I love how they couldn't get the colours right on any of the Bumblebees. Also, yay for more pointless repaints of super-simple toys that I'm still unsure are even wanted by children who care about RID. Aren't most of the children who want these simple toys only really interested in Rescue Bots? Maybe I'm wrong, but from everything I've seen (and from my personal experience when I was a child), I always wanted the more complicated toys because they were proper Transformers. Granted, they didn't have many of these "simple" toys around when I was younger, but still.
