daira]] rock monsters and [[Rock Lord]]s.
: All the while, figs retain some degree of 5mm posts to use this feature.
{{-}}
==Age of the Primes==
:[[Micronus Prime#Age of the Primes|Micronus Prime]] is an odd case, as the figure himself does not utilize the Weaponizer format; rather, the large unicycle vehicle he comes with does, in the same "doesn't need to be dismantled to transform" fashion as the Legacy Junkions and Armorizers. The line's 2026 offerings also include two ''Legacy'' Junkion redecoes, [[Jalopy]] and [[Wreck-Gar (Animated)#Age of the Primes|''Animated'' Wreck-Gar]]. All figures in the line still use 5mm posts and are thus compatible with them.

==Notes==
[[File:Warpath Lego2780.jpg|thumb|200px]]
*Due to [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s ''[[Brave (franchise)|Brave]]'' series toys sharing many of the same designers from the latter days of G1, a great many of the figures utilize 5 mm weaponry pegs. This, of course, can give even the smallest 5 mm compatible Transformer the ability to carry 5" chrome swords and gigantic guns.
*Other Takara lines have also used the 5 mm pegs, including Battle Beasts transforming playsets and the Robolinks toy line.
*The 5 mm post/hole system is also used extensively by companies such as Bandai and Tomy. The Machine Robo Rescue (not to be confused with the trademark-interfering Machine Robot Rescue from ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Ratchet (Universe)|Ratchet]] and [[Inferno (BW)|Inferno]]'s packages) and Zoid Blox lines all utilize it.
*While [[LEGO]] toys do not make use of 5 mm posts in and of themselves, they frequently use a style of hollow connector pin that coincidentally fits snugly into 5 mm holes. [http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/2780 One particularly common part] consists entirely of two such pins back-to-back, making it a workable add-on handle if you want your Mini-Cons to be hand-held. However, there can be danger of the piece ''snapping'' when trying to get it into a Powerlinx post, due to the differing widths of LEGO elements.

:*''Accessories'': Left & right fists, 2 missile launchers, 2 "null-rays", 2 "cluster bombs", left & right wings, left & right tail fins, left & right tail wings, landing gear
{{toydesigner|[[Kōjin Ōno]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Released in the first year of the [[The Transformers (toyline)|original ''Transformers'' toyline]], Starscream began life as "Jet Robo" from the Japanese ''[[Diaclone]]'' line, transforming into a grey, red and blue F-15 Eagle fighter jet. To transform Starscream, one must essentially take most of his plane parts off and transform his body, then reattach most of plane parts on again, along with the addition of two blue fists. Owing to the modular nature of his design and the fact that it is impossible to store all the parts in either mode, it can be quite difficult to find an intact original set of this toy.

: Starscream is armed with a pair of missile launchers that mount on his arms in robot mode, and under his wings in jet mode, with a pair of specialized projectiles for each. In jet mode, two short "[[cluster bomb]]" projectiles are fitted into the launchers to make them resemble the drop tanks a real F-15 carries, while in robot mode, they are replaced with the long barrels of Starscream's [[null-ray]]s. The original ''Diaclone'' version of the mold featured spring-loaded firing mechanisms in these launchers; while this feature was removed for the [[Hasbro]] release of the toy, it was left intact for the [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] version, and all subsequent reissues.

: The ''Diaclone'' version of the Starscream mold featured tailfins with solid tips and solid fists, and both these features carried over to the earliest ''Transformers'' releases. Soon, however, the ''Transformers'' mold was modified to add hollow tips to the fins, and tabs to the insides of the fists to allow them to hold onto his arms tighter, resulting in a visible slit on either side of each one. These altered versions became the standard for all subsequent reissues of the mold. Like all his 1984 brethren, a [[rubsign]] was added to Starscream in 1985.

: Presumably by mistake, the stats on Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker's [[Tech Spec]]s were switched around. Starscream's box was given Thundercracker's numbers, notably giving him a lower rank and speed that stood in contrast to the bio printed next to them.

: The Italian release of Starscream (as "Astrum") by [[GiG]] put him in a generic "Distructor Planes" box, featuring names and tech specs for all three planes in the assortment.

: Starscream's mold was [[redeco]]ed into the concurrently-available [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Thundercracker]] and [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Skywarp]]. It would later be redecoed again to make [[Sunstorm (G1)#Toys|Sunstorm]], and [[retool]]ed into [[Dirge (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Dirge]], [[Ramjet (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Ramjet]], and [[Thrust (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Thrust]].

: Given his role as a major and popular character, Starscream himself would be reissued many times down the years, the first being [[Classics (Europe)#Australian exclusives|still in his original packaging in Australia]] in 1990. Subsequent reissues had more distinctive presentation, and this article strives to list each one under its own header. He was available throughout the first three years of the original US line, up through 1986 despite the departure of nearly every other 1984 toy from store shelves that year.

{{toydesigner|[[Masakatsu Saito]] (concept artist)}}

: The first new Starscream toy since the original brought the treacherous Air Commander back as a [[Classic Pretender]]. He still transforms into a grey, red and blue F-15 fighter jet, though his vehicle mode now borders on the [[super deformed]]. He is armed with a pair of blue lasers, which become his tail fins in jet mode.

: Starscream's two-piece [[Pretender]] shell resembles a human in a teal, grey and brown space armored suit with a removable helmet. The shell is armed with a large blue rifle. When Starscream is inside the shell, his removable grey wings store in holes on the shell's back, while the blue lasers get plugged into the sides of the large rifle.

This version of Starscream featured a silver face, as opposed to the Hasbro version's black.

: In Italy, [[GiG]] also forewent releasing the individual Classic Pretenders, and instead released their own version of the Hero Set named "Set Commandos". Starscream was given the name "Tornado", which was originally the Italian name of [[Air Raid (G1)|Air Raid]]. The "Set Commandos" toys were identical to the Japanese "Hero Set" versions.

{{toydesigner|[[Masakatsu Saito]] (concept artist)}}

: Released in the seventh and final year of the original ''Transformers'' line (well, final in the US, anyway), [[Action Master]] Starscream is a non-transforming 3¾-inch action figure based loosely on his cartoon [[character model]], but using a color scheme derived from the Pretender toy. His construction is broadly similar to that used by the ''[[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]]'' figures of the time, having a swivel neck, shoulders and knees, plus ball-jointed hips attached via a steel rod internally secured by a rubber "o-ring". His hands have standard 3 mm holes which allow him to hold any other accessory in the Action Master line, plus his feet have holes in the bottom to secure him to larger vehicles. On top of that, the hole in his back is compatible with [[5 mm post]]s.

: As part of the "Action Blasters Vehicles" assortment, he came with the [[Turbo Jet]], a small personal attack craft that Starscream can set astride like a motorcycle. The Turbo Jet rolls on three small wheels, and can transform into a gun emplacement.

: This mold was [[redeco]]ed as [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#ActionMaster|Action Master Thundercracker]].

The figure was limited to only ''five'' pieces, making it one of the rarest officially-released ''Transformers'' toys in the world, and to cap it off, the toy was not actually shown during the contest, hence its "Secret" moniker. Given its amazingly limited availability, it was not even known what the toy looked like until a picture of it appeared in ''[[Transformers Generations 2009 Volume 2]]'', showing it as being primarily clear and colorless.

:*''Accessories'': 2 missile launchers, 2 missiles, left & right fists, left & right wings, left & right horizontal tail fins, left & right upright tail fins, front landing gear, "sound/light energy unit"

: Part of the very first assortment of ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' product released just in time for the 1992 holiday season, Starscream's original toy was [[redeco]]ed into a very bright white and light gray, with a salmon torso. His original missile launchers have been replaced with a new pair of spring-loaded missile launchers and [[for safety reasons|long missiles]]; the launcher and missile molds were also used for his assortment-mate [[Ramjet (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Ramjet]].

: Also new to this version is a large electronic "sound/light energy unit" in a kinda engine-gun-like shape (a mold also used by Ramjet). Powered by a pair of watch batteries, pressing the two soft-plastic buttons up front activates flashing red lights and sound effects. The left button makes machinegun noises as long as you hold it down, while the right starts an unstoppable jet-noise sequence of rising then falling pitch; you can activate the machinegun sounds in the middle of it, and the jet noises will resume as soon as you release the gun button. This assembly doesn't really go anywhere in robot mode, but attaches to the back end of his jet mode thanks to a trio of pegs that were [[retool|added to his tooling]].

: This version of the mold would have been used to make ''Generation 2'' [[Blackout (G2)|Blackout]].

: A planned-but-more-or-less-canceled redeco of ''Generation 2'' [[Dreadwing (G2)#Toys|Dreadwing]], "Advanced Tactical Bomber" [[Megatron (G1)/toys#ATB|Megatron]] would have come with Starscream, a redeco of Dreadwing's partner [[Smokescreen (G2)#Toys|Smokescreen]]. The pair can combine into the "flying wing" Advanced Tactical Bomber, while Starscream can detach to become a smaller solo jet, leaving Megatron to transform into a treaded tank mode. According the [[Toy Fair]] [[1995]] Transformers presentation, the toy's missiles are intended to [[Glow-in-the-dark|glow in the dark]].

: This figure was only released to test markets in Ohio, USA in very limited quantities, and was never available as a wide release. Some of the few known specimens have [[KB Toys]] pricetags on their boxes. So yeah, not ''exactly'' canceled, but good luck obtaining one.

: This toy's deco was modified to make ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars (Japanese toyline)#1998 (Beast Wars II)|Beast Wars]]'' [[BB (BW)#Toys|BB]] and [[Starscream (BW)#Toys|Starscream]] out of the same mold-set. Importantly, ''this'' Starscream has light gray plastic rather than ''Beast Wars II'' Starscream's silver plastic, as well as an unpainted gray head with a blue faceplate where ''Beast Wars II'' has a painted-black helmet with silver faceplate, and of course, different stickers between the two. The missiles in the set are also [[retool]]ed with a different, pointier back-end, indicating the launchers' interiors were also retooled; this tooling is however completely different from the retooling done to each individual later use of the mold, meaning ''none'' of the missiles are interchangeable between them.

: Starscream's ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' incarnation is a redeco of the [[Predator (subgroup)|Predator]] [[Skyquake (G1)#Toys|Skyquake]], transforming into a large bomber jet based vaguely upon an SR-71 Blackbird. The main feature of the toy is its "carpet bombing" gimmick; each wing contains a drum that holds up to four missiles, which drop out as the drum is rotated. A further two missiles can also store on each wing, and one on each side of his fuselage, but while Skyquake came with enough missiles to fill all these ports, Starscream only comes with ten. The short length of the missiles necessary for this gimmick to function means that Starscream does not come with Skyquake's firing missile launcher, since the missiles are shorter than [[for safety reasons|US safety standards]] allow - although, confusingly, the launcher is still depicted on both the box art and the box toy photos. Starscream also lacks Skyquake's [[Megavisor]] gimmick. The figure also features a barely noticeable yet enormous Decepticon symbol on the [http://www.seibertron.com/transformers-toys/view/machine-wars/starscream/608/2/25/ top of the plane] rendered in black paint on black plastic.

: Starscream is known to have come with [[variant|either]] pale grey missiles better fitting his new color scheme, or bright green missiles like Skyquake's.

: This mold was later redecoed to make [[King Atlas#Toys|King Atlas]]. The toy [[Repurposing|doubles]] as the [[Starscream drone]]s in ''[[Transformers: Wings Universe|Wings Universe]]'' and as [[Starscream (MW)|an unnamed character]] in [[2019 IDW continuity]].

: Starscream would have been made available in the aborted ''[[Transcendent Technomorph|Transtech]]'' series in 2001. Control art and early [[Prototype]] images have surfaced, showing that the toy would have been at the Deluxe scale and featured internal lighting mechanisms that changed color depending on its mode. The toy is clearly a homage to his ''Machine Wars'' body, which at the time of ''Transtech's'' intended release would have been the last form Starscream had inhabited in American markets.

: In 2008, this design would be [[Repurposing|repurposed]] as the [[Transcendent Technomorph|TransTech]] universe's [[Starscream (TransTech)|Starscream]].

: This design was revived by [[Draxhall Jump]] when they were contracted to create the ''[[Marvel Comics|Marvel]] Megamorphs'' line for Toy Biz; Starscream ultimately became the [[Iron Man]] toy.

To make the toy further match Starscream's cartoon appearance, it features a notably lighter shade of blue, and a translucent orange cockpit as opposed to the traditional smoky grey.

It featured functional missile launchers for the first time on a Hasbro version of the toy, but because the launchers now worked, both sets of missiles had to be lengthened [[for safety reasons]].

:As another in an increasingly large number of reissues of the original Generation 1 Starscream toy, this entry in the Japanese-exclusive ''[[The Transformers Collection]]'' line of reissues decided to mix things up by giving the figure a full-scale redeco into [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] colors. His blue plastic became much lighter, while his cockpit was made bright orange, and even featured new grey paint applications running across it. Several of his stickers were replaced with new, show-accurate paint applications, including new wing-stripes and [[tampograph]]ed Decepticon symbols on his wings and nosecone (of course, Starscream didn't have one on his nosecone in the cartoon, so it isn't perfect!).

:Starscream's fists were remolded with new circular peg-holes so he could wield his missile launchers in his hands, which also worked in conjunction with a new tab on the fists' undersides to allow him to hold his new accessory: Megatron in gun mode. This miniature Megatron splits into two pieces at the handle, with each half plugging into the new hole and tab added to each of Starscream's fists. Megatron can also plug into Starscream's underside in jet mode, replicating the time the characters linked up in this fashion in the cartoon episode, "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]". The set also came with a remolded fist for the original Optimus Prime toy, allowing him to hold the Megatron accessory, and a DVD featuring a trailer for the upcoming Playstation 2 video game ''[[The Transformers (G1 PS2)|The Transformers]]'' and Japanese toy [[commercial]]s for Optimus Prime, [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys|Rodimus Prime]] and [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]].

: Standing at only two inches tall, ''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' Starscream is a ''very'' small-scale simplification of the original Starscream toy. It retains a surprising amount of the larger toy's functionality and accessories, except its tail fins and wings are combined into single pieces, and his null-rays and landing gear are left out.

:This mold was, of course, redecoed into ''Smallest Transforming'' versions of Skywarp and Thundercracker, and retooled into Thrust.

: Part of the second wave of Takara's ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' toys, Starscream is a re-imagining of the original Generation 1 figure, retaining its basic [[Transformation|transformation scheme]], but designed to be closer to the animation model, with greater articulation and integrated parts that do not require detachment during transformation. The only pieces that now need to be removed are Starscream's null-ray rifles, which move from his wings to his arms. He has three peg-holes on each arm, allowing the null-rays to be mounted on his shoulders, on his forearms, or in his fists. These holes are also designed to accommodate the generic spring-loaded missile launcher weapon included with ''Robotmasters'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Robotmasters|G1 Convoy]], [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#Robotmasters|Beast Convoy]] and [[Megatron (BW)/toys#Robotmasters|Beast Megatron]].

: Starscream came with two "missile pods" based on weapons Starscream used but once, in the Generation 1 cartoon episode "[[Fire on the Mountain (episode)|Fire on the Mountain]]". These chromed accessories plug into the square holes in Starscream's chest, and feature opening covers that reveal (non-firing) missiles within.

: This mold was redecoed into ''Robotmasters'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Robotmasters|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Robotmasters|Thundercracker]].

**''ID number:'' '''MP-3'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 null-rays, 2 missile racks, [[Doctor Arkeville#Masterpiece|Doctor Arkeville]] pilot figurine, gun clip, two-piece display stand
{{toydesigner|[[Shōji Kawamori]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (initial concept)}}

:The second figure designed in [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' line, this highly-detailed version of Starscream is the "odd man out" of the series, eschewing the slavish cartoon-accuracy of the other ''Masterpiece'' figures in favor of creating as accurate an F-15 Eagle alternate mode as possible, with a somewhat more stylized robot mode. As it happens, this Starscream does not transform into a standard {{w|McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle|F-15 Eagle}}, rather he transforms into an {{w|McDonnell Douglas F-15E Strike Eagle|F-15E Strike Eagle}}; with the dead giveaways being in the conformal fuel tanks on the fuselage, darker aircraft camouflage, and the placement of the real-world-styled decals. The toy features several unobtrusive built-in gimmicks, including ''numerous'' opening panels on his jet mode surface (highlighting the attention this mode received), flip-up panels in his chest that reveal missile racks based on the weapons seen in the Generation 1 episode "Fire on the Mountain", and a rotating face that allows Starscream to switch his expression from stony-faced to sneering. Owners of the toy are given quite a few customization options, as Starscream comes with an extensive sheet of sticker decals, including variously sized Decepticon symbols, and squadron numbers and markings, including one of [[Waspinator (BW)|Waspinator]]!

:In addition to his built-in features, Starscream comes with several accessories. He is armed with both his traditional null-ray rifles, but his familiar cluster bombs are replaced with a rack of (slightly inaccurate) Sidewinder missiles. He also comes with a clip that mounts under his nosecone, allowing him to hold the Megatron pistol accessory that came with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#20th Anniversary.2FMasterpiece|''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime]] in emulation of the way the characters linked up in "S.O.S. Dinobots", and a [[Slug figure|small figurine]] of [[Doctor Arkeville]], his partner in crime from several first-season episodes of the Generation 1 cartoon, which can fit in his cockpit. Finally, he includes a two-piece, reconfigurable display base that allows the figure to be posed in mid-flight in either jet or robot mode, and can store Starscream's accessories while they are not in use. [[Control drawing|Control art]] for ''Masterpiece'' Starscream which showed the figure wearing his [[Transformer clothing|Crown of Leadership]] (as seen in the coronation scene of the original animated movie) and a pair of otherwise-pointless flip-out notches in the finished toy's shoulders indicated that Takara planned for a set of clip-on coronation gear. Ultimately, it would take ''six years'' before these accessories were finally released.

: ''Masterpiece'' Starscream's creation was overseen by famed Japanese mecha designer [[Shōji Kawamori]], who was particularly intent on hiding the robot-mode details on the underside of the fighter mode. The first prototype for the figure was essentially an upgraded, more complex version of the original toy, with much more accurate robot and jet modes, but Kawamori's desire to avoid simply making a new version of an old toy saw the figure go through a major redesign into its finished form. Perhaps the most notable change was the repositioning of Starscream's tail-fin structures from his legs to his hips, with the intent of creating the feel of a samurai wearing a pair of swords at his waist (presumably, if somewhat oddly, based on the then-recent ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|Energon]]'' cartoons' portrayal of their [[Starscream (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Starscream]] as a noble swordsman). Even so, Kawamori was still unhappy with the amount of robotic parts visible underneath the plane, but conceded that too many changes would essentially not make the toy look like Starscream in robot mode. In this pursuit of realism, the most visible concession to the design was the abandonment of his traditional color scheme (which is much closer to a standard F-15's color scheme), replaced with an all-over greenish-tinged grey—a color scheme that is more accurate to the real-world version of the toy's {{w|File:F-15E takes on fuel from KC-10.jpg|F-15E Strike Eagle}} vehicle mode.

:This mold was later retooled into the ''Masterpiece'' versions of [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Thundercracker]], and was recolored by Hasbro into a [[#MasterpieceUS|more cartoon-accurate Starscream color scheme]] released under their ''[[#Classics|Classics]]'' line as well as redecoed into Hasbro's version of Masterpiece [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Universe .282008.29|Skywarp]] under the [[Transformers: Universe (2008 franchise)|Universe]] line. It was also redecoed and retooled to create the eleventh ''Masterpiece'' figure, [[#MP11|Starscream]].

:Though not stated on the package, Starscream is in fact a 1/60 scale F-15. The same scale used by many popular Japanese mecha toys including Kawamori's own ''Macross'' Valkyries. Coincidence?

:Cast almost entirely in translucent plastic, this "Ghost Version" ''Masterpiece'' figure is yet another callback to Starscream's spectral tenure from the Generation 1 cartoon. When purchased from [[e-HOBBY]], buyers received an [[MP-3G Destron Air Commander / Starscream Ghost Ver.|exclusive comic]] packaged with the figure. Surprisingly, Ghost Starscream comes with the same sticker sheet as the original MP-3 Starscream, only with the numbering designation changed.

:Like Gentei Ghost Starscream, Masterpiece Ghost Starscream is cast in light purple translucent plastic instead of just colorless clear plastic like the G1 Ghost Starscream figure.

:''Extreme'' caution is needed while transforming/posing this toy: Several parts of him (especially the wing connectors) are prone to breakage.

**''Accessories:'' Crown, pauldrons (left and right), cape, 2 null-rays, hologram pilot figurine
{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] and [[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Following up on the original plan for the ''Masterpiece'' Starscream figure six years after the fact, MP-11 decks Screamer out in his coronation gear from ''The Transformers: The Movie'', including crown, twin shoulder pads, and a sculpted plastic cape (rather than a fabric one). In addition to his new accessories—which also include a new hologram pilot figure in place of Doctor Arkeville—Starscream features some extensive retooling to wind his ''Masterpiece'' design away from Kawamori's original, less Generation 1-accurate look, with most of the robot mode being newly tooled parts, including chunkier legs that now incorporate his tail-fins, [[retool]]ed shoulders and wingtips that no longer curve into one another, a new head (with collapsible head fins), new heel spurs that flip out for added support in robot mode, and re-engineered null-rays attached to extending armatures that mean they no longer have to be [[Partformer|removed]] for transformation. Despite the similarity to the original MP-3 prototype, the retooled parts are in fact a whole new design heavily based on the original concept. This new version of the mold was redecoed into [[Sunstorm (G1)#Masterpiece|Sunstorm]] and (without the coronation gear) into Hasbro's [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Transformers (2010)|Thundercracker]], [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#MP11SW|Skywarp]] and [[Acid Storm (G1)#Masterpiece|Acid Storm]]. It was later retooled into the [[Seeker (body-type)#Coneheads|Coneheads]] [[Ramjet (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Ramjet]], [[Thrust (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Thrust]] and [[Dirge (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Dirge]], although the mold by that point had noticeably [[Mold#Deterioration|deteriorated]], resulting in numerous quality control issues.

:2013 saw a China-only re-release of MP-11 Starscream. While announced as the same as the original, it featured some changes. Chief among them is the head is no longer molded in light gray plastic painted over gloss black and dark metallic gray (for the face) but it's molded in a more cartoon accurate dark gray (for the helmet) and a lighter metallic gray for the face. This release also features the nosecone molded in light gray plastic rather than molded in blue and then painted over light gray. The black tabs on the top of the jet are now the same grey as the rest of the jet. It also included a collector's coin like the original Asian (excluding Japan) release.

:The figure was reissued once more, this time in Japan, in April 2017 along with several other toys in the line to coincide with the release of the then upcoming MP36 Megatron and features a "Good design award" mark on the box.

:This version was released by Hasbro under ''Generations'' co-branding (see next entry just below).

:The Hasbro version of [[#MP11|MP-11]] differs from the Takara release in a toy-accurate blue nose cone, borders around the Decepticon logo, a slightly different grey plastic, the tabs of the top of the jet are in grey (like the second release of MP-11) and is missing the coronation gear. However, he does come with the stand from previous Masterpiece Seekers and two racks of missiles that can peg onto the bottom of his wings in place of the null-rays. Neither the box nor the instructions mention this, but he comes with the gray clip that can hold the Megatron gun that came with other ''Masterpiece'' figures, such as MP-1 Optimus Prime or MP-13 Soundwave. Official images, including the box art, shows the top of the wings mis-transformed in robot mode.

:Despite still using the numbering system of Hasbro's ''Masterpiece'' line begun in 2013, Starscream was [[co-branding|co-branded]] as part of the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' line. He was available exclusively at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores in the US, Australia, and Canada.

:The third iteration of ''Masterpiece'' Starscream features more cartoon-accurate proportions compared to previous releases. He can also convert into his Gerwalk-styled "Alternate Transformation" while in Jet mode. Popular toy magazine ''Figure King'' profiled this new cartoon/Anime accurate version in issue #242.

:A ''Hobby Magazine'' issue revealed that his chest was redesigned during the prototype's production, allowing the parts to correctly sit flush.

:For accessories, he comes with 5 alternate faces, various effect parts and, like many other newer ''Masterpiece'' figures, a bunch of accessories referring to determinate appearances of the character in the G1 cartoon, such as [[Megatron (G1)/toys#MP52|Megatron]] in gun mode (the first time such an accessory has been included with a ''Masterpiece'' Starscream), the drill arm seen in "[[The Core]]" and the pincer he used in "[[Cosmic Rust (episode)|Cosmic Rust]]" to remove the asteroid fragment from Megatron's arm, alongside said asteroid fragment. He also comes with a 2-piece stand with an adaptable arm, a purple redeco of the one that came with [[Dinobot (BW)/toys#Masterpiece|Dinobot]], plus a specific cradle adapter to attach Starscream in Gerwalk mode to the stand. Numerous cases of hairline cracks have been reported at the wrist joints and tailfin joints.

:Upon the announcement of the second version of ''Masterpiece'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#MP52|Skywarp]], a competition for Starscream's add-on kit was revealed; giving him his iconic crown and cape from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''. Those who purchased Starscream, Skywarp, and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#MP52|Thundercracker]] could snip off a box flap of each figure, mail them in and receive the Coronation set for free. This was only available to those who lived in Japan, but since each box flap had a unique code, there was no household limit to how many one could redeem.

:''Masterpiece'' Starscream Ver. 2.0 was redecoed into the [[TakaraTomy Mall]] [[exclusive]] Thundercracker.

{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro), [[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Don Figueroa]] (concept artist)}}

: Like the other entries in the ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' series, Starscream is a faithful "modernizing" of his original Generation 1 form, updating his original toy with modern standards of toy engineering, transformation, sculpting detail and articulation (not dissimilar in principle from his ''[[#Robotmasters|Robotmasters]]'' incarnation, but with less of an adherence to his cartoon [[character model]]). Sharing many design elements with his ''[[#Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' toy, Starscream still transforms into an F-15 Eagle, but has the nose of an {{w|F-14 Tomcat}} fighter jet. His color scheme is, of course, based on the traditional Starscream palette, but seems to owe its new layout to {{w|File:F-15A first prototype 2.jpg|the original F-15 prototype}}.

:As usual, Starscream is armed with his familiar null-rays, which can mount under his wings, on his shoulders, or in his fists, and fire spring-loaded projectiles. The large size of his null-rays (necessary [[for safety reasons]]) restrict his arm movement somewhat in robot mode, as they bump into his wings. Like all ''Classics'' figures, he has a heat-activated rubsign on his left wing. Certain parts of Starscream, like his back panel and tailfin assemblies, are made of unusually rigid gray plastic that is slightly prone to cracking or breaking, and should be handled with care.

: [[Variant#Running changes|Later versions]] of Starscream saw a [[retool]] in the jet intake area, which involved the slope of his shoulders being decreased, and a fifth small rectangle being added to the vertical area. This version of Starscream is the harder to find of the two, but was used as the basis for all subsequent redecos and retools. Despite its age, the mold has been frequently reused for various Seeker characters in the years since its first use, though its last few uses have exhibited visible signs of mold degredation.

: A [[Walmart]] exclusive, Hasbro's Masterpiece Starscream is an ''extensive'' redeco of the previous year's ''Masterpiece'' figure from Takara, recolored to resemble the character's animation model, down to the orange canopy and the silver nosecone, although the cartoon-accurate silver paint on the nosecone actually covers ''toy''-accurate blue plastic.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/206593-clean-mp-ss-cleanscream-blue-nosecone.html Clean MP SS - Cleanscream(blue nosecone) - tfw2005.com]</ref> In an effort to bring out detail in the sculpt, he has also been given an extensive paint wash to bring out his panel lines. His colors were not the only thing changed, however; the tips of his vertical stabilizers were shortened and rounded, and the plastics used overall have greater resilience to impact and damage than the fragile Japanese release.

:Starscream includes the same accessories as the Takara version of the toy, including a two-piece display stand, null-rays, sidewinder missiles, a small figurine of Doctor Arkeville (which now has the correct skin color), and a clip to hold 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime's Megatron gun while in jet mode. Starscream was finally given the correct tech spec stats he was originally supposed to have back in 1984 for this release, which had been mistakenly given to Skywarp instead.

:Takara got in on the act the following year when they released Hasbro's version of Masterpiece Starscream as a "[[USA Edition]]", adding a Japanese sticker to the Hasbro ''Classics'' packaging. This version of the toy was not without a few changes: the original mold for the tail fins was used, an extra Decepticon symbol was added to Starscream's nosecone (which was present on his original toy, but not his animation model), and his black "scorch mark" [[paint operation]]s were dialed back, and those that remained were switched to a lighter gray.

**''Accessories:'' Left & right missile launchers, 2 missiles
{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

:The second ''Universe'' Starscream toy is a redeco of [[#Classics|''Classics'' Starscream]], with a considerably lighter gray base color, more vibrant red paint, his face painted in dark gray compared to ''Classics'' Starscream's flat gray plastic color for the face and a deco more faithful to Starscream's original Generation 1 toy, very similar to the ''Henkei! Henkei!'' release.

:Several minor changes were made to the sculpt for this release: his launcher pegs were widened, and the peg-holes for them on his shoulders and wings were modified in order to accommodate them. His air intakes were further modified (on top of the changes made to the mold for [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Classics (2006)|''Classics'' Skywarp]]) so that the bottom-most rectangle goes completely across the air intake's surface rather than just the center.

:The figure is reported to suffer from heavy quality control issues, most commonly mentioned are the joints and hinges being incredibly weak. As a result, Starscream's wings are difficult to keep in place in robot mode. The elbows, which previously snapped into place when articulated, now slide freely, and the entire hip joint system can be shifted out of alignment.

:This modified version of the mold was used for ''Henkei! Henkei!'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Henkei! Henkei!|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Thundercracker]].

{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:The first transformable Starscream toy not to turn into a jet, ''[[Transformers: Alternity|Alternity]]'' Starscream transforms into a licensed 1:32 scale {{w|Mitsuoka Orochi}}. Like the other toys in the line, he features [[die-cast]] metal parts and rubber tires, as well as an opening hood, trunk and doors. This is also the only ''Alternity'' mold to feature [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|a fake kibble chest]].

:In car mode, small wings are ''supposed to'' be able to flip out from under Starscream's rear wheels, giving him the appearance of a flying car. Unfortunately, this [[gimmick]] suffers from a rather nasty [[design flaw]]: there is simply not enough clearance under the car for the wheels to be able to pass and hinge through, and attempting to do so will result in the plastic reinforcement struts underneath ''deforming the rims and chipping the tires''. His door panels also tend to detach from their [[ball joint]]s ''very easily''.

:This mold, with a different head sculpt, was also used to make the simultaneously released ''Alternity'' [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Alternity|Skywarp]], and later [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Alternity|Thundercracker]] and [[Banzai-Tron (G1)#Alternity|Banzai Tron]] as well.

: Released in the first wave of the [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010 ''Transformers'' toyline's]] ''[[Transformers (2010 toyline)#Hasbro Reveal the Shield subline|Reveal the Shield]]'' [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] toys, Starscream is a new sculpt based on his Generation 1 jet appearance with many fuselage details borrowed from the [[#Masterpiece|Masterpiece version]]. This is the first Starscream in many years to attempt an entirely new transformation for him, with the arms now forming the rear of the jet and the legs folding under the wings. Amusingly, he has ''two'' cockpits, with the one that is actually part of his jet mode folding ''right behind'' the [[kibble#faux-parts|fake]] one on his chest in robot mode. Starscream also sports a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]] on his starboard (right) wing.

: Early specimens of the toy released in Asia and at United States retail feature an unpainted gray-plastic helmet, a comparatively rare [[variant]]. This variant is the one featured in the Hasbro [[stock photography]], although the stock photo depicting the figure in [[multilingual packaging|European packaging]] has the more common black helmet, as this was the only version ever available at European retail.

: The "Reveal the Shield" Legends figures saw exceedingly limited release at large-scale retail chains in the US. Throughout 2011, they eventually started appearing in discount stores like Ross, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, and Tuesday Morning, with perhaps the largest and most consistent outlet being Five Below stores.

: This sculpt was also redecoed and retooled to make ''[[Transformers Chronicle (toyline)|Chronicle]]'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Chronicle|Thundercracker]] and [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Chronicle|Skywarp]], as well as ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Generations|Thundercracker]] and [[Transformers (2014 toyline)|''Transformers'' (2014)]] [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Transformers (2014)|Skywarp]].

Although the head is based on G1 Starscream, the body's design, especially the broad body, is similar to [[Starscream (Movie)|movie Starscream]]. The set comes with a ''very'' Generation-1-inspired Starscream [[Kreon]], as well as a [[human]] [[Pilot (Kre-O)|Pilot]].

:The Starscream Kreon's helmet has been reused by a metric buttload of other Kreons. (That's 1.1 American buttloads.)

:This set was also available in a [[Costco]]-exclusive two-pack with the [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Prowl]] kit, which was basically just the two packages shrinkwrapped together.

: Part of the third wave of [[2012]]-onwards ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' Deluxe Class toys, ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' [[Starscream (WFC)#Generations|Starscream]] transforms into a Cybertronian jet fighter. He comes with two spinning, triple-barreled "assault cannons" which can combine to form a larger hand-held weapon that is geared to spin its two triple-barrels together, and resembles the [[Neutron assault rifle]] from ''Fall of Cybertron''. Each of the weapon halves features two [[5 mm post]]s, as well as a peg-hole on their hollow sides, while the combined form features another peg-hole at the top, but makes the peg-holes on the hollow sides inaccessible. Starscream features numerous 5mm peg-holes, such as his hands, forearms, lower legs, and wing undersides.

: In an undocumented feature, Starscream's tail-fin is attached via a 5 mm post on its underside, and can be detached to reveal three additional peg-holes, with two of these peg-holes being just the right distance to accommodate the two pegs found on the underside of the combined assault cannons/rifle, with the tail-fin pegging on the rifle's top peg-hole. This allows the weapon to mount on top of the vehicle mode, and store on his back in robot mode.

: He was later redecoed into ''Fall of Cybertron'' [[Skywarp (WFC)#Generations|Skywarp]] and ''Thrilling 30'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#T30Deluxe|Thundercracker]] and [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Thrilling 30|Skywarp]].

He comes with two removable null-rays that have both 5 mm and 3 mm pegs.

: Alluding to the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'' episode "[[Possession]]", Starscream is partnered with [[Waspinator (BW)/toys#Generations|Waspinator]], who can transform into a wasp, a robot with 3 mm-compatible hands, and a gun with 5mm handle.

: Another release of the ''Reveal the Shield'' Legends Class sculpt, this time as an odd mish-mash of prior releases. The tooling is identical to the 2012 release's running change variant, with the retooled hands and holes inside his wings compatible with [[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]] [[C joint|3mm]] pegs, while the deco is nigh-identical the ''[[Transformers Chronicle (toyline)|Chronicle]]'' release, with the fully-black hemlet making for a weird-looking jet-mode nosecone. The toy also now sports a large "CE" mark on the inside of one of the tailfins and number on the inner right leg, declaring the toy meets European product safety requirements. A later [[variant]] replaced the purple Decepticon insignia with black versions.

: Bizarrely, the [[package art]] is lifted directly from the ''Generations'' Legends Class Starscream/Waspinator two-pack's packaging, whereas the [[stock photography|stock photos]] depicted on the back of the packaging are taken from ''Reveal the Shield'' Starscream's packaging and only slightly altered, advertising a "[[Transformers (2010 toyline)#Hasbro Reveal the Shield subline|Reveal the Shield]]" [[rubsign]] [[gimmick]] the toy doesn't actually have. Meanwhile, Hasbro's official stock photos provided to online retailers (including an in-packaging photo) depict the toy with the null-rays that came with the running change variant of the sculpt's 2012 release, even though the actual toy doesn't include the weapons.

:Legion Class Starscream has been found at Family Dollar and Dollar General stores in the United States. The later version was also released at general retail in Australia, New Zealand, and Europe. This figure was re-released in 2017 in a minor variant of the 2014 version's packaging (including the original product code number and barcode) that now lacked the reference to the non-existing "Reveal the Shield" gimmick.

:Like [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Transformers (2014)|Bumblebee]] and [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Transformers (2014)|Optimus Prime]], the black insignia variant of the toy ended up being dumped to some hobby shop dealers in Asia, and even returned to discount stores like Five Below and 99 Cents Only in the US in 2020.

: Part of Wave 1 of [[Construct-Bots]] Scouts, Starscream can transform into a jet. He has a paint error on his head, with his eyes colored blue instead of red. Also, only the left 1/3 of his helmet painted its proper black, with the rest being left in unpainted gray. Rarely 2/3 of it is black, and if you're lucky, the whole head might be black! Hallelujah!

*'''Starscream''' (Action Figure, 2014)
**''Pieces: '''9'''
**''Accessories'': Wing-pack

: Part of the first wave of ''Transformers [[Hero Mashers]]'' basic Action Figures, Starscream is a non-transforming action figure with ratchet-joints, about six inches tall. He has multiple peg-holes all over that can be used to mount any ''Hero Mashers'' accessory. As a first-wave figure, he has extra ankle articulation that is not present in later waves (a cut that was made to all ''Hero Mashers'' lines, not just the ''Transformers''-branded ones).

: He is designed with a removable head, forearms, thighs, and lower legs, all of which use the same clip-peg/hole joint. This means his pieces can be swapped around in any order, as well as swapped with any other ''Hero Mashers'' figure... which includes figures from [[Marvel Comics]], ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'', and ''[[Jurassic Park|Jurassic World]]'', meaning you can make some pretty freaky combinations.

:Rather than coming with a (nominally) hand-held weapon accessory, Starscream comes with a wing-pack. Of course, being a ''Hero Mashers'' piece, it can be attached anywhere, including being hand-held, and the wings have multiple gun barrels on them, so have a blast.

: His right forearm was [[redeco]]ed to make [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Skywarp]]'s arm in the [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Hero Mashers|Battle Upgrade Megatron]] set.

:Starscream's torso sculpt is noticeably similar to that of the [[Titan Heroes|Titan Guardian]] Starscream released at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] in [[2013]].

:''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' Starscream transforms from a robot that utilizes the [[Evergreen]]-styled design into a fighter jet. He also features some markings on his jet mode: an Autobot kill count on the right side of the cockpit, and a Decepticon symbol with the number "D-22" (a reference to Starscream's Japanese ID number). Starscream can also form the torso of [[Starscream Combiner|an unnamed combiner]] using any selection of ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]''-style Deluxe Class figures as limbs. His instructions and [[TakaraTomy]] stock photos depict him with the ''Power of the Primes'' Deluxe Class figures from Wave 1. He also includes Prime Armor that can hold a [[Prime Master]] (and by extension, a [[Titan Master]], [[Enigma of Combination#Generations|Enigma]], or [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Power of the Primes|Matrix core]]) and can turn into feet for said unnamed combiner. The silhouette of Starscream's torso mode appears to homage the robot mode of another [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]]. Like all the other Voyager Class figures, Starscream includes an Enigma of Combination (dubbed the ''Seeker Enigma''), based on a Prime Master, which can attach to Starscream via the previously mentioned Prime Armor or the combined mode chest, which can also facilitate the other previously mentioned objects.

:There are several reports of the peg that connects the wings often refusing to connect well. In 2018, a running change was made in the re-release of the toy: the peg that connects between the wings and the robot back has been retooled to connect firmly. The only way to identify this running change is the code "73101" stamped onto the box.

:Part of the second wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' Voyager Class figures, Starscream transforms from a heavily G1-inspired robot into a Cybertronian 'tetrajet' based on the [[Seeker (body-type)|Seekers']] appearance in "[[More than Meets the Eye, Part 1]]", although the jet mode has <s>the robot-mode legs</s> pretty much his ''entire robot body'' sticking out from the undercarriage. He includes two "HPI Null-Ray Laser Launchers," which can mount on his upper arms or under the wings in jet mode (or in any other 5 mm port, really). As part of the ''Siege'' [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]], Starscream has 5 mm ports on his biceps, forearms, shins, under his feet (vehicle-mode thrusters), and wings. The 3 mm pegs on his shins, forearms, left bicep, and the tips of his null-rays can accommodate effects parts (sold separately). Similar to his wavemate [[Soundwave (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Soundwave]], Starscream is absolutely ''slathered'' in battle damage paint — it's heavily present on his legs, chest, forearms, and the ''entirety'' of his jet form.

:Like the rest of ''Siege'', his robot mode focuses on articulation, with double-jointed elbows, knees that bend at nearly 180 degrees, ankle rockers, and especially waist articulation being notable articulation points for a Starscream toy. As an interesting design addition, he also has spring-loaded panels in his lower legs to avoid hollow gaps when viewed from the back. As a rather heavy shellformer, Starscream can easily be separated into both a wingless robot mode and a nearly complete tetrajet via a single friction hinge.

:Speaking of friction hinges, the initial release of Starscream suffers from a production flaw: his robot-mode chest easily pops off during transformation as a result of a late design change that removed a pin from the chest without adjusting plastic tolerances. Said initial releases also use the live-action "angry eyes" design for his Decepticon insignia. One or both errors were corrected for later wave shipments; both were fixed by the time the figure shipped again with Voyager Class [[Springer (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Springer]]. While the pin wasn't added back in, the plastic used for the grey strut the chest piece attaches to uses a stiffer plastic that is less likely to cause it to pop off.

:Amusingly, the panel on his instruction sheet that demonstrates where to attach C.O.M.B.A.T. weapons depicts him mistransformed, with his left forearm opened along the transformation hinge. He is also slightly mistransformed in-package, with his arms rather adorably left unextended and the panel behind the head not being locked in place between the shoulder pylons.

:The original figure eventually became a notorious shelfwarmer, due to him being reissued in the third wave and coincidentally around the time that the ''Earthrise'' figure was revealed at NYCC 2019.

{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Released as part of the ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'' Voyager Class lineup, this version of Starscream is a cartoon-accurate mold. He transforms into an F-15 jet based on his traditional alternate mode and features a pair of G1-accurate null-rays. His design and transformation scheme is heavily based on his [[#Classics|2006 ''Classics'' figure]] while adding points of articulation the earlier figure did not have such as pivoting ankles, a more expressive ball-jointed head, and hinges that allow the wings to fold backward in robot mode.

:The stock renders have some minor differences from the prototype seen at New York Comic Con. The renders depict the section of his chest that covers part of his cockpit as being unpainted red. At the same time, the prototype has it painted a more animation-accurate white, also present on renders featuring [[Smashdown]], and ''four'' null-rays on his Jet mode, with two of them attached at the turbines of his chest, which is impossible to do on the toy. The render also depicts his shoulder joints as being molded in blue and knee joints in white, whereas the prototype has their colors swapped.

:While the null-rays can be wielded by his pair of hands, it's almost impossible for him to properly hold them due to the size of his forearms. He still can hold the [[Megatron_(G1)/Generations_toys#E33|Megatron]] gun from the ''Selects'' [[Centurion_droid#Toys|Centurion Droid]] very finely, though.

:At least ''one'' copy features a factory misassembled figure with a newly tooled head sculpt<ref>https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/alternate-head-for-earthrise-starscream.1190272/</ref> (with his expression being based on him being disintegrated by Galvatron in ''The Transformers: The Movie'') which was meant for [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Skywarp]].

:Like all Earthrise toys, the inside of the back of Starscream's package includes an exclusive clip-and-save piece of a larger star map. Also in the box is a thin red piece of transparent plastic with which to read markings on the map. Unusually for a larger Earthrise toy, Starscream's piece of the map does not contain the labeled location of a named planet; however, it does include an unlabeled image of the planet [[Jupiter]], slightly obscured by another smaller sphere. It also shows a sliver of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], one of several planets too big for one map piece.

:Both this release and all subsequent releases of the mold have a missing molded panel-line detail on the right wing hinge that is supposed to curve in towards the body of the jet. The reason for this missing detail is likely due to it missing from the metal mold itself.

:''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' Core Class Starscream is a roughly Legends-sized toy that can interact with Titan Class figures, although its product description states that it is designed to pose with larger Starscream toys. The mold's sculpting is heavily inspired by its larger ''Earthrise'' counterpart, though featuring a gray pelvis instead of a red one and having the underside of Starscream's wings facing forward. Starscream comes with his signature weapons—a pair of null-rays, which can either be plugged into his arms or held as handguns.

:The peg holes featured on Starscream's shoulders are hexagonal as opposed to circular, which means that the Null Rays are prone to popping off when rotated onto that peg hole.

:Most, if not, ''all'' releases of this mold suffer from a shallow groove sculpt on the lower right leg compared to the left leg.

:Obviously, this figure was redecoed for both ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy]]'' Core Class [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Legacy|Skywarp]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Legacy|Thundercracker]].

:Part of the 8th wave of ''[[Studio Series]]'' Leader Class toys, "Coronation Starscream" is a retool of the ''Earthrise'' Starscream [[#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|above]], with newly-molded hands with hinged knuckles, the coronation gear from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', a second pair of null-rays, and the ''[[Nemesis (G1)|Nemesis]]'' [[:File:Mtmte1 megatron throne.jpg|command chair]] from "[[More than Meets the Eye, Part 1]]." The toy lacks the paint applications on his tail fins and the gunmetal grey below and above his shin vents, but adds additional grey squares to his jet mode for [[:File:TFTM Starscream Jet.jpg|closer accuracy]] to the movie. Additionally, various colors are a slightly different shade (red is more crimson, helmet is more gunmetal, blue is more electric) and the Decepticon sigils on his wings are larger. Strangely, the pins on the legs of the ''Earthrise'' version have been swapped out for screws. Because of how the index-to-pinky fingers are designed, it results in a rather strange-looking fist when closed.

:The cape is sculpted plastic that is hinged to flair out like the [[#MP11|''Masterpiece'' MP-11 toy]] above, however the cape cannot flare up to a 90 degree angle without clashing against the ground. it also has a C.O.M.B.A.T. System-style 5 mm post, allowing [[:File:BlasterG2.jpg|anyone compatible]] to have a lavender cape. The shoulder pads feature flip-down panels with a 5 mm port to attach the differently-molded null-rays, designed to fit with the new armor pieces. By coincidence or design, these additional null-rays can fit into his new hands (if they are completely closed) without bumping into the forearms like the original pair. Naturally, these add-ons, barring the Coneheads for the crown, fit other versions of the ''Earthrise'' Seeker mold, so have fun!

: The "throne" features storage on the back for all the accessories, including multiple 5 mm ports. Starscream himself can only barely sit in it (without the cape on, of course), but the more source-appropriate ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Megatron]] toy fits in very nicely.

: Like all other uses of the mold, Starscream has a missing molded panel-line detail on the right wing hinge that is supposed to curve in towards the body of the jet. The reason for this missing detail is likely due to it missing from the metal mold itself.

: Starscream proved to be a notorious [[shelfwarmer]] in 2022 & 2023, owing to being a repack of the widely-distributed ''Earthrise'' figure at a higher price with a few more accessories, as well as being ordered in bulk. Not helping matters was the fact he got repacked in the following wave containing [[Sludge_(G1)#Studio_Series|Sludge]].

:First revealed on the [[August 13]]th, 2021 [[Hasbro Pulse#Fan First Friday|Fan First Friday]], the toy is the first to show off the Leader Class window-less packaging, starting in 2022, which allows for expanded [[package art]]. The package art faithfully emulates Starscream's coronation in the movie down to [[Ramjet (G1)|Ramjet]] standing in the background to Starscream's left, but [[Thrust (G1)|Thrust]] is present instead of [[Astrotrain (G1)|Astrotrain]] on Starscream's right. Like the other ''Studio Series'' toys, the interior of the package forms a display backdrop. Starscream's backdrop depicts the [[Hall of Heroes]], where his ill-fated coronation took place.

:Walmart once again reissued the original Starscream toy in 2023 under the ''[[Transformers Retro]]'' label. Unlike the ''Vintage G1'' release, however, ''Retro'' Starscream has been redecoed in colors inspired by his appearance in the original ''Transformers'' animated series, more specifically ''The Transformers: The Movie''. He remains a mash-up of the ''Commemorative Series'' and ''The Transformers Collection'' reissues, with the former's elongated null rays and cluster bombs and the latter's gun mode Megatron accessory.

:Unlike the original versions of his fists from ''The Transformers Collection'' reissue, the fists of this version are cast in black plastic and ''painted'' blue. The added paint makes the post on the bottom of his fists thicker than they should be, so attaching the lower portion of the Megatron gun can be difficult.

: All of the parts that were originally cast in [[unpaintable plastic]] remain cast in opaque colors, as the unpaintable parts are required for the figure to function. This ultimately means that the full transparent "ghost" effect suffers as a result of the mold layout, since the parts that make up his biceps, forearms and hands are also a part of the unpaintable plastic molds.

==Notes==
[[File:G2SSJungleprotojet.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb]]
* During the development of the [[Conehead]]s, [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]] was initially planned as new wing tooling attached to an unchanged Starscream body. This [[prototype]] plan lasted long enough to receive [[package art]], which was published decades later in ''[[Legacy: The Art of Transformers Packaging]]''.
* In the 1990s, Hasbro evidently had more redeco plans for Starscream (and the paired [[Ramjet (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Ramjet]]) that fell through:
** A hand-painted mock-up and accompanying artwork for a proposed Generation 2-era redeco of Starscream appeared in auctions on eBay, amongst similar items put up for sale from the collection of a former Hasbro employee. In [[2020]], this black redeco of Starscream was revealed to have been labeled by Hasbro as "[[Blackout (G2)|Blackout]]". Said redeco was probably planned for release alongside the Ramjet redeco named "[[Sandstorm (G2)|Sandstorm]]".
** Another unproduced redeco of Starscream for the ''Generation 2'' line was found in 2007, in an auction on eBay. It is commonly known to the fandom as "jungle attack Starscream" (as seen to the right). It is unclear if it was intended to be another Starscream toy or a new character; it may have been paired for release with "[[Cloudcover|cloud camo Ramjet]]", who was discovered at a similar level of "completion".
* During early planning for ''Beast Wars'', Hasbro conceived [[McDonald's]] toys of vehicular [[Auto Roller (G2)|Auto Roller]]s, including one of Starscream as a jet.<ref>[https://www.instagram.com/p/CJIcRo5Aqym/ ]</ref> This toy concept may have been a parallel idea to the unreleased ''Generation 2'' [[jet Auto Roller]] ultimately used in Japan as ''Beast Wars II'' [[Autojetter#Toys|Autojetter]].
* Aside from Starscream's ''Unite Warriors'' Deluxe Class toy (as the alternate head of ''Combiner Wars'' [[Skydive (G1 Aerialbot)#Generations|Skydive]]) and his ''Power of the Primes'' Voyager Class toy (as his own body tooling), Hasbro also designed an unused combining body for Starscream as the "pretooled" alternate head of ''Combiner Wars'' Voyager Class [[Cyclonus (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Cyclonus]]. Presumably, the [[Galvatronus (CW)#Toys|Galvatronus]] Combiner head would be redecoed in homage to Starscream's famous crown.

Megatron (G1)/Generations toys

Much like [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]], the [[Decepticon]] leader also continues to receive more toys than the average ''[[Transformers brand|Transformers]]'' character. While '''[[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]''' doesn't have quite as many toys as his nemesis, he is one of ''at least'' [[Bumblebee (G1)|four]] [[Starscream (G1)|main]] characters that are guaranteed to get a new toy just about every year.

For the sake of finding an easy and definitive split from the main toy article, we have opted to make this page strictly for the various ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]''-branded toylines, as this appears to be the brand [[Hasbro]] will likely continue adding Generation 1 characters to for the foreseeable future.

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Frankel]] (Hasbro)}}
:''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' Megatron is an Asian market and Toys"R"Us-exclusive redeco/retool of ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen: N.E.S.T. Global Alliance]]'' Voyager Class [[Bludgeon (ROTF)#Voyager|Bludgeon]], sporting a new, smiling head. Megatron transforms from a Japanese {{w|Type 90 Kyū-maru|Type 90}} tank into a samurai-esque robot mode. He features a flexible plastic sword which is made out of a portion of the barrel of the tank's main gun, as well as a smaller dagger. The dagger can be stored in a sheath which is revealed from inside the tank turret, and both blades can be slotted in holes provided on the robot mode's left hip guard. The larger sword has a peghole at the bottom of the hilt; though it is specifically designed to allow the dagger's handle to fit in the base to form a double-bladed weapon, it can also fit any other accessory that uses [[5 mm post]]s. The post used to combine the swords remains unobstructed in vehicle mode, meaning you can attach the dagger to the end of Megatron's main tank cannon if you're feeling silly. He also has [[Mech Alive]] [[gimmick]]s in his thighs and turret: sculpted cylinders in his thighs rotate whenever his lower legs are rotated, and pulling his turret open makes a sculpted white "disc" at the center rotate while a scabbard for the tantō hinges over to the side and props itself up for use.

:The vehicle mode is one of the very few Transformer tank toys with rubber components to its treads. Portions of the tread links can unlock, allowing them to hang from the robot mode, while the wheels of the treads are integrated separately into the robot mode form itself. The treads still do not function realistically; small plastic wheels on the underside of the treads help the tank mode roll, as is standard with nearly all Transformer tank toys. On the plus side, the tank turret can be rotated a full three-hundred sixty degrees, as can the purple machine gun that sits atop the turret.

:Unlike the other uses of this mold, Megatron comes [[Packaging|packaged]] in robot mode holding his swords, with additional plastic and paper ties in the tray imperfectly holding his swords in position. Because they were packaged this way since they were shipped out of the factory, most Megatrons come with the swords being badly bent and warped in the box. Fortunately, the swords' blades can be mostly straightened by leaving them sheathed in their hidden scabbards. Straightening their ''hilts'' is a different matter, though.

:As a redeco of the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Bludgeon mold, it is highly likely that Megatron is cursed with the same design fault as his brethren - the rubber treads break down over the course of years, causing them to corrode spots of plastic and leave melty gashes behind.

:This version of the mold was also used to make ''[[Transformers Cloud|Cloud]]'' [[Megatron (Cloud)#Toys|Megatron]], while the original version was redecoed into ''[[Transformers (2010 toyline)|Hunt for the Decepticons]]'' [[Banzaitron (TF 2010)#Toys|Banzaitron]], and differently retooled to make ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Overlord (G1)#Timelines|Gigatron]].

:Part of the fourth wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Legends Class toys, ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' Megatron is roughly the same size as a ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' Commander Class toy. He transforms from a generic tank with rotating turret into a robot based on his [[Alex Milne]] pre-war design as seen in "[[Chaos Theory Part 1]]" from [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s 2009-2011 ''[[The Transformers (IDW)|The Transformers]]'' comic series, and features [[5 mm post|5 mm-compatible]] ports for his hands and left forearm/turret roof.

:Part of the fifth wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Deluxe Class toys, ''Thrilling 30'' Megatron is based on [[Don Figueroa]]'s stealth bomber design from the IDW Publishing [[Heart Like a Wheel|''The Transformers'' vol. 1]] ongoing series (which resembles a Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit). In robot mode, his wingtips detach to combine and transform into his [[Fusion cannon#Deluxe|fusion cannon]] (although it's actually designed after the [[rail gun]] this body was equipped with in IDW's comics, but of course Hasbro couldn't call it ''that'' on a toy's packaging). The cannon can peg into 5mm ports on his hands and forearms. This design was actually taken from an official pitch without Figueroa's permission and with no compensation to the artist, a fact he was rather sore about.<ref>[http://www.seibertron.com/energonpub/don-figueroa-designed-idw-s-stealth-bomber-megatron-but-wasn-t-compensated--t96022s0.php "So I read that this was being made into a toy? wow, and I thought only 3rd party companies take stuff without giving any notice, acknowledgement or compensation... FYI: hasbro nor idw solicited me to do this design, I did it on my own."]</ref>

*'''Megatron''' (Leader Class, [[2015]])
**''Accessories'': Two guns (combine to form rifle), missile
{{toydesigner|[[John Warden]] (Hasbro)}}

:Part of the first wave of 2015 ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Leader Class toys, Megatron transforms from a robot heavily inspired by his Generation 1 animation model into a tank featuring working treads. He includes a sticker sheet featuring two each of Decepticon and Autobot [[insignia]] (the latter in reference to IDW's ''[[The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More than Meets the Eye]]''), plus stickers intended to replicate those on the original Megatron toy's chest and fusion cannon. Megatron also comes packaged with a collector's card featuring art from the initial release of the ''[[Transformers Legends (mobile game)|Transformers Legends]]'' mobile game. His box-back bio bears a superficial similarity to our wiki's article on [[Megatron (WFC)|another Megatron]]. He features a spark chamber hatch which is sculpted in likeness to the one seen in "[[Master Blaster]]". In a feature that goes undocumented in Megatron's instructions, his two combining guns can store underneath the rear of his alternate mode. Although the website description & the package billed the transformation as "15 steps", the toy actually has ''10'' steps. In keeping with that simplicity, his articulation is more limited than one might expect of a toy this size, with his restrictive knee articulation and lack of ankle joints making it tricky for him to stand in dynamic poses.

:In robot mode, Megatron's fusion cannon is on a pinned swivel, allowing it to be flipped in either direction, and appears to have been deliberately shaped to evoke the fusion cannon's traditional look no matter which way it faces. With the missile-firing tip backwards, the swivel piece allows the cannon to fold further out to the side, giving enough clearance for the arm to bend up to 90 degrees. In this configuration, the visible swivel piece matches the hexagonal detailing on the traditional cannon design, and a grooved dial sculpted into the cannon is slightly angled such that it perfectly matches the vertical position of the adjustment dial on the original scope/cannon. Of course, in that configuration Megatron can't shoot anyone with his missile, so where's the fun in that, you silly nerd?

:Select aspects of this design, such as the leg-mounted treads, the general transformation sequence and the tank alt-mode, were used to represent G1 Megatron in ''[[Transformers: Devastation]]''. The toy meanwhile was retooled into [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Generations|''Armada'' Megatron]], which was released at the same time. This mold’s tank mode bears almost no specific resemblance to that Megatron’s original ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' toy, but in a concession to that character’s legacy, both versions of this mold feature ''Armada''-style [[Mini-Con]] connection ports; a rarity in any year of the ''Generations'' toyline.

**''Accessories'': Fusion Cannon, Rifle, Doomshot Titan Master
{{toydesigner|[[John Warden]] (Hasbro)}}

:''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' Megatron transforms from robot to tank to plane and back. Megatron comes with [[Doomshot#Toys|Doomshot]], a [[Titan Master]] who becomes his head. The G1 toy-accurate 'scrollwork' details on his chest and all Decepticon insignias (on his robot mode chest, jet nosecone, and tank tread cowling) are chrome-backed, factory-applied, low-quality stickers which are notoriously prone to peeling off at the slightest disturbance. As their chrome-backed nature clashes heavily with Megatron's otherwise unpainted torso, replacing them is recommended. His wing stickers are similarly metallic, but appear to adhere better and clash less with the figure's overall aesthetic.

:The fusion cannon is shown in stock renders to be solid black, while the final one is light grey plastic dipped in black paint with the posts left bare. His dark-grey plastic is nowhere near as dark as the stock renders shows, though it is still darker than the light-grey plastic.

:Like all Voyager Class ''Titans Return'' figures, he has a pair of pop-up parts to fill in the area around his head; in this case, a pair of missile racks. While it initially looks like his chest does not contain a pivoting assembly for better range of movement on Megatron's neck, there is in fact one hidden under the grey parts that form his robot mode collar that allow the missile racks and the Titan Master port to turn in either direction.<ref name="neck">[https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/titans-return-voyager-megatron-and-doomshot.1092333/page-18#post-14975031 Detailed look on TFW2005.com]</ref> Due to the nature of his transformation it is possible to transform Megatron into tank mode without removing his head, though this leaves it completely exposed at the back of the tank.

:His fusion cannon can plug into the short barrel of the tank turret or the rifle/Titan Master vehicle weapon. In an undocumented additional feature, the rifle can be inserted into the front end of the fusion cannon. The fusion cannon can be mounted on his forearm or held by any figure with 5mm hands. It also has a peg hole that an accessory such as his rifle can plug into, with extra square peg holes specifically to hold the rifle in place. The tank cannon on his turret, while held in ''very'' hard by a pair of ridges and a 5mm post, can also be removed; it can be pegged in by its 5mm post barrel onto a peghole in Megatron's shoulder to recreate G1 Megatron's classic shoulder barrel.

:The instructions for robot-to-tank transformation suggest that you move his robot mode chestplate downwards into the collapsed jet position. It appears to have a clearance issue, with the chest protruding too far; leaving it in robot mode position will ensure there are no clearance issues. However, the chest ''can'' be made to fit better by putting it into position before transforming the treads, preventing the tread panels from getting in the way. Also in some copies of the toy, Megatron's left and right leg panels will randomly pop and stick out. This is especially prominent in tank and jet mode.

:This mold was retooled into [[Blitzwing (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Blitzwing]], and redecoed into ''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Legends|G2 Megatron]] and ''[[Street Fighter II × Transformers]]'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Street Fighter II × Transformers|Megatron]] <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[M.

The sides of his gun mode are entirely cast in clear red plastic, his arms are a different shade of red plastic and there is red paint on the legs as well–in addition to the bright orange parts on both the tip of the barrel and the scope, just like the ''Classics'' figure.

:''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' Megatron transforms from a G1 cartoon-esque robot to a <s>Grizzly battle tank from the ''Command & Conquer'' series</s> Cybertronian tank and back! Megatron's robot mode is pretty accurate to the original cartoon, despite having a completely different altmode. He is armed with 2 weapons compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]], one of which is his trademark [[fusion cannon]] called the "D50-R35 Fusion Cannon". The other is the "HPR Telescopic Laserstrike Launcher," with two symmetrical blades facing the opposite direction, and can transform into a large sword resembling the sword included in the Takara release of the [[Megatron (G1)/toys#Generation 1|original Generation 1 toy]] and can be stored on his back. It can also be mounted on his back to resemble the gun barrel on the original cartoon model's back. Both can combine into the insanely large "NFM Particle Beam Megalauncher," which is meant to be held in his hands or over his head. Like his contemporaries in the ''Siege'' toyline, Megatron features 'battle damage' paint applications all over his head, chest, arms, and legs.

:Due to the way Megatron transforms, it's possible to rotate the turret 180 degrees and use the fusion cannon solely as the tank barrel, in the event one should lose the "Laserstrike Launcher" accessory; while not as aesthetically pleasing as the intended transformation, it still works.

