An interesting new project has popped up on the Transformers radar: new non-transformable Transformers Bumblebee movie model kits from Trumpeter. These images were posted by
Capcomkai on Instagram. There's no current information on price or release but word is they will be rather small, in the range of a Legends class up to a small deluxe class (10-15cm). These images are of what appear to be unpainted prototypes but still show off some articulation and a good amount of detail. Of most interest is the depiction of Shatter in robot mode after she scanned the revved up roadster in the movie. The current roster appears to include Bumblebee, Blitzwing, Soundwave, car scan Shatter, and Optimus Prime. As always stay tuned to Seibertron for any further details as they come to light and share your thoughts in the forum. Enjoy!

I need to see some paint or more details. There’s so many takes on the BB designs already I was surprised to see another company doing a take on them. They’ve got some heavyweights to contend with.

The jet kibble is missing, so this must be her initial design upon landing, not her Triple-Changing body.

Would be easier to customize them if they are model kits?

If the price is better than the flame toys kits I might be interested.
