Looks really good to me.

[GMfan]

I'm really looking forward to this...um...class? Looks like it'll be very promising.

[Pascal]

Guy said $30 each. Is that the price point for Ultras in the US?

[GMfan]

Yup, so they'll probably be $35-40 CDN. Pretty much the CDN price for a CDN Alternator + a GI Joe fig so it works I guess :P

[Beechy]

No pegs on BB's hood to lay Sam and Mikeala to lay on?

[crimbot]

Wow, they really nailed it. Good stuff! That is going to be an awesome toy.

It's too bad that the ultimate bumblebee couldn't have looked like that.

[Magnimus]

Human mini-cons are GO!

[jjwankenobi]

A definite buy for me.

Um, anyone interested in a loose mint Premium movie BB and loose mint Robo-Vision OP, both for $40???

Hope they make a "Human Alliance" Optimus with Peter Cullen action figure. That would rawk tha body that rawks the partaaay...

[BeeBoy29]

Preety spiffy stuff :D

[Razorwing]

we should call it the HA class. (for obvious reasons lol)

anywhoo, it looks good. will be getting it. Hopefully it comes out as Wave 1.

[Ultra Maverick]

sounds and looks amazing, a definite buy.

You have to figure they will be pairing a bot up with Lennox eventually....but who

[GMfan]

My guess is Ironhide

[jjwankenobi]

Yeah, my guess is Lennox with Ironhide and I think Epps and Sideswipe are already planned.

If they make a Barricade with Moustache Man hologram I'd be all over that too.

[ANDROID PRIME]

IMO TF2 ROTF HA BB looks sweet.

[Pascal]

You mean "IMO TF2 ROTF HA BB L00K5 5W33T! :)

[Team Jetfire]

Looks cool. This is just one step closer to the GI Joe Transformers Dream. :P

Now if only they would do this with Jetfire...

[jjwankenobi]

Whoa...that would be one honkin' huge HA Jetfire if his driver were in scale with the Sam and Epps figures we've seen so far.

I wonder if any of the Decepticons will get the HA treatment. I guess Starscream and Barricade would be the only possbile 'Cons with drivers made into figures, both of which would be The Moustached Hologram Man from TF1.

[DECEPTICON_BRAWL]

yup i'm sold on it.well i was sold on this since we first saw it.

[DECEPTICON_BRAWL]

well barricade could come with frenzy.

I'm not saying that it won't be huge, I'm just saying that I want it...:p

[Whisky Tango Foxtrot]

Dull surprise!

Looks neat, but not worth the price. Then again, imho anything above a Deluxe has to be something really special to be worth the insane prices they charge for the larger toys.

[jjwankenobi]

I'm not saying that it won't be huge, I'm just saying that I want it...:p

And I'm not saying that it being a huge toy would be a bad thing.

What I am saying is that I would want it too;)...

Quick, lets do an online petition!

They could even use this mold for it:

Ah yes...my childhood toy dreams are coming back from the 80's to taunt me.

Actually, the ROTF HA line reminds me of my coveted (and long lost) General Lee with Bo and Luke Duke action figures made by Mego.

Damn...if only I could travel back in time and tell myself to stop playing with my toys and safely store them for a rainy day then I'd be a frakkin' rich man now...

[Beechy]

Or a very sad man.....

Not sure what you mean here. Similarly priced and sized toys don't even transform and don't have half the features. You're getting a LOT of bang for the buck with Transformers.

[jjwankenobi]

Yeah...that'd probably mess you up if some older, fatter, balder version of you travelled back in time to tell you to stop playing with your toys.

Nonetheless ROTF HA-BB is my new General Lee!!!

LOL, I was just thinking about that while looking at the BB pics with Sammy boy :D

[C_Shewins]

The guy doesn't look like Sam. Sam looks weird...i think the figure from Indiania Jones looks better, but not sure if he will fit inside Bumblebee.

[Beechy]

There's only one way to find out!

[Vega-Starscream]

Must have for me but I was wondering, is HA Bumblebee will be the same scale as Alternators in car mode? or will there be a slight difference? he, and other HA will look perfect in the same display with my alternators if it was the case.

[J.Soundwave]

Let's hope for a Treebot with Miles from Movie 1!...No, but seriously...i'm going against the masses again with these things. Me no likey...

[Batman]

I agree with Pascal. Over the past few years especially, the quality, design, and complexity has really improved in all size classes and I think your money goes a long way.

[rhinoxmaximal]

I just saw some comparison shots at seibertron.com (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/revenge-of-the-fallen/bumblebee/1760/1/185/). Bumblebee is actually bigger than your average alternator but I'm still liking him.

[jjwankenobi]

I was at a couple local toy shops in my area (retail and specialty) and asked about the ROTF HA line. No one knew what I was talking about.

Anyone know when this line is supposed to hit the shelves?

[CobraCommander]

LOL... too bad it's not in GIJoe scale. I still want it though :)

[jjwankenobi]

Um...OK

Not quite an answer to my question but amusing nonetheless.

Anyone know release dates?

[Mumps]

Cheers, thanks.

Hopefully it'll be out just in time for Father's Day.

Now...how do I teach my 2 year old son to say "Human Alliance Bumblebee with Sam" with earnest so that my wife won't think I planted that info???
