Autobot Bruce? Naah...

Before you jump to conclusions, let me clarify. This is not Bumblebee's long lost younger brother, if he has one. This humble Chevrolet Cruze is the handiwork of a Transformer's fan from China. The Chevrolet Camro was an expensive car for him and the special edition is yet to to be launched.

So our fanboy went ahead and bought a Cruze which happens to be a practical family car and not a powerhouse. To make up for the loss of the real Bee, he added decals and the twin stripes and we have to give him a pat on the back for his work. The detailing is immaculate. It does look purposeful and doesn't pass off as just another sticker job.

So Chevrolet, how about a Cruze, next time in TF3? Make him an Autobot. If the Chevy Volt can be the Autobot Jolt, may be Cruze can join the team as...Bruce (?) . Meanwhile I can transform my pick up truck (if I had one) to turn it into Ironhide. Bull bars, roll cage, chunky off-road tyres, rocket launchers, laser canon...did I go too far?

Take home your own Bumblebee Camaro...life size

GM is all set to cash in on the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen buzz. Rumour has it that Chevrolet is planning to launch a special edition Camaro along the lines of the Bullit Mustang from arch-rival, Ford. The car will have Bumblebee and Autobots splashed all over it(not literally). If the tip is accurate, Sam Witwicky wannabes will be able to book their own Bumblebees on the same date of the movie release. Do I have to say that date is June 24th?

Hope it doesn't relieve on someone's head like the real Bumblebee did in the movie. GM must be infusing some manners along with goodies like the Autobot insignia on the inside and on the special wheels.
