Agreed! Especially how they implemented in such a small body structure.The MP engineers really do out do each other creation they release.

Motto: "Till All Are Pun!"
From the same show of the MP Tracks image we posted, Cyberpath has also posted a HobbyLog.jp photo of the G2 redeco of Takara Tomy Masterpiece Bumblebee - MP-21G Bumble G2Ver. Pretty much the same as the figure release earlier this year, but with a shiny gold deco, shown off here with the battle mask on. Check it out!

I've got this little bad boy on pre-order from AmiAmi.
This photo is making me anxious. Thanks CP! :grin:

My order still shows late July for release, but it seems everyone has doubt.
What gives? Do they keep moving the release date?

I know most MPs get miss their intended releases by a week or so, but I also don't understand why some people think this isn't coming. Hell, Exhaust was released, why wouldn't G2 Bee?

Sure. I would think this release is pure gravy for ol' Tommy Takaraka.
Especially after Smokey.

The release date just keeps getting pushed back, I think it according to BBTS it was supposed to be released in February or March back in November and the date just keeps getting pushed back and back with no reason provided.

IIRC, MPs 6,7,9,13,18,19,22 and 23 didn't hit their original release dates. I wouldn't lose any sleep over it. Gold Bee will be released

TakaraTomy Transformers Masterpiece: MP-21G Bumblebee G2 Version In-Hand

Postby shajaki » Sun May 31, 2015 4:08 pm

Motto: "A man who wants nothing is invincible."
As many of you may know the TakaraTomy Transformers Masterpiece MP-21 Bumblebee is getting a G2 deco release (as MP-21G respectively), and Weibo user Lost-Zzl has some in-hand shots! Generation 2 of course took place in the 90's when everything was shiny, neon, and mostly, EXTREME. So this Gold Chromed Bumblebee certainly fits in that category. With these shots we also see that this G2 version comes with all 3 faces (2 stock & Amazon Bonus) and that the molded G2 Autobot chest insignia is flipped around (in case you sensed something was missing). Scroll down to see the shots, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for all your Transformers News!

Wow, paint looks pretty great. Looking forward to seeing some pix with the cartoon face.

And I think that I just now realised that MP-21 has waist swivel. :lol:

If it were me, I'd have MP-21 with the cartoon face and MP-21G with the battle mask.

I've almost got 4 different MP displays going:
-Cartoon accurate (which is most TT releases)
-G1 toy accurate (Silverstreak, Prowl w/repros and shoulder cannons, and BB w/mask)
-Comic & Oddballs (YOTX, King Grim, G2's)
