In the 2007 live-action movie, Transformers (directed by
Michael Bay), Bumblebee is sent to earth by Optimus Prime ahead of the other
Autobots to gather information, find the keeper of the secrets of the All
Spark and remain hidden. Bumblebee is assigned to guard Sam Witwicky from
the Decepticons and poses as a dilapidated 1976 Chevrolet Camaro – Sam's
first car. When Mikaela Banes (Sam’s crush) criticises the poor condition of
Bumblebee’s vehicle mode, he scans a passing Camaro Concept and transforms.
Since his conversion from 1976 Camaro to 2006 Camaro Concept, Bumblebee’s
alternate mode continues to evolve throughout the film series and appears as
one of the lead characters in the 2011 film, Transformers: Dark of the Moon.
This model is presented in a battle weathered livery.
