Well, i bought me a concept Bumblebee, and i instantly transform it. I find, really loose head and leg joints! I've now morphed him twice, and i'm worried if he's gonna get too loose. Anyone else experience this?

He's loose in general, it's not a fault. Mines the same as you've described, has been since I opened him a month or two ago. He'll stay pretty much the same.

the head is decently stiff on mine, it's the hip on my bb that's really loose

mines the same. I found if you tuck the head back it stays in place. I'll be half asleep and I'll hear a noice and turn on the light to find bb doin the midnight splits!

yup, bought mine about the time the movie toys came out and his leg/hip joints were loose.

The hips on mine are loose too. One trick I found that helps is if you have his legs straight, look at the back and the rear tail light sections for the alt mode should be even with each other and almost touching. Just peg the two pieces together and BB's legs will lock in place for display purposes. It works fairly well.

Mine is fine, I have two, the other one is in his package so I dont know about that one, but I heard everyones bumblebee head is loose.

The head's fine on mine, but the hips and legs are pretty loose. I got him near August though.

Everything is tight on mine except the torso, but he doesn't flop over.

by **toxicity** » Sun Sep 30, 2007 9:05 pm

yeah, same with mine. he wont plop in any direction, and will keep sturdy if you fiddle with him a bit, but if you knock him a little his upper torso will plop back pretty easily

My BB's head has popped off twice.

I just got the Evolution of a Hero 2 pack, and my CC Bumblebee's right hip is loose as well.

Mine's head is decently tight, but the hip is just rediculous. However, odd as it sounds, I've found that over time, it's stiffened a bit and he doesn't flop around nearly as much. I don't know what's up with that.

i think only the waist is very loose on mine. great figure...i can make him stand on one leg doing a karate kick!

I just got the same pack and the CC Bumblebee's hips are no worse than on my regular one, but the waist is very loose.

Every time you guys complain about figures mine is always fine and nothing has happened to it. I bet when I get Deluxe 2008 Bumblebee all the parts will be ok. I have never had any problems with any of my figures at all except for paint pealing off my Unleashed.
