This custom built TRON Bumble Bee Transformer is a striking feat of toy design. The toy combines elements of the TRON series with the classic Bumble Bee character from Transformers. It looks cool, and then you realize that it actually transforms too and your mind is blown!
The TRON Bumble Bee Transformer was built by Ammra. The identity disc and hands were made using a 3D printer and attached to the rest of the figurine using magnets. The figure was made in both blue and red, though the blue version looks better because TRON is associated with that color palette and represents the good guys.
Since the TRON Bumble Bee Transformer is custom built, you can't find this guy just anywhere. You'll have to commission the artist or make one yourself.
