Plus the knees are closer to the middle of the legs, which is an improvement

 

I didnt notice it before but, now that you mentioned it...it does look better yellow did a quick edit.

As for the price....looks like ShowZ is the place I will be ordering this from.

 

Let's hope. $160 for this guy is way too much. I said I'd have to decide but I've thought it over since then and no, not spending that much on Bumblebee. I don't care how fancy they think it is with the lights and such: it's just not worth that much.

 

I'm not sure where I read it, maybe lichlute, which said expected price was about 2900 New Taiwan Dollars, so it's roughly 100 USD.

Update: in Vietnam there are some shops have accepted pre-order, at 99 USD

 

Make sure to pay your balance quickly before us retailers start whining again and force places like Showz to raise proces  

 

If only those US retailers fell through.... I would cheer that the menace was gone.

 

There's no final price yet.

 

$103.99 on showzstore for those that shop that way 

 

I just saw it and I was thinking... "WTF". 104$, like the BA Prime... maybe Zeta Bee it's not my figure. Lately the 3rd party figures are starting to be very expensive or it's me?.

 

That's much easier to swallow. Still a little higher than I'd like but, given what we've seen, I'd say he's probably worth it. Enough that I'll throw down a deposit and wait and see how it goes with TC. Thanks for posting the price - I'd checked ShowZ yesterday and it wasn't up yet.

 

I check every morning the prices, this morning the price was unknown. But... thanks to Zherneboh I saw the pre-order of AoyiMech Jazz OSKO haha, I just paid that one.

Talking again of Bees. I'm concerned about there's no a 21cm figure to fit with TW Freedom Leader yet. All the Bee or BB Movie figures are around MPM scale and TW Prime seems to be oversized. I hope that some company design a bigger Bumblebee figure.

 

Really like the look of this fig, but even at $104 it's a no from me. In addition to price exceeding value, my opinion of Zeta quality isn't in high regard based on some of their figures I own.

 

No problem I feel a bit the same, it's probably worth it given how the final product looks. Not much to lose locking in that deposit on this one at least.

Haha, that's exactly what happened to me, I was going in to pay some other PO then I saw that the complete purchase price wasn't $1 on Pioneer 

 

At this price they must fix the waist paint and black fingers.

 

£79.99 in the UK, + £5.50 postage (or $104) from TFS Express UK site.

$170 from TCP...lol

 

Yikes, zeta’s not so cheap now that they Can’t save on costs after TW. Definitely skipping this bee at that price.

 

104$. Hmm...
More than I hoped for (~85$) but also not an instant 'nay' for me (said 120-150$ I was afraid of). I must think about it   Can't help but like that hammer and plenty of accessories he comes with.

 

For me this Bee is a bit expensive, makes me feel more comfortable waiting for the TransCraft.
Maybe because the BA Prime priced at $100, I just think any model from $100 should have something exceptionally good, and this one is not that hype...    

(I would go for it at $70, without any lighting though, but it seems those lighting is not at that $30 additional cost)

 

I mean even when you consider non KO prices it’s expensive, hell dx9 is selling a motormaster and 70% of a combiner for 150.

 

So this Bee is about 17cm, right? If it is then I'd say the price isn't completely unreasonable. Both MPM Jazz and BeetleBee are like 90$ and they're about the same size and they don't have any LEDs.

Speaking of LEDs, how exactly did they fit those into such a tiny figure?
