He is yellow, probably about fifteen feet tall, and can actually be hiding out in your garage right now, looking like a 1977 or a 2007 Chev Camaro. If one could choose an Autobot for a friend (or a pet, whichever you like better), chances are Bumblebee would be the answer.

If I had Bumblebee as a friend, I would spend the whole day having him transform from a robot to a car, then back again. Most of the Tranformers toys can do this, too. But what would you say if you had another Transformers toy that you can play with in an entirely different way? With the Bumblebee Voice Mixer, you don’t get to play with Bumblebee, but you get to be him!

The Bumblebee Voice Mixer is a strap-on headgear that resembles Bumblebee in every way. Remember those parts in the film where Bumblebee uses radio transmissions to communicate with Sam Witwicky? Well, you can’t exactly do that with this toy, but this toy comes with ten battle cries that should be more than enough for the amount of battling you are bound to do with this headgear.

If you want to speak your mind through Bumblee’s voice, however, this Bumblebee mask is a voice mixer after all, so simply speak into the radio mouthpiece in the headgear, and your voice will automatically come out transformed! If you feel ready to flee a scene, simply push the button that activates the sound effect of Bumblebee undergoing transformation.

The greatest thing about the Bumblebee Voice Mixer is that it can be enjoyed by adults as well. The head straps that come with it are fully customizable to fit the majority of head sizes. With this in mind, parents can now join in the Bumblebee role-playing fun with their kids. This means more bonding time with the kids, with either party taking on the role of a robot that has values, like loyalty, respect, and courage, that are well worth emulating.

With the price of this headgear averaging at 45 USD (can be found on sale at some online stores), you get a toy that not only looks and feels great, but can also provide hours of fun while taking on the role of one of the best Autobots of all time.
