I'll gladly take a cartoon accurately scaled Bumblebee with an "out-of-scale" alt mode than an absurdly tall Bumblebee with an in-scale VW Beetle alt mode.

Accidentally.

The Amazon exclusive battle mask seems interesting to me, as long as it isn't exorbitantly more expensive than anywhere else. I don't care about the coin.

True, but it originally came from the fiction (i.e. - Marvel Comics and Sunbow cartoon, which wasn't an anime).Sideshow Sideswipe wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Fixed that for ya.shajaki wrote:VioMeTriX wrote:this is a lame attempt to use one of the variants of bumblebee's g1 faces and give the effect of change like movie bumblebee...lame in my opinion.

And then that 'happy' face was used for a japanese bumblebee minibot collection release.
