    As much as I want to agree, they have one tech that no one can do in the 3P world.

    It's called the Tampoed Faction Symbol (Trademark) technology. Some people don't care about it, but plenty do.

    Man that truck mode is rough. I mean if you want a bot mode get 3a one. I can’t see buying this version especially after all the other options that are out.

    I can, best looking transforming prime, is cheaper than the 3A one, and has a massive slew of accessories. I don’t have a phobia of feet like a lot of people here apparently, so I’m good with the truck, especially since it’s the most accurate truck mode in the prime war so far.

    These sort of comments really make me think about my own collecting objectives. Do i really need my optimus prime to transform? I mean, i will never choose his truck mode over his bot mode- just to be clear. But knowing that your figure can transform is a feeling that adds value to your figure. I dont have to be flipping it all the time, but the memory of transforming it once or twice is something very satisfactory. I dont dont really care about optimus' truck mode. For me, good enough works fine. But the bot mode must be nailed. So why not just get the 3a version? Well, maybe I am just stubborn and insist that my transformers can transform. Sadly, not all dilemas have pretty answers. Hopefully my mind will be open enough to try one of the non-transforming options one day. But for now, it seems too niche to have a place in my collection. Also, micro USB chargeable parts.

    Aside from the truck in the movie having a silver stripe.

    its not just the feet. the lack of a headache rack and the entire back end of the truck just looks like legs not a truck. oh and i don't mind it not looking exactly like the truck on the screen either

    It won't even fit. This is 3A scaled so it's way bigger than the leader's trailer.

    *Shrug* I'm just saying, we're getting silver as a primary color for his robot mode, so there's got to be some bit of 'give' with each decision. maybe we're all just seeing the light bounce off the stripe in their sample pictures it just 'looks' white, but is more of a bright/flat silver.. until it comes out, enjoy the white stripes.

    Dave Willis already made the joke so its worth repeating:

    He's not wrong. For all of his high marks, and minor flaws, Freedom Leader is the MP10 of Third Party Bumblebee Primes.

    Seeing how nice Trans-Craft Bumblebee is I may wait and see how they do.

    I think of this a lot.... A LOT. But then, I see the TW pictures and his beauty traps me again XD. The fact is about scales, I want to know the scales of the Bees. I think TC Bee will be like a MPM or less, not oversized. I preffer oversized MPM, the details are glorious.
