Hey guys, I've gone through three Deluxe Animated Bumblebees (the yellow version) and every single one has an issue with the hood when going into leg formation! The issue is always the one WITHOUT the siren, it freakin' falls off all the time, but the other one stays on fine! Any suggestions on how to repair this?! It's so frustrating regarding the transformation of the little guy!
It does go back on (well, one of them doesn't, it's like the hole is too big.) I've even swapped hoods to see if one fit better than the other. I can pull the one with the siren down, flip it around, no problem. The one without the siren pops right off, when I try to move it into position. Animated's QC seems to not be so swell, eh? Anyway, the issue is that it appears that the hole is kind of big. Any ideas to fix it?
You are not alone with this problem. At least a couple of other people I know of have this problem including myself. Another issue are the arms if they do not get incredibly loose or just easily pop off with little pressure.
I have the same issue with both my second yellow BB and with my Stealth BB. The joints can be carved deeper, and nail polish added to the ball. That fixed mine fine.
This is ridiculous. I just want to contact Hasbro over this. It's nothing about being gentle, I cannot move the panel at all without having it fall off. Maybe I'll get an Activators Bumblebee instead.
You're just gonna have to deal with it for a while. Mine kept popping off, but after a while, the joint "wore in", and now mine doesn't pop off. Even if it pops off, it sill goes back on so i don't see why it's that big of a deal.
wow after 2 id have given up and dealt with it lol hopefully whenever I get the deluxe Bee I dont have that problem but I just need to find him so I can get him
