As today's review<\/a> said, the so-called \"Bumblejumper\" mold was released in Brazil by Estrela, under the name \"Sedan,\" with original art and a full Tech Spec. Take a look:<\/p>\n

Função: Estratégia<\/p>\n

Estar no lugar certo na hora certa - esta é a chave para a vitória.<\/p>\n

\"BumblejumperSEDAN não é super-veloz nem denum uma força extraordinária. Mas é insuperável na sua especialidade: planejamento estratégico das missões de todos os Robocars. Sua capacidade de análise e seu raciocínio lógico são altamente desenvolvidos fauzendo com que, frequentemente, ele se antecipa sos acontacimentos e planeja ataques-surpresa devastadores contra o inimigos. Possui é sangue-frio e e calculista.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

(The actual art was white<\/a>; we changed it to yellow because that's the color the toy saw release in in the US, and was on-theme for the review.)<\/p>\n

Oh, what's that? You can't read Portuguese? Fine, here's a translation<\/s> transliteration:<\/p>\n

Function: Strategy<\/p>\n

\"The key to victory? Be in the right place at the right time.\"<\/p>\n

SEDAN is not especially fast, nor particularly strong. But no Autobot can match his skill when it comes to strategic planning. His capacity for analysis and his logical reasoning are so highly developed, he almost seems to see the future. Cold-blooded and calculating, he plans devastating surprise attacks against the enemy.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Again, it's unknown whether Estrela wrote that themselves, or localized material Hasbro gave them. Same goes for the art: Estrela may have gotten it from Hasbro as-is (if Bumblejumper was planned to be white instead of yellow), they may have recolored it to match the toy they were releasing (they actually released Sedan in four different colors, but only the white one has been found with its card), or they may have created it themselves; there are examples of them doing all three of those on different toys in their line, so we can't guess with any sort of accuracy.<\/p>\n