:Megatron also suffers a slight design flaw: unlike with the left ankle, the right ankle's pivoting joint has a tendency to not lock back to its straight position once it is unlocked. The only way to amend this is by pressing the top end of the black plastic peg on the right foot. The light grey backpack/central front tank kibble also has a tendency to dislodge if his waist is moved left or right. Due to the Fusion Cannon's slightly longer post, the hand's dorsal panel slightly protrudes when in tank mode.

:There is a message written in [[Cybertronian language|Cybertronian letters]] on Megatron's box art, which reads "RISE FROM THE SHADOWS". Megatron's pose in the instruction manual's front cover is based on the [[:File:Megatronguido.jpg|promotional artwork]] by [[Guido Guidi]].

:Amusingly, the first TakaraTomy (and later, Hasbro's secondary) stock photos of his robot mode depict him wielding the fusion cannon like a handheld weapon.

:Megatron was a notorious shelfwarmer, particularly in Asia, often unsold in large numbers.

His silver paint is also a lighter shade while the other paint applications are a darker shade. The set includes the translucent purple "[[Skelivore#Toys|Fossilizer Skelivore]]", the [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Spoiler|Matrix of Leadership]] on a bandolier, and a compound through which a buyer can dig to reveal two blue "Fire Blast" effects (redecoed from ''Earthrise'' [[Slitherfang#Toys|Slitherfang]] and [[Doublecrosser (Earthrise)#Toys|Doublecrosser]]'s effects parts) and the [[AllSpark#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Allspark]].

:The Matrix bandolier can latch onto his robot mode chest or his tank turret, and the Allspark is compatible with the 3 mm effects part system, featuring a 3 mm port on one face and a shallow 3 mm post of its own on the opposite side. Skelivore can use the C.O.M.B.A.T. System/[[F.O.S.S.I.L. Technology]] to weaponize Megatron, with two official configurations, and their head specifically evoking Megatron's classic [[energon mace]].

:Much like previous Spoiler Packs, this set is in a windowless box designed to look like an ammo crate and features translatable [[Cybertronian language|Ancient Autobot]] inside the box. The lateral side of the package also features artwork of Megatron, reused from the ''Kingdom'' [[:File:Kingdom Golden Disk Megatron returns to pits.jpg|Wave 2 Golden Disk card]]. Compared to the previous [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Spoiler Pack]], the packaging itself uses less cardboard and tape and has two Decepticon-themed quotes as opposed to one Autobot and one Decepticon. The "spoiler" text reads "WITH THE MATRIX IN HAND / I CAN WIN THE ALLSPARK / AND USE IT TO RESHAPE / CYBERTRON IN MY IMAGE" and "TAKE THE MATRIX / MEGATRON THEN THE / ALLSPARK MAY IT HAVE / MERCY ON YOU", quotes from Megatron and Optimus Prime respectively from [[Kingdom episode 4|''Kingdom'' episode 4]], though Megatron's quote in the cartoon lacks "With the Matrix in hand".

:Megatron's renders in the instructions feature the battle damage from the first [[#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Netflix ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' toy]], as opposed to the battle damage on this release. Also, the image showing the completely assembled second official weaponizer configuration in the instructions depicts the included effect parts being plugged onto the ends of the back-mounted cannons to simulate muzzle-flash effects; however, this configuration is impossible with the selected effect part mold types that were included with this set.

:As with other Netflix-series figures, this Spoiler Pack was exclusive to Walmart in Canada and the United States. This set was also available as a Kmart exclusive in Australia and was on [[Hasbro Pulse]] in the US and the UK in limited quantities.

:Released as part of the third and final wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'' Voyager Class toys, Megatron is a heavy retool of ''Siege'' Megatron that converts into an Earth-based tank (particularly resembling an M1A2 Abrams) while sharing a mostly identical transformation scheme (and parts, such as the thighs, feet, front of the upper arms, forearms, and various inner parts). Megatron also retains the "battle damage" paint his ''Siege'' figure featured, mostly focused around his legs and tank body. Unlike the stock render, the rear half of Megatron's shoulders are molded in black plastic. Megatron also features a "D-16" marking on the left side of his tank body, referencing his Japanese ID number.

:Like the ''Siege'' figure, Megatron's turret also doubles as a melee weapon, though it must be forearm mounted in order to use the blade. The blade can be a shield if paired with the sword from the ''Siege'' toy above. To try and reduce his alternate mode's resemblance to an H-tank, he has a [[Partformer|partforming]] piece that is attached between his shins, or onto the bladed weapon. Stock photography for the above ''Generations Selects'' redeco shows the melee weapon can plug into his back as a back-mounted cannon, much like his "G1" cartoon design, and the filler part can be a forearm-mounted shield.

:The new tooling to keep his head/neck flap more secure can make pulling his head out while transforming him to robot mode ''very'' difficult; the strain of doing so can cause the ball joint socket to crack, and form stress marks on his cheeks. This can be remedied by pushing the flap up from beneath using the filler/shield piece tabs.

:The unpaintable plastic parts, such as the thighs and the joints, are prone to [[photodegradation]].

:Like all ''Earthrise'' toys, Megatron comes with an exclusive piece of a clip-and-save of a larger star map, along with a translucent red decoder. Megatron's piece of the map, aptly, is the labeled location of "[[Cybertron (planet)|CYBERTRON]]".

:The [[energon mace]] accessory was sold separately as part of the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' [[Centurion droid#Toys|Deluxe Centurion Drone]] set above. The mace is intended for ''Earthrise'' Megatron's newly molded hands, so keep caution for a breakage risk if used on ''Siege'' Megatron.

:"Combat Megatron", a ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' add-on to ''Siege'', is a redeco and new head retool of the above Voyager Class mold in the arctic camouflage deco of the unreleased ''Generation 2'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#CombatHero|Combat Hero figure]]. The figure's new head is based on Megatron's initial "miner" appearance in [[IDW Publishing]]'s ''[[The Transformers: Megatron Origin|Megatron Origin]]'', drawing most heavily on [[Marcelo Matere]]'s covers for the series. (Coincidentally or not, the [[#TFSS|last Megatron toy]] based on the same unreleased deco ''also'' used tooling based on IDW Megatron's mining days.)

:Announced at New York [[Toy Fair 2019]], this Megatron was an exclusive debuted at the regular Voyager price through the [[Hasbro Pulse]] website in the U.S. market. Combat Megatron comes in a mostly plain cardboard box with black spray-paint deco in the form of a drippy Autobot symbol, "WAR" spelled out in Cybertronian, and the "War for Cybertron Trilogy" nameplate. While the instructions replaced the ID number and Megatron's name with "Combat Megatron", the CGI renders still depict the original head. Also included is a thank you letter from Hasbro's [[John Warden]].

:Despite being the third ''Generations Selects'' figure to be announced, Combat Megatron came out ahead of [[Ricochet (Headmasters)#Generations|Ricochet]] and [[Swoop (G1)/toys#POTPGS|Red Swoop]].

:This toy was repurposed as [[White Megatron]] in ''[[Generations Selects Special Comic]]''.

:''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' Super Megatron is an extensive retool of [[Galvatron (G1)/toys#Titans Return|''Titans Return'' Voyager Class Galvatron]], with the Titan Master gimmick being removed. The figure is based upon illustrations by [[Ban Magami]] for [[:File:SuperAndUltraMegatron.jpg|Super Megatron and Ultra Megatron]] from ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: The Battlestars (story page)|The Battlestars]]'' story pages, and is capable of assuming the two robot modes and two alternate modes featured therein; the figure is very faithful to the much older art because Magami created the character designs with a working transformation in mind.<ref>[https://tfsource.com/blog/2020/04/03/countdown-answering-5-big-questions-about-the-generations-selects-super-megatron/ COUNTDOWN: Answering 5 big questions about the Generations Selects Super Megatron at TFSource]</ref> Although not officially a part of the [[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|''War for Cybertron'']] toyline, he has a grand total of 19(!) [[5 mm post|5 mm ports]] distributed throughout his new tooling, making him more than compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]].

:Being faithful to the illustrations it is based upon, the figure has both a "Super Jet Mode" and a triple-barreled "Ultra Tank Mode". The figure comes with his signature fusion cannon, which forms the nose of his gunship mode and the turret of his tank mode. He also has a triple-barreled cannon, which is stored inside the fusion cannon, and can be accessed by unfolding the front of the cannon and opening it up from the bottom. The triple-barreled cannon is detachable from the fusion cannon, and can be wielded by Super Megatron as a handheld weapon if you so choose.

:As mentioned before, the figure also has two robot modes to represent Super Megatron and his upgraded '''Ultra Megatron''' form, which differ in forehead and chest detailing. In service to this, Super Megatron's forehead and chest can be swapped around between his two robot modes. The two robot modes are also distinguished by weapon configuration (the fusion cannon being closed for Super Megatron and open for Ultra Megatron, and Ultra Megatron also featuring the triple-barrelled cannon mounted on his right shoulder) and gunship mode wing arrangement (folded for Super Megatron and unfolded for Ultra Megatron).

:Original to the figure and its [[Super Megatron comic 2|accompanying fiction]], a third robot mode was also designed and given the name '''Ultra Megatron Omega''', formed by taking the figure in its Ultra Megatron robot mode and swapping its face out for a more monstrous one. This new face appears to be an amalgam taking cues from both his [[Megatron (Movie)|live-action film counterpart]]'s mask in ''The Last Knight'', as well as the face of [[Dark Nova]]. If one so wishes, he can take the [[Silver Matrix]] accessory included with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#Selects|''Generations Selects'' Star Convoy]] and plug it into this figure's left shoulder to replicate [[:File:Ultra Megatron Omega Selects.jpg|his initial appearance]] upon transforming into this form.

:The ''Selects'' [[God Neptune comic 2|Special Comic promoting God Neptune]] further introduces a ''fourth'' robot mode, '''[[:File:Megatron Omega Perfect Selects.jpg|Megatron Omega: Perfect Form]]''', into which the figure can also be configured. To achieve this, his shoulder pads must be folded back, with the smaller wing pieces angled up at a 45° angle; his chest piece with the insignia, folded forward to partially reveal the tread details; his back wings folded down at a 45° angle; and his Fusion Cannon/triple-barreled cannon should be in tank mode configuration, tabbed into the port on his upper-back, with the triple-barrels facing straight up. His Fusion Cannon barrel halves should then be angled up at 45° angles, to create an "X-wing" shape behind him.

:The aforementioned God Neptune chapter also depicts a third alternate mode for Ultra Megatron Omega, an "[[:File:GS-Ultra-Megatron-Omega-SF-Gun-Turret--Mode.jpg|SF Gun Turret Mode]]". To achieve this mode, Megatron must first be placed into his Super Jet Mode, from there the subsequent steps can be taken in any order. With his waist kept in the same configuration, his legs must be rotated at the thigh, then folded up alongside his torso; his arms must be folded straight down, with the forearms folded forward, so that the figure is now resting on both them and the tank treads on his legs; the chestplate must then be lowered slightly, so that the treads touch the ground; his larger wings should be folded up into the tank mode configuration; and his smaller wings should be folded straight back.

:A feature not mentioned in the instructions is that the lower part of his helmet is attached via a [[C joint]] on the neck, and can be removed to allow easier access to the forehead and face-swapping gimmick. This is particularly helpful, as otherwise there isn't much clearance for it to turn, and the swivel is fairly tight.

:Contrary to popular belief, this figure ''is'' in scale with ''Selects'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#Generations Selects|Star Convoy]].

:This toy was released exclusively through [[TakaraTomy Mall]] in Japan and an EB Games exclusive in Australia.

:''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' Core Class Megatron is a Legends-sized toy that can interact with Titan Class figures. He takes many cues from his larger ''Earthrise'' toy sculpt-wise, with similar robot and Earth-based tank forms... save for the head, which seems to be based on his ''Masterpiece'' figure. His tank mode lacks any kind of rolling wheels.

:Megatron features his trademark Fusion Cannon, attached with a mushroom joint. He includes a blaster resembling his original pistol alternate mode which forms his (rather unconvincing) tank mode's barrel and has a stacked peg with 3-millimeter and 5-millimeter portions for compatibility with other Core figures as well as larger size classes. As shown in the instructions, but not specifically pointed out as such, the gun can plug into his back to replicate the gun barrel from the G1 figure. Due to the right forearm needing two pieces for the transformation, Megatron ends up having two asymmetrical forearm parts.

:Megatron suffers from a mildly annoying issue regarding his shoulder joints; the hook tabs can barely lock into place, and they can be dislodged if his arms are bent back in robot mode. Fortunately, the shoulder ball-and-socket joints are loose enough (though not to a greater extent) to counter this.

:The tenth figure released in the ''[[Transformers Collaborative|Collaborative]]'' line, "Megatron H.I.S.S. Tank" transforms from an almost 100% accurate [[Cobra]] signature original [[H.I.S.S. tank|H.I.S.S. tank]] into a roughly Commander Class-sized Megatron. He comes with his traditional fusion cannon accessory and has a swiveling twin turret backpack, whose guns can be lowered down to tilt over Megatron's head or turn left or right. Both turret guns are attached via 5mm pegs and features pegs for [[Fire Blast effect|fire blast effects]]. Megatron's fusion cannon can either mount atop his H.I.S.S. form's turret platform or on the outside of either fist.

:His hips are ratchet joints, but the rest are all simple friction joints, including his lateral thigh swivels, which when combined with the weight of half the vehicle mode hanging off his back means that he's prone to tipping over in certain poses. Megatron's sizeable heel spurs do a lot to alleviate the problem, thankfully. The back plating and rear guard of the H.I.S.S. detaches to form a shield. The back of his fusion cannon is severely truncated to clear the H.I.S.S. parts on his shoulders or the turret gunner in vehicle mode, which looks more than a little silly. Said cannon and shield both attach via fairly shallow 5mm pegs. Due to packaging constraints, most of the H.I.S.S. tank is detached from Megatron in the box, with only the treads and lower part of the cockpit built into the main figure. Megatron is also a considerably warmer gray than depicted in his stock renders.

:The set also includes a new recreated original 3.75" [[Baroness]] figure, with recreations of her accessories as well as a battle stand, who can ride in Megatron's H.I.S.S. mode cockpit or man his turret guns. Rather impressively, Megatron can be transformed entirely without removing the figure from the turret, though the same can't be said for the one in the cockpit.

:Although originally set to release in January 2023, Megatron and The Baroness were spotted at a [[Toys"R"Us]] in [[Taiwan]] in late [[June]] 2022 and was released more widely via online outlets starting in [[October]] of that year.

:This toy also doubles as the independent ''[[Transformers Roleplaying Game]]'' character [[Fusion (RPG)|Fusion]].

: Revealed during the [[May 16]]th, 2023 Transformers Fanstream, ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy: Evolution]]'' "Miner Megatron" is a retool of the ''Siege'' mold to match his younger appearance in the [[2005 IDW continuity]], with a new chest, shoulders, hazard stripes and an [[Alex Milne]]-inspired head. Oddly, this newly molded head is a completely different mold from the ''Generations Selects'' Combat Megatron toy's head, which was also inspired by Megatron's miner design. While his helmet has details from ''[[The Transformers: Megatron Origin|Megatron Origin]]'', the color scheme and molding changes reference his appearance in ''[[Chaos Theory Part 1|Chaos Theory]]'' and ''[[The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More than Meets the Eye]]''. He includes a new pickaxe, drill, and drill mount rather than his fusion cannon and sword. He is capable of attaching the pickaxe head between the drill and mount to create a crossbow-like weapon through Evo-Fusion.

: Some copies of the figure have been reported to have their inner knee joints misassembled—the circular detail above the screw should be towards the back instead of the front. One way to remedy this is to unscrew the knees, pop the pin in the thigh and swap the knee joint. This also has been reported to (somewhat) improve the joint's looseness.<ref>[https://twitter.com/shihshihming1/status/1677047933429239808 @ShihShihMing1's tweet showcasing the issue], 6 July 2023</ref>

: Amazon mistakenly mixed up the product IDs for the Rise of Tyranny and Humble Origins two-packs; as a result, customers who pre-ordered this set were actually sent [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#HumbleOrigins|Data Clerk Orion Pax]] and [[Shockwave (G1)/toys#HumbleOrigins|Senator Shockwave]].

:Released as part of the final wave of 2025 ''[[Studio Series]]'' Leader Class figures, Megatron stands the same size as the line's Commander Class [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#Studio Series|Optimus Prime]]. He transforms into his [[For safety reasons|by-now-expected]] tank mode similar to his ''[[Transformers: Devastation|Devastation]]'' counterpart, but with an unprecedentedly "clean" transformation that hides the tank treads fully inside the robot legs, leaving no backpack at all. The tank mode is based on the unproduced {{w|M8 Armored Gun System}} from (appropriately enough) the 1980s. In addition to his two-piece tank barrel, which splits into his signature fusion cannon and back-mounted barrel, Megatron comes with the energy sword he used in his duel with Prime in the film, as well as a blaster resembling his classic gun mode (but without the stock).

: ''[[Transformers: Cyberworld (toyline)#Larger_toy|Cyberworld]]'' Scorponok is the largest figure in the range, transforming from 14-inch tall robot to robotic scorpion in 4 steps. As a larger Cyberworld toy, he has a bunch of features designed to interact with smaller Cyberworld figures -his stinger can combine with his removable arms or sword to form a hover-bike, his left claw can grab and hold figures, his shoulder guns can become turret emplacements which smaller figures can man, and his chest can open up to seat toys as a battle platform. He also has a variety of lights and sounds that you can trigger by pressing in his head, which change depending on the mode. He even plays the classic transformation sound during transformation!

: The ports used to attach his claw and buzzsaw are compatible with [[Grimlock (Cyberworld)#ChompBattle|Grimlock's]] arms, so you can give him a ''T. rex'' head if you really want.

Onyx Prime

{{faction|onyxprime}}

{{disambigm|Onyx (disambiguation)|Artemis (disambiguation)}}
[[Image:10OnyxPrime.jpg|thumb|400px|Move over, [[Predaking (Prime)|Predaking]]!]]

Of the [[Thirteen]], '''Onyx Prime''', the "Lord of Beasts", is the most spiritually-minded of their number, in tune with both the creatures of the natural world and the intangible realm of the spirit. He alone has the ability to properly use the three-faced [[Triptych Mask]] given to him by Primus; this artifact allows him to cast his spirit across vast distances to commune with the dreams of far-off beings, or even track the journey of a [[Spark]] across the [[Transformer afterlife|afterlife]]. Though some view these strange mental voyages across distant realms as mere flights of fancy, Onyx and his visions make him one of the most inspirational Primes.

Onyx Prime's spiritual aptitude allowed him to cultivate an inscrutable presence that made him appear mysterious and slightly intimidating at the best of times, even to the other members of the Thirteen. In spite of his powers, Onyx Prime is a kind-hearted and friendly individual at [[Spark]], a trait that made him one of the most liked members of the Thirteen. Indeed, all of his siblings treated him as a fiercely loyal companion and a steadfast confidant—[[Micronus Prime]], in particular, once regarded Onyx as his closest friend. As the first Transformer to possess a [[beast mode]], those Transformers who revere him as the greatest of the Primes tend to eschew the vehicular [[alternate mode]]s of other Transformers, preferring to wear the animalistic forms exemplified by their spiritual progenitor.

==Fiction==
===Aligned continuity family===
====''The Covenant of Primus''====
[[File:COP-WellOfAllSparks.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.66]]

Onyx Prime was the eighth member of the [[Thirteen]] produced by [[Primus]], to serve as his children and warriors against his opposite, [[Unicron]]. As one of the mid-level Thirteen spawned between the opposing warriors [[Prima]] and [[The Fallen|Megatronus]], Onyx Prime had a more balanced and elemental quality. He was a fierce warrior and fought valiantly in the battle with Unicron, but also had a spiritual side that intrigued some of his fellows while flummoxing others. He was very close to [[Solus Prime]] (often to Megatronus's chagrin) and was perhaps best friends with [[Micronus Prime]].

The death of Solus Prime hit Onyx harder than any other member of the Primes. It was Onyx who discovered her body in her workshop, and the cry he let loose chilled [[Alpha Trion]] to his very oil. He had to be physically restrained by [[Vector Prime]]'s power after finding Solus, and held in that position to prevent him from seeking vengeance on Megatronus himself. When the division between Megatronus and [[Liege Maximo]] came to a head, all the remained Thirteen warred with one another in a battle lust that was divorced from all possible reason. When they regained their senses, the Thirteen found Maximo dead and Onyx Prime gravely injured.

As Megatronus declared himself "The Fallen" forevermore and exiled himself from Cybertron, the Thirteen questioned what to do next. Solus Prime's body had melted down to the core of Cybertron, creating a font of life that could potentially produce new Cybertronians. As his dying act, Onyx Prime volunteered to catalyze the process, journeying down into this [[Well of All Sparks]] with the power of his Triptych Mask reorganizing the thirteen patterns of the Thirteen into an endless variety of new Cybertronians. They believed the power of Primus would preserve Onyx Prime at the core forevermore, keeping him from the death awaiting his injuries. [[Quintus Prime]], [[Maccadam|Alchemist Prime]], and [[Amalgamous Prime]] each contributed some of their power and skills to this experiment as well, ensuring its success. In the end, [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] and Micronus Prime chose to journey down into the Well with Onyx. Optimus intended to be reincarnated among the new sparks, allowing him to live among them and learn from them. Micronus could not bear to be parted from Onyx, and chose to exile himself to the core with his mortally wounded friend as well.

The experiment was a success, and the Well of All Sparks soon erupted with an endless array of new lifeforms, brought into existence by Onyx Prime and the power of his brothers and sisters. The [[Predacon (Prime)|Predacon]]s of the [[Age of Evolution]] certainly drew strongly from Onyx's pattern, as did the other beastformers that followed in their wake over time. {{storylink|Transformers: The Covenant of Primus|The Covenant of Primus}}

According to legend, at the beginning of time, [[Unicron]] and [[Primus]] battled each other for eons, with neither side remaining victorious for long until Primus created the [[Thirteen]]. These Thirteen defeated Unicron and cast him into space. {{storylink|One Shall Rise, Part 1}}

In the barbarian age after the departure of the [[Knights of Cybertron]], '''Onyx''' led a flock of wayward and mistreated [[beast mode]] Cybertronians as they scoured the wastelands for usable [[energon]]. One day, the group came across the time-lost [[Shockwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Shockwave]], transported twelve million years into the past as a result of the destruction of his [[chronal drive]]. The kindly Onyx offered the damaged Shockwave some of their energon and introduced himself; realizing the crucial role that Onyx would play in Cybertron's history, Shockwave took him up on his offer... ''after'' killing him and seizing control of his herd. {{storylink|The Falling, Interlude: The First Who Was Named|The First Who Was Named}}

Disguising himself as "Onyx ''Prime''", Shockwave used his future knowledge to steer history along its preordained course—and, along the way, deliberately established many of the myths and legends that would shape the beliefs of future Cybertronians, including the "[[Dark Cybertron (prophecy)|Dark Cybertron]]" prophecy that his younger self would one day attempt to bring about. {{storylink|The Falling, Chapter 4: The Hallowing|The Hallowing}} After shaping one of the real Onyx's followers into "[[The Fallen|Megatronus]]", "Onyx Prime" engineered the unification of the [[Thirteen]], {{storylink|Origin Myths}} then manipulated both Megatronus and [[Liege Maximo]] into starting the [[First Cybertronian Civil War]] that ended the reign of the Primes. {{storylink|The Falling, Interlude: The First Who Was Named|The First Who Was Named}} "Onyx Prime" and his [[Maximal]] followers left Cybertron and relocated to the dead planet of [[Antilla]] as part of Shockwave's long game—after excavating the [[Talisman (G1)|Talisman]] that had been created on the planet, "Onyx" sent it to [[Earth]] aboard the starship ''[[Axalon (BW)|Axalon]]'', {{storylink|Strange Visitors}} where it remained for thousands of years until the [[Iron Ring]] brought it to Cybertron as part of their failed invasion. {{storylink|First Strike issue 6|First Strike #6}} In the meantime, "Onyx" continued his various manipulations, which included attacking a [[Parvus Oppidum|village]] on [[Caminus]], {{storylink|Ghost Stories}} and sending [[Sovereign|a scout]] to Earth to search for the [[Enigma of Combination]]. {{storylink|White Light}}

In [[2018]], "Onyx Prime" returned to Cybertron to finally enact his ultimate plan: using the corrosive [[magic]]al energies of the Talisman, he would sacrifice Cybertron itself to [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]], rationalizing that with their homeworld destroyed he could unite what remained of the Cybertronian species under his own banner. {{storylink|The Falling, Chapter 6: Unforgivable|Unforgivable}} Although "Onyx Prime" initially presented himself as a benevolent figure, [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Optimus Prime]] and the [[Council of Worlds]] soon realized something was amiss—shortly after his manipulations led to the death of [[Alpha Trion]], "Onyx" was unmasked as Shockwave, who proceeded to explain the role he'd played in history to the bewildered Optimus before throwing him into [[infraspace]]. {{storylink|The Falling, Interlude: The First Who Was Named|The First Who Was Named}}

==Notes==
[[File:OnyxPrime cop idw infographic.jpg|thumb|right|200px]]
* Like other members of the Thirteen, Onyx Prime was once as a [[multiversal singularity]] who existed as one being across all space and time, but that is [[Shroud|no longer the case]].
* The artwork of Onyx Prime in the ''Covenant of Primus'' (at the top of this article) is a little hard to decipher, which for a while led many fans to believe that he had been drawn incorrectly in IDW's comics. Onyx was originally conceived as a centaur, as can clearly (if briefly) be glimpsed in his ''Prime'' cartoon appearance. However, the ''Covenant'' artwork depicts him rearing up on his hind legs, obfuscating his forelegs and supposedly leading several IDW artists to misinterpret his design, either mis-drawing his forelegs or omitting them entirely, thereby drawing him as a normal two-legged 'bot. [[The Falling, Interlude: The First Who Was Named|''Optimus Prime'' #18]] turned this into a subtle piece of foreshadowing: the ''real'' Onyx was a quadruped, but his natural stance was the one thing that the bipedal Shockwave could not replicate while impersonating him. In the years since, subsequent depictions of Onyx Prime—including ''[[Transformers: Cyberverse (cartoon)|Cyberverse]]'', ''[[Transformers One (film)|One]]'', and an apparent cameo in ''[[Transformers: EarthSpark (cartoon)|EarthSpark]]''—have shifted over to depicting him as a biped. His ''[[Transformers: Age of the Primes|Age of the Primes]]'' toy splits the difference, and gives him both a bipedal robot mode and a centaur robot mode.

**''Accessories:'' Blaster rifle
{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (Hasbro), [[Hisashi Yuki]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Based on his appearance in ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (franchise)|War for Cybertron]]'', ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' Optimus Prime transforms from a red, blue, and silver robot into an "armored truck mode." He comes with a hand-held rifle that is held via either of its two [[5 mm post]]s, and can fold up to store in either mode. He features additional 5mm ports on his forearms, roof, and front-wheel panels. Optimus has a stylized sculpted Autobot insignia on his back, as seen in the game, but it is obscured by [[kibble]].

: An undocumented transformation step includes flipping Optimus Prime's knees out in vehicle mode to form a back bumper with tail lights. Oddly, the toy itself and the [[package art]] show Optimus Prime with four fingers on each hand, while he has 5 fingers in the video game. The vehicle mode pictured on the stock photos is minimally mis-transformed: The exhaust pipes have not been rotated to hide the indentations against the vehicle body. The instructions show the rifle being plugged in by its shorter peg, but the packaging depicts the rifle stored by its grip, which keeps the weapon higher off Prime's body, but is also more secure.

:Optimus Prime is part of the first wave of ''Generations'' Deluxe Class toys, but he and Cybertronian [[Bumblebee (WFC)/toys#Generations|Bumblebee]] shipped ahead of their two other wavemates via [[Toys"R"Us]].

**''Accessories'': "Ion cannon"

: Part of the first wave of [[2012]] ''Generations'' Deluxe Class toys, Optimus Prime is based on his ''[[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' design, and transforms from a robot to a Cybertronian truck and back. His ion cannon, based on a weapon seen in his concept art, can mount via either of its two 5 mm posts onto ports on his hands, forearms, back, and shoulder smokestacks. The toy is known for being oddly small for an Optimus Prime toy, especially when compared to other toys from the same line. This allows him to be more or less in scale with [[Grimlock (WFC)|Grimlock]] and [[Bruticus (WFC)|Bruticus]] (likewise from the same line), however. Optimus features sculpted fake wheels on his back.

:The [[TakaraTomy]] version, part of the first wave of Japanese ''Generations'' toys, is noticeably shinier, casting his red and blue plastics in different, metallic shades, having much darker gray and black plastics, coating much of his red plastic in glossy metallic paint, and featuring numerous additional [[Paint operation|paint highlights]], among other deco changes.

: ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#First Edition (2011)|Prime: First Edition]]'' Matrix of Leadership Optimus Prime converts from [[robot mode]] to his [[alternate mode|truck mode]]. He comes with a gun than he can wield with his hands, as well as peg onto his hitch in vehicle mode, with different pegs for either configuration. Similar to [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Voyager Class toys 4|a previous Optimus Prime toy]], he features some [[Kibble#.22Faux-parts.22|faux-kibble]] in the form of his actual windshield chest being covered by sculpted panels featuring his characteristic windshield-chest. His arms are slightly longer than his original design's arms.

:This figure is an [[exclusive]] to [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2011. The toy comes in a packaging shaped like the [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Prime|Matrix of Leadership]], which one could wear around their neck, preferably at the convention itself, so passers-by can exclaim "WHERE THE HELL DID YOU GET THAT?" and then try to get one themselves. The Matrix itself comes packaged in a [[Packaging|box]] that is designed to look like Optimus Prime's chest, and opens accordingly. The chest window doors are sealed with a round magnet.

[[File:PrimeFEtoy-SDCCpackaging.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66|Step 1: Put Optimus Prime toy inside a wearable Matrix. Step 2: ??? Step 3: Profit!]]

: The toy itself is an early release of the Deluxe Class Optimus Prime toy from the later "Entertainment Pack" set (see below).

*'''Optimus Prime vs Megatron: A Rivalry Reborn''' (Entertainment Pack, 2011)
**''Accessories:'' Gun
{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro)}}

: Entertainment Pack Optimus Prime is a slight redeco of the SDCC figure, with some deco differences between the SDCC release; this version has blue on the faux windows instead of gray and some of the added silver deco on the roof/feet, as well as the yellow paint on his lights. His midriff is also darker. Optimus also comes with a similarly-scaled [[Megatron (WFC)/toys#EntertainmentPack|Megatron]] and PVC figurines of [[Jack Darby#EntertainmentPack|Jack Darby]], [[Miko Nakadai#EntertainmentPack|Miko Nakadai]], and [[Raf Esquivel#EntertainmentPack|Raf Esquivel]].

: Initial distribution of this set was... spotty at best, with most of the stock going to Canada. However, [[Toys"R"Us]] picked up this set, along with most of the "First Edition" line, as part of a ''huge'' block of US market [[exclusive]]s for holiday season 2012.

[[File:TF-Prime-First-Edition-Voyager-Optimus-Prime-(Second-Run).jpg|left|upright=1|thumb|''(Second run pictured)'']]
: Part of the first wave of ''Prime: First Edition'' Voyager-Class toys, Optimus Prime transforms into a truck, with a similar (but more complex) transformation to his previous Deluxe-Class toy, and features a faux-kibble window-chest panel as well as a detailed truck cab interior. He comes with a "Cybertronian battle sword" and a "plasma cannon", either of which can peg into his hands. The cannon also features a 5mm peg-hole on the underside of its barrel, allowing the sword (or any other compatible accessory) to mount there as a bayonet. They are stored in vehicle mode by pegging them onto either the 5mm-compatible trailer hitch or onto each peg-hole beside it, although the [[instructions]] tell [[you]] to peg the sword facing forwards onto the hitch, with the cannon mounting backwards onto one of the side pegs. His trailer hitch ends up on his right robot leg, and he has a fake, sculpted, equally-usable trailer hitch on his left leg. He features a cardboard stand as with all "First Edition" toys, but the weak adhesive used for its flaps means it often has trouble supporting the weight of a Voyager class figure for an extended amount of time, the top caving in as the glue gives way. As Optimus only comes with one plasma cannon and the battle sword, one can buy an extra copy for another.

: He is minimally mistransformed in-package and in the [[Stock photography|stock photo]], as his shoulder guards aren't flipped open. His stock photography also shows his plasma cannon as being solid black, when the final cannon is black speckled with silver paint, with slightly more painted silver details on the tips of the barrels.

:The Japanese release of this figure features slightly different colors for greater [[show-accuracy]], including darker reds and blues, and a more metallic silver plastic.

:Optimus Prime also had a slight assembly problem between the head and the neck's ball joint, which causes it to pop off with some movement. This can be fixed by unscrewing the head halves, then properly snap it back before reattaching. This fix also adds some additional head articulation. Though the instructions tell you to rotate the hands while transforming into vehicle mode, this may result in a very slight gap on the front hood panels. Leaving the hands untransformed can thoroughly shut the gaps.

: The First Edition Voyagers were never released in the US, forcing buyers to import him from Canada or Japan... at first. [[Toys"R"Us]] later picked up this toy, along with most of the "First Edition" line, as part of a ''huge'' block of US market [[exclusive]]s for holiday season 2012. This second run introduced a [[Variant#Colors and deco|deco variant]], in which the red paint on, beside, and below the truck side windows is omitted, revealing the patch of brown plastic underneath. As he is packaged in robot mode, with his front wheels and shoulders covering said patch, the only way to identify which version is which while in the box is by looking at the hinge joints beside his two painted torso lights, with the center portions of the hinges being unpainted brown on the variant. All releases of this mold also have a minor issue with the truck mode windvane/robot mode heels refusing to connect solidly to the truck cab in vehicle mode, leaving a visible gap above Prime's windshield.

: Anyone looking to buy this figure on the aftermarket be aware, there is a premium [[IP theft|knock-off]] that's been making the rounds since October 2019.

**''Japanese release date:'' '''[[March 31]], 2012'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''EZ-01'''

{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (Hasbro)}}

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)|Prime]]'' [[Cyberverse (toyline)#Series 2|Series 2 ''Cyberverse'']] Commander Class toys, Optimus Prime is a smaller-scale toy, and features translucent plastic for his torso so that the toy can be illuminated using the electronic lights featured in the larger playsets. He comes with two translucent "battle cannon" weapons which feature multiple [[C joint|3mm posts and port]]s, allowing them to be held by his hands, or store/mount onto numerous ports on his person. Additionally, he features a 5mm port for a trailer hitch.

:The Hasbro release comes with a pack-in file card. In addition to the regular version, Optimus was also released in a special "advance release" assortment alongside [[Bulkhead (Prime)#Cyberverse|Bulkhead]], [[Megatron (WFC)/toys#Cyberverse|Megatron]] and [[Starscream (WFC)#Cyberverse|Starscream]], with each figure including a mini-DVD that contains the ''[[Transformers: Prime (cartoon)|Transformers: Prime]]'' episode "[[Masters & Students]]". Yes, all four of them come with the same episode.

:Like many other modern toys, Optimus was designed with an alternate head sculpt (based on the [[mouthplate]]-less face as seen on the show) intended for a later retool, which was [[gang-molding|gang-molded]] with the original head. At least one specimen sporting the mouthplate-less head has been found at retail, although since this occurrence has seemingly been limited to an isolated incident, it can be assumed to be a [[quality control|manufacturing error]] rather than a genuine [[variant]].<ref name="cvvari">[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-prime-39/cyberverse-optimus-prime-unmasked-variant-174184/ TFW2005 reporting] on the head sculpt "variant" for Cyberverse Commander Class Optimus Prime.</ref> The mouthplate-less head sculpt ''was'' eventually used officially for a later-[[wave]] redeco, Nightwatch Optimus Prime (see below).

:Take note that the leg construction (thigh parts with legs consists of rear wheels/fifth wheel hitch & engine compartment/flip out legs combination) can become loose after a long time of play due to being used with transformation. Also, the legs did not seem to securely connect due to the hitch's shallow holes & the front half of the legs' small pegs. Also, attaching weapons with 3mm posts on the Battle Cannons' holes can cause some stress marks.

:This sculpt was later retooled to make ''Beast Hunters Cyberverse'' [[Ultra Magnus (WFC)#BHCyberverse|Ultra Magnus]].

{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (Hasbro)}}

: Part of the third wave of ''Prime Cyberverse'' Commander Class toys, Nightwatch Optimus Prime is a redeco of Series 2 ''Cyberverse'' Optimus Prime, using the faceplate-less head sculpt that is [[gang-molding|gang-molded]] with the original head. His blue plastic is now gray, his smokestacks and thighs are left unpainted, he loses the Autobot insignia on his right forearm/door, and he gains yellow paint highlights for his eyes and lights, along with various other minor deco differences. Instead of the original release's cannons, he now comes with a pair of swords, which each have a pair of 3mm posts for wielding/mounting.

*'''Autobot Set''' (EZ Collection 6-pack, [[November 24]], 2012)
**''ID number'': '''EZ-SP1'''
**''Accessories'': 2 "battle cannons"

: This redeco of Optimus Prime uses the faceplate-less version of the mold's head and replaces his red plastic with a metallic shade. Apart from this, the metallic red paint on the side cabins/backpack & the front windows/chest does not match with the metallic red plastic. The entirety of the dark gray unpaintable plastic is also replaced with a lighter shade, which also resulted in the tires being cast in the same shade.

:He was only available in a TakaraTomy ''[[EZ Collection]]'' six-pack with [[Bumblebee (WFC)/toys#EZ6pack|Bumblebee]], [[Ratchet (WFC)#EZ6pack|Ratchet]], [[Bulkhead (Prime)#EZ6pack|Bulkhead]], [[Arcee (WFC)#EZ6pack|Arcee]], and [[Wheeljack (Prime)#EZ6pack|Wheeljack]]. Optimus is slightly mis-transformed in-package, probably to fit in the plastic tray. The stock photos still depict his tires being black.

{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (Hasbro)}}

: Part of the first wave of ''Prime: [[Beast Hunters (toyline)|Beast Hunters]]'' [[Cyberverse (toyline)#Series 3|Series 3 ''Cyberverse'']] Commander Class toys, Optimus Prime is an all-new mold. He now transforms into a monstrous, flat-nosed truck with spiky fenders at the front and a cage compartment at the back, and comes with the Thunder Lance and Star Saber. Each of the weapons features two differently-placed 3mm posts, allowing them to be held by his hands, or mount onto two ports on the rear vehicle sides, as well as allowing the lance to additionally be used as a pressure-fired missile launcher.

: Undocumented in the instructions, Optimus Prime's front fenders can flip up or down. Probably due to the very small eye holes or a rare case of paint error; All of the copies had the bright metallic blue paint applied onto his lower eye sockets as well. This is present to all of the redecoes below. Likewise, a sculpting/molding issue is present to ''all'' releases of this mold: The lower section of his faceplate is ''slightly'' lopsided.

He comes in a two-pack with a purple and black redeco of Commander Class [[Predaking (Prime)#Target2pack|Predaking]].

: Like all ''Predacons Rising'' releases, the Optimus Prime/Predaking two-pack was [[exclusive]] to [[Target]] stores in the United States and Canada and to [[Tesco]] stores in the UK, and is also supposed to be exclusive to Carrefour elsewhere in Europe (presumably in France and/or Spain, though there have been no sightings as of yet). It has also been found at Rossmann drug stores in Germany and Ripley stores in Chile and popped up at BigW stores in Australia ''much'' later, in mid-2014.

: A Bic Camera and Joshin Kids Land exclusive, this redeco is the first release of the ''Prime: First Edition'' Deluxe class Optimus Prime figure in Japan, in desaturated hues of plastic (the [[stock photography]] provided by TakaraTomy showed Orion Pax's red plastic as more pink than its original toy, this seems to have been a trick of the lighting or a photoshop). He has fewer paint applications than other iterations of the toy, instead utilizing customer-applied foil stickers, including both Autobot and Decepticon insignias of varying sizes.

: While he retains the blaster-cannon accessory, instead of his normal sword, he comes with a gold vac-metal version of the [[Arms Micron]] [[R.A.#Orion|R.A.]], who originally came with [[Ratchet (WFC)/toys#Robots in Disguise|Ratchet]].

{{toydesigner|[[Takashi Kunihiro]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#Robots in Disguise (2012)|Prime: Robots in Disguise]]'' Voyager Class toys, Optimus Prime is a smaller, slightly more [[Articulation|articulated]] mold, and is the first mainline ''Prime'' Optimus Prime figure released ''not'' to have fake windshield windows on his chest, though they're upside-down relative to truck-mode.

: He now comes with a half-translucent gun which lights up and expands [[MechTech]]-style when the lever is pulled. Bizarrely, the main section of the weapon is sculpted to resemble Prime's forearm, with the unfolding part being his in-show gun. Additionally, he comes with an opaque sword resembling the [[Star Saber (Prima)|Star Saber]], which he can wield two-handed. The gun features a peg on its underside and a port on each side, while the sword features a peg and peg-hole on its hilt in addition to its 5mm handle. In robot mode, either accessory can mount on his hands, on either of his shoulders, or be pegged into either of his half-translucent forearms. In vehicle mode, the top of the vehicle mode cab can also fold back to reveal two additional peg holes, and there are three peg holes (including the fifth wheel hitch) on the back section, although the hitch tends to open up and not hold very well.

: Unlike previous Voyager Class MechTech weapons, the gun cannot be set to stay expanded. This means that Prime is forced to threaten Decepticons with a random block of parts, unless you want to use one of your hands to permanently unfold his weapon.

: As the red parts are entirely painted translucent blue, exercise some caution while transforming or posing him.

: The [[TakaraTomy]] release of Optimus Prime has considerable differences from the [[Hasbro]] release. His blue and red plastics are darker and metallic, his translucent blue plastic is darker, and a few of his [[paint operation]]s have been omitted and replaced with customer-applied foil [[sticker]]s, such as his shins, feet, headlamps, and [[insignia]]s. His legs, outer forearms and truck mode "sleeper cabin" side panels have been [[retool]]ed to include [[5 mm post]]-holes as part of the line-wide "[[Arms Micron]]" gimmick. As such, he does not come with the Hasbro version's weapons, but instead an Arms Micron partner named [[O.P.]] who transforms into a weapon resembling Optimus's in-show blaster cannon.

: AM-01 Optimus was part of a number of special Arms Micron [[campaign item|promotional giveaways]]. Between [[March 1]]st and [[March 30]]th 2012, those who pre-ordered Optimus online from through one of four different web sites ([[Amazon (website)|Amazon Japan]], [[Toys"R"Us]], Bic Camera, and Yodobashi Camera) received the bonus promotional Micron [[Firebolt (G1)#Preorder|Firebolt]] with their Prime. Meanwhile, buying him from [[AEON]] stores got customers the [[R.A.#Shadow|Shadow R.A.]] toy.

: The Hasbro version of the mold was retooled to make ''Beast Hunters'' [[Ultra Magnus (WFC)#Beast Hunters|Ultra Magnus]], using the forearms of the TakaraTomy version. The Takara version of the mold was used to make ''Prime'' [[Nemesis Prime (Prime)#Toys|Nemesis Prime]].

**''Accessories'': Rifle (Hasbro only), "R.A." Arms Micron & Matrix Blade (TakaraTomy only)

: Part of the first wave of ''Prime: Robots in Disguise'' Weaponizer Class toys, Optimus Prime is a large toy, similar in size to Leader Class figures from previous ''Transformers'' toylines. He features a simpler transformation and design compared to previous Leader-sized figures, with him having fake chest windows (again) and a simplified, hollow truck rear where his feet, arms, and fake chest windows are plainly visible. He comes with a blaster that can mount onto his hands, shoulder-pads, and the sides of his legs/truck rear.

: His ''main'' gimmicks, however, are the two large, blue-and-white mini-guns hidden in his back/hood, which can deploy and "weaponize" either mode. When deployed, the mini-guns swing out from his back/hood and spin, while a red LED inside his torso lights up briefly. The mini-guns swing down to the sides of his head in robot mode, and can also be deployed in vehicle mode when one manually opens the grille. Pushing down on the red lever on the center his torso (in either mode) briefly lights up the LED again and swings the mini-guns back into their hiding places.

: The Hasbro version of this mold was retooled to make ''[[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition]]'' [[Ultra Magnus (WFC)#Platinum Edition|Ultra Magnus]].

: The [[TakaraTomy]] version, part of the seventh wave of Japanese ''Prime'' toys, is dubbed '''Arms Master Optimus''', uses darker, metallic plastics, casts the backs of his thighs in metallic red, replaces his metallic silver paint with glossy gray, and replaces a few of his paint operations with customer-applied foil stickers, such as his insignias, shins, headlamps, the ''tiny'' yellow lights on his torso, and the blue deco on his truck panel sides. He has also been retooled with additional [[5 mm post]]s for his thighs, roof, and lower backpack, as well as ports for his forearms, shoulders, smokestacks, fuel tanks, and roof. Instead of the rifle, he comes with a very large [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#ArmsMaster|Matrix]] which can tab onto his chest as armor or mount onto the back of the truck cab, with the Matrix also being covered in 5 mm posts and holes so that Arms Microns can be attached to it. He additionally comes with a clear-blue "Shining" version of the Arms Micron, [[R.A.#ArmsMaster|R.A.]], who can combine with the Matrix to form the colossal [[Star Saber (Prima)#ArmsMaster|Matrix Saber]].

: Arms Master Optimus was central to a number of [[campaign item|promotional giveaways]]. A larger version of the cardboard trailer unit that came with [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#BattleShield|Battle Shield Optimus Prime]] was given away to customers who bought him at Yodobashi Camera and Bic Camera stores. Purchasing him from [[AEON]] stores got you a ''second'' version of R.A., [[R.A.#ShiningGR|Shining R.A. GR]]. Then in mid-November, AEON had a second promotion for the toy, this time offering the [[Gura#Shining|Shining Gura B]] Arms Micron.

**''Accessories:'' Two "Ionic Pulse Launchers"/"Eaglefire Missile Launchers", two missiles, [[Star Saber (Prima)#BHVoyager|Star Saber]]

: Part of the first wave of ''Prime: Beast Hunters'' Voyager Class toys, Optimus Prime transforms into a monstrous, flat-nosed truck, but differs from his Cyberverse toy by having a faceplate-less mouth, and by being equipped with a large four-winged backpack in robot mode. He features a 5mm port for each of his hands, one on his backpack, one near each of his front wheels, and one on each of his two upper wings.

:He comes with the Star Saber, which has a 5mm handle and a post on its hilt, as well as two spring-loaded, missile-firing "[[Ionic Pulse Launcher]]s" (which are called "Eaglefire Missile Launchers" in the instructions). The launchers each feature a 5 mm post, have flip open prods, and can peg onto the ports near the wheels on his robot back, giving him a pair of back-mounted rocket engines.

:Some units have a waist [[Swivel joint|swivel]] that is somehow fixed in place, and is unable to rotate. His packaging stock photography also depicts translucent green missiles that are opaque light-gray in the final product. His instructions include the [[Tales of the Beast Hunters Chapter 5|fifth chapter]] of the ''[[Tales of the Beast Hunters]]'' series.

:He was redecoed into ''[[Triple Combination: Transformers Go! (toyline)|Go!]]'' Hunter Optimus Prime and ''Go!'' [[Hunter Nemesis Prime]]. This toy also served as the basis of the non-toy ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'' incarnation of [[Galvatron (BW)#Beast Wars: Uprising|Galvatron]].

**''Accessories:'' Dragon-hunting sword, dragon-hunting shield, five missiles
{{toydesigner|[[Lenny Panzica]] (Hasbro)}}

: Part of the first wave of ''Prime: Beast Hunters'' Ultimate Class toys, Beast Hunter Optimus Prime is larger than the average Weaponizer or Leader Class toy, and comes with a sword and shield which can mount via 5 mm post in various ways on his hands, forearms, and legs.

:His main [[gimmick]], however, is his quintet of "[[Firebreath Cyclocannons]]"—spring-loaded dragon-headed missile launchers mounted on an ornate, rotating circular contraption attached to his back/roof. Turning the handle on top makes the backpack rotate and cycle through each cannon, and pressing the handle's button will trigger and fire whatever cannon is at the top/front. When the cannons are cycled through in robot mode, his eyes and windshield-chest light up, and one can alternatively rotate (but not fire) the cannons and activate his light-up features by pushing down on the fake spiky fenders on his stomach. Out of the package, the handle itself comes detached to allow the rest of the toy to fit.

:His stock photography depicts his three green missiles as translucent when they are opaque in the final product. His instructions include the [[Tales of the Beast Hunters Chapter 17|seventeenth chapter]] of the ''Tales of the Beast Hunters'' series. This toy was originally announced at UK Toy Fair 2013 as "Dragon Disc Optimus Prime".

:His sword would later be reused for Unite Warriors [[Grand Scourge#Unite Warriors|Grand Scourge]]'s [[Matrix Breaker]] Sword, and [[Arcee (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Arcee]]'s [[Combiner Slayer]] from the SDCC Exclusive Combiner Hunters set.

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

: Part of the first wave of ''Beast Hunters'' Series 3 Voyager Class toys, Optimus Prime is functionally an upsized copy of his ''Beast Hunters'' Series 3 ''Cyberverse'' toy, though with certain sculpted details based on his larger toys, the replacement of his ball joints with more robust [[Ratchet (mechanism)|ratchet joint]]s, the addition of thigh [[Swivel joint|swivel]]s, and various deco differences. As a result, his complexity is lower than in his previous Voyager Class toys, but he ends up being much, ''much'' more massive.

:For accessories, he comes with (according to his bio) "the ancient weapons of the Primes", such as his Nexus Sword (a reference to [[Nexus Prime]]), the Vector Shield (an upscaled, non-transforming version of the shield from his [[#BBladeCyberverse|''Cyberverse'' "Beast Blade" toy]], and a reference to [[Vector Prime]]), as well as a generic cannon with a pressure-fired missile. All of his accessories can peg into his hands, right forearm, backside, and vehicle sides.

:The Nexus Sword is similar to the one included with the original Voyager ''Beast Hunters'' Optimus Prime toy, but is shorter and less detailed.

:Optimus Prime transforms into a red and blue semi truck of likely fictitious origin. In keeping with the simplified [[Transformation|transformation scheme]] of the Rescue Bots line, Optimus Prime transforms from truck to robot when [[Autotransformation|his legs are folded down]], at which point his head, arms, and hands emerge; folding his toes into position will finish the transformation.

:Of note is that on some samples, the head can sometimes lock into position even when the figure is in robot mode; this could be observed simply by walking into a store and seeing multiple "headless" Prime figures. This can occasionally be corrected by pushing down on the back of the panel or tapping the head, thereby releasing it.

: The large "[[Autobot Command Center]]" playset comes with a multitude of ''Prime''-based Kreons, but the set's Optimus isn't a Kreon, but a brick-built mini-vehicle based on Optimus's truck mode. The truck also features a pressure-fired net launcher, in order to catch the similarly brick-built [[Rippersnapper (Prime)#AutobotCommandCenter|Rippersnapper]] beast.

**''Kreons'': Optimus Prime, [[Underbite#Kre-O|Underbite]], [[Ped (RID)#Kre-O|Ped]]
**''Pieces'': '''189'''
**''Accessories'': Ray pistol, Jetpack, 2 missiles

:The "[[Underbite Jetpack Takedown]]" Optimus Kreon uses the new 2015 style of Kreon hips and torso, with a hollow hip-peg and a central post inside the torso for increased grip... which also makes them incompatible with about four years' worth of Kreons. Based on his appearance in ''Robots in Disguise'', he features a new version of the Optimus helmet, this time lacking a moutplate. He attaches to an included jet pack, armed with two pressure-launch missiles.

:All of the 2015 Transformers ''Kre-O'' product was skipped by retailers in the US (at first), seeing release in Canada, Australia and various Asian markets. In late 2015, much of the line was finally released at discount in the US through TJ Maxx and Marshalls stores, including this set.

**''Pieces'': '''247'''
**''Accessories'': Optimus rifle

: Optimus got his own large vehicle set, featuring a giant longnosed cab truck with space on the back to connect the included "[[Stasis pod#2015 Robots in Disguise cartoon|stasis cell]]" for transport. That "flatbed" part is rigged to be pushed forward, which pushes a large cannon forward out through the truck's front grill; pushing the cannon ''all'' the way forward automatically launches the massive rubber-tipped missile. The smokestacks are also hinged to swing down into "machinegun" mode.

: The set comes with another Optimus Kreon, plus [[Fracture (RID)#Kre-O|Fracture]] (who comes with a hoverbike vehicle) and micro-Kreon Mini-Cons [[Airazor (RID)#Kre-O|Airazor]] and [[Divebomb (RID)#Kre-O|Divebomb]].

: This set was first released in Taiwan and Singapore from January 2015, and later in Canada from May 2015. It was only released in the US in late 2015 through closeout chains like Ross and TJ Maxx.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Custom Kreon, 2015)
**''Set Number'': '''B1233 '''
**''Pieces'':'''27'''
**''Accessories'': Rack, bazooka, dual pick-axe

:Part of the sixth wave of Custom Kreons, and the first (and only) ''Robots in Disguise''-themed wave, Optimus Prime uses the new 2015 Kreon construction with the hollow waist-peg and "raised" hands.. He comes with a buildable parts rack on which to hang/store his extra pieces. Unlike the previous Custom Kreons, he no longer features a chromed helmet, and comes with an extra clear-plastic helmet, torso, legs, and his arms, plus a chromed Bazooka (originally from the Kre-O Battleship sets), and some kind of a dual pick-axe with a clear red staff.

:Despite what the instructions said, the body piece ''cannot'' be pegged down between the leg parts installed on the display stand. However this can be amended by putting a 2x1 brick piece.

:For some reason: unlike the stock photos (pictured from the right), This Custom Kreon had a slight [[Quality control|QC]] issue to the opaque and transparent helmets: One had two sides sculpted, while the other one has the small flat square sculpt (similar to the details on Hound's helmet) on the right side. Several samples had two different "variants": One with the perfect transparent helmet & a differently-sculpted opaque helmet, while the other one has the opposite. However: later releases fixes the problem by a [[Variant#running change|running change]].

: Re-packaged and re-released through budget chains like Dollar General and Family Dollar in the US, this is a seemingly-unchanged version of "Beast Blade Optimus Prime", only with the packaging and instructions omitting any mention or visuals of the kit's large robot build.

The Kreon can be displayed without adding any armor parts, of course.

: Part of the first wave of TakaraTomy's ''[[Triple Combination: Transformers Go! (toyline)|Go!]]'' toys, Hunter Optimus Prime is a redeco of the Voyager Class ''Beast Hunters'' Optimus Prime toy. His red and blue plastics are now cast in metallic shades, his translucent green plastic has been replaced with translucent blue, his yellow highlights are more orange-yellow, his yellow-painted side windows are now blue, and his gray plastic is now cast in two different, darker shades.

:*''Accessories'': 2 large swords, 2 kabuto helmets/shields
{{toydesigner|[[Hisashi Yuki]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Junichi Akutsu]] (concept artist)}}
{{picsneeded|combined modes}}

: Part of the eighth wave of ''Go!'' toys, Optimus Exprime is capable of changing from a robot to either a train or (something resembling) a [[Popular beast alternate modes#Dragons|dragon]] and back again. He can also form the torso of either DaiKenzan (with [[Kenzan]] forming the upper torso, head, and arms and [[Gekisoumaru]] forming the legs) or DaiGekisou (With Kenzan and Gekisoumaru reversed from their roles in DaiKenzan).

: While not mentioned in his instructions, the train sections which normally hang off his arms can be reversed and his dragon claws can be flipped out to give him a passable set of combat claws.

: Each of his kabuto helmets forms the head for one of the two combined modes. In addition, either of his kabuto helmets can be connected to his robot mode back (allowing his swords to also be stored on his back), and both can be connected to the rear of his train mode simultaneously. In robot mode or combined mode, his kabuto helmets can be held individually as a shield or combined into an even larger shield.

: Optimus Exprime's electronics are slightly less complex than those of Kenzan and Gekisoumaru. In robot, dragon, and train modes, pressing a button sets off red flashing LEDs and causes him to play one of seven sounds or phrases (which do not change depending on the mode). Pressing and holding the button activates a combination mode similar to the ones found in Kenzan and Gekisoumaru. Optimus Exprime calls on Kenzan and Gekisoumaru to combine with him, and then combination music plays as the LEDs flash blue, purple, and red (with the two halves of his [[Autobot]] [[insignia]] showing different colors!). Completing either combination by snapping the correct kabuto helmet into place ends the combination mode and triggers another phrase.

: Once combined, DaiKenzan has three new phrases (spoken in Kenzan's voice), while DaiGekisou has four (in Gekisoumaru's voice). In either combined form, pressing and holding the button activates an additional, longer phrase for their "final attack". DaiGekisou is armed with a scissors-esque "shuriken" made from combining Optimus Exprime's two swords, while DaiKenzan simply wields them separately.

: Unlike the other [[Swordbot]] toys, Optimus Exprime's kabuto helmets form an integral part of one of his [[alternate mode]]s. The kabuto helmet designed for use with his DaiGekisou combination forms the head of his dragon form, while the kabuto helmet designed for use with his DaiKenzan combination forms the "tail" of the same. He comes with two HUGE swords (with [[5 mm post|5mm]] handles) which can be attached to several places on his kabuto helmets or either alternate form, held separately in his hands, or held both in the same hand (with one held in reverse-grip).

: An additional oddity is that unlike every other toy in the Go! toyline, Optimus Exprime came packaged in a box without a window. This is potentially because of the sheer amount of information TakaraTomy wanted to print on the box, or because they were unable to fit him into the box in robot mode with all of his accessories displayed. Whatever the reason, it left him with a smaller box than the other voyagers in the line, a substantially-altered box layout, and a much shorter profile.

: Adorably, his robot mode feet are molded to resemble itty-bitty versions of his bullet train mode, complete with molded wheels.

: Optimus Exprime's swords were later reused for [[Bludgeon (G1)#Combiner Wars|Figure Subscription Service 4.0 Bludgeon]].

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Legion Class, 2015/2016)
: Part of the first wave of the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 toyline)|2015 ''Robots in Disguise'']] line, Optimus Prime is a smaller-scale toy. He transforms from robot to trailer/truck combination and back! Like every ''Robots in Disguise'' Legion Class toy, Optimus features 3mm posts on his hands and arms. Due to the size and simplified transformation, he ends up having 6 wheels instead of 10. His scannable Autobot insignia is on his robot mode left shoulder. However, the badge is completely impossible to scan in vehicle mode.

:[[:File:RID2015-Legion-Optimus-Prime.jpg|The prototype images]] showed that Optimus features sharp antennae on his head. This was rounded off [[for safety reasons]] in the final product.

:This mold was redecoed into [[Ultra Magnus (WFC)#Robots in Disguise (2015)|Ultra Magnus]].

:In 2016, the figure saw re-release in the ''[[Combiner Force]]'' [[subline imprint]] packaging refresh. Being the ''tenth'' use of the sculpt at this point, some instances of mold deterioration have affected the figure, including: the vehicle front's bumper (which affects the space on the head/front bumper transformation), the headlights, and/or the legs, and the hole on the left shoulder is also prone to develop a stress mark due to the right shoulder's slightly "thickened" peg. Although the re-released badge didn't seem to unlock Optimus Prime after it was scanned, a later update to the game amended this.

:Also, the ''Combiner Force'' re-release's instructions were erroneously packed with [[Heatseeker#Legion|Heatseeker]].

:His scannable Autobot insignia is on his robot mode chest/truck hood. The badge is easily scannable while in package.

:The ''Transformers Adventure'' Easy Dynamic Series release, titled "'''Big Optimus Prime'''", features extra paint details and has two additional Autobot symbols on his shoulders. He also includes a different scannable badge, which is compatible with TakaraTomy's Transformers Adventures app. Scanning this will unlock Big Optimus Prime in the collection list.

: Part of the second wave of Hasbro's ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' Warrior Class figures, Optimus Prime transforms into a futuristic trailer truck. Due to his simple transformation scheme, he has a [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|faux]] window chest in robot mode, while the end of the front trailer kibble has extra toes. Optimus Prime also comes with an axe, which was based on the Energon Axe weapon from the ''War for Cybertron'' game. Undocumented in the instructions, Prime's axe can store between his trailer, or plug into ports on either of his shoulders. His scannable Autobot insignia is on his robot mode left shoulder and is easily scannable while still in-package.

:While stock photos of the toy feature silver paint on the thigh joints, the actual product features a nearly identical shade of grey paint to match the unpaintable upper legs.

:Optimus Prime was first released as part of the second wave of the Warrior Class assortment, but despite being succeeded by the "Blizzard Strike" redeco in wave 5, which itself was later re-released in the ''Mini-Con Weaponizers'' subline imprint packaging refresh, the original red version of Optimus Prime was also re-released in ''Mini-Con Weaponizers'' packaging.

**''Accessories:'' 2 swords, axe, launcher

:Power Surge Optimus Prime is a retool of the original Warrior Class Optimus Prime figure, now transforming into a 6-wheeled futuristic trailer truck. Optimus now also comes with a pair of swords, which can be attached to his 5mm-compatible hands or the top of the truck/back port to serve as the robot's wings. Most notably, Power Surge Optimus Prime features retooled truck hood/shoulder parts to makes the hands more evident. As a retool of the original Warrior Class Optimus Prime toy, he retains his axe accessory, albeit unpainted just like the ''Clash of the Transformers'' Warrior Class toy's. His light blue-colored Launcher can be attached onto his collar.

:Like the original Warrior Class Optimus Prime, the figure features an undocumented feature: His axe can be stored on his vehicle mode trailer. Additional features include storing the axe onto either of his leg hooks, combining the launcher with either of the swords at their hilt, and storing the launcher underneath the vehicle. In a neat bit of engineering, he can fully transform with his swords attached.

:Power Surge Optimus Prime's scannable Autobot insignia is on his robot mode left shoulder. As he's packaged in robot mode, this badge is easily scannable while still in-package. Like his wavemate Bumblebee, this figure eventually saw release in the 11th wave of the Warrior Class line with the "Combiner Force" packaging. His scannable sticker is also altered, but scanning the badge only unlocks Energon currency, but not the character. This ''also'' applies to the original release's badge, but it unlocks eight Ultra Sparks instead.

