    It has Autobot symbols and turns into a VW? Double infringement!

    It looks neat, but I don't feel the need for one.

    If you're gonna infringe, do it good and proper!

    I like him, wish they'd thought of something better to do with the doors though.

    So is this a kit to convert a bee mold into a VW? Or is it a figure? :confused:

    It's an upscaled figured with the VWBug shell + accessories... At least, that's what the picture is showing

    There's not much you can do with an accurate smooth roof...

    Which is a shame, because it really stands out against the rest of the figure which has molded detail.

    A neat effort but the doors hanging off the forearms, and the overall torso/back area are more than a little awkward. Excellent alt mode, but bot mode leaves something to be desired. I'm still holding out for iGear's PP04 BB/CJ, even if that takes a while.

    It's nice, but it's not making me want to replace Classics Bumblebee. At least not at that price.

    Sounds like a mistake. How do you even charge a Paypal account for more than you paid?

    looks great in alt mode, but the original is so much better in robot mode. Love that mold :D

    I'm not interested into the figure but the packaging is beautiful.

    Now that is messed up. It would be bad enough if just your original order was changed to a different amount. The fact that an entirely new order was authorized makes me wonder if Paypal is as safe as they claim. Hopefully they can cancel the charge before it gets deducted from your bank. But if it's too late for that then Paypal should be responsible for any overdraft fees your account gets hit with.

    Cool but I think I'll wait for a robotkingdom preorder price to pick this figure up.
