I said no BB if no beetle, because that's how I think it'll be. I'll never say no to a new mold though.

When VW says 'No bots with guns!' that's when the HasTak marketing shills need to say 'No problem! We'll have his engine become a comm array, with Prime's picture on the screen. He can talk to MP Prime that way.'

I agree. HasTak should learn to take no as an answer sometimes.

With Bumblebee's questionable warrior association in the grand scheme of things, I still think that Bumblebee still needs to me made and that VW should give the thumbs up on this one. If VW thought of it properly the decision to have Bumblebee and Cliffjumper created would not only give us a kick ass Alt/BT but would also give a certain boost to their own pockets. I think that my becoming a VW fan all started because of Bumblebee and the Beetle. I'm about to trade in my GTI for the Beetle (and when I traded in my Bug in the beginning for the GTI I found that I started feeling more nostalgic for my Bug again). I even keep a Bumblebee in my ashtray :) good thing I don't smoke.

I just hope that VW soon has the good sense to make this fan's heart jump and give me my Bumblebee the way he should be. If not, as I said before, not all is lost. Dodge gave us the Viper Bros. Dodge can do it again with the Neon Srt. And it would be perfect. Anyone have picts of this bad boy?

It seems to me that Volkswagon's image would be better if they said "no decpticon repaints" and were on the winning side for once.

No bumblebee what so ever... keep the alternators in the present... I want a Hotshot, or a Rodimus or even a Override!

But Override being a Ford GT!

Either Ford KA (bit outdated now) or new Mini, though I hear Mini have said no.

But really, any small vehicle with a rounded body would do.

somebody tell them bumblebee is a peace loving character and is a wuss and doesn't even carry a gun (rather a gunless BB, than no BB at all, right?).

He's still a character embroiled in a war. At the time the proposition was made, that was likely all that VW needed to turn the prospect down.