:First released as part of the seventh wave of the Warrior Class assortment under the ''Mini-Con Weaponizers'' subline imprint, Power Surge Optimus Prime was later re-released in the ''Combiner Force'' subline imprint packaging refresh.

:This retooled mold was also used to make [[Nemesis Prime (RID)#TAV56|another Nemesis Prime]].

:His scannable badge is on the right side of his vehicle mode's trailer kibble, accessible while in-package. This Optimus cannot ride on [[Grimlock (RID 2015)#Stomp .26 Chomp|Stomp & Chomp Grimlock]] due to how the legs are molded.

:A surprise entry in the Titan Hero series, Titan Changer Optimus Prime transforms into a very tall robot to a truck with a veryyy long trailer and back! His hands can also accommodate weapon with 5 mm posts.

:His scannable Autobot insignia is on his robot mode chest. This badge is easily scannable while still in-package.

*'''Optimus Prime vs. Decepticon Bludgeon''' (Mini-Con Battle Pack, 2015)
**''Accessories'': Battle Axe, 5 armor pieces (combine to form into a weapon)
:Part of the first wave of ''Mini-Con Battle Pack'' figures, this Optimus Prime figure is about the size of a Scout Class figure (In Optimus' case, the size of ''Cyberverse'' Commander figure), and scaled with Legion Class figures. Its transformation scheme also takes some cues from the [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#Legion Class|Legion Class figure]]. Battle Pack Optimus Prime also features a transparent orange battle axe & armor pieces, although the chest armor/flip-up mask piece is needed to be assembled first. The included pieces can be combined into a clawed battle axe, or attached to his body to form his armor (although the flip-up mask can restrict his head articulation). Optimus Prime can totally wield the axe dual-handed. As an undocumented feature, the axe can be stored on his truck mode with the tab featured on Prime's right shoulder.

:The figure seems to have some transformation scheme & design related problems in it: The front truck cab's upper two pieces are supposed to be pushed to the front in robot mode, but the piece keeps collapsing back due to looseness when the figure is standing straight (Though pressing the two halves together firmly tends to reduce this issue for a while), while the tab underneath the truck grill does not connect well with the bottom port. Additionally, his 5mm compatible hands have a slight problem with wielding weapons with short 5 mm posts.

:Optimus Prime was also packaged with [[Bludgeon (RID 2015)|Bludgeon]], a Cyclone Mini-Con which is designed to be launched from the [[Deployer (WFC)|Deployer]] [[Crazybolt (RID)#Toys|Crazybolt]] and [[Overload (RID)#Toys|Overload]] toys.

:His scannable Autobot insignia is in his left shoulder. While accessible in Robot Mode (and in-package), the badge is impossible to be scanned in vehicle mode.

:This mold was also used to make [[Toys"R"Us Prime|Geoffrey Prime]].

**''Japanese Release Date'': 2016-[[June 25|06-25]]
**''Japanese ID Number'': '''TAV50'''
**''Accessories'': Sword
:Power Surge Optimus Prime is roughly the size of a Leader Class figure, and transforms into a truck in 7 steps. It comes with the [[Mini-Con]] [[Aerobolt]], who transforms from a bird to his chestplate. This triggers electronic lights and sounds, as well as deploying a mask, two shoulder cannons, and a pair of large wings for the larger robot. He is packaged with his front truck kibble detached from his body so he can fit inside his packaging properly.

:The toy was originally solicited as '''Gigawatt Optimus Prime''' in the Robots in Disguise Mobile Game.

:The ''Adventure'' release of the toy is named '''Hyper Surge Optimus Prime''', and it features a plastic color & extensive paint applications which is inspired by his ''Generation 1'' counterpart's colors.

* '''Strongarm and Optimus Prime''' (Crash Combiners, 2016/2017)
:Part of the first wave of the ''Combiner Force'' assortment, Optimus is a roughly Scout-class sized figure that changes from his futuristic truck with a combiner chest that doubles as his spoiler into a robot in <s>three</s> four extremely simple steps. His individual robot mode only has limited articulation on his shoulders. He also has a little green arrow above the connector on the truck bumper indicating where to crash him to combine with other figures. A 5 mm post hole on top of his vehicle mode can accommodate a compatible accessory or Weaponizer Minicon, though he cannot use it in his individual robot mode.

:Optimus Prime comes packaged with [[Strongarm (RID)#Crash Combiners|Strongarm]] and is intended to combine with her to form [[Primestrong]]'s upper torso. Connecting them to each other will activate Optimus Prime's automatic transformation, but Strongarm must be converted manually. He can also combine with any other Crash Combiner figure to form a random Combiner.

:Although no scannable badge is located at his robot mode, the badge was located at his combined mode's left shoulder. The badge was impossible to be scanned while in-package due to the obstruction of the spring-loaded combiner chest kibble. Speaking of impossible, the badges on the re-releases of the toy can't be scanned by the game. The instruction sheet amusingly replaces Optimus's last picture in the transformation process with [[Sideswipe (WFC)|Sideswipe]].

Like the previous versions, Optimus Prime can become the top half of any Crash Combiner gestalt, though his official combination is with Grimlock as [[Primelock]].

: The instructions also separated the transformation schemes on the flip-out head and the chest as the 3rd & 4th step. Also, unlike the first toy, Optimus Prime's lower chin is not entirely painted.

:This two-pack was a very late addition to the ''Robots in Disguise'' line, with a Hasbro product code number in the same region as the wave 1 Prime Masters from ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]''.

**''Japanese ID Number'': '''TAV21'''
**''Accessories'': Small Axe, Small Black Blaster, Bumblebee's Sword, Strongarm's Crossbow, Jazz's Lance, Drift's Sword

:Available only for the Japanese markets, this Optimus Prime is a large figure that stands around the same height as a ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' gestalt, and he transforms from a futuristic trailer truck to robot and back. The figure features 3 gimmicks:
:*Pressing the button on his robot mode chest activates the red lights (well, because the blue ones are expensive for the price point) on his chest, and the sounds and voice phrases (provided by [[Taitem Kusunoki]]) were played along with the light-up gimmick. Pressing the button for a few seconds will activate his long voice line with transformation sounds.
:*Pressing the two gray pieces on his arms makes the spring-loaded 5mm-compatible Decepticon Hunter hilt pop out from his hands.
:*Turning the dial on his left shoulder will feature a normal Autobot Insignia, and ''two'' Scan-badges.

:Optimus Prime also has a sculpted translucent Matrix panel inside his chest that lights up when his electronics are activated.

:The figure also features a hollow trailer, fit for the Warrior Class-sized toys. The trailer can also be converted into a battle station. Because of the toy's design & transformation, he is kinda show-accurate. Optimus also features 5mm-compatible ports on his trailer, arms, shoulders, legs, knees, waist armor, and the pop-out Decepticon Hunters. He also includes a number of soft rubbery weapons such as his signature axe, the sword, the crossbow, the lance, the katana-like sword, and the black blaster (the only one molded in hard plastic). The weapons can also be combined with the Decepticon Hunters into a dual-bladed weapon, or store into the trailer's inner panels. The weapons can also be wielded by any Warrior Class figures, although the accessories are associated with Bumblebee, Grimlock, Sideswipe, Strongarm, Jazz, & Drift.

:The two badges on his left shoulder are compatible with TakaraTomy's ''Transformers Chronicle'' app.

: Part of the fourth and final wave of ''Transformers [[Hero Mashers]]'' basic Action Figures —and the second of the ''Robots in Disguise''-themed product— Optimus Prime is a non-transforming action figure with ratchet-joints, about six inches tall. He has multiple peg-holes all over that can be used to mount any ''Hero Mashers'' accessory.

: He is designed with a removable head, forearms, thighs, and lower legs, all of which use the same clip-peg/hole joint. This means his pieces can be swapped around in any order, as well as swapped with any other ''Hero Mashers'' figure... which includes figures from [[Marvel Comics]], ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'', and ''[[Jurassic Park|Jurassic World]]'', meaning you can make some pretty freaky combinations.

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Studio Series]] Gamer Edition'' figures, "Gamer Edition Optimus Prime" is based on his appearance in the ''War for Cybertron'' video game and transforms into a Cybertronian truck in 22 steps. Unfortunately, the rear of the truck lacks any covering, leaving his hands ''very'' exposed from that angle. Due to his transformation, Optimus does not have the engraved Autobot insignia on his back like his game counterpart and the [[#Generations|original ''Generations'' figure]]. He has silver "windows", based on the in-game model but not the opening cinematic.

:Like other ''Studio Series Gamer Edition'' figures, his right forearm can be removed to attach his Ion Blaster or any other ''Gamer Edition'' blaster via use of a [[5 mm post]]. Unlike other ''Gamer Edition'' figures, his forearm can be stored behind his waist when not in use. The Ion Blaster is compatible with [[Fire Blast effect]]s, using a 3mm post instead of the usual 5mm port for blasters of this size. He also comes with his large battle axe, which is comprised of two handle pieces and a headpiece, as well as a 5mm compatible Matrix of Leadership accessory which is stored inside his chest cavity.

:Notably, Optimus' axe accessory has been designed so it can assume both configurations seen in the game; the larger blade can be left folded in half for a halberd-style weapon, as seen in cinematic cutscenes, or unfolded to make a double-bladed axe, as seen during actual gameplay. His shoulders can also be slid out and the transformation hinges used as butterfly joints to aid in posing with the large axe.

:For storage in vehicle mode, the blaster attaches on the truck bed while the axe head slots on top of the blaster. He has two 5mm ports on the sides of his vehicle mode, so the axe can be split and stored in a slightly more streamlined manner if desired. Unusually for a ''Studio Series'' figure, Optimus has no dedicated method of storing his weapons in robot mode. Some buyers have been able to find creative but unintentional methods, such as clicking the Ion Blaster to the thin section of the front bumper where the gaps on either side of the grill are. However, this can potentially scratch the paint, so due caution should be exercised.

:His instructions feature several errors. The assembly for the axes in robot mode have the arrows pointing the the wrong directions, indicating that you are supposed to assemble the haft and then remove the head. Step 6 highlights only the rotation of the chest piece to vehicle mode orientation, when the shoulders and arms should also be rotated, and step 8 shows the 'hood' resting on top of the wheelarches instead of underneath, which is shown in every step until 16, where it's suddently correct. Finally, there are two ways to attach the axe in vehicle mode, the first as depicted in the instructions where the attachment is on the head itself, and the other at the top of the haft as depicted in stock pictures.

:In a borderline unnoticeable case of misassembly, every single one of Optimus' wheels is on the incorrect side, as shown in the vehicle mode product render. The detailing is intended to point down instead of up to replicate the in-game tire model. To remedy this, swap the left wheels to the right side and vice-versa. Some copies have been reported to have scuffs and scratches on the softer blue plastic parts, particularly the back half of the vehicle mode. This appears to be due to the release agent used in casting being insufficient, causing the metal mold itself to scratch the parts as their sprue is removed. It appears to be less common and less severe in later waves than in its initial release.

:Optimus Prime was reissued in mid-2024 with preorders listed on April of that year. It was later retooled into [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#FracturedFriendship|Security Officer Orion Pax]].

<ul class="iconlist">{{Bp-a1|'''Optimus Prime''' (Voyager Class, [[2025]])}}</ul>
:*''Game'': '''''War for Cybertron'''''
:*''Accessories'': axe head, 2 axe handle pieces, [[Ion blaster#Transformers: War for Cybertron|Ion Blaster]], [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#GamerEdition|Matrix of Leadership]]

:Released in the [[Target]]-[[exclusive]] "MTMTE Collection", this redeco of the above Optimus Prime features additional paint applications: his chest windows are a more accurate black with red lines, the sides of his legs have filled in with red, "battle scars" have been added to his chest and shoulders, and his axe head is more thouroughly painted over in metallic orange.

:Keeping with changes made to ''Studio Series'' in 2025, the figure no longer includes a display backdrop and drops "Gamer Edition" from his name. He was made available for pre-order on [[June 6]], 2025, with a portion of the run also sold through [[Hasbro Pulse]].

==Notes==
[[File:SDCCPrimeOptimusPrimeTestShot.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|> OPEN PACKAGE You open the package. There is an Optimus Prime inside.]]
*A black and red version of the First Edition deluxe Optimus Prime could be seen in the [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2011 ''Transformers'' slide show, inside a mock-up of the wearable Matrix of Leadership package done for the convention that year. This figure was presumably a test-shot, as it seems to share plastic colors with ''Generations'' [[Black Shadow (G1)#Generations|Sky Shadow]] (who was, coincidentally, first revealed at that same Comic-Con).

===Arms Up Modes===
In the Japanese ''Prime'' toyline, Optimus has several powered-up modes when given various [[Arms Micron]]s in certain configurations:

[[File:SickMind CybSat-OpSkyMaster.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|He's about to pull a Powdered Toast Man.]]

*'''Sword Mode''' (ソードモード ''Sōdo Mōdo'')
**''Arms Microns'': B.B., C.L., O.P., R.A.
: Optimus's "Sword Mode", depicted on his AM-01 release box-back, which is just him brandishing the [[Star Saber (Arms Micron)|Star Saber]] while [[C.L.]] is attached to Optimus's right leg. Woo.

*'''Sky Master Mode''' (スカイマスターモード ''Sukai Masutā Mōdo'')
**''Arms Microns'': B.B. (x2), C.L. (x2), Jida (x2), O.P.
: The more interesting "Sky Master Mode", revealed in the "[[From the Cybertron Satellite, Transformers Division|Cybertron Satellite]]" segment of "[[Sick Mind|Phantom Transformation! Mind-Diving]]", has him using O.P. as a blaster, ''two'' [[B.B.]]s as leg-thrusters, and ''two'' sets of C.L./[[Jida]](!) combinations as back-mounted [[jet pack]]s. The [[Arms Micron#AMW Series|AMW versions]] of C.L. and Jida, while not as color-coordinated, are a far more economical option than buying two of each Cliffjumper. Good luck with the second B.B.. This mode was created as a "counter" to the aerial combatant Starscream, along with the [[Energon Sniper]] Combo Weapon (despite it being a Decepticon-Micron-formed weapon). Apparently, the "Arms Up Mission" game isn't picky about factions.

*'''Galaxy Prime Mode''' (ギャラクシープライムモード ''Gyarakushī Puraimu Mōdo'')
**''Arms Microns'': B.B., Jaze, O.P., Pral, R.A., Sise
: Seen on [[Unicron/toys#Prime|Gaia Unicron]]'s boxback, "Galaxy Prime mode" has Optimus wearing Gaia Unicron in "Gaia Armor" mode while holding the [[Star Saber (Arms Micron)|Star Saber]] and [[Cosmotector (Prime)|Cosmotector]] Super Combo Weapons.

*'''Ultimate Mode''' (アルティメットモード ''Arutimetto Mōdo'')
**''Arms Microns'': B.B., Baro, Baro G, Baru, B.H., B.H. B, C.L., C.L. GR, Dai, Gabu, Gora, Gora II, Igu, Jaze, Jida, Jida R, Noji, O.P., Pral, R.A., Sise, Shining B.B., Shining O.P., Shining R.A.
: This Micron-covered "Ultimate Mode" for Arms Master Optimus was shown in the Cybertron Satellite segment of "[[One Shall Rise, Part 3|Sealed Transformation! The Mystery of Orion Pax]]". He wears the Matrix on his chest with [[Baro]], Baro G, [[R.A.]] and Shining R.A. attached to it, [[Zori|Zori M]] on his back, Jida R and [[Igu]] on his right shoulder, Jida and [[Noji]] on his left shoulder, B.H. and C.L. on his right arm, B.H. B and C.L. GR on his left arm, [[Gora]] on his right hip and Gora II on his left, B.B. and Shining O.P. on his right leg, and Shining B.B. and O.P. on his left leg. Finally, he wields the Cosmotector and [[Dark Matter Calibur]] in his hands. Phew!

*'''Sky Wing Mode''' (スカイウイングモード ''Sukai Uingu Mōdo'')
**''Arms Microns'': C.L., Hades, Ida, Jida, Shining R.A.
: "Sky Wing Mode" is a flight-capable mode for Arms Master Optimus shown in the Cybertron Satellite segment of "[[Orion Pax, Part 2|Hopeful Transformation! Aim for Planet Cybertron]]". He wears [[Hades]] as wings with C.L. attached, and wields the Matrix Saber as well as a weapon made from Jida and [[Ida]].

*'''Aqua Screw Mode''' (アクアスクリューモード ''Akua Sukuryū Mōdo'')
**''Arms Microns'': Arc S, B.H. B, Baro, Baro G, C.L., C.L. GR, Dai, Gora II, Zamu
: A mode for Arms Master Optimus designed for underwater combat, "Aqua Screw Mode" was shown in Cybertron Satellite segment of "[[Loose Cannons|Explosive Sword Transformation! Wheeljack and Dreadwing]]". C.L. and Baro are combined into a propeller engine and attached to his right foot, their GR and G redecoes do the same for the left, and B.H. B is attached to his right shoulder to act as a radar system. He wears [[Arc|Arc S]]'s blade on his right arm and wields the [[Giga Tornado Cannon]] Combo Weapon.

*'''Space Blaster Mode''' (スペースブラスターモード ''Supēsu Burasutā Mōdo'')
**''Arms Microns'': B.H., B.H. B, C.L., C.L. GR, Gora II, Guru, R.A., Shining R.A., Zori M
: Arms Master Optimus's "Space Blaster Mode" is a mode designed for fighting in outer space, introduced in the Cybertron Satellite segment of "[[Armada (episode)|Infinite Transformation! Multiplying Enemies]]". He wears R.A. and Shining R.A. on his shoulders as wings, C.L. and C.L. GR on his back as thrusters, and B.H. and B.H. B on his feet as... more thrusters. His weapon of choice in this mode is the [[Matrix Blaster]].

Popular beast alternate modes

ThatGuy79: /* Snakes */ Redundancy

[[File:Class06-toy Grimlock.jpg|thumb|upright=2|There's more of these than you'd think.]]
Earth is a planet literally teeming with organic life forms. Millions of genera, of all shapes and sizes, inhabit the planet, and a [[Transformer|Cybertronian]] might scan any of them for a potential [[alternate mode]]. Some genera, however, are extremely popular with Cybertronians.

{{SITENAME}} has certain requirements for an animal to be listed here. There must be at least '''three unique toy molds''' (or in-fiction appearances, in the case of non-toy bodies/characters) that share the [[beast mode]]. There must also be at least '''one unique character per mold'''—a single character getting numerous revamps in similar bodies over the years would not count as a "popular mode."

Each mold is listed on its own line, with all different-character decoes/[[retool]]s on the same line. The list is (more or less) organized in chronological order of toy release or fictional appearance.

Dark Star Saber

2025-07-30T21:38:02Z

ThatGuy79: /* Transformers: Earth Wars */ Cleanup

[[File:Megatron TFPS313 standing.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Wait, how does it stay on his back? Glue?]]
The '''Dark Star Saber''' (sometimes spelled Dark Star Sabre) is a sword made from pure [[Dark Energon]]. Intended to be a dark counterpart of the [[Star Saber (Prima)|Star Saber]] itself, this blade possesses all the powers of the original blade, and is even stronger than its counterpart. Unlike the original blade, the Dark Star Saber doesn't require a Prime to activate its powers. It also appears somewhat sentient as it can resist [[Starscream (WFC)|certain individuals]], but even they can still use the blade's powers to an extent.

== Fiction ==
=== ''Prime'' cartoon ===
[[File:AlphaOmegaDarkStarSaber.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.67|''Mine's'' bigger now!]]
[[Megatron (WFC)|Megatron]], after securing the arm of a [[Liege Maximo|dead Prime]], used the [[Forge of Solus Prime]] to craft a counterpart to the [[Star Saber (Prima)|Star Saber]] out of a huge chunk of [[Dark Energon]]. Megatron first brought the blade into action after the decoding of the next Iacon relic in Egypt, and used it to make fools out of [[Arcee (WFC)|Arcee]] and [[Smokescreen (Prime)|Smokescreen]]. The waves of energy it created threw Smokescreen against a pyramid. When [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus]] arrived with his own Star Saber, the two engaged in battle, but the Dark Star Saber would prove to be stronger, breaking Optimus's sword. {{storylink|Alpha/Omega}}

Megatron took the sword with him to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] to find the [[Omega Lock]]. He got the opportunity to use it when the Autobots showed up, and Optimus attacked him with the reforged Star Saber. Megatron was confident that he could destroy the blade a second time but the Autobots escaped with the Omega Keys before he could do so. It also proved capable of destroying the [[Spark extractor|Spark Extractor]] when [[Smokescreen (Prime)|Smokescreen]] used the device against Megatron's men. {{storylink|Regeneration (Prime)|Regeneration}} After Megatron began using the Omega Lock to [[cyberforming|cyberform]] [[Earth]], Optimus charged at him with the Star Saber. Megatron managed to counter his first blow using the Dark Star Saber, only for Optimus to slice his sword arm off at the elbow. Both sword and arm were subsequently caught in the explosion when Optimus destroyed the Omega Lock. {{storylink|Darkest Hour (episode)|Darkest Hour}}

Knock Out and a squad of Vehicons headed back to Cybertron to retrieve any relics they could, {{storylink|Darkmount, NV}} the Dark Star Saber being one of those which were found and stored it in the ''Nemesis'' vault. When [[Predaking (Prime)|Predaking]] turned on the Decepticons for Megatron terminating his Predacons, Megatron decided to test the sword against him. Predaking found him before he could reach the vault, however, and Megatron was forced to outwit him without its might. [[Knock Out (Prime)|Knock Out]] brought the sword moments too late for it to be of use against Predaking, but just in time to be used against an imminent Autobot attack on the ship. {{storylink|Synthesis}}

He got the chance to employ it against Optimus when the Autobot leader attacked the warship. As the Autobot leader flew towards the ship, Megatron used the blade to take out the Autobot's jetpack. Optimus did eventually get to the Omega Lock, only for Megatron to attack him yet again with the blade, but this time Optimus managed to knock it out of his hand. After Megatron terminated [[Bumblebee (WFC)|Bumblebee]], the Decepticon leader used the dark blade to knock Optimus off the ship and cling for his life. Before Megatron could finish the job, he was killed when Bumblebee, who had been resurrected by the Omega Lock's energies, ran him through with the original Star Saber. As Megatron died he tried to run him down with the Dark Star Saber, only for it to fall from his grip and plummeted towards Earth. {{storylink|Deadlock (episode)|Deadlock}}

===2015 ''Robots in Disguise'' cartoon===
[[File:RiD 2015 Mini-Con Madness Screamy's Sword.jpg|thumb|upright=1|And now I shall get to the center of this Tootsie Pop Roll.]]
The Dark Star Saber was found at the bottom of the Earth's ocean by [[Clawtrap]] and the [[Scavengers (RID)|Scavengers]]. However Starscream showed up, tracking down the Minicons, and quickly reclaimed the sword. Strangely, the Dark Star Saber was starting to reject him. {{storylink|Mighty Big Trouble}} He observed that the sword seemed to think he wasn't totally worthy of it, but continued to utilise it anyway, including threatening Bumblebee and hunting "Earth rodents" when not carrying it clamped to his back at all times aboard his ship. {{storylink|Mini-Con Madness (RID)|Mini-Con Madness}}

When Starscream went into battle against the Autobots and [[Weaponizer (RID)|Weaponizer]] Mini-Cons, the Dark Star Saber showed the ability to unleash a pulse of stunning electricity, knocking out the Seeker's opponents to the last bot. Following his defeat by Optimus Prime, the Dark Star Saber was locked away on [[Prime Force One|Optimus' ship]] for safe transport back to Cybertron. {{storylink|Worthy}}

===''Transformers: Devastation''===
[[Optimus Prime (G1)#Transformers: Devastation|Optimus Prime]]'s [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Transformers: Devastation|Nemesis Prime]] DLC skin comes bundled with the Dark Star Saber instead of Optimus's default [[energon-axe]]. In-game, it sends waves of energy that add range and penetration to its attacks, although this also means that it's damage output isn't as great as most other weapons. {{Storylink|Transformers: Devastation|Devastation}}

===''Transformers: Earth Wars''===
[[File:EW-Dark Star Saber.jpg|thumb|right|]]
The Dark Star Saber is a thrice-dammed blade which, according to the [[Golden Disk (Voyager)|Golden Disk]], the [[Tripredacus Council|Tri-Predacus Council]] knew the location of. {{Storylink|Transformers: Earth Wars|Power Moves}} They could summon it when combined as [[Tripredacus]]. {{Storylink|Transformers: Earth Wars|The Big Hunt}} Legend described the sword as semi-sentient, and it is able to possess the mind of its wielder. {{Storylink|Transformers: Earth Wars|Double Jeopardy}} It had been previously wielded by [[Bomb-Burst (G1)|Bomb-Burst]], who became a shadowy predator that hunted [[Spark]]s for [[Unicron]]. {{Storylink|Transformers: Earth Wars|The Price}} It rested in the [[Unspace|Cosmic Void]] {{Storylink|Transformers: Earth Wars|Dark Design}} until it was called upon by Tripredacus when they sensed the void was breached. {{Storylink|Transformers: Earth Wars|The Big Hunt}} While in battle with [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]], Tripredacus dropped the blade. [[Tonbot]], [[Deluge (G1)|Deluge]] and [[Deathsaurus (G1)|Deathsaurus]] attempted to take the blade, and [[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimal Optimus]] tried to stop them. He knew that both the Star Saber and the Dark Star Saber needed to be returned to the void to stop the "Great Resetting". {{Storylink|Transformers: Earth Wars|Double Jeopardy}} Deathsaurus and Megatron both claimed the Dark Star Saber for themselves. Optimal warned them that if either raised it with conquest in mind, it would consume their eternal Spark and twist their minds. Megatron questioned how Optimal knew this, the answer was because when he tried using [[Prima]]'s Star Saber, he felt it attempt to insinuate itself into his Spark. Megatron told Optimal he could live with the Dark Star Saber as he saw no real downsides for himself. Deathsaurus also believed he could master the blade. {{Storylink|Transformers: Earth Wars|The Price}}

Guru

ThatGuy79: Little fixes

{{faction|decepticon|minicon}}
:''Guru is a [[Decepticon]] [[Mini-Con]] from the [[Transformers: Prime (franchise)|Prime]] portion of the [[Aligned continuity family]].''
[[File:SickMind AMT-Gul.jpg||thumb|upright=2.2|This page used to be titled Gul and we had jokes themed around it, but since the page was moved, the captions have been rethemed around the 2008 film ''The Love Guru'' starring Mike Myers.]]

'''Guru''' (グル) is [[Starscream (WFC)|Starscream]]'s [[Arms Micron]] partner. He rather takes after Starscream, being mouthy, ambitious, and cowardly.

==Fiction==
===''Prime'' cartoon===
{{note|Guru only appears as an actual character in the [[Arms Micron Theater]] segments of the Japanese broadcast of ''Prime''. Technically, he appears in the main cartoon any time Starscream uses his... uh... but we're not going to bother with that and just focus on his individual exploits.}}
{{voiceactor|[[Satoshi Tsuruoka]] (Japanese)}}
Guru, [[Noji]], [[Zamu]], and [[Gura]] had the Micron studio, with Guru taking command over the couch and declaring himself sub-leader of the Decepticon Arms Micron division. He got snippy with the other three for not shutting up and respecting his sub-leadership, but then [[Gora]]'s voice boomed through the room, scaring them all... {{storylink|Sick Mind|Phantom Transformation! Mind-Diving}} Offended, Guru began complaining loudly and at length about the interruption, not realizing that Gora was ''right behind him''. Gora promptly taught the bird-bot a lesson in shutting up by having the other Arms Micron form the [[Energon Sniper]] Combo Weapon and blasting him with it. {{storylink|Out of His Head|Counterattack Transformation! The Resurrection of Megatron!}}

Guru later participated in a Decepticon attack on the Autobot Arms Microns, which turned out to be a bad move since it interrupted one of [[Arc]]'s idol moments. She took vengeance by combining with all of her friends (including ''two'' [[O.P.]]s) and sending the Decepticon Microns packing. {{storylink|Shadowzone (episode)|Phantom Transformation! Skyquake Returns}} Once Gora then decided to marry Arc instead, Guru helped try to impress her by showing off Gora's various Combo Weapon forms, such as the [[Planet Bowgun]]. {{storylink|Crisscross (episode)|Strategy Transformation! Unravel the Sinister Thread!}} Guru and [[Zori]] were listening at the door during [[Gabu]], [[Baru]], and [[Dai]]'s introduction, but ran off when they combined into the [[Dark Matter Calibur]] and chopped said door in half. {{storylink|Metal Attraction|Adhesive Transformation!? Magnetic Tag Match}} He was also listening at the door during the Autobots' 20th episode celebratory party, this time joined by ''all'' the other Decepticon Microns. {{storylink|Partners (Prime)|Duel Transformation! Quell Cliffjumper's Regrets}}

[[File:Armada AMT-HellflameGul.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.1|Yeahhh, baby!]]
Guru and several other Arms Microns were present in a classroom when O.P. announced that their friend [[Zamu]] would be leaving them. {{storylink|Crossfire (Prime)|"Turbulent Transformation! Insect Battle}} When [[Ida]] was distressed over the capture of [[Airachnid (Prime)|Airachnid]], Guru offered to help her in the form of '''Hellflame Guru''', also known as the "Knight of Power". He combined with Shining Gura and Terrorcon Zori into the [[Solar Ion Arrow]] weapon and proceeded to do nothing useful. {{storylink|Armada (episode)|Infinite Transformation! Multiplying Enemies}} During a new years' battle between Gora and O.P., Guru formed part of the [[Gravity Planet Bowgun]]... while simultaneously appearing somewhere else to wish the viewers a happy new year. {{storylink|Triage (episode)|Sonic Transformation! Ratchet's Recipe}} He was later present when O.P. and Arc revealed the results of an Arms Micron popularity poll, in which he got in seventh place. {{storylink|Inside Job|Sky Dance Transformation! The Suicidal Skydive}}

Though Starscream ultimately gave up on trying to overthrow [[Megatron (WFC)|Megatron]], Guru had no qualms about continuing his attempts to do the same to Gora. However, as he was aiming his gun mode at his leader, Gora pointed out that he'd stopped being leader while Guru was away, though the ''new'' leader was in the room with them.

'''[[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]''' is the star of a [[Live-action film series|multibillion-dollar film franchise]], and as such has an ungodly amount of toys and memorabilia!

Seriously, he's probably got more than [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Optimus Prime]] by now.

He is one of two characters (the other being [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys|Optimus Prime]]) to have at least one toy in every size class.

**''TakaraTomy name:'' '''EZ Collection Bumblebee'''
{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: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 applications. Due to his simplified transformation, his hands are exposed on the vehicle bumper, and due to how the arms are molded, the headlights make the robot mode appear to be wielding a pair of guns. 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; the racing stripes just extend over it.

:The toy was also released in two different ways in Japan: the Hasbro version was initially released as a giveaway for the customers who purchased the Movie toys worth 3000 yen in the Transformers First Impact 0602 event held in Ikebukuro Toys"R"Us store at midnight [[June 2]]nd, with the package completely unchanged with the exception of the sticker covering the back to identify that this was a giveaway. The toy was also later released as part of the blind-packed EZ Collection lineup, distributed via TakaraTomy's subsidiary Subarudo.

:He was later redecoed into [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Legends Class toys|Cliffjumper]].

**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''MA-03'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[June 2]], 2007
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles, left and right spring-loaded missile launchers
{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro), [[Alex Kubalsky]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Part of the second wave of [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|''Transformers'']] Deluxe Class figures, the first Deluxe Class version of Bumblebee transforms into a yellow {{w|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 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 Technology|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 and you'll be transforming his front car hood manually. The retooled Automorph gimmick would be used for all subsequent versions of the mold, including a small number of Japanese releases, 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.

:One of the more unfortunate results of the car hood's automorph feature, leaves the front of the car form not staying together properly over time. While it may not happen to every release of the figure, it's definitely something to keep an eye out for.

: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 with metallic blue paint. The [[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 original Hasbro mold (complete with opaque windows) also saw release in Japan 10 years later, as part of an Amazon Japan exclusive 3-pack (see below).

:The packaging used for the Japanese release is the same as for the Hasbro version, with the exception of additional stickers identifying it as a Japanese market release.

:The toy appears to be partially based on an early character study of Bumblebee by [[Don Figueroa]], particularly his feet.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=A VERY early character study of BB for the first #Transformers movie.|link=https://twitter.com/SketchyFig/status/1524542496847458304|name=Don Figueroa|site:Twitter|year=2022|month=May|day=12}}</ref>

*'''Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter''' (Deluxe two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles, left and right spring-loaded missile launchers

:This battle pack contains the 1976 Camaro Deluxe Class Bumblebee and the Deluxe Class [[Barricade (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys|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 the 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 [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|toy drought]] following the movie's record-smashing opening.

:This set features an unaltered Deluxe Class [[Longarm (Movie)#TowedToSafety|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>

:This pack has only been confirmed to have been released in the United Kingdom.

**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''MA-10'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[August 9]], 2007
**''Accessories:'' [[Plasma cannon]]
{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro), [[Alex Kubalsky]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Released in the fourth wave of Deluxes, the second Deluxe Class Bumblebee toy shares no parts with the previous version and transforms into the {{w|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 Technology|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. Depending on how tight the shoulder ball joints are, posing his arms can be troublesome as they're jointed with the front wheel/car doors/wings. If the converting Plasma Cannon is removed from his vehicle form, the spring-loaded windows may become slightly dislodged unless you press both sides of the vehicle rear to counter this.

:Depending on the individual quality control, his pair of yellow shoulder panels tend to pop off occasionally. Care should be taken while transforming the front clear window piece: At least one of the protruding panels can snap off if not done carefully.

: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. His robot mode stock photo is mistransformed; the chest hood blocks can be flipped up for better accuracy. This mistransformation is common to all of his redecoes/retools below.

:A running change version of this sculpt adds sculpted pupils to Bumblebee's eyes. A ''second'' running change adds tabs to the hip panels, which makes the [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] hold together better.<ref name="conceptvariant">[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 sculpt.

:This sculpt was also used to make "Allspark Power" [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Deluxe Class toys|Cliffjumper]].

*'''Evolution of a Hero''' (Target exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles, left and right spring-loaded missile launchers, 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 sculpt.

:This two-pack was available as a Target exclusive in the USA, as a Zellers exclusive in Canada (in English-only packaging), as a Tesco exclusive in the United Kingdom and Ireland, and as an exclusive to stores that were members of either the Idee + Spiel or Vedes trade associations (which were cooperating at the time) in Germany.

:A more [[show-accuracy|screen-accurate]] [[redeco]] of Camaro Concept Deluxe Class Bumblebee, with all of the black plastic and paint operations (sans the racing stripes and the grille mesh) changed to gray. In addition, the translucent parts are now an ever-so-slightly greener shade of blue. The only other change is the addition of a new [[tampograph]]ed red Autobot symbol on his forehead. Unfortunately, his racing stripes aren't added with black border pinstripes.

:This ''Screen Battles'' pack (or "Battle Scenes" in Europe) also includes non-[[articulation|poseable]] [[Slug figure|figurines]] of [[Sector Seven]] agent [[Seymour 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,<ref name="checklist">[http://web.archive.org/web/20080920112933/http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/default.cfm?page=Collectors/Checklist Hasbro checklist] featuring Screen Battles sets with additional extras</ref> this pack was originally supposed to feature "ice soldiers" (plural), in addition to an "S7 agent" and an "S7 soldier". Apparently, the 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]], which was supposed to contain ''four'' soldier figures according to the same Hasbro checklist<ref name="checklist"/>).

*'''Final Stand''' (Screen Battles, 2007)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''SB-02'''

:This ''Screen Battles'' pack (or "Battle Scenes" in Europe) comes with an altered [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] toy and a posable, non-transforming, battle-damaged Bumblebee. Despite being in the same scale, this figurine utilizes none of the parts of the ''Robot Replicas'' toy. This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the battle in Mission City.

:The Bumblebee figure oddly does not feature the character's distinctive car door "wings" on his back. However, keen [[customizing|customizers]] 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,<ref name="checklist"/> this seems indeed very plausible.)

*'''Ultimate Bumblebee''' (Ultimate Class, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Missile

:The first Ultimate Class toy, this version of Bumblebee is similar in size to Supreme Class figures and transforms into a large 2009 concept Camaro. The toy features [[motorized movement|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. 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.

:The projectile included with this figure is the same mold included with several [[Attacktix]] figures like the [[Decepticlone]], Omnicon, Vehicle Mode [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]], and a few others.

:[[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 mis-transformed 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.

Other deco differences include the crotch being painted silver, and the details on the majority of the body are now replaced with a greener shade of grey, and the turquoise unpaintable joints in now molded in lighter teal. In addition, the left forearm & his head (due to being molded in the same light brown-ish grey) is also painted yellow. Rally Rocket Bumblebee also features a tampograph decal based on his alliterative nickname "BB", with the first "B" letter reversed.

**''ID number:'' '''TS-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Display stand, set of Camaro mode armor, set of protoform armor, open-palmed hands
{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: [[Trans-scan]]ning 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 metallic orange plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be transform into his meteor-like "entry mode". This mode 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 many armor pieces that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a licensed Camaro concept. Compared to the overly simple transformation of the protoform mode, his car mode's transformation can be described as an abominable, unintuitive, parts-massaging ''mess''.

: 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.

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.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Legends, 2009)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''EZ-03'''
{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

:''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 [[size class|price point]]).

:The [[:File:ROTF Legends Bumblebee HTS.jpg|second batch of stock photos of the toy]], which depict a [[prototype|(pre-)production sample]], show it in a much brighter shade of yellow plastic than it was released as. It's possible that this was simply the result of an excessive alteration of the hue settings during the digital enhancement of those photos, though.

:There are a few problems on the toy's vehicle mode: Probably due to tolerances, there are difficulties for perfectly aligning the wings/side windows with the legs/rear windows during transformation, though several samples does not seem to have this issue. In terms of deco, Bumblebee's face paint quality varies from figure-to-figure: Due to how the eyes are painted to emulate the mechanical optics; the central blue "eyeball" (especially the left one) is ''slightly'' lopsided. The forehead is often messily painted.

:In Malaysia, this toy is also one of the four Legends Classes to be released as promotional merchandise for the Petronas Gas Station. He can be obtained starting from the 26th of June (2 days are the movie's premiere), via RM30 ($7.04) worth of gas or RM15 ($3.52) worth of foods and items in the Mesra Shop.

:This mold was used as the basis for the non-toy character [[Saitama Prime]].

**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''RA-03'''
**''Accessories:'' Pulse Missile

:Released as part of a "preview" [[wave]] of the ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Deluxe Class assortment alongside [[Soundwave (ROTF)/toys|Soundwave]], Bumblebee is a relatively major retool of the Camaro Concept Bumblebee mold, featuring a new vehicle front end, hood and wheels to reflect the changes to the prop vehicle used in the movie; and in robot mode has a new, more accurate head sculpt... that just so happens to have some very creepy painted eyes but still, it's accurate nonetheless. Also, the paint on the door knobs, the gas lid, and the sculpted "Camaro" is omitted.

:His right arm has also been replaced by an all-new sculpt which substitutes the hand and the hand-held converting plasma cannon/blade weapon from the previous version for a built-in plasma cannon with a spring-loaded firing gimmick for the included missile. If one wishes to use the normal right arm, one must pop off the plasma cannon arm and replace it with the normal forearm from the Screen Battles figure (the only one with the accurate gray color), though the window must be replaced with the same translucent blue piece by unscrewing it.

:The instructions still depict him having the head from the 2007 Concept Camaro mold. Both the prototype and stock photos do not have his waist armor rotated into position in robot mode, while the later stock photo does not show the chest pieces being folded up. Due to the omission of the converting Plasma Cannon that holds the rear windows in position, the pieces may not align properly if the lower thighs/vehicle rear is not transformed properly during the robot-to-vehicle conversion.

:The initial production run included a missile that was slightly too long for the slot inside the arm, so it either has to be slightly cut down to fit or the cannon must be swiveled outwards to accommodate the missile. This was fixed by a [[variant|running change]] that saw the missile slightly shortened.<ref name="missile1">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/revenge-of-the-fallen/bumblebee/1757/ Seibertron.com gallery of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Preview" Bumblebee], depicting the early version with a slightly too long missile.</ref><ref name="missile2">[http://www.bwtf.com/toyreviews/rotf/deluxe/bumblebee/ BWTF review of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Preview" Bumblebee], depicting the later version with a missile that fits in without a problem.</ref><ref name="missile3">[http://snakas.web.fc2.com/09movie/ra03bumblebee.html Autobase Aichi gallery of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Preview" Bumblebee], featuring a comparison of both versions of the missile.</ref> The corrected version was also released in other markets such as Japan and Europe.

Interestingly, his arms can be detached and easily popped onto the original mold, resulting in a more [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] robot mode, though this sacrifices transformation. This extensive retooling results in a car interior with seats and a crude dashboard, but the windows are so opaque that these new details can't easily be seen.

The base plastic colors and matching paint colors are virtually identical to those of Cannon Bumblebee, as are the [[Paint operation|paint masks]] for the most part.

:Human Alliance Bumblebee comes with a posable figure of [[Sam Witwicky]] that can fit inside in Bumblebee's vehicle mode (plugging into his seat via a small hole in his back) and drive him. In robot mode, Bumblebee's vehicle mode seats end up on his arms, and Sam can sit in either of them; the seat on Bumblebee's right has a headrest that can fold down to look slightly less conspicuous in robot mode, while the seat on Bumblebee's left arm features a pair of cannons which flip over Sam's shoulders, offering him some offensive hardware to protect his rather precarious position. These cannons can also be flipped down further to form some over-the-shoulder restraints. Sam can also stand on a platform that flips out from the small of Bumblebee's back (again, via peg-holes on his feet), manning a small non-firing cannon that flips out over Bumblebee's right shoulder. Finally, Bumblebee's left palm also contains a peg, meaning Sam can securely stand or sit in his big buddy's hand. Bumblebee himself features a spring-loaded cannon for his right arm, which can fire the two missiles the figure comes with, a flip-out double-barreled silver cannon that points over his head, and a functional flip-down battle mask. Much like the rest of his Human Alliance brethren, Bumblebee is roughly the same size as an ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' toy, being slightly taller than ''Alternators'' [[Mirage (G1)|Mirage]] in robot mode.

:There is a significant [[misassembly]] issue with Bumblebee: according to TakaraTomy's images of the resin [[prototype]] as well as Bumblebee's CG design, the retail toy's legs are on the wrong sides of his body, so the details on his legs are inverted. Since the instructions reflect this assembly, it's possible that this was [[design change|done on purpose]] because, with the toy in its originally intended assembly, the waist section could be rather difficult to transform for children. The toy's originally intended assembly can still be [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/243649-human-alliance-bumblebee-leg-mod.html easily achieved by disassembling his crotch and reassembling the legs backwards.] Once this is complete, Bumblebee will look the way he was intended to look while adding some minor extra steps during transformation.

:Plonk him down. Lift him up. Plonk him down. Lift him up. This addictive toy transforms automatically when stood up (vehicle to robot), or placed on his back (robot to vehicle). A switch underneath his feet or his car mode releases the transformation — so the toy can be played with in relatively stable modes if held in the air, or just rolling along the ground.

:Because gravity is the powering force in the transformation there's no motors to wear out or batteries to use up when playing with the toy. Which is good, because you will be transforming him no less than nine million times.

:Bumblebee features dumpy proportions and low movie accuracy (no door wings here), forced upon the toy to accommodate the [[Gravity Bot]]s transformation gimmick. His robot mode has no articulation, not even head. But at least he has big feet! Or legs... or whatever the heck they are. Stump? At least he has a big stump.

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

: ''[[Transformers (2010 toyline)|Hunt for the Decepticons]]'' Bumblebee features a much more accurate and articulated sculpt in robot mode compared to previous versions of Deluxe class Camaro Concept versions of the character, with the [[transformation scheme]] taking many cues from ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Human Alliance Bumblebee, scaled down to Deluxe size, while using an [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]] design for the leg transformation directly based on the original Deluxe Class Concept Camaro Bumblebee.

: His right forearm can transform into his signature plasma cannon, though due to how the parts were distributed on the plastic sprues during production, the cannon barrel is yellow rather than grey. The left arm-guard has a flip-out axe made of translucent blue plastic, representing the axe weapon Bumblebee uses in the [[Revenge of the Fallen (video games)|''Revenge of the Fallen'' video games]], which itself may have been based upon the electrical [[Stinger (weapon)|stinger]] that was once considered as a melee weapon for Bumblebee in the first movie. The axe is spring-loaded, activated by a button on his arm-guard. This version of Movie Bumblebee also features a flip-down battle mask, very similar in function to Human Alliance Bumblebee.

: His head has a tendency to pop off during transformation. The space at the front of the collar would give him ''just'' enough clearance to pass his head through... if it was not for the small plastic flap (the one with the [[Autobot]] symbol) on his chest, which tends to push and squeeze the head out enough that the tension causes the head to pop and fly out from his ball-jointed neck.

: Stock photos show that the axe was originally made in such a way that the blade was mounted on a rod and could be rotated downwards, but this was changed entirely for unknown reasons (possibly fragility). As a result, the blade is mounted upside-down.

: The Japanese ''[[Autobot Alliance]]'' release features marginally darker yellow plastic and paint.

: Battle Ops Bumblebee is a larger-than-contemporary-Leader-Class figure, and features both "guardian" and "warrior" robot modes, which changes weapons and sound effects. His head has a flip-down battle mask, and his right arm converts into a plasma cannon automatically when his arm is raised. The cannon arm has limited articulation due to the gimmick, but features a small translucent-blue hand which telescopes out of the cannon when not in use. He also is armed with two non-firing light-up shoulder/hood missile launchers which can be deployed in either mode; though not mentioned in the instructions, the missile launchers can be collapsed on the back in robot mode. Also, you have to remove the plastic ring attached on the right cannon hand before you use the toy.

: As revealed at the Hasbro designers panel at [[BotCon 2010]], an easter egg is hidden in Battle Ops Bumblebee's electronics: when in vehicle mode, pressing down on the front left end of the vehicle (or pushing the front left wheel up) thrice will play the first verse of the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original ''Transformers'']] [[theme song]], and three subsequent presses will play the second verse.

: He also comes with two "Great Value" toys: an unchanged Legends Class [[Mudflap (ROTF)#BattleOpsCostco|Mudflap]] figure, and a "Premium" vacuum-metallized gold redeco of Bumblebee's own ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends Class figure.

:After 7 years, the second ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece Movie Series]]'' Bumblebee is its own dedicated mold rather than a repaint and is also based upon his body from the first live-action film. Does it convert? Does it ever!

:As usual, he transforms from a roughly Voyager-sized robot that scales with the Generation 1 ''Masterpiece'' Autobot Cars. He, however, does NOT turn into a Concept Camaro seen in the first live-action movie, but rather the production model 2010 Camaro SS. His yellow is also inaccurate: The MPM is casted in Rally Yellow, and not the PBC-30 Sunrise that is used in the film. The latter inaccuracy is possibly due to licensing restrictions, as PBC-30 is not a factory option. His right hand can be replaced with a Stinger Blaster, which can be stored in the vehicle mode. He also features die-cast parts on his bottom legs & his feet.

:Some units feature misassembled waist tabs. Although stock photos shows his tire rims being painted silver, the actual product has tire rims painted in Chevy’s Midnight Silver, which was used as an optional paint for the 2010's Camaros.

:The Japanese release omits the paint applications on the eyes to allow for light piping, and it features a less dark shading on the blaster weapon. As with most TakaraTomy toys, It also uses black screws over unpainted screws.

:In the United States, Canada, Australia, and Hasbro's Asian markets, ''Masterpiece Movie Series'' Bumblebee was exclusively available from [[Toys"R"Us]], as was TakaraTomy's Japanese release. He was also initially released in the Transformers Atrium Fair in Takashimaya B2 Atrium located at Singapore, limited to 300 pieces. In Spain, meanwhile, he saw a wider release, being at least available via the Spanish subsidiaries of [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] and Carrefour, as well as the department store chain El Corte Inglés. It's currently unknown if he was also available in stores, or limited to online purchases.

:Like the other action sets, this set's packaging includes a cardboard display backdrop. This time, it is of [[:File:Explosionfactory.jpg|an industrial area]], with a power plant of some sort in the background, with storage tanks to the sides. Oh, and there's fire and explosions ''everywhere''.

*'''Bumblebee / Starscream''' (Cyberverse 4-pack, 2011)
**''Accessories:'' Two-piece rifle

:[[Exclusive]] to [[Toys"R"Us]]'s Mission Earth series, this four pack contains two Bumblebee and two Starscream Cyberverse Legion toys. Cybertronian Bumblebee is a redeco of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Bumblebee]], done up in live-action movie Bumblebee-style colors, while the other Bumblebee is a paint-heavy redeco of Bolt Bumblebee (see below), partially cast in translucent plastic and painted with a grid pattern to simulate a [[trans-scan]] effect. This Bumblebee also comes with a redecoed version of ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' [[Skywarp (MW)|Skywarp]]'s [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|gun]], which can be held in his newly retooled right hand. (This weapon is also depicted on Starscream's side of the instructions, confusing matters of ownership a bit.)

:Care must be taken while rolling Cybertronian Bumblebee's vehicle: pushing down while moving the vehicle forward can chip the paint underneath the hip section.

:The Bumblebees come packed with a [[retool]] of [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|''Transformers'']] Legends Class [[Starscream (Movie)/toys#BeeStarscream|Starscream]] and a redeco of ''Legends of [[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]'' [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]].

:An early name for this set was "Cyberverse Evolution", which is still used by some websites (including the Australian and United Kingdom Toys"R"Us sites), but that name does not appear anywhere on the packaging.

:The [[stock photography|stock photo]] used for the [[packaging]] (which depicts a hand-painted prototype) shows him lacking the retooled hand. The other stock photo (see the image to the right), which depicts a pre-production sample, does show the retooled hand, but has the weapon's handle plugged into a conveniently fitting slot on his ''other'' arm for whatever reason.

*'''Bumblebee / Soundwave''' with '''Rodimus''' (Cyberverse 3-pack, 2011)
{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

:Available exclusively at [[Walmart]] in a three pack with [[Soundwave (ROTF)/toys#Cyberverse|Soundwave]] and [[Hot Rod (DOTM)|Rodimus]], this gold and silver Cyberverse Bumblebee is a redeco of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends class Bumblebee, and lacks the newly tooled hand of the Target-exclusive Cyberverse Bumblebee and 011 Bumblebee (see below).

:This three-pack was also available as an Asda exclusive in the United Kingdom and from Rossmann stores in Germany and Auchan stores in Hungary and Italy. Of note is that the [[multilingual packaging|European packaging]] does ''not'' market Rodimus as a "bonus figure" (presumably so stores can charge full price for three toys), and his window lacks the yellow edges highlighting him as a special feature, despite still being separated from Bumblebee and Soundwave, who share a common window like in the US version. Despite this, Rodimus still doesn't get a mention on the back of the packaging, which only features a one-sentence "bio" about Bumblebee planning to bring down Soundwave in twelve different languages.

:All versions of the packaging also lack any logos that label the toys as Cyberverse products.

{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (Hasbro)}}

:Part of the second wave of ''Dark of the Moon'' Cyberverse Legion Class toys, (Bolt) Bumblebee is a retool of the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends class Bumblebee with a new right hand that enables him to hold Cyberverse accessories and interact with Cyberverse playsets.

:Whereas the [[stock photography|stock photos]] depicted on the back of his packaging (which feature a hand-painted [[prototype]]) correctly show him with only a Cyberverse-compatible right hand and an unchanged left hand, the other set of stock photos (which feature a pre-production sample) depicts him with ''two'' retooled hands. Whereas the version with the new right hand was redecoed for several store-exclusive multi-packs, no version available in stores has featured the new ''left'' hand thus far.

:Although the toy is listed as "Bolt Bumblebee" on the official Hasbro website, the United States version and early releases of the [[multilingual packaging|European version]] simply use the name "Bumblebee" everywhere on the packaging, and the "Bolt" prefix was apparently only added as a [[variant|running change]] for later shipments of the European version.

{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (Hasbro)}}

:Part of the third wave of ''Dark of the Moon'' Cyberverse Legion Class toys, this toy is a [[black repaint|black]] redeco of his ''Dark of the Moon'' mold. His deco consists of the first two-thirds of his vehicle being cast in black, with painted yellow stripes on the hood and sides, and the rear third of his vehicle being an unpainted metallic yellow, giving the appearance of the stripes extending out from the back. His headlights and most of his windshields are painted a metallic blue, his crotch is painted silver, and he has a gold Autobot insignia on the tip of his hood.

:The yellow paint operations on the black plastic parts and the shade of yellow used for the unpainted yellow plastic parts clash so much that even [[Ben Yee]], who is usually ''very'' generous with his toy reviews, rated this redeco as sub-par.<ref name="stealthyee">[http://www.bwtf.com/toyreviews/dotm/legion/bumblebee-black/ BWTF review of ''Cyberverse'' Legion Class "Black" Bumblebee]</ref>

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

: Commemorating a hilarious and probably very expensive moment of stupidity on the ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon]]'' set wherein a {{w|Metropolitan Police Department|Metropolitan Police Department}} SUV was hit by a Bumblebee stunt car during filming, Bumblebee is a [[redeco]] of his Action Set toy (which uses his first ''Dark of the Moon'' Legion-Class figure) and is painted to hilariously have damage in the front of his vehicle mode. His [[Mobile Battle Bunker#CybertronianWarriors|Mobile Battle Bunker]] has been redecoed to be gray and had the jetpack slightly retooled.

: He was packaged in a Toys"R"Us-exclusive multi-pack with redecoed versions of [[Ironhide (Movie)/toys#CybertronianWarriors|Ironhide]], [[Crankcase (DOTM)#CybertronianWarriors|Crankcase]] (in a deco based on the aforementioned police SUV), and [[Barricade (Movie)/toys#CybertronianWarriors|Barricade]].

**''Accessories:'' MechTech Blaster/[[Plasma cannon|Plasma Cannon]]
{{toydesigner|[[Takio Ejima]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Deluxe Class figures, Bumblebee transforms into a customized 2011 Camaro Concept. Bumblebee comes with a [[MechTech]] weapon which is a "Blaster" weapon, which opens up into a larger "Plasma Cannon" when its lever is pulled, but it springs back into its original position once the lever is released. The MechTech weapon can be held in his hands, attach via [[5 mm post|5 mm pegholes]]/MechTech ports on his forearms, or plug in a "concealed" 5 mm peg hole on the vehicle mode's roof. Two extraneous 5 mm peg holes are also located on his vehicle mode hood flap and can be flipped up and used in robot mode to shoulder-mount weapons beside his head. Additionally, [[C joint]] bars are sculpted into Bumblebee's forearms. His pair of hands features poseable fingers (albeit 4+1), and it can be formed into a 5 mm compatible hand if adjusted properly.

:Bumblebee can form a semi-Stealth Force configuration by lifting up the rear half of his roof, exposing concealed cannons sculpted in translucent blue plastic. Also of note in vehicle mode is the sculpted Camaro SS badging near the doors, which doesn't appear on any other ''Dark of the Moon'' Bumblebee toy or the prop vehicles used for filming.

:Just like his CG robot model, his [[package art]] depicts his racing stripes being pinstripe-bordered despite his toy no longer having it. Whoops.

:Bumblebee is currently being sold in Universal theme parks in new packaging based on the ride. He is advertised as a Universal Studios Exclusive, molded in slightly different colors compared to his original widespread release, and also has some gold paint on his knees that the original did not have. This mold was also used to make ''Movie The Best'' [[Laserbeak (DOTM)#Movie The Best|Laserbeak]].

:Available in the third wave of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Deluxe Class figures, Nitro Bumblebee features booster engines, armor plating and other Stealth Force-like design elements sculpted onto his vehicle mode. Like the Leader Class toy, he features sculpted (but unpainted) "900 STRA" [[license plate]]s in both modes, making it the first time the license plate used for the car props from all three movies is used for a Deluxe Class toy.

:He comes with a MechTech Boost Engine, which converts into a Plasma Cannon when the lever is pulled, and although it is similar in function and appearance to [[Skids (ROTF)#Deluxe Class toys 3|Skids]]'s MechTech blaster, it is a new mold. He features five MechTech ports in vehicle mode: one on the hood, two of the roof and two behind his rear wheels. In robot mode, both of his arms have one MechTech port each, and the ports from vehicle mode can still be used.

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

:This [[Walmart]]-[[exclusive]] Bumblebee (also sold at Sainsbury's stores in the United Kingdom) is a redeco of the [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|2007 ''Transformers'']] Deluxe Class Concept Camaro Bumblebee, with the standard production model Chevrolet Camaro front end as compared to the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' ZL1 version and the first reuse of the 2007 mold, both hands and the hand-held [[plasma cannon]]/energy blade weapon. However, he ''does'' have the retooled shoulder panels that are held in place with screws (first introduced with ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Alliance Bumblebee).

:Bumblebee features many different ''Transformers'' [[insignia]]s from across different continuities, namely; [[:File:Ancient Autobot Symbol.png|Generation 1 Prehistory Autobot]], [[:File:Minicon symbol.png|Armada Mini-Con]], [[:File:Sumdac Systems.PNG|Animated Sumdac Systems]], [[:File:Playschool Go-Bots G.png|Playschool Go-Bot]], [[S.T.A.R.S.]], "FLY [[Omega Supreme (disambiguation)|Ω SUPREME]]", [[G.B.

:The [[stock photography|stock photos]] on the back of his packaging are quite strange, depicting a significantly different deco, with the primary color for his vehicle mode gradually fading from yellow to red towards the bottom, and parts of his abdomen sporting the same red color. In addition, his handheld weapon's blade sports a clear blue color. The final toy, by contrast, features no red at all, and his blade is cast in clear black plastic. Furthermore, the stock photos depict his eyes as bright blue, whereas the final toy's eyes are painted black. On top of that, the stock photos contradict ''each other'', with the photo of his robot mode depicting clear blue windows, whereas the photo of his vehicle mode depicts opaque ''black'' windows.

: Released in the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Leader Class figures, this version of Bumblebee is smaller than his previous Leader-sized incarnations and, ''technically'', is his first Leader-class toy. Along with the update to his Dark of the Moon form, this is also the first toy to feature a (sculpted) "900 STRA" [[license plate]] (the one used for the prop cars for all three movies). Being different in proportions to his other toys, this Bumblebee seems to have inspired his later "[[#NitroBee|Nitro Bumblebee]]" toy, having a much bulkier torso and smaller arms, with the entire hood pieces being deformed into his chest.

: The main gimmick is that he comes with a ''massive'' MechTech backpack, which hooks onto his back window/back, and is the sole electronic component of the toy. It resembles a [[jet pack|jet-pack]], and features missile pods and a cannon, all of which emit lights and sounds when pressed, and can be positioned for either robot or vehicle mode. Pressing the missile pod housings will emit orange lights and play the sound of a barrage of missiles being launched while pressing the cannon will prop up a targeting sight, emit green lights, and play the sound of the cannon deploying/charging and firing a powerful-sounding blast. The weapons can be deployed/retracted when the brown panel on the top-left of the backpack is slid, making the [[Transformation#The noise|transformation noise]] in the process (with an additional mechanical impact sound after deploying). There are a total of five MechTech ports and four [[C joint]] bars on the backpack, with a port and bar on each missile pod, a port on the side of the cannon barrel, a port on the sliding panel, a port on the top-center of the backpack, and a bar on top of each battery compartment.

: Bumblebee can also transform into his [[Stealth Force]] attack vehicle mode, wherein his hood portions split forward and open, his doors open and hinge up, his robot arms swing out from the sides to aim, his plasma cannon extends, and his backpack is attached and deployed, with dedicated pegs to help secure his doors, arms, and shoulders. Finally, like a few other Bumblebee toys, he also features a flip-down battle mask.

: Unfortunately, while Bumblebee has rotational leg [[articulation]], they're ''below'' the knees, limiting their usefulness. Even more unfortunately, while he's perfectly stable on his own, plugging in his backpack in robot mode will make him ''very'' back-heavy, resulting in significant balance issues and limitation of poseability due to his [[Ratchet (mechanism)|ratchet joint]]s not being strong enough to handle the additional weight on one side. Posing him to lean forwards or posing his legs further to his back may remedy this.

: His secondary stock photos are slightly mistransformed: his shoulder collars are not folded out. Ironically; this mistranformation ''also allows'' the head to move slightly freely.

{{toydesigner|[[Lenny Panzica]] (Hasbro)}}

:As with other Dark of the Moon Activators toys, this Bumblebee figure (released under the [[Robo Power]] subline) is a very simple one-step transformation toy. Transformation consists of positioning him on the large blue section to the rear of his vehicle mode and pressing down, causing his components to shift around and reveal his robot parts; from there, one just has to rotate out his arms. Transformation back to vehicle mode is done by reversing the steps.

:Bumblebee was packaged in vehicle mode on an open, bubble-less card and tied down with twist-ties around the body of his truck form so that he couldn't be transformed in package.

:[http://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/110058-question-robo-power-activators/ At least one report] has surfaced of a brand-new figure missing one of the locking tabs that work the spring-loaded transformation mechanism, leaving the figure unable to transform properly. Although most likely a one-off incident as no other cases are known to have happened, care should still be taken.

:Available exclusively at the gift shop for "[[Transformers: The Ride – 3D]]" at [[Universal|Universal Studios]] theme parks, this set features a Bumblebee Kreon based on the first three live-action movies, aka "the version of Bumblebee that there's a giant costumed performer of at the park that guests can get their pictures taken with". After several years of only being available at the park proper, the 4-pack was eventually added to Universal's online store.

: In 2015(?), a new production run of the set was made using the revamped 2015-style Kreon bodies, among a few other small changes, including sharper tampographs with thinner linework. This set would later see slight production changes; the only notable change to Bee is that his tampographs have gone back to thicker lines and being a bit sloppier, something that happened to all of the figures in the set.

