I got Siege Shockwave on clearance for the price of a Voyager and felt he was worth about that much. If I see Springer marked down similarly, I'll go for him then, but otherwise I'll stick with the T30.

Give him two tiny replicas that he can hold as weapons. worked for Galvatron.
Maybe, or at least defend the land they taken as their own from all hostile forces, thou one has to wonder, why was Kup setting up the road block before Hot Rod sped through it?
Kup likes to know where all the roadblocks are so he can more easily evade them.

Streetwise "Pull over, you got an ilegal cybertron, mutt upon your trailer!!"
Kup "No, 'Hic' chance, hic!!"
Kup "No, 'Hic' chance, hic!!"
In my own head that's a deeply angry squirrel. But don't worry, I'm sure Kup handles his affairs in a mature adult manner.
...oh no...
When you’re as old as he is everyone mightas well be.
Nah, Shockwave's at least 40.
On the 'old' note, for Studio Series, I do hope that we get a new Cliffjumper from that Bumblebee, as the last Cliffjumper I got is the one that came with a yellow repaint of Roller and while it's a great little car, I never thought it worked AS Cliffjumper. It would be great if I could get one of the SS Bumblebee vintage to go with my Walmart Bee, so I could have them both without overlapping the molds and still keep them in about the same scale.

Imo, the mold already looks more like Cliffjumper from half-way along the hood to the back; the rear end is more angular than a Beetle. I suspect they plan to just swap out the front fascia/feet and head and maybe stick a spoiler at the back.
Yeah the roof is a dead giveaway. Arguably the weirdass bumper as well.
I think that this SS86 Bumblebee is interesting. Robot mode looks pretty good and is where it really shines, IMO. But yeah, I already have recent iterations such as Netflix and Origins, so this is kind of falling into the "how many versions of G1 Bumblebee do I need?" category.
I'm definitely curious how SS86 'Bee is going to stack up, size wise, to the other modern mini-bots. The ER Cliffjumper mold is just so small compared to the rest of them, so I wouldn't mind if this one stands a bit taller.
EDIT: In a perfect world, the rest of them would have been made small to match BB and CJ, but at this point, it would be better just to upsize the two.

Oh, hey, looks like you're right on that. I guess in my mind, I assumed the whole group were meant to be about the same size.
