It's been two years since the LEGO Icons model 10302 Optimus Prime released but finally, the toy giants LEGO and Hasbro are once again partnering together. This time there making the bright yellow transformer Bumblebee in brick-built LEGO form under the set number 10338. The July 2024 model will retail for $89.99 with 950 pieces which is considerably less than 2022s brick built Optimus Prime which had 1,508 pieces for $169.99.
The iconic brick-built Autobot has the same play feature as Optimus Prime where by it can transform into a car without removing or adding any pieces. The 2in1 Bumblebee model is based on its G1 appearance and therefore transforms into a yellow Volkswagen beetle. In its fully-fledged Transformers form, 10338 measures 24 cm tall which is just over 10 cm smaller than 10302 Optimus Prime, but still measures 16 cm wide.
Like many 18+ LEGO Icons sets, 10338 doesn't include any stickers and therefore includes an exclusive 2x2 printed yellow tile with the Transformers logo in red. Unlike Optimus Prime, Bumblebee with a much lower piece count and price does not include a couple of brick-built accessories apart from the blaster in his hand. The brick-built Bumblebee Autobot will be the main and only build along with the usual 18+ black information plaque.
