Huh...I like him. Kinda reminds me of the g1 BB

Awesome...you need to eliminate that red on the inside of his cab. Overall, real nice and clean for the first time out. I would pick him up if i seen him in the store.

I really like the yellow you picked for your custom. It truly evokes G1 BB

I really like the way that looks.
All you need now is to display it next to one of these cartoon-accurate Bumblebees:

That would look awesome.

It's a nice repaint as said, but ... why do a figure that's already done? There's quite a few BB colors out there (thanks, Brazil! Taste the rainbow!)

Cool, thanks. It looks really great! Is it a spray or did you brush it. It looks sprayed since it is so smooth. I always liked BB, and the Classics one is still my favorite version of him.

i used a brush, but I do not recommend doing that! If you can, find a cadmium yellow spray paint and get some paint tape!

It came out great with the brush. You've inspired me with you custom. He came out better than I ever imagined. I like the little guy. Never underestimate the little guys...

Here's one I did with an extra cliffjumper. I always wondered how this figure would look in black, so I just went ahead and did it.

That last one is cool!
I like the yelow, but I think it's kind of funny that you repainted CJ back into the original color of the mold!

It's like Bumblebee fell into a big pool of black acrylic paint.
Cool!
