Underwhelming to say the least.

I'd pass too: just for the same reason I'm passing on most Henkei figures that aren't the G1-deco Megatron I already have. I prefer the G1-deco on Henkei Megatron over the Nerf-style deco of the American version, but the others don't do enough for me to be bothered with. This is what it is for C-0X Bumblebee for me. Besides: I already have both deluxe Movie Bumblebee molds; don't need a Classics Bumblebee repainted into Movie Bumblebee.

OH MY GOD!! IT LOOKS... exactly the same. I can kinda see where the micromaster drove over him and left tire tracks, but I wouldn't shell out however much it is for two black lines :\

The movie is done. Let's move on and stop repainting figures into characters that I would like to forget.

I liked movie Bumblebee. I agree that this is getting redundant though. I may pick up a couple more movie figures maybe (possibly a couple more of the Target exclusive basics, now that I know there's a Target reasonably close to where I live), but the line is for the most part dead otherwise.

False alarm, guys.

Turns out that it was just an April's Fool joke.

Aww. A very early April Fools. =(

I never understood the point of April Fool's jokes which are in essence very possible (or even likely) Some people would want such figures and I think it's cruel to suggest something they might like, only to reveal it's yet another childish April Fool's joke.

I don't mind in this case, since it's a pretty useless minor repaint but it could have been real. There's nothing weird about it that should make you feel 'fooled' other than the fact that they simply lied about its existence. Whooptiedoo.

Leave the AFJs to outlandish concepts which sound plausible for a few seconds, guys. It's not funny to find out something will not exist.
