why isnt this one called Ultimate Bumblebee?
.....

 

He's almost as tall as Leader Prime? That's a lot taller than what I thought he would be. Human Alliance looks pretty interesting, I'll have to pick him up.

 

The chest pieces are a pain but at least you can tweak them back into place at any time which helps a bit.

He is a indeed a mini ultimate Bumblebee and a much better choice, as at least he is almost in scale. Ultimate Bumblebee is too stand alone.

 

Yeah true, it's easy enough to fiddle with.

I also agree with what you said in the sightings thread about the packaging, it's really nice in person. It's the first packaging in ages that I won't be throwing away.

 

I would pay $30 to see every movie car in this scale and detail. He looks to be great quality and design, but he's so damn big! I'll get him, but I'll only open him as we learn of more HAs.

 

So good, I have re packaged mine back up to display like that.

Added bonus is that it is packaged very well but it is dead easy to remove and replace as there are only a couple of tape points outside and ties inside.

 

I wish Hasbro would have kept the scale so that these would fit in with Alt's.

 

it's a bit off, but not that bad. I think they'll fit in pretty well.

 

yeah, someone posted a comparison with Alt. Mirage, the vehicle modes are almost dead on but the design of the movie Aesthetic really stretches them out, so he was nearly 15-20% taller than Mirage.

 

He is also more articulated than most of the alternators and much easier to transform.

 

Human Alliance = Alternators 2.0.
Well, that's what I've decided to veiw them as anyway. I am SO stoked for this line, and those pics looks wonderful. I'm crossing my fingers for ALL of the movie cars to be visited in this scale.

 

Could you put movie legends into the human chairs. I'm curious if its possible. Maybe someone like legends sideswipe or springer. Whatever you think could fit.

I really don't like the humans. Their going in a storage bin so I can play with the movie alternators in peace.

 

Legends are too big to fit in the toy, Sam only just fits inside at a push and he is ~40% smaller than a Legends toy.

 

Exactly like mask figures then. The humans Just barely fit. Thanks.

 

Wow...totally hadn't thought about MASK. Must be similar size figures, maybe Matt Trakker would fit.

Will dig mine out at the weekend.

 

I picked mine up on Sunday. Here's a few of my pics.

Here it is compared with an alternator, an FAB, and a deluxe.



Shia LaBeouf fits perfectly in the alternator.




There's a little platform for him to stand on, and he can opperate a flip out weapon from there(not pictured).


The Shia LaBeouf figure is tiny yet surprisingly posable. I recently picked up stone-cold killer Shia LaBeouf from Indiana Jones knocked down to €2.99. That's also quite a small figure.


In comparison to the alternator, the materials feel a little cheap, and yet it was more expensively priced than alternators ever were. You don't get the rubber wheels, or chromed and clear plastic on the head lights.

The head is well done. He has big marble eyes, the light piping works well, and the face is grey with silver paint on some of the plates. The battle mask doesn't work as good as I'd hoped. It's just a bit of plastic which either gets stuck or comes a bit loose. But the figure displays well, is loaded with features, and overall, a fantastic toy.

 

that is awesome.. who is the little green figure? I want! lol.

 

Great pictures. This one, along with the rest of the HA figs, is an instant buy. Great gimmick and articulation as well as a fairly good accuracy to the on-screen figure.

I really do hope all the cars in the movie get this treatment. After seeing that box I think you could fit Ironhide in there...

 

looks like another definite buy. **my wallet is already snarking at me**

 

Just got a text from argos, can pick mine up tonight on the way home.
