    Hmm, they did that annoying thing where not everything is coated with the metallic paint and the unpainted bits don't match well at all.

    Does this release have no stickers (aside from the faction logo for B.2)? Interesting if so.

    Yeah, that's always irritating. It makes the figure look unfinished, especially from the back in this particular case.

    This is much better than I expected. I passed on the first release of BB, this version is far better IMO.

    Now that Clear blue B2 is something I'd rather like.

    Bee looks like he might need a little more gold paint though or at least some faux metal flake dry brushing as a paint effect add on the yellow.

    How crazy would the Beast Hunters Weaponizer Bumblebee look in gold armour though !

    The gold paint does look very nice, but not $100+ nice. Especially since he still has a lot of normal yellow. I agree with Stepper though. A shiny red Optimus would be great.

    Meh, there's no way that choppy inaccurate paint job will justify me spending import prices on an Ultra class figure. It's puke gold.
