Lets wait for TC...

 

these two figures don’t even look the same that one in the case looks like trash. The legs though. Mis transformed maybe?

 

Review is up

 

Hah, definitely an MPM scale. Thanks for this although I'd like to see more comparisons especially with Zeta.

 

Thanks for sharing, I uploaded another review too  

 

For size comparison.

 

Wow nice! He's compact. The proportion is better than Zeta imo, but articulation is far behind. Can you summarize if these reviewers think TC02 is good or not?
Although TC is the untimate option at the moment, I would still like to pick 1 of this if the price is reasonable.
And is there any news about when it will be release and price? Thanks!

 

He looks short and chubby, a little bit childish like in the movie and scales beautifully with the MPMs. I couldn´t see the entire video yet so I couldn´t see the transformation process, I hope is not so difficult!
I like that they dind´t give us thousands of photos, they worked silently and gave us the product.
I hope they can produce it and sell it quickly.
Still want to see the Transcraft version, but this one is the best for me at the moment.

 

Size looks good. Do we know how big the Transcraft Bee will be? I love their Mohawk but scale between Bug Bee and Mpm Ber is more important for me.

 

Same here. Zeta is a bit big to my liking, and finnicky transformation. Not too sure about the quality, and alt mode paintjob is sloppy with all the panels not matching up. Bit expensive too and I don't care for the lighting features.

Still wanna see the TC.

 

Now we're talking. Still no comparison with Zeta (but I can't really blame you for not willing to go through the transformation process of Pioneer  ) but I happened to have both TE-01 and ZV-01 so you can easily imagine the size difference.


As for the vehicles, my biggest concern with Zeta is that the car mode is ridiculously big. I think I like TE proportions better (minus the visible kibble underneath) but the lack of the silver stripe on the bonnet bothers me. It looks more "toyish" in comparison. TE could try fixing it in the final release but this is a nitpick really

 

Zeta's even bigger than I thought...

 

I love this design. I love how he's squat and chunky and I love how his torso ends up so cohesive in bot mode. Transformation is super complicated but the results are worth it. He looks much closer to the character than the Zeta version.

That said, there are a few things I don't care for. With nothing closing up the sides, the legs look like a bunch of panels folded onto each other (Zeta has panels there that cover that up). Looks like the hip articulation is fairly limited. And attaching his blade and/or blaster attachments just bulks up his forearms way too much. Oh, and the cat eye headlights are unacceptable. Still, looks awesome all around and I want it.

I probably won't get this figure, though. I have to prioritize a bit more than before so I can't really afford to get multiple versions of this character and I already have Zeta's which I also love. Since I don't have a movie-bot collection for him to slot into, the size doesn't really matter to me and besides that, Zeta's scales great with Aoyi's and Toyworld's Optimus. But I will drool over the reviews and any photos you guys upload.

 

Im probably going to get this as, I dont like the MPM.

He's a chunky boy.

I apparently got the last PO at show.z

 

This bot looks good. It even fits with TE-01. Nicely done, TE!

 

Love it, looks cute and chubby! Even the molded details look pretty movie accurate. Probably gonna get this along with transcraft's bumblebee

 

Zeta is as big as 3A. I know 3A doesn't transform, but it looks much better. Both are too big. I deal with this on the 3A one because he looks so good. if Zeta had been smaller I would have gotten it. After watching this review I think I may grab this one.

 

The designers at Transform Element are sorcerors. I wasn't planning on picking up a movie 'bee -- I decided I only wanted MP-scaled toys from the original Movie, and the other movie Bee options either don't look like the movie or are in the wrong scale -- but Bumblebee is the only other live-action TF movie I actually liked, and I do like the designs, and this is the right size, so I'm down to branch out.

 

Figure looks good and if this is your thing, awesome.

But TE seems to be a raising Star in 3P and I'd really like them to stick to G1, at least for few figures so we can really see what they can do.

 

I like it, this is definitely still on my radar. I like how the shoulder wheels are actually the rear wheels as well, it's a clever little trick, and makes good use of how the doors are adjacent to them on his back (and hence can facilitate getting the rear wheels up there)
