...Or at least, my version of Bumblebee.

Having recently gotten into transformers (ever since the live action movies,) I thought popped into my head to try and design and redesign some myself. So I went on the internet, looked up a whole bunch of stuff, and gave it a shot.

Needless to say, it is not easy getting these guys right; you can't just make a car and a robot and say it's a transformer! No! Ya gotta show the robot is that car and it can transform from it. So I made a couple of designs, tried it out and didn't like it. I first started with Optimus, but had trouble designing the flatbed (he's a flatbed, not a firetruck!) and the idea that his legs come from the back platform thingy just wouldn't work. If it did, it wouldn't be a realistic flatbed! So I took a break from the leader and started on the kids' favorite: Bumblebee.

I took a couple of design ideas from his various incarnations: his classic volkswagon beetle car, the style and physique of Tranformers Animated, and a few knickknacks from the live action movie.

...I think I got this one right.

So comment and stuff, and I'll see if I can finish Optimus or the other guys.

Oh yeah, and bumblebee is owned by...what was it, hasbro? or...bah! whoever owns him ow.
