AUGUST 16/2020: I do not update this blog as often as I'd like to these days (yes, this is an "understatement"), but nevertheless continue daily on these blogs:
ThreeA Toys announced/introduces the Transformers DLX Scale Collectible Figure Series, with the debut character figure to be BUMBLEBEE this December, alongside the release of the new TRANSFORMERS BUMBLEBEE film!
"Each DLX Scale Collectible figure features intricately detailed sculpts, a high range of articulation, LED illuminated details, diecast metal parts, and the expert paint weathering that 3A is known for – all at a smaller scale and lower price point!"
Apparently featuring 50+ points of articulation, stay tuned for further details to follow. The figure was on display at the recently concluded Shanghai Comic Con (pic above). Certainly with a more economical size and perhaps financially viable for the masses - not just the "hardcore" collectors in their earlier line, this looks to be a fab collaboration with the film too.
And so the newest trailer for BUMBLEBEE has just dropped online, and amidst my excitement since developed from said trailer, I froze in my seat with utter delight when G1 SOUNDWAVE appeared! Hot-damn, this looks THE film Generation-One Transformer-loving fans can look forward to, after all these years Bayformers!
Oh yeah, there be otherG1-Transformers as well, including Optimus Prime = All of whom are on Cybertron!
Paramount Pictures' BUMBLEBEE premieres December 21st in the U.S.A., December 20th on Singapore-screens!
PLOT: "On the run in the year 1987, Bumblebee finds refuge in a junkyard in a small Californian beach town. Charlie (Hailee Steinfeld), on the cusp of turning 18 and trying to find her place in the world, discovers Bumblebee, battle-scarred and broken. When Charlie revives him, she quickly learns this is no ordinary, yellow VW bug."
"Drivers don't pick their cars ... The cars pick their drivers. It's a mystical bond between man and machine." ~ I remember when those words were first uttered in-movie by the late Bernie Mac as "Bobby Bolivia" in Michael Bay's 2007 "Transformers" movie, when Shia LaBeouf's "Sam Witwicky" first picked Bumblebee - or rather Bumblebee picked him ... now eleven years later, Hailee Steinfeld's "Charlie Watson", will discover the Rick-Rolled- ejecting Transformer G1-era designed Volkswagen Beetle!
"On the run in the year 1987, Bumblebee finds refuge in a junkyard in a small Californian beach town. Charlie, on the cusp of turning 18 and trying to find her place in the world, discovers Bumblebee, battle-scarred and broken." (IMDb)
The very first "spin-off" of the Transformers movie franchise, "Bumblebee: The Movie" also stars John Cena (as an agent from "Sector 7"), and is directed by Travis Knight ("Kubo and the Two Strings"). Premieres December 21, 2018 in USA, Dec 20th in Singapore.
TRAILER SPOILER: Guess which other Generation-1 Transformer - in this case "Decepticon" shows up in the trailer?
As "excited" as I was initially, with my blog-features all but grinder t a halt after watching the film ... this Honest Trailer for Transformers: The Last Knight essentially said my thoughts and disappointments, fhanks :p
