It certainly was Sonic! The nostalgia took me back to when I was a kid, watching Transformers on tv after school. My wife, who doesn't like the Bayformers absolutely loved Bumblebee.

I was surprised that all my girls enjoyed it as well, they normally don't watch those kinds of movies. It's nice to know they're heading in the direction with this license. G1 Everyday!!!

Here’s some preproduction ILM art for Bumblebee.

And an EW interview & pics with Travis Knight on why he chose which Transformers to use on Cybertron.

Be thankful Last Knight’s box office came in under DOTM & AOE. That ultimately decided Bays fate with Paramount & Hasbro. Bay loved doing the first movie but was begged back with boat loads of money each time. That’s not a good recipe.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

All the movie based Transformer pieces are overpriced.

The only reason I decided to get the BVS 1/2 pieces were that they were the same price as for the Optimus I had bought from them. A damn 1/2 scale!

And did you see the price for their Jetpower Optimus. Now that is a lot of money, but I don’t think many collectors complained about the price at all, as it was expected.

Almost 10 years ago, I remembered hanging out in a local hobby store when I saw a Prime 1 Studio Megatron statue from ROTF displayed. Straight away I fell in love, it was huge, painted well, and was so movie accurate! I couldn't believe it, how did they manage to make Michael Bay TF designs jump into real life? I thought to myself, this is a must own! Until I saw the price, got a heart attack, and continued collecting regular transformers.

But the dream of owning a Prime 1 toy never disappeared, and finally so many years later I have brought it home! here is a video taking a look at my most beautiful Transformers toy yet! Please enjoy my review, unboxing and assembly video for Bumblebee from the worst transformers movie ever The Last Knight ☺️

Awesome collection! [Instead of having a man cave with your collection of Bumblebee statues/toys set up, you could call it the Bee Hive].....
