I want to know the final size of OP M09 (aka FireScorpion) to know If I have to boy the TE-Bee or not.  

 

Whens his release date show z store has it by 4th quarter 2019

 

@Snaku

 

TransformElement is old BlackMamba? now everything have sense... why the chinese manufacturers has this "dance" of names?. AoyiMeh is MEH (not Mech  ), BlackMamba was preety good.

 

More and more people seem to getting this fella in hand. Can someone shed some light on why ShowZ has this guy listed cheaper than the other sites? I usually shop through TFdirect, or TFsource and they have him listed in the upper $90 range.

I JUST WANT TO PREORDER.

 

US retailers (especially tfs) are usually more expensive than chinese. And ShowZ always tries to get the lowest prices possible.

 

Watched Sunoftheempire's video. This thing seems inspired by MPM-7 but done right with regards to movie accuracy and making things simpler for transformation. I wish the arm-gun integration was more seamless/convincing(literally looks like the hand is open and holding the gun like a football). Also wish the battle mask folded out from the forehead and over the face instead of being swappable like MPM7. I was also expecting better knee/elbow articulation.

 

TE did great on their BB. They are also working on the BB Optimus if memory serves me right, any updates on it?

 

I don't think so. They covered that under Aoyi.

 

TE has not made mention of any other BB movie figures.

They technically covered Bumblebee yet here we are  

 

TransCraft is, which has also announced their WV Bee. It's hard to keep track of all those Primes  

 

Just saw the Sun of the Empire review. Sold. Looks incredible.

 

This is also my prefered version at the moment, scale, paint and transformation wise. But I will wait for the other 3ps to show their version (and maxbe a v2 mpm?). I'm not in a hurry for buying figures at the moment, due to the situation and I hope to see some new stuff when we'll have better times!

 

This is where I am at too. Out of the ones that are not still in the prototype phase this for sure looks like the best one, but if TransCraft's one ends up as good as it looks so far I'll go with that one despite preferring the scale on this one. Then I can get rid of my MPM7 and my 3A one hopefully! I like to have one of each character in each scale if I can (unless it's Optimus).

 

I'm trying actually to have only one figure per character and only in mpm scale, but it's really difficult!! At the moment I already have two Optimi (both weijiang: mpm ko and evasion mode ko) and I'm so tempted from this BB Movie characters... If there were at least all the 07 movie Bots and Cons I could try to concentrate on them but Goddammit Hasbro is soooo slown and not all the OS kos or 3rd party figures convince me completly

 

It doesn't help that 3P makes up their own scale half the time. I wish they'd stick more to making stuff that complements the official versions, or at least all agree on a scale together haha! I prefer smaller figures a lot of the time (smaller apartment plus personal preference) but I also like consistency.

 

I tried to do the same but then I found myself in need of at least 3 movie Bumblebees - 2007-11 Bee, TLK/AOE Bee and WV Bee. And don't even get me started on Primes...

 

What I should have said is "I try not to have more than one figure of each version of each character, except for having one in ss scale and one in mpm scale". I'm nowhere near as disciplined as I made myself out to be haha but I'm trying to cut down!

 

Just got my email from showz about completing payment, its coming boys.

 

Yup, time for me to put an order in!
