Laser_Optimus:
That's got to be the sorriest excuse for an exclusive that I've ever seen...
Paradigm-Shift Prime:
Meh.
Draven:
The epitome of everything I loathe about most repaints; incredibly lazy and totally pointless.
100% effortless pass.
crasis:
Utterly stupid. Yawn.
Chosen:
It's hideous, and a terrible resemblance to movie BB. The only aspect it has going for it is the black jetski. You lose the chrome that really distinguishes the Henkei figure from the Classics version, and replace the Hasbro white deco for a worse black one in alt mode.
Two thumbs way, way down for this one.

I am glad that I am not the only one who thinks that. I have my Classics BB and my 08 Concept BB so I am happy and will pass on this Exclusive.
Deceptigtar:
lame lame lame. look more like animated BB.
Peaugh:
Gah. I wasn't aware movie Bumlbebee had red headlights, and those stripes do NOT work on that mold. AT ALL.
Still, I'm curious, being an exclusive and all, how much these will end up going for on eBay.
Dark_Rage:
Reminds me of the e-Hobby exclusive they had a few years ago; just a Cybertron Primus with a sticker slapped onto it, haha.
WhiteMocha:
Terrible. I've dutifully bought every version of every Classics figure so far, including all the Henkei versions, but this will be the figure to break my completist streak.
What a waste of a repaint. But then, I guess it's better to have an UNdesirable exclusive sometimes... takes off the pressure and expense of tracking it down.
Batman:
I think it looks decent enough, I'm not going to hunt it down or anything, but if I got it for cheap (like $15), I'd bite.
Smasher:
I was going to pass on this -until I saw the red headlights.
That just so makes this toy.
I think all cars should have red headlights.
grock35:
meh...it's for completionist i guess....if it's cheap i may get it....but it's not something i'll hunt down
BigRC83:
It is good (not great.) But I'll hang on to my Classics BB.
Devastattor:
Yawn.... that's pretty bad.
DisThunder:
Man, exclusives just haven't been doing it for me this year...
Dragonclaw:
That's an EASY pass for me, man I'm glad I'm no longer a completist.
Omnius:
A very easy pass.
Optimus Prime:
That's...underwhelming.
Overenergized:
2 black stripes, how creative!
Ktulu:
Still like the original Hasbro version best. This is definitely a resounding 'Meh!'
Obvious Prime:
Meh. I'm quite content with my regular Henkei 'Bee.
RobotoChan:
Lol - thats just comical.
Somewhat akin to the naff KOs on eBay to be honest and a simple pass for me.
Takara_destron:
Boooooring
flywheels:
*puts it on his "skip" list*
Dr Wheeljack:
I like it i dont have classic bee if i can find this one cheap im going to get it.
Super_Megatron:
Must miss!
Bendimus Prime:
And here I thought simply repainting BB as Cliffjumper was lazy. Way to lower the bar Takara.
microclone:
wow, BB is, er, yellow, with some black parts.........
Fosterlager:
Neat idea but the deco is a flop on this mold. I wouldn't mind seeing Stealth BB's deco on Classic Bee, for S&Gs.
Silverwynde:
I've revoked the geek cred of everyone here.
SO CUUUUUUTE!!
shibamura_prime:
I'm gonna buy a couple Henkei 'Bees and a black sharpie and make me some counterfeits!

I'll buy it because I'm a completist, but he's like a mish mash between the Japanese and American versions.

Feralstorm:
Except for the black stripes and red headlights, it looks much like a Hasbro 'bee.
I'll go out on a limb and say it doesn't look bad at all, though it's hardly imaginative as others say. However, movie-themed repaints of G1 and other lines seem as common for Takara currently as G1-themed repaints of movie toys were for Hasbro.

SydneyY:
It does not say what sort of exclusive it is. It is weird that it says "限定版500量", though. It is 500個 in Japanese...where does this come from? Just wondering because it's a very strange mistake to make.
Noisemaze:
Enough with Bumblebee already!!! It's getting sickening now.
nkelsch:
They couldn't go for a vacu-foil gold body with maybe a goldbug head? I mean 500 pieces... come on, do something worth a crap.
Kouri:
It would've been nice with some thicker stripes, or even just one off-center stripe. ^^;

Well we had Cheetor from 1996 to 2001, then we had Hot Shot from 2002 to 2006.
Since they got the name Bumblebee back now they'll use it whenever they need a kid-friendly character who's yellow.
Jarodimus:
Hasbro/Takara/Tomy has to try pretty hard to make a TF that leaves me completely uninterested.
They've succeeded here.
G1Prowl:
Maybe if I could find a head that looked like Bumper to swap out with it. Potentially Hubcap
Omegatron:
Must have!
Well, must have piss for brains if I'd spend more than $10 on it.
ultraq:
Hello,April Fool.
Bahamut Prime:
Not exactly the most exciting figure I ever seen...
