    I've been considering this one for my kids this Christmas, and those photos settle it for me. Huge improvement over the regular retail version.

    $50 / year, and absolutely worth every penny if you go regularly. You'll pay prices for brand names that are typically at least as good as the same product with a decent coupon at a regular store. They also pay their employees extremely well for retail (on average 2x what WalMart / Sam's) pays, so the people working there appear happy, well dressed, and are extremely helpful.

    Anyway, you can also shop there w/o a membership if you get a member to buy you a gift card.

    Hmmm...they still did not paint the upper fingers yellow for the left hand.

    The regular Battle Ops is good enough for me.

    It is a slight shame that the Mudflap is similar or identical to past ones.

    Ever since Takara have been repeatedly misleading people about making a Metallic / metal flake Mudflap I feel the lack of a Proper Shiny or metal Flake Mudflap & Skids.

    I'd like a Mudflap Legend that was coloured more like the RPM.

    I agree this Bumblebee is interesting and much more worthwhile than Ultimate Bumblebee or ROTF Leader Megatron to name 2.

    Why did'nt they give him some metallics before? HA Bumblebee would've been so much nicer.

    Or atleast one metalic deluxe bee. Battle Blade would be a fine candidate.

    Post a request in the "wanted" section of the junkion. You'll probably be able to find someone willing to hook you up at a reasonable price.
