I think it's still worth getting. Once it goes on sale it'll become a definite must have, and I'm pretty sure it'll fly off the shelves.
...Unless Hasbro is sitting on an insane amount of HA BBs, then it'll just clog the shelves and drop in price like a rock.
I can only speak for myself. I bought it, and it the best toy I've bough since the UM trailer from Fanprojects.

Re: Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Human Alliance Bumblebee Released in Canada
Personally I don't regret spending $50 for it. That being said I'm sure it will be pelentiful at the walmarts in a few weeks for at least $10 less.

No, it's really a brand new smaller-than-a-scout mold. Even Knockout is too big for the Sam figure that comes with BB, so it was to be smaller than a Scout.

Re: Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Human Alliance Bumblebee Released in Canada
I still vote we boycott HA figures at $50 to send the message that this is NOT an OK price point for HA nor for other related fan-targeted items.
If we snap up Purple TFA Shockwaves and HA Bumblebees at $50, we are sending the statistical message loud and clear that this is an OK price point for "slightly more than Voyager" TFs.
That is not a precedent I want to set.
Instead if most of us wait it out and leave them on the shelves, we might generate a sale and then we pounce on them at sale price ($40 or less). That message should be clear ro retailers and Hasbro Canada.
I'm also holding some hope that WalMart will price HA BB more aggressivly low. Don't forget he has a US MSRP of $34.99!

I actually scraped up the $50.00 and I gotta say it's Alt mode isn't super fantastic but the Robot mode is super detailed and tons of fun.
Like you said maybe you'll wait for a sale and end up missing this completely.
Or this may end up clogging the shelves like usual.

Re: Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Human Alliance Bumblebee Released in Canada
I picked it up at Zellers in Pickering, ON today... it's also 49.99... I think that's the MSRP from Hasbro, not particular from TRU or Zellers... I still haven't seen this item at any Wal-Mart yet... it could most likely be 49.92, and not 39.99 as most of you are expecting...

Re: Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Human Alliance Bumblebee Released in Canada
I just got the figure.....50 bux surely is pricy. But then it is the best movie Bumblebee you can get(i really like it with the flipping mask!!). I rather get this instead of the Ultimate Bumblebee seriously.
