My entomology prof in college showed us a newly molted roach that he had pinned down under a microscope. When bottom lit, you could see everything inside with perfect clarity. It was amazing to see the dorsal heart(s) pumping the hemoceal along its length.
I can't remember if hone bees molt once they emerge, I would imagine they do, but I think they molt while pupae and emerge at their final size. You probably are looking at a newly molted honey bee whose exoskeleton hasn't solidified or a prematurly emerged adult.
What an oportunity for learning though!!
