Bumblebee spotted on CES floor

The Transformers' Bumblebee showed up on the CES show floor this year, though we have to say he was more than a little worse for wear. According to reports, he'd been out drinking all night with David Caruso at the Bellagio, and couldn't find his keys when he woke up... which we're sure you can imagine is a major problem for him. When we requested an interview, the alien robot claimed he wasn't feeling too well, and asked if we had a swimming pool and two gigantic Alka-Seltzer tablets.

I'm not a hardcore transformer fan or anything

But damn, i would love to have Bumblebee in my house

Gotto give props to the design team

[CarrerCrytharis @ Jan 10th 2008 10:49AM]

I'd rather the design team give me their props... to put in my house, you see.

[rav97 @ Jan 10th 2008 10:28AM]

I would love to have a house big enough to contain Bumblebee, you lucky bastard :).

[Panathas17 @ Jan 10th 2008 2:53PM]

[Panathas17 @ Jan 10th 2008 2:57PM]

But robots can't drink water! Rust, silly!

They cant be pee'd on by Mojo ether....

BAD MOJO!

[Smart People Play Tuba @ Jan 10th 2008 8:46AM]

Nor can robots themselves pee.

Except in Michael Bay's movies, for some reason.

[Tim Brown @ Jan 10th 2008 6:28AM]

Just too cool for school. I wonder which lucky bastard is going to get to take it home?

[ray @ Jan 10th 2008 7:53AM]

maybe drive it home?

[Discosis @ Jan 10th 2008 6:29AM]

Whose stand was it on?

[Technex @ Jan 10th 2008 6:57AM]

Awesome! :D

"Bumblebee spotted on CES floor"

Well, it can't exactly be THAT hard to miss it, can it?! Look at the size of the thing!

...I wonder what it was drinking the night before to get drunk? Diesel? :p

[Mobius_1 @ Jan 10th 2008 8:09AM]

E85 alcohol!

[Fredster @ Jan 10th 2008 8:35AM]

Or maybe Michael Bay's "Kool-Aid"!!LOL!!:)

[Donal Maher @ Jan 10th 2008 10:22AM]

I feel stupid. I read this comment and thought "Diesel? Why deisel?" thinking of the German mixed drink of beer and coke. Oops.

I wonder will any of the transformers in any future sequel be deisel/hybrid/bio-fuel/hydrogen cell, considerring the green spin going on at the mo and given the Transformers need to protect this crummy planet and it's peoples...........

[dp @ Jan 10th 2008 7:47AM]

It was the that last Energon Shooter that did it.

Isn't it always the way?

[Smart People Play Tuba @ Jan 10th 2008 8:47AM]

"the alien robot claimed he wasn't feeling too well"


It's probably just gas.

[Do Giovanni @ Jan 10th 2008 10:48AM]

So does it actually transform?
I want one!

[Hax Or @ Jan 10th 2008 10:32AM]

Is the American consumer willing to pay the $50,000-100,000 additional premium to allow his or her vehicle to transform?

Survey says "Yes!" Just be sure to exit the vehicle before it transforms.

[Chaj @ Jan 10th 2008 11:19AM]

I wonder if Bumblebee still has his 'Bee-yatch' air freshener... :)

[OneLove @ Jan 10th 2008 12:49PM]

Bring block-onica back. Bee-otch!

[3rdsun @ Jan 10th 2008 1:47PM]

Is this the show stopper in the HD DVD camp. And I spotted it the first day Engadget posted those spy shots of the floor
