I've been a pretty big Bumblebee fan since 1985, not necessarily due to his kid appeal, but just because I like his design.
I'm not a huge fan of Bayformers (the Michael Bay movie version of The Transformers), and the only two movie toys I have are the Battle Blade and Battle Ops Bumblebees.
The Transformers: Prime show, on the other hand, I really like. It seems to strike a nice balance between Bayformers and G1. While this deluxe class Bumblebee isn't terribly show-accurate, I think he's still a very well designed toy.
Stay tuned for a Bumblebee family photo in the coming months ^___^

Wells’ story of The First Men in the Moon first appeared as a ten-part serial in The Strand Magazine (Nov. 1900 – August 1901) with illustrations by Claude Shepperson .

Five Scents, not Five Cents, were recently given to me in small amounts. I decided that the only way to begin my relationship with them was to talk to the sealed scents with Tarot. The deck chosen for this operation includes magical keys from Zodiacal, Enochian, Ceremonial, Goetic, Tattvic, and Elemental components on the cards. The display upon each card is an opening to great amount of magical potential that is simply superb, or astoundingly amazing as the different magical schools each enlighten the other.
Tarot of Ceremonial Magick: A Pictorial Synthesis of Three Great Pillars of Magick
by Lon Milo DuQuette is available as a deck of cards and book often sold separately. The deck has been reprinted and sold out and reprinted again and is available from United States of America suppliers. The deck and book contain enough magical wonders from great sources all presented with contemporary wisdom and brilliant original illustrations.
The fur is fake, the scents are real, the magick is ethereal and the tarot deck is an amazing deal. The circular light was fashioned just for these pictures. The materials used for the circular snoot were taken from the recycling and will be returned to recycling to keep our journey with our planet as environmentally friendly as possible. All settings were manual as the strobe provided a constant light. Taking and editing these pictures was daunting, dazzling and rewarding. The avenues of magical observation indicated by the cards and the many keys delivered in them remain as a record for all future encounters with each scent.

The “Book of the World: A Family Miscellany for Instruction and Amusement” was edited by Dr. [Thomas] Gaspey [1788-1871]. John Weik and Charles Weick published the first volume in 1852 and John Weik alone published the second volume in 1853 (not shown here). The first volume contains 48 full-page engravings, 35 of which are colored. Colored engravings of that period were virtually always colored by hand with water colors. This took time and great skill as the color was applied to the plate itself.
“The Curious Republic of Gondour” is a short story in which Mark Twain proposed a state in which all citizens have at least one vote, but where further votes (up to a dozen) could be acquired through education, which was provided by the state for free, or by relative wealth. Furthermore, no one was accepted to any public office without passing strenuous competitive examinations.
Together with the title story, the book contains 16 “Other Whimsical Sketches.” Most of the sketches were taken from a series Twain wrote for “The Galaxy” from May, 1870, to April, 1871. The rest appeared in “The Buffalo Express.”

The sequel to “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” (1865), “Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There” (1872) was published seven years later and is set some six months later than the earlier book. This time Alice enters a fantastic world by stepping through a mirror. “Through the Looking Glass” is not quite as popular as “Wonderland” but it does include celebrated verses such as “Jabberwocky” and “The Walrus and the Carpenter,” and episodes involving “Tweedledum and Tweedledee” and “Humpty Dumpty.” The book features fifty in-text illustrations by John Tenniel.
