    H’s responding to a comment about the eye detail. His response doesn’t seem to suggest anything about the missing paint apps, just the crisp details in the render.

    I asked him about the paint in the face but we’ll see if he responds.

    I just wish his transformation for the torso was different. It's been a decade. The design is good.

    It's so disappointing that Bee is back to his Bay design. I love the Bay design, but it is soooooooo over used.

    Could be only way they make him look good in toy format it’s no third party company.,

    his design does look good different for once almost unrecognizable if not for him being yellow

    It’s not his bay design. It’s just his bumblebee movie design with door wings and Camaro parts.

    You can thank the designers using the Bayverse transformation for the ten thousandth time in a row for it looking like Bayverse bee.

    Thinking like this is why the planet is in the shit it's in. I refuse to accept that everything has to be greeded into awfulness and out of existence.

    Sorry to say but corporations are not your friends. Hasbro is not an exception. You don't have to excuse them.

    Yeah but the detailing on them are far superior to these, ive happily dropped 65 on the new gundam aerial and that thing is a thing of beauty, no loose paint apps or joints so its not a fair comparison really.

    Looks nice, but they really skimped on the paint for his head. Just looks unfinished.

    It’s actually the complete opposite. We have the nice things we have because someone somewhere created something of value. Businesses that don’t see and act long term don’t last long term.

    Here's a better pic. In the middle of his chest you can see his engine which the toy seems to be missing.

    Nowhere did I say they were. Nor am I defending Hasbro.

    I think Bee looks cheap so I’m skipping it. And if more of the main lines start looking like this or costing more than I’m comfortable with then, yeah, I’m out there as well.

    I, too, would like for Hasbro to become a charity.

    Wait.

    "Battletrap fires a barrage of blasts at Noah and Elena to secure the Transwarp Key."

    Wasn't the so-called "Transwarp key" (great name btw, its like they have a dart board filled with various TF words and nouns and this is what they got) part of at least one the leaks?

    Also oh wow, another macguffin central to the plot? Where have we seen THAT 5 other times before?
