Studio Series 86 Appreciation Thread

[Undead Scottsman]

An entry was found for "Gen Studio Series DLX WFC Bumblebee" which some are speculating will be a release of Netflix Bee, but I find that unlikely as I think they'd just call it '86 Bumblebee in that case. The other theory, however, seems even less likely: that Studio Series is going to expand to the War for Cybertron game designs, which would be weird as those games aren't even available for purchase anymore due to licensing issues.

Unless.. Microsoft is in the process of acquiring Activision, and they're hungry for content for Game Pass; it's entirely possible they're willing to work with Hasbro to get those games made available again, which I'd love. But I still think putting them in the "Studio Series" would be hella weird, especially when there's still a bunch of other characters they could mine from both the live action and animated films.

Gen Studio Series DLX WFC Bumblebee Listing Found

Time for yet another new 2023 listing from Jtprime17 and Walmart. This time we have an unexpected discovery - something called "Gen Studio Series DLX WFC Bumblebee". What this is, is at the moment a mystery, although JT hypothesizes it may be related to the High Moon video games or the Netflix...

EDIT: Also Studio Series TF3 Laserbeak is a pink Bumblebee, which I'm sure is going to disappoint some people.

Following our flow of reveals, now we can share for you what seems to be our first images of a new Transformers Studio Series Core Class Dark Of The Moon Laserbeak. This is a new Core Class Bumblebee mold which tries to recreate the brief scene in Dark Of The Moon where Laserbeak transforms into...

Pink Bumblebee Laserbeak was one of the creepier moments of that movie, but I will buy that figure on sight. The planet needs more pink Transformers that aren't Arcee.

 

[Sabrblade]

That's a very deep shade of pink compared to the Movie the Best version's more screen-accurate lighter pink.

Was looking forward to replacing Soundwave's mostly static Laserbeak, but EVIL PINK BUMBLEBEE TEA PARTY DISGUISE Laserbeak is a million times better!

I really want Studio Series to finish up Movieverse already. I mean I'm pretty sure we're like two or three good waves away from getting there, let's do that before turning this line into Legacy 2.

I dunno, seems like the studio series thread was a good spot for them.

Soundwave: "Laserbeak, eject!"
*Pink Bumblebee pops out of his chest*.
Soundwave: "Call 911..."

I've got the original:

Haven’t been on here in a long time

Pink Bumblebee Lazerbeak is amazing. I hope its less red in person.

 

[Haywire]

Unless there's some obvious molded Laserbeak detail, I'll likely repurpose it as a new character for my Core/Legends/Gobots collection.

Found it.

I hope we get him recolored back into Bumblebee at some point.

Apparently not...

(Yeah, I know.... I really don't expect Studio Series to finally give me the Marvel version. Still, I'll never not prefer these colors to the animation model)

With so many other cool things we've gotten over the years, I think Red Helmet Ratchet (on a good mold) is my TF white whale.

With how they're finally starting to give us multiple optional heads with some figures, they really ought to make a new Ratchet that comes with both a cartoon-accurate head (white helmet w/ black crest) and a Marvel-accurate head (red helmet w/ white crest).

And, please Hasbro, no more Prowl-colored heads (white helmet w/ red crest) for G1 Ratchet. Please.

While I'd certainly be pleased to have the option, the obsessive in me would never be able to ignore that Marvel Ratchet also has a white waist, vs. the cartoon red one.
