Me personally, I'd get the VW Bee pack. The cassettes are a neat bonus too.

Personally, I don't think any of these retro garage bumblebees are worth anywhere near $60 each. $20 bucks for any tiny deluxe Studio Series are not happening in my book. skipping most of these.

The Gold editions are very tempting, since im getting the Golden Lagoon sets, but will pass these exclusives colors at $60 when I don't even care for the cassettes.

I feel like there was a missed opportunity making the new versions clear when they could have done matching gold (Linkin Park), Blue (cobalt sentry) black, white, or even dinobot gray, red and gold if going in a new direction.

Still very glad to get these original versions finally. That’s a huge win for hasbro. High props and thanks from this collector. Definite buy. Thank you!!

Great 80s throwback with the packaging. Top notch.
