    Here's my "golden age" Decepticons, I think besides Powerdive these have all been TFW pickups from within the last 12 months

    Hey, can I get confirmation from anyone that the Studio Series Buzzworthy Bumblebee figures were $23 in stores?

    I could've sworn the price tag was 19.99 but I don't have my receipt to confirm.

    As a kid I was pretty incessant about calling them Wheeljack and Mirage, but I've long since accepted their names in the film were Que and Dino. As an adult it's pretty clear the whole thing wasn't as big a deal as anybody made out. At the end of the day they're just two Autobots with really interesting designs. If it's what you prefer you can call them both, either or neither really. More than anything I just wish JacQue would get a new figure already!

    Waking up to a review of Dino is one of the best ways to start the morning.
    He looks good and I can't wait to add him to my collection!

    It's unfortunately somewhat of a location issue. The standard price is $19.99, but some Targets have inflated prices for a variety of reasons.

    I paid $19.99 for it in the Target nearest me, but I was at a different Target a little further out last week and saw it for $22.99 (the Bee/Spike 2 pack was also $18.50 there, up from the usual $14.99).

    Also, I'd actually really love an MPM of Que at some point. He'd be really up there for me as far as the characters from the later films go, I feel like an MPM could really do his strange design justice. Hopefully complete with head-poppin' action.

    Swindle : You got the wrong guy Starscream!
    Blitzwing : That's what they all say...

    I'm impressed! This guy is above average among voyager class toys. Easy transformation although the jet isn't right but it works. Opening cockpit which is always a welcome in jet formers and the hands are a delight.

    Opening right palm and removable left hand that has a lot of playability like this:

    I'm surprised he comes with the necessary weapons because usually SS likes to split up weapons between releases. The only accessories missing is a missile to shove into his chest and Bumblejeep to beat around.

    Gotcha. Thanks! I know someone who's trying to get a couple of them but their local Targets haven't had them and they're debating going for the slight markup from the website. If they were all $23 in-store too I'd advise them to just get them from the website, but if some targets have them for a little cheaper then they may want to keep looking.

    Not sure if its a bit late but can you see if the shoulder guns from the Siege or Earthrise Datsuns can plug into the rectangular holes on the roof that is used for transformation? Thanks.

    I found ROTF Bee at Target today while looking for Kingdom figures, got the last one. Mine was priced at $19.99 fwiw


    Thoughts on ROTF Bee:
    He’s cool, but SS-49 is still better overall. I LOVE the new shade of yellow-orange. I also appreciate how they remolded the feet slightly, so the wheels can sit in the crevice properly instead of being pushed outward (had to modify that on my 49 to get them to fit); and the feet tab in MUCH better on this than 49. What I don’t like is that they’re unpainted, it looks like he’s wearing shoes. Still, good improvement mold-wise. The hip joints on this ROTF one are slightly tighter, but not much. The light gray is alright, but the dark gray on 49 is more accurate. Also, idk why they didn’t take this opportunity to pin the backpack. This mold doesn’t have as much of a problem as SS-01 did, but it would’ve been more secure nonetheless. Sam is a disappointment and honestly idk if I even want that thing. It looks nothing like him. I mainly got ROTF Bee to use in vehicle mode, but I admit I do like the robot mode in person—a testament to how great the mold is. But SS-49 is still my definitive Bee. I’m gonna make that one non-transforming by gluing the backpack, feet and DNA Design ankle pieces, and cutting parts of the backpack wheel fenders.

    I guess I agree, but it's a bit funny how adamant you (and some others) are about it. Call him whatever you want tho. Call him Megascream Primeblebee if you want.
    They sound like massive pains in the ass. Add this to the list of things that Dino wasn't allowed to do onscreen.
    To be quite honest it seems like it would have been much MUCH easier (and better for us fans) if they hadn't bothered with Ferrari at all.
    Fucking $24.99 at my target. They love to gouge us NYers.
    Yeah it's not a big deal I don't care at all since they're not that close to the original characters anyways, I just think it's funny how much some people care and try to pretend they aren't named what they're named so incessantly. If you get a figure you're allowed to call it whatever you want when you're playing :) 
    WTF mine was $24.99!
    This is the first I'm hearing of this foot change. Do you mind elaborating on this? I can't find mine ATM to compare.
