Notes

  • Bumblebee Rumble is an Interactive "Play-a-Sound" storybook published by Publications International, ltd., Lincolnwood, IL.
  • It is a retelling of part of the story of the 2007 movie, namely Bumblebee's battle with Barricade.
  • As the reader progresses through the story, they encounter various icons which indicate they are to press one of the buttons down the right hand side of the book, playing a sound effect.

Trivially Pointless Minutia

With those big soulless eyes, no wonder he's such a beloved children's icon.
  • Much like Milton's classic Paradise Lost, Bumblebee Rumble begins in medias res, starting out with Sam on a pink bicycle trying desperately to escape the Camaro that has been following him.
  • Barricade is described as being 16 feet tall; Shawn Currie seems to enjoy mentioning that particular fact.
  • Rather than an industrial zone seen in the movie, the action in this case takes place close to downtown.
  • Mikaela knocks Frenzy out...with her bare hands. Because reciprocal saws are for wimps.

Distribution

  • Transformers Play-a-Sound books were available in the US at Kohl's stores.
