That's the gimmick from the Bumblebee movie line. Are these reissues?

Kind of. Prime is a repaint, BB looks to have a new head.... Unless anyone knows different

Prime *looks* to me like he's had a slight remold of the cab, with the bumper grill and the smaller windows. But aside from that, yeah, it's mostly the Bumblebee toys again. Which isn't really a surprise.

God dang, Bumblebee cannot win in these Worlds Collides sets. Always three to one against him.

Good job he always has that nice big cannon

Just as well he's no longer plain old Bumblebee... Although it remains to be seen *which* Goldbug he's going to be. Probably not the one I'm after - which in this instance will be a good thing.
That Scorponok actually looks better than the original release - although the head's not show accurate, I think I do prefer those colours. So if that four pack was available I could be tempted, especially if the Goldbug is the right Goldbug. But it won't be, and it won't be, so I'm saved.

I'm sure that'll happen right after we get G1 Swoop and Shockwave...

Of course, that said, Pulse at least seem to have twigged that collectors now want some of the Buzzworthy stuff and it's been appearing on there, so *maybe* this new set will appear on there. Maybe.

You know, ransack is interesting, because there are multiple Ransacks, and there's a modern mold for most of them. Smart money is on G1 Ransack from Legacy Kickback, but it's still a pretty good chance that it's Cybertron Ransack from Legacy Arcee. Goldbug is the other one that could surprise us. Is it Cliffjumper (most likely), or Netflix Bumblebee? (Probably not, but the chances aren't zero, either) |

I'm told from reliable sources it's G1 from Kickback

For comparison because it just looks so wrong, but it isn't  |

He looks like Zangief wearing an orange speedo, matching leg warmers, and one of Hasbro's toy TF helmets

I think the original works because of the shape.
The new one is just too Slavic shaped.
He looks like he'd hit on you with an accent that isn't russian, but you can't quite figure out what it is.

He looks like he smells like hummus. I don't even know what that means. I don't even know what hummus smells like.
This morning I have gone from "...why?" to "I will die without this."
I need it.
And quite frankly, I'm surprised.

Slightly nutty. Bit too pink for hummus, which I love but sadly my tunny doesn't. It's the chick peas.... I've seen people elsewhere compare it to a plucked chicken but I've seen MOTU Origins Minicomic Stratos and this is not that!
I think Dinobot's pink needs to be a bit darker. But it's not a bad go.
But do I need it?

Salmon Pink. It's made from Smoked Salmon pate!

No thats a freshly plucked Chicken right there. Original Dinobot didnt look fresh. Somehow, despite expectations, fresh is worse.

The differences in shade between them is so tiny, that right now I'm chalking it up to differences in photography.
