Me! I can't believe how much better the 08 version is. I would never have bought the 74 knowing the new one would arrive shortly after.

I'll try not to beat myself up too much over £7 though

74 version stays in car mode.

You could always pretend it's Sunstreaker. Marks and Spencer seem to think that way:

I like them both, I wouldn't dream of putting the old one away. I keep the Concept version w/ the other movie Autobots, and the 74 faces off w/ Barricade on a different shelf.

Right now all my TFs are in robot mode, FWIW.

As if Sunstreaker would let himself be seen in that condition!

"Bumblebee! Why aren't you ready for battle yet?"

I dont like all those dumb gundam weapons, but the paint on the bot parts and alt mode sections is great!

I don't have 74 bb, but i hide my regular jazz because he has not erned the right to gaze at FB Jazzs' glory

by **Leon S Kennedy** » Thu Oct 25, 2007 4:31 pm

I have it backwards, I kinda want 77 Bumblebee.... My 08 is nice and all, but the other looks oh so cool! I however, want every movie version of Jazz ever. Jazz..... ROCKS. They must find a plothole to revive him in TF2

I sold my 74 after buying the 08. Got 5 whole buck for it.(sold it to a friend)

by **jaws** » Thu Oct 25, 2007 8:33 pm

Actually being a massive Camaro buff for 20 years and owning 3 of them, they used a 76-77 in the movie and a few brief shots of a 74. And by the way, its a 2009 debut Camaro, but will be sold as a 2010. Check out Camaroz28.com

that's what I do too! I love bumblebee! I have bb 2 pack next to the transforming case!......

IMO, i think this is a pretty stupid and old topic there must be 91328 threads about this when concept bee just hit (not 08 )

oh crap that's just brutally amazing! The paint brings out details I never even noticed in the figure, like under the roof.