: In 2020, the set was revamped ''again'', removing Evac and replacing him with the [[N.E.S.T. Sentry]]. The other figures in the set are unchanged from their thicker-tampograph 2015-body versions.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Evolution 2-Pack, 2014)
**'''22 OF 30'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[August 3|8-3]], 2014
**''Accessories:'' 2 throwing stars

: Available only at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores in the US, Canada, the UK and Germany, this two-pack contains a Deluxe Class Bumblebee based on the new form he acquires part way through the ''Age of Extinction'' film, transforming into a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro concept. He includes two 'fake kibble' hubcaps, which can be screen-accurately mounted on his back, removed and held as throwing star weapons, or store underneath his vehicle mode. Additionally, his right forearm features a flip-out cannon, and his head sports a flip down battle mask (which is inaccurate to the actual battle mask in the film). The car windows on his forearms can be flipped down to represent the missile launchers he uses in the movie. Bumblebee cannot transform into vehicle mode with his Shurikens pegged on his back.

: The two-pack also includes a 'Classic' Bumblebee [[redeco]]ed from the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Generations|Legends Class Bumblebee]], cast in a slightly lighter yellow with blue headlights and taillights and armed with a black and yellow redeco of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[Jolt (ROTF)#Deluxe Class toys 3|Deluxe Jolt]]'s [[MechTech]] weapon. In most regions, this pack was released ahead of the ''Age of Extinction'' Deluxe figure's single-carded release.

: The two-pack was one of the three Evolution 2-packs available as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in Japan, with no changes to the figures themselves. The box features Japanese translated versions of the English text on the front and a sticker on the back confirming that this was a Japanese release. Take note that this was also the first Japanese release of the 2014 Camaro Bumblebee mold, 7 days ''before'' its ''Movie Advanced'' Series release (seen below).

:This individual release of the Bumblebee is an unchanged version of the figure from the Evolution two-pack. He still includes the two throwing stars and the flip out cannon and flip down battle mask. Some variants are more of a yellow color than the original orange-ish yellow color. The Japanese release of the toy, released as part of ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)#Movie Advanced Series|Movie Advanced Series]]'' lineup (7 days after the original Hasbro Bumblebee mold from the Evolution 2-pack Bumblebee released in Japan), features paint operations on his robot mode's arms, thighs, & his eyes...although this neuters the light-piping gimmick.

:Most promotional images featuring this figure (like the one above), except the ones from Takara, have Bumblebee mistransformed, with his shoulders not folded down correctly and his front bumper/grille not folded down into his chest.

:The mold was later redecoed as Movie Advanced Series [[Stinger (AOE)#Movie Advanced Series|Stinger]].

**''Accessories:'' 2 throwing stars

:''Platinum Edition'' Bumblebee is an extensively redecoed version of the second Deluxe Bumblebee figure. While the figure shares very similar paint operations from the ''Movie Advanced Series'' release of the figure, Bumblebee features extra paint apps on the wheel rims, toes, spoilers, some chest details, and other vehicle mode detailing, while the light-piping gimmick on the eyes is retained instead of painted over. Some other altered decos from the ''Movie Advanced Series'' includes replacing the black toes into gunmetal.

:Bumblebee was released as a BBTS shared exclusive "Autobots United" set along with screen-accurate redecos of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], [[Crosshairs (AOE)|Crosshairs]], [[Drift (AOE)|Drift]] and [[Hound (Movie)|Hound]].

{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (deco artist)}}

: A toy exclusive to Takara's 'Movie Advanced' line, this Bumblebee is a redeco of [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|''Transformers (2010)'']] Battle Blade Bumblebee. This toy combines with some unpainted yellow robot parts and has metallic yellow paint on most of his car shells/body parts...resulting in weird, two-tone yellow colors in robot mode. Other than this, the paint masks are ''completely identical'' to the original mold, with an exception of the flip-out cannon & his blade, which is chromed. Because of the gradual downsizing of deluxe figures after 2011, this Bumblebee was released as a Voyager Class figure despite its original release being a Deluxe Class figure.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Leader Class, 2014)

:Leader Class Bumblebee is a redeco of the ''Dark of the Moon'' Leader Class Mechtech Bumblebee figure, omitting the MechTech backpack for cost reasons, and features a deco pattern similar to his appearance in ''Age of Extinction''. And of course, as a redeco of the Leader Class toy, Bumblebee can attach to said backpack. He shipped in solid cases, not part of the regular ''Age of Extinction'' Leader assortment. The stock photo on his packaging is a color-swapped version of the original prototype photo, lacking the backpack.

:While Bumblebee was available at general retail in some countries like Malaysia, Singapore and Australia, he was a store [[exclusive]] in other markets such as the United States (at [[Costco]]), the United Kingdom (at [[Smyths]]), Canada (shared exclusive between Costco and Canadian Tire stores) and Germany (at Rossmann drug stores).

The added "Shirei, sasugassu!" on his name means "As expected of the commander!" (司令、さすがっす!) said in a flippant kinda way. This line was given as one of Bumblebee's catchphrases in his profile for the ''Q-Transformers'' cartoon.

:This toy was re-released with a new ID number as part of the second ''Q-Transformers'' series.

:This Bumblebee is a ''slight'' redeco of the second [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|''The Last Knight Premier Edition'' Deluxe Class figure]], with darker yellow plastic and paint seen in the first ''Movie The Best'' figure above. He also sports some tooling changes: Notably, the arm cannon is a different tooling that is the mirror opposite of the version available with the original release, and thus it is designed to attach to the ''right'' arm instead of the left one. Less notable is the addition of a [[C joint|3 mm peg]] to the right forearm to make it a mirror opposite of its left counterpart, allowing it to be attached to the back while the cannon is attached to the arm. Additionally, he comes with a new hammer accessory (hence the name) based on the hammer Bee used during his fight with Nemesis Prime in ''The Last Knight''. The Hammer can also be stored onto the rear hip, or onto Bumblebee's vehicle spoiler, mounted along with the Stinger Blaster. All the new pieces are made from the same tooling, resulting in slightly mismatched forearms, with the new right one made of gray plastic painted orange and silver while the left one is made of orange plastic with silver paint.

While the paint applications are identical to the (second) Takara release of the figure, Bumblebee also features a brighter yellow paint & plastic previously used for his ''The Last Knight'' toys, features additional paint operations on the rocker panels, the headlights are now brighter blue, and the windows are now smoke gray. Stock photos for his robot mode are mistransformed: his shoulder armors are not folded down.

He features hands that are compatible with ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' weapons and other 3 mm post accessories. Like all Tiny Turbo Changers, his vehicle-mode tires do not spin, sorry.

:He and the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#TinyTurboChanger|Optimus Prime]] were available in the first two series of the line, with no noteworthy changes between releases – even Bumblebee's misassembled legs and their bag codes remain unchanged.

The easiest way to identify the variant is by looking at the bottom rear piece while the figure is in-package, as the black paint can be seen through the clear plastic. This variant also applies to the TakaraTomy release of the figure. Due to this, the initial variant became less common.

:This Deluxe Class Bumblebee transforms from a robot based on his appearance in ''The Last Knight'' into a 2017 Concept Camaro. He also comes with a "Stinger Blaster" arm cannon, which replaces his left arm. Both of the left arm parts can be stored underneath his rear robot mode hip.

:On many copies of this toy, the pegs securing the feet come undone easily, making the feet floppy, while some parts like the "wings" are prone to becoming detached. Despite what the instructions say, the left arm should be pulled sideways out of the joint instead of down to prevent breakage of the connection. On several occasions, the only way to secure the feet's pegs is by pressing the pieces together firmly. (Make sure the pieces are properly adjusted.)

:The TakaraTomy stock photo of the robot mode has the waist kibble slightly mistransformed.

:This mold was also slightly retooled (changing the replaceable gun arm from the left to the right arm) into [[#MB18|''Movie The Best'' War Hammer Bumblebee]] and was used to make [[#Studio_Series|''Studio Series'' Bumblebee]].

**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''TLK-EX'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[September 30|09-30]], 2017
**''Accessories'': 2 projectiles (1977 Camaro Bumblebee), Missile (1967 Camaro Bumblebee), Detachable Arm Cannon (2016 Camaro Bumblebee)

:''[[Transformers Tribute]]'' Bumblebee Evolution 3-pack consists of redecos of [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys|the first Deluxe Class Bumblebee figure from the 2007 Movie]], [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys 5|High Octane Bumblebee from ''Age of Extinction'']], and the most recent, [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#ThirdTLKDeluxe|second ''Premier Edition'' Bumblebee figure]]. The 3-pack features particularly unique packaging, modeled after a garage, complete with graffiti.

:For the 1977 Camaro Bumblebee figure, he uses the opaque windows from the Hasbro release and the fixed Automorph gimmick from the Towed to Safety and the Evolution of a Hero 2-packs. Paint operations on this Bumblebee are minimized compared to his original release, omitting the battle damage on the vehicle mode and some smaller details of his robot mode such as the blue stripes on his thighs and parts of his face. The Automorph button does not use the painted stripes from the Evolution of a Hero 2-pack.

:The 1967 Camaro Bumblebee figure keeps the paint layout of its original "High Octane" release, but features several plastic color differences: The yellow parts are changed from a darker, more orange-y tone to the same lighter shade of yellow plastic shared among all the figures in this set, with the yellow paint operations and tampographs in vehicle mode changed accordingly, all the charcoal-colored parts are replaced by black plastic, the missile (and all of the unpaintable plastic joints) is changed from black to yellow, the baby blue paint operations for the eyes are changed to a darker tone, and the fully transparent windows are now a slightly tinted translucent plastic.

:The 2017 Camaro Bumblebee figure also features smoky translucent plastic in his windows as opposed to the original's entirely transparent ones. The Hasbro stock photo for his robot mode still depicts him holding his arm cannon as a gun. This also applies to Takara's secondary stock photos. Speaking of Takara, his vehicle mode roof is also slightly mistransformed.

:The set also saw release as an Amazon Japan exclusive.

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Studio Series]]'' Deluxe Class toys, Bumblebee transforms into a yellow 1977 Chevrolet Camaro based on his appearance in the first live-action ''Transformers'' movie in 22 steps. He recycles the engineering of [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|''The Last Knight Premier Edition'' Bumblebee]] with all new parts, and is slightly smaller than said mold to fit in the new ''Studio Series'' scale. As a consequence of borrowing sculpting from the ''Premier Edition'' figure, this version of Bumblebee has some inaccuracies, including the arrows on top of his head, the panels on top of his shoulders, and the design of his forearms and thighs. Bumblebee uses a [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|fake]] front grill on his robot mode chest, which the real grill slides over in vehicle mode. He also features rectangular holes on his lower front bumper, the rocker panels, the rear end of the front hood, and the lower valance, all meant for a [[#SS15|later release]].

:Bumblebee includes a cardboard backdrop display depicting his encounter with [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] and a Stinger Blaster based on the one from the ''Premier Edition'' figure, though mirrored to accurately attach to the right arm like the [[#MB18|''Movie The Best'' War Hammer Bumblebee]] toy. This version replaces the forearm using a hex peg instead of swapping at the bicep joint. The blaster/forearm stores behind the waist when not in use. The blaster can be mounted onto the rear bumper in vehicle mode.

:Depending on the individual sample's quality control, Bumblebee has some problems with parts (notably the rear section of the vehicle) refusing to lock together and continually detaching from their proper position thanks to some tolerance issues. His lack of pins on the car roof, combined with said quality control issues, make the transformation ''absolute hell'' if followed by the instructions. Thankfully, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bm921hDELGM ways] have been found to transform him to help remedy this problem. Also, be careful with the shin pieces as they can collide during transformation, scraping off the yellow paint.

:Bumblebee, along with the rest of Wave 1 Deluxes, was made available at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] following New York [[Toy Fair 2018]], two months ahead of the scheduled brick and mortar release. The second run of the toy features a running change that eventually amends the quality control issues that plagued the first run. The fixed version's date code is written as "80201". Sadly some copies carrying this code still have the QC issues from the original figure.

**''Movie'': '''''Bumblebee'''''
**''ID number'': '''15'''
**''Accessories'': Detachable Stinger Blaster, bumper, 2 rocker panels, 2 spoilers, 2 hoods, [[Charlie Watson#Studio Series|Charlie Watson]] figurine, "Highway Freedom" backdrop

:This ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee is a redeco of the above ''Studio Series'' 01 toy, featuring new customizable parts (front bumper, rocker panels, two spoiler options, and two hood options) for his vehicle mode to evoke the look of a muscle car (while making use of the rectangular holes from the original toy), though they prevent him from fully transforming into robot mode while attached (with the exception of the car hoods). The set includes a Charlie Watson [[Slug figure|figurine]] wearing a shirt with the ''Bumblebee'' logo. Compared to the first ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee toy, he has a black front grill with extra yellow paint on his hands and shoulders, but loses the striping on the vehicle shells and chest, the silver on the feet and on the blaster's arm guard, and the paint on his torso flap. Instead, a vast sticker sheet is included with multiple different decals to customize the figure.

:This set was originally intended as a [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive and had the working name "Rebekah's Garage" (presumably the name of the originally intended backdrop scene; the general retail wave 3 figure listed below has a "Charlie's Garage" backdrop), but because of Toys"R"Us's bankruptcy, those plans were changed. After having been found at a single [[Target]] store in the United States before it was even officially announced, it was revealed as an alleged [[Entertainment Earth]] "exclusive", but was simultaneously also listed by competing online retailers such as [[BigBadToyStore]] and ToyWiz, in many instances still under the old working name. It ''was'' released as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in Canada, with store price tags featuring yet ''another'' working name, "Street Racer Set". Neither name can be found on the packaging, which simply calls the figure "Bumblebee" with no additional prefix or suffix, and the included backdrop is "Highway Freedom", depicting a scenic coastal drive.

:All stock photos of the toy's robot mode are mistransformed: his back kibble/car roof is not folded into his back. They also have his blaster jammed over his right hand instead of swapping out the arm. Best not to replicate this as it may damage the parts.

**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[October 27]], 2018
**''Accessories'': Detachable Gatling Gun, arm blade, battle-mask face, "Charlie's Garage" backdrop

:Part of the third wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, Bumblebee transforms from a robot based on the ''Bumblebee'' film into a 1967 Volkswagen Beetle and back! He is based on concept art for the film, and thus has numerous inaccurate details, most notably the large door wings that weren't present on the final design. At the time, he was one of the smallest Deluxes in ''Studio Series'', standing at the same height as [[Jazz (Movie)#Studio Series|Jazz]], due to his small stature in the ''Bumblebee'' film itself.

:He comes with a detachable right Gatling Gun arm, an arm blade that can be attached to either forearm, and a battle mask that can be switched out with his removable face. All his accessories can be attached to the underside of his car or to his back in robot mode, with the unused face hanging off one of his smaller door wings. Bumblebee cannot be transformed with his Gatling gun arm on. Also included is a backdrop showing Charlie’s garage.

:Like the first ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee, this figure also suffers from several design flaws exacerbated by potential quality control issues. Due to the tolerance-altering layers of paint involved, the connection between the face pieces and the back of the head can either be too tight or pop off easily, potentially causing paint chipping. Meanwhile, his vehicle mode's kibble has some minor tabbing issues, notably on the waist piece. His 5 mm-compatible hands are prone to popping out if rotated back too far, and his door wings in robot mode have a tendency to flop over time. However, a gradual running change seems to have fixed these errors almost entirely.

:The vehicle hood and roof that forms his backpack is meant to lock securely into a groove on his upper back in robot mode, but there are two tabs along his back that make this process ''very'' difficult and pose the risk of breaking the translucent plastic hinge that has to be forced over them during transformation. While the first tab, located on his waist, is required to store his gun arm, the second tab just below the groove can be sanded down to ease transformation.

:TakaraTomy stock photos of the figure are actually those of their [[#7NetBattleDamage|rusty redeco]] of the figure, as evidenced by the missing silver paint on his feet and remnants of the added rust deco that were not completely edited out. This also makes the photos an unintentional reveal of the [[#SS24|Then & Now Bumblebee]] figure. One of the robot mode stock photos is also slightly mistransformed: his chest pieces are not locked correctly.

:To commemorate the ''Bumblebee'' movie, this ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee is a redeco of the [[#Studio Series|1977 Camaro mold]] based on the 1978-81 Camaro Z28, featuring smokier windows, dark gold plastic, and gold painted vehicle parts. He also features a different vehicle striping with miniature ''Bumblebee'' logos and a "Z28" label. In addition, the set uses a lineup number of 19, the second Hasbro exclusive in ''Studio Series'' to possess a number after [[Thundercracker (Movie)#Studio Series|Thundercracker]]. This Bumblebee uses the second run of the mold, which appears to be much more stable than the initial retail release.

:The real selling point of this set is the addition of two ''Japanese-original'' Mini-Cassettes: [[Dairu#Toys|Dairu]] and [[Uruaz#Toys|Uruaz]], the first ever Hasbro releases of the molds.

:This set also bucks the typical ''Studio Series'' packaging design, having a special cassette-styled box inside of a decorated sleeve and omitting the line’s signature backdrop displays. The back of the sleeve lists [[User:BluJayWarrior/SSRetroSongReferences|Transformers-themed parodies]] of real song titles and amusingly includes a disclaimer saying “Product does not contain music”.

:This set debuted at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2018 and was later made available via Hasbro Toy Shop. It also saw later release at Paris Comic-Con 2018 and in Japan as Tokyo Comic Con 2018 and TakaraTomy Mall exclusives. In Taiwan, this set was available at general retail.

:This ''Studio Series'' two-pack consists of 24 "Bumblebee 1967 Volkswagen Beetle", a redeco of the [[#SS18|Beetle mold]], and 25 "Bumblebee 2016 Chevrolet Camaro", a redeco of the second [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|''Premier Edition'' mold]]. This Beetle Bumblebee features a number of rusty paint applications along the sides and front of the car and the silver paint operations are removed from his feet, which was previously seen in the TakaraTomy stock photo of the individual release. Additionally, the Autobot symbol on his non-battle mask face is larger. Deco omissions on the Camaro Bumblebee include the silver on the shins and shoulders. There is more black paint on the rocker panels and the front bumper.

:Both figures come with individual deluxe-sized backdrops, though they share one instruction sheet. The "California Hideout" backdrop is identical to the "Charlie's Garage" backdrop included with the first Beetle release. The Camaro Bumblebee’s backdrop depicts his chase through the streets of [[London]].

:The CG renders on the packaging depict the Beetle Bumblebee having silver paint on his feet, while the Camaro Bumblebee has the silver paint on his biceps, shins, and kneecaps.

**''Accessories'': Pistol, hammer, "WWII Flashback" backdrop

:Part of the fifth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, "WWII Bumblebee" is based on his appearance during [[World War II]] in ''The Last Knight''. Rather than transforming into the Mercedes-Benz car as seen in the movie, he transforms into an armored car as in [[Josh Nizzi]]'s concept art for the character — though it's a ''different'' armored car, being a {{W|Humber Light Reconnaissance Car}} rather than a {{w|Humber Scout Car}}! The vehicle parts feature a subtle olive paint wash. In a near-unnoticeable detail, the Autobot insignia can barely be seen on his forehead as it blends in ''too'' well with the green plastic.

:Bumblebee's Warhammer, based on the one used in World War II (and can double as a monotone version of the warhammer used in his fight against Optimus), doubles as a vehicle mode artillery barrel, with his handgun transforming into a top-mounted turret. While the turret base can be rotated, the pistol's handle is loose enough to swivel while mounted on, rendering the feature pointless. The hammer can be mounted on his robot back, and can be rotated to have the handle pointing upwards like in the movie. The gun has no designated storage in robot mode, but the backpack can be transformed into its vehicle mode configuration to store both weapons. The backdrop displays the Allied assault on a Nazi building. Bumblebee only comes with one gun despite wielding two of them in this scene.

:WWII Bumblebee also features a pseudo-[[Automorph Technology|Automorph gimmick]]: His front chest panel can be pushed up/down, extending/retracting his head. Due to his transformation scheme, WWII Bumblebee is a [[shellformer]], with the majority of the vehicle shells hanging on his rear. The kibble backpack also blocks the 3 mm hole for display stands unless it's slightly lifted up. In a rather baffling design flaw, the holes on the chest panel are seemingly meant to lock with the shoulder joints' tabs, but they are too far apart to be tabbed in. On the bright side, the arms are not easily dislodged further from the central body as the backpack holds the shoulder assembly in place.

:This mold was retooled into [[Hot Rod (DOTM)#Studio Series|WWII Hot Rod]].

:Part of the fifth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, "Clunker Bumblebee" is a redeco of the [[#Studio Series|''Studio Series'' 1977 Camaro Bumblebee]], sporting a deco representing the beat-up look he had when first found by Sam, and even comes with a backdrop of [[Bolivia's Finest Quality Used Cars and Petting Zoo]]!

:The deco seems to be based on the [[#SSTaoBao|Taobao giveaway figure]] (or perhaps, using the same slightly inaccurate reference), though not as finely detailed. Consequently, he is missing a large rust spot on the back of the roof and there is extra rust on the doors and back, among other differences. There are also other paint changes on this figure: his chest's stripes and stomach's paint apps are omitted like the [[#SS15|Charlie Watson multipack]], the rear vehicle stripes are shortened, and the Stinger Blaster is entirely coated in silver (except the pegs). Some yellow paint is omitted from his forearms and the painted pegs on the feet that connect with the thighs in vehicle mode are removed. The Autobot symbol on his forehead is also slightly narrower.

:This release of the mold finally adds pins for the car roof's midsection, which prevents it from falling off during transformation.

:The fifth general retail Bumblebee figure in the ''Studio Series'' lineup, this Bumblebee represents his updated form in the 2007 ''Transformers'' movie and transforms in a whopping 39 steps, with some transformation cues taken from his ''Studio Series'' [[#Studio Series|1977 Camaro version]] and from the ''Dark of the Moon'' [[#NitroBee|Nitro Bumblebee]] mold. Like the [[#MPM3|''Masterpiece Movie'' figure]], this Bumblebee does not actually turn into his screen-accurate 2006 Camaro Concept, but rather a production 2010 Camaro, likely due to licensing. Notable differences are the shaping of the front bumper and the inclusion of an antenna on the roof.

:His head comes with a non-removable battle mask, which is on the same size ball joint as the original and Clunker versions of Bumblebee in this line, allowing you to easily swap the heads. Unlike the past ''Studio Series'' Camaro Bees, he has a Stinger Blaster that can simply be plugged into his hand, without the need to replace his arm. The blaster can be stored on the back of his robot or car mode. Because of the physical space needed to store the arms in vehicle mode, Bumblebee has a thin waist (with a front stomach panel to compensate) when viewed from the side. Though not depicted at right, his door-wings can be tilted upward to more accurately replicate their orientation in the movie. He comes with a cardboard backdrop display based on the tunnel interior where he scanned his new vehicle mode in ''Transformers''.

:This Bumblebee was reissued through Target in August 2024,<ref>[https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/ss-49-bumblebee-on-target-com.1266254/ SS-49 Bumblee Reissue at Target]</ref> with Pulse orders beginning in early September.

:Part of the ninth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, "Offroad Bumblebee" transforms into a licensed Willys MB Jeep from the opening of ''Bumblebee''. He includes a blaster accessory that can clip over his right arm and onto his backpack for storage, as well as under the jeep mode. An alternate storage method is to fit it into a gap in his back; this way is still secure and avoids chipping the painted jeep hood. The cardboard backdrop display depicts his battle with [[Blitzwing (BB)|Blitzwing]].

:Despite the accuracy of most of the mold, the sculpt of the shoulders and thighs are for some reason based on those of the [[#SS18|VW Beetle mold]] instead of the film's Jeep design.

:This Bumblebee is capable of using the blade included with the VW Beetle mold and the more accurately shaped one from the later [[#SS100|''Rise of the Beasts'' mold]], as they all use the same arm ports.

:As was undeniably inevitable, ''Studio Series'' "B-127" is a retool/redeco of [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Studio Series|Cliffjumper]], the mold itself being a retool of the above Offroad Bumblebee mold. This figure is based on Bumblebee's Cybertronian form in the ''Bumblebee'' film, transforming into a yellow Cybertronian car. The arms, thighs, and pelvis are inaccurate to this version of the character as they are reused from Offroad Bumblebee, not to mention the lack of yellow paint on the shoulders and thighs. He features a battle mask head that can be swapped with Offroad Bee's unmasked head, though the yellow plastics between the two are slightly different shades.

:He comes with a redeco of the Gatling gun accessory with silver and gunmetal paint and a cardboard backdrop display depicting a war-torn Cybertron as it appears in the beginning of the film. The blaster stores under the canopy in alt mode and simply drops into a gap in the robot mode's backpack.

:Part of the thirteenth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, this Bumblebee is a general retail re-release of the ''[[Buzzworthy Bumblebee]]'' toy [[#BW74|below]] (though in all fairness, it's very likely this version was supposed to come out ''first'' had it not been for the sudden addition of the '86 figures to the ''Studio Series'' lineup). This figure, like his Buzzworthy release, is a slight recolor and remold of the above ''Studio Series'' 49 Bumblebee, with new wheels and front section of the car to reflect his 2010 Camaro Concept, a slightly resculpted blaster, and includes a static Sam Witwicky figurine. This version sports a more accurate orange-yellow color and new racing stripes, but also uses less accurate light gray plastic and silver paint applications, and has no paint on his feet. He is also conspicuously lacking black paint apps on the sides of his bumper, though this is more accurate to his robot mode. The box and cardboard backdrop depicting [[Operation: Firestorm]] are changed to the normal ''Studio Series'' graphics as opposed to ''Buzzworthy Bumblebee''. The box art reuses an old image of Bumblebee with his shoulder cannons, which are not included with this release.

:''Studio Series'' "N.E.S.T. Bumblebee" is a desaturated gray and silver redeco of the above [[#SS57|Offroad Bumblebee]], with a nameless repack of the Sam Witwicky figure originally included with [[#BW74|74BB ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Bumblebee]], which was meant to depict [[NEST]] personnel (dubbed "Officer Walken" by designer [[Mark Maher]]). Bumblebee also features clear green headlights and windows, and the Universal Studios version of the NEST/Autobot emblem on his hood. Though not based on the films, his color scheme of gray with subtle green highlights and an organization badge coincidentally evokes the [[#Daredevil|''Dark of the Moon'' Autobot Daredevil Squad Bumblebee]]. Maher envisioned this figure as being a drone built by NEST, but this is not reflected in the final product description.

:The seemingly odd choice for this figure's coloration is explained by the fact that it was originally intended for [[Transformers: Universal Studios|Universal Studios]]'s ''[[Transformers: The Ride – 3D]]'', just like "[[Megatron (Movie)/toys#SSUniversal|As Seen In Parks Megatron]]", but due to the global {{w|COVID-19 pandemic}}, [[Universal]] had to temporarily close its theme parks. Looking for another outlet to release the two figures instead of waiting for the pandemic to be over, Hasbro made them both available as "shared exclusives" between several online retailers in the US, such as [[Hasbro Pulse]], [[BigBadToyStore]], or [[Entertainment Earth]]. While it was too late to completely redesign Megatron's packaging, N.E.S.T. Bumblebee was still in an early enough stage of development that Hasbro could change the packaging design and brand him as part of the ''[[Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee]]'' film, despite never sporting that color scheme in the film itself.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=That was handled by another designer, but it was intended to released as a universal parks aligned Nest vehicle to go along with their in park experience which is based on NEST not Sector 7. But I can understand the confusion, when it is a vehicle form that was used by Sector 7 in the BB film.|link=https://www.instagram.com/p/CcJ-uY3siwM/c/18135768532251958/r/17889173801623003/|name=Sam Smith|site=Instagram|year=2022|month=04|day=10}}</ref> At one point the figure was considered for a ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' release, with one [https://media.entertainmentearth.com/assets/images/b6bc6e82c7ba4a5db9f2679edef76c5bxl.jpg promotional image] retaining that branding.

:The official promotional render of the figure's packaging humorously misspells Bumblebee's name as '''Bumblbebee'''. It's only been ''37 years'', guys. (It's spelled correctly on the actual packaging.)

:Part of the seventeenth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, Bumblebee is now based on his ''Dark of the Moon'' appearance. He's a significant, if subtle, retool of the [[#SS49|''Studio Series'' 49 mold]], featuring all new parts for his alt mode, except for the clear parts, roof, and door hinges, to accurately replicate his 2011 Camaro SS mode (and finally making the antenna on the roof accurate). In robot mode, he features a new armored faux chest and a slightly modified unmasked headsculpt, though it is lacking the usual Autobot symbol tampograph. He is missing the panels on top of his shoulders (ironically, they were inaccurately added to the [[#Studio Series|1977 Camaro mold]]) and the smaller wings are still made of his windows instead of the spoiler. He is also lacking paint on his feet, parts of his shoulders, and the rear vehicle stripes, in exchange for paint apps on his bumpers, roof, and chest. This is the first version of the mold to correctly leave the tops of the door windows unpainted. Bumblebee comes with yet another slightly resculpted Stinger Blaster, which can be handheld and stores on his back or on the rear of the car.

:Like the other ''Studio Series'' toys, the interior of the package forms a display backdrop, depicting the Battle of Chicago. Hasbro stock images and CG renders forgot to fold down his secondary wings, while the former also has his chest mistransformed. The box art actually depicts Bumblebee in his ''Revenge of the Fallen'' design, though it was a new render used to promote ''Dark of the Moon''.

:Bumblebee and his wavemates were revealed on [[May 10]], 2022, with preorders coming up the same day. Unusually for a modern ''Generations'' release, Bumblebee was revealed by [[TakaraTomy]] before [[Hasbro]], which usually unveils upcoming toys before or simultaneously with TakaraTomy.

**''Accessories'': Stinger Blaster, "Autobots Arrival" reversible backdrop

:"15th Anniversary" Bumblebee is a redeco/retool of the ''Studio Series'' 49 figure, featuring altered paint applications and plastic color changes. He utilizes the unmasked head from the above ''Dark of the Moon'' version, this time with the Autobot tampograph added, as well as the racing stripes from the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' version. On this version, the black plastic has been replaced with light gray, the yellow and dark gray plastics are lighter, and the clear plastic is a much darker translucent black. The gunmetal paint operations and headlights are now silver. Notably, paint applications were removed from his feet, faux chest, arm guards, and most of his shoulders.

:Some owners have noted that this version has much looser joints, especially in the legs, possibly from [[Mold#Deterioration|mold degradation]].

:This figure comes in an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive 5-pack alongside redecoes of ''Studio Series'' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Optimus Prime]], [[Ironhide (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Ironhide]], [[Ratchet (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Ratchet]] and [[Jazz (Movie)#SS15thAnniversary|Jazz]], released to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the first live-action [[Transformers (film)|''Transformers'' film]]. The pack comes with a unique reversible backdrop depicting the alley where the Autobots first met Sam on one side and the exterior of Sam's house on the other. Like the ''Dark of the Moon'' version, stock photos and renders for this Bumblebee leave the secondary wings untransformed.

:The 100th numbered release in ''Studio Series'', this Deluxe Bumblebee is based on his appearance in ''[[Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (film)|Transformers: Rise of the Beasts]]'', transforming into a licensed 1977 Camaro with off-road modifications. He has black stripes on the roof that are inaccurate to the movie and is missing the Autobot symbol on his forehead. In a rare move, this toy features separate clear pieces for the windows.

:He comes with his Stinger Blaster and an arm blade. The blaster clips over his right hand. The unpainted arm blade attaches to either arm and is compatible with past ''Studio Series [[#SS18|Bumblebee]]'' [[#SS57|movie]] [[#SS70|Bees]]. Both accessories can store on his wings in robot mode. In car mode, the sword stores underneath while the blaster attaches to the rear. His backdrop depicts the volcanic final battle. His instructions have a small error, it shows folding the light segments up for transformation, which is their robot mode position. They should be folded all the way down, and will then click to horizontal when you push the grill into place.

:According to Sam Smith, the blade was originally intended for an "alternate release" before being packed in with this one. The blade ultimately didn't appear in the movie itself, where Bee dual-wields blasters instead. The included blaster can be held in his left hand, albeit upside down and exposing the top of the hand. Ironically, the blaster is cast in yellow plastic painted over in gray, whereas it was still mostly yellow in the film. Though perhaps this is a moot point as this toy's blaster is still based on its ''Bumblebee'' design anyway.

:A [[variant]] of this Bumblebee was found with a more completely painted face in a darker silver, though this means his yellow cheeks have been inaccurately painted over as well. This variant became more common in later cases of the figure. The repack in Wave 22 no longer uses plastic-free packaging.

:The packaging is decorated with artwork depicting the location in Chicago where Bee was nearly executed. The box art once again depicts his ''Revenge of the Fallen'' design rather than his ''Dark of the Moon'' one.

While he still has the inaccurate door wings, they can now swivel down to be somewhat hidden from view. The retooling also results in the rear side windows being painted and the unfortunate removal of his waist rotation.

:He comes with new gatling gun and arm blade accessories closer to their final designs. The gun plugs in his right hand like recent ''Studio Series'' Bumblebees instead of swapping with the arm like on the original mold. The blade can be used on either arm, but this time is not compatible with the arm ports on the previous ''Bumblebee'' Bumblebees and vice versa.

:Released as part of ''Bumblebee'' Energon Igniter's Speed Series line, this Bumblebee is a Legends/Legion-sized mold that transforms from robot into a licensed Volkswagen Beetle in just a few steps, and he features 3 mm compatible hands. Bumblebee can also be attached to the Energon Igniters core, and due to the toy being lightweight, it can propel his vehicle mode forward very quickly. As the port is 5 mm compatible, Bumblebee can mount with other smaller weapons with the same post size, making him an efficient weapon-towing vehicle.

Apart from the sculpted Volkswagen symbol on his front hood, Bumblebee doesn't have any single Autobot insignia tampographed or sculpted on.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Speed Series, 2018)

:Based on Bumblebee's appearance in the 2007 movie and the pre-credits scene in the ''Bumblebee'' movie, this Speed Series Bumblebee now transforms into a 1977 Chevrolet Camaro. The figure's proportions and sculpted detail are significantly improved compared to his [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Legends Class toys|first Legends Class figure]], though the new transformation leaves him with a faux chest and no trademark door-wings. His vehicle mode is largely unpainted, save for a single black paint app for the windshield and hood stripes. The black unpaintable patches on the car roof evoke roof stripes... even though this vehicle mode never ''had'' that detailing. He also features pinned wheels instead of the simple-assembly ones. In a surprisingly near-unnoticeable detail, the Autobot Insignia is sculpted on his fake chest. He shares a similar transformation scheme with ''Robots in Disguise (2015)'' Legion Class [[Sideswipe (RID)#Legion Class|Sideswipe]].

:Due to minor [[Design flaw#Clipping issues|clipping issues]] and potentially a case of [[Design flaw#Inferior glue|inferior glue]], pulling out his arms/vehicle headlights while converting into robot mode with excessive force can snap his 3 mm hands from his arms. Thankfully, as the hands are separate pieces, you can glue them back on with relative ease. It is unknown how many copies suffer from this flaw. Also, stock photos of his robot mode depict his eyes being unpainted.

:Released as part of the individually packed ''Bumblebee'' Energon Igniters Power Series, this Bumblebee is a Scout-sized mold that transforms from a robot based on his appearance in the 2007 movie into a 1977 Camaro in just a few steps. He also features a [[5 mm port|5 mm-compatible]] left hand, flip-out blaster and missile rack on both sides of his vehicle rear, a molded plasma cannon on his right hand, and a battle mask on his head. The cannon barrel on his right arm functions as a 3 mm port, allowing for the attachment of certain accessories to it. Bumblebee can also be attached to the Energon Igniters core to zip his vehicle mode forward. There is also a 5 mm port on the vehicle mode hood.

:His articulation in robot mode is rather sparse, limited mostly to his elbows.

==Notes==
*A weapon considered for Bumblebee was a pair of arm-mounted electrical [[Stinger (weapon)|stingers]]. The Bumblebee Camaro '09 toy's blade weapon might have been influenced by this early concept.
*[[Aaron Archer]] mentioned that when Hasbro received pictures of numerous toys of Bumblebee [[shelfwarmer|shelf-warming]], they finally realized that they had indeed gone overboard with his toys. Archer suggested a need for a certain amount of yellow-colored toys in each wave, hence the large amount of Bumblebees released per wave.

'''[[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]''' is the star of a [[Live-action film series|multibillion-dollar film franchise]], and as such has an ungodly amount of toys and memorabilia!

Seriously, he's probably got more than [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Optimus Prime]] by now.

He is one of two characters (the other being [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys|Optimus Prime]]) to have at least one toy in every size class.

[[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Notes|Even ''Hasbro'' admits that the amount of toys 'Bee has is ridiculous.]]

*'''Bumblebee''' (Legends Class, 2007)
**''TakaraTomy name:'' '''EZ Collection Bumblebee'''
{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: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 applications. Due to his simplified transformation, his hands are exposed on the vehicle bumper, and due to how the arms are molded, the headlights make the robot mode appear to be wielding a pair of guns. 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; the racing stripes just extend over it.

:The toy was also released in two different ways in Japan: the Hasbro version was initially released as a giveaway for the customers who purchased the Movie toys worth 3000 yen in the Transformers First Impact 0602 event held in Ikebukuro Toys"R"Us store at midnight [[June 2]]nd, with the package completely unchanged with the exception of the sticker covering the back to identify that this was a giveaway. The toy was also later released as part of the blind-packed EZ Collection lineup, distributed via TakaraTomy's subsidiary Subarudo.

:He was later redecoed into [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Legends Class toys|Cliffjumper]].

:A Japanese-exclusive version of the Legends Bumblebee toy, Bumblebee Scanning Version (バンブルビー　スキャニング Ver.) uses transparent plastics for his yellow parts. He was available as a freebie for the September 2007 issue of the ''Hyper Hobby'' magazine. The toy itself is almost entirely unpainted, save for some metallic blue for his eyes, and silver for his face and for the tampographed Autobot symbol on his chest.

:At least some unsold units (often with (or without) the box and without the magazine) were available in some Hobby Shop dealers in Asia. Fortunately, they're sold at a similar price to current Legion Class figures.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Classic Camaro, 2007)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''MA-03'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[June 2]], 2007
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles, left and right spring-loaded missile launchers
{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro), [[Alex Kubalsky]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Part of the second wave of [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|''Transformers'']] Deluxe Class figures, the first Deluxe Class version of Bumblebee transforms into a yellow {{w|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 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 Technology|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 and you'll be transforming his front car hood manually. The retooled Automorph gimmick would be used for all subsequent versions of the mold, including a small number of Japanese releases, 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.

:One of the more unfortunate results of the car hood's automorph feature, leaves the front of the car form not staying together properly over time. While it may not happen to every release of the figure, it's definitely something to keep an eye out for.

: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 with metallic blue paint. The [[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 original Hasbro mold (complete with opaque windows) also saw release in Japan 10 years later, as part of an Amazon Japan exclusive 3-pack (see below).

:The packaging used for the Japanese release is the same as for the Hasbro version, with the exception of additional stickers identifying it as a Japanese market release.

:The toy appears to be partially based on an early character study of Bumblebee by [[Don Figueroa]], particularly his feet.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=A VERY early character study of BB for the first #Transformers movie.|link=https://twitter.com/SketchyFig/status/1524542496847458304|name=Don Figueroa|site:Twitter|year=2022|month=May|day=12}}</ref>

*'''Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter''' (Deluxe two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles, left and right spring-loaded missile launchers

:This battle pack contains the 1976 Camaro Deluxe Class Bumblebee and the Deluxe Class [[Barricade (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys|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 the 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 [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|toy drought]] following the movie's record-smashing opening.

*'''Bumblebee Limited Metallic Color Version''' (Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles, left and right spring-loaded missile launchers

:A redeco of the Japanese version of the Classic Camaro Bumblebee sculpt, Bumblebee Limited Metallic Color Version (バンブルビー限定メタリックカラー Ver., ''Bumblebee Gentei Metallic Color Ver.'') was exclusively available with the purchase of a ticket for the movie in Japanese Lawson stores. It retained the clear blue windows and missiles of the standard Japanese release, but it is unclear if this release used the uneven Automorph gimmick from the second run. Unlike most of his Classic Camaro mold mates, this Bumblebee is practically spotless.

*'''Towed to Safety''' (Deluxe two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles, left and right spring-loaded missile launchers

:This set features an unaltered Deluxe Class [[Longarm (Movie)#TowedToSafety|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>

:This pack has only been confirmed to have been released in the United Kingdom.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''TakaraTomy name'': '''New Bumblebee'''
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''MA-10'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[August 9]], 2007
**''Accessories:'' [[Plasma cannon]]
{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro), [[Alex Kubalsky]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Released in the fourth wave of Deluxes, the second Deluxe Class Bumblebee toy shares no parts with the previous version and transforms into the {{w|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 Technology|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. Depending on how tight the shoulder ball joints are, posing his arms can be troublesome as they're jointed with the front wheel/car doors/wings. If the converting Plasma Cannon is removed from his vehicle form, the spring-loaded windows may become slightly dislodged unless you press both sides of the vehicle rear to counter this.

:Depending on the individual quality control, his pair of yellow shoulder panels tend to pop off occasionally. Care should be taken while transforming the front clear window piece: At least one of the protruding panels can snap off if not done carefully.

: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. His robot mode stock photo is mistransformed; the chest hood blocks can be flipped up for better accuracy. This mistransformation is common to all of his redecoes/retools below.

:A running change version of this sculpt adds sculpted pupils to Bumblebee's eyes. A ''second'' running change adds tabs to the hip panels, which makes the [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] hold together better.<ref name="conceptvariant">[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 sculpt.

:This sculpt was also used to make "Allspark Power" [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Deluxe Class toys|Cliffjumper]].

*'''Evolution of a Hero''' (Target exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles, left and right spring-loaded missile launchers, 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 sculpt.

:This two-pack was available as a Target exclusive in the USA, as a Zellers exclusive in Canada (in English-only packaging), as a Tesco exclusive in the United Kingdom and Ireland, and as an exclusive to stores that were members of either the Idee + Spiel or Vedes trade associations (which were cooperating at the time) in Germany. All international versions came in English-only US-style packaging, but lacked the "Only at Target" sticker.

**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

:Stealth Bumblebee is an extensive redeco and minor retool of the Deluxe Class Concept 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.

:Downloadable content for the [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (Xbox 360/PS3/PC)|Xbox 360/PS3 version of the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' game]] features this deco as an alternate skin for Bumblebee.

:This [[redeco]] of Stealth Bumblebee (featuring the "battle mask" head) features a similar deco as the Screen Battles version of the Concept Camaro sculpt in terms of plastic colours. However, as part of the "[[Premium Series]]", all of his outer car body panels have been coated in a metallic yellow paint job, and he features several very intricate additional [[paint operation]]s such as the rear [[license plate]] in vehicle mode (in addition to the one on the robot mode belly), a silver gas cap, red turn signals, gray inner shins, gold front and rear Chevrolet logos, silver details on the shoulder pieces, a black rear bumper and additional black pinstripes for the racing stripes. Meanwhile, the Autobot symbol on his forehead is basically a painted red square.

**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''SB-04'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

:A more [[show-accuracy|screen-accurate]] [[redeco]] of Camaro Concept Deluxe Class Bumblebee, with all of the black plastic and paint operations (sans the racing stripes and the grille mesh) changed to gray. In addition, the translucent parts are now an ever-so-slightly greener shade of blue. The only other change is the addition of a new [[tampograph]]ed red Autobot symbol on his forehead. Unfortunately, his racing stripes aren't added with black border pinstripes.

:This ''Screen Battles'' pack (or "Battle Scenes" in Europe) also includes non-[[articulation|poseable]] [[Slug figure|figurines]] of [[Sector Seven]] agent [[Seymour 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,<ref name="checklist">[http://web.archive.org/web/20080920112933/http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/default.cfm?page=Collectors/Checklist Hasbro checklist] featuring Screen Battles sets with additional extras</ref> this pack was originally supposed to feature "ice soldiers" (plural), in addition to an "S7 agent" and an "S7 soldier". Apparently, the 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]], which was supposed to contain ''four'' soldier figures according to the same Hasbro checklist<ref name="checklist"/>).

:This ''Screen Battles'' pack (or "Battle Scenes" in Europe) comes with an altered [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] toy and a posable, non-transforming, battle-damaged Bumblebee. Despite being in the same scale, this figurine utilizes none of the parts of the ''Robot Replicas'' toy. This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the battle in Mission City.

:The Bumblebee figure oddly does not feature the character's distinctive car door "wings" on his back. However, keen [[customizing|customizers]] 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,<ref name="checklist"/> this seems indeed very plausible.)

*'''Ultimate Bumblebee''' (Ultimate Class, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Missile

:The first Ultimate Class toy, this version of Bumblebee is similar in size to Supreme Class figures and transforms into a large 2009 concept Camaro. The toy features [[motorized movement|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. 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.

{{toydesigner|[[Kōjin Ōno]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:[[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 mis-transformed 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.

Other deco differences include the crotch being painted silver, and the details on the majority of the body are now replaced with a greener shade of grey, and the turquoise unpaintable joints in now molded in lighter teal. In addition, the left forearm & his head (due to being molded in the same light brown-ish grey) is also painted yellow.

**''Accessories:'' Display stand, set of Camaro mode armor, set of protoform armor, open-palmed hands
{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: [[Trans-scan]]ning 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 metallic orange plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be transform into his meteor-like "entry mode". This mode 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 many armor pieces that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a licensed Camaro concept. Compared to the overly simple transformation of the protoform mode, his car mode's transformation can be described as an abominable, unintuitive, parts-massaging ''mess''.

: 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.

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).

**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''EZ-03'''
{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

:''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 [[size class|price point]]).

:The [[:File:ROTF Legends Bumblebee HTS.jpg|second batch of stock photos of the toy]], which depict a [[prototype|(pre-)production sample]], show it in a much brighter shade of yellow plastic than it was released as. It's possible that this was simply the result of an excessive alteration of the hue settings during the digital enhancement of those photos, though.

:There are a few problems on the toy's vehicle mode: Probably due to tolerances, there are difficulties for perfectly aligning the wings/side windows with the legs/rear windows during transformation, though several samples does not seem to have this issue. In terms of deco, Bumblebee's face paint quality varies from figure-to-figure: Due to how the eyes are painted to emulate the mechanical optics; the central blue "eyeball" (especially the left one) is ''slightly'' lopsided. The forehead is often messily painted.

:In Malaysia, this toy is also one of the four Legends Classes to be released as promotional merchandise for the Petronas Gas Station. He can be obtained starting from the 26th of June (2 days are the movie's premiere), via RM30 ($7.04) worth of gas or RM15 ($3.52) worth of foods and items in the Mesra Shop.

:This mold was used as the basis for the non-toy character [[Saitama Prime]].

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe, 2009)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''RA-03'''
**''Accessories:'' Pulse Missile

:Released as part of a "preview" [[wave]] of the ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Deluxe Class assortment alongside [[Soundwave (ROTF)/toys|Soundwave]], Bumblebee is a relatively major retool of the Camaro Concept Bumblebee mold, featuring a new vehicle front end, hood and wheels to reflect the changes to the prop vehicle used in the movie; and in robot mode has a new, more accurate head sculpt... that just so happens to have some very creepy painted eyes but still, it's accurate nonetheless. Also, the paint on the door knobs, the gas lid, and the sculpted "Camaro" is omitted.

:His right arm has also been replaced by an all-new sculpt which substitutes the hand and the hand-held converting plasma cannon/blade weapon from the previous version for a built-in plasma cannon with a spring-loaded firing gimmick for the included missile. If one wishes to use the normal right arm, one must pop off the plasma cannon arm and replace it with the normal forearm from the Screen Battles figure (the only one with the accurate gray color), though the window must be replaced with the same translucent blue piece by unscrewing it.

:The instructions still depict him having the head from the 2007 Concept Camaro mold. Both the prototype and stock photos do not have his waist armor rotated into position in robot mode, while the later stock photo does not show the chest pieces being folded up. Due to the omission of the converting Plasma Cannon that holds the rear windows in position, the pieces may not align properly if the lower thighs/vehicle rear is not transformed properly during the robot-to-vehicle conversion.

:The initial production run included a missile that was slightly too long for the slot inside the arm, so it either has to be slightly cut down to fit or the cannon must be swiveled outwards to accommodate the missile. This was fixed by a [[variant|running change]] that saw the missile slightly shortened.<ref name="missile1">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/revenge-of-the-fallen/bumblebee/1757/ Seibertron.com gallery of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Preview" Bumblebee], depicting the early version with a slightly too long missile.</ref><ref name="missile2">[http://www.bwtf.com/toyreviews/rotf/deluxe/bumblebee/ BWTF review of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Preview" Bumblebee], depicting the later version with a missile that fits in without a problem.</ref><ref name="missile3">[http://snakas.web.fc2.com/09movie/ra03bumblebee.html Autobase Aichi gallery of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Preview" Bumblebee], featuring a comparison of both versions of the missile.</ref> The corrected version was also released in other markets such as Japan and Europe.

:This heavy retool of Bumblebee changes the entire upper half of the robot mode, and thus half of the car, to newly designed parts (essentially, only the legs are recycled from ''Movie'' Concept Camaro Bumblebee and the previous ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Bumblebee; everything else is an entirely new sculpt), including more articulated arms with open palms, less obstructive vehicle [[kibble]], a differently transforming chest, and two flip-out (non-firing) missile launcher racks behind his head. Interestingly, his arms can be detached and easily popped onto the original mold, resulting in a more [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] robot mode, though this sacrifices transformation. This extensive retooling results in a car interior with seats and a crude dashboard, but the windows are so opaque that these new details can't easily be seen. A [[variant]] with clear blue windows was released in later shipments.<ref name="cannonbee">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/revenge-of-the-fallen/cannon-bumblebee/1855/2/92/ Comparison between both versions of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Cannon Bumblebee.]</ref>

:A minor redeco and retool Cannon Bumblebee that replaces the head sculpt with the much smaller battle mask head previously used by Stealth Bumblebee and Premium Bumblebee from the 2007 movie line. The base plastic colors and matching paint colors are virtually identical to those of Cannon Bumblebee, as are the [[Paint operation|paint masks]] for the most part. Aside from the head, the only differences are different paint choices in the abdominal section (the license plate, the sculpted cylinders above the license plate and the crotch plate below the gas cap), the front sides of the shoulder cannons (painted black on Cannon Bumblebee, painted red on Battlefield Bumblebee) and a different size and placement for the [[tampograph]]ed Autobot [[insignia|logo]] (on the side of Cannon Bumblebee's left shoulder cannon panel, on the front end of Battlefield Bumblebee's vehicle mode hood/robot mode chest).

:Human Alliance Bumblebee comes with a posable figure of [[Sam Witwicky]] that can fit inside in Bumblebee's vehicle mode (plugging into his seat via a small hole in his back) and drive him. In robot mode, Bumblebee's vehicle mode seats end up on his arms, and Sam can sit in either of them; the seat on Bumblebee's right has a headrest that can fold down to look slightly less conspicuous in robot mode, while the seat on Bumblebee's left arm features a pair of cannons which flip over Sam's shoulders, offering him some offensive hardware to protect his rather precarious position. These cannons can also be flipped down further to form some over-the-shoulder restraints. Sam can also stand on a platform that flips out from the small of Bumblebee's back (again, via peg-holes on his feet), manning a small non-firing cannon that flips out over Bumblebee's right shoulder. Finally, Bumblebee's left palm also contains a peg, meaning Sam can securely stand or sit in his big buddy's hand. Bumblebee himself features a spring-loaded cannon for his right arm, which can fire the two missiles the figure comes with, a flip-out double-barreled silver cannon that points over his head, and a functional flip-down battle mask. Much like the rest of his Human Alliance brethren, Bumblebee is roughly the same size as an ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' toy, being slightly taller than ''Alternators'' [[Mirage (G1)|Mirage]] in robot mode.

:[[File:Human Alliance Bumblebee Prototype.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|left|Modders, vindicated by the prototype.]]
:There is a significant [[misassembly]] issue with Bumblebee: according to TakaraTomy's images of the resin [[prototype]] as well as Bumblebee's CG design, the retail toy's legs are on the wrong sides of his body, so the details on his legs are inverted. Since the instructions reflect this assembly, it's possible that this was [[design change|done on purpose]] because, with the toy in its originally intended assembly, the waist section could be rather difficult to transform for children. The toy's originally intended assembly can still be [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/243649-human-alliance-bumblebee-leg-mod.html easily achieved by disassembling his crotch and reassembling the legs backwards.] Once this is complete, Bumblebee will look the way he was intended to look while adding some minor extra steps during transformation.

:Plonk him down. Lift him up. Plonk him down. Lift him up. This addictive toy transforms automatically when stood up (vehicle to robot), or placed on his back (robot to vehicle). A switch underneath his feet or his car mode releases the transformation — so the toy can be played with in relatively stable modes if held in the air, or just rolling along the ground.

:Because gravity is the powering force in the transformation there's no motors to wear out or batteries to use up when playing with the toy. Which is good, because you will be transforming him no less than nine million times.

:Bumblebee features dumpy proportions and low movie accuracy (no door wings here), forced upon the toy to accommodate the [[Gravity Bot]]s transformation gimmick. His robot mode has no articulation, not even head. But at least he has big feet! Or legs... or whatever the heck they are. Stump? At least he has a big stump.

:''Revenge of the Fallen'' ''[[Robot Replicas|Robot Replica]]'' Bumblebee is an all-new sculpt with (arguably) better proportions and more sculpted detail than first movie ''Robot Replica'' Bumblebee. ("Arguably" because he has a tiny head.) Unlike the first movie ''Robot Replica'' Bumblebee, he comes with a permanent cannon arm without a replacement hand arm. His [[license plate]] is also considerably smaller than that of the first movie ''Robot Replica'' Bumblebee and features no detail aside from a red line evocative of a California license plate.

:Bizarrely, his chest still features detail from the front end of the first movie Bumblebee's Concept (standard model) Camaro [[alternate mode]] (notably the fog lights) as compared to the ZL1 model's front end used for most ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Bumblebee toys.

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

: ''[[Transformers (2010 toyline)|Hunt for the Decepticons]]'' Bumblebee features a much more accurate and articulated sculpt in robot mode compared to previous versions of Deluxe class Camaro Concept versions of the character, with the [[transformation scheme]] taking many cues from ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Human Alliance Bumblebee, scaled down to Deluxe size, while using an [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]] design for the leg transformation directly based on the original Deluxe Class Concept Camaro Bumblebee.

: His right forearm can transform into his signature plasma cannon, though due to how the parts were distributed on the plastic sprues during production, the cannon barrel is yellow rather than grey. The left arm-guard has a flip-out axe made of translucent blue plastic, representing the axe weapon Bumblebee uses in the [[Revenge of the Fallen (video games)|''Revenge of the Fallen'' video games]], which itself may have been based upon the electrical [[Stinger (weapon)|stinger]] that was once considered as a melee weapon for Bumblebee in the first movie. The axe is spring-loaded, activated by a button on his arm-guard. This version of Movie Bumblebee also features a flip-down battle mask, very similar in function to Human Alliance Bumblebee.

: His head has a tendency to pop off during transformation. The space at the front of the collar would give him ''just'' enough clearance to pass his head through... if it was not for the small plastic flap (the one with the [[Autobot]] symbol) on his chest, which tends to push and squeeze the head out enough that the tension causes the head to pop and fly out from his ball-jointed neck.

: Stock photos show that the axe was originally made in such a way that the blade was mounted on a rod and could be rotated downwards, but this was changed entirely for unknown reasons (possibly fragility). As a result, the blade is mounted upside-down.

: The Japanese ''[[Autobot Alliance]]'' release features marginally darker yellow plastic and paint.

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

: Battle Ops Bumblebee is a larger-than-contemporary-Leader-Class figure, and features both "guardian" and "warrior" robot modes, which changes weapons and sound effects. His head has a flip-down battle mask, and his right arm converts into a plasma cannon automatically when his arm is raised. The cannon arm has limited articulation due to the gimmick, but features a small translucent-blue hand which telescopes out of the cannon when not in use. He also is armed with two non-firing light-up shoulder/hood missile launchers which can be deployed in either mode; though not mentioned in the instructions, the missile launchers can be collapsed on the back in robot mode. Also, you have to remove the plastic ring attached on the right cannon hand before you use the toy.

: As revealed at the Hasbro designers panel at [[BotCon 2010]], an easter egg is hidden in Battle Ops Bumblebee's electronics: when in vehicle mode, pressing down on the front left end of the vehicle (or pushing the front left wheel up) thrice will play the first verse of the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original ''Transformers'']] [[theme song]], and three subsequent presses will play the second verse. Unfortunately, it only repeats the first two verses.

Additionally, the tip of his cannon is [[Vacuum metallizing|chromed]].

: He also comes with two "Great Value" toys: an unchanged Legends Class [[Mudflap (ROTF)#BattleOpsCostco|Mudflap]] figure, and a "Premium" vacuum-metallized gold redeco of Bumblebee's own ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends Class figure.

: Canada received both English and French versions of this release - bizarrely, the French release is available in places outside Quebec such as Vancouver and even Alberta.

{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece: Movie Series]]'' Bumblebee is a redeco of Battle Ops Bumblebee. Unlike the Hasbro version, he features a very extensive paint job, including chromed rims, and features no yellow plastic despite his appearance. Instead, all of his yellow parts are painted over gray plastic to make it as [[Show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] as possible. Among other notable plastic color changes, the [[TakaraTomy]] version features a clear colorless right hand (instead of translucent blue). The Hong Kong release of the toy features a shiny metallic gold finish instead.

: The box flap features the quote "''Angels will rain down like visitors from heaven!''" from the first movie.

: Beginning in March, ''Masterpiece'' Bumblebee was involved in two different [[campaign item|promotional giveaways]] in Japan. Bic Camera and Yodobashi Camera stores offered the [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]] [[Mini-Con|Micron]] [[Spoilsport#United|Spoilsport]] with the purchase of ''Masterpiece'' Bumblebee, while, [[Toys"R"Us]] offered the Targetmaster Micron [[Caliburst (G1)#United|Caliburst]] with purchase.

:After 7 years, the second ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece Movie Series]]'' Bumblebee is its own dedicated mold rather than a repaint and is also based upon his body from the first live-action film. Does it convert? Does it ever!

:As usual, he transforms from a roughly Voyager-sized robot that scales with the Generation 1 ''Masterpiece'' Autobot Cars. He, however, does NOT turn into a Concept Camaro seen in the first live-action movie, but rather the production model 2010 Camaro SS. His yellow is also inaccurate: The MPM is casted in Rally Yellow, and not the PBC-30 Sunrise that is used in the film. The latter inaccuracy is possibly due to licensing restrictions, as PBC-30 is not a factory option. His right hand can be replaced with a Stinger Blaster, which can be stored in the vehicle mode. He also features die-cast parts on his bottom legs & his feet.

:Some units feature misassembled waist tabs. Although stock photos shows his tire rims being painted silver, the actual product has tire rims painted in Chevy’s Midnight Silver, which was used as an optional paint for the 2010's Camaros.

:The Japanese release omits the paint applications on the eyes to allow for light piping, and it features a less dark shading on the blaster weapon. As with most TakaraTomy toys, It also uses black screws over unpainted screws.

:In the United States, Canada, Australia, and Hasbro's Asian markets, ''Masterpiece Movie Series'' Bumblebee was exclusively available from [[Toys"R"Us]], as was TakaraTomy's Japanese release. He was also initially released in the Transformers Atrium Fair in Takashimaya B2 Atrium located at Singapore, limited to 300 pieces. In Spain, meanwhile, he saw a wider release, being at least available via the Spanish subsidiaries of [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] and Carrefour, as well as the department store chain El Corte Inglés. It's currently unknown if he was also available in stores, or limited to online purchases. In Greece, he was officially available via at least one toy store chain, aptly named simply "Toys-Shop", but again might have been available online only.

{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (Hasbro)}}

:Part of the second wave of ''Dark of the Moon'' Cyberverse Legion Class toys, (Bolt) Bumblebee is a retool of the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends class Bumblebee with a new right hand that enables him to hold Cyberverse accessories and interact with Cyberverse playsets.

:Whereas the [[stock photography|stock photos]] depicted on the back of his packaging (which feature a hand-painted [[prototype]]) correctly show him with only a Cyberverse-compatible right hand and an unchanged left hand, the other set of stock photos (which feature a pre-production sample) depicts him with ''two'' retooled hands. Whereas the version with the new right hand was redecoed for several store-exclusive multi-packs, no version available in stores has featured the new ''left'' hand thus far.

:Although the toy is listed as "Bolt Bumblebee" on the official Hasbro website, the United States version and early releases of the [[multilingual packaging|European version]] simply use the name "Bumblebee" everywhere on the packaging, and the "Bolt" prefix was apparently only added as a [[variant|running change]] for later shipments of the European version.

:Exclusive to [[Target]], this Cyberverse Bumblebee is a redeco of Bolt Bumblebee. His right new hand enables him to hold his accompanying blaster (which originates from [[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]] [[Prowl (G1)/toys|Prowl]]/[[Mirage (G1)|Mirage]]).

{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (Hasbro)}}

:Part of the third wave of ''Dark of the Moon'' Cyberverse Legion Class toys, this toy is a [[black repaint|black]] redeco of his ''Dark of the Moon'' mold. His deco consists of the first two-thirds of his vehicle being cast in black, with painted yellow stripes on the hood and sides, and the rear third of his vehicle being an unpainted metallic yellow, giving the appearance of the stripes extending out from the back. His headlights and most of his windshields are painted a metallic blue, his crotch is painted silver, and he has a gold Autobot insignia on the tip of his hood.

:The yellow paint operations on the black plastic parts and the shade of yellow used for the unpainted yellow plastic parts clash so much that even [[Ben Yee]], who is usually ''very'' generous with his toy reviews, rated this redeco as sub-par.<ref name="stealthyee">[http://www.bwtf.com/toyreviews/dotm/legion/bumblebee-black/ BWTF review of ''Cyberverse'' Legion Class "Black" Bumblebee]</ref>

:While this toy is listed as Stealth Bumblebee on the Hasbro website and named as such on the [[multilingual packaging|European packaging]], the "Stealth" prefix did not appear on the American packaging for some time. A [[variant|running change]] remedied this, adding the prefix to the American packaging in later runs.

