Classics Bumblebee is still tops for me.

This is 100 times better than any generic Honda dreamed up by Hasbro. I do believe the "new vision" Hasbro tried to create for alt modes was just one big front. They avoid paying licensing fees and new cars are the preferred choice of their target audience...kids. I always felt the Honda was more Cliffjumper anyways. With this new Bumblebee, Cliffjumper will finally be his own mold like the original G1 toys.

Each their own. It's a good figure to be sure; but whatever Hasbro's reasons, the figures are what they are and I'm going to pay a decent amount of money for a figure that breaks the theme. I'd rather a modern take instead of a slavish G1 figure any day.

Hasbro version FTW.

Now this little guy is in hand, seeing him alongside his comrades, hes looking pretty sweet!
I wonder if they will consider doing a re-shell of any of the other minibots, such as Searchlight or Cliffjumper?
