More NYC: Brooklyn Bumblebee's continuing adventures around town...
Brooklyn Bumblebee returned to Coney Island
for the June 2011 Mermaid Parade...To Protect.
June 2011 - Aaron Sagers
The Coney Island Mermaid Parade is the largest Art Parade
in the U.S. and the most fun summer event in NYC.
A Big Thanks for all who expressed concern...and for all the water!
Brooklyn-Bee wouldn't let 85 degree temps get in the way of fun!

Not bad for an old man, a human!
Actually, I trained for this like it was a marathon...it kinda was.
Brooklyn Optimus Prime version 6 weighs 25 lbs. less...I can't wait until June 2012!
That's Saturday June 23rd, 2012 @ 2PM! Be there!
A special THANKS to FDNY EMS Unit 43V, and event staffer John L.
This was Bumblebee version 1 during the wet & wild 2009 Mermaid Parade.
I was starting to manipulate plastic, using household items...I knew that I wanted to go full-robot.
Constant comments about the 'Brooklyn' license plate - a minor detail - really got me thinking...
'Brooklyn' became my brand, my company!
...see, you never know where something minor can take you...
Brooklyn-Bee also protected the Spring 2011 'Wizard World' Big Apple Comic Con
