    I still think both new versions of Bumblebee are inferior to the ones we got for the last movie. The first one is ruined with the stupid arm and this one with the chest.

    Awww you deleted the funny comment :p 

    And yea both the new versions have f'ed up things that make them inferior to the previous version. But the previous version had, at least my opinion the flaw of having a bad head. So, like i did, i switched things around and think i got a version that's the most accurate screen version we've gotten so far.

    The "stupid arm" is his signature cannon, his main weapon, and probably the best toy version of him with it so far.

    I don't think I'll be getting Cannon Bumblebee, I'll go with the preview fig as my "main" Bumblebee for ROTF.

    Stupid arm because of the ugly orange missile and lack of proper storage for the gun in car mode. Good idea, poor execution.

    1. The missle can be removed.

    2.The gun just swivels out into the gap where the old gun was. How is that not proper storage? It's not like you have to remove it or anything.

    I was just going by what Paul was saying. If you don't have to remove it for transformation, then fine.

    yes the missile can be removed...but the cannon itself doesn't really rotate and store well. Every time i've tried doing it...it's a pain in the ass to line things up properly and even when i think i have it set right, the cannon pops off it's peg. It's too tough to execute.

    I wouldn't really call that proper storage

    And to confirm...i just tried it again..rotating the cannon to fit into the gap still doesn't work. It sits back further then then original cannon and it makes it so that you cannot get a flush lineup with the rear section of the car and the hood when putting it into vehicle mode.

    I'm not planning on getting either of these. I will, however, get the Human Alliance Bumblebee.

    just wondering, but is it maybe possible that the roof transforms differently??? Is the window maybe supposed to go over the window, instead of the roof over the window???

    I got mine yesterday (and preview BB too) and I like it a lot despite the solid chest. Pretty fun to transform.
