    I was thinking of purchasing the G2 bumble that is on sale at tfsource. Is it worth the purchase

    I think so, its a lovely color in person and it doesn't have an annoying flesh creature causing the cost to go up. It also comes with the g1 toy face mask and stickers for either G2 or G1.

    The rocket pack accessory is kinda meh, but the G2 figure's color is amazing in person. I really like it far better than the "yellow" on the G1 version.

    $40 is a great price for MP G2 Bee, so if you're on the fence don't hesitate to pick him up, especially if you don't already have MP G1 Bee.

    I actually like the jetpack.
    Personally, I chose it over the regular version because I liked the face better, and because the gold coloring is quite striking.
    I'm no Masterpiece aficionado, but I do see this figure as worth the price.

    If you're a Bumblebee fan then yes that is an excellent price. It's also that cheap on Amazon, and seems to include free shipping.

    The only thing holding me back is the G2 Autobot symbol. At least with this, you can attach a G1 symbol to the blank side and flip it around!

    Yeah, don't let that hold you back! The G2 MPs (both Sideswipe and Bumblebee) don't have the insignia tampoed on, but gives you stickers for you to chose!

    The color on him is great, much better than the original orange MP Bee. I actually substantially prefer him to the G1 Bee.

    Argh. The only affordable MP of the year is of a character I don't really want an MP of.

    I have both G2 and G1 Bee, and frankly I prefer G2. The color is much easier to look at, the accessories are great, I LOVE how bizarrely specific his sticker set is, and he's just a great toy. I love the MP Bee mold but the original one's yellow color never quite sat well with me, and considering what an unstoppable G2 fanboy I am I'll pick this one any day. I paid like $65 for mine, so if I didn't have one already I'd buy one at $40 without a second friggin' thought.

    Now if only Red Bee would hurry up and get here...

    I got him for $33.81 on Amazon just now. I had points I don't have an MP Bumblebee and when I saw him for cheap I had to snatch him up at least it will fit with my G2 Sideswipe. Now if only Ultra Magnus would go down in price a bit I would totally impulse buy him lol

    Yup so I snatched him up I really want that Spike exo suit too but oh well I'll wait till G1 Bumblebee goes down. I had seen somewhere that the Diaclone color Bluestreak was on sale I think it was for like 50 I would have gotten him too but it was sold out . Hopefully Takara does a Victory Leo to go with Star Saber I really want an MP Victory Saber.
