First, I used the search bar but couldn't find anything, if there's a thread already, could someone point me in that direction? So, I wish to get a Optimus from BBB. I'm looking for quality and accuracy, not the cheapest. I don't care that much for tons of accessories. I want one that transform, no statue. Any suggestions? Thank you
Sorry for not being helpful for a second, but BBB stands for, what exactly ? BMB, BBTS, KBB, etc. Bababobo ?
So BB ? Noice Toy Lab Dark Knight - In the picture below. TransCraft Something - Their Bumblebee is in the image below; don't mind his comic head, that was just my own preference.
Cheem's excellent comparisons: Toy Lab TL-01 Dark Knight (Bumblebee Movie Optimus Prime) and the poll thread: Battle of Bee Primes, which one you will buy? I am personally going with the Toyworld Prime. It the only one I think that nails the chest, but a lot of people don't like the feet in alt mode. Many are waiting to see what transcraft is going to look like, just a silhouette right now. Hell even the black mamba KO OS has a lot to offer.
I guess you're gonna have to hope TransCraft's offering is as good if not better than their Bumblebee.
I would personally recommend Toyworlds prime (Freedom Leader). To me it looks the best and has the most stuff with it.
I haven't bought anything in a while as I practice minimizing my collection, but then SS 38 came out and I started to feel that itch again, then the KOs of SS38 came out superbly painted and that itch got a little stronger, then these third parties started announcing there own almost 3A looking BBB optimus primes. And finally looking at the Toy World Freedom Leader which I could barely discern from the 3A or a Transformable figure, it was like I had full blown chicken pocks. SCRATCH SCRATCH SCRATCH!!!!!
Part of it depends on what you define as the Bumblebee movie Prime----half of what's available actually has a different alt-mode (AoE Prime's), so that's something to watch for if that's important to you.
