That's Discrimination !;p
The shipping is less for an entire car than it is to send over a single minibot from California to Australia!
And dont forget, the paintjob is "custom faded"!

When I heard a yellow version of him gonna be in this film, I became estatic for altought he broke down often, on several occasions even with fire, I loved that old hooptie.
I even got some extra BBs just to retool and paint.
Now I see this auction as I look at my primed airbrush and curse my lack of wealth as in a drunken state I can see me ruining this undoutebly priceless collectabile just to regain a piece of my past.
And when it all comes down to it, isn't that what adult collecting is all about.
Then again Lil' Delon only cost me $450(I screamed that out when Sam payed $4000). So I'm sure if I realy wanted to I could do all this for alot cheaper, and not feel so bad after I realy ruin it by taking a torch to it thinking I can realy make it transform with just a few adjustments.

Because $8000 for a camero, screen used, yeah, I smell something fishy.

Was anyone else waiting for Doug Bradley to jump out of that thing at some point during the film?

Not that I care, but I'd love to see a pic of MP Prime and MP Megatron in a bout of tug-o-war over it.

Imagine that sitting on your desk, 'what's that?' people would say, is that a copy of the allspark?' and I'd say 'no, that is *the* actual allspark cube, that is it!'.
How cool would that be, to own the friggin cube.

WEAK!!!
I would bid on loads of stuff.

And shouldn't this stuff be sold by Ladiesman217?

Me too if there were nice PICTURES and descriptions!
This is it, the key hero “Allspark Cube” from Transformers! This amazing item is an integral part of the story
and is one of the most recognizable props from the film.
Uhhhh, is it wood, resin, metal? IS it carved, molded, how detailed is it? Dimesions PLEASE??? What kind of (you know I wanna swear here) person lists an auction like this?
Meanwhile, site unseen it's $1,600+. I guess I'm the only person that likes to know what his hard earned money is going to...

Exactly. It would have been nice if they brought up this important peice of information! Go look on ebay motors at cars for sale. There are 20 pics or more on some listings and they could be selling a Kia for gods sake.
I know being a "prop" entitles this some special circumstances, but how are you gonna list something this significant with a publiclty still as you're only image?
Whatever, I'm beating a dead horse here 14K in less than a day I guess people dont give a crap. they just want BUMBLEBEE OMG!

Hence why i think its fake. One stock photo, no description as to the actual running ability of the car, whats wrong with it, what parts it may need, how many miles etc etc.
Its a fake. Just buy your own 77 Camaro and paint it custom faded yellow and black.

This car will fetch $30K, or more.
Even with "custom faded paint".

I think you are right. Because just after the early 70s, they did away with the metal bumpers, but i don't know what year exactly. Good eye though.

It's not a fake. It's a beat up Camaro from the movie. Is it in working order? I don't know. I will call tomorow because I suspect that it is not driveable in it's current condition as it has a trailer welded underneath it (you can see the hitch in the front). It would help if they stated in the auction the condition of the vehicle.

Someone in my little bitty town has one of those Camaros, in Gray, and I never noticed until yesterday, after 3 days of playing with my BB toy. XD
And yeah, $450 dollars is a steal compared to 4000...buuuuut...could YOUR Camaro do what Bumblebee did??? :P I think Sam got a bargain! Not only did he get a kickass car, he got a new buddy! XD
Either way, I'd kill for my own 77 Camaro Bumblebee...but I'm thinking it would just be cheaper in the long run to buy an old one from someone and fix it up myself. >_> Though my Aveo will probably be all jealous at me having another "favorite car" to take it's place.

If anything (drivable or not) I'm guessing you'll be getting something like this http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Fe ... eId=121138
I hope the buyer doesn't think they are getting the shiny "NEW" engine admired by Mikela.

That sucks, but I wanted to know if that was the same engine in the film.
Oh well. Now, it seems like quite a ripoff. If it had the hot engine with 8 bellmouths and all the other go-fast parts, then you could just restore the cosmetics and have a great little muscle car.
I wonder where that shiny engine is, because damn it looked nice?
Posted by i_amtrunks on July 11th, 2007 @ 6:52pm CDT
over US$3,000 for the Bumblbebee car accessories, and nearly US$9,000 for the Allspark cube...

Item: TRANSFORMERS Bumblebee 1977 Chevy Camaro (#3008) (200126643267)
This message was sent while the listing was active.
premiereprops7 is the seller.
This car is driveable and in great condition. It is the car that was used on screen in the movie and it also has the same engine you saw on screen.
Now...While I would love to be naive enough to think "OMG, FUCKING SWEET!!!" I can't help but be reminded of the old adage "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is." I don't know. I may be wrong, buuuuut with the number of times ebay has had seemingly amazing things sold that turned out to be scams, I'd be very, VERY weary of bidding on this auction. It sounds extremely fake.
