Yum. Here comes Ben Higgins, the dreamy and ever-so-smiley star of this season of The Bachelor. We can't wait for his arrival as he steps out of that limo on the first episode, looking like a million bucks. Here are some pictures of the hunk we call the most eligible man of 2016 to hold you over until the season begins...

Here's Ben - the most beautiful specimen to ever grace the grounds of this earth. We may hate Kaitlyn for breaking his heart, but we can't thank her enough for making this piece of man single again and ready to date any one of us.

Oh look, here he is again, all dressed up and ready to meet his first lucky ladies on the first episode. He looks strapping in his little bow-tie, doesn't he? He cleans up pretty nicely - I wonder if this is how he'd look on your wedding day with him? *sigh*

Don't worry, Mr. Higgins can be casual, too. Here he is on vacation, which you two could do together if you were a couple. He probably got a great tan on this trip, which wouldn't do much for him considering he's already an 11 out of 10. Ugh, how does he do it?

Here he is again, sitting on a couch, putting his arm out, ready to put it around your shoulders as you two sit together as a couple. Ugh, you two really would be great together, wouldn't you?

Oh my! Mr. Higgins brought you a bouquet of roses!! How thoughtful, of course you wouldn't expect anything less from the most polite, young bachelor of the century. I guess chivalry really isn't dead. You'll gladly snatch that bouquet from his muscular hands before he has the chance to hand it to one of the other obsessed girls pining after him.

Wow - a beautiful, pearly white, casual smile. This is how he looks at you, and you know he really loves you. Could life be any better? Only if there were a million of him.

Oh my. There are almost no words for this. Here he is, Ben Higgins, ready to give you a rose. He wants to keep you around, and you are more than happy to oblige.

THE FINALE. IT COULDN'T BE BETTER. HERE HE IS - BEN HIGGINS, THE MAN, THE MYTH, THE LEGEND, IN ALL HIS SHIRTLESS GLORY. You prayed this picture existed, and boy oh boy, did your dreams come true. If this doesn't get you pumped for this coming season, we don't know what will. Until then, farewell from Ben and his perfect physique; he can't wait to see you at the first rose ceremony ;).