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

: Commemorating a hilarious and probably very expensive moment of stupidity on the ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon]]'' set wherein a {{w|Metropolitan Police Department|Metropolitan Police Department}} SUV was hit by a Bumblebee stunt car during filming, Bumblebee is a [[redeco]] of his Action Set toy (which uses his first ''Dark of the Moon'' Legion-Class figure) and is painted to hilariously have damage in the front of his vehicle mode. His [[Mobile Battle Bunker#CybertronianWarriors|Mobile Battle Bunker]] has been redecoed to be gray and had the jetpack slightly retooled.

: He was packaged in a Toys"R"Us-exclusive multi-pack with redecoed versions of [[Ironhide (Movie)/toys#CybertronianWarriors|Ironhide]], [[Crankcase (DOTM)#CybertronianWarriors|Crankcase]] (in a deco based on the aforementioned police SUV), and [[Barricade (Movie)/toys#CybertronianWarriors|Barricade]].

**''Accessories:'' MechTech Blaster/[[Plasma cannon|Plasma Cannon]]
{{toydesigner|[[Takio Ejima]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Deluxe Class figures, Bumblebee transforms into a customized 2011 Camaro Concept. Bumblebee comes with a [[MechTech]] weapon which is a "Blaster" weapon, which opens up into a larger "Plasma Cannon" when its lever is pulled, but it springs back into its original position once the lever is released. The MechTech weapon can be held in his hands, attach via [[5 mm post|5 mm pegholes]]/MechTech ports on his forearms, or plug in a "concealed" 5 mm peg hole on the vehicle mode's roof. Two extraneous 5 mm peg holes are also located on his vehicle mode hood flap and can be flipped up and used in robot mode to shoulder-mount weapons beside his head. Additionally, [[C joint]] bars are sculpted into Bumblebee's forearms. His pair of hands features poseable fingers (albeit 4+1), and it can be formed into a 5 mm compatible hand if adjusted properly.

:Bumblebee can form a semi-Stealth Force configuration by lifting up the rear half of his roof, exposing concealed cannons sculpted in translucent blue plastic. Also of note in vehicle mode is the sculpted Camaro SS badging near the doors, which doesn't appear on any other ''Dark of the Moon'' Bumblebee toy or the prop vehicles used for filming.

:Just like his CG robot model, his [[package art]] depicts his racing stripes being pinstripe-bordered despite his toy no longer having it. Whoops.

:Bumblebee is currently being sold in Universal theme parks in new packaging based on the ride. He is advertised as a Universal Studios Exclusive, molded in slightly different colors compared to his original widespread release, and also has some gold paint on his knees that the original did not have. This mold was also used to make ''Movie The Best'' [[Laserbeak (DOTM)#Movie The Best|Laserbeak]].

:Available in the third wave of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Deluxe Class figures, Nitro Bumblebee features booster engines, armor plating and other Stealth Force-like design elements sculpted onto his vehicle mode. Like the Leader Class toy, he features sculpted (but unpainted) "900 STRA" [[license plate]]s in both modes, making it the first time the license plate used for the car props from all three movies is used for a Deluxe Class toy.

:He comes with a MechTech Boost Engine, which converts into a Plasma Cannon when the lever is pulled, and although it is similar in function and appearance to [[Skids (ROTF)#Deluxe Class toys 3|Skids]]'s MechTech blaster, it is a new mold. He features five MechTech ports in vehicle mode: one on the hood, two of the roof and two behind his rear wheels. In robot mode, both of his arms have one MechTech port each, and the ports from vehicle mode can still be used.

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

:This [[Walmart]]-[[exclusive]] Bumblebee (also sold at Sainsbury's stores in the United Kingdom) is a redeco of the [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|2007 ''Transformers'']] Deluxe Class Concept Camaro Bumblebee, with the standard production model Chevrolet Camaro front end as compared to the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' ZL1 version and the first reuse of the 2007 mold, both hands and the hand-held [[plasma cannon]]/energy blade weapon. However, he ''does'' have the retooled shoulder panels that are held in place with screws (first introduced with ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Alliance Bumblebee).

:Bumblebee features many different ''Transformers'' [[insignia]]s from across different continuities, namely; [[:File:Ancient Autobot Symbol.png|Generation 1 Prehistory Autobot]], [[:File:Minicon symbol.png|Armada Mini-Con]], [[:File:Sumdac Systems.PNG|Animated Sumdac Systems]], [[:File:Playschool Go-Bots G.png|Playschool Go-Bot]], [[S.T.A.R.S.]], "FLY [[Omega Supreme (disambiguation)|Ω SUPREME]]", [[G.B.

:The [[stock photography|stock photos]] on the back of his packaging are quite strange, depicting a significantly different deco, with the primary color for his vehicle mode gradually fading from yellow to red towards the bottom, and parts of his abdomen sporting the same red color. In addition, his handheld weapon's blade sports a clear blue color. The final toy, by contrast, features no red at all, and his blade is cast in clear black plastic. Furthermore, the stock photos depict his eyes as bright blue, whereas the final toy's eyes are painted black. On top of that, the stock photos contradict ''each other'', with the photo of his robot mode depicting clear blue windows, whereas the photo of his vehicle mode depicts opaque ''black'' windows.

: Released in the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Leader Class figures, this version of Bumblebee is smaller than his previous Leader-sized incarnations and, ''technically'', is his first Leader-class toy. Along with the update to his Dark of the Moon form, this is also the first toy to feature a (sculpted) "900 STRA" [[license plate]] (the one used for the prop cars for all three movies). Being different in proportions to his other toys, this Bumblebee seems to have inspired his later "[[#NitroBee|Nitro Bumblebee]]" toy, having a much bulkier torso and smaller arms, with the entire hood pieces being deformed into his chest.

: The main gimmick is that he comes with a ''massive'' MechTech backpack, which hooks onto his back window/back, and is the sole electronic component of the toy. It resembles a [[jet pack|jet-pack]], and features missile pods and a cannon, all of which emit lights and sounds when pressed, and can be positioned for either robot or vehicle mode. Pressing the missile pod housings will emit orange lights and play the sound of a barrage of missiles being launched while pressing the cannon will prop up a targeting sight, emit green lights, and play the sound of the cannon deploying/charging and firing a powerful-sounding blast. The weapons can be deployed/retracted when the brown panel on the top-left of the backpack is slid, making the [[Transformation#The noise|transformation noise]] in the process (with an additional mechanical impact sound after deploying). There are a total of five MechTech ports and four [[C joint]] bars on the backpack, with a port and bar on each missile pod, a port on the side of the cannon barrel, a port on the sliding panel, a port on the top-center of the backpack, and a bar on top of each battery compartment.

: Bumblebee can also transform into his [[Stealth Force]] attack vehicle mode, wherein his hood portions split forward and open, his doors open and hinge up, his robot arms swing out from the sides to aim, his plasma cannon extends, and his backpack is attached and deployed, with dedicated pegs to help secure his doors, arms, and shoulders. Finally, like a few other Bumblebee toys, he also features a flip-down battle mask.

: Unfortunately, while Bumblebee has rotational leg [[articulation]], they're ''below'' the knees, limiting their usefulness. Even more unfortunately, while he's perfectly stable on his own, plugging in his backpack in robot mode will make him ''very'' back-heavy, resulting in significant balance issues and limitation of poseability due to his [[Ratchet (mechanism)|ratchet joint]]s not being strong enough to handle the additional weight on one side. Posing him to lean forwards or posing his legs further to his back may remedy this.

: His secondary stock photos are slightly mistransformed: his shoulder collars are not folded out. Ironically; this mistranformation ''also allows'' the head to move slightly freely.

{{toydesigner|[[Lenny Panzica]] (Hasbro)}}

:As with other Dark of the Moon Activators toys, this Bumblebee figure (released under the [[Robo Power]] subline) is a very simple one-step transformation toy. Transformation consists of positioning him on the large blue section to the rear of his vehicle mode and pressing down, causing his components to shift around and reveal his robot parts; from there, one just has to rotate out his arms. Transformation back to vehicle mode is done by reversing the steps.

:Bumblebee was packaged in vehicle mode on an open, bubble-less card and tied down with twist-ties around the body of his truck form so that he couldn't be transformed in package.

:[http://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/110058-question-robo-power-activators/ At least one report] has surfaced of a brand-new figure missing one of the locking tabs that work the spring-loaded transformation mechanism, leaving the figure unable to transform properly. Although most likely a one-off incident as no other cases are known to have happened, care should still be taken.

*'''Bumblebee''' (2011)
''Revving Robots'' Bumblebee is a toy that was designed for younger children and thus lacks transformation. Bumblebee has four points of articulation, the shoulders and hips. Pressing his Autobot symbol causes him to speak one of several prerecorded phrases that change actors mid sentence to invoke the sense that he was talking via his radio. Pushing up the blue shoulder pad activates his stinger blaster, causing it to spin and make blaster sounds. The toy was released alongside ''Revving Robots'' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]].

: The larger Bumblebee ''[[Kre-O]]'' kit is based on the [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee of the live-action films]], though with the face of the [[Bumblebee (G1)|Generation 1 character]] inside a movie-style helmet. He rebuilds into a sports car that can seat two [[Kreon]] figures, and has a spring-loaded missile launcher.

: He comes with three [[Kreon]]s; a Bumblebee based very much on [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Generation 1 Bumblebee]], [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Red Alert]], and an unnamed "Driver" with black hair and a gray shirt who we guess is meant to kinda sorta be a [[Sam Witwicky]]-like dude if you squint.

**''Accessories'': Blaster

:Available exclusively at the gift shop for "[[Transformers: The Ride – 3D]]" at [[Universal|Universal Studios]] theme parks, this set features a Bumblebee Kreon based on the first three live-action movies, aka "the version of Bumblebee that there's a giant costumed performer of at the park that guests can get their pictures taken with". After several years of only being available at the park proper, the 4-pack was eventually added to Universal's online store.

: In 2015(?), a new production run of the set was made using the revamped 2015-style Kreon bodies, among a few other small changes, including sharper tampographs with thinner linework. This set would later see slight production changes; the only notable change to Bee is that his tampographs have gone back to thicker lines and being a bit sloppier, something that happened to all of the figures in the set.

: In 2020, the set was revamped ''again'', removing Evac and replacing him with the [[N.E.S.T. Sentry]]. The other figures in the set are unchanged from their thicker-tampograph 2015-body versions.

: Available only at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores in the US, Canada, the UK and Germany, this two-pack contains a Deluxe Class Bumblebee based on the new form he acquires part way through the ''Age of Extinction'' film, transforming into a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro concept. He includes two 'fake kibble' hubcaps, which can be screen-accurately mounted on his back, removed and held as throwing star weapons, or store underneath his vehicle mode. Additionally, his right forearm features a flip-out cannon, and his head sports a flip down battle mask (which is inaccurate to the actual battle mask in the film). The car windows on his forearms can be flipped down to represent the missile launchers he uses in the movie. Bumblebee cannot transform into vehicle mode with his Shurikens pegged on his back.

: The two-pack also includes a 'Classic' Bumblebee [[redeco]]ed from the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Generations|Legends Class Bumblebee]], cast in a slightly lighter yellow with blue headlights and taillights and armed with a black and yellow redeco of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[Jolt (ROTF)#Deluxe Class toys 3|Deluxe Jolt]]'s [[MechTech]] weapon. In most regions, this pack was released ahead of the ''Age of Extinction'' Deluxe figure's single-carded release.

: The two-pack was one of the three Evolution 2-packs available as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in Japan, with no changes to the figures themselves. The box features Japanese translated versions of the English text on the front and a sticker on the back confirming that this was a Japanese release.

**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''AD08'''
{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (deco artist)}}

: A toy exclusive to Takara's 'Movie Advanced' line, this Bumblebee is a redeco of [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|''Transformers (2010)'']] Battle Blade Bumblebee. This toy combines with some unpainted yellow robot parts and has metallic yellow paint on most of his car shells/body parts...resulting in weird, two-tone yellow colors in robot mode. Other than this, the paint masks are ''completely identical'' to the original mold, with an exception of the flip-out cannon & his blade, which is chromed. Because of the gradual downsizing of deluxe figures after 2011, this Bumblebee was released as a Voyager Class figure despite its original release being a Deluxe Class figure.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Leader Class, 2014)

:Leader Class Bumblebee is a redeco of the ''Dark of the Moon'' Leader Class Mechtech Bumblebee figure, omitting the MechTech backpack for cost reasons, and features a deco pattern similar to his appearance in ''Age of Extinction''. And of course, as a redeco of the Leader Class toy, Bumblebee can attach to said backpack. He shipped in solid cases, not part of the regular ''Age of Extinction'' Leader assortment. The stock photo on his packaging is a color-swapped version of the original prototype photo, lacking the backpack.

:While Bumblebee was available at general retail in some countries like Malaysia, Singapore and Australia, he was a store [[exclusive]] in other markets such as the United States (at [[Costco]]), the United Kingdom (at [[Smyths]]), Canada (shared exclusive between Costco and Canadian Tire stores) and Germany (at Rossmann drug stores).

:This Bumblebee is a ''slight'' redeco of the second [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|''The Last Knight Premier Edition'' Deluxe Class figure]], with darker yellow plastic and paint seen in the first ''Movie The Best'' figure above. He also sports some tooling changes: Notably, the arm cannon is a different tooling that is the mirror opposite of the version available with the original release, and thus it is designed to attach to the ''right'' arm instead of the left one. Less notable is the addition of a [[C joint|3 mm peg]] to the right forearm to make it a mirror opposite of its left counterpart, allowing it to be attached to the back while the cannon is attached to the arm. Additionally, he comes with a new hammer accessory (hence the name) based on the hammer Bee used during his fight with Nemesis Prime in ''The Last Knight''. The Hammer can also be stored onto the rear hip, or onto Bumblebee's vehicle spoiler, mounted along with the Stinger Blaster. All the new pieces are made from the same tooling, resulting in slightly mismatched forearms, with the new right one made of gray plastic painted orange and silver while the left one is made of orange plastic with silver paint.

:[[Tiny Turbo Changers]] Bumblebee is a small, stumpy, soft-plastic [[blindpacking|blind-bagged]] mini-figure that changes from robot to a Concept Camaro 2016 with just a few simple steps. He features hands that are compatible with ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' weapons and other 3 mm post accessories. Like all Tiny Turbo Changers, his vehicle-mode tires do not spin, sorry.

:Despite bearing the Concept Camaro 2016-ish vehicle mode, his robot mode sculpt and paint applications resemble his appearance in ''Age of Extinction''.

:He and the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#TinyTurboChanger|Optimus Prime]] were available in the first two series of the line, with no noteworthy changes between releases – even Bumblebee's misassembled legs and their bag codes remain unchanged.

:Bumblebee was re-released in the second wave of the Premier Edition Deluxe line, and now features a black section on the car roof & the rear section of the vehicle shell. The easiest way to identify the variant is by looking at the bottom rear piece while the figure is in-package, as the black paint can be seen through the clear plastic. This variant also applies to the TakaraTomy release of the figure. Due to this, the initial variant became less common.

:On many copies of this toy, the pegs securing the feet come undone easily, making the feet floppy, while some parts like the "wings" are prone to becoming detached. Despite what the instructions say, the left arm should be pulled sideways out of the joint instead of down to prevent breakage of the connection. On several occasions, the only way to secure the feet's pegs is by pressing the pieces together firmly. (Make sure the pieces are properly adjusted.)

:For the 1977 Camaro Bumblebee figure, he uses the opaque windows from the Hasbro release and the fixed Automorph gimmick from the Towed to Safety and the Evolution of a Hero 2-packs. Paint operations on this Bumblebee are minimized compared to his original release, omitting the battle damage on the vehicle mode and some smaller details of his robot mode such as the blue stripes on his thighs and parts of his face. The Automorph button does not use the painted stripes from the Evolution of a Hero 2-pack.

:The 1967 Camaro Bumblebee figure keeps the paint layout of its original "High Octane" release, but features several plastic color differences: The yellow parts are changed from a darker, more orange-y tone to the same lighter shade of yellow plastic shared among all the figures in this set, with the yellow paint operations and tampographs in vehicle mode changed accordingly, all the charcoal-colored parts are replaced by black plastic, the missile (and all of the unpaintable plastic joints) is changed from black to yellow, the baby blue paint operations for the eyes are changed to a darker tone, and the fully transparent windows are now a slightly tinted translucent plastic.

:The 2017 Camaro Bumblebee figure also features smoky translucent plastic in his windows as opposed to the original's entirely transparent ones. The Hasbro stock photo for his robot mode still depicts him holding his arm cannon as a gun. This also applies to Takara's secondary stock photos. Speaking of Takara, his vehicle mode roof is also slightly mistransformed.

:The set also saw release as an Amazon Japan exclusive.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class, [[2018]])
**''Movie'': '''''Transformers'''''
**''Hasbro ID number'': '''01'''
**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''SS-01'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[April 28]], 2018
**''Accessories'': Detachable Stinger Blaster, "Police Chase" backdrop

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Studio Series]]'' Deluxe Class toys, Bumblebee transforms into a yellow 1977 Chevrolet Camaro based on his appearance in the first live-action ''Transformers'' movie in 22 steps. He recycles the engineering of [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|''The Last Knight Premier Edition'' Bumblebee]] with all new parts, and is slightly smaller than said mold to fit in the new ''Studio Series'' scale. As a consequence of borrowing sculpting from the ''Premier Edition'' figure, this version of Bumblebee has some inaccuracies, including the arrows on top of his head, the panels on top of his shoulders, and the design of his forearms and thighs. Bumblebee uses a [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|fake]] front grill on his robot mode chest, which the real grill slides over in vehicle mode. He also features rectangular holes on his lower front bumper, the rocker panels, the rear end of the front hood, and the lower valance, all meant for a [[#SS15|later release]].

:Bumblebee includes a cardboard backdrop display depicting his encounter with [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] and a Stinger Blaster based on the one from the ''Premier Edition'' figure, though mirrored to accurately attach to the right arm like the [[#MB18|''Movie The Best'' War Hammer Bumblebee]] toy. This version replaces the forearm using a hex peg instead of swapping at the bicep joint. The blaster/forearm stores behind the waist when not in use. The blaster can be mounted onto the rear bumper in vehicle mode.

:Depending on the individual sample's quality control, Bumblebee has some problems with parts (notably the rear section of the vehicle) refusing to lock together and continually detaching from their proper position thanks to some tolerance issues. His lack of pins on the car roof, combined with said quality control issues, make the transformation ''absolute hell'' if followed by the instructions. Thankfully, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bm921hDELGM ways] have been found to transform him to help remedy this problem. Also, be careful with the shin pieces as they can collide during transformation, scraping off the yellow paint.

:Bumblebee, along with the rest of Wave 1 Deluxes, was made available at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] following New York [[Toy Fair 2018]], two months ahead of the scheduled brick and mortar release. The second run of the toy features a running change that eventually amends the quality control issues that plagued the first run. The fixed version's date code is written as "80201". Sadly some copies carrying this code still have the QC issues from the original figure.

:This ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee is a redeco of the above figure, featuring ''mostly'' screen-accurate weathering on the vehicle shells; the back of the roof is missing a large rust spot and there is extra rust on the doors and back. He was an exclusive Lucky Draw prize in a contest only accessible to people who bought ''Studio Series'' figures on May 15th from Hasbro China's official TaoBao online shop. There were only 300 Bumblebees made, and he was packaged in vehicle mode. This release uses the second run of the toy.

:His official stock photos are mirrored, resulting in the blaster arm being on his left side.

He could be obtained by purchasing 100 SGD (~US$73) of ''Power of the Primes'' and ''Studio Series'' products.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Multi-pack, 2018)
**''Movie'': '''''Bumblebee'''''
**''ID number'': '''15'''
**''Accessories'': Detachable Stinger Blaster, bumper, 2 rocker panels, 2 spoilers, 2 hoods, [[Charlie Watson#Studio Series|Charlie Watson]] figurine, "Highway Freedom" backdrop

:This ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee is a redeco of the above ''Studio Series'' 01 toy, featuring new customizable parts (front bumper, rocker panels, two spoiler options, and two hood options) for his vehicle mode to evoke the look of a muscle car (while making use of the rectangular holes from the original toy), though they prevent him from fully transforming into robot mode while attached (with the exception of the car hoods). The set includes a Charlie Watson [[Slug figure|figurine]] wearing a shirt with the ''Bumblebee'' logo. Compared to the first ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee toy, he has a black front grill with extra yellow paint on his hands and shoulders, but loses the striping on the vehicle shells and chest, the silver on the feet and on the blaster's arm guard, and the paint on his torso flap. Instead, a vast sticker sheet is included with multiple different decals to customize the figure.

:This set was originally intended as a [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive and had the working name "Rebekah's Garage" (presumably the name of the originally intended backdrop scene; the general retail wave 3 figure listed below has a "Charlie's Garage" backdrop), but because of Toys"R"Us's bankruptcy, those plans were changed. After having been found at a single [[Target]] store in the United States before it was even officially announced, it was revealed as an alleged [[Entertainment Earth]] "exclusive", but was simultaneously also listed by competing online retailers such as [[BigBadToyStore]] and ToyWiz, in many instances still under the old working name. It ''was'' released as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in Canada, with store price tags featuring yet ''another'' working name, "Street Racer Set". Neither name can be found on the packaging, which simply calls the figure "Bumblebee" with no additional prefix or suffix, and the included backdrop is "Highway Freedom", depicting a scenic coastal drive.

:All stock photos of the toy's robot mode are mistransformed: his back kibble/car roof is not folded into his back. They also have his blaster jammed over his right hand instead of swapping out the arm. Best not to replicate this as it may damage the parts.

**''Hasbro ID number'': '''18'''
**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''SS-16'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[October 27]], 2018
**''Accessories'': Detachable Gatling Gun, arm blade, battle-mask face, "Charlie's Garage" backdrop

:Part of the third wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, Bumblebee transforms from a robot based on the ''Bumblebee'' film into a 1967 Volkswagen Beetle and back! He is based on concept art for the film, and thus has numerous inaccurate details, most notably the large door wings that weren't present on the final design. At the time, he was one of the smallest Deluxes in ''Studio Series'', standing at the same height as [[Jazz (Movie)#Studio Series|Jazz]], due to his small stature in the ''Bumblebee'' film itself.

:He comes with a detachable right Gatling Gun arm, an arm blade that can be attached to either forearm, and a battle mask that can be switched out with his removable face. All his accessories can be attached to the underside of his car or to his back in robot mode, with the unused face hanging off one of his smaller door wings. Bumblebee cannot be transformed with his Gatling gun arm on. Also included is a backdrop showing Charlie’s garage.

:Like the first ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee, this figure also suffers from several design flaws exacerbated by potential quality control issues. Due to the tolerance-altering layers of paint involved, the connection between the face pieces and the back of the head can either be too tight or pop off easily, potentially causing paint chipping. Meanwhile, his vehicle mode's kibble has some minor tabbing issues, notably on the waist piece. His 5 mm-compatible hands are prone to popping out if rotated back too far, and his door wings in robot mode have a tendency to flop over time. However, a gradual running change seems to have fixed these errors almost entirely.

:The vehicle hood and roof that forms his backpack is meant to lock securely into a groove on his upper back in robot mode, but there are two tabs along his back that make this process ''very'' difficult and pose the risk of breaking the translucent plastic hinge that has to be forced over them during transformation. While the first tab, located on his waist, is required to store his gun arm, the second tab just below the groove can be sanded down to ease transformation.

:TakaraTomy stock photos of the figure are actually those of their [[#7NetBattleDamage|rusty redeco]] of the figure, as evidenced by the missing silver paint on his feet and remnants of the added rust deco that were not completely edited out. This also makes the photos an unintentional reveal of the [[#SS24|Then & Now Bumblebee]] figure. One of the robot mode stock photos is also slightly mistransformed: his chest pieces are not locked correctly.

:To commemorate the ''Bumblebee'' movie, this ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee is a redeco of the [[#Studio Series|1977 Camaro mold]] based on the 1978-81 Camaro Z28, featuring smokier windows, dark gold plastic, and gold painted vehicle parts. He also features a different vehicle striping with miniature ''Bumblebee'' logos and a "Z28" label. In addition, the set uses a lineup number of 19, the second Hasbro exclusive in ''Studio Series'' to possess a number after [[Thundercracker (Movie)#Studio Series|Thundercracker]]. This Bumblebee uses the second run of the mold, which appears to be much more stable than the initial retail release.

:The real selling point of this set is the addition of two ''Japanese-original'' Mini-Cassettes: [[Dairu#Toys|Dairu]] and [[Uruaz#Toys|Uruaz]], the first ever Hasbro releases of the molds.

:This set also bucks the typical ''Studio Series'' packaging design, having a special cassette-styled box inside of a decorated sleeve and omitting the line’s signature backdrop displays. The back of the sleeve lists [[User:BluJayWarrior/SSRetroSongReferences|Transformers-themed parodies]] of real song titles and amusingly includes a disclaimer saying “Product does not contain music”.

:This set debuted at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2018 and was later made available via Hasbro Toy Shop. It also saw later release at Paris Comic-Con 2018 and in Japan as Tokyo Comic Con 2018 and TakaraTomy Mall exclusives. In Taiwan, this set was available at general retail.

The sides of the car have black stripes that include the ''Bumblebee'' logo. There is also a silver stripe down his hood and a larger Autobot symbol on his head.

:This set also has the addition of two ''Japanese-original'' Mini-Cassettes: [[Uriad]], a color-swapped transparent redeco of [[Dairu#Toys|Dairu]], and [[Zauru]], a predeco of [[Uruaz#Toys|Uruaz]] in the original Zaur colors, requiring collectors who wanted the combined [[Legout]] in G1 colors to get both Retro Rock and Retro Pop sets.

:This set uses the same packaging style as the Retro Rock set instead of the typical ''Studio Series'' packaging. The back of the sleeve lists even more [[User:BluJayWarrior/SSRetroSongReferences|parody song titles]] and once again reminds you, “Product does not contain music”.

:This set was announced at San Diego Comic-Con 2018 as an Entertainment Earth exclusive, though it was also available through other online retailers like BigBadToyStore and ToyWiz and even showed up at [[GameStop]] stores in the United States.

:This ''Studio Series'' two-pack consists of 24 "Bumblebee 1967 Volkswagen Beetle", a redeco of the [[#SS18|Beetle mold]], and 25 "Bumblebee 2016 Chevrolet Camaro", a redeco of the second [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|''Premier Edition'' mold]]. This Beetle Bumblebee features a number of rusty paint applications along the sides and front of the car and the silver paint operations are removed from his feet, which was previously seen in the TakaraTomy stock photo of the individual release. Additionally, the Autobot symbol on his non-battle mask face is larger. Deco omissions on the Camaro Bumblebee include the silver on the shins and shoulders. There is more black paint on the rocker panels and the front bumper.

:Both figures come with individual deluxe-sized backdrops, though they share one instruction sheet. The "California Hideout" backdrop is identical to the "Charlie's Garage" backdrop included with the first Beetle release. The Camaro Bumblebee’s backdrop depicts his chase through the streets of [[London]].

:The CG renders on the packaging depict the Beetle Bumblebee having silver paint on his feet, while the Camaro Bumblebee has the silver paint on his biceps, shins, and kneecaps.

:The name "Bumblebee Then & Now Two-Pack" comes from their BigBadToyStore listing<ref>''Studio Series'' Bumblebee Then & Now Two-Pack at [https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/87393 BigBadToyStore]</ref> and display names at conventions. The final set only has the names of the individual figures.

:The set was initially exclusive to Target in the U.S., and later, BigBadToyStore. The Beetle Bumblebee figure was released as an exclusive for Japan's 7net site (see below). Target reissued the set in 2021.

**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''SS-19'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[January 26]], 2019
**''Accessories'': Pistol, hammer, "WWII Flashback" backdrop

:Part of the fifth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, "WWII Bumblebee" is based on his appearance during [[World War II]] in ''The Last Knight''. Rather than transforming into the Mercedes-Benz car as seen in the movie, he transforms into an armored car as in [[Josh Nizzi]]'s concept art for the character — though it's a ''different'' armored car, being a {{W|Humber Light Reconnaissance Car}} rather than a {{w|Humber Scout Car}}! The vehicle parts feature a subtle olive paint wash. In a near-unnoticeable detail, the Autobot insignia can barely be seen on his forehead as it blends in ''too'' well with the green plastic.

:Bumblebee's Warhammer, based on the one used in World War II (and can double as a monotone version of the warhammer used in his fight against Optimus), doubles as a vehicle mode artillery barrel, with his handgun transforming into a top-mounted turret. While the turret base can be rotated, the pistol's handle is loose enough to swivel while mounted on, rendering the feature pointless. The hammer can be mounted on his robot back, and can be rotated to have the handle pointing upwards like in the movie. The gun has no designated storage in robot mode, but the backpack can be transformed into its vehicle mode configuration to store both weapons. The backdrop displays the Allied assault on a Nazi building. Bumblebee only comes with one gun despite wielding two of them in this scene.

:WWII Bumblebee also features a pseudo-[[Automorph Technology|Automorph gimmick]]: His front chest panel can be pushed up/down, extending/retracting his head. Due to his transformation scheme, WWII Bumblebee is a [[shellformer]], with the majority of the vehicle shells hanging on his rear. The kibble backpack also blocks the 3 mm hole for display stands unless it's slightly lifted up. In a rather baffling design flaw, the holes on the chest panel are seemingly meant to lock with the shoulder joints' tabs, but they are too far apart to be tabbed in. On the bright side, the arms are not easily dislodged further from the central body as the backpack holds the shoulder assembly in place.

:This mold was retooled into [[Hot Rod (DOTM)#Studio Series|WWII Hot Rod]].

**''Accessories'': Detachable Stinger Blaster, "[[Bolivia's Finest Quality Used Cars and Petting Zoo|Used Car Shopping]]" backdrop

:Part of the fifth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, "Clunker Bumblebee" is a redeco of the [[#Studio Series|''Studio Series'' 1977 Camaro Bumblebee]], sporting a deco representing the beat-up look he had when first found by Sam, and even comes with a backdrop of [[Bolivia's Finest Quality Used Cars and Petting Zoo]]!

:The deco seems to be based on the [[#SSTaoBao|Taobao giveaway figure]] (or perhaps, using the same slightly inaccurate reference), though not as finely detailed. Consequently, he is missing a large rust spot on the back of the roof and there is extra rust on the doors and back, among other differences. There are also other paint changes on this figure: his chest's stripes and stomach's paint apps are omitted like the [[#SS15|Charlie Watson multipack]], the rear vehicle stripes are shortened, and the Stinger Blaster is entirely coated in silver (except the pegs). Some yellow paint is omitted from his forearms and the painted pegs on the feet that connect with the thighs in vehicle mode are removed. The Autobot symbol on his forehead is also slightly narrower.

:This release of the mold finally adds pins for the car roof's midsection, which prevents it from falling off during transformation.

**''Accessories'': Stinger Blaster, "City Tunnel Switch" backdrop

:The fifth general retail Bumblebee figure in the ''Studio Series'' lineup, this Bumblebee represents his updated form in the 2007 ''Transformers'' movie and transforms in a whopping 39 steps, with some transformation cues taken from his ''Studio Series'' [[#Studio Series|1977 Camaro version]] and from the ''Dark of the Moon'' [[#NitroBee|Nitro Bumblebee]] mold. Like the [[#MPM3|''Masterpiece Movie'' figure]], this Bumblebee does not actually turn into his screen-accurate 2006 Camaro Concept, but rather a production 2010 Camaro, likely due to licensing. Notable differences are the shaping of the front bumper and the inclusion of an antenna on the roof.

:His head comes with a non-removable battle mask, which is on the same size ball joint as the original and Clunker versions of Bumblebee in this line, allowing you to easily swap the heads. Unlike the past ''Studio Series'' Camaro Bees, he has a Stinger Blaster that can simply be plugged into his hand, without the need to replace his arm. The blaster can be stored on the back of his robot or car mode. Because of the physical space needed to store the arms in vehicle mode, Bumblebee has a thin waist (with a front stomach panel to compensate) when viewed from the side. Though not depicted at right, his door-wings can be tilted upward to more accurately replicate their orientation in the movie. He comes with a cardboard backdrop display based on the tunnel interior where he scanned his new vehicle mode in ''Transformers''.

:Part of the ninth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, "Offroad Bumblebee" transforms into a licensed Willys MB Jeep from the opening of ''Bumblebee''. He includes a blaster accessory that can clip over his right arm and onto his backpack for storage, as well as under the jeep mode. An alternate storage method is to fit it into a gap in his back; this way is still secure and avoids chipping the painted jeep hood. The cardboard backdrop display depicts his battle with [[Blitzwing (BB)|Blitzwing]].

:Despite the accuracy of most of the mold, the sculpt of the shoulders and thighs are for some reason based on those of the [[#SS18|VW Beetle mold]] instead of the film's Jeep design.

:As was undeniably inevitable, ''Studio Series'' "B-127" is a retool/redeco of [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Studio Series|Cliffjumper]], the mold itself being a retool of the above Offroad Bumblebee mold. This figure is based on Bumblebee's Cybertronian form in the ''Bumblebee'' film, transforming into a yellow Cybertronian car. The arms, thighs, and pelvis are inaccurate to this version of the character as they are reused from Offroad Bumblebee, not to mention the lack of yellow paint on the shoulders and thighs. He features a battle mask head that can be swapped with Offroad Bee's unmasked head, though the yellow plastics between the two are slightly different shades.

:He comes with a redeco of the Gatling gun accessory with silver and gunmetal paint and a cardboard backdrop display depicting a war-torn Cybertron as it appears in the beginning of the film. The blaster stores under the canopy in alt mode and simply drops into a gap in the robot mode's backpack.

:Part of the thirteenth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, this Bumblebee is a general retail re-release of the ''[[Buzzworthy Bumblebee]]'' toy [[#BW74|below]] (though in all fairness, it's very likely this version was supposed to come out ''first'' had it not been for the sudden addition of the '86 figures to the ''Studio Series'' lineup). This figure, like his Buzzworthy release, is a slight recolor and remold of the above ''Studio Series'' 49 Bumblebee, with new wheels and front section of the car to reflect his 2010 Camaro Concept, a slightly resculpted blaster, and includes a static Sam Witwicky figurine. This version sports a more accurate orange-yellow color and new racing stripes, but also uses less accurate light gray plastic and silver paint applications, and has no paint on his feet. He is also conspicuously lacking black paint apps on the sides of his bumper, though this is more accurate to his robot mode. The box and cardboard backdrop depicting [[Operation: Firestorm]] are changed to the normal ''Studio Series'' graphics as opposed to ''Buzzworthy Bumblebee''. The box art reuses an old image of Bumblebee with his shoulder cannons, which are not included with this release.

:''Studio Series'' "N.E.S.T. Bumblebee" is a desaturated gray and silver redeco of the above [[#SS57|Offroad Bumblebee]], with a nameless repack of the Sam Witwicky figure originally included with [[#BW74|74BB ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Bumblebee]], which was meant to depict [[NEST]] personnel (dubbed "Officer Walken" by designer [[Mark Maher]]). Bumblebee also features clear green headlights and windows, and the Universal Studios version of the NEST/Autobot emblem on his hood. Though not based on the films, his color scheme of gray with subtle green highlights and an organization badge coincidentally evokes the [[#Daredevil|''Dark of the Moon'' Autobot Daredevil Squad Bumblebee]]. Maher envisioned this figure as being a drone built by NEST, but this is not reflected in the final product description.

:The seemingly odd choice for this figure's coloration is explained by the fact that it was originally intended for [[Transformers: Universal Studios|Universal Studios]]'s ''[[Transformers: The Ride – 3D]]'', just like "[[Megatron (Movie)/toys#SSUniversal|As Seen In Parks Megatron]]", but due to the global {{w|COVID-19 pandemic}}, [[Universal]] had to temporarily close its theme parks. Looking for another outlet to release the two figures instead of waiting for the pandemic to be over, Hasbro made them both available as "shared exclusives" between several online retailers in the US, such as [[Hasbro Pulse]], [[BigBadToyStore]], or [[Entertainment Earth]]. While it was too late to completely redesign Megatron's packaging, N.E.S.T. Bumblebee was still in an early enough stage of development that Hasbro could change the packaging design and brand him as part of the ''[[Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee]]'' film, despite never sporting that color scheme in the film itself.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=That was handled by another designer, but it was intended to released as a universal parks aligned Nest vehicle to go along with their in park experience which is based on NEST not Sector 7. But I can understand the confusion, when it is a vehicle form that was used by Sector 7 in the BB film.|link=https://www.instagram.com/p/CcJ-uY3siwM/c/18135768532251958/r/17889173801623003/|name=Sam Smith|site=Instagram|year=2022|month=04|day=10}}</ref> At one point the figure was considered for a ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' release, with one [https://media.entertainmentearth.com/assets/images/b6bc6e82c7ba4a5db9f2679edef76c5bxl.jpg promotional image] retaining that branding.

:The official promotional render of the figure's packaging humorously misspells Bumblebee's name as '''Bumblbebee'''. It's only been ''37 years'', guys. (It's spelled correctly on the actual packaging.)

:Part of the seventeenth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, Bumblebee is now based on his ''Dark of the Moon'' appearance. He's a significant, if subtle, retool of the [[#SS49|''Studio Series'' 49 mold]], featuring all new parts for his alt mode, except for the clear parts, roof, and door hinges, to accurately replicate his 2011 Camaro SS mode (and finally making the antenna on the roof accurate). In robot mode, he features a new armored faux chest and a slightly modified unmasked headsculpt, though it is lacking the usual Autobot symbol tampograph. He is missing the panels on top of his shoulders (ironically, they were inaccurately added to the [[#Studio Series|1977 Camaro mold]]) and the smaller wings are still made of his windows instead of the spoiler. He is also lacking paint on his feet, parts of his shoulders, and the rear vehicle stripes, in exchange for paint apps on his bumpers, roof, and chest. This is the first version of the mold to correctly leave the tops of the door windows unpainted. Bumblebee comes with yet another slightly resculpted Stinger Blaster, which can be handheld and stores on his back or on the rear of the car.

:Like the other ''Studio Series'' toys, the interior of the package forms a display backdrop, depicting the Battle of Chicago. Hasbro stock images and CG renders forgot to fold down his secondary wings, while the former also has his chest mistransformed. The box art actually depicts Bumblebee in his ''Revenge of the Fallen'' design, though it was a new render used to promote ''Dark of the Moon''.

:Bumblebee and his wavemates were revealed on [[May 10]], 2022, with preorders coming up the same day. Unusually for a modern ''Generations'' release, Bumblebee was revealed by [[TakaraTomy]] before [[Hasbro]], which usually unveils upcoming toys before or simultaneously with TakaraTomy.

**''Movie'': '''''Transformers'''''
**''ID number'': '''49'''
**''Accessories'': Stinger Blaster, "Autobots Arrival" reversible backdrop

:"15th Anniversary" Bumblebee is a redeco/retool of the ''Studio Series'' 49 figure, featuring altered paint applications and plastic color changes. He utilizes the unmasked head from the above ''Dark of the Moon'' version, this time with the Autobot tampograph added, as well as the racing stripes from the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' version. On this version, the black plastic has been replaced with light gray, the yellow and dark gray plastics are lighter, and the clear plastic is a much darker translucent black. The gunmetal paint operations and headlights are now silver. Notably, paint applications were removed from his feet, faux chest, arm guards, and most of his shoulders.

:Some owners have noted that this version has much looser joints, especially in the legs, possibly from [[Mold#Deterioration|mold degradation]].

:This figure comes in an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive 5-pack alongside redecoes of ''Studio Series'' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Optimus Prime]], [[Ironhide (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Ironhide]], [[Ratchet (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Ratchet]] and [[Jazz (Movie)#SS15thAnniversary|Jazz]], released to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the first live-action [[Transformers (film)|''Transformers'' film]]. The pack comes with a unique reversible backdrop depicting the alley where the Autobots first met Sam on one side and the exterior of Sam's house on the other. Like the ''Dark of the Moon'' version, stock photos and renders for this Bumblebee leave the secondary wings untransformed.

{{toydesigner|[[Sam Smith]] (Hasbro), [[Ittoku Kuwazu]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:The 100th numbered release in ''Studio Series'', this Deluxe Bumblebee is based on his appearance in ''[[Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (film)|Transformers: Rise of the Beasts]]'', transforming into a licensed 1977 Camaro with off-road modifications. He has black stripes on the roof that are inaccurate to the movie and is missing the Autobot symbol on his forehead. In a rare move, this toy features separate clear pieces for the windows.

:He comes with his Stinger Blaster and an arm blade. The blaster clips over his right hand. The unpainted arm blade attaches to either arm and is compatible with past ''Studio Series [[#SS18|Bumblebee]]'' [[#SS57|movie]] [[#SS70|Bees]]. Both accessories can store on his wings in robot mode. In car mode, the sword stores underneath while the blaster attaches to the rear. His backdrop depicts the volcanic final battle. His instructions have a small error, it shows folding the light segments up for transformation, which is their robot mode position. They should be folded all the way down, and will then click to horizontal when you push the grill into place.

:According to Sam Smith, the blade was originally intended for an "alternate release" before being packed in with this one. The blade ultimately didn't appear in the movie itself, where Bee dual-wields blasters instead. The included blaster can be held in his left hand, albeit upside down and exposing the top of the hand. Ironically, the blaster is cast in yellow plastic painted over in gray, whereas it was still mostly yellow in the film. Though perhaps this is a moot point as this toy's blaster is still based on its ''Bumblebee'' design anyway.

:A [[variant]] of this Bumblebee was found with a more completely painted face in a darker silver, though this means his yellow cheeks have been inaccurately painted over as well. This variant became more common in later cases of the figure. The repack in Wave 22 no longer uses plastic-free packaging.

He transforms into a licensed 2011 Concept Camaro and includes a [[Fire Blast effect]] compatible cannon that can be handheld or placed on the roof/robot's back.

:It would appear that this mold was partially based on the model of Deluxe Class [[#SS87|''Studio Series'' 87 Bumblebee]], as he retains the inner struts on the spoiler and the two slots on his rear bumper meant for the Deluxe's blaster, though at this scale they aren't compatible with anything.

:The packaging is decorated with artwork depicting the location in Chicago where Bee was nearly executed. The box art once again depicts his ''Revenge of the Fallen'' design rather than his ''Dark of the Moon'' one.

:Part of the twenty-seventh wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxes, ''Studio Series'' 116 Bumblebee is a heavy retool of the [[#SS18|1967 VW Beetle mold]], retaining most of the car parts with an all-new robot mode that is more accurate to his on-screen appearance, though it still has the original toy's lankier proportions. While he still has the inaccurate door wings, they can now swivel down to be somewhat hidden from view. The retooling also results in the rear side windows being painted and the unfortunate removal of his waist rotation.

:He comes with new gatling gun and arm blade accessories closer to their final designs. The gun plugs in his right hand like recent ''Studio Series'' Bumblebees instead of swapping with the arm like on the original mold. The blade can be used on either arm, but this time is not compatible with the arm ports on the previous ''Bumblebee'' Bumblebees and vice versa.

Bumblebee can also be attached to the Energon Igniters core, and due to the toy being lightweight, it can propel his vehicle mode forward very quickly. As the port is 5 mm compatible, Bumblebee can mount with other smaller weapons with the same post size, making him an efficient weapon-towing vehicle.

Apart from the sculpted Volkswagen symbol on his front hood, Bumblebee doesn't have any single Autobot insignia tampographed or sculpted on.

His vehicle mode is largely unpainted, save for a single black paint app for the windshield and hood stripes. The black unpaintable patches on the car roof evoke roof stripes... even though this vehicle mode never ''had'' that detailing. He also features pinned wheels instead of the simple-assembly ones. In a surprisingly near-unnoticeable detail, the Autobot Insignia is sculpted on his fake chest. He shares a similar transformation scheme with ''Robots in Disguise (2015)'' Legion Class [[Sideswipe (RID)#Legion Class|Sideswipe]].

:Due to minor [[Design flaw#Clipping issues|clipping issues]] and potentially a case of [[Design flaw#Inferior glue|inferior glue]], pulling out his arms/vehicle headlights while converting into robot mode with excessive force can snap his 3 mm hands from his arms.

This version sports a more accurate orange-yellow color and new racing stripes, but also uses less accurate light gray plastic and silver paint applications, and has no paint on his feet. He is also conspicuously lacking black paint apps on the sides of his bumper, though this is more accurate to his robot mode. He comes with an additional Sam Witwicky [[Slug figure|figurine]] molded in a static running pose similar to his [[Sam Witwicky#Masterpiece Movie Series|''Movie Masterpiece'' toy]], but much smaller in size. He also comes with a slightly resculpted Stinger Blaster and a cardboard backdrop display depicting [[Operation: Firestorm]].

The gunmetal and silver paints are also a slightly darker shade. Replacing the battle mask head of the original, B-127 sports a fully painted unmasked head from the [[#SS57|Offroad Bumblebee]] figure, which B-127 was retooled from. B-127 also has additional yellow paint to visually connect the two faux vehicle parts on his chest better, though he lacks the gray paint on his torso that visually connected the gray plastic parts together. Compared to the [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Studio Series|Cliffjumper]] and the original B-127 toy, this B-127 features much tighter joints.

**''Accessories'': 2 bumper daggers, rollcage/"shield"

:Included as part of a Target-exclusive ''[[Buzzworthy Bumblebee]]'' "Jungle Mission 3-pack", this Bumblebee is another Deluxe Class iteration of the character that converts into a licensed off-road 1977 Camaro. His front bumper splits to become two hand-held daggers, and the rollcage that goes on his windshield can be attached to his left arm as a "shield". His right forearm can rotate to become a plasma cannon, which features a hexagonal 5 mm port in its barrel.

:The back of his head has a transparent section to allow for [[light-piping]], however the effect is mostly neutered since his eyes are painted over.

:This Bumblebee has two major [[design flaw]]s in robot mode: his neck has no locking point and the torso does not tab together securely, resulting the figure coming apart very easily when handling. His knees are also soft locked to only bend straight, 45, and 90 degrees.

*[[Aaron Archer]] mentioned that when Hasbro received pictures of numerous toys of Bumblebee [[shelfwarmer|shelf-warming]], they finally realized that they had indeed gone overboard with his toys. Archer suggested a need for a certain amount of yellow-colored toys in each wave, hence the large amount of Bumblebees released per wave.

'''[[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]''' is the star of a [[Live-action film series|multibillion-dollar film franchise]], and as such has an ungodly amount of toys and memorabilia!

Seriously, he's probably got more than [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Optimus Prime]] by now.

He is one of two characters (the other being [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys|Optimus Prime]]) to have at least one toy in every size class.

{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: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 applications. Due to his simplified transformation, his hands are exposed on the vehicle bumper, and due to how the arms are molded, the headlights make the robot mode appear to be wielding a pair of guns. 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; the racing stripes just extend over it.

:The toy was also released in two different ways in Japan: the Hasbro version was initially released as a giveaway for the customers who purchased the Movie toys worth 3000 yen in the Transformers First Impact 0602 event held in Ikebukuro Toys"R"Us store at midnight [[June 2]]nd, with the package completely unchanged with the exception of the sticker covering the back to identify that this was a giveaway. The toy was also later released as part of the blind-packed EZ Collection lineup, distributed via TakaraTomy's subsidiary Subarudo.

:He was later redecoed into [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Legends Class toys|Cliffjumper]].

The toy itself is almost entirely unpainted, save for some metallic blue for his eyes, and silver for his face and for the tampographed Autobot symbol on his chest.

:At least some unsold units (often with (or without) the box and without the magazine) were available in some Hobby Shop dealers in Asia. Fortunately, they're sold at a similar price to current Legion Class figures.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Classic Camaro, 2007)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''MA-03'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[June 2]], 2007
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles, left and right spring-loaded missile launchers
{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro), [[Alex Kubalsky]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Part of the second wave of [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|''Transformers'']] Deluxe Class figures, the first Deluxe Class version of Bumblebee transforms into a yellow {{w|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 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 Technology|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 and you'll be transforming his front car hood manually. The retooled Automorph gimmick would be used for all subsequent versions of the mold, including a small number of Japanese releases, 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.

:One of the more unfortunate results of the car hood's automorph feature, leaves the front of the car form not staying together properly over time. While it may not happen to every release of the figure, it's definitely something to keep an eye out for.

: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 with metallic blue paint. The [[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 original Hasbro mold (complete with opaque windows) also saw release in Japan 10 years later, as part of an Amazon Japan exclusive 3-pack (see below).

:The packaging used for the Japanese release is the same as for the Hasbro version, with the exception of additional stickers identifying it as a Japanese market release.

:The toy appears to be partially based on an early character study of Bumblebee by [[Don Figueroa]], particularly his feet.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=A VERY early character study of BB for the first #Transformers movie.|link=https://twitter.com/SketchyFig/status/1524542496847458304|name=Don Figueroa|site:Twitter|year=2022|month=May|day=12}}</ref>

:This battle pack contains the 1976 Camaro Deluxe Class Bumblebee and the Deluxe Class [[Barricade (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys|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 the 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 [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|toy drought]] following the movie's record-smashing opening.

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.

**''TakaraTomy name'': '''New Bumblebee'''
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''MA-10'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[August 9]], 2007
**''Accessories:'' [[Plasma cannon]]
{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro), [[Alex Kubalsky]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Released in the fourth wave of Deluxes, the second Deluxe Class Bumblebee toy shares no parts with the previous version and transforms into the {{w|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 Technology|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. Depending on how tight the shoulder ball joints are, posing his arms can be troublesome as they're jointed with the front wheel/car doors/wings. If the converting Plasma Cannon is removed from his vehicle form, the spring-loaded windows may become slightly dislodged unless you press both sides of the vehicle rear to counter this.

:Depending on the individual quality control, his pair of yellow shoulder panels tend to pop off occasionally. Care should be taken while transforming the front clear window piece: At least one of the protruding panels can snap off if not done carefully.

: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. His robot mode stock photo is mistransformed; the chest hood blocks can be flipped up for better accuracy. This mistransformation is common to all of his redecoes/retools below.

:A running change version of this sculpt adds sculpted pupils to Bumblebee's eyes. A ''second'' running change adds tabs to the hip panels, which makes the [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] hold together better.<ref name="conceptvariant">[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 sculpt.

:This sculpt was also used to make "Allspark Power" [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Deluxe Class toys|Cliffjumper]].

*'''Evolution of a Hero''' (Target exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles, left and right spring-loaded missile launchers, 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 sculpt.

:This two-pack was available as a Target exclusive in the USA, as a Zellers exclusive in Canada (in English-only packaging), as a Tesco exclusive in the United Kingdom and Ireland, and as an exclusive to stores that were members of either the Idee + Spiel or Vedes trade associations (which were cooperating at the time) in Germany.

:A more [[show-accuracy|screen-accurate]] [[redeco]] of Camaro Concept Deluxe Class Bumblebee, with all of the black plastic and paint operations (sans the racing stripes and the grille mesh) changed to gray. In addition, the translucent parts are now an ever-so-slightly greener shade of blue. The only other change is the addition of a new [[tampograph]]ed red Autobot symbol on his forehead. Unfortunately, his racing stripes aren't added with black border pinstripes.

:This ''Screen Battles'' pack (or "Battle Scenes" in Europe) also includes non-[[articulation|poseable]] [[Slug figure|figurines]] of [[Sector Seven]] agent [[Seymour 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,<ref name="checklist">[http://web.archive.org/web/20080920112933/http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/default.cfm?page=Collectors/Checklist Hasbro checklist] featuring Screen Battles sets with additional extras</ref> this pack was originally supposed to feature "ice soldiers" (plural), in addition to an "S7 agent" and an "S7 soldier". Apparently, the 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]], which was supposed to contain ''four'' soldier figures according to the same Hasbro checklist<ref name="checklist"/>).

This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the battle in Mission City.

:The Bumblebee figure oddly does not feature the character's distinctive car door "wings" on his back. However, keen [[customizing|customizers]] 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,<ref name="checklist"/> this seems indeed very plausible.)

*'''Ultimate Bumblebee''' (Ultimate Class, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Missile

:The first Ultimate Class toy, this version of Bumblebee is similar in size to Supreme Class figures and transforms into a large 2009 concept Camaro. The toy features [[motorized movement|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. 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.

:The projectile included with this figure is the same mold included with several [[Attacktix]] figures like the [[Decepticlone]], Omnicon, Vehicle Mode [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]], and a few others.

: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)#Cyber Slammers|Cliffjumper]].

**''ID number:'' '''TS-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Display stand, set of Camaro mode armor, set of protoform armor, open-palmed hands
{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: [[Trans-scan]]ning 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 metallic orange plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be transform into his meteor-like "entry mode". This mode 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 many armor pieces that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a licensed Camaro concept. Compared to the overly simple transformation of the protoform mode, his car mode's transformation can be described as an abominable, unintuitive, parts-massaging ''mess''.

: 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.

: 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.

The three-function infrared remote, in Bumblebee's signature colors, gives you control of the car with forward and reverse turn movement.

The tip of the gun barrel can also be unscrewed, revealing a pen (!) inside.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Legends, 2009)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''EZ-03'''
{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

:''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 [[size class|price point]]).

:The [[:File:ROTF Legends Bumblebee HTS.jpg|second batch of stock photos of the toy]], which depict a [[prototype|(pre-)production sample]], show it in a much brighter shade of yellow plastic than it was released as. It's possible that this was simply the result of an excessive alteration of the hue settings during the digital enhancement of those photos, though.

:There are a few problems on the toy's vehicle mode: Probably due to tolerances, there are difficulties for perfectly aligning the wings/side windows with the legs/rear windows during transformation, though several samples does not seem to have this issue. In terms of deco, Bumblebee's face paint quality varies from figure-to-figure: Due to how the eyes are painted to emulate the mechanical optics; the central blue "eyeball" (especially the left one) is ''slightly'' lopsided. The forehead is often messily painted.

:In Malaysia, this toy is also one of the four Legends Classes to be released as promotional merchandise for the Petronas Gas Station. He can be obtained starting from the 26th of June (2 days are the movie's premiere), via RM30 ($7.04) worth of gas or RM15 ($3.52) worth of foods and items in the Mesra Shop.

:This mold was used as the basis for the non-toy character [[Saitama Prime]].

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe, 2009)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''RA-03'''
**''Accessories:'' Pulse Missile

:Released as part of a "preview" [[wave]] of the ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Deluxe Class assortment alongside [[Soundwave (ROTF)/toys|Soundwave]], Bumblebee is a relatively major retool of the Camaro Concept Bumblebee mold, featuring a new vehicle front end, hood and wheels to reflect the changes to the prop vehicle used in the movie; and in robot mode has a new, more accurate head sculpt... that just so happens to have some very creepy painted eyes but still, it's accurate nonetheless. Also, the paint on the door knobs, the gas lid, and the sculpted "Camaro" is omitted.

:His right arm has also been replaced by an all-new sculpt which substitutes the hand and the hand-held converting plasma cannon/blade weapon from the previous version for a built-in plasma cannon with a spring-loaded firing gimmick for the included missile. If one wishes to use the normal right arm, one must pop off the plasma cannon arm and replace it with the normal forearm from the Screen Battles figure (the only one with the accurate gray color), though the window must be replaced with the same translucent blue piece by unscrewing it.

:The instructions still depict him having the head from the 2007 Concept Camaro mold. Both the prototype and stock photos do not have his waist armor rotated into position in robot mode, while the later stock photo does not show the chest pieces being folded up. Due to the omission of the converting Plasma Cannon that holds the rear windows in position, the pieces may not align properly if the lower thighs/vehicle rear is not transformed properly during the robot-to-vehicle conversion.

:The initial production run included a missile that was slightly too long for the slot inside the arm, so it either has to be slightly cut down to fit or the cannon must be swiveled outwards to accommodate the missile. This was fixed by a [[variant|running change]] that saw the missile slightly shortened.<ref name="missile1">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/revenge-of-the-fallen/bumblebee/1757/ Seibertron.com gallery of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Preview" Bumblebee], depicting the early version with a slightly too long missile.</ref><ref name="missile2">[http://www.bwtf.com/toyreviews/rotf/deluxe/bumblebee/ BWTF review of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Preview" Bumblebee], depicting the later version with a missile that fits in without a problem.</ref><ref name="missile3">[http://snakas.web.fc2.com/09movie/ra03bumblebee.html Autobase Aichi gallery of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Preview" Bumblebee], featuring a comparison of both versions of the missile.</ref> The corrected version was also released in other markets such as Japan and Europe.

{{toydesigner|[[Alex Kubalsky]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:This heavy retool of Bumblebee changes the entire upper half of the robot mode, and thus half of the car, to newly designed parts (essentially, only the legs are recycled from ''Movie'' Concept Camaro Bumblebee and the previous ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Bumblebee; everything else is an entirely new sculpt), including more articulated arms with open palms, less obstructive vehicle [[kibble]], a differently transforming chest, and two flip-out (non-firing) missile launcher racks behind his head. Interestingly, his arms can be detached and easily popped onto the original mold, resulting in a more [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] robot mode, though this sacrifices transformation. This extensive retooling results in a car interior with seats and a crude dashboard, but the windows are so opaque that these new details can't easily be seen. A [[variant]] with clear blue windows was released in later shipments.<ref name="cannonbee">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/revenge-of-the-fallen/cannon-bumblebee/1855/2/92/ Comparison between both versions of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Cannon Bumblebee.]</ref>

:His "heels" are assembled backwards, which keeps them from being folded up against the back of the shins. Disappointingly, his chest cannot deform like the previous releases of this mold (or his Fast Action Battler).

:A minor redeco and retool Cannon Bumblebee that replaces the head sculpt with the much smaller battle mask head previously used by Stealth Bumblebee and Premium Bumblebee from the 2007 movie line. The base plastic colors and matching paint colors are virtually identical to those of Cannon Bumblebee, as are the [[Paint operation|paint masks]] for the most part. Aside from the head, the only differences are different paint choices in the abdominal section (the license plate, the sculpted cylinders above the license plate and the crotch plate below the gas cap), the front sides of the shoulder cannons (painted black on Cannon Bumblebee, painted red on Battlefield Bumblebee) and a different size and placement for the [[tampograph]]ed Autobot [[insignia|logo]] (on the side of Cannon Bumblebee's left shoulder cannon panel, on the front end of Battlefield Bumblebee's vehicle mode hood/robot mode chest).

:Battlefield Bumblebee was only available in a two-pack with a redecoed [[Soundwave (ROTF)/toys#Infiltration|Soundwave]], named "Infiltration Soundwave".

:As for the Bumblebee figure, he features pinned shoulder panels used for the Alliance Bumblebee release above. It was unclear if he retains the original metallic paint job from the ''Premium Series'' figure.

:Like his pack-in mate Optimus Prime, a near-identical [[knockoff]] of the 2-pack has been making the rounds since the 2-pack's release, with Bumblebee being the dead giveaway, as he comes with additional yellow paint on the lower "jaws", the uneven gray (and the forehead's red) paint on the helmet, and unpinned shoulder panels.

**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''RA-21'''

{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Human Alliance Bumblebee comes with a posable figure of [[Sam Witwicky]] that can fit inside in Bumblebee's vehicle mode (plugging into his seat via a small hole in his back) and drive him. In robot mode, Bumblebee's vehicle mode seats end up on his arms, and Sam can sit in either of them; the seat on Bumblebee's right has a headrest that can fold down to look slightly less conspicuous in robot mode, while the seat on Bumblebee's left arm features a pair of cannons which flip over Sam's shoulders, offering him some offensive hardware to protect his rather precarious position. These cannons can also be flipped down further to form some over-the-shoulder restraints. Sam can also stand on a platform that flips out from the small of Bumblebee's back (again, via peg-holes on his feet), manning a small non-firing cannon that flips out over Bumblebee's right shoulder. Finally, Bumblebee's left palm also contains a peg, meaning Sam can securely stand or sit in his big buddy's hand. Bumblebee himself features a spring-loaded cannon for his right arm, which can fire the two missiles the figure comes with, a flip-out double-barreled silver cannon that points over his head, and a functional flip-down battle mask. Much like the rest of his Human Alliance brethren, Bumblebee is roughly the same size as an ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' toy, being slightly taller than ''Alternators'' [[Mirage (G1)|Mirage]] in robot mode.

:[[File:Human Alliance Bumblebee Prototype.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|left|Modders, vindicated by the prototype.]]
:There is a significant [[misassembly]] issue with Bumblebee: according to TakaraTomy's images of the resin [[prototype]] as well as Bumblebee's CG design, the retail toy's legs are on the wrong sides of his body, so the details on his legs are inverted. Since the instructions reflect this assembly, it's possible that this was [[design change|done on purpose]] because, with the toy in its originally intended assembly, the waist section could be rather difficult to transform for children. The toy's originally intended assembly can still be [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/243649-human-alliance-bumblebee-leg-mod.html easily achieved by disassembling his crotch and reassembling the legs backwards.] Once this is complete, Bumblebee will look the way he was intended to look while adding some minor extra steps during transformation.

:Plonk him down. Lift him up. Plonk him down. Lift him up. This addictive toy transforms automatically when stood up (vehicle to robot), or placed on his back (robot to vehicle). A switch underneath his feet or his car mode releases the transformation — so the toy can be played with in relatively stable modes if held in the air, or just rolling along the ground.

:Because gravity is the powering force in the transformation there's no motors to wear out or batteries to use up when playing with the toy. Which is good, because you will be transforming him no less than nine million times.

:Bumblebee features dumpy proportions and low movie accuracy (no door wings here), forced upon the toy to accommodate the [[Gravity Bot]]s transformation gimmick. His robot mode has no articulation, not even head. But at least he has big feet! Or legs... or whatever the heck they are. Stump? At least he has a big stump.

: ''[[Transformers (2010 toyline)|Hunt for the Decepticons]]'' Bumblebee features a much more accurate and articulated sculpt in robot mode compared to previous versions of Deluxe class Camaro Concept versions of the character, with the [[transformation scheme]] taking many cues from ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Human Alliance Bumblebee, scaled down to Deluxe size, while using an [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]] design for the leg transformation directly based on the original Deluxe Class Concept Camaro Bumblebee.

