Bumblebee VHS

Paramount Pictures’ Bumblebee comes home this week, available now on VHS from Paramount Home Video! Based on 1984’s Transformers action figure collection from Hasbro, fans can experience the excitement of the cinema in their own living rooms!

Bumblebee stars Hailee Steinfeld as Charlie, a Motorhead-loving teen just trying to get through her 18th birthday. But when she discovers an unusual, yellow Volkswagen Bug, she finds herself on the run from a shadowy government organization and realizes that she might not make it out of 1987 alive!

APRIL FOOLS! (MOSTLY)

While you can’t actually purchase Bumblebee on VHS, word on the street is that Paramount Pictures really did press a limited amount of copies of the archaic format. The VHS copies were sent out for promotional use and will not be available for sale.

Bumblebee is available now on DigitalHD. The Blu-ray version hits the streets on April 2.
