Modern Warfare 3 is set to have an influx of muscle and engine grease, as the Warhammer 40K collaboration looms, King Kong is beating his chest, and Dune's Harkonnen is bringing the fight to the already-existing Paul Atreides.

But with all these biceps and testosterone flying around, one of the new characters better be quite the petrolhead, as there's another new arrival who looks in need of some WD-40.

A soon-to-be-released bundle, following the mould of these hunky additions, is currently being flamed by fans, who have dubbed it "Fumblebee".

Modern Warfare 3 leaks suggest an unofficial Transformer skin is on the way

In a future update to Modern Warfare 3, presumably in Season 3, an Autobot-like Operator is set to arrive, as leaks have suggested that Dokkaebi will have a "Petrol" skin.

The leak, which appeared on a now-deleted Reddit post, depicts a character who is wearing a beige metal outfit with tyres on its elbows and headlamps as a helmet.

Instantly, players have decided that this is Activision's attempt at a Transformers knock-off skin, drawing comparisons to Bumblebee, given the almost yellow palette.

Although the skin wasn't revealed in the Season 2 Reloaded blog, the quirky car-like character will likely come in a later update, and fans are confused as to why there's a fascination with futuristic bundles all of a sudden.

"What’s with all the robot and space suit skins? Do they think we are playing infinite warfare?" Quizzed one fan.

Others mocked the character with puns, saying, "Fumble Bee", "Temu Bumblebee", and "Floptimus Grime".

The strange Ebay Transformer is apparently just one of a few other bundles that are lined up, with Cheech and Chong, Snoop Dog (version 12235), and Devin Brooker all supposedly in the works.