: His right forearm can transform into his signature plasma cannon, though due to how the parts were distributed on the plastic sprues during production, the cannon barrel is yellow rather than grey. The left arm-guard has a flip-out axe made of translucent blue plastic, representing the axe weapon Bumblebee uses in the [[Revenge of the Fallen (video games)|''Revenge of the Fallen'' video games]], which itself may have been based upon the electrical [[Stinger (weapon)|stinger]] that was once considered as a melee weapon for Bumblebee in the first movie. The axe is spring-loaded, activated by a button on his arm-guard. This version of Movie Bumblebee also features a flip-down battle mask, very similar in function to Human Alliance Bumblebee.

: His head has a tendency to pop off during transformation. The space at the front of the collar would give him ''just'' enough clearance to pass his head through... if it was not for the small plastic flap (the one with the [[Autobot]] symbol) on his chest, which tends to push and squeeze the head out enough that the tension causes the head to pop and fly out from his ball-jointed neck.

: Stock photos show that the axe was originally made in such a way that the blade was mounted on a rod and could be rotated downwards, but this was changed entirely for unknown reasons (possibly fragility). As a result, the blade is mounted upside-down.

: The Japanese ''[[Autobot Alliance]]'' release features marginally darker yellow plastic and paint.

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

: Battle Ops Bumblebee is a larger-than-contemporary-Leader-Class figure, and features both "guardian" and "warrior" robot modes, which changes weapons and sound effects. His head has a flip-down battle mask, and his right arm converts into a plasma cannon automatically when his arm is raised. The cannon arm has limited articulation due to the gimmick, but features a small translucent-blue hand which telescopes out of the cannon when not in use. He also is armed with two non-firing light-up shoulder/hood missile launchers which can be deployed in either mode; though not mentioned in the instructions, the missile launchers can be collapsed on the back in robot mode. Also, you have to remove the plastic ring attached on the right cannon hand before you use the toy.

: As revealed at the Hasbro designers panel at [[BotCon 2010]], an easter egg is hidden in Battle Ops Bumblebee's electronics: when in vehicle mode, pressing down on the front left end of the vehicle (or pushing the front left wheel up) thrice will play the first verse of the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original ''Transformers'']] [[theme song]], and three subsequent presses will play the second verse. Unfortunately, it only repeats the first two verses.

: A [[Costco]]-[[exclusive]] [[redeco]] of the Bumblebee figure above, this release is advertised as having a "Limited Edition metallic finish!", being cast in gray plastic and painted over in metallic gold, and with his hand being cast in colorless clear plastic, making him very similar to his ''Masterpiece'' figure. Additionally, the tip of his cannon is [[Vacuum metallizing|chromed]].

: He also comes with two "Great Value" toys: an unchanged Legends Class [[Mudflap (ROTF)#BattleOpsCostco|Mudflap]] figure, and a "Premium" vacuum-metallized gold redeco of Bumblebee's own ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends Class figure.

: Canada received both English and French versions of this release - bizarrely, the French release is available in places outside Quebec such as Vancouver and even Alberta.

:The figure should be handled with considerable care, as the dark gray metallic plastic used in joints in the torso and legs tends to become [[Gold Plastic Syndrome|brittle]] over time.

{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece: Movie Series]]'' Bumblebee is a redeco of Battle Ops Bumblebee. Unlike the Hasbro version, he features a very extensive paint job, including chromed rims, and features no yellow plastic despite his appearance. Instead, all of his yellow parts are painted over gray plastic to make it as [[Show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] as possible. Among other notable plastic color changes, the [[TakaraTomy]] version features a clear colorless right hand (instead of translucent blue). The Hong Kong release of the toy features a shiny metallic gold finish instead.

: The box flap features the quote "''Angels will rain down like visitors from heaven!''" from the first movie.

: Beginning in March, ''Masterpiece'' Bumblebee was involved in two different [[campaign item|promotional giveaways]] in Japan. Bic Camera and Yodobashi Camera stores offered the [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]] [[Mini-Con|Micron]] [[Spoilsport#United|Spoilsport]] with the purchase of ''Masterpiece'' Bumblebee, while, [[Toys"R"Us]] offered the Targetmaster Micron [[Caliburst (G1)#United|Caliburst]] with purchase.

:After 7 years, the second ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece Movie Series]]'' Bumblebee is its own dedicated mold rather than a repaint and is also based upon his body from the first live-action film. Does it convert? Does it ever!

:As usual, he transforms from a roughly Voyager-sized robot that scales with the Generation 1 ''Masterpiece'' Autobot Cars. He, however, does NOT turn into a Concept Camaro seen in the first live-action movie, but rather the production model 2010 Camaro SS. His yellow is also inaccurate: The MPM is casted in Rally Yellow, and not the PBC-30 Sunrise that is used in the film. The latter inaccuracy is possibly due to licensing restrictions, as PBC-30 is not a factory option. His right hand can be replaced with a Stinger Blaster, which can be stored in the vehicle mode. He also features die-cast parts on his bottom legs & his feet.

:Some units feature misassembled waist tabs. Although stock photos shows his tire rims being painted silver, the actual product has tire rims painted in Chevy’s Midnight Silver, which was used as an optional paint for the 2010's Camaros.

:The Japanese release omits the paint applications on the eyes to allow for light piping, and it features a less dark shading on the blaster weapon. As with most TakaraTomy toys, It also uses black screws over unpainted screws.

:In the United States, Canada, Australia, and Hasbro's Asian markets, ''Masterpiece Movie Series'' Bumblebee was exclusively available from [[Toys"R"Us]], as was TakaraTomy's Japanese release. He was also initially released in the Transformers Atrium Fair in Takashimaya B2 Atrium located at Singapore, limited to 300 pieces. In Spain, meanwhile, he saw a wider release, being at least available via the Spanish subsidiaries of [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] and Carrefour, as well as the department store chain El Corte Inglés. It's currently unknown if he was also available in stores, or limited to online purchases. In Greece, he was officially available via at least one toy store chain, aptly named simply "Toys-Shop", but again might have been available online only.

:For accessories, he comes with a battle mask that fits over his head, and Stinger Blaster and Sword alternate arms replacing the hands and part of the forearms. The unused arm parts and the battle mask can be stored on the robot's back. As an additional gimmick, the headlights on his chest can be lifted up to reveal missile racks.

(This weapon is also depicted on Starscream's side of the instructions, confusing matters of ownership a bit.)

:Care must be taken while rolling Cybertronian Bumblebee's vehicle: pushing down while moving the vehicle forward can chip the paint underneath the hip section.

: Commemorating a hilarious and probably very expensive moment of stupidity on the ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon]]'' set wherein a {{w|Metropolitan Police Department|Metropolitan Police Department}} SUV was hit by a Bumblebee stunt car during filming, Bumblebee is a [[redeco]] of his Action Set toy (which uses his first ''Dark of the Moon'' Legion-Class figure) and is painted to hilariously have damage in the front of his vehicle mode. His [[Mobile Battle Bunker#CybertronianWarriors|Mobile Battle Bunker]] has been redecoed to be gray and had the jetpack slightly retooled.

: He was packaged in a Toys"R"Us-exclusive multi-pack with redecoed versions of [[Ironhide (Movie)/toys#CybertronianWarriors|Ironhide]], [[Crankcase (DOTM)#CybertronianWarriors|Crankcase]] (in a deco based on the aforementioned police SUV), and [[Barricade (Movie)/toys#CybertronianWarriors|Barricade]]. With matching paint jobs (the dark grayish black and bronze are near perfect matches), it appears as if the Bunker was intended to go with the included Ironhide more so than the included Bumblebee.

**''Accessories:'' MechTech Blaster/[[Plasma cannon|Plasma Cannon]]
{{toydesigner|[[Takio Ejima]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Deluxe Class figures, Bumblebee transforms into a customized 2011 Camaro Concept. Bumblebee comes with a [[MechTech]] weapon which is a "Blaster" weapon, which opens up into a larger "Plasma Cannon" when its lever is pulled, but it springs back into its original position once the lever is released. The MechTech weapon can be held in his hands, attach via [[5 mm post|5 mm pegholes]]/MechTech ports on his forearms, or plug in a "concealed" 5 mm peg hole on the vehicle mode's roof. Two extraneous 5 mm peg holes are also located on his vehicle mode hood flap and can be flipped up and used in robot mode to shoulder-mount weapons beside his head. Additionally, [[C joint]] bars are sculpted into Bumblebee's forearms. His pair of hands features poseable fingers (albeit 4+1), and it can be formed into a 5 mm compatible hand if adjusted properly.

:Bumblebee can form a semi-Stealth Force configuration by lifting up the rear half of his roof, exposing concealed cannons sculpted in translucent blue plastic. Also of note in vehicle mode is the sculpted Camaro SS badging near the doors, which doesn't appear on any other ''Dark of the Moon'' Bumblebee toy or the prop vehicles used for filming.

:Just like his CG robot model, his [[package art]] depicts his racing stripes being pinstripe-bordered despite his toy no longer having it. Whoops.

:Bumblebee is currently being sold in Universal theme parks in new packaging based on the ride. He is advertised as a Universal Studios Exclusive, molded in slightly different colors compared to his original widespread release, and also has some gold paint on his knees that the original did not have. This mold was also used to make ''Movie The Best'' [[Laserbeak (DOTM)#Movie The Best|Laserbeak]].

He features five MechTech ports in vehicle mode: one on the hood, two of the roof and two behind his rear wheels. In robot mode, both of his arms have one MechTech port each, and the ports from vehicle mode can still be used.

:This [[Walmart]]-[[exclusive]] Bumblebee (also sold at Sainsbury's stores in the United Kingdom) is a redeco of the [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|2007 ''Transformers'']] Deluxe Class Concept Camaro Bumblebee, with the standard production model Chevrolet Camaro front end as compared to the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' ZL1 version and the first reuse of the 2007 mold, both hands and the hand-held [[plasma cannon]]/energy blade weapon. However, he ''does'' have the retooled shoulder panels that are held in place with screws (first introduced with ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Alliance Bumblebee).

:Bumblebee features many different ''Transformers'' [[insignia]]s from across different continuities, namely; [[:File:Ancient Autobot Symbol.png|Generation 1 Prehistory Autobot]], [[:File:Minicon symbol.png|Armada Mini-Con]], [[:File:Sumdac Systems.PNG|Animated Sumdac Systems]], [[:File:Playschool Go-Bots G.png|Playschool Go-Bot]], [[S.T.A.R.S.]], "FLY [[Omega Supreme (disambiguation)|Ω SUPREME]]", [[G.B.

:The [[stock photography|stock photos]] on the back of his packaging are quite strange, depicting a significantly different deco, with the primary color for his vehicle mode gradually fading from yellow to red towards the bottom, and parts of his abdomen sporting the same red color. In addition, his handheld weapon's blade sports a clear blue color. The final toy, by contrast, features no red at all, and his blade is cast in clear black plastic. Furthermore, the stock photos depict his eyes as bright blue, whereas the final toy's eyes are painted black. On top of that, the stock photos contradict ''each other'', with the photo of his robot mode depicting clear blue windows, whereas the photo of his vehicle mode depicts opaque ''black'' windows.

: Released in the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Leader Class figures, this version of Bumblebee is smaller than his previous Leader-sized incarnations and, ''technically'', is his first Leader-class toy. Along with the update to his Dark of the Moon form, this is also the first toy to feature a (sculpted) "900 STRA" [[license plate]] (the one used for the prop cars for all three movies). Being different in proportions to his other toys, this Bumblebee seems to have inspired his later "[[#NitroBee|Nitro Bumblebee]]" toy, having a much bulkier torso and smaller arms, with the entire hood pieces being deformed into his chest.

: The main gimmick is that he comes with a ''massive'' MechTech backpack, which hooks onto his back window/back, and is the sole electronic component of the toy. It resembles a [[jet pack|jet-pack]], and features missile pods and a cannon, all of which emit lights and sounds when pressed, and can be positioned for either robot or vehicle mode. Pressing the missile pod housings will emit orange lights and play the sound of a barrage of missiles being launched while pressing the cannon will prop up a targeting sight, emit green lights, and play the sound of the cannon deploying/charging and firing a powerful-sounding blast. The weapons can be deployed/retracted when the brown panel on the top-left of the backpack is slid, making the [[Transformation#The noise|transformation noise]] in the process (with an additional mechanical impact sound after deploying). There are a total of five MechTech ports and four [[C joint]] bars on the backpack, with a port and bar on each missile pod, a port on the side of the cannon barrel, a port on the sliding panel, a port on the top-center of the backpack, and a bar on top of each battery compartment.

: Bumblebee can also transform into his [[Stealth Force]] attack vehicle mode, wherein his hood portions split forward and open, his doors open and hinge up, his robot arms swing out from the sides to aim, his plasma cannon extends, and his backpack is attached and deployed, with dedicated pegs to help secure his doors, arms, and shoulders. Finally, like a few other Bumblebee toys, he also features a flip-down battle mask.

: Unfortunately, while Bumblebee has rotational leg [[articulation]], they're ''below'' the knees, limiting their usefulness. Even more unfortunately, while he's perfectly stable on his own, plugging in his backpack in robot mode will make him ''very'' back-heavy, resulting in significant balance issues and limitation of poseability due to his [[Ratchet (mechanism)|ratchet joint]]s not being strong enough to handle the additional weight on one side. Posing him to lean forwards or posing his legs further to his back may remedy this.

: His secondary stock photos are slightly mistransformed: his shoulder collars are not folded out. Ironically; this mistranformation ''also allows'' the head to move slightly freely.

{{toydesigner|[[Lenny Panzica]] (Hasbro)}}

:As with other Dark of the Moon Activators toys, this Bumblebee figure (released under the [[Robo Power]] subline) is a very simple one-step transformation toy. Transformation consists of positioning him on the large blue section to the rear of his vehicle mode and pressing down, causing his components to shift around and reveal his robot parts; from there, one just has to rotate out his arms. Transformation back to vehicle mode is done by reversing the steps.

:Bumblebee was packaged in vehicle mode on an open, bubble-less card and tied down with twist-ties around the body of his truck form so that he couldn't be transformed in package.

:[http://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/110058-question-robo-power-activators/ At least one report] has surfaced of a brand-new figure missing one of the locking tabs that work the spring-loaded transformation mechanism, leaving the figure unable to transform properly.

This set would later see slight production changes; the only notable change to Bee is that his tampographs have gone back to thicker lines and being a bit sloppier, something that happened to all of the figures in the set.

: In 2020, the set was revamped ''again'', removing Evac and replacing him with the [[N.E.S.T. Sentry]]. The other figures in the set are unchanged from their thicker-tampograph 2015-body versions.

: Available only at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores in the US, Canada, the UK and Germany, this two-pack contains a Deluxe Class Bumblebee based on the new form he acquires part way through the ''Age of Extinction'' film, transforming into a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro concept. He includes two 'fake kibble' hubcaps, which can be screen-accurately mounted on his back, removed and held as throwing star weapons, or store underneath his vehicle mode. Additionally, his right forearm features a flip-out cannon, and his head sports a flip down battle mask (which is inaccurate to the actual battle mask in the film). The car windows on his forearms can be flipped down to represent the missile launchers he uses in the movie. Bumblebee cannot transform into vehicle mode with his Shurikens pegged on his back.

: The two-pack also includes a 'Classic' Bumblebee [[redeco]]ed from the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Generations|Legends Class Bumblebee]], cast in a slightly lighter yellow with blue headlights and taillights and armed with a black and yellow redeco of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[Jolt (ROTF)#Deluxe Class toys 3|Deluxe Jolt]]'s [[MechTech]] weapon. In most regions, this pack was released ahead of the ''Age of Extinction'' Deluxe figure's single-carded release.

The box features Japanese translated versions of the English text on the front and a sticker on the back confirming that this was a Japanese release.

:Most promotional images featuring this figure (like the one above), except the ones from Takara, have Bumblebee mistransformed, with his shoulders not folded down correctly and his front bumper/grille not folded down into his chest.

:This Bumblebee is a ''slight'' redeco of the second [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|''The Last Knight Premier Edition'' Deluxe Class figure]], with darker yellow plastic and paint seen in the first ''Movie The Best'' figure above. He also sports some tooling changes: Notably, the arm cannon is a different tooling that is the mirror opposite of the version available with the original release, and thus it is designed to attach to the ''right'' arm instead of the left one. Less notable is the addition of a [[C joint|3 mm peg]] to the right forearm to make it a mirror opposite of its left counterpart, allowing it to be attached to the back while the cannon is attached to the arm. Additionally, he comes with a new hammer accessory (hence the name) based on the hammer Bee used during his fight with Nemesis Prime in ''The Last Knight''. The Hammer can also be stored onto the rear hip, or onto Bumblebee's vehicle spoiler, mounted along with the Stinger Blaster. All the new pieces are made from the same tooling, resulting in slightly mismatched forearms, with the new right one made of gray plastic painted orange and silver while the left one is made of orange plastic with silver paint.

Stock photos for his robot mode are mistransformed: his shoulder armors are not folded down.

:[[Tiny Turbo Changers]] Bumblebee is a small, stumpy, soft-plastic [[blindpacking|blind-bagged]] mini-figure that changes from robot to a Concept Camaro 2016 with just a few simple steps. He features hands that are compatible with ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' weapons and other 3 mm post accessories. Like all Tiny Turbo Changers, his vehicle-mode tires do not spin, sorry. His legs are attached backwards in package. However, his legs can be easily dismantled from the hood/feet & the waist, flipping the legs backwards, and reassembled.

:Despite bearing the Concept Camaro 2016-ish vehicle mode, his robot mode sculpt and paint applications resemble his appearance in ''Age of Extinction''.

:He and the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#TinyTurboChanger|Optimus Prime]] were available in the first two series of the line, with no noteworthy changes between releases – even Bumblebee's misassembled legs and their bag codes remain unchanged. Their instruction books were, however, updated to say "Series 2".

:Bumblebee was re-released in the second wave of the Premier Edition Deluxe line, and now features a black section on the car roof & the rear section of the vehicle shell. The easiest way to identify the variant is by looking at the bottom rear piece while the figure is in-package, as the black paint can be seen through the clear plastic. This variant also applies to the TakaraTomy release of the figure. Due to this, the initial variant became less common.

:On many copies of this toy, the pegs securing the feet come undone easily, making the feet floppy, while some parts like the "wings" are prone to becoming detached. Despite what the instructions say, the left arm should be pulled sideways out of the joint instead of down to prevent breakage of the connection. On several occasions, the only way to secure the feet's pegs is by pressing the pieces together firmly. (Make sure the pieces are properly adjusted.)

:The TakaraTomy stock photo of the robot mode has the waist kibble slightly mistransformed.

**''Accessories'': 2 projectiles (1977 Camaro Bumblebee), Missile (1967 Camaro Bumblebee), Detachable Arm Cannon (2016 Camaro Bumblebee)

:''[[Transformers Tribute]]'' Bumblebee Evolution 3-pack consists of redecos of [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys|the first Deluxe Class Bumblebee figure from the 2007 Movie]], [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys 5|High Octane Bumblebee from ''Age of Extinction'']], and the most recent, [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#ThirdTLKDeluxe|second ''Premier Edition'' Bumblebee figure]]. The 3-pack features particularly unique packaging, modeled after a garage, complete with graffiti.

:For the 1977 Camaro Bumblebee figure, he uses the opaque windows from the Hasbro release and the fixed Automorph gimmick from the Towed to Safety and the Evolution of a Hero 2-packs. Paint operations on this Bumblebee are minimized compared to his original release, omitting the battle damage on the vehicle mode and some smaller details of his robot mode such as the blue stripes on his thighs and parts of his face. The Automorph button does not use the painted stripes from the Evolution of a Hero 2-pack.

:The 1967 Camaro Bumblebee figure keeps the paint layout of its original "High Octane" release, but features several plastic color differences: The yellow parts are changed from a darker, more orange-y tone to the same lighter shade of yellow plastic shared among all the figures in this set, with the yellow paint operations and tampographs in vehicle mode changed accordingly, all the charcoal-colored parts are replaced by black plastic, the missile (and all of the unpaintable plastic joints) is changed from black to yellow, the baby blue paint operations for the eyes are changed to a darker tone, and the fully transparent windows are now a slightly tinted translucent plastic.

:The 2017 Camaro Bumblebee figure also features smoky translucent plastic in his windows as opposed to the original's entirely transparent ones. The Hasbro stock photo for his robot mode still depicts him holding his arm cannon as a gun. This also applies to Takara's secondary stock photos. Speaking of Takara, his vehicle mode roof is also slightly mistransformed.

:The set also saw release as an Amazon Japan exclusive.

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Studio Series]]'' Deluxe Class toys, Bumblebee transforms into a yellow 1977 Chevrolet Camaro based on his appearance in the first live-action ''Transformers'' movie in 22 steps. He recycles the engineering of [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|''The Last Knight Premier Edition'' Bumblebee]] with all new parts, and is slightly smaller than said mold to fit in the new ''Studio Series'' scale. As a consequence of borrowing sculpting from the ''Premier Edition'' figure, this version of Bumblebee has some inaccuracies, including the arrows on top of his head, the panels on top of his shoulders, and the design of his forearms and thighs. Bumblebee uses a [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|fake]] front grill on his robot mode chest, which the real grill slides over in vehicle mode. He also features rectangular holes on his lower front bumper, the rocker panels, the rear end of the front hood, and the lower valance, all meant for a [[#SS15|later release]].

:Bumblebee includes a cardboard backdrop display depicting his encounter with [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] and a Stinger Blaster based on the one from the ''Premier Edition'' figure, though mirrored to accurately attach to the right arm like the [[#MB18|''Movie The Best'' War Hammer Bumblebee]] toy. This version replaces the forearm using a hex peg instead of swapping at the bicep joint. The blaster/forearm stores behind the waist when not in use. The blaster can be mounted onto the rear bumper in vehicle mode.

:Depending on the individual sample's quality control, Bumblebee has some problems with parts (notably the rear section of the vehicle) refusing to lock together and continually detaching from their proper position thanks to some tolerance issues. His lack of pins on the car roof, combined with said quality control issues, make the transformation ''absolute hell'' if followed by the instructions. Thankfully, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bm921hDELGM ways] have been found to transform him to help remedy this problem. Also, be careful with the shin pieces as they can collide during transformation, scraping off the yellow paint.

:Bumblebee, along with the rest of Wave 1 Deluxes, was made available at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] following New York [[Toy Fair 2018]], two months ahead of the scheduled brick and mortar release. The second run of the toy features a running change that eventually amends the quality control issues that plagued the first run. The fixed version's date code is written as "80201". Sadly some copies carrying this code still have the QC issues from the original figure.

:This ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee is a redeco of the above figure, featuring ''mostly'' screen-accurate weathering on the vehicle shells; the back of the roof is missing a large rust spot and there is extra rust on the doors and back. He was an exclusive Lucky Draw prize in a contest only accessible to people who bought ''Studio Series'' figures on May 15th from Hasbro China's official TaoBao online shop. There were only 300 Bumblebees made, and he was packaged in vehicle mode. This release uses the second run of the toy.

**''Movie'': '''''Bumblebee'''''
**''ID number'': '''15'''
**''Accessories'': Detachable Stinger Blaster, bumper, 2 rocker panels, 2 spoilers, 2 hoods, [[Charlie Watson#Studio Series|Charlie Watson]] figurine, "Highway Freedom" backdrop

:This ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee is a redeco of the above ''Studio Series'' 01 toy, featuring new customizable parts (front bumper, rocker panels, two spoiler options, and two hood options) for his vehicle mode to evoke the look of a muscle car (while making use of the rectangular holes from the original toy), though they prevent him from fully transforming into robot mode while attached (with the exception of the car hoods). The set includes a Charlie Watson [[Slug figure|figurine]] wearing a shirt with the ''Bumblebee'' logo. Compared to the first ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee toy, he has a black front grill with extra yellow paint on his hands and shoulders, but loses the striping on the vehicle shells and chest, the silver on the feet and on the blaster's arm guard, and the paint on his torso flap. Instead, a vast sticker sheet is included with multiple different decals to customize the figure.

:This set was originally intended as a [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive and had the working name "Rebekah's Garage" (presumably the name of the originally intended backdrop scene; the general retail wave 3 figure listed below has a "Charlie's Garage" backdrop), but because of Toys"R"Us's bankruptcy, those plans were changed. After having been found at a single [[Target]] store in the United States before it was even officially announced, it was revealed as an alleged [[Entertainment Earth]] "exclusive", but was simultaneously also listed by competing online retailers such as [[BigBadToyStore]] and ToyWiz, in many instances still under the old working name. It ''was'' released as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in Canada, with store price tags featuring yet ''another'' working name, "Street Racer Set". Neither name can be found on the packaging, which simply calls the figure "Bumblebee" with no additional prefix or suffix, and the included backdrop is "Highway Freedom", depicting a scenic coastal drive.

:All stock photos of the toy's robot mode are mistransformed: his back kibble/car roof is not folded into his back. They also have his blaster jammed over his right hand instead of swapping out the arm. Best not to replicate this as it may damage the parts.

**''Hasbro ID number'': '''18'''
**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''SS-16'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[October 27]], 2018
**''Accessories'': Detachable Gatling Gun, arm blade, battle-mask face, "Charlie's Garage" backdrop

:Part of the third wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, Bumblebee transforms from a robot based on the ''Bumblebee'' film into a 1967 Volkswagen Beetle and back! He is based on concept art for the film, and thus has numerous inaccurate details, most notably the large door wings that weren't present on the final design. At the time, he was one of the smallest Deluxes in ''Studio Series'', standing at the same height as [[Jazz (Movie)#Studio Series|Jazz]], due to his small stature in the ''Bumblebee'' film itself.

:He comes with a detachable right Gatling Gun arm, an arm blade that can be attached to either forearm, and a battle mask that can be switched out with his removable face. All his accessories can be attached to the underside of his car or to his back in robot mode, with the unused face hanging off one of his smaller door wings. Bumblebee cannot be transformed with his Gatling gun arm on. Also included is a backdrop showing Charlie’s garage.

:Like the first ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee, this figure also suffers from several design flaws exacerbated by potential quality control issues. Due to the tolerance-altering layers of paint involved, the connection between the face pieces and the back of the head can either be too tight or pop off easily, potentially causing paint chipping. Meanwhile, his vehicle mode's kibble has some minor tabbing issues, notably on the waist piece. His 5 mm-compatible hands are prone to popping out if rotated back too far, and his door wings in robot mode have a tendency to flop over time. However, a gradual running change seems to have fixed these errors almost entirely.

:The vehicle hood and roof that forms his backpack is meant to lock securely into a groove on his upper back in robot mode, but there are two tabs along his back that make this process ''very'' difficult and pose the risk of breaking the translucent plastic hinge that has to be forced over them during transformation. While the first tab, located on his waist, is required to store his gun arm, the second tab just below the groove can be sanded down to ease transformation.

:TakaraTomy stock photos of the figure are actually those of their [[#7NetBattleDamage|rusty redeco]] of the figure, as evidenced by the missing silver paint on his feet and remnants of the added rust deco that were not completely edited out. This also makes the photos an unintentional reveal of the [[#SS24|Then & Now Bumblebee]] figure. One of the robot mode stock photos is also slightly mistransformed: his chest pieces are not locked correctly.

:To commemorate the ''Bumblebee'' movie, this ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee is a redeco of the [[#Studio Series|1977 Camaro mold]] based on the 1978-81 Camaro Z28, featuring smokier windows, dark gold plastic, and gold painted vehicle parts. He also features a different vehicle striping with miniature ''Bumblebee'' logos and a "Z28" label. In addition, the set uses a lineup number of 19, the second Hasbro exclusive in ''Studio Series'' to possess a number after [[Thundercracker (Movie)#Studio Series|Thundercracker]]. This Bumblebee uses the second run of the mold, which appears to be much more stable than the initial retail release.

:The real selling point of this set is the addition of two ''Japanese-original'' Mini-Cassettes: [[Dairu#Toys|Dairu]] and [[Uruaz#Toys|Uruaz]], the first ever Hasbro releases of the molds.

:This set also bucks the typical ''Studio Series'' packaging design, having a special cassette-styled box inside of a decorated sleeve and omitting the line’s signature backdrop displays. The back of the sleeve lists [[User:BluJayWarrior/SSRetroSongReferences|Transformers-themed parodies]] of real song titles and amusingly includes a disclaimer saying “Product does not contain music”.

:This set debuted at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2018 and was later made available via Hasbro Toy Shop. It also saw later release at Paris Comic-Con 2018 and in Japan as Tokyo Comic Con 2018 and TakaraTomy Mall exclusives. In Taiwan, this set was available at general retail.

:This ''Studio Series'' two-pack consists of 24 "Bumblebee 1967 Volkswagen Beetle", a redeco of the [[#SS18|Beetle mold]], and 25 "Bumblebee 2016 Chevrolet Camaro", a redeco of the second [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|''Premier Edition'' mold]]. This Beetle Bumblebee features a number of rusty paint applications along the sides and front of the car and the silver paint operations are removed from his feet, which was previously seen in the TakaraTomy stock photo of the individual release. Additionally, the Autobot symbol on his non-battle mask face is larger. Deco omissions on the Camaro Bumblebee include the silver on the shins and shoulders. There is more black paint on the rocker panels and the front bumper.

:Both figures come with individual deluxe-sized backdrops, though they share one instruction sheet. The "California Hideout" backdrop is identical to the "Charlie's Garage" backdrop included with the first Beetle release. The Camaro Bumblebee’s backdrop depicts his chase through the streets of [[London]].

:The CG renders on the packaging depict the Beetle Bumblebee having silver paint on his feet, while the Camaro Bumblebee has the silver paint on his biceps, shins, and kneecaps.

:The name "Bumblebee Then & Now Two-Pack" comes from their BigBadToyStore listing<ref>''Studio Series'' Bumblebee Then & Now Two-Pack at [https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/87393 BigBadToyStore]</ref> and display names at conventions. The final set only has the names of the individual figures.

:The set was initially exclusive to Target in the U.S., and later, BigBadToyStore. The Beetle Bumblebee figure was released as an exclusive for Japan's 7net site (see below). Target reissued the set in 2021.

**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''SS-19'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[January 26]], 2019
**''Accessories'': Pistol, hammer, "WWII Flashback" backdrop

:Part of the fifth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, "WWII Bumblebee" is based on his appearance during [[World War II]] in ''The Last Knight''. Rather than transforming into the Mercedes-Benz car as seen in the movie, he transforms into an armored car as in [[Josh Nizzi]]'s concept art for the character — though it's a ''different'' armored car, being a {{W|Humber Light Reconnaissance Car}} rather than a {{w|Humber Scout Car}}! The vehicle parts feature a subtle olive paint wash. In a near-unnoticeable detail, the Autobot insignia can barely be seen on his forehead as it blends in ''too'' well with the green plastic.

:Bumblebee's Warhammer, based on the one used in World War II (and can double as a monotone version of the warhammer used in his fight against Optimus), doubles as a vehicle mode artillery barrel, with his handgun transforming into a top-mounted turret. While the turret base can be rotated, the pistol's handle is loose enough to swivel while mounted on, rendering the feature pointless. The hammer can be mounted on his robot back, and can be rotated to have the handle pointing upwards like in the movie. The gun has no designated storage in robot mode, but the backpack can be transformed into its vehicle mode configuration to store both weapons. The backdrop displays the Allied assault on a Nazi building. Bumblebee only comes with one gun despite wielding two of them in this scene.

:WWII Bumblebee also features a pseudo-[[Automorph Technology|Automorph gimmick]]: His front chest panel can be pushed up/down, extending/retracting his head. Due to his transformation scheme, WWII Bumblebee is a [[shellformer]], with the majority of the vehicle shells hanging on his rear. The kibble backpack also blocks the 3 mm hole for display stands unless it's slightly lifted up. In a rather baffling design flaw, the holes on the chest panel are seemingly meant to lock with the shoulder joints' tabs, but they are too far apart to be tabbed in. On the bright side, the arms are not easily dislodged further from the central body as the backpack holds the shoulder assembly in place.

:This mold was retooled into [[Hot Rod (DOTM)#Studio Series|WWII Hot Rod]].

**''Accessories'': Detachable Stinger Blaster, "[[Bolivia's Finest Quality Used Cars and Petting Zoo|Used Car Shopping]]" backdrop

:Part of the fifth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, "Clunker Bumblebee" is a redeco of the [[#Studio Series|''Studio Series'' 1977 Camaro Bumblebee]], sporting a deco representing the beat-up look he had when first found by Sam, and even comes with a backdrop of [[Bolivia's Finest Quality Used Cars and Petting Zoo]]!

:The deco seems to be based on the [[#SSTaoBao|Taobao giveaway figure]] (or perhaps, using the same slightly inaccurate reference), though not as finely detailed. Consequently, he is missing a large rust spot on the back of the roof and there is extra rust on the doors and back, among other differences. There are also other paint changes on this figure: his chest's stripes and stomach's paint apps are omitted like the [[#SS15|Charlie Watson multipack]], the rear vehicle stripes are shortened, and the Stinger Blaster is entirely coated in silver (except the pegs). Some yellow paint is omitted from his forearms and the painted pegs on the feet that connect with the thighs in vehicle mode are removed. The Autobot symbol on his forehead is also slightly narrower.

:This release of the mold finally adds pins for the car roof's midsection, which prevents it from falling off during transformation.

**''Accessories'': Stinger Blaster, "City Tunnel Switch" backdrop

:The fifth general retail Bumblebee figure in the ''Studio Series'' lineup, this Bumblebee represents his updated form in the 2007 ''Transformers'' movie and transforms in a whopping 39 steps, with some transformation cues taken from his ''Studio Series'' [[#Studio Series|1977 Camaro version]] and from the ''Dark of the Moon'' [[#NitroBee|Nitro Bumblebee]] mold. Like the [[#MPM3|''Masterpiece Movie'' figure]], this Bumblebee does not actually turn into his screen-accurate 2006 Camaro Concept, but rather a production 2010 Camaro, likely due to licensing. Notable differences are the shaping of the front bumper and the inclusion of an antenna on the roof.

:His head comes with a non-removable battle mask, which is on the same size ball joint as the original and Clunker versions of Bumblebee in this line, allowing you to easily swap the heads. Unlike the past ''Studio Series'' Camaro Bees, he has a Stinger Blaster that can simply be plugged into his hand, without the need to replace his arm. The blaster can be stored on the back of his robot or car mode. Because of the physical space needed to store the arms in vehicle mode, Bumblebee has a thin waist (with a front stomach panel to compensate) when viewed from the side. Though not depicted at right, his door-wings can be tilted upward to more accurately replicate their orientation in the movie. He comes with a cardboard backdrop display based on the tunnel interior where he scanned his new vehicle mode in ''Transformers''.

:As was undeniably inevitable, ''Studio Series'' "B-127" is a retool/redeco of [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Studio Series|Cliffjumper]], the mold itself being a retool of the above Offroad Bumblebee mold. This figure is based on Bumblebee's Cybertronian form in the ''Bumblebee'' film, transforming into a yellow Cybertronian car. The arms, thighs, and pelvis are inaccurate to this version of the character as they are reused from Offroad Bumblebee, not to mention the lack of yellow paint on the shoulders and thighs. He features a battle mask head that can be swapped with Offroad Bee's unmasked head, though the yellow plastics between the two are slightly different shades.

:He comes with a redeco of the Gatling gun accessory with silver and gunmetal paint and a cardboard backdrop display depicting a war-torn Cybertron as it appears in the beginning of the film. The blaster stores under the canopy in alt mode and simply drops into a gap in the robot mode's backpack.

:Part of the thirteenth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, this Bumblebee is a general retail re-release of the ''[[Buzzworthy Bumblebee]]'' toy [[#BW74|below]] (though in all fairness, it's very likely this version was supposed to come out ''first'' had it not been for the sudden addition of the '86 figures to the ''Studio Series'' lineup). This figure, like his Buzzworthy release, is a slight recolor and remold of the above ''Studio Series'' 49 Bumblebee, with new wheels and front section of the car to reflect his 2010 Camaro Concept, a slightly resculpted blaster, and includes a static Sam Witwicky figurine. This version sports a more accurate orange-yellow color and new racing stripes, but also uses less accurate light gray plastic and silver paint applications, and has no paint on his feet. He is also conspicuously lacking black paint apps on the sides of his bumper, though this is more accurate to his robot mode. The box and cardboard backdrop depicting [[Operation: Firestorm]] are changed to the normal ''Studio Series'' graphics as opposed to ''Buzzworthy Bumblebee''. The box art reuses an old image of Bumblebee with his shoulder cannons, which are not included with this release.

:''Studio Series'' "N.E.S.T. Bumblebee" is a desaturated gray and silver redeco of the above [[#SS57|Offroad Bumblebee]], with a nameless repack of the Sam Witwicky figure originally included with [[#BW74|74BB ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Bumblebee]], which was meant to depict [[NEST]] personnel (dubbed "Officer Walken" by designer [[Mark Maher]]). Bumblebee also features clear green headlights and windows, and the Universal Studios version of the NEST/Autobot emblem on his hood. Though not based on the films, his color scheme of gray with subtle green highlights and an organization badge coincidentally evokes the [[#Daredevil|''Dark of the Moon'' Autobot Daredevil Squad Bumblebee]]. Maher envisioned this figure as being a drone built by NEST, but this is not reflected in the final product description.

:The seemingly odd choice for this figure's coloration is explained by the fact that it was originally intended for [[Transformers: Universal Studios|Universal Studios]]'s ''[[Transformers: The Ride – 3D]]'', just like "[[Megatron (Movie)/toys#SSUniversal|As Seen In Parks Megatron]]", but due to the global {{w|COVID-19 pandemic}}, [[Universal]] had to temporarily close its theme parks. Looking for another outlet to release the two figures instead of waiting for the pandemic to be over, Hasbro made them both available as "shared exclusives" between several online retailers in the US, such as [[Hasbro Pulse]], [[BigBadToyStore]], or [[Entertainment Earth]]. While it was too late to completely redesign Megatron's packaging, N.E.S.T.

:Part of the seventeenth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, Bumblebee is now based on his ''Dark of the Moon'' appearance. He's a significant, if subtle, retool of the [[#SS49|''Studio Series'' 49 mold]], featuring all new parts for his alt mode, except for the clear parts, roof, and door hinges, to accurately replicate his 2011 Camaro SS mode (and finally making the antenna on the roof accurate). In robot mode, he features a new armored faux chest and a slightly modified unmasked headsculpt, though it is lacking the usual Autobot symbol tampograph. He is missing the panels on top of his shoulders (ironically, they were inaccurately added to the [[#Studio Series|1977 Camaro mold]]) and the smaller wings are still made of his windows instead of the spoiler. He is also lacking paint on his feet, parts of his shoulders, and the rear vehicle stripes, in exchange for paint apps on his bumpers, roof, and chest. This is the first version of the mold to correctly leave the tops of the door windows unpainted. Bumblebee comes with yet another slightly resculpted Stinger Blaster, which can be handheld and stores on his back or on the rear of the car.

:Like the other ''Studio Series'' toys, the interior of the package forms a display backdrop, depicting the Battle of Chicago. Hasbro stock images and CG renders forgot to fold down his secondary wings, while the former also has his chest mistransformed. The box art actually depicts Bumblebee in his ''Revenge of the Fallen'' design, though it was a new render used to promote ''Dark of the Moon''.

:Bumblebee and his wavemates were revealed on [[May 10]], 2022, with preorders coming up the same day. Unusually for a modern ''Generations'' release, Bumblebee was revealed by [[TakaraTomy]] before [[Hasbro]], which usually unveils upcoming toys before or simultaneously with TakaraTomy.

**''Movie'': '''''Transformers'''''
**''ID number'': '''49'''
**''Accessories'': Stinger Blaster, "Autobots Arrival" reversible backdrop

:"15th Anniversary" Bumblebee is a redeco/retool of the ''Studio Series'' 49 figure, featuring altered paint applications and plastic color changes. He utilizes the unmasked head from the above ''Dark of the Moon'' version, this time with the Autobot tampograph added, as well as the racing stripes from the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' version. On this version, the black plastic has been replaced with light gray, the yellow and dark gray plastics are lighter, and the clear plastic is a much darker translucent black. The gunmetal paint operations and headlights are now silver. Notably, paint applications were removed from his feet, faux chest, arm guards, and most of his shoulders.

:Some owners have noted that this version has much looser joints, especially in the legs, possibly from [[Mold#Deterioration|mold degradation]].

:This figure comes in an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive 5-pack alongside redecoes of ''Studio Series'' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Optimus Prime]], [[Ironhide (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Ironhide]], [[Ratchet (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Ratchet]] and [[Jazz (Movie)#SS15thAnniversary|Jazz]], released to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the first live-action [[Transformers (film)|''Transformers'' film]]. The pack comes with a unique reversible backdrop depicting the alley where the Autobots first met Sam on one side and the exterior of Sam's house on the other. Like the ''Dark of the Moon'' version, stock photos and renders for this Bumblebee leave the secondary wings untransformed.

{{toydesigner|[[Sam Smith]] (Hasbro), [[Ittoku Kuwazu]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:The 100th numbered release in ''Studio Series'', this Deluxe Bumblebee is based on his appearance in ''[[Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (film)|Transformers: Rise of the Beasts]]'', transforming into a licensed 1977 Camaro with off-road modifications. He has black stripes on the roof that are inaccurate to the movie and is missing the Autobot symbol on his forehead. In a rare move, this toy features separate clear pieces for the windows.

:He comes with his Stinger Blaster and an arm blade. The blaster clips over his right hand. The unpainted arm blade attaches to either arm and is compatible with past ''Studio Series [[#SS18|Bumblebee]]'' [[#SS57|movie]] [[#SS70|Bees]]. Both accessories can store on his wings in robot mode. In car mode, the sword stores underneath while the blaster attaches to the rear. His backdrop depicts the volcanic final battle. His instructions have a small error, it shows folding the light segments up for transformation, which is their robot mode position. They should be folded all the way down, and will then click to horizontal when you push the grill into place.

:According to Sam Smith, the blade was originally intended for an "alternate release" before being packed in with this one. The blade ultimately didn't appear in the movie itself, where Bee dual-wields blasters instead. The included blaster can be held in his left hand, albeit upside down and exposing the top of the hand. Ironically, the blaster is cast in yellow plastic painted over in gray, whereas it was still mostly yellow in the film. Though perhaps this is a moot point as this toy's blaster is still based on its ''Bumblebee'' design anyway.

:A [[variant]] of this Bumblebee was found with a more completely painted face in a darker silver, though this means his yellow cheeks have been inaccurately painted over as well. This variant became more common in later cases of the figure. The repack in Wave 22 no longer uses plastic-free packaging.

:Part of the seventh wave of ''[[Studio Series]]'' Core Class figures, Bumblebee is a retool of [[Laserbeak (DOTM)#SSCore|Laserbeak]] with a battle-masked head and additional tabs to lock his doors more securely in alt mode. He transforms into a licensed 2011 Concept Camaro and includes a [[Fire Blast effect]] compatible cannon that can be handheld or placed on the roof/robot's back.

:It would appear that this mold was partially based on the model of Deluxe Class [[#SS87|''Studio Series'' 87 Bumblebee]], as he retains the inner struts on the spoiler and the two slots on his rear bumper meant for the Deluxe's blaster, though at this scale they aren't compatible with anything.

:The packaging is decorated with artwork depicting the location in Chicago where Bee was nearly executed. The box art once again depicts his ''Revenge of the Fallen'' design rather than his ''Dark of the Moon'' one.

:Part of the twenty-seventh wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxes, ''Studio Series'' 116 Bumblebee is a heavy retool of the [[#SS18|1967 VW Beetle mold]], retaining most of the car parts with an all-new robot mode that is more accurate to his on-screen appearance, though it still has the original toy's lankier proportions. While he still has the inaccurate door wings, they can now swivel down to be somewhat hidden from view. The retooling also results in the rear side windows being painted and the unfortunate removal of his waist rotation.

:He comes with new gatling gun and arm blade accessories closer to their final designs. The gun plugs in his right hand like recent ''Studio Series'' Bumblebees instead of swapping with the arm like on the original mold. The blade can be used on either arm, but this time is not compatible with the arm ports on the previous ''Bumblebee'' Bumblebees and vice versa.

He's surprisingly complex and posable, sharing many broad engineering tricks with his ''Studio Series'' and ''Masterpiece'' incarnations. The major gimmick of this toy is the "Power Charge Core", a large translucent blue drum in his chest that, when rotated, makes numerous lights and sounds. In robot mode, it plays radio clips, while in vehicle mode, it makes various engine noises. He also features a deployable battle mask and arm-blade.

:Released as part of ''Bumblebee'' Energon Igniter's Speed Series line, this Bumblebee is a Legends/Legion-sized mold that transforms from robot into a licensed Volkswagen Beetle in just a few steps, and he features 3 mm compatible hands. Bumblebee can also be attached to the Energon Igniters core, and due to the toy being lightweight, it can propel his vehicle mode forward very quickly. As the port is 5 mm compatible, Bumblebee can mount with other smaller weapons with the same post size, making him an efficient weapon-towing vehicle. Due to being used with transformation, Bumblebee features a pair of well-articulated legs, as long you don't mind the Energon Igniters port sticking out from his left knee. Apart from the sculpted Volkswagen symbol on his front hood, Bumblebee doesn't have any single Autobot insignia tampographed or sculpted on.

:The instructions tell you that his front window panel needs to be clicked back and forth during transformation, though the said panel is super tight to the point of being reinforced. However, with a little strength of pushing it down, The panel can freely click as intended.

The figure's proportions and sculpted detail are significantly improved compared to his [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Legends Class toys|first Legends Class figure]], though the new transformation leaves him with a faux chest and no trademark door-wings. His vehicle mode is largely unpainted, save for a single black paint app for the windshield and hood stripes. The black unpaintable patches on the car roof evoke roof stripes... even though this vehicle mode never ''had'' that detailing. He also features pinned wheels instead of the simple-assembly ones. In a surprisingly near-unnoticeable detail, the Autobot Insignia is sculpted on his fake chest. He shares a similar transformation scheme with ''Robots in Disguise (2015)'' Legion Class [[Sideswipe (RID)#Legion Class|Sideswipe]].

:Due to minor [[Design flaw#Clipping issues|clipping issues]] and potentially a case of [[Design flaw#Inferior glue|inferior glue]], pulling out his arms/vehicle headlights while converting into robot mode with excessive force can snap his 3 mm hands from his arms. Thankfully, as the hands are separate pieces, you can glue them back on with relative ease. It is unknown how many copies suffer from this flaw. Also, stock photos of his robot mode depict his eyes being unpainted.

**''Accessories'': [[Sam Witwicky#Buzzworthy Bumblebee|Sam Witwicky]] figurine, Stinger Blaster, "[[Operation: Firestorm|Pyramid Desert Battle]]" backdrop (1st version)

:This version of Bumblebee is a [[retool]] and [[redeco]] of [[#SS49|''Studio Series'' 49 Bumblebee]] to match his appearance in the ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' film. The wheels, hood, front fenders, and front of the car have been remolded into his 2010 Camaro Concept mode. This version sports a more accurate orange-yellow color and new racing stripes, but also uses less accurate light gray plastic and silver paint applications, and has no paint on his feet. He is also conspicuously lacking black paint apps on the sides of his bumper, though this is more accurate to his robot mode. He comes with an additional Sam Witwicky [[Slug figure|figurine]] molded in a static running pose similar to his [[Sam Witwicky#Masterpiece Movie Series|''Movie Masterpiece'' toy]], but much smaller in size. He also comes with a slightly resculpted Stinger Blaster and a cardboard backdrop display depicting [[Operation: Firestorm]].

:Unlike the other ''Studio Series / Buzzworthy Bumblebee'' figures, this one was released before the [[#SS74|"regular" ''Studio Series'' release]] was even announced.

The gunmetal and silver paints are also a slightly darker shade. Replacing the battle mask head of the original, B-127 sports a fully painted unmasked head from the [[#SS57|Offroad Bumblebee]] figure, which B-127 was retooled from. B-127 also has additional yellow paint to visually connect the two faux vehicle parts on his chest better, though he lacks the gray paint on his torso that visually connected the gray plastic parts together. Compared to the [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Studio Series|Cliffjumper]] and the original B-127 toy, this B-127 features much tighter joints.

**''Accessories'': 2 bumper daggers, rollcage/"shield"

:Included as part of a Target-exclusive ''[[Buzzworthy Bumblebee]]'' "Jungle Mission 3-pack", this Bumblebee is another Deluxe Class iteration of the character that converts into a licensed off-road 1977 Camaro. His front bumper splits to become two hand-held daggers, and the rollcage that goes on his windshield can be attached to his left arm as a "shield". His right forearm can rotate to become a plasma cannon, which features a hexagonal 5 mm port in its barrel.

:The back of his head has a transparent section to allow for [[light-piping]], however the effect is mostly neutered since his eyes are painted over.

:This Bumblebee has two major [[design flaw]]s in robot mode: his neck has no locking point and the torso does not tab together securely, resulting the figure coming apart very easily when handling. His knees are also soft locked to only bend straight, 45, and 90 degrees.

*A weapon considered for Bumblebee was a pair of arm-mounted electrical [[Stinger (weapon)|stingers]]. The Bumblebee Camaro '09 toy's blade weapon might have been influenced by this early concept.
*[[Aaron Archer]] mentioned that when Hasbro received pictures of numerous toys of Bumblebee [[shelfwarmer|shelf-warming]], they finally realized that they had indeed gone overboard with his toys. Archer suggested a need for a certain amount of yellow-colored toys in each wave, hence the large amount of Bumblebees released per wave.

They include Scraphook's exhaust pipe and Axlegrease's two thrusters that can be used as cannons, but don't come with a hook. Jalopy's vehicle engine block splits to form two blasters as well. As with the original tooling, their lower elbow joints are made of a softer plastic, which often causes their arms to pop off when attempting to rotate or transform them, but they're just as easily reattached. Again, due to said softer plastic, it's generally impossible for them to wield medium-to-larger weapons unless the arms are raised horizontally to the front.

: Being a redeco/retool of the Scraphook/Axlegrease mold, Jalopy retains the [[Evo-Fusion]] function gimmick, analogous to the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System|Weaponizer]] gimmick from the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (franchise)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' toylines: Jalopy's body splits apart to form armor and weapon enhancements for their allies. Unlike previous figures of this nature, Jalopy does not need to be disassembled to change from robot to vehicle and back, similar to other ''Legacy'' Junkions.

[[File:Nightshade-earthspark-stock.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.1|Give a hoot! Read a book!]]

A [[Terran]] with a flair for the dramatic and boundless confidence, '''Nightshade Malto''' can seem weirdly distant at times. It's not that they're unfriendly by any measure: while they can certainly be glib and quick with a quip, they approach nearly everything and everyone with bright eyes and a huge smile. They're fascinated and delighted with the world they've found themselves in, and long to experience as much of it as possible. It's just that they'll do so on ''their'' terms. Nightshade prefers a quiet time reading rather than the energetic physical play of their siblings (or the endless online media onslaught that [[Hashtag (ES)|Hashtag]] enjoys). They're often in their lab tinkering away on some new device to aid their family, though they have a tendency to spring these surprises without warning, which can be awkward, or worse, depending on how ambitious Nightshade was feeling at the time. But as much time as they spend alone, they always come back in time, ever happy to join in family game nights and group celebrations.

But their bright, easygoing, giving nature should not be mistaken as weakness. Though they're generally averse to conflict, they do not abide threats to family, friends or even strangers they've just met, and they ''will'' fight with everything they have to protect those in need. Their incredible aerial maneuverability in both modes and quick thinking make them a very unpredictable opponent who aims to stop the fight as quickly as possible... after all, there are so many, many much nicer things to be doing.

Nightshade was brought to life at the same time as their other siblings [[Jawbreaker (ES)|Jawbreaker]] and [[Hashtag (ES)|Hashtag]] by the Malto siblings [[Mo Malto| Mo]] and [[Robby Malto| Robby]] via the [[Emberstone]] in the same cave where their other siblings, [[Twitch]] and [[Thrash (ES)|Thrash]], were first created. The otherwise happy moment was interrupted by a cave-in caused by a battle outside the cave between [[Optimus Prime (ES)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (ES)|Bumblebee]] against the Decepticon Seekers, [[Skywarp (ES)| Skywarp]] and [[Nova Storm (ES)| Nova Storm]]. {{storylink|Age of Evolution, Part 1}} Despite being only a few seconds old, Nightshade and the other new Terrans instinctually came to their new family's rescue by shielding them from the collapsing cave rubble.

Emerging from the collapsed cave, they were warmly greeted by Optimus, who inquired about Nightshade and their siblings' names. Unlike Hashtag and Jawbreaker, Nightshade instinctually knew their name right off the bat and said what a delight it was to meet them. Sensing the pain the other Maltos and Terrans felt about learning their [[Dot Malto|mother]] was held captive by someone called [[Mandroid]], Nightshade volunteered to help them. While planning "Operation: Terran Horse", Nightshade, via their connection to Mo through her [[cyber-sleeve]], informed Optimus their pronouns were "they" and "them" and that male or female pronouns didn't fit them. While infiltrating Mandroid's base with Jawbreaker and Hashtag by posing as Decepticons who had captured Optimus, Nightshade was unable to hide their horror at Mandroid's experiments he was performing on the captured [[Megatron (ES)|Megatron]]. Their ruse quickly exposed, a battle erupted that saw Mandroid's base turn into a walking mech that required the combined efforts of the Malto family and their allies to take down. Following the battle, Nightshade was formally introduced to Dot and welcomed into her family. {{storylink|Age of Evolution, Part 2}}

Now a formal member of the Malto household, Nightshade found the cramped living quarters of the family barn unsuitable as a living space for their Terran siblings and set out to construct a new one. They covertly ended up recruiting Thrash to aide them in this, who was looking to try and bond with his new younger sibling. When Hashtag and Twitch returned with Bumblebee from a mishap with G.H.OS.T., Nightshade used the family gathering to introduce everyone to the [[Dugout|new base]] they had constructed beneath the farmstead. {{storylink|Hashtag: Oops}} Nightshade was present at the family movie night that showed off the movie Hashtag made while trying to find Jawbreaker an alt-mode. {{storylink|Outtakes}}

[[File:NightshadeOwlMode MissedConnection.jpg|thumb|upright=1.33|'''Tarantulas:''' "We offer power and purpose. What can you offer us? What can you offer me?" '''Nightshade:''' "I have a [[Mo Malto|sister]]"]]
Worried that Nightshade was isolating themself from their family because they didn't share many interests, Alex introduced Nightshade to the ''[[Winged Sentinel]]'' books by his favorite author, [[D.E. O'Neil]]. Taken by the stories of daring heroism, Nightshade resolved to meet O'Neil, who was a Witwicky local, feeling they had found someone they could bond with. They quickly worked out O'Neil's current address and took off to visit... only to discover their "current address" was a cemetery, as the author was in fact deceased. But an encounter with a "groundskeeper" soon led to Nightshade instead discovering the reclusive Decepticon scientist, [[Tarantulas (ES)|Tarantulas]]. Bonding with the Decepticon spider over their shared interests in science and shared ''lack'' of interest in continuing the Autobot/Decepticon conflict, Nightshade aided Tarantulas in constructing a holographic projector that would allow him to completely avoid detection from G.H.O.S.T. During this partnership, Tarantulas expanded the young Terran's mindset on what alt-modes could be. Following a miscommunication, Tarantulas came to believe Nightshade was a prisoner of their human parents and kidnapped the two with the intent of wiping their memories so he could take Nightshade on the run with him. When Nightshade rescued their parents, they scanned a statue of the ''Winged Sentinel'' owl, granting them a new [[beast mode]]. Besting Tarantulas in combat just as the rest of Nightshade's family arrived on scene, Nightshade convinced Bumblebee to give the spider a second chance. When G.H.O.S.T. showed up, Tarantulas decided to make the best of this second chance and volunteered to lead G.H.O.S.T. away to let the Maltos escape. {{storylink|Missed Connection}}

When [[Jon Schloder|Agent Schloder]] arrived at the Malto family farm hot on Bumblebee's trail, Nightshade and Hashtag used the opportunity to show off the new "Emergency Lockdown" protocol they had installed in the Terran base. Sealing up the base whenever a G.H.O.S.T. vehicle (Hashtag excluded) approached the area, it made entry or exit of the dugout virtually impossible. Unfortunately the two hadn't worked out all the kinks yet and discovered that instead of keeping the lockdown going for 10 minutes after Schloder departed, it was instead set for 10 ''hours''. Stuck in the base, Nightshade and the others were unable to help Bumblebee and Dot in their attempts to evade G.H.OS.T. When Dot and Alex returned later that night and informed them Bee had to go back on the run, Nightshade comforted the devastated Twitch. {{storylink|Security Protocols}}

Still new to the concept of gift-giving, for their present to Dot on Mother's Day, Nightshade made several secret modification to their mother's prosthetic leg in hopes of making her life easier. While it proved critical in aiding Dot and the others in taking care of a mutated mother bear that was terrorizing them, Nightshade was confronted by Dot that they needed to ask for permission when tampering with something as personal as Dot's leg. Nightshade apologized and in the future promised to work with Dot if they wanted to modify her leg. {{storylink|Bear Necessities}} When Nightshade, and their other siblings, were taken to [[Spacebridge Memorial Park]] by Megatron to learn of the history of the Cybertronian War, they found their meeting interrupted by the return of the dormant Decepticon [[Shockwave (ES)|Shockwave]]. When Shockwave initiated an overload of the power chamber of the derelict Space Bridge, Nightshade worked with Robby and Thrash to disconnect them while Megatron battled it out with Shockwave. {{storylink|Warzone}}

[[File:NightshadeAndSamChat HomePartOne.jpg|thumb|upright=1.33|"Now, child, flying is not merely some crude, mechanical process. It is a delicate art. Purely aesthetic. Poetry of motion. And the best way to learn it is to do it."]]

