Sideshow and Prime 1 Studio are proud to present Bumblebee from the latest Transformers film, Bumblebee (2018). The concept for the film was developed during the writers’ room assembled in the lead up to Transformers: The Last Knight, written by Christina Hodson and directed by Travis Knight. The storyline mainly focuses on the untold history of Bumblebee and takes place during 1987.

The Bumblebee Statue based on the film comes with 2 alternate portraits. Choose how to display your Bumblebee between the Battle Mask Portrait or Unmasked Portrait showing the cutest face among the Autobots!

This Bumblebee includes two distinct interchangeable Right-arm options. The eyes, chest headlights and stinger blaster have LED light-up features. His powerful weapon, the Bumblebee Stinger Sword is only available for the exclusive version. The dangerous weapon can sting a Decepticon to death. Ready to roll into your display with a special Autobots branded base, don’t miss your chance to add Bumblebee to your collection!

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.

Bumblebee is directed by Travis Knight (Kubo and the Two Strings), and stars Hailee Steinfeld (Edge of Seventeen), Pamela Adlon (Better Things), John Cena (Daddy’s Home 2), Stephen Schneider (Broad City), Jorge Lendeborg Jr. (Spider-Man: Homecoming), Jason Drucker (Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul), Kenneth Choi (American Crime Story), Ricardo Hoyos (Degrassi: Next Class), Abby Quinn (Landline), Rachel Crow (Deidra & Laney Rob a Train), Grace Dzienny (Zoo) and John Ortiz (Kong: Skull Island). It is set for release on December 21st 2018 in the States and December 26th in the UK.
