No Laserbeak head accessory. Seems like its a necessity to have for this.

Does anybody know if any of the movie laserbeak toys can lend their head to this BB mold. I would find it hilarious and would totally make me want to get it if it could be done.

A figure only the ones who actually watched the movie would understand :lol:

And I love it!

"Is your daddy home?"

Beware kids! This may look like a cute Princess Bumblebee in the Bumblegum kingdom, but it's actually a murderer assassin demon in disguise!

DotM was my favorite Bayverse TF movie. Best one by far.

Also dammit Galvy.

Heh, it's sentences like this that make me wish the swear word censor would instead filter the swear words into "slag".

"Man, slag that pink piece of slag." :-P

D-Maximus_Prime wrote:Thanks to the latest Figure King Magazine, posted by the Planet Iacon Facebook page, and a notification from Seibertronian Sabrblade, we have word of a new and very funny new figure for Takara's Movie the Best line: the Dark of the Moon Bumblebee mold repainted in pink to represent Laserbeak! For those who can't remember, in Dark of the Moon Laserbeak transformed into a pink version of Bee to get close to a little girl before killing her father. This toy makes that interesting version of Laserbeak come to life! The figure is looking to cost around 4300 yen, and will be available at the end of July. Stay tuned for more updates!

Are any of the Japanese websites accepting pre-orders on this amazing "Laserbeak" figure?

None are since this cant be stocked by any of the usual retailers due to its exclusive status in Japan. Its like the LG EX toys like Rhinox and Waspinators which Japanese retailers cant stock. So the only orders available are from retailers outside japan (like TF Source or whoever else). Sorry about that.

A shame this is an exclusive and only comes with a puny pea-shooter instead of the proper MechTech cannon o' justice, as otherwise I'd say this is the best Deluxe Movie Bumblebee ever. As it stands, that honour goes to moldmate MURDERBEE, shortly followed by the less hilarious but incredibly awesome Battle Blade mold.

Seriously though, if I had any excuse to pay the no-doubt extortionate price for it, and I hadn't been put on a self-imposed collecting moratorium until the end of the year, Lovebug here would be mine.

As we knew, one of the Wonderfest 2017 - the one day event in Japan which has just ended - highlights for Transformers movieverse fans was the pink redeco of Bumblebee from the Movie The Best toyline from Takara Tomy, as we had first seen here. Thanks to the official Takara account and Twitter user tagoal, we now have some in-hand images of MB-EX Laserbeak (without tea set, unfortunately), and you can check it out below!

NO tea set?! Dealbreaker!!!!

Hm, have to say that is a delicious looking pink. Like strawberry ice cream. mmmm... i wanna lick this bumblebee.

That seems like quite a large display for such an unusual repaint.

Not too shoddy... but what I want to know is what that Squeeks thing is that she's holding. I'm fairly shore I saw it in the magazine this 'bee was first seen in.

That's part of the non-transforming Metacore line!

Thanks, I've just googled it and, just to confirm, they're actually called MetaKore. Only a minor difference spelling-wise, and yet as 30 minutes of browsing has found out, a massive content difference. :BANG_HEAD:

And in addition to the initial in-hand images from Wonderfest 2017 and tagoal, we have some more, more varied in-hand shots from Twitter user chromless of the Takara Tomy Transformers Movie The Best MB-EX Laserbeak - the pink Bumblebee from Dark of the Moon! Check them out mirrored below.

Pink makes the svulpt look more evil.

It's really tempting me to want to buy it. That pink Bee is evil yet sweet

So, seeing that list of upcoming MB figures, I'm interested in that Megatron. I wonder if it will be the voyager from the first movie? Remoulded to loose the ice effect? I'd hope so, I'd get it in that case.

News Credits: 6188 · by **Va'al** » Wed Sep 06, 2017 5:45 am

As part of the story about new Takara Tomy Transformers toys from their Legends line (covered here), the same image from Loopaza Megastore also includes several new Movie The Best figures - redecos of previously released Transformers figures in at least one of the two markets.

The list we have below includes the following:

MB-12 Autobot Jazz
MB-13 Bonecrusher
MB-14 Megatron
MB-15 Lockdown
MB-16 Jetfire
MB-17 Optimus Prime Revenge Version
MB-18 War Hammer Bumblebee
MB-19 Hound
MB-20 Nemesis Prime

This list brings emotions ranging from happy to sad to confusion....

Based on prices, what can we assume?
3500 Deluxe, 5000 Voyager, 8000 Leader? , 10,000 Leader, 15,000 Leader... +?

From there, what can we assume?

MB-12 Autobot Jazz 3500 - Deluxe. Movie 1 mold. Why not the vastly superior HA mold?? They did it for Soundwave!

MB-13 Bonecrusher 3500 - Deluxe. Movie 1 mold. Rare these days so it's a good choice.

MB-14 Megatron 8000 - Starting to get dicey. Looking at the previous MB figure prices, no Voyagers were priced this high, so I gotta assume Leader. And there's only 3 Megs in that size class. Won't be TLK, ROTF has had multiple releases, so I'm betting on it being Movie 1.

MB-15 Lockdown 3500 - Deluxe. Pretty unexciting.

MB-16 Jetfire 10,000 - ROTF Leader obviously. Interested to see the deco.

MB-17 Optimus Prime Revenge Version 15,000 - I'm at a loss for this one. The only way to justify that price point for me is if it were Leader Prime + Upgrade. Like Jetwing. But that was DOTM. And Buster Prime was DOTM too wasn't it?

MB-18 War Hammer Bumblebee 3500 - Deluxe something. Too many Bee molds for me to speculate which one.

MB-19 Hound 5000 - Voyager AOE? Again, why rerelease a mold (TLK) that's still on shelves?

MB-20 Nemesis Prime 8000 - Leader.... AOE or TLK molds in TLK Nemesis colors. Best guess.

Thoughts?

News Credits: 2 · by **Insurgent** » Wed Sep 06, 2017 7:31 am

I believe Buster Prime was the first takara release of the rotf leader Prime, for their rotf line. Though I could be mistaken. It was the first time we saw the gas canisters turning into his guns. Makes sense for it to be ROTF mould for the compatibility with Jetfire.

If the megatron is a leader, then it will be movie 1. Has to be. And I will not be interested. Oh well.

I would guess the nemesis will be the tlk in nemesis colours, with the remoulding on the back pack. I imagine that version would gather more interest in owning than the AOE version.
