LEGO Transformers Bumblebee Rumored for Summer 2024

There’s a new rumor that has recently surfaced that piqued my interest and that is that we could be getting another LEGO Transformers set, this time featuring Bumblebee. It is reported to be coming this summer with it having 950 pieces and retailing for $89.99. Bumblebee (10338) will be joining Optimus Prime (10302) the only LEGO Transformers set to be released. The main question now is which version of Bumblebee it will be. Will it be the G1 version since Optimus Prime was the original one or will LEGO go with the updated version from the movies.

What Other LEGO Transformers Sets Would We Like to See

Now that we know that LEGO will be releasing the Transformers Optimus Prime (10302) it opens the possibility of Hasbro continuing the partnership with more characters. We can only speculate on what characters that we could see in LEGO form but there’s no guarantees if LEGO will make any more.

The obvious choice would be the nemesis of Optimus Prime which is Megatron. It’ll be hard for LEGO to make Megatron because his alternate form is a gun and even the G2 version is the tank, both of which LEGO will probably never make. If there is a Megatron, the most likely alternate form would be the Tyrannosaurus Rex from Beast Wars or a jet.

The next character that is possible for a LEGO Transformers set is Bumblebee. He is a proportioned Volkswagen Beetle and we know that LEGO likes making Volkswagen vehicles.

Starscream is also one of the more popular Transformers characters. His alternate form is a jet and from a playability factor, jets are cool especially with kids.

One of my favorite Transformers is Grimlock the leader of the Dinobots. He’s also a Tyrannosaurus Rex so that could conflict with Megatron if he was to come out as a dinosaur.

Other more secondary characters that would make good LEGO sets include Jetfire, Soundwave, Shockwave, Rodimus Prime (Hot Rod), an if a UCS style set would to come out, I nominate Unicron.

Again, this is only my speculation on what characters could be the next LEGO Transformers set if LEGO was to do additional ones … Continue
