Christmas is fast approaching which means parents will have to decide what to get their kids.

One suggestion we have for young boys is the Transformers Movie 2 Ultimate Bumblebee.  This cool looking toy will be a big hit with any boy or girl that likes the Transformers movies.  With the most recent movie just out this summer, you can bet this toy will be fresh on the minds of many kids.  Here, we take a look at several reasons why we think this one will be a popular one this Christmas.

1.  Impressive robot design.

Many kids will really like how this larger than life character looks.  It boasts light up eyes and a flip down battle mask that help make it clear that Bumblebee means business.  This one also has push button abilities that animate the arms, head and wings, and even a cannon that will automatically aim and fire.

2.  This toy has plenty of extra bells and whistles.

Kids will love having a toy that has headlights, revving engine sounds, horn and car alarm in vehicle mode.  These little extra make a great difference in allowing the kids to enjoy this toy all the more and really feeling like this is a car.  This is certainly an improvement over past Transformers versions.

3.  Friend of the main human character in the movie Sam.

The main human character in both the movies is Sam.  This is character that all kids will know really well and his best friend in the movie is Bumblebee.  This friendship will be just one of the reasons why many kids will see Bumblebee as their favorite transformers.

4.  Cool camaro look adds extra value.

One nice change of bumblebee is that in the movies he is now a cool looking camaro compared to the old VW bug that he was in earlier years.  This new hip look will be a strong selling point for kids who can appreciate the style of a nice looking camaro.  Because of the other features of this toy, kids really believe they are getting two toys in one (a camaro car and a robot toy).

As you can see, the Transformers Movie 2 Ultimate Bumblebee offers kids a really great toy that is sure to be one of the best sellers this holiday season.  There are certainly a number of great gift ideas this year, but one of them has to be this one.

The new Transformers movie has been out for about 20 days now and has received a wide range of reviews.

It appears for the most part that the critics and the older crowd were not impressed with the new movie citing the lack of a plot in place of more childish jokes and extravagant action scenes.  On the other hand, the target audience of the movie (young kids) could not be happier as they seem to enjoy it more than the original.  Even the teenage boys were happy thanks to the active role played by Megan Fox.

So despite some older folks being disappointed, the movie has sold very well and looks like this is going to rub off on all the Transformers Movie 2 merchandise.  Of course, at the top of that list the Transformers Movie 2 toys.

These toys made by Hasbro® are looking very impressive and many should be best sellers for birthday and Christmas gifts this year.  I have looked over all that is available and found a number of toys that definitely look very impressive.  (Click on the links in each section to go to specific sites of each toy to see pictures and get more information on each toy.)

Transformers Movie 2 Leader Optimus Prime

Starting off our list is the Transformers Movie 2 Leader Optimus Prime.  The new version is a welcome improvement over the first movie’s model as this one looks more like the big screen presence and has the voice of Peter Cullen give a few catch phrases.  Transformers were glad to know the original Optimus Prime was used in the second movie.

Transformers Movie 2 Leader Megatron

Another hot toy this year will be the Transformers Movie 2 Leader Megatron toy.  This is Optimus Prime’s nemesis and this one has a sleek and metallic look that shows cool and evil at the same time.  This one will also remind fans more of the Megatron that showed up in the cartoons as its weapon takes on more of that look than the first movie’s addition.

Transformers Movie 2 Ultimate Bumblebee

The cool Camaro Bumblebee is back again with a nice looking toy in the Transformers Movie 2 Ultimate Bumblebee.  This one has a more authentic look to the movie thanks to Mech Alive Gearing and Hasbro® listening to comments made from the first year’s toy version.  The result is a very nice looking toy that many kids will like.

Transformers Movie 2 Bumblebee Plasma Cannon

Role playing has also extended beyond just the robots.  Now, kids can become more like some of the transformers.  One example of this is the Transformers Movie 2 Bumblebee Plasma Cannon.  This toy lets kids try on arm toy that resembles the arm of the real bumblebee.  This one will let them shift from a fist to a plasma cannon and even have a number of sound effects and gives the voice of Bumblebee also.  Pure fun that I wish they had when I was a kid.

Transformers Movie 2 Bumblebee Role Play Helmet

The Transformers Movie 2 Bumblebee Role Play Helmet is a great addition to the Bumblebee Plasma Cannon or just on its own.  This one actually alters the kids voice and makes it sound like the Transformers Bumblebee character.  What young kid wouldn’t want this particularly when Bumblebee is one of the most favorite characters in all of Transformers.

Transformers Movie 2 Optimus Prime Role Play Helmet

Another voice changer helmet is the Transformers Movie 2 Optimus Prime Role Play Helmet.  This one is preferred by other fans who either like the Bumblebee character less or already have the Bumblebee Role Play Helmet.  This one will let the kids voice sound like Optimus Prime which is actually pretty cool.  A number of dads have actually had a lot of fun with this toy whether they played around with it at work talking to co-workers or surprising the cashier in the drive thru.  Both young kids and dads have really liked this new toy.

Transformers Movie 2 Voyager The Fallen

The big villain of the second Transformers movie is Voyager the Fallen  He has a very cool toy called the Transformers Movie 2 Voyager The Fallen.  This one also has an interesting look that will be a must have for many kids who are trying to have some extra characters for their game playing and already have the good guys.

Transformers Constructicon Devastator, 5 Pack

One of my favorite transformers as a kid was the Transformers Constructicon.  This is why I was happy to see this character have a large role in the new movie and have its own toy as well.  Its toy is the Transformers Constructicon Devastator, 5 Pack and it is essentially 5 individual transformer robots that can all be combined to make one super robot.  Think the super robot in Voltron® or Thundercats® and you will kind of get the idea.  However, like all transformers the 5 individual robots can also change into individual vehicles.  In this case, they are all construction related.

The above are the cream of the crop of the new Transformer toys.  With how many sales the new Transformers movie is grossing, I would not be surprised at all to see all these be in high demand come the fall.  Many of these toys are already selling well now and the movie is only a few weeks from its release.

This is definitely a good year for all kids who like Transformers®.
