When I bought the Target Concept Camaro I thought the plastic quality would be better on the regular one.
I unboxed him and I have to say, Way to over hyped.

They both feel like they are going to fall apart when I transform them.

WAY to over hyped.

Im done ranting.

Disagreed. I usually only buy the high end TFs (MP & BT) until the movie got me interested in the 'cheaper' movie toys. But I still think its a great toy for $9.99. Don't think the plastic & construction is bad at all for that price. Sucky paint job, and a couple loose joints it may have. But most of it feel pretty sturdy and joints & swivels are tight. Its the best $9.99 TF I've bought for sure...(though I don't buy that many $9.99 TF toys LOL). Not to mention this toys has great potential for a custom paint job. The sculpt and details made it so easy to do.

You mean like the dirty version that comes in the 2-pack?

Yes, the "dirty" version is the Target 2-pack. Want to know how to make it clean? Watch this video:

Do not do this on Concept 2008/09 Camaro BB since his doors and other parts are painted yellow, not molded in yellow like Classic '77 Bumblebee.

... but aside from a little airbrushed 'damage' these toys are exactly the same, right?

Yes. The only difference is the Concept BB has "battle damage" airbrushed on him. Otherwise, same exact figure.

no, concept bee can now lubricate on people, theres a piece that'll fall off, he can talk too, there's a button in the back of his head so he can move his mouth... this is the battle damaged one.... he also has no legs, one side just a thigh the other a thigh and the knee

OF COURSE THEY"RE THE SAME! haha sorry.

I think it is the hunt that wears you out when you finally get it. I know when I finally found one, I thought "that's all it is?" Now I can see that it is a damn nice figure, and glad I got it, but I did have that initial letdown, just cause it felt like a talk getting it.

Hey, good answer!

I never considered that evolution 2-pack bumblebee would be any different from the regular toys, just the way the initial post was written, sounded like maybe there was something I'd missed.
