Just two pics for now i dont want to reveal too much , what i wil tell u is that he is perfectly transformable , and those hand attachements work as good as his original arms , which are still needed to be swapped out with these in order for transformation to a camaro ......... i also have used a gloss finish on the paint so it adds to his pale yellow mold color he came in , check back soon =)

[Sainte]

just adding these pics for reference point of how different it looks from original and how close it looks to the movie version [/img]

[Malicron]

Wow, great job. I wanted to switch the heads, but didn't want to risk either of my 08 BB's.

[Bumblebee-otch]

do RRs use the same ball and joint sockets as 09BB?

[Sainte]

NO THE BALL IS DIFFERENT RR have much biger ones , but that isnt a problem , i took my dremel tool , cut the ball of the chest of RR bee and drilled a hole in it , its rubber it expands a little and then u can superglue it right on top of the ball on the Deluxe bee's it shud wear on top of it like a complete cover , let it dry and pop the RR head on it and u r done.

[Sainte]

the arm sockets are a little tricky i had a cliffjumper classic i was keeping it for spare parts , and his shoulder joints were perfect to attach whole RR bee's arms , but you have to cut out a lot of rubber form the arms of the RR bee then trim the shoulder joints to epoxy glue in them nicely so they dont look odd , but with epoxy glue for rubber once they r attached u cannot seperate the arm with the shoulder join , and they fit perfectly on the deluxe bees should balls . complete articulation.

and they come off easy too , so when u need to turn it back into camaro take the head off and the arms and place the original arms in place and voila camaro mode =)

[Sainte]

bump : i have my megz and beez both on ebay at the moment lookin good so far with bids and # of watchers =)

[calbob]

when you transform him, do you have to switch the arms back??

[Sainte]

yes u install the original arms back because they form the car top ...... but its not really a problem cause they switch pretty easily , it wud be a problem for someone who switched to car mode to robot mode atleast 15 - 20 times a day , lol

[Malicron]

it wud be a problem for someone who switched to car mode to robot mode atleast 15 - 20 times a day , lol

This fig's not for me, then.

[An_de]

Well then from where does the car roof come from?

You have to realize most customs are more collectors additions and not for regular toy use , i usually keep my toys in robot mode , and hardly transform them once a week , i just dont play with them all the time i am 30 yrs old =P ..... my customs are made from collectors point of view , and not rugged use , also there is no customizer here who can guarantee you that the paint will stay the same while u transform the crap out of a customized paint job ..... i have 2 bumble bees and 2 of each transformer in my collection , i keep one in alt mode and one in robot mode that way i dont wear the joints or just overall age the toy too fast ........

for An_De , the top comes from the hands which fold behind him making the top roof of the car , when they are put back on , so this Bee has 2 sets of Hands one for robot mode and one pair for car mode =P i hope that makes sense.

compare and see pics below from hsi original look and hands to the new customized ones .