When the Terrans were taken on a nightly visit to [[Philadelphia]] by Robby and Mo, Nightshade went by themself when the group split up and got a chance to act out their heroic fantasies when they saved a young person from an attempted mugging. Taking note of the pronoun pins on <choose><option>their</option><option>her</option></choose> purse, Nightshade introduced themself to [[Sam (ES)|Sam]], who warmed up to the Terran when they told <choose><option>them</option><option>her</option></choose> of their own pronouns. It was talking with Sam where Nightshade learned of the concept of being "non-binary", which they felt was a wonderful word to describe themself. Upon reuniting with their family, Nightshade was surprised to see Bumblebee along with them. Needing help in tracking down the lost Autobot, [[Grimlock (ES)|Grimlock]], Nightshade eagerly joined him. {{storylink|Home, Part 1}} However, the search for Grimlock soon turned into a battle with the returning Mandroid. After taking down one of Mandroid's newest Arachnamech creations, Nightshade and the rest of their family found themselves having to fight the mind-controlled Hashtag. Taking the fight to the city above, Nightshade discovered attempts to forcibly remove her control chip were blocked by a forcefield. Eventually, they were all able free their sister when they were empowered by a mysterious energy that originated from the cave where the Terrans had been born. With their sister freed, Nightshade and the others raced back to Witwicky in hopes of getting home before their parents woke up. {{storylink|Home, Part 2}}

The kids encountered Grimlock while collecting flowers in the woods and had to flee back to the farm, where they eventually fought the Dinobot into submission.{{storylink|A Stygi Situation}} When Robby's cyber-sleeve manifested a new shield ability, Optimus smuggled the entire Malto family into G.H.O.S.T. HQ to have [[Teletraan I (ES)|Teletraan I]] scan the devices. The kids were later training in the base's rec room when Mandroid took control of it, unleashing a holographic Megatron on them, and though Hashtag was able to shut it down, the fight resulted in Robby's cyber-sleeve becoming inactive and the emotional link between the kids was lost. {{storylink|Disarmed}}

While trying to reactivate the cyber-sleeves with the cave water that the Maltobots were using to energize, the kids stumbled on a cave system through which [[Starscream (ES)|Starscream]], Nova Storm and Skywarp were trying to escape. Things were complicated more when they encountered the energon-feeding [[Dweller (ES)|Dweller]], forcing them to try to enact a desperate plan to imprison it so it couldn't escape the caves. {{storylink|What Dwells Within}} Robby's cyber-sleeve began affecting his health, and Dot assured the other kids that they'd do all they could to help the boy get better. When the other human members of the Malto family lapsed into unconsciousness, the Maltobots took care of them until they recovered, having had an encounter with Quintus Prime that restored both Robby's health and the cyber-sleeves. {{storylink|Prime Time (episode)|Prime Time}}

When Bumblebee was assigned the task of infiltrating G.H.O.S.T. HQ, he borrowed Nightshade's [[mobile hologram emitter]] and the latest Smart Trainer. The kids resolved to help their mentor, and to this end, once Twitch located the entrance to the HQ, Nightshade, Thrash and Robby joined her in sneaking in. They bumped into Schloder and managed to persuade him to help them, leading them to find G.H.O.S.T. had taken possession of the space bridge. During the ensuing fight with [[Karen Croft|Agent Croft]]'s [[Ghoid]]s, the group used the space bridge to escape to the outside. {{storylink|Stowed Away, Stowaways}} Pursued by a Mandroid-controlled Shockwave, the group headed into Witwicky where they were joined by the rest of the Malto kids and managed to take down the Decepticon, shortly before being surrounded by G.H.O.S.T. agents. With a timely intervention by their parents, they were able to escape back to the farm and revive Shockwave, only for Croft to arrive with an army of Ghoids. A battle ensued during which the Maltos, with the help of the Autobots, overcame the Ghoids, only to face Croft deactivating the Autobots and the arrival of Mandroid, grotesquely enhanced into a new robotic form. {{storylink|The Battle of Witwicky}}

The Malto family attempted to escape from Mandroid and his two [[Sharkticon (species)|Sharkticon]] henchmen, however eventually family members were picked off and only Twitch and Nightshade were left. The pair again sneaked into G.H.O.S.T. HQ to free Bumblebee, Schloder and the captive Decepticons, though the latter were unenthusiastic about helping and simply left. The remaining quartet found Mandroid preparing to use the space bridge to wipe out all Cybertronian life on the planet and during the resulting fight, the group escaped through the space bridge portal. {{storylink|The Last Hope, Part 1}} On their way to the huge Spire Mandroid had erected, the group encountered mind-controlled Autobots but were also reunited with Hashtag, Jawbreaker and Thrash. Nightshade battled the Sharkticons with Jawbreaker and Hashtag, allowing Twitch and Thrash to go on ahead, however Mandroid successfully activated his superweapon, putting Nightshade and the other Transformers on Earth into shutdown. Fortunately Mo and Robby were able to reverse the process using their cyber-sleeves to channel the power of Quintus Prime, and the Malto family were reunited. {{storylink|The Last Hope, Part 2}}

During a mission to retrieve a shard of the shattered Emberstone, Nightshade took out Nova Storm. Robby came up with a plan, involving him, Nightshade and Twitch infiltrating the Decepticon base to steal the Embershard collection there while the others created a diversion. Though the mission went well, they ran into Aftermath on the way out and the Chaos Terran reclaimed the shards as they escaped. {{storylink|Aftermath (ES episode)|Aftermath}} Nightshade joined the family in searching for loose Embershards in the area surrounding Witwicky. {{storylink|In Ruins}} While disposing of junk from the old G.H.O.S.T. base, the Terrans found themselves having to battle reactivated ghoids. {{storylink|Control Alt Delete}} Nightshade and [[Wheeljack (ES)|Wheeljack]] mounted a study of cyber-syncing after Robby, Mo, Twitch and Thrash discovered the ability to combine. {{storylink|Togetherness}}

As part of the [[Polyhex Protocol]], the Malto family took part in an assault course to decide who would go on an Autobot mission. Nightshade was eliminated when they failed to make the rope swing. {{storylink|Spitfire (episode)|Spitfire}} Nightshade was accessing the embershard containment when the perimeter alarms went off, however Twitch went to deal with it. {{storylink|The Imposters}} Nightshade and the others lent a hand when Robby and Hashtag ran into Decepticon issues while trying to clean Optimus's trailer. {{storylink|Dude, Where's My Trailer?}} While putting away the last of the embershards, Nightshade was blasted with chaos energy, but was fortunately unharmed. {{storylink|Witwicky, Part 1}} Learning that Starscream intended to take control of the Titan [[Terratronus]], the Autobots launched an attack on the Decepticon base in which Nightshade took part. Unfortunately Starscream reassembled the Emberstone and used it to offline the Autobot forces, until Robby and Mo were later able to reclaim it and bring everyone back to life. {{storylink|Witwicky, Part 2}}

Nightshade created a [[hyper-reality film projector]] and Robbie's intention to take Izzy to a movie gave them the perfect opportunity to try the invention out. Unfortunately during the movie Hashtag bumped the projector, resulting in the [[Mole Bot]]s escaping the film and having to be rounded up by the Terrans. What's worse, Robbie and Izzy became trapped in the movie until Nightshade was able to extract them. {{storylink|Attack of the Drive-In Movie}} The Malto kids were lured into a trap by Fairmaestro, who had them take part in a series of tests which they failed solely due to Twitch helping everyone else. This resulted in Hashtag, Jawbreaker and Nightshade being trapped as part of a ride until they were able to escape and help Twitch overcome Fairmaestro. {{storylink|The Great Escape}}

The Malto kids took the [[Hypershuttle]] to a disused G.H.O.S.T. base in the [[Arctic]] for some snow fun. This ended when Megatron and Optimus, infected with [[Hate Plague]], turned up and fought each other until it turned out cold was an effective cure. {{storylink|Fire and Ice}} The family assembled at the Autobot base for a briefing on the Hate Plague. Armed with the knowledge of how to cure it, Nightshade modified the [[Smart Trainer 5009]] to dispense freezing gas on command, and was able to use it to cure [[Prowl (ES)|Prowl]] when the investigation into the Hate Plague resulted in the Autobot being infected. {{storylink|The Truth Is Out There}}

When the [[Quintesson]]s arrived in a huge ship, the Autobots and Maltos assembled at the edge of the [[Chaos Dome]] to greet it. The Quintessons destroyed the dome, unleashing a violent storm of chaos energies that threatened the town, however Nightshade quickly came up with a plan to deal with it. With Wheeljack's help, they modified Optimus's trailer {{storylink|Judgment Day, Part 1}} to incorporate the [[Cyber Slayer]] and the bodies of the deactivated Chaos Terrans. The plan succeeded, though Nightshade had to help with implementation, and the storm was absorbed, reviving the Chaos Terrans. Nightshade later flew Mo to Terratronus's spark chamber where Mo was able to use the [[Spark Regenerator Key]] to bring the Titan back online, and Nightshade was also a member of the family who took part in cyber-syncing with Terratronus, giving her enough power to defeat the Quintessons. {{storylink|Judgment Day, Part 2}}

: Released as part of the third wave of Hasbro's ''[[Transformers: EarthSpark (toyline)|EarthSpark]]'' Deluxe Class toys, Nightshade transforms into a robotic/statuesque hawk owl in thirteen steps. Nightshade's wings, owl face, and back of the robot head are made of a rubber material. The wings come separately in the packaging and must be assembled. While they can be removed for [[show-accuracy]], they are not designed to, and doing so can stress the rubber connection points. The wings can be removed at the sturdier ball joint connection though. Nightshade has two knives that can be stored in slots on top of the wings.

: This toy also comes packed with the torso to the [[Mandroid]] [[Build a Figure|build-a-figure]], though there are releases spotted in Europe that omit that part and remove all mention of it from the packaging. A later variant, released in the fifth wave, features new packaging and omits the Mandroid BAF piece.

: The TakaraTomy release of the toy features a more extensive, much more screen-accurate paint deco, and omits the Mandroid piece. The wings come pre-assembled in this release.

==Notes==
* An early concept for Nightshade was that they identified as "Terran" rather than male or female, as they did not consider gender to be an important part of their identity. This concept was dropped at some point during ''Earthspark''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s development in favor of making the character explicitly non-binary, but this early draft persisted long enough that a version of the backstory found its way into the [[Transformers EarthSpark The Official Guidebook|official ''Earthspark'' guidebook]], as well as several foreign-language websites.
*The original pitch for Nightshade came from ''EarthSpark'' creator [[Dale Malinowski]], and was conceived as non-binary from the beginning. [[Mae Catt]] and other LGBT staff contributed their own perspective and lived experience to help shape Nightshade's character.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=I did not create Nightshade. That would be Dale Malinowski, Earthspark’s show creator. Nightshade and the rest of the Malto family existed from the get-go in Dale’s pitch, and Nightshade was always conceived as nonbinary. I am honored to have been able to contribute to Nightshade, lending my perspective and lived experience when I could. TV shows and movies are always a group effort, and so much love went into Earthspark, and especially Nightshade. We had many queer team members working behind the scenes, trying to make sure we made Nightshade a compelling character. Everyone from the executives, boards team, DEI consult, and writers room helped along the way. And know this, I will NEVER feel bad about working on Earthspark or Nightshade. I am so insanely proud of that work, and Nightshade as a character, and nothing will ever change that.|link=https://www.tumblr.com/maecatt/758033932336922624/hey-there-megatronsimp-thank-you-for-your|name=Mae Catt|site=Tumblr|title=Clarification Regarding Nightshade.|year=2024|month=8|day=05}}</ref>
* While other nonbinary characters like [[Screwball]] had previously been introduced in other extended ''Transformers'' media, Nightshade is the first character to be openly identified as such in a ''Transformers'' cartoon. ''[[Transformers: Cyberverse (cartoon)|Cyberverse]]'' previously featured a sort of edge case in the form of [[Acid Storm (Cyberverse)|Acid Storm]], but the character was not intentionally written that way, instead falling into the realm of [[pseudocanon]] via [[authorial intent]] in response to a recurring [[animation error]].
* Originally, Nightshade's alternate mode was to be a monstrous gargoyle. This idea was tweaked at some point during the show's development, and Nightshade ultimately wound up with a stylized owl alternate mode instead. Notably, ''The Official Guidebook'' still refers to their alternate mode as a gargoyle.
* Different localizations have interpreted Nightshade's gender depending on the availability of gender-neutral pronouns in the relevant language:
** In the Hungarian dub, which lacks gendered pronouns entirely, Nightshade initially speaks in the plural, using ''mi'' and ''minket'' ("we" and "us") instead of ''én'' and ''engem'' ("I" and "me"), and the subject of Nightshade's gender is not addressed. This speech quirk is dropped in subsequent episodes.
** In the Brazilian Portuguese dub, Nightshade is referred to as ''elu'', a neologistic system popularized on the Internet to accommodate the lack of formal gender-neutral pronouns in the Portuguese language.
** In the Italian dub, Nightshade is simply described as "not identifying in either gender" and dialogue tries to avoid using gendered pronouns as much as possible, albeit in a few occasions they end up using male-coded terms when it's impossible to do otherwise.
** In the Japanese dub, Nightshade's first-person {{w|Japanese pronoun|pronoun}} is ''boku'' (僕, ボク), commonly used in real life as an informal pronoun by males, but can be used by women with tomboyish or feminist connotations, especially in media. (Pronouns in Japanese are not strictly gendered. Second-person and third-person pronouns are not gendered most of the time.) The Japanese dub of "[[Home, Part 1]]" has Nightshade explain that they don't think of themselves as a boy or a girl, and the conversation with Sam uses the loanword "nonbinary" (ノンバイナリー ''nonbainarī'') to describe this.
** In the German dub, Nightshade's pronouns are ''dei'' and ''dem'', which are two of many different pronouns used by nonbinary people in the German language.
** In the Mandarin dub, Nightshade's third-person pronoun is the plural ''tāmen'' (他们), which is an unusual localization choice implying multiple personalities. In reality, gendered pronouns in Mandarin are limited to spelling variants in writing, all of which are homophones. Thus, when referring to nonbinary individuals, most Mandarin speakers in China use the Latin spelling ''ta'' (with no Chinese character) or revert the masculine ''tā'' (他) to its archaic unisex function; an alternative is to revive the literary pronouns ''qú'' (佢), ''yī'' (伊), or ''qí'' (其). Nightshade's gender identity is explicitly addressed.
** In the Czech dub, Nightshade uses the masculine plural pronoun ''oni'', along with its respective case and declension forms. Czech does not have any commonly used gender-neutral pronouns (although ''one'' has been proposed as one).

'''[[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]''' is the star of a [[Live-action film series|multibillion-dollar film franchise]], and as such has an ungodly amount of toys and memorabilia!

Seriously, he's probably got more than [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Optimus Prime]] by now.

He is one of two characters (the other being [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys|Optimus Prime]]) to have at least one toy in every size class.

{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: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 applications. Due to his simplified transformation, his hands are exposed on the vehicle bumper, and due to how the arms are molded, the headlights make the robot mode appear to be wielding a pair of guns. 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; the racing stripes just extend over it.

:The toy was also released in two different ways in Japan: the Hasbro version was initially released as a giveaway for the customers who purchased the Movie toys worth 3000 yen in the Transformers First Impact 0602 event held in Ikebukuro Toys"R"Us store at midnight [[June 2]]nd, with the package completely unchanged with the exception of the sticker covering the back to identify that this was a giveaway. The toy was also later released as part of the blind-packed EZ Collection lineup, distributed via TakaraTomy's subsidiary Subarudo.

:He was later redecoed into [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Legends Class toys|Cliffjumper]].

{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro), [[Alex Kubalsky]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Part of the second wave of [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|''Transformers'']] Deluxe Class figures, the first Deluxe Class version of Bumblebee transforms into a yellow {{w|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 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 Technology|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 and you'll be transforming his front car hood manually. The retooled Automorph gimmick would be used for all subsequent versions of the mold, including a small number of Japanese releases, 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.

:One of the more unfortunate results of the car hood's automorph feature, leaves the front of the car form not staying together properly over time. While it may not happen to every release of the figure, it's definitely something to keep an eye out for.

: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 with metallic blue paint. The [[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 original Hasbro mold (complete with opaque windows) also saw release in Japan 10 years later, as part of an Amazon Japan exclusive 3-pack (see below).

:The packaging used for the Japanese release is the same as for the Hasbro version, with the exception of additional stickers identifying it as a Japanese market release.

:The toy appears to be partially based on an early character study of Bumblebee by [[Don Figueroa]], particularly his feet.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=A VERY early character study of BB for the first #Transformers movie.|link=https://twitter.com/SketchyFig/status/1524542496847458304|name=Don Figueroa|site:Twitter|year=2022|month=May|day=12}}</ref>

:This battle pack contains the 1976 Camaro Deluxe Class Bumblebee and the Deluxe Class [[Barricade (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys|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 the 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 [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|toy drought]] following the movie's record-smashing opening.

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>

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''TakaraTomy name'': '''New Bumblebee'''
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''MA-10'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[August 9]], 2007
**''Accessories:'' [[Plasma cannon]]
{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro), [[Alex Kubalsky]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Released in the fourth wave of Deluxes, the second Deluxe Class Bumblebee toy shares no parts with the previous version and transforms into the {{w|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 Technology|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. Depending on how tight the shoulder ball joints are, posing his arms can be troublesome as they're jointed with the front wheel/car doors/wings. If the converting Plasma Cannon is removed from his vehicle form, the spring-loaded windows may become slightly dislodged unless you press both sides of the vehicle rear to counter this.

:Depending on the individual quality control, his pair of yellow shoulder panels tend to pop off occasionally. Care should be taken while transforming the front clear window piece: At least one of the protruding panels can snap off if not done carefully.

: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. His robot mode stock photo is mistransformed; the chest hood blocks can be flipped up for better accuracy. This mistransformation is common to all of his redecoes/retools below.

:A running change version of this sculpt adds sculpted pupils to Bumblebee's eyes. A ''second'' running change adds tabs to the hip panels, which makes the [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] hold together better.<ref name="conceptvariant">[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 sculpt.

:This sculpt was also used to make "Allspark Power" [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Deluxe Class toys|Cliffjumper]].

*'''Evolution of a Hero''' (Target exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 missiles, left and right spring-loaded missile launchers, 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 sculpt.

:This two-pack was available as a Target exclusive in the USA, as a Zellers exclusive in Canada (in English-only packaging), as a Tesco exclusive in the United Kingdom and Ireland, and as an exclusive to stores that were members of either the Idee + Spiel or Vedes trade associations (which were cooperating at the time) in Germany.

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

:A more [[show-accuracy|screen-accurate]] [[redeco]] of Camaro Concept Deluxe Class Bumblebee, with all of the black plastic and paint operations (sans the racing stripes and the grille mesh) changed to gray. In addition, the translucent parts are now an ever-so-slightly greener shade of blue. The only other change is the addition of a new [[tampograph]]ed red Autobot symbol on his forehead. Unfortunately, his racing stripes aren't added with black border pinstripes.

:This ''Screen Battles'' pack (or "Battle Scenes" in Europe) also includes non-[[articulation|poseable]] [[Slug figure|figurines]] of [[Sector Seven]] agent [[Seymour 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,<ref name="checklist">[http://web.archive.org/web/20080920112933/http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/default.cfm?page=Collectors/Checklist Hasbro checklist] featuring Screen Battles sets with additional extras</ref> this pack was originally supposed to feature "ice soldiers" (plural), in addition to an "S7 agent" and an "S7 soldier". Apparently, the 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]], which was supposed to contain ''four'' soldier figures according to the same Hasbro checklist<ref name="checklist"/>).

**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''SB-02'''

:This ''Screen Battles'' pack (or "Battle Scenes" in Europe) comes with an altered [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] toy and a posable, non-transforming, battle-damaged Bumblebee. Despite being in the same scale, this figurine utilizes none of the parts of the ''Robot Replicas'' toy. This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the battle in Mission City.

:The Bumblebee figure oddly does not feature the character's distinctive car door "wings" on his back. However, keen [[customizing|customizers]] 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,<ref name="checklist"/> this seems indeed very plausible.)

*'''Ultimate Bumblebee''' (Ultimate Class, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Missile

:The first Ultimate Class toy, this version of Bumblebee is similar in size to Supreme Class figures and transforms into a large 2009 concept Camaro. The toy features [[motorized movement|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. 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.

:The projectile included with this figure is the same mold included with several [[Attacktix]] figures like the [[Decepticlone]], Omnicon, Vehicle Mode [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]], and a few others.

:[[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 mis-transformed 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.

Other deco differences include the crotch being painted silver, and the details on the majority of the body are now replaced with a greener shade of grey, and the turquoise unpaintable joints in now molded in lighter teal. In addition, the left forearm & his head (due to being molded in the same light brown-ish grey) is also painted yellow. Rally Rocket Bumblebee also features a tampograph decal based on his alliterative nickname "BB", with the first "B" letter reversed.

{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: [[Trans-scan]]ning 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 metallic orange plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be transform into his meteor-like "entry mode". This mode 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 many armor pieces that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a licensed Camaro concept. Compared to the overly simple transformation of the protoform mode, his car mode's transformation can be described as an abominable, unintuitive, parts-massaging ''mess''.

: 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.

:''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 [[size class|price point]]).

:The [[:File:ROTF Legends Bumblebee HTS.jpg|second batch of stock photos of the toy]], which depict a [[prototype|(pre-)production sample]], show it in a much brighter shade of yellow plastic than it was released as. It's possible that this was simply the result of an excessive alteration of the hue settings during the digital enhancement of those photos, though.

:There are a few problems on the toy's vehicle mode: Probably due to tolerances, there are difficulties for perfectly aligning the wings/side windows with the legs/rear windows during transformation, though several samples does not seem to have this issue. In terms of deco, Bumblebee's face paint quality varies from figure-to-figure: Due to how the eyes are painted to emulate the mechanical optics; the central blue "eyeball" (especially the left one) is ''slightly'' lopsided. The forehead is often messily painted.

:In Malaysia, this toy is also one of the four Legends Classes to be released as promotional merchandise for the Petronas Gas Station. He can be obtained starting from the 26th of June (2 days are the movie's premiere), via RM30 ($7.04) worth of gas or RM15 ($3.52) worth of foods and items in the Mesra Shop.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe, 2009)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''RA-03'''
**''Accessories:'' Pulse Missile

:Released as part of a "preview" [[wave]] of the ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Deluxe Class assortment alongside [[Soundwave (ROTF)/toys|Soundwave]], Bumblebee is a relatively major retool of the Camaro Concept Bumblebee mold, feature a new vehicle front end, hood and wheels to reflect the changes to the prop vehicle used in the movie; and in robot mode has a new, more accurate head sculpt... that just so happens to have some very creepy painted eyes but still, it's accurate nonetheless. Also, the paint on the door knobs, the gas lid, and the sculpted "Camaro" is omitted.

:His right arm has also been replaced by an all-new sculpt which substitutes the hand and the hand-held converting plasma cannon/blade weapon from the previous version for a built-in plasma cannon with a spring-loaded firing gimmick for the included missile. If one wishes to use the normal right arm, one must pop off the plasma cannon arm and replace it with the normal forearm from the Screen Battles figure (the only one with the accurate gray color), though the window must be replaced with the same translucent blue piece by unscrewing it.

:The instructions still depict him having the head from the 2007 Concept Camaro mold. Both the prototype and stock photos do not have his waist armor rotated into position in robot mode, while the later stock photo does not show the chest pieces being folded up. Due to the omission of the converting Plasma Cannon that holds the rear windows in position, the pieces may not align properly if the lower thighs/vehicle rear is not transformed properly during the robot-to-vehicle conversion.

:The initial production run included a missile that was slightly too long for the slot inside the arm, so it either has to be slightly cut down to fit or the cannon must be swiveled outwards to accommodate the missile. This was fixed by a [[variant|running change]] that saw the missile slightly shortened.<ref name="missile1">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/revenge-of-the-fallen/bumblebee/1757/ Seibertron.com gallery of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Preview" Bumblebee], depicting the early version with a slightly too long missile.</ref><ref name="missile2">[http://www.bwtf.com/toyreviews/rotf/deluxe/bumblebee/ BWTF review of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Preview" Bumblebee], depicting the later version with a missile that fits in without a problem.</ref><ref name="missile3">[http://snakas.web.fc2.com/09movie/ra03bumblebee.html Autobase Aichi gallery of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' "Preview" Bumblebee], featuring a comparison of both versions of the missile.</ref> The corrected version was also released in other markets such as Japan and Europe. Also, instead of having movie accurate gray colored "toe" sections on his feet like the later 2007 figures, his toes are ''painted'' yellow ...on top of yellow plastic. Oookay...

**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''RA-14'''
{{toydesigner|[[Alex Kubalsky]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:This heavy retool of Bumblebee changes the entire upper half of the robot mode, and thus half of the car, to newly designed parts (essentially, only the legs are recycled from ''Movie'' Concept Camaro Bumblebee and the previous ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Bumblebee; everything else is an entirely new sculpt), including more articulated arms with open palms, less obstructive vehicle [[kibble]], a differently transforming chest, and two flip-out (non-firing) missile launcher racks behind his head. Interestingly, his arms can be detached and easily popped onto the original mold, resulting in a more [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] robot mode, though this sacrifices transformation. This extensive retooling results in a car interior with seats and a crude dashboard, but the windows are so opaque that these new details can't easily be seen. A [[variant]] with clear blue windows was released in later shipments.<ref name="cannonbee">[http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/revenge-of-the-fallen/cannon-bumblebee/1855/2/92/ Comparison between both versions of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Cannon Bumblebee.]</ref>

:His "heels" are assembled backwards, which keeps them from being folded up against the back of the shins. Disappointingly, his chest cannot deform like the previous releases of this mold (or his Fast Action Battler).

*'''Battlefield Bumblebee Vs. Infiltration Soundwave NEST set''' (Deluxe 2-pack, 2009)

:A minor redeco and retool Cannon Bumblebee that replaces the head sculpt with the much smaller battle mask head previously used by Stealth Bumblebee and Premium Bumblebee from the 2007 movie line. The base plastic colors and matching paint colors are virtually identical to those of Cannon Bumblebee, as are the [[Paint operation|paint masks]] for the most part. Aside from the head, the only differences are different paint choices in the abdominal section (the license plate, the sculpted cylinders above the license plate and the crotch plate below the gas cap), the front sides of the shoulder cannons (painted black on Cannon Bumblebee, painted red on Battlefield Bumblebee) and a different size and placement for the [[tampograph]]ed Autobot [[insignia|logo]] (on the side of Cannon Bumblebee's left shoulder cannon panel, on the front end of Battlefield Bumblebee's vehicle mode hood/robot mode chest).

:Battlefield Bumblebee was only available in a two-pack with a redecoed [[Soundwave (ROTF)/toys#Infiltration|Soundwave]], named "Infiltration Soundwave". The North American version of the two-pack also included a "Mission Guide" catalog and ordering form for the mail-in exclusive [[Ravage (ROTF)#ReconRavage|Recon Ravage]], a "starter sticker" for said ordering form, and a "N.E.S.T.

This two-pack has been confirmed to have been released in Malaysia and was apparently also sold in Indonesia and India.

:As for the Bumblebee figure, he features pinned shoulder panels used for the Alliance Bumblebee release above. It was unclear if he retains the original metallic paint job from the ''Premium Series'' figure.

:Like his pack-in mate Optimus Prime, a near-identical [[knockoff]] of the 2-pack has been making the rounds since the 2-pack's release, with Bumblebee being the dead giveaway, as he comes with additional yellow paint on the lower "jaws", the uneven gray (and the forehead's red) paint on the helmet, and unpinned shoulder panels. The forearm's sculpted parts seem to be a little thinner than the original's.

**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''RA-21'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 Missiles
{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Human Alliance Bumblebee comes with a posable figure of [[Sam Witwicky]] that can fit inside in Bumblebee's vehicle mode (plugging into his seat via a small hole in his back) and drive him. In robot mode, Bumblebee's vehicle mode seats end up on his arms, and Sam can sit in either of them; the seat on Bumblebee's right has a headrest that can fold down to look slightly less conspicuous in robot mode, while the seat on Bumblebee's left arm features a pair of cannons which flip over Sam's shoulders, offering him some offensive hardware to protect his rather precarious position. These cannons can also be flipped down further to form some over-the-shoulder restraints. Sam can also stand on a platform that flips out from the small of Bumblebee's back (again, via peg-holes on his feet), manning a small non-firing cannon that flips out over Bumblebee's right shoulder. Finally, Bumblebee's left palm also contains a peg, meaning Sam can securely stand or sit in his big buddy's hand. Bumblebee himself features a spring-loaded cannon for his right arm, which can fire the two missiles the figure comes with, a flip-out double-barreled silver cannon that points over his head, and a functional flip-down battle mask. Much like the rest of his Human Alliance brethren, Bumblebee is roughly the same size as an ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' toy, being slightly taller than ''Alternators'' [[Mirage (G1)|Mirage]] in robot mode.

:[[File:Human Alliance Bumblebee Prototype.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|left|Modders, vindicated by the prototype.]]
:There is a significant [[misassembly]] issue with Bumblebee: according to TakaraTomy's images of the resin [[prototype]] as well as Bumblebee's CG design, the retail toy's legs are on the wrong sides of his body, so the details on his legs are inverted. Since the instructions reflect this assembly, it's possible that this was [[design change|done on purpose]] because, with the toy in its originally intended assembly, the waist section could be rather difficult to transform for children. The toy's originally intended assembly can still be [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/243649-human-alliance-bumblebee-leg-mod.html easily achieved by disassembling his crotch and reassembling the legs backwards.] Once this is complete, Bumblebee will look the way he was intended to look while adding some minor extra steps during transformation.

:Bumblebee is also available in smaller & compact packaging, released exclusively in Asian and Australian markets.<ref>[https://twitter.com/FigureGunplaFan/status/1142466636525346817 The Asia/Australia exclusive compact packaging variant, taken from a Hobby shop in Asia]</ref>

:As with the rest of the Human Alliance figures, Bumblebee is a frequent victim of being [[Knockoff|counterfeited]].

:Plonk him down. Lift him up. Plonk him down. Lift him up. This addictive toy transforms automatically when stood up (vehicle to robot), or placed on his back (robot to vehicle). A switch underneath his feet or his car mode releases the transformation — so the toy can be played with in relatively stable modes if held in the air, or just rolling along the ground.

:Because gravity is the powering force in the transformation there's no motors to wear out or batteries to use up when playing with the toy. Which is good, because you will be transforming him no less than nine million times.

:Bumblebee features dumpy proportions and low movie accuracy (no door wings here), forced upon the toy to accommodate the [[Gravity Bot]]s transformation gimmick. His robot mode has no articulation, not even head. But at least he has big feet! Or legs... or whatever the heck they are. Stump? At least he has a big stump.

His [[license plate]] is also considerably smaller than that of the first movie ''Robot Replica'' Bumblebee and features no detail aside from a red line evocative of a California license plate.

:Bizarrely, his chest still features detail from the front end of the first movie Bumblebee's Concept (standard model) Camaro [[alternate mode]] (notably the fog lights) as compared to the ZL1 model's front end used for most ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Bumblebee toys.

: ''[[Transformers (2010 toyline)|Hunt for the Decepticons]]'' Bumblebee features a much more accurate and articulated sculpt in robot mode compared to previous versions of Deluxe class Camaro Concept versions of the character, with the [[transformation scheme]] taking many cues from ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Human Alliance Bumblebee, scaled down to Deluxe size, while using an [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]] design for the leg transformation directly based on the original Deluxe Class Concept Camaro Bumblebee.

: His right forearm can transform into his signature plasma cannon, though due to how the parts were distributed on the plastic sprues during production, the cannon barrel is yellow rather than grey. The left arm-guard has a flip-out axe made of translucent blue plastic, representing the axe weapon Bumblebee uses in the [[Revenge of the Fallen (video games)|''Revenge of the Fallen'' video games]], which itself may have been based upon the electrical [[Stinger (weapon)|stinger]] that was once considered as a melee weapon for Bumblebee in the first movie. The axe is spring-loaded, activated by a button on his arm-guard. This version of Movie Bumblebee also features a flip-down battle mask, very similar in function to Human Alliance Bumblebee.

: His head has a tendency to pop off during transformation. The space at the front of the collar would give him ''just'' enough clearance to pass his head through... if it was not for the small plastic flap (the one with the [[Autobot]] symbol) on his chest, which tends to push and squeeze the head out enough that the tension causes the head to pop and fly out from his ball-jointed neck.

: Stock photos show that the axe was originally made in such a way that the blade was mounted on a rod and could be rotated downwards, but this was changed entirely for unknown reasons (possibly fragility). As a result, the blade is mounted upside-down.

: The Japanese ''[[Autobot Alliance]]'' release features marginally darker yellow plastic and paint.

The cannon arm has limited articulation due to the gimmick, but features a small translucent-blue hand which telescopes out of the cannon when not in use. He also is armed with two non-firing light-up shoulder/hood missile launchers which can be deployed in either mode; though not mentioned in the instructions, the missile launchers can be collapsed on the back in robot mode. Also, you have to remove the plastic ring attached on the right cannon hand before you use the toy.

: As revealed at the Hasbro designers panel at [[BotCon 2010]], an easter egg is hidden in Battle Ops Bumblebee's electronics: when in vehicle mode, pressing down on the front left end of the vehicle (or pushing the front left wheel up) thrice will play the first verse of the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original ''Transformers'']] [[theme song]], and three subsequent presses will play the second verse. Unfortunately, it only repeats the first two verses.

: A [[Costco]]-[[exclusive]] [[redeco]] of the Bumblebee figure above, this release is advertised as having a "Limited Edition metallic finish!", being cast in gray plastic and painted over in metallic gold, and with his hand being cast in colorless clear plastic, making him very similar to his ''Masterpiece'' figure. Additionally, the tip of his cannon is [[Vacuum metallizing|chromed]].

: He also comes with two "Great Value" toys: an unchanged Legends Class [[Mudflap (ROTF)#BattleOpsCostco|Mudflap]] figure, and a "Premium" vacuum-metallized gold redeco of Bumblebee's own ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends Class figure.

: Canada received both English and French versions of this release - bizarrely, the French release is available in places outside Quebec such as Vancouver and even Alberta.

:The figure should be handled with considerable care, as the dark gray metallic plastic used in joints in the torso and legs tends to become [[Gold Plastic Syndrome|brittle]] over time.

{{toydesigner|[[Shogo Hasui]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece: Movie Series]]'' Bumblebee is a redeco of Battle Ops Bumblebee. Unlike the Hasbro version, he features a very extensive paint job, including chromed rims, and features no yellow plastic despite his appearance. Instead, all of his yellow parts are painted over gray plastic to make it as [[Show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] as possible. Among other notable plastic color changes, the [[TakaraTomy]] version features a clear colorless right hand (instead of translucent blue). The Hong Kong release of the toy features a shiny metallic gold finish instead.

: The box flap features the quote "''Angels will rain down like visitors from heaven!''" from the first movie.

: Beginning in March, ''Masterpiece'' Bumblebee was involved in two different [[campaign item|promotional giveaways]] in Japan. Bic Camera and Yodobashi Camera stores offered the [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmaster]] [[Mini-Con|Micron]] [[Spoilsport#United|Spoilsport]] with the purchase of ''Masterpiece'' Bumblebee, while, [[Toys"R"Us]] offered the Targetmaster Micron [[Caliburst (G1)#United|Caliburst]] with purchase.

**''Accessories'': Removable "Stinger Blaster"

:After 7 years, the second ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece Movie Series]]'' Bumblebee is its own dedicated mold rather than a repaint and is also based upon his body from the first live-action film. Does it convert? Does it ever!

:As usual, he transforms from a roughly Voyager-sized robot that scales with the Generation 1 ''Masterpiece'' Autobot Cars. He, however, does NOT turn into a Concept Camaro seen in the first live-action movie, but rather the production model 2010 Camaro SS. His yellow is also inaccurate: The MPM is casted in Rally Yellow, and not the PBC-30 Sunrise that is used in the film. The latter inaccuracy is possibly due to licensing restrictions, as PBC-30 is not a factory option. His right hand can be replaced with a Stinger Blaster, which can be stored in the vehicle mode. He also features die-cast parts on his bottom legs & his feet.

:Some units feature misassembled waist tabs. Although stock photos shows his tire rims being painted silver, the actual product has tire rims painted in Chevy’s Midnight Silver, which was used as an optional paint for the 2010's Camaros.

:The Japanese release omits the paint applications on the eyes to allow for light piping, and it features a less dark shading on the blaster weapon. As with most TakaraTomy toys, It also uses black screws over unpainted screws.

:In the United States, Canada, Australia, and Hasbro's Asian markets, ''Masterpiece Movie Series'' Bumblebee was exclusively available from [[Toys"R"Us]], as was TakaraTomy's Japanese release. He was also initially released in the Transformers Atrium Fair in Takashimaya B2 Atrium located at Singapore, limited to 300 pieces. In Spain, meanwhile, he saw a wider release, being at least available via the Spanish subsidiaries of [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] and Carrefour, as well as the department store chain El Corte Inglés. It's currently unknown if he was also available in stores, or limited to online purchases. In Greece, he was officially available via at least one toy store chain, aptly named simply "Toys-Shop", but again might have been available online only.

:For accessories, he comes with a battle mask that fits over his head, and Stinger Blaster and Sword alternate arms replacing the hands and part of the forearms. The unused arm parts and the battle mask can be stored on the robot's back. As an additional gimmick, the headlights on his chest can be lifted up to reveal missile racks.

Cybertronian Bumblebee is a redeco of ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends Class]] [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Bumblebee]], done up in live-action movie Bumblebee-style colors, while the other Bumblebee is a paint-heavy redeco of Bolt Bumblebee (see below), partially cast in translucent plastic and painted with a grid pattern to simulate a [[trans-scan]] effect. This Bumblebee also comes with a redecoed version of ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' [[Skywarp (MW)|Skywarp]]'s [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|gun]], which can be held in his newly retooled right hand. (This weapon is also depicted on Starscream's side of the instructions, confusing matters of ownership a bit.)

:Care must be taken while rolling Cybertronian Bumblebee's vehicle: pushing down while moving the vehicle forward can chip the paint underneath the hip section.

:The Bumblebees come packed with a [[retool]] of [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|''Transformers'']] Legends Class [[Starscream (Movie)/toys#BeeStarscream|Starscream]] and a redeco of ''Legends of [[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]'' [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]].

:An early name for this set was "Cyberverse Evolution", which is still used by some websites (including the Australian and United Kingdom Toys"R"Us sites), but that name does not appear anywhere on the packaging.

:The [[stock photography|stock photo]] used for the [[packaging]] (which depicts a hand-painted prototype) shows him lacking the retooled hand. The other stock photo (see the image to the right), which depicts a pre-production sample, does show the retooled hand, but has the weapon's handle plugged into a conveniently fitting slot on his ''other'' arm for whatever reason.

:This three-pack was also available as an Asda exclusive in the United Kingdom and from Rossmann stores in Germany and Auchan stores in Hungary and Italy. Of note is that the [[multilingual packaging|European packaging]] does ''not'' market Rodimus as a "bonus figure" (presumably so stores can charge full price for three toys), and his window lacks the yellow edges highlighting him as a special feature, despite still being separated from Bumblebee and Soundwave, who share a common window like in the US version. Despite this, Rodimus still doesn't get a mention on the back of the packaging, which only features a one-sentence "bio" about Bumblebee planning to bring down Soundwave in twelve different languages.

:Whereas the [[stock photography|stock photos]] depicted on the back of his packaging (which feature a hand-painted [[prototype]]) correctly show him with only a Cyberverse-compatible right hand and an unchanged left hand, the other set of stock photos (which feature a pre-production sample) depicts him with ''two'' retooled hands. Whereas the version with the new right hand was redecoed for several store-exclusive multi-packs, no version available in stores has featured the new ''left'' hand thus far.

{{toydesigner|[[Takio Ejima]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Deluxe Class figures, Bumblebee transforms into a customized 2011 Camaro Concept. Bumblebee comes with a [[MechTech]] weapon which is a "Blaster" weapon, which opens up into a larger "Plasma Cannon" when its lever is pulled, but it springs back into its original position once the lever is released. The MechTech weapon can be held in his hands, attach via [[5 mm post|5 mm pegholes]]/MechTech ports on his forearms, or plug in a "concealed" 5 mm peg hole on the vehicle mode's roof. Two extraneous 5 mm peg holes are also located on his vehicle mode hood flap and can be flipped up and used in robot mode to shoulder-mount weapons beside his head. Additionally, [[C joint]] bars are sculpted into Bumblebee's forearms. His pair of hands features poseable fingers (albeit 4+1), and it can be formed into a 5 mm compatible hand if adjusted properly.

:Bumblebee can form a semi-Stealth Force configuration by lifting up the rear half of his roof, exposing concealed cannons sculpted in translucent blue plastic. Also of note in vehicle mode is the sculpted Camaro SS badging near the doors, which doesn't appear on any other ''Dark of the Moon'' Bumblebee toy or the prop vehicles used for filming.

:Just like his CG robot model, his [[package art]] depicts his racing stripes being pinstripe-bordered despite his toy no longer having it. Whoops.

:Bumblebee is currently being sold in Universal theme parks in new packaging based on the ride. He is advertised as a Universal Studios Exclusive, molded in slightly different colors compared to his original widespread release, and also has some gold paint on his knees that the original did not have. This mold was also used to make ''Movie The Best'' [[Laserbeak (DOTM)#Movie The Best|Laserbeak]].

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe, 2011)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma Cannon
{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

:This [[Walmart]]-[[exclusive]] Bumblebee (also sold at Sainsbury's stores in the United Kingdom) is a redeco of the [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|2007 ''Transformers'']] Deluxe Class Concept Camaro Bumblebee, with the standard production model Chevrolet Camaro front end as compared to the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' ZL1 version and the first reuse of the 2007 mold, both hands and the hand-held [[plasma cannon]]/energy blade weapon. However, he ''does'' have the retooled shoulder panels that are held in place with screws (first introduced with ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Alliance Bumblebee).

:Bumblebee features many different ''Transformers'' [[insignia]]s from across different continuities, namely; [[:File:Ancient Autobot Symbol.png|Generation 1 Prehistory Autobot]], [[:File:Minicon symbol.png|Armada Mini-Con]], [[:File:Sumdac Systems.PNG|Animated Sumdac Systems]], [[:File:Playschool Go-Bots G.png|Playschool Go-Bot]], [[S.T.A.R.S.]], "FLY [[Omega Supreme (disambiguation)|Ω SUPREME]]", [[G.B. Blackrock|"Black Rock"]], [[Maccadam's Old Oil House|"Maccadam's"]], [[:File:Dinobots symbol.png|the Beast Machines Dinobots Symbol]], and the number [[1984|84]], all in addition to his live-action movie Autobot insignia.

:The [[stock photography|stock photos]] on the back of his packaging are quite strange, depicting a significantly different deco, with the primary color for his vehicle mode gradually fading from yellow to red towards the bottom, and parts of his abdomen sporting the same red color. In addition, his handheld weapon's blade sports a clear blue color. The final toy, by contrast, features no red at all, and his blade is cast in clear black plastic. Furthermore, the stock photos depict his eyes as bright blue, whereas the final toy's eyes are painted black. On top of that, the stock photos contradict ''each other'', with the photo of his robot mode depicting clear blue windows, whereas the photo of his vehicle mode depicts opaque ''black'' windows.

The packaging puts emphasis on Backfire's "handheld cannon" mode, which this particular Bumblebee isn't really designed to hold.

: Released in the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' Leader Class figures, this version of Bumblebee is smaller than his previous Leader-sized incarnations and, ''technically'', is his first Leader-class toy. Along with the update to his Dark of the Moon form, this is also the first toy to feature a (sculpted) "900 STRA" [[license plate]] (the one used for the prop cars for all three movies). Being different in proportions to his other toys, this Bumblebee seems to have inspired his later "[[#NitroBee|Nitro Bumblebee]]" toy, having a much bulkier torso and smaller arms, with the entire hood pieces being deformed into his chest.

: The main gimmick is that he comes with a ''massive'' MechTech backpack, which hooks onto his back window/back, and is the sole electronic component of the toy. It resembles a [[jet pack|jet-pack]], and features missile pods and a cannon, all of which emit lights and sounds when pressed, and can be positioned for either robot or vehicle mode. Pressing the missile pod housings will emit orange lights and play the sound of a barrage of missiles being launched while pressing the cannon will prop up a targeting sight, emit green lights, and play the sound of the cannon deploying/charging and firing a powerful-sounding blast. The weapons can be deployed/retracted when the brown panel on the top-left of the backpack is slid, making the [[Transformation#The noise|transformation noise]] in the process (with an additional mechanical impact sound after deploying). There are a total of five MechTech ports and four [[C joint]] bars on the backpack, with a port and bar on each missile pod, a port on the side of the cannon barrel, a port on the sliding panel, a port on the top-center of the backpack, and a bar on top of each battery compartment.

: Bumblebee can also transform into his [[Stealth Force]] attack vehicle mode, wherein his hood portions split forward and open, his doors open and hinge up, his robot arms swing out from the sides to aim, his plasma cannon extends, and his backpack is attached and deployed, with dedicated pegs to help secure his doors, arms, and shoulders. Finally, like a few other Bumblebee toys, he also features a flip-down battle mask.

: Unfortunately, while Bumblebee has rotational leg [[articulation]], they're ''below'' the knees, limiting their usefulness. Even more unfortunately, while he's perfectly stable on his own, plugging in his backpack in robot mode will make him ''very'' back-heavy, resulting in significant balance issues and limitation of poseability due to his [[Ratchet (mechanism)|ratchet joint]]s not being strong enough to handle the additional weight on one side. Posing him to lean forwards or posing his legs further to his back may remedy this.

: His secondary stock photos are slightly mistransformed: his shoulder collars are not folded out. Ironically; this mistranformation ''also allows'' the head to move slightly freely.

{{toydesigner|[[Lenny Panzica]] (Hasbro)}}

:As with other Dark of the Moon Activators toys, this Bumblebee figure (released under the [[Robo Power]] subline) is a very simple one-step transformation toy. Transformation consists of positioning him on the large blue section to the rear of his vehicle mode and pressing down, causing his components to shift around and reveal his robot parts; from there, one just has to rotate out his arms. Transformation back to vehicle mode is done by reversing the steps.

:Bumblebee was packaged in vehicle mode on an open, bubble-less card and tied down with twist-ties around the body of his truck form so that he couldn't be transformed in package.

:[http://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/110058-question-robo-power-activators/ At least one report] has surfaced of a brand-new figure missing one of the locking tabs that work the spring-loaded transformation mechanism, leaving the figure unable to transform properly. Although most likely a one-off incident as no other cases are known to have happened, care should still be taken.

:Bumblebee shares a transformation scheme with his fellow Flip & Changers, Lockdown and Drift.

: Available only at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores in the US, Canada, the UK and Germany, this two-pack contains a Deluxe Class Bumblebee based on the new form he acquires part way through the ''Age of Extinction'' film, transforming into a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro concept. He includes two 'fake kibble' hubcaps, which can be screen-accurately mounted on his back, removed and held as throwing star weapons, or store underneath his vehicle mode. Additionally, his right forearm features a flip-out cannon, and his head sports a flip down battle mask (which is inaccurate to the actual battle mask in the film). The car windows on his forearms can be flipped down to represent the missile launchers he uses in the movie. Bumblebee cannot transform into vehicle mode with his Shurikens pegged on his back.

: The two-pack also includes a 'Classic' Bumblebee [[redeco]]ed from the ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Generations|Legends Class Bumblebee]], cast in a slightly lighter yellow with blue headlights and taillights and armed with a black and yellow redeco of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[Jolt (ROTF)#Deluxe Class toys 3|Deluxe Jolt]]'s [[MechTech]] weapon. In most regions, this pack was released ahead of the ''Age of Extinction'' Deluxe figure's single-carded release.

: The two-pack was one of the three Evolution 2-packs available as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in Japan, with no changes to the figures themselves. The box features Japanese translated versions of the English text on the front and a sticker on the back confirming that this was a Japanese release. Take note that this was also the first Japanese release of the 2014 Camaro Bumblebee mold, 7 days ''before'' its ''Movie Advanced'' Series release (seen below).

:This individual release of the Bumblebee is an unchanged version of the figure from the Evolution two-pack. He still includes the two throwing stars and the flip out cannon and flip down battle mask. Some variants are more of a yellow color than the original orange-ish yellow color. The Japanese release of the toy, released as part of ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)#Movie Advanced Series|Movie Advanced Series]]'' lineup (7 days after the original Hasbro Bumblebee mold from the Evolution 2-pack Bumblebee released in Japan), features paint operations on his robot mode's arms, thighs, & his eyes...although this neuters the light-piping gimmick.

:Most promotional images featuring this figure (like the one above), except the ones from Takara, have Bumblebee mistransformed, with his shoulders not folded down correctly and his front bumper/grille not folded down into his chest.

Other than this, the paint masks are ''completely identical'' to the original mold, with an exception of the flip-out cannon & his blade, which is chromed. Because of the gradual downsizing of deluxe figures after 2011, this Bumblebee was released as a Voyager Class figure despite its original release being a Deluxe Class figure.

:This Bumblebee is a ''slight'' redeco of the second [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|''The Last Knight Premier Edition'' Deluxe Class figure]], with darker yellow plastic and paint seen in the first ''Movie The Best'' figure above. He also sports some tooling changes: Notably, the arm cannon is a different tooling that is the mirror opposite of the version available with the original release, and thus it is designed to attach to the ''right'' arm instead of the left one. Less notable is the addition of a [[C joint|3 mm peg]] to the right forearm to make it a mirror opposite of its left counterpart, allowing it to be attached to the back while the cannon is attached to the arm. Additionally, he comes with a new hammer accessory (hence the name) based on the hammer Bee used during his fight with Nemesis Prime in ''The Last Knight''. The Hammer can also be stored onto the rear hip, or onto Bumblebee's vehicle spoiler, mounted along with the Stinger Blaster. All the new pieces are made from the same tooling, resulting in slightly mismatched forearms, with the new right one made of gray plastic painted orange and silver while the left one is made of orange plastic with silver paint.

:This 1-Step Bumblebee was part of the exclusive ''Autobots Unite'' subline imprint, available only in a 2-pack with a redeco of 1-Step Turbo Changer [[Hot Rod (DOTM)#TurboChanger|Autobot Hot Rod]]. For the United States, the 2-pack was announced to be excusive to [[Walmart]], but was ultimately only available via Walmart's online store, and was found at discounter Ross around the same time. Internationally, the 2-pack was also available via other exclusive venues, namely Asda in the United Kingdom; Prisma in Finland; Walmart in Mexico; Bart Smit and Intertoys (owned by the same parent company) in the Netherlands; Intertoys in Germany; and ICA Hemma in Sweden.

Bumblebee also features a "Knight Armor" gimmick, which involves pressing the button on his upper chest to activate his spring-loaded battle mask. He's also one of the first few toys released that feature Bumblebee's featured alt mode from the movie.

:The TakaraTomy release of the figure features extensive paint applications to resemble his on-screen appearances, and his pop-out mask is now vacuum metallized gold with some flat black details.

:[[Tiny Turbo Changers]] Bumblebee is a small, stumpy, soft-plastic [[blindpacking|blind-bagged]] mini-figure that changes from robot to a Concept Camaro 2016 with just a few simple steps. He features hands that are compatible with ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' weapons and other 3 mm post accessories. Like all Tiny Turbo Changers, his vehicle-mode tires do not spin, sorry. His legs are attached backwards in package. However, his legs can be easily dismantled from the hood/feet & the waist, flipping the legs backwards, and reassembled.

:Despite bearing the Concept Camaro 2016-ish vehicle mode, his robot mode sculpt and paint applications resemble his appearance in ''Age of Extinction''.

:He and the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#TinyTurboChanger|Optimus Prime]] were available in the first two series of the line, with no noteworthy changes between releases – even Bumblebee's misassembled legs and their bag codes remain unchanged. Their instruction books were, however, updated to say "Series 2".

:Bumblebee was re-released in the second wave of the Premier Edition Deluxe line, and now features a black section on the car roof & the rear section of the vehicle shell. The easiest way to identify the variant is by looking at the bottom rear piece while the figure is in-package, as the black paint can be seen through the clear plastic. This variant also applies to the TakaraTomy release of the figure. Due to this, the initial variant became less common.

:On many copies of this toy, the pegs securing the feet come undone easily, making the feet floppy, while some parts like the "wings" are prone to becoming detached. Despite what the instructions say, the left arm should be pulled sideways out of the joint instead of down to prevent breakage of the connection. On several occasions, the only way to secure the feet's pegs is by pressing the pieces together firmly. (Make sure the pieces are properly adjusted.)

:The TakaraTomy stock photo of the robot mode has the waist kibble slightly mistransformed.

**''Accessories'': 2 projectiles (1977 Camaro Bumblebee), Missile (1967 Camaro Bumblebee), Detachable Arm Cannon (2016 Camaro Bumblebee)

:''[[Transformers Tribute]]'' Bumblebee Evolution 3-pack consists of redecos of [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys|the first Deluxe Class Bumblebee figure from the 2007 Movie]], [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys 5|High Octane Bumblebee from ''Age of Extinction'']], and the most recent, [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#ThirdTLKDeluxe|second ''Premier Edition'' Bumblebee figure]]. The 3-pack features particularly unique packaging, modeled after a garage, complete with graffiti.

:For the 1977 Camaro Bumblebee figure, he uses the opaque windows from the Hasbro release and the fixed Automorph gimmick from the Towed to Safety and the Evolution of a Hero 2-packs. Paint operations on this Bumblebee are minimized compared to his original release, omitting the battle damage on the vehicle mode and some smaller details of his robot mode such as the blue stripes on his thighs and parts of his face. The Automorph button does not use the painted stripes from the Evolution of a Hero 2-pack.

:The 1967 Camaro Bumblebee figure keeps the paint layout of its original "High Octane" release, but features several plastic color differences: The yellow parts are changed from a darker, more orange-y tone to the same lighter shade of yellow plastic shared among all the figures in this set, with the yellow paint operations and tampographs in vehicle mode changed accordingly, all the charcoal-colored parts are replaced by black plastic, the missile (and all of the unpaintable plastic joints) is changed from black to yellow, the baby blue paint operations for the eyes are changed to a darker tone, and the fully transparent windows are now a slightly tinted translucent plastic.

:The 2017 Camaro Bumblebee figure also features smoky translucent plastic in his windows as opposed to the original's entirely transparent ones. The Hasbro stock photo for his robot mode still depicts him holding his arm cannon as a gun. This also applies to Takara's secondary stock photos. Speaking of Takara, his vehicle mode roof is also slightly mistransformed.

:The set also saw release as an Amazon Japan exclusive.

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Studio Series]]'' Deluxe Class toys, Bumblebee transforms into a yellow 1977 Chevrolet Camaro based on his appearance in the first live-action ''Transformers'' movie in 22 steps. He recycles the engineering of [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|''The Last Knight Premier Edition'' Bumblebee]] with all new parts, and is slightly smaller than said mold to fit in the new ''Studio Series'' scale. As a consequence of borrowing sculpting from the ''Premier Edition'' figure, this version of Bumblebee has some inaccuracies, including the arrows on top of his head, the panels on top of his shoulders, and the design of his forearms and thighs. Bumblebee uses a [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|fake]] front grill on his robot mode chest, which the real grill slides over in vehicle mode. He also features rectangular holes on his lower front bumper, the rocker panels, the rear end of the front hood, and the lower valance, all meant for a [[#SS15|later release]].

:Bumblebee includes a cardboard backdrop display depicting his encounter with [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] and a Stinger Blaster based on the one from the ''Premier Edition'' figure, though mirrored to accurately attach to the right arm like the [[#MB18|''Movie The Best'' War Hammer Bumblebee]] toy. This version replaces the forearm using a hex peg instead of swapping at the bicep joint. The blaster/forearm stores behind the waist when not in use. The blaster can be mounted onto the rear bumper in vehicle mode.

:Depending on the individual sample's quality control, Bumblebee has some problems with parts (notably the rear section of the vehicle) refusing to lock together and continually detaching from their proper position thanks to some tolerance issues. His lack of pins on the car roof, combined with said quality control issues, make the transformation ''absolute hell'' if followed by the instructions. Thankfully, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bm921hDELGM ways] have been found to transform him to help remedy this problem. Also, be careful with the shin pieces as they can collide during transformation, scraping off the yellow paint.

:Bumblebee, along with the rest of Wave 1 Deluxes, was made available at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] following New York [[Toy Fair 2018]], two months ahead of the scheduled brick and mortar release. The second run of the toy features a running change that eventually amends the quality control issues that plagued the first run. The fixed version's date code is written as "80201". Sadly some copies carrying this code still have the QC issues from the original figure.

**''Accessories'': Detachable Stinger Blaster, bumper, 2 rocker panels, 2 spoilers, 2 hoods, [[Charlie Watson#Studio Series|Charlie Watson]] figurine, "Highway Freedom" backdrop

:This ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee is a redeco of the above ''Studio Series'' 01 toy, featuring new customizable parts (front bumper, rocker panels, two spoiler options, and two hood options) for his vehicle mode to evoke the look of a muscle car (while making use of the rectangular holes from the original toy), though they prevent him from fully transforming into robot mode while attached (with the exception of the car hoods). The set includes a Charlie Watson [[Slug figure|figurine]] wearing a shirt with the ''Bumblebee'' logo. Compared to the first ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee toy, he has a black front grill with extra yellow paint on his hands and shoulders, but loses the striping on the vehicle shells and chest, the silver on the feet and on the blaster's arm guard, and the paint on his torso flap. Instead, a vast sticker sheet is included with multiple different decals to customize the figure.

:This set was originally intended as a [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive and had the working name "Rebekah's Garage" (presumably the name of the originally intended backdrop scene; the general retail wave 3 figure listed below has a "Charlie's Garage" backdrop), but because of Toys"R"Us's bankruptcy, those plans were changed. After having been found at a single [[Target]] store in the United States before it was even officially announced, it was revealed as an alleged [[Entertainment Earth]] "exclusive", but was simultaneously also listed by competing online retailers such as [[BigBadToyStore]] and ToyWiz, in many instances still under the old working name. It ''was'' released as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in Canada, with store price tags featuring yet ''another'' working name, "Street Racer Set". Neither name can be found on the packaging, which simply calls the figure "Bumblebee" with no additional prefix or suffix, and the included backdrop is "Highway Freedom", depicting a scenic coastal drive.

:All stock photos of the toy's robot mode are mistransformed: his back kibble/car roof is not folded into his back. They also have his blaster jammed over his right hand instead of swapping out the arm. Best not to replicate this as it may damage the parts.

**''Accessories'': Detachable Gatling Gun, arm blade, battle-mask face, "Charlie's Garage" backdrop

:Part of the third wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, Bumblebee transforms from a robot based on the ''Bumblebee'' film into a 1967 Volkswagen Beetle and back! He is based on concept art for the film, and thus has numerous inaccurate details, most notably the large door wings that weren't present on the final design. At the time, he was one of the smallest Deluxes in ''Studio Series'', standing at the same height as [[Jazz (Movie)#Studio Series|Jazz]], due to his small stature in the ''Bumblebee'' film itself.

:He comes with a detachable right Gatling Gun arm, an arm blade that can be attached to either forearm, and a battle mask that can be switched out with his removable face. All his accessories can be attached to the underside of his car or to his back in robot mode, with the unused face hanging off one of his smaller door wings. Bumblebee cannot be transformed with his Gatling gun arm on. Also included is a backdrop showing Charlie’s garage.

:Like the first ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee, this figure also suffers from several design flaws exacerbated by potential quality control issues. Due to the tolerance-altering layers of paint involved, the connection between the face pieces and the back of the head can either be too tight or pop off easily, potentially causing paint chipping. Meanwhile, his vehicle mode's kibble has some minor tabbing issues, notably on the waist piece. His 5 mm-compatible hands are prone to popping out if rotated back too far, and his door wings in robot mode have a tendency to flop over time. However, a gradual running change seems to have fixed these errors almost entirely.

:The vehicle hood and roof that forms his backpack is meant to lock securely into a groove on his upper back in robot mode, but there are two tabs along his back that make this process ''very'' difficult and pose the risk of breaking the translucent plastic hinge that has to be forced over them during transformation. While the first tab, located on his waist, is required to store his gun arm, the second tab just below the groove can be sanded down to ease transformation.

:TakaraTomy stock photos of the figure are actually those of their [[#7NetBattleDamage|rusty redeco]] of the figure, as evidenced by the missing silver paint on his feet and remnants of the added rust deco that were not completely edited out. This also makes the photos an unintentional reveal of the [[#SS24|Then & Now Bumblebee]] figure. One of the robot mode stock photos is also slightly mistransformed: his chest pieces are not locked correctly.

:To commemorate the ''Bumblebee'' movie, this ''Studio Series'' Bumblebee is a redeco of the [[#Studio Series|1977 Camaro mold]] based on the 1978-81 Camaro Z28, featuring smokier windows, dark gold plastic, and gold painted vehicle parts. He also features a different vehicle striping with miniature ''Bumblebee'' logos and a "Z28" label. In addition, the set uses a lineup number of 19, the second Hasbro exclusive in ''Studio Series'' to possess a number after [[Thundercracker (Movie)#Studio Series|Thundercracker]]. This Bumblebee uses the second run of the mold, which appears to be much more stable than the initial retail release.

:The real selling point of this set is the addition of two ''Japanese-original'' Mini-Cassettes: [[Dairu#Toys|Dairu]] and [[Uruaz#Toys|Uruaz]], the first ever Hasbro releases of the molds.

:This set also bucks the typical ''Studio Series'' packaging design, having a special cassette-styled box inside of a decorated sleeve and omitting the line’s signature backdrop displays. The back of the sleeve lists [[User:BluJayWarrior/SSRetroSongReferences|Transformers-themed parodies]] of real song titles and amusingly includes a disclaimer saying “Product does not contain music”.

:This set debuted at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2018 and was later made available via Hasbro Toy Shop. It also saw later release at Paris Comic-Con 2018 and in Japan as Tokyo Comic Con 2018 and TakaraTomy Mall exclusives. In Taiwan, this set was available at general retail.

:This set also has the addition of two ''Japanese-original'' Mini-Cassettes: [[Uriad]], a color-swapped transparent redeco of [[Dairu#Toys|Dairu]], and [[Zauru]], a predeco of [[Uruaz#Toys|Uruaz]] in the original Zaur colors, requiring collectors who wanted the combined [[Legout]] in G1 colors to get both Retro Rock and Retro Pop sets.

**''Accessories'': Detachable Gatling Gun, arm blade, battle-mask face, "California Hideout" backdrop / detachable Stinger Blaster, "London Escape" backdrop

:This ''Studio Series'' two-pack consists of 24 "Bumblebee 1967 Volkswagen Beetle", a redeco of the [[#SS18|Beetle mold]], and 25 "Bumblebee 2016 Chevrolet Camaro", a redeco of the second [[#ThirdTLKDeluxe|''Premier Edition'' mold]]. This Beetle Bumblebee features a number of rusty paint applications along the sides and front of the car and the silver paint operations are removed from his feet, which was previously seen in the TakaraTomy stock photo of the individual release. Additionally, the Autobot symbol on his non-battle mask face is larger. Deco omissions on the Camaro Bumblebee include the silver on the shins and shoulders. There is more black paint on the rocker panels and the front bumper.

:Both figures come with individual deluxe-sized backdrops, though they share one instruction sheet. The "California Hideout" backdrop is identical to the "Charlie's Garage" backdrop included with the first Beetle release. The Camaro Bumblebee’s backdrop depicts his chase through the streets of [[London]].

:The CG renders on the packaging depict the Beetle Bumblebee having silver paint on his feet, while the Camaro Bumblebee has the silver paint on his biceps, shins, and kneecaps.

:The name "Bumblebee Then & Now Two-Pack" comes from their BigBadToyStore listing<ref>''Studio Series'' Bumblebee Then & Now Two-Pack at [https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/87393 BigBadToyStore]</ref> and display names at conventions. The final set only has the names of the individual figures.

:The set was initially exclusive to Target in the U.S., and later, BigBadToyStore. The Beetle Bumblebee figure was released as an exclusive for Japan's 7net site (see below). Target reissued the set in 2021.

**''Movie'': '''''The Last Knight'''''
**''Hasbro ID number'': '''26'''
**''TakaraTomy name'': '''World War II Bumblebee'''
**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''SS-19'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[January 26]], 2019
**''Accessories'': Pistol, hammer, "WWII Flashback" backdrop

:Part of the fifth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, "WWII Bumblebee" is based on his appearance during [[World War II]] in ''The Last Knight''. Rather than transforming into the Mercedes-Benz car as seen in the movie, he transforms into an armored car as in [[Josh Nizzi]]'s concept art for the character — though it's a ''different'' armored car, being a {{W|Humber Light Reconnaissance Car}} rather than a {{w|Humber Scout Car}}! The vehicle parts feature a subtle olive paint wash. In a near-unnoticeable detail, the Autobot insignia can barely be seen on his forehead as it blends in ''too'' well with the green plastic.

:Bumblebee's Warhammer, based on the one used in World War II (and can double as a monotone version of the warhammer used in his fight against Optimus), doubles as a vehicle mode artillery barrel, with his handgun transforming into a top-mounted turret. While the turret base can be rotated, the pistol's handle is loose enough to swivel while mounted on, rendering the feature pointless. The hammer can be mounted on his robot back, and can be rotated to have the handle pointing upwards like in the movie. The gun has no designated storage in robot mode, but the backpack can be transformed into its vehicle mode configuration to store both weapons. The backdrop displays the Allied assault on a Nazi building. Bumblebee only comes with one gun despite wielding two of them in this scene.

:WWII Bumblebee also features a pseudo-[[Automorph Technology|Automorph gimmick]]: His front chest panel can be pushed up/down, extending/retracting his head. Due to his transformation scheme, WWII Bumblebee is a [[shellformer]], with the majority of the vehicle shells hanging on his rear. The kibble backpack also blocks the 3 mm hole for display stands unless it's slightly lifted up. In a rather baffling design flaw, the holes on the chest panel are seemingly meant to lock with the shoulder joints' tabs, but they are too far apart to be tabbed in. On the bright side, the arms are not easily dislodged further from the central body as the backpack holds the shoulder assembly in place.

:This mold was retooled into [[Hot Rod (DOTM)#Studio Series|WWII Hot Rod]].

**''Accessories'': Detachable Stinger Blaster, "[[Bolivia's Finest Quality Used Cars and Petting Zoo|Used Car Shopping]]" backdrop

:Part of the fifth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, "Clunker Bumblebee" is a redeco of the [[#Studio Series|''Studio Series'' 1977 Camaro Bumblebee]], sporting a deco representing the beat-up look he had when first found by Sam, and even comes with a backdrop of [[Bolivia's Finest Quality Used Cars and Petting Zoo]]!

