Those clear windows really make a difference!
I almost want to buy it now, but I think I'll just wait and get the new car version.

Nice pics! I really don't think this is a bad mold, and I haven't had the problems alot of other people have had with Hasbro's BB. With all the blue accents, this version definitely looks much better, I think I'll grab this one too.

I hope Hasbro makes this one. I doubt it but im gonna hold off for a bit on buying the first mold just in case they do make this one.

I expected nothing less of takara they usualy have the better more sturdy molds.

Nice gallery! I might actually open mine.

I don't have anything against the painted windows '74 Camaro, but I like the clear windows version seen here better. It's odd that Hasbro made Barricade with clear windows, and not Bumblebee. Jazz' windows are something in between.

The paintjob is less than acceptable, that black blob can hardly be mistaken for dirt, and what's with the shiny plastic instead of rubber for the tires? Double thumb down from me. Takara is definitely going down hill with this one. I'll stick with Alternators and Roadbots.

I just sent a email to hasbro informing them about brawl and bumblebees bad transformation flaws and told them they should use the takara version instead of there defective one. Like the will listen but hey i spoke up. Lol today feels like bumblebee day i feal he is becoming my favorite character.

I bought the Wal-Mart Exclusive two pack and I see that Takara gave him the blue missles like on the back of the box than the crappy yellow ones. I don't think I will open the exclusives or the Target Limited Edition Prime, but if Hasbro does secretly release another version like they did with certain TransFormers in the past (Classic Starscream face mold difference) then I will purchase it.

Wow, that Takara version is way better than the Hasbro one. I want it now!!!!!!!

Yeah, he does look way better...maybe I'll import...maybe.

it is ridiculous that they didn't give bumblebee the clear windows/parts/decent paint job - boo HASBRO!

Clear windows are always better. Even Looser Armada SideSwipe looked alright with his head looking out.

I haven't gotten any of ther movie legends yet (but today I did score FAB Prime and the BB/Baricade 2 pack). These are items that aren't going to fly off the shelf. Now that I got the bulk done, I see them as pickings for slow releas weeks.

However they do look better than I thought they would.

BB was my favorite G1 character, and I love these KiddieFormers, but still need the collectors case and 3 of the 2pack sets. BB is one of those sets. But like I said before, it'll happen.

As always Ryan, great work! I wouldn't expect anything less, but what I realy like are the quicklinks with the gallery pics. It leaves me having to ask, are these favored shots of yours?

Either way, thats a very nice touch, Thanks!

Your gonna get a response saying something like...

"Thank you for your intrest. At this moment we cannot discuse these issues, please dump your money in the giant hole in the corner.
Thank You, and be sure to let the big door hit you where the good lord split you, Hasbro"

Yeah, I remembered when I thought stuff like that would help too.

I didn't even notice Cliffjumper until now. Where did he come from!?! Did you do that Ryan, or is this an early arrival for you that we all know is gonan happen anyways? Where's my Skywarp dammit?! Oh, wait.....*looks at Robot Heroes Starscream gallery* Damn you!

Cliffjumper is part of that Wal-Mart exclusive Decepticon Sneak Attack set: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product. ... id=5839305

I think I may have to pick up one of Clear window versions.

Those clear windows really do make the figure look a lot better! Plus, I love the air freshner!
