$300 - I hope the yellow on BB is like the yellow/orange on Fans Toys Maverick.

 

Just watched Bumblebee again last night and am even more pumped for this guy now.  

 

For me is the most ellegant movie of the franchise; very coherent, with story, good characters, good heart, good FXs, action and argurment balanced, etc.

 

I completely agree, and yet I'm finding that it lacks that certain crack element most of Bay's films had that kept me obsessively rewatching my favorite parts over and over and over and over and over....

To be clear, I would much rather watch Bumblebee straight through than any of the Bay films, and yet they were addictive to me in a way Bumblebee just isn't proving to be.

 

The car mode doesn't look very stunning, but the bot mode looks great.

 

Those 'wings' on the back are not the movie accurate doors...



They're the rear quarter windows...



Just saying  

 

Doesn't bother me in the slightest.  

 

Smart way to do it without mass shifting

 

Wot !
I never wooda figured.

 

I have to admit I didn't notice because of watching the movie, or even because I have the 3A Bee, but because I own a Beetle and I can recognise a rear quarter window when I see one (or two)  

 

Me neither... if I actually buy this I won't really be looking at the back that much anyway  

And everything else looks mostly accurate. Including the backs of the legs, which is something the Zeta offering hasn't managed to do.

I feel let down, I want to see some mass shifting!!!  

 

I mean, foux parts are better than partsforming, that's for sure.

 

If I could like this 100 times I would.

 

True... and they don't really stand out as something 'wrong' at first glance.
Like I stated earlier, I only really took note of them as I own a Beetle, the casual observer may not notice  

 

Zeta has visible wheels and is less accurate BUT much cleaner. This one is a real mess of parts in that area which is why I'm very curious to see it painted and how it would look like in person.

 

It's the large roof areas on the backs of the legs that I don't like on the Zeta.
This one looks to be more movie accurate, but you're right, it needs to be seen painted to show the detailing fully before a proper opinion can be formed.

 

Eh, better than the hanging concept mess that's on most official toys.

 

Yep

Any option you pick will be better than the official one

 

Yeah, of all those 3P Bees this is something we can all agree on  

 

I feel like the last bee may be unique toys, the hands seem very reminiscent of the kinda hands they use