:The deco seems to be based on the [[#SSTaoBao|Taobao giveaway figure]] (or perhaps, using the same slightly inaccurate reference), though not as finely detailed. Consequently, he is missing a large rust spot on the back of the roof and there is extra rust on the doors and back, among other differences. There are also other paint changes on this figure: his chest's stripes and stomach's paint apps are omitted like the [[#SS15|Charlie Watson multipack]], the rear vehicle stripes are shortened, and the Stinger Blaster is entirely coated in silver (except the pegs). Some yellow paint is omitted from his forearms and the painted pegs on the feet that connect with the thighs in vehicle mode are removed. The Autobot symbol on his forehead is also slightly narrower.

:This release of the mold finally adds pins for the car roof's midsection, which prevents it from falling off during transformation.

**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[January 25]], [[2020]]
**''Accessories'': Stinger Blaster, "City Tunnel Switch" backdrop

:The fifth general retail Bumblebee figure in the ''Studio Series'' lineup, this Bumblebee represents his updated form in the 2007 ''Transformers'' movie and transforms in a whopping 39 steps, with some transformation cues taken from his ''Studio Series'' [[#Studio Series|1977 Camaro version]] and from the ''Dark of the Moon'' [[#NitroBee|Nitro Bumblebee]] mold. Like the [[#MPM3|''Masterpiece Movie'' figure]], this Bumblebee does not actually turn into his screen-accurate 2006 Camaro Concept, but rather a production 2010 Camaro, likely due to licensing. Notable differences are the shaping of the front bumper and the inclusion of an antenna on the roof.

:His head comes with a non-removable battle mask, which is on the same size ball joint as the original and Clunker versions of Bumblebee in this line, allowing you to easily swap the heads. Unlike the past ''Studio Series'' Camaro Bees, he has a Stinger Blaster that can simply be plugged into his hand, without the need to replace his arm. The blaster can be stored on the back of his robot or car mode. Because of the physical space needed to store the arms in vehicle mode, Bumblebee has a thin waist (with a front stomach panel to compensate) when viewed from the side. Though not depicted at right, his door-wings can be tilted upward to more accurately replicate their orientation in the movie. He comes with a cardboard backdrop display based on the tunnel interior where he scanned his new vehicle mode in ''Transformers''.

:This Bumblebee was reissued through Target in August 2024,<ref>[https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/ss-49-bumblebee-on-target-com.1266254/ SS-49 Bumblee Reissue at Target]</ref> with Pulse orders beginning in early September.

:Part of the ninth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, "Offroad Bumblebee" transforms into a licensed Willys MB Jeep from the opening of ''Bumblebee''. He includes a blaster accessory that can clip over his right arm and onto his backpack for storage, as well as under the jeep mode. An alternate storage method is to fit it into a gap in his back; this way is still secure and avoids chipping the painted jeep hood. The cardboard backdrop display depicts his battle with [[Blitzwing (BB)|Blitzwing]].

:Despite the accuracy of most of the mold, the sculpt of the shoulders and thighs are for some reason based on those of the [[#SS18|VW Beetle mold]] instead of the film's Jeep design.

:This Bumblebee is capable of using the blade included with the VW Beetle mold and the more accurately shaped one from the later [[#SS100|''Rise of the Beasts'' mold]], as they all use the same arm ports.

:As was undeniably inevitable, ''Studio Series'' "B-127" is a retool/redeco of [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Studio Series|Cliffjumper]], the mold itself being a retool of the above Offroad Bumblebee mold. This figure is based on Bumblebee's Cybertronian form in the ''Bumblebee'' film, transforming into a yellow Cybertronian car. The arms, thighs, and pelvis are inaccurate to this version of the character as they are reused from Offroad Bumblebee, not to mention the lack of yellow paint on the shoulders and thighs. He features a battle mask head that can be swapped with Offroad Bee's unmasked head, though the yellow plastics between the two are slightly different shades.

:He comes with a redeco of the Gatling gun accessory with silver and gunmetal paint and a cardboard backdrop display depicting a war-torn Cybertron as it appears in the beginning of the film. The blaster stores under the canopy in alt mode and simply drops into a gap in the robot mode's backpack.

:Part of the thirteenth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, this Bumblebee is a general retail re-release of the ''[[Buzzworthy Bumblebee]]'' toy [[#BW74|below]] (though in all fairness, it's very likely this version was supposed to come out ''first'' had it not been for the sudden addition of the '86 figures to the ''Studio Series'' lineup). This figure, like his Buzzworthy release, is a slight recolor and remold of the above ''Studio Series'' 49 Bumblebee, with new wheels and front section of the car to reflect his 2010 Camaro Concept, a slightly resculpted blaster, and includes a static Sam Witwicky figurine. This version sports a more accurate orange-yellow color and new racing stripes, but also uses less accurate light gray plastic and silver paint applications, and has no paint on his feet. He is also conspicuously lacking black paint apps on the sides of his bumper, though this is more accurate to his robot mode. The box and cardboard backdrop depicting [[Operation: Firestorm]] are changed to the normal ''Studio Series'' graphics as opposed to ''Buzzworthy Bumblebee''. The box art reuses an old image of Bumblebee with his shoulder cannons, which are not included with this release.

:''Studio Series'' "N.E.S.T. Bumblebee" is a desaturated gray and silver redeco of the above [[#SS57|Offroad Bumblebee]], with a nameless repack of the Sam Witwicky figure originally included with [[#BW74|74BB ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Bumblebee]], which was meant to depict [[NEST]] personnel (dubbed "Officer Walken" by designer [[Mark Maher]]). Bumblebee also features clear green headlights and windows, and the Universal Studios version of the NEST/Autobot emblem on his hood. Though not based on the films, his color scheme of gray with subtle green highlights and an organization badge coincidentally evokes the [[#Daredevil|''Dark of the Moon'' Autobot Daredevil Squad Bumblebee]]. Maher envisioned this figure as being a drone built by NEST, but this is not reflected in the final product description.

:The seemingly odd choice for this figure's coloration is explained by the fact that it was originally intended for [[Transformers: Universal Studios|Universal Studios]]'s ''[[Transformers: The Ride – 3D]]'', just like "[[Megatron (Movie)/toys#SSUniversal|As Seen In Parks Megatron]]", but due to the global {{w|COVID-19 pandemic}}, [[Universal]] had to temporarily close its theme parks. Looking for another outlet to release the two figures instead of waiting for the pandemic to be over, Hasbro made them both available as "shared exclusives" between several online retailers in the US, such as [[Hasbro Pulse]], [[BigBadToyStore]], or [[Entertainment Earth]]. While it was too late to completely redesign Megatron's packaging, N.E.S.T. Bumblebee was still in an early enough stage of development that Hasbro could change the packaging design and brand him as part of the ''[[Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee]]'' film, despite never sporting that color scheme in the film itself.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=That was handled by another designer, but it was intended to released as a universal parks aligned Nest vehicle to go along with their in park experience which is based on NEST not Sector 7.

:The official promotional render of the figure's packaging humorously misspells Bumblebee's name as '''Bumblbebee'''. It's only been ''37 years'', guys. (It's spelled correctly on the actual packaging.)

:Part of the seventeenth wave of ''Studio Series'' Deluxe Class toys, Bumblebee is now based on his ''Dark of the Moon'' appearance. He's a significant, if subtle, retool of the [[#SS49|''Studio Series'' 49 mold]], featuring all new parts for his alt mode, except for the clear parts, roof, and door hinges, to accurately replicate his 2011 Camaro SS mode (and finally making the antenna on the roof accurate). In robot mode, he features a new armored faux chest and a slightly modified unmasked headsculpt, though it is lacking the usual Autobot symbol tampograph. He is missing the panels on top of his shoulders (ironically, they were inaccurately added to the [[#Studio Series|1977 Camaro mold]]) and the smaller wings are still made of his windows instead of the spoiler. He is also lacking paint on his feet, parts of his shoulders, and the rear vehicle stripes, in exchange for paint apps on his bumpers, roof, and chest. This is the first version of the mold to correctly leave the tops of the door windows unpainted. Bumblebee comes with yet another slightly resculpted Stinger Blaster, which can be handheld and stores on his back or on the rear of the car.

:Like the other ''Studio Series'' toys, the interior of the package forms a display backdrop, depicting the Battle of Chicago. Hasbro stock images and CG renders forgot to fold down his secondary wings, while the former also has his chest mistransformed. The box art actually depicts Bumblebee in his ''Revenge of the Fallen'' design, though it was a new render used to promote ''Dark of the Moon''.

:Bumblebee and his wavemates were revealed on [[May 10]], 2022, with preorders coming up the same day. Unusually for a modern ''Generations'' release, Bumblebee was revealed by [[TakaraTomy]] before [[Hasbro]], which usually unveils upcoming toys before or simultaneously with TakaraTomy.

:"15th Anniversary" Bumblebee is a redeco/retool of the ''Studio Series'' 49 figure, featuring altered paint applications and plastic color changes. He utilizes the unmasked head from the above ''Dark of the Moon'' version, this time with the Autobot tampograph added, as well as the racing stripes from the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' version. On this version, the black plastic has been replaced with light gray, the yellow and dark gray plastics are lighter, and the clear plastic is a much darker translucent black. The gunmetal paint operations and headlights are now silver. Notably, paint applications were removed from his feet, faux chest, arm guards, and most of his shoulders.

:Some owners have noted that this version has much looser joints, especially in the legs, possibly from [[Mold#Deterioration|mold degradation]].

:This figure comes in an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive 5-pack alongside redecoes of ''Studio Series'' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Optimus Prime]], [[Ironhide (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Ironhide]], [[Ratchet (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Ratchet]] and [[Jazz (Movie)#SS15thAnniversary|Jazz]], released to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the first live-action [[Transformers (film)|''Transformers'' film]]. The pack comes with a unique reversible backdrop depicting the alley where the Autobots first met Sam on one side and the exterior of Sam's house on the other.

:The 100th numbered release in ''Studio Series'', this Deluxe Bumblebee is based on his appearance in ''[[Transformers: Rise of the Beasts (film)|Transformers: Rise of the Beasts]]'', transforming into a licensed 1977 Camaro with off-road modifications. He has black stripes on the roof that are inaccurate to the movie and is missing the Autobot symbol on his forehead. In a rare move, this toy features separate clear pieces for the windows.

:He comes with his Stinger Blaster and an arm blade. The blaster clips over his right hand. The unpainted arm blade attaches to either arm and is compatible with past ''Studio Series [[#SS18|Bumblebee]]'' [[#SS57|movie]] [[#SS70|Bees]]. Both accessories can store on his wings in robot mode. In car mode, the sword stores underneath while the blaster attaches to the rear. His backdrop depicts the volcanic final battle. His instructions have a small error, it shows folding the light segments up for transformation, which is their robot mode position. They should be folded all the way down, and will then click to horizontal when you push the grill into place.

:According to Sam Smith, the blade was originally intended for an "alternate release" before being packed in with this one. The blade ultimately didn't appear in the movie itself, where Bee dual-wields blasters instead. The included blaster can be held in his left hand, albeit upside down and exposing the top of the hand. Ironically, the blaster is cast in yellow plastic painted over in gray, whereas it was still mostly yellow in the film. Though perhaps this is a moot point as this toy's blaster is still based on its ''Bumblebee'' design anyway.

:A [[variant]] of this Bumblebee was found with a more completely painted face in a darker silver, though this means his yellow cheeks have been inaccurately painted over as well. This variant became more common in later cases of the figure. The repack in Wave 22 no longer uses plastic-free packaging.

:Part of the seventh wave of ''[[Studio Series]]'' Core Class figures, Bumblebee is a retool of [[Laserbeak (DOTM)#SSCore|Laserbeak]] with a battle-masked head and additional tabs to lock his doors more securely in alt mode. He transforms into a licensed 2011 Concept Camaro and includes a [[Fire Blast effect]] compatible cannon that can be handheld or placed on the roof/robot's back.

:It would appear that this mold was partially based on the model of Deluxe Class [[#SS87|''Studio Series'' 87 Bumblebee]], as he retains the inner struts on the spoiler and the two slots on his rear bumper meant for the Deluxe's blaster, though at this scale they aren't compatible with anything.

:The packaging is decorated with artwork depicting the location in Chicago where Bee was nearly executed. The box art once again depicts his ''Revenge of the Fallen'' design rather than his ''Dark of the Moon'' one.

While he still has the inaccurate door wings, they can now swivel down to be somewhat hidden from view. The retooling also results in the rear side windows being painted and the unfortunate removal of his waist rotation.

:He comes with new gatling gun and arm blade accessories closer to their final designs.

He's surprisingly complex and posable, sharing many broad engineering tricks with his ''Studio Series'' and ''Masterpiece'' incarnations. The major gimmick of this toy is the "Power Charge Core", a large translucent blue drum in his chest that, when rotated, makes numerous lights and sounds. In robot mode, it plays radio clips, while in vehicle mode, it makes various engine noises. He also features a deployable battle mask and arm-blade.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Speed Series, 2018)

:Released as part of ''Bumblebee'' Energon Igniter's Speed Series line, this Bumblebee is a Legends/Legion-sized mold that transforms from robot into a licensed Volkswagen Beetle in just a few steps, and he features 3 mm compatible hands. Bumblebee can also be attached to the Energon Igniters core, and due to the toy being lightweight, it can propel his vehicle mode forward very quickly. As the port is 5 mm compatible, Bumblebee can mount with other smaller weapons with the same post size, making him an efficient weapon-towing vehicle. Due to being used with transformation, Bumblebee features a pair of well-articulated legs, as long you don't mind the Energon Igniters port sticking out from his left knee. Apart from the sculpted Volkswagen symbol on his front hood, Bumblebee doesn't have any single Autobot insignia tampographed or sculpted on.

:The instructions tell you that his front window panel needs to be clicked back and forth during transformation, though the said panel is super tight to the point of being reinforced. However, with a little strength of pushing it down, The panel can freely click as intended.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Speed Series, 2018)

:Based on Bumblebee's appearance in the 2007 movie and the pre-credits scene in the ''Bumblebee'' movie, this Speed Series Bumblebee now transforms into a 1977 Chevrolet Camaro. The figure's proportions and sculpted detail are significantly improved compared to his [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Legends Class toys|first Legends Class figure]], though the new transformation leaves him with a faux chest and no trademark door-wings. His vehicle mode is largely unpainted, save for a single black paint app for the windshield and hood stripes. The black unpaintable patches on the car roof evoke roof stripes... even though this vehicle mode never ''had'' that detailing. He also features pinned wheels instead of the simple-assembly ones. In a surprisingly near-unnoticeable detail, the Autobot Insignia is sculpted on his fake chest. He shares a similar transformation scheme with ''Robots in Disguise (2015)'' Legion Class [[Sideswipe (RID)#Legion Class|Sideswipe]].

:Due to minor [[Design flaw#Clipping issues|clipping issues]] and potentially a case of [[Design flaw#Inferior glue|inferior glue]], pulling out his arms/vehicle headlights while converting into robot mode with excessive force can snap his 3 mm hands from his arms. Thankfully, as the hands are separate pieces, you can glue them back on with relative ease. It is unknown how many copies suffer from this flaw. Also, stock photos of his robot mode depict his eyes being unpainted.

*'''Bumblebee / Airazor / Autobot Mirage''' (Jungle Mission 3-pack, July 2023)
**''Accessories'': 2 bumper daggers, rollcage/"shield"

:Included as part of a Target-exclusive ''[[Buzzworthy Bumblebee]]'' "Jungle Mission 3-pack", this Bumblebee is another Deluxe Class iteration of the character that converts into a licensed off-road 1977 Camaro. His front bumper splits to become two hand-held daggers, and the rollcage that goes on his windshield can be attached to his left arm as a "shield". His right forearm can rotate to become a plasma cannon, which features a hexagonal 5 mm port in its barrel.

:The back of his head has a transparent section to allow for [[light-piping]], however the effect is mostly neutered since his eyes are painted over.

:This Bumblebee has two major [[design flaw]]s in robot mode: his neck has no locking point and the torso does not tab together securely, resulting the figure coming apart very easily when handling. His knees are also soft locked to only bend straight, 45, and 90 degrees.

:This set also includes [[Airazor (ROTB)#Buzzworthy Bumblebee|Airazor]] and [[Mirage (Movie)#Buzzworthy Bumblebee|Mirage]].

However, the desaturated yellow seems to be specifically based on the beach scene with Charlie. Of note, his eyes and the surrounding space are given far larger paint applications.

==Notes==
*A weapon considered for Bumblebee was a pair of arm-mounted electrical [[Stinger (weapon)|stingers]]. The Bumblebee Camaro '09 toy's blade weapon might have been influenced by this early concept.
*[[Aaron Archer]] mentioned that when Hasbro received pictures of numerous toys of Bumblebee [[shelfwarmer|shelf-warming]], they finally realized that they had indeed gone overboard with his toys. Archer suggested a need for a certain amount of yellow-colored toys in each wave, hence the large amount of Bumblebees released per wave.

{{disambig3.5|G1 Optimus Prime's drone unit|the pre-war policeman Autobot|Roller (IDW)|Roller}}
:''Roller is <s>target practice</s> a component of [[Autobot]] leader [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:Roller.jpg|upright=1.95|thumb|Roller should not look this cool.]]

'''Roller''' is a small, cart-shaped device that Optimus Prime uses to slip unobtrusively behind enemy lines. He can maintain radio control over Roller at distances up to 1200 miles. Having Roller present somewhere is like being there himself.

Roller is a droid, able to function autonomously without Optimus's active oversight. But without Optimus, by far the most important of the three modules, Roller would not survive. Optimus shows great attachment and concern for Roller, who is left particularly vulnerable by the behind-the-scenes situations in which it specializes.

At least in one alternate reality, Roller combines with [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]] to form [[Grand Galvatron]].

Roller's nature varies: in some realities, he is a drone component of Optimus Prime, while in others he is a sentient individual. Sometimes he is previously known as '''Barrelroller''' (バレルローラー ''Barerurōrā'') and later becomes known as the '''Micro Carrier''' (マイクロキャリア ''Maikuro Kyaria'') or '''Apex Bomber'''.

==Fiction==
===Generation 1 cartoon continuity===
====''The Transformers'' cartoon====
[[File:Roller deploy.jpg|left|thumb|Roller's one tough little Autobot.]]
When [[Bumblebee (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Bumblebee]] and [[Sparkplug Witwicky]] were caught by [[Decepticon]]s, and with the clock ticking on the bomb they planted, [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] sent Roller into the mine. When the bomb exploded, Optimus was nearly destroyed, {{storylink|More than Meets the Eye, Part 2}} but Roller emerged cheekily unscathed, prompting [[Jazz (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Jazz]] to observe "Roller's one tough little Autobot!" {{storylink|More than Meets the Eye, Part 3}}

[[File:Roller outsmart.jpg|thumb|Roller exploits a tactical opening.]]

Another of [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Megatron]]'s schemes involved sabotaging the Autobots' recharging chamber with a personality destabilizer device, turning a good number of them, including Optimus Prime, "evil". When the unaffected Autobots attempted to restore Prime back to normal, he split into his three components. Both Roller and the Combat Deck attempted to take the Autobots out, but [[Hound (G1)|Hound]] was able to nail them both with attitude exchangers and stop their attacks. {{storylink|Attack of the Autobots (episode)|Attack of the Autobots}}

The Autobots were stuck in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] by the [[Transfixatron]]. With [[Ironhide (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ironhide]] in the claws of Megatron's car-crushing machine, only Roller could save the day! Roller led the Decepticons on a merry chase, allowing Optimus to rescue Ironhide from the jaws of undignified death! {{storylink|The Autobot Run}}
{{l-}}

====Japanese cartoon continuity====
=====''Collector's Edition'' toy bio=====
Several million years ago on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], when Optimus Prime was a mere transport and delivery worker known as Orion Pax, Roller was an industrial droid known as Barrelroller.<ref name="Barrelroller">The character is referred to as simply "Roller" (ローラー) in the materials that come with e-HOBBY's Orion Pax, but the toy's expanded bio found on e-HOBBY's website refers to the droid as "Barrelroller" (バレルローラー).</ref> He transformed into an electromagnetic lift handle that helped Orion in his warehouse work moving heavy cargo. When Orion was fatally wounded by Megatron and rebuilt by [[Alpha Trion]] as Optimus Prime, Barrelroller was rebuilt into Roller. {{storylink|#Collector's Edition|''Collector's Edition'' Orion Pax toy bio}}

=====''Unite Warriors''/''Legends''=====
{{Note|In this portion of the [[Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity]], Roller the buggy drone is the same individual as [[Roller (IDW)|Roller the full-size Transformer]]. See the other Roller's page for more on his exploits in continuities where he is a separate individual.}}
{{:Roller/UW}}
=====''The Battlestars''=====
When Optimus Prime was restored to life as Star Convoy, he was equipped with an upgraded version of Roller known as the Micro Carrier.

The Micro Carrier would be instrumental in the Autobots' victory over the [[Novaroid|Great Novaroids]]. {{storylink|Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: The Battlestars (story page)|The Battlestars story page #7}}

=====''Generations Selects Special Comic''=====
By [[2050]], Roller had been restored to his more traditional design and accompanied Optimus Prime to [[Neo Scramble City]]. {{storylink|Volcanicus comic 1}}

====''Wings Universe''====
{{Wingsnote}}
Nine million years ago, Barrelroller was carried around by [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Orion Pax]], who worked at [[storage yard 67]] along with his friends [[Elita One (G1)|Ariel]] and [[Dion (G1)|Dion]]. {{storylink|Battle Lines, Part 1}}

===Marvel Comics continuity===
[[File:Roller g2.jpg|thumb|upright=0.55|Roller's extreme phase in the '90s.]]

====Marvel ''The Transformers'' comics====
{{noteukonly}}
''[[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]] used his Roller unit to command a battle in [[Washington, D.C.]] while actually sneaking away from the action to find [[Ravage (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Ravage]]. [[Kickback (G1)|Kickback]] swooped in and destroyed Roller, causing Optimus Prime to double over in pain, and ironically saving him from the Insecticon [[Bombshell (G1)|Bombshell]]'s [[cerebro-shell]].'' {{storylink|Plague of the Insecticons!}}

====Marvel ''Generation 2'' comic====
Roller provided covering fire for Optimus Prime and [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]] as they fled the [[Cybertronian (faction)|Cybertronian]] army. {{storylink|Total War!}}

===Ladybird Books continuity===
[[File:MegatronsFightforPower Roller.jpg|upright=0.85|thumb|left|They see me rollin', they hatin'.]]
[[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike]]'s sally to sneakily sabotage the Solar Station was stymied by a sealed storage-door. Roller to the Rescue! Sent scuttling through the sage, secreted from [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]]'s sight, to supply a Cybertronian [[sonic multi-tool]]. Roller had saved the day!

''Spike's subsequent sabotage of the solar station and ensuing detonation of the [[energon cube]]s in it could be construed (in some small way) to save the day as well.''
{{storylink|Megatron's Fight for Power}}

===Highway Clash===
{{notemultipath}}
Optimus and [[Prowl (G1)|Prowl]] secretly guarded a shipment of microchips that could be used to imbue sentience onto robots. While on this mission, Optimus had brought along Roller for extra protection against possible Decepticon threats. {{storylink|Highway Clash}}

At [[Brasnya]], [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]] ordered [[Blitzwing (G1)|Blitzwing]] to wait for Optimus Prime to come into range before firing on him. Optimus discreetly sent Roller ahead to intercept Blitzwing, and at the last moment, Roller blew him up good. {{storylink|Escalation issue 4|Escalation #4}} Unfortunately, the same trick didn't work on Megatron, who buried the poor guy under a pile of rocks. However, this bought Optimus Prime the time to transfer his consciousness to his trailer section. {{storylink|Escalation issue 5|Escalation #5}}

: ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|The Transformers]]'' Roller was included with the original [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Generation 1|Optimus Prime]] toy (as well as its many rereleases). Roller is a small, six-wheeled vehicle resembling an {{w|Amphicat}} that is stored in the trailer portion. The seats are scaled to allow Roller to carry ''[[Diaclone]]'' figures, due to its use in the prior toyline. The [[trailer]]/[[Combat Deck (G1)|Combat Deck]] features a spring-loaded device that is capable of launching Roller out of the combat deck. Roller has a hole on top to hold the included oil pump or Optimus's gun. As a result of the original Optimus Prime's production variants (prior to rerelease), Roller was alternatively molded in silver plastic (the trailer's exterior color), or in various shades of blue, indigo and purple (mold colors of the corresponding Optimus's fists/legs/Combat Deck unit).
: As an homage to the silver Roller pictured in the G1 cartoon, some 2000s re-issues of Optimus Prime/Convoy have included Roller molded in that Prime's blue color, only ''painted'' silver. (Only the New Year Special and 25th Anniversary Rollers have been left blue, and unpainted.)

==Notes==
*Optimus Prime's original character description, as seen in the ''[[The Transformers Universe (Marvel)|Transformers Universe]]'' profile comic, names the robot module "Optimus" and the drone module "Prime", noting that the Prime module is also known as Roller. In practice, this nomenclature is never used. The robot module is always treated as if named "Optimus Prime", with "Prime" even being his most common nickname.
*A reference to this "Prime module" is retained in ''Universe''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[Powermaster]] Optimus Prime profile, so the little guy must still be around, despite not being included with the Powermaster toy.
*Early [[:File:EarlyPMPrime3.jpg|concept drawings]] for Powermaster Prime, as seen in ''[[Transformers Generations (guidebook)|Transformers Generations]]'', makes him a [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster]]/Powermaster, with a four-wheeled Roller forming the head.
*When the Powermaster Optimus Prime toy was released, it did not include Roller. Despite this, the [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|Marvel comic]] and other contemporary fiction still presented Roller as his familiar cart-shaped self in Prime's trailer.<ref>[http://www.ntfa.net/universe/english/index.php?act=view&char=Optimus_Prime_PM Powermaster Optimus Prime's ''Universe'' bio]</ref> When the toy was rereleased in 2003 as part of the ''Commemorative Series'', it included [[Apex Bomber]] (renamed from [[Godbomber]]), who is described on package as a "roller drone".
*Roller is simply referred to as "scout car" on the back of the packaging of Optimus Prime's ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' toy. While the [[bio]] featured on the North American packaging of the toy refers to him as "Roller, the Autobot scout car", the bio featured on the back of his [[multilingual packaging|multilingual]] ''European'' packaging omits the name "Roller" and explicitly capitalizes him as "Scout Car". This is subsequently repeated in a profile featured in [[War Without End (issue)|issue #1]] of the [[Transformers: Generation 2 (Fleetway)|UK ''Generation 2'' comic]].
*Roller was supposed to have a minor role in [[Ginrai (human)|Ginrai]]'s ''[[Transformers: Alternators#Binaltech|Binaltech]]'' toy bio (written by [[Hirofumi Ichikawa]]), but the toy was ultimately used as [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys|Optimus Prime]] and so the bio went unused. In this storyline, a new Dodge Ram Binaltech body was built for Roller, but was instead possessed by Ginrai as he travelled through time to save his own future.
*The [[#Generations|''Thrilling 30'' toy]] of Roller has a [[robot mode]] based on [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|''Hunt for the Decepticons'']] [[Breacher (TF 2010)#Toys|Breacher]], while his [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] is based on an APC vehicle accessory that was originally going to come with ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)|Prime]]'' [[Optimus Maximus (Prime)#Toys|Optimus Maximus]].<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/96686-generations-legends-targetmaster-moulds/#entry2423893 Kyde's response on an Allspark Forums thread about the ''Thrilling 30'' Legends partners]</ref>
*The 2005 IDW continuity also includes another character named "[[Roller (IDW)|Roller]]". His relation to Optimus Prime's Roller [[authorial intent|was explained]] by [[James Roberts]] as the drone being named after Optimus's old friend.<ref>[http://theunderbase.libsyn.com/the-underbase-deconstructs-shadowplay "The Underbase Podcast Deconstructs Shadowplay"], 39:43 - 41:54</ref>

{{toydesigner|[[Kōjin Ōno]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Jeffrey Mangiat]] (packaging artist)}}

: Released in the first year of ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|The Transformers]]'', Skywarp transforms into an {{w|F-15 Eagle}} fighter jet, by a process which essentially involves removing and reattaching most of his plane parts. Though it is possible to do so without removing all of them, this rather piecemeal design and the fact that neither mode uses all his parts means it can be quite difficult to find a complete original Skywarp on the secondary market. He began life as a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "Jet Robo", but unlike team-mates [[Starscream (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Starscream]] and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Thundercracker]], with whom he shares his mold, his distinctive black-and-purple deco did ''not'' originate in that line.

: Skywarp is armed with a pair of missile launchers that mount on his arms in robot mode, and under his wings in jet mode, with a pair of specialized projectiles for each. In jet mode, two short rockets are fitted into the launchers to make them resemble the drop tanks a real F-15 carries, while in robot mode, they are replaced with the long barrels of Skywarp's machine guns. The original ''Diaclone'' version of the mold featured spring-loaded firing mechanisms in these launchers; while this feature was removed for the [[Hasbro]] release of the toy, it was left intact for the [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] version, and all subsequent reissues.

: While the earliest releases of Skywarp were basically identical to the ''Diaclone'' mold, some small modifications were soon made to the figure which became the standard for all subsequent reissues of the mold. These included the hollowing out of the inner edges of his wings and the tips of his tail-wings, the lengthening of the pegs on his wings to make them fit more securely, and the addition of extra clips on the inner sides of his fist-gauntlets, allowing them to grip his arms better. Like all his 1984 brethren, Skywarp gained a factory-applied [[rubsign]] in 1985, which was added to the left side of his fuselage.

: Presumably by mistake, the stats on Skywarp, Starscream and Thundercracker's [[Tech Spec]]s were switched around. Skywarp's box was given Starscream's numbers, giving him a high intelligence and rank that stood in contrast to the bio printed next to them.

: Early Hasbro stock photos of Skywarp used for his [[instructions]], his packaging and the 1984 pack-in [[catalog]] (right) show him with a purple plastic nosecone. This was changed to a soft, black rubber nosecone when the toy was actually released. The same stock photos also show him with purple launchers with black triggers and muzzle rings, black feet, black shins, black outer arm panels, purple horizontal stabilizers, and both sets of missiles in purple rather than black. These stock photos were also later used to promote Takara's 2001 reissue (see below).

: The [http://tfarchive.com/toys/articles/toypics/mex_skywarp.jpg Mexican version] by [[IGA|Plasticos IGA]] retained the purple plastic nosecone, which was made out of solid plastic in this version (and had a slightly rounded off tip). Additionally, the front landing gear was made out of plastic as opposed to the [[die-cast]] metal version found on the Hasbro release.

: The Italian release of Skywarp (as "Corvo") by [[GiG]] put him in a generic "Distructor Planes" box, featuring names and tech specs for all three planes in the assortment.

: This mold was [[redeco]]ed into [[Sunstorm (G1)#Toys|Sunstorm]] and retooled to make [[Dirge (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Dirge]], [[Ramjet (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Ramjet]], and [[Thrust (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Thrust]].

: Sharing a mold once again with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|Thundercracker]], Skywarp transforms into a white {{w|Rafale|Dassault Rafale}} fighter jet with spring-loaded one-step transformation from jet to robot. The two halves of his rifle store in his lower legs. Like all ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' toys, Skywarp was an [[exclusive]] to [[KB Toys]] stores and related stores like Toy Liquidators.

: This toy is [[gang-molding|gang-molded]] with the other three Basic molds in the line. Specifically, his head and inner robot parts share plastic with [[Hubcap (MW)#Toys|Hubcap]], and his jet parts share plastic with [[Mirage (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|Mirage]], plus he shares the pearlescent-gray canopy plastic with, well, everyone.

: Curiously, Skywarp is the only Basic Decepticon to have a Decepticon symbol on him... and it's the ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' Decepticon symbol at that. Which is appropriate, given this mold was originally developed for ''Generation 2'' as [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Thundercracker]].

: The toy was [[Repurposing|repurposed]] as the [[Skywarp drone]]s.

:The original Skywarp toy was reissued for the first time in 2001 as part of Takara's small "[[The Transformers: Collector's Edition|Collector's Edition]]" series, which made several Generation 1 toys available as convention [[exclusive]]s. Sold in new open-faced packaging with no notable changes from the original figure, Skywarp was an exclusive at the Japanese science fiction convention "Super Festival 21", available only in a set with Thundercracker and limited to 1000 pieces. The pair are often mistakenly identified as [[e-HOBBY]] exclusives.

:The original Skywarp toy was made available again as part of Hasbro's line of [[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]] reissues. Released in the fourth wave of the series, it featured functional missile launchers for the first time on a Hasbro version of the toy, but because the launchers now worked, both sets of missiles had to be lengthened [[for safety reasons]]. His machine guns didn't turn out ''too'' bad; the missiles didn't fare so well. Rather than correct the erroneous Tech Spec numbers from Skywarp's original release, this reissue retained them and instead features a slightly re-written bio to remove the contradictions.

:''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Jetstorm (BM)|Jetstorm]] in his Generation 1 colors. He transforms into a Cybertronic fighter jet, armed with two spring-loaded projectile launchers that can fire orange "energon" bolts. These launchers end up in his arms in robot mode. He has a third robot mode that collapses the legs around the cockpit (oh hush), with flip-out panels revealing an extra pair of thrusters. His [[spark crystal]] is revealed by flipping the purple hatch on his back. The crystal is molded with the ''[[Dinobot (BM)|Dinobots]]'' design (by that point this was the only style being manufactured anymore) with a Decepticon [[insignia]] [[tampograph]]ed on top of it, oddly facing the opposite direction from the design molded into the crystal.

:Although most previous versions of the mold have the wingtips swept forward in vehicle mode, Skywarp was packaged and depicted in his instructions with the wingtips swept back. His fictional appearances, however, use the conventional arrangement shown here.

:Skywarp was also used to make ''Beast Machines'' [[Aero Drone|Sonic Attack Jet]], ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Storm Jet (RID)|Storm Jet]], and ''Robots in Disguise'' [[Jhiaxus (RID)|Jhiaxus]].

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'' product, Skywarp is, of course, a redeco of this line's Starscream. Like all toys in the series, he is a tiny, simplified version of the original Generation 1 toy, transforming into an F-15 fighter jet, with most of the accessories from the original toy faithfully translated save for his machine guns. As with all previous waves of ''Smallest Transforming Transformers'', these figures were sold [[blindpacking|blindpacked]], with Skywarp as one of the wave's two rare [[chase figure]]s

: This mold was redecoed into ''Smallest Transforming'' Thundercracker, and retooled to make Thrust.

: ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Robotmasters|Starscream]] from the same series, a re-imagining of the original Generation 1 figure, retaining its basic [[Transformation|transformation scheme]], but designed to be closer to the animation model, with greater articulation and integrated parts that do not require detachment during transformation. The only pieces that now need to be removed are Skywarp's rifles, which move from his wings to his arms. He has three peg-holes on each arm, allowing the rifles to be mounted on his shoulders, on his forearms, or in his fists. These holes are also designed to accommodate the generic spring-loaded missile launcher weapon included with ''Robotmasters'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Robotmasters|G1 Convoy]], [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys#Robotmasters|Beast Convoy]] and [[Megatron (BW)/toys#Robotmasters|Beast Megatron]].

: Skywarp also came with two "missile pods" based on weapons Starscream used but once, in the Generation 1 cartoon episode "[[Fire on the Mountain (episode)|Fire on the Mountain]]". These chromed accessories plug into the square holes in his chest, and feature opening covers that reveal (non-firing) missiles within.

: He was available only in a two-pack with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Robotmasters|Thundercracker]], which also came with a Decepticon sigil pin. This set was the very last product released in the ''Robotmasters'' line, and wasn't even strictly sold in a box from that series; instead, it used an [[e-HOBBY]] Generation 1 reissue box, with a small ''Robotmasters'' sticker in the corner tab noting its origin from the front.

*'''Ultra Magnus vs Skywarp: Battle For Autobot City''' (Multi-pack, 2006)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right missile launchers, 2 missiles

: ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]'' Skywarp is a redeco and slight retool of ''Classics'' Deluxe Class [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Classics|Starscream]], transforming into an [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes|F-15 Eagle fighter jet]], though with a canopy like that of an [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes|F-14 Tomcat]]. Unlike previous (and future) figures, the shade of purple used for this figure has a more reddish tint to it. He comes with a pair of spring-loaded missile launchers that can be mounted on his biceps or used as hand-held weapons in robot mode and can attach under his wings in vehicle mode. As with most ''Classics'' toys, he also features a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]].

: Skywarp was slightly [[retool]]ed from the earlier Starscream figures. The retool is present in the jet intake area. The slope of his shoulders was decreased from Starscream's, and a fifth rectangle was added to the vertical area. This retooled version was used for all subsequent releases of the mold, and was also used as a [[Variant#Running change|running change]] on Starscream.

: Skywarp was only available as part of a two-pack with [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Classics|Ultra Magnus]] [[exclusive]] to [[Target]] in the United States. The set's price was $19.99, despite including both a Voyager Class and Deluxe Class mold in it, which would be approximately $30 worth of toys if they had been sold separately. The pack was also available in Woolworth stores throughout the United Kingdom.

: [[Stock photography]] of ''Classics'' Skywarp showed [[:File:Classics Skywarp toy.jpg|a more detailed color scheme]] than the actual released figure. Much like ''Classics'' Ultra Magnus, the changes were most likely due to an overabundance of [[paint operation]]s. This more detailed version was shown at [[BotCon 2006]], and at least one sample found its way to a collector's hands. The sample also used the original Starscream mold, and not the retooled version mentioned above.

**''Accessories:'' 2 "Machine Guns", 2 AIM missile racks, [[Doctor Arkeville#MP6|Doctor Arkeville]] pilot, Megatron Gun clasp, display stand

: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Skywarp was released in Japan in September of 2007. He is a redeco of the ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|MP-3 Starscream]] mold in black, gray, silver, and purple, though the purple and silver are more minimal than usual. Skywarp is able to switch between a minimally retooled stoic face and a new snarly face, retooled from Starscream's previous smirk. The tiny [[Doctor Arkeville]] [[Slug figure|pilot figurine]] (this time molded black) is also included, as well as a clasp for jet mode Skywarp to hold the gun mode Megatron that came with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#20th Anniversary/Masterpiece|Masterpiece MP-1 Convoy/20th Anniversary Optimus Prime]].

[[File:MPSkywarp stickers.jpg|upright=1.1|left|thumb|He ''admits'' to being Cyclonus? Haha, what a prankster!]]
: The sticker sheet includes Skywarp-esque stripes, as well as several whimsical squadron markings.

:The second pressing of ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp (released in October 2008) features an assembly error: his left and right pectorals are flipped. This misassembly does not affect transformation at all, and is really only noticeable when compared to prior ''Masterpiece'' Seekers. The September 2007 pressing of ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp is assembled correctly. ''Masterpiece'' Thundercracker is misassembled as well.

:It is a common misconception that the stoic face on Takara's ''Masterpiece'' Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker are the same, when all of them are in fact different sculpts.

:This mold was later used for the ''Masterpiece'' version of [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|Thundercracker]]. It was also redecoed and retooled to create the eleventh ''Masterpiece'' figure, [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP11|Starscream]].

**''ID number:'' '''MP-11SW'''
**''Accessories:'' [[Megatron (G1)/toys#MP11SW|Megatron Gun]], [[Doctor Arkeville#MP11SW|Doctor Arkeville]] pilot

:A redeco of the newer ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP11|MP-11 Starscream]] mold, Skywarp features some extensive retooling to wind the ''Masterpiece'' Seeker design back into the more Generation 1-accurate look, with most of the robot mode being newly tooled parts, including chunkier legs that now incorporate his tail-fins, [[retool]]ed shoulders and wingtips that no longer curve into one another, a new head (with collapsible head fins), new heel spurs that flip out for added support in robot mode, and re-engineered Machine Guns attached to extending armatures that mean they no longer have to be [[Partformer|removed]] for transformation.

:The figure features flip-up missile racks built into his pectorals. He comes with the original version of the [[Megatron (G1)/toys#20th Anniversary/Masterpiece|Megatron gun]] that first came with ''Masterpiece'' [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#20th Anniversary/Masterpiece|MP-1 Convoy]]. He also comes with a [[Doctor Arkeville#MP11SW|Doctor Arkeville]] pilot figure identical to the previous MP-6 release.

:Skywarp's deco is heavily based on his cartoon appearance and features the rarely reproduced in toy form entirely purple shoulders and arm cannons. Despite the focus on cartoon accuracy in his deco, he carries over the striping on his forearms, shoulders, and pectorals similar to his original MP-6 Masterpiece release.

:As a redeco of the MP-11 release, Skywarp is ''likely'' to be plagued with the same quality control issues.

:Skywarp was only released in China via Hasbro Asia under the TakaraTomy label; marking the second time an original TakaraTomy Masterpiece toy wasn't released for the Japanese market ([[Megatron (G1)/toys#MP5G|''Masterpiece'' Megatron Gold Version]] was the first).

:On [[November 30]], [[2016]] MP-11SW Skywarp was released in Japan for the first time as a [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive. There are notable differences between this release and the original almost two years prior. The shade of purple used on the later release is more warm and less cool in tone. His biceps and knee flaps are now molded in black plastic rather than in purple plastic painted a glossy black. The inner portion of his upper chest is no longer painted silver mold molded in silver plastic. Many of the paint operations are also slightly different in color from the earlier Hasbro Asia release. Hasbro Asia also re-released the figure to coincide with the Japanese release.

:When purchased from a seller supplied by Hasbro Asia, Skywarp comes with a collector coin, mounted on a card resembling his wings, complete with his signature wing stripes. The coin was reissued in 2016, without change, alongside the figure.

:A redeco of ''Masterpiece'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP52|Starscream Ver. 2.0]], the second version of ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp was first announced by TakaraTomy as part of a competition—those who purchase all three Ver.2.0 Seekers will receive an add-on kit for [[Starscream (G1)/toys#MP52|Starscream]]; giving him his iconic crown and cape from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''. The toy's stock photography was unveiled a few months after the competition was announced.

:Skywarp comes with many accessories, including 3 alternate faces, 5 effect parts, a stand for his jet mode, a pair of null rays, and a non-transforming figure of [[Megatron (G1)/toys#MP52Plus|Megatron]] in his gun mode. His jet mode can half-transform into a Gerwalk-styled "Alternate Transformation" which is based on the episode ''[[Dinobot Island, Part 2]]'', as seen in the figure's stock photography. Skywarp is colored in a cartoon-accurate lilac color, as opposed to the neon purple found on most of his toy releases.

:Like Thundercracker, Skywarp was released as a TakaraTomy Mall exclusive to Japan.

: ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' Skywarp is a [[Toy Hobby Market]] exclusive redeco of ''Henkei! Henkei!'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#Henkei! Henkei!|Starscream]]. Skywarp and his fellow [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]] [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Henkei! Henkei!|Thundercracker]] were opened for pre-order on [[May 22]] through [[June 20]], and mailed out in September 2008.

:Soon after release, there were numerous complaints from both Japanese and foreign collectors about the poor quality control for both Thundercracker and Skywarp. Skywarp's most common fault was missing paint for one of his shoulders. Some reported both toys suffering misassembly issues such as having two left or two right thighs.

:Several minor changes were made to this mold for this release. The holes for his missile launchers in his arms were widened, as were the launcher's insertion pegs. The wing's missile launcher insertion points were lengthened and are now curved at the end. The last rectangle on his air intakes was further modified from the [[Transformers: Classics|Classics]] version, this time the bottom most rectangle goes completely across the air intake's surface rather than just the center. ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Thundercracker and ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 franchise)|Universe]]'' Starscream also saw most of these changes.

*'''Masterpiece Skywarp''' (2009)
**''Accessories:'' 2 "Machine Guns", 2 missile racks, Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine, gun clip, two-piece display stand

: A [[Walmart]] exclusive redeco of the original ''Masterpiece'' Starscream mold. Just like Starscream, Skywarp is able to switch between two different faces. This release uses the Starscream's stoic and smirking alternate faces rather than the Takara ''Masterpiece'' Skywarp's newly-tooled stoic and snarling faces. Hasbro designer [[Joe Kyde]] felt the alternate snarling face did not fit Skywarp's prankster personality, so he went with the Starscream smirk face instead when designing the deco for Hasbro's release. As a result of gang molding, Skywarp also uses Starscream's stoic face, the decision being the difference between Skywarp and Starscream's stoic face was negligible enough not to make a significant difference. The toy also features a more G1 toy styled deco rather than cartoon-based, particularly in the yellow eye color and wing stripes. His purple more closely matches that of the original toy than the purple used on the Takara version, and features a lighter flat black, like the original toy, instead of Takara's darker glossy black. The Hasbro version replaces some of the dark gray of the Takara version with a dark silver, removes the arm and chest striping, but adds additional red detailing, while removing some as well. Much like Hasbro's Starscream, he does not feature any of the warning or slogan tampographs, but features tampographed striping, Decepticon symbols, and some additional paint details not present on the Takara version. The nosecone features black paint over purple plastic, allowing for easy customization of "Mexican Masterpiece Skywarp".
: The tiny Doctor Arkeville pilot figurine (molded in black with no paint applications) is also included, as well as a clasp for jet mode Skywarp to hold the gun mode Megatron that came with ''Masterpiece'' Convoy/20th Anniversary Optimus Prime and a stand (featuring Skywarp's name) with a support beam for jet or robot mode.
: Masterpiece Skywarp was also available as an Argos exclusive in the [[United Kingdom]].

Like the other toys in the line, he features [[die-cast]] metal parts and rubber tires, as well as an opening hood, trunk and doors. This is also currently the only ''Alternity'' mold to feature [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|a fake kibble chest]].

:In car mode, small wings are ''supposed to'' be able to flip out from under Skywarp's rear wheels, giving him the appearance of a flying car. Unfortunately, this [[gimmick]] suffers from a rather nasty [[design flaw]]: there is simply not enough clearance under the car for the wheels to be able to pass and hinge through, and attempting to do so will result in the plastic reinforcement struts underneath ''deforming the rims and chipping the tires''. His door panels also tend to detach from their [[ball joint]]s ''very easily''.

: This version of Skywarp has much more extensive, toy-based [[tampograph]]s than his prior version. Oddly, his limbs, wings and blasters are different shades of purple plastic, rather than a more accurate-to-anything black plastic with purple detailing.

:He was only available in a [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2014 [[exclusive]] pack of 30 Kreons dubbed the "[[Kreon Class of 1984]]". Remaining stock was to be sold at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] online, only there ''was'' no remaining stock after the show.

: This version of Skywarp is heavily based on his cartoon appearance. He features a glossy black, a medium warm purple, shiny metallic purple paint on most of his purple plastic, and an amber cockpit. Paint operations found on the Henkei! Henkei! release were shuffled around for the sake of cartoon accuracy, up to and including purple shoulders.
: Original photos of Skywarp showed him with show-accurate all purple arm cannons, but due to gang molding (and lack of additional paint operations) only the upper most portion of his arm cannons ended up purple.

*'''Skywarp''' (Deluxe Class, 2014)
**''Series / Number'': '''02 / #012'''
**''Accessories'': Two assault cannons, tail-fin

:Part of the eighth wave of [[2012]]-onwards ''Generations'' Deluxe Class toys, ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' Skywarp is a redeco of ''Generations: [[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|Fall of Cybertron]]'' [[Starscream (WFC)/toys#Generations|Starscream]], and transforms into a Cybertronian jet fighter. He comes with two spinning, triple-barreled cannons which can combine to form a larger hand-held weapon that is geared to spin its two triple-barrels together, and resembles the [[Neutron assault rifle]] from ''Fall of Cybertron''. Each of the weapon halves features two [[5 mm post]]s, as well as a peg-hole on their hollow sides, while the combined form features another peg-hole at the top, but makes the peg-holes on the hollow sides inaccessible. Skywarp features numerous 5 mm peg-holes, such as his hands, forearms, lower legs, and wing undersides.

:Skywarp's tail-fin is attached via a 5mm post on its underside, and can be detached to reveal three additional peg-holes, with two of these peg-holes being just the right distance to accommodate the combined assault cannons/rifle, with the tail-fin pegging on the rifle's top peg-hole. This allows the weapon to mount on top of the vehicle mode, and store on his back in robot mode.

:Skywarp is minimally mis-transformed in-package: his jet mode nosecone is extended, rather than folded in as it should be in robot mode. He comes packaged with a copy of [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s [[Winners & Losers: Dark Cybertron Chapter 3|''Robots in Disguise'' #23]].

:Despite using a mold matching [[Skywarp (WFC)|Skywarp]]'s appearance in ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (franchise)|War for Cybertron]]'', this toy ''technically'' represents G1 Skywarp, thanks to his [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] pack-in fiction. Consequently, the toy is listed in the former's page as a [[repurposing]]. This mold was also used for TakaraTomy's ''Fall of Cybertron'' Skywarp, itself repurposed as ''Cloud'' [[Hellwarp|Skywarp]], and as ''Generations Thrilling 30'' [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Thrilling 30|Thundercracker]].

Based on a [[Guido Guidi]] [[Seeker (body-type)|seeker]] concept for the [[The Transformers (IDW)|first IDW ongoing series]], he transforms from a hybrid F-15/F-22 style jet. He features a fold out front landing gear, [[5 mm post|5 mm-compatible]] hands, and back/wings, and has [[C joint|3 mm-compatible]] upper arm ports. He comes with two removable cannons that have [[5 mm post#Multiple posts and double posting|both 5 mm and 3 mm pegs]]. As with Thundercracker his current stock photo is mistransformed: his wing assembly has not been folded up to the body.

He transforms from a robot into a jet fighter, and includes a missile launcher and four limb-mounted weapons, plus two guns based on the traditional Seeker arm rifles. He also features a faux cockpit. Skywarp does not include the original Jetfire mold's "Turbo Thruster" booster pack accessory, nor does he include Starscream's crown, but is still compatible with both.

: Skywarp unfortunately became a massive shelfwarmer, prominently seen at U.S. Target stores in bulk among the ''Titans Return'' toyline.

Aside from that, the figure's deco is mostly identical to [[#Chronicle|the ''Chronicle EZ Collection'' figure]] listed above, although the purple [[paint operation]]s sport a more blue hue, the purple paint operations on his shins are omitted entirely, and the [[tampograph]]ed Decepticon insignias on the wings are purple with silver outlines rather than completely silver.<ref name="2014legion">[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-feedback/1040836-classic-legion-skywarp.html Review of 2014 Legion Class Skywarp] at TFW2005, including a comparison with ''EZ Collection'' Skywarp.</ref>

:Skywarp comes in packaging that is based on the packaging design for the concurrently released ''Combiner Wars''-era ''Generations'' figures, but replaces the name ''Generations'' with "Authentic Transformers". Since Skywarp and his [[wave]]-mates ship with three figures previously released under what we consider a generic [[Transformers (2014 toyline)|''Transformers'' (2014) toy line]], all of them now in the new packaging style, we consider Skywarp to be part of that line as well.

:This ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' four-pack version of Skywarp is a retool of Voyager Class [[Starscream (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Starscream]] from the same line with a new slightly sneering face, transforming from a heavily Generation 1-inspired robot to a Cybertronian "tetrajet" based on the [[Seeker (body-type)|Seekers]]' appearance in "[[More than Meets the Eye, Part 1]]" and back; although the jet mode has the robot legs sticking out from the undercarriage. In an unusual move, Skywarp's plastic is molded in a light charcoal gray rather than his traditional black. He includes two "HPI Null-Ray Laser Launchers," which can mount on his upper arms, or under the wings in jet mode, and three Battle Master figures, Fracas, Shrute, and Terror-Daxtyl, respectively redecoed from [[Firebolt (G1)#War for Cybertron: Siege|Firedrive]], [[Aimless#War for Cybertron: Siege|Aimless]], and [[Pteraxadon#Toys|Pteraxadon]], each with their respective Fire Blasts.

:This set was an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive for North America, which also labelled the set as "Final Strike Figure Series: Part 2", and a [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive in Japan.

:''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'' Skywarp is a [[redeco]] and very slight [[retool]]ing of Voyager Class [[Starscream (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Starscream]] from the same line, transforming into an F-15 jet based on his traditional alternate mode, and features a pair of G1-accurate null-rays in cartoon-accurate purple. His design and transformation scheme is heavily based on his [[#Classics|2006 ''Classics'' figure]] while adding points of articulation the earlier figure did not have such as pivoting ankles, a more expressive ball-jointed head, and hinges that allow the wings to fold backward in robot mode. He uses Starscream's pre-tooled alternate head. His head and chest are susceptible to paint chipping due to the transformation scheme. While the null-rays can be wielded by his pair of hands, it's almost impossible for him to properly hold them due to the size of his forearms.

: Skywarp was packaged with [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Thundercracker]] as part of a ''Cybertronian Villains'' set exclusive to [[Target]] in the United States, and [[Toys"R"Us]] in Canada. It was also available at general retail in Hong Kong. In Japan, the set was released as a [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive.

:Like many of the toys since the ''War for Cybertron trilogy'' line, Skywarp suffers from a case of [[photodegradation]], as his unpaintable purple pieces discolors to a maroon shade.

:Like all ''Earthrise'' toys, the inside of the back of the Seeker two-pack package includes an exclusive clip-and-save piece of a larger star map. Also in the box is a thin red piece of transparent plastic with which to read the star map. The two-pack contains the unlabelled location of [[Quintessa (planet)|Quintessa]].

:Like all other uses of the mold, Skywarp has a missing molded panel-line detail on the right wing hinge that is supposed to curve in towards the body of the jet. The reason for this missing detail is likely due to it missing from the metal mold itself.

:*''Accessory'': "Energon Warp Fork"
{{toydesigner|[[Mark Maher]] (Hasbro)|[[Emiliano Santalucia]] (concept artist)}}

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy]]'' Core Class toys, Skywarp is a redeco of ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' [[Starscream (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Starscream]]. Frankly, we're surprised he didn't come ''sooner''.

: A roughly Legends-sized toy that can interact with Titan Class figures, ''Legacy'' Skywarp's sculpting is heavily inspired by his larger ''Earthrise'' counterpart, though featuring a black pelvis instead of a silver one. Instead of coming with a redeco of Starscream's Null Ray accessories, Skywarp comes with a... some kind of a tuning fork-like weapon called the "Energon Warp Fork", which can be plugged into the underside of his nose cone while in vehicle mode.

: Skywarp retains the hexagonal peg holes molded into Starscream's shoulders, so the figure can still support Starscream's Null Ray ''arm''aments. However, the Null Rays are prone to popping off when inserted into the peg holes due to their hexagonal shape. The stock render seen in the character bio (unlocked by scanning the QR code) also depicts him with both the Null Rays and the Warp Fork, with the former being removed for budget reasons. It should be noted that the Warp Fork was likely meant to have extra grey paint operations on the red paint details.

: Skywarp's head is molded in black, greatly reducing the risk of paint chipping and scratching suffered from ''Kingdom'' Starscream.

: As seen on ''Kingdom'' [[Hot_Rod_(G1)/toys#K43|Hot Rod's]] card illustration and Skywarp's instructions, the Energon Warp Fork is one of the three components of a combined sword. The horizontal 3mm post on the fork also prevents it from being adequately positioned when attached. This can be amended by slightly trimming off the post, though this method prevents the accessory from attaching to Skywarp's nose cone.

: This mold was also redecoed into Core Class [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Legacy|Thundercracker]].

Unlike the ''Vintage G1'' release, however, ''Retro'' Skywarp has been redecoed to match his appearance in the original ''Transformers'' animated series, more specifically ''The Transformers: The Movie''.

Said gun splits at the handle to fit in the [[retool]]ed fists, and can be "stored" underneath Skywarp's jet mode by slotting a squared bracket on the handle into one of the square holes in his chest.

*'''Destron Hero Collection 22''' (multi-pack, 1986)

:Skywarp was among the many characters rendered by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] as part of their series of 1.5" ''keshigomu'' figurines. Like all the Decepticons in the series, Skywarp was molded in soft purple rubber, and featured a number sculpted into his back that was the sum total of his [[Tech Spec]]s, for use in the various games that could be played with the figurines. He is, surprisingly enough, ''not'' identical to either Starscream or Thundercracker: the stance of his legs and the position of his Decepticon symbols differ, but he is, of course, most prominently distinguished by his raised arms.

:Skywarp was available as part of a 22-piece box set of Decepticon figures, in a peach coloration randomly packed in several box sets and with other products produced by Takara subsidiary [[Seven]], and in a wide variety of colours in "gachapon" capsule machines.

*'''Skywarp''' (1987)
**''Decoy number:'' '''33'''

: The Skywarp figurine was later brought over to [[Hasbro]] markets as part of the [[Decoy]] promotion, largely identical to the Japanese release except for the fact that the number on his back was replaced with a simple "checklist" number (33, in Skywarp's case). Like all Decepticon Decoys, he was a randomly-chosen pack-in available with the carded [[Throttlebot]]s, [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]], [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobots]] and [[Technobot (G1)|Technobots]], and was, very early on in the promotion, available in an alternate red coloration that was only packed in with the Throttlebots. Unsurprisingly, this red figurine is much rarer.

: The original Skywarp figurine was re-released again in this six-pack of figures available exclusively at [[OTFCC 2003]]. He came packaged with ''Heroes of Cybertron'' versions of [[Starscream (G1)/merchandise#Heroes of Cybertron|Starscream]], [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Heroes of Cybertron|Thundercracker]], and three [[Air Warrior#Heroes of Cybertron|Air Warriors]].

: While the three named Seekers in the set were originally intended to have a sparkly paint job to differentiate them from the normal retail versions, that ended up not happening and they ended up basically the same.

[[File:OTFCCSkywarp.jpg|thumb|Doesn't so much teleport as not exist in the first place.]]
*'''Skywarp''' (2004, unreleased)

: A redeco of ''Mega Super Figure Collection'' G1 Starscream (minus the extra coronation accessories), Skywarp was to be among the first of the fan club exclusives offered by [[BotCon#BotCon history|OTFCC]] as well as the first in their ''Legends of Cybertron'' line. The figure was delayed and never saw a full release due to [[3H Productions|3H Enterprises]] losing the license to run the official Transformers fan club. At least a couple of sample versions were produced, of those most (but not all) had the open-palm hands and the hand wielding Megatron in gun mode painted blue rather than the correct purple.

He can stand normally or use a stand to take on a "hovering" pose. Skywarp was limited to 300 pieces, and sculpted by [[3L Creation Group]] from a design by [[George Tremarco]].

*'''Skywarp''' (Booster, <s>2007</s>)

: Skywarp was among the planned ''Transformers [[Attacktix]]'' game pieces that were showed at some conventions, but went unreleased as the line was canceled. He was to be a [[retool]] of sorts of the similarly unreleased ''[[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|Energon]]'' [[Starscream (Armada)|Starscream]], using the same weapon and base but a brand new jet mold. Skywarp would've been able to detach from his base and fly on a string, enabling him to get better shots at opposing pieces. Any other details about his role in the game are unknown.

:Skywarp was one of the chase figures in the second wave of 3-inch tall [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] vinyl figurines produced by [[The Loyal Subjects]]. Featuring eight ball-jointed points of articulation. Unlike the other [[1984]] style Seekers, a Skywarp is not a redeco of the Starscream and Thundercracker figurine from the first wave (who were later redecoed to create the [[Rainmaker]] trio and [[Sunstorm (G1)|Sunstorm]]), but an all new mold with different construction and parts than his predecessors. He is slightly larger than the other '84 Seekers and features more moving parts. He does share some parts with the simultaneously released [[Ramjet (G1)/toys|Ramjet]], [[Thrust (G1)/toys|Thrust]], and fellow chase figure [[Dirge (G1)/toys|Dirge]]. For every 96 figures from wave 2 of The Loyal Subjects, there is 1 Skywarp.

The null rays can be removed and wielded as guns, and he can also hold Megatron's gun.

:In order to get the figure looking like the promotional photos, required paint applications include coloring the screaming mouth, chest fans and panel lines, missile rack surrounds, null ray panel lines, and knee vents all in black. Eyes and cockpit come in translucent colored plastic and can also be painted to improve their look. Finally, the mini F15 jet comes as a single black piece and is missing all coloring.

**''Known designers:'' Kelvin Sau
**''Accessories:'' wing assembly, two null-ray cannons, more TBA
:A redeco of [[Threezero]]'s MDLX Starscream, Skywarp is an original design taking inspiration from the original cartoon but with the aesthetics in the vein of the live-action movies.

Like those lines, the figure is extremely well-articulated and detailed, features interchangeable hands and faces plus accessories. He features his ever-present null-ray cannons and two dagger-like blades.

:He and [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Threezero|Thundercracker]] were revealed in a [https://www.instagram.com/p/CuIrGnDSVoP/ teaser posted to Threezero's Instagram account] showcasing Starscream.

*'''Bishoujo Series Transformers Skywarp''' (July 2024)
**''Known designers:'' [[Shunya Yamashita]] (artist)

:''[[Kotobukiya]] [[Bishoujo Series]]'' Skywarp is a repaint and slight retool of [[Starscream (G1)/merchandise#Kotobukiya Bishoujo Series|Starscream]] from the same line of PVC figures. In addition to being recolored in Skywarp's usual black and purple, the statue has received some minor resculpts, tweaking the face slightly and filling in her navel so she appears to be wearing a black skintight suit beneath her clothing.

:Like Starscream, Skywarp is attached to a purple display base designed after the Decepticon insignia, but she does not include any alternate headpieces like her fellow seeker.
{{--}}

==Notes==
[[File:Skywarpatron.jpg|right|upright=0.9|thumb]]
*During the development of the [[Conehead]]s, [[Dirge (G1)/toys|Dirge]] was initially planned as new wing tooling attached to an unchanged Skywarp body. This plan lasted long enough to receive [[package art]], which was published decades later in ''[[Legacy: The Art of Transformers Packaging]]''.
*In a possible fit of madness, a triple changer was proposed that would switch between Skywarp (possibly mistaken for Starscream), [[Megatron (G1)/toys|Megatron]], and Skywarp's jet mode.
*In modern times, Skywarp is often the last of the three primary Decepticon Seekers to see the use of a toyline's respective Seeker mold. Consequently, his figures may become prominent [[shelfwarmer]]s at the tail end of a line's run, as notoriously seen worldwide with [[#CWLeader|''Combiner Wars'' Leader Class Skywarp]].
