New NewBee with squishy sidekick

Behold!

Sam action figure with new-mould Bumblebee that he fits into:

I like, I like a lot. Great idea, I'm a huge sucker for scale and such like that. The figure itself looks awesome too. Additional figures sold separately, oooh..

[BWprowl]

Bah! And after I went and bought that Indiana Jones Mutt figure to go with my Movie I toys too! I mean, we knew this was gonna happen with the second movie, but still...

I'll probably grab it anyway. Finally, we're getting a Bumblebee with a working mask!

I think BB's hand has been replaced by a seat for Sam, that's where the hands go on the toy, and you can't make out a right hand in the photo of the bot mode.

[onslaught86]

He clearly has a gun-arm there, though, I'd assume it folds up if Sam's not sitting in it.

How do you know it's a gun-arm and not merely a removable accessory? It looks to me like it could be a removable accessory.

[onslaught86]

Could be, I'm judging by it being a launcher and already the same length as the other arm. If it's removable, I doubt there's a hand underneath.

I really don't need another movie Bumblebee, but Hasbro may have convinced me with the Sam figure. That's a novel enough accessory to convince me to buy yet one more iteration of the character.

If JT is right about this, I will complain as loud as anyone. Louder in fact.

But, for the moment, I will be optimistic, (no pun intended), about this.

Human figures have been long lacking from the line, and this is a welcome expansion.

Heck, I'll buy as many of these as they crank out-- this is the one feature I've wanted from TFs from day one! As much emphasis as they put on the human characters in well... EVERY series (except Beast Machines *spits*) it's surprising they didn't do this a long time ago. I'm probably more pumped for this than any of the other movie toys thus far-- hope it's an expansive line.
