Seems an odd omission to make, leaving the battle mask out- as this is a representation of one of Bumblebee's original G1 toys, which had the battle mask/faceplate. If it was marketed as a different character I'd understand, but the only other characters who share his altmode are Volks (who's orange) and Glyph (who's blue)
I'd love a MP Glyph out of this. Easy way for Takara to add another fembot to the line at the same time they make more money to justify the mold.

The battle mask didn't come with MP-21. It was an Amazon-exclusive add-on, like MP-12's pointy pile-drivers, MP-17's missile launchers and MP-20's hypnochip lunchbox thing.
Yet people seem to (incorrectly) assume it's an omission or removal (despite not also complaining about the "omission" of MP-21G's jetpack).

Lol my mp bumblebee has the battle mask. And he didn't come from Amazon.
Not even that Lil baggie or paper.
It was inside the instruction sheet.

Then it's either a KO or your seller opened it up to slip in the extra Amazon stuff, because packed-in faces come in their own slot in the plastic bubble, not in the instructions.
Add-on bonuses, obviously, do not.

Is the gradient on the transformers logo incorrect on the KO version? My box has the correct logo
Can you tell me differences between KO and official on the figure itself?
And was the coin amazon exclusive?

Coin for Asian release. As for it being a KO, either you got the amazon exclusive version or your vendor was just a nice guy.

Red Bumblebee should have had a regular Bumblebee face and the face shield. It should've been based off the G2 version. Doesn't really make sense to have the regular face. Still a nice exclusive, just an odd choice for the face.

I can only figure that this way TT makes money by not including the mask, and offering it at the same price, or more (I assume)

Except I don't think the battle mask is offered even at an extra price, which I'd be OK with if they did.

Yeah, if you ask me, the only versions of of this mold, both existing and hypothetical ones, that don't really need the battle mask are the regular cartoon-based MP-21 and a hypothetical (if unlikely) Bug Bite release. All others (G-2 Ver., Red Ver., a hypthetical black redeco, a hypothetical Glyph redeco) would need the battle mask since they'd be based on versions of the original battle-masked toy.Seibertron wrote:Hellscream9999 wrote:Seibertron wrote:Red Bumblebee should have had a regular Bumblebee face and the face shield.

I'm currently in Hong Kong. I saw the possibility to pre-order the red Bumblebee here at an action figures store for 268 Hong Kong Dollar which is 34.58 USD.
