What do people think of the botcon exclusive bugbite

I went up to the botcon website today and under the figure preview part of the website they had bug bite. I really do like his paint job even though he is just a repaint of bubblebee and cliffjumper. I wonder what other people think of bug bite.

He is my least favortite figure of the set.

Mainly that is because he is another Bumblebee repaint, but I also feel that they should have at least used a different head to set the character apart more.

The paint scheme I could get used to; maybe after I see it in person I'll like it more.

Agreed. I wish his head was sculpted differently.

I think he's plenty cool. Love those swirly purple decals things. I would even pick him up if he was a wide-release.

The reason I like his paint job is because I beleave that it is a biohazard symbol.

Works for me. Just as the original Bugbite was a Bumblebee repaint, so is this. What did you expect? >.>

I like it.
It would've blown if it was JUST a white repaint with that SAME head... but they used the purple decepticon symbol you'd expect from the first Bugbite and added a tribal dealie in the same color.

And white and purple is a cool color scheme.

Aside from resculpting the head, I'm not sure what would've made it better.

I actually really don't like the tribal tattoo.

I think that those stupid designs have become mistakenly synonymous with "cool", which they are not.

Otherwise, I have no real problems with the toy except the fact that he's kind of boring for a Botcon toy.

I'm not getting the set for starters, but don't take this as jealosy or any of that bitterness as a result, becuase it isn't, but I think he sucks.
