TW Bii is a more appealing BB all round for me even though i don't own it and i have held out for the MP with it been well.. MP BB , i'm with the majority it seems that think this figure is off and this face helps greatly improving it .

The first picture looks nice, but something still seems off. For now, I'll wait until I have BB in hand before I make a decision to get a new face.

yeah its strange... pic #1 looks good, but the other pics from different angles look off. either way, ill need bee in hand before i know if his face needs replacing.

Honestly I don't think we can comment until we see it in the flesh. Fairly often facesculpts look a lot worse on camera than they do in person.

I felt the same way about Hegemon. Those promo pics made his face all weird.

Think that HasTak MP Bumblebee face looks like a obese over weight face. with the double chin and bloated face sculpt.

Don't like the Bumblebee character enough to spend the USA Imports site price of $74.99. I'm going to be buying the KO MP Bumblebee for $35 with free shipping.

This doesn't look right... too simplistic.

The official face is pretty great from what I've seen. Wonder how it would look like with a silver finish.

:???: Far be it tsu for me to tell a fellow member what to or not to buy but this makes me kind of confused.

You are willing to shell out higher that regular SRP for official toys range on 3rd party and yet find the official "expensive" MP BB expensive that you would pay for a KO version of it because of cost??

I thought 3rd party more or less answers the gaps for characters not "officially" released by Tomy/Hasbro?

Honestly, this 3P face looks good, but I don't think it's really necessary. The vanilla faces look good as is, and really get across the friendly look of Bumblebee.

Now if they came up with some new expressions I'd be all in.

I got my MP BB w/ Danny from Lena and its a really nice figure , i will say the perfect BB . I dont have my official untill wednesday but this looks and feels like a final product it even came with the side view mirror which was not pictured .

The face on this in hand has not changed my opinion but it isnt as dreadfull as i thought and i guess i can live with it :D

I think the problem is that the edges round the side arn't visible enough so it makes the face look flat and the fact its grey and not silver .
