Description

y'know how in this last decade there just hasn't been enough bumblebee toys? ;)

Okay, I get a lot of folks are sick of the little guy, and I happily admit the movies have created a ridiculous bumblbee marketing ploy that only money crazed moguls would believe is neccesary or even working.
But just stick with me here.
Back in the day, for no reason whatsoever, 'Bee was always one of my fave characters; Prime was awe-inspiring, Ironhide was funny, Jazz was cool, but bee was, I dunno accessable. He was the little guy, a tad pudgy, made mistakes-I liked him.
He was one of my first TF toys, and I cried when I thought my mom wouldn't buy me Pretender Bee (he was already stashed for Christmas but how was I supposed to know?).
I nearly cried again when Classics 'Bee came into my house 'cos it was too long coming for the yellow guy to make a comeback, and I'm not ashamed to admit I hugged my alternity 'Bee right out the box (god knows what I'll do to MP roddy when he gets here O.O).
Anyways, one problem: They are all too big!!-so I present to thee my scout class 'Generations' BUMBLBEE!!!:la::la:

Made from an animated activators bumblebee, he still transforms via the button; his shnazy new autobot badge :D

No vehicle mode pics yet 'cos it is late and I am lazy O.o

The gun was scratch built from styrene sheets.
Head was made by attaching the face of energon stormjet the the back of the original head.
Arms are from a KO of a movie bike I still do not know the name of :P

Enjoy. And no flammimg the bee'ster--It's not his fault adult ninnies in high places think they know business skillz. :3
