While I dislike movie Bumblebee, I have to admit that the toy that came out for him was pretty good. And it had better be too, since he was shoved down our throats for the past eight goddamn years! When his toys start dropping in quality *coughRIDcough*, THEN we should worry.

What? Me worry? Check out Twitter instead!

Bumblebee squares off against his less-articulated nemesis.

Which one do you think is a better toy of the two?

In my opinion, the DOTM Thundercracker/Starscream mold is the best seeker in the Movie line, through the balance between robot mode and alternative mode.

Objectively, DOTM Thundercracker is more rewarding, but I'm a great G1 fan... I would choose Generations Thundercracker. ^ ^

PS: your profile pic is all kinds of awesome :michaelbay:

It seems Megs has abandoned the Deceptecon case and decided to join KISS!

Since someone asked on Twitter how to do this I might as well post it here for anyone else who wants to do it.

Fireflight's hand is kinda sorta gripping AB's combiner peg to support the back. Slingshot's hand has a hold of AB's gun-thumb to hold up the front. Air Raid leg is out one click for extra support.

Once you get Superion holding AB, it's just finding the balance to keep him upright. Once you find it he won't fall over unless you shake him around a whole lot.

Nice, looks like the new CW Figures can go the Seacon route (one limb bot can become a weapon), may have to experiment with Offroad and Rook to see if they can be converted similarly

In my opinion, CW Megatron has great details and painting, with simple and rewarding transformation and a very well tank...

...but has great objective defects also...

I think it's overrated because it's Megatron, I can't tolerate those great defects on an expensive leader class.

Thanks for the extra pics, I was thinking I might pick him up for the kids, how durable is he?

"how durable is he?"

In my hands, it's very very durable, in your kids' hands, I don't know... :lol:

I'm joking obviously. ^ ^

It has a good solidity level, in my opinion a great toy for your kids. ^ ^
