And if they released a metallic '08 version, I'd die twice.

We have him here. SGD$120. That's USD$75 to 80!
I don't really know what else they're gonna do to milk this hapless Bumblebee fellow. I can see how stretching it in a million years I might get him if he was the Concept Camaro. But as a 74/76 version? Think I'm going to grit my teeth until he's sold out here, and then breathe a sigh of relief. That money's better spent on Leader Brawl for me.

It the metallic paint apps that attracts people. I would think that most people would have preferred this to have been done with the '08 BB. That puppy would have sold for 2-3 times more than this version would.

I got the one with clear windows and let me tell you it's not really worth the price/trouble. The blue of the missile is not matching the blue of the windows and the legs and back of the doors look awful with all the unpainted clear blue plastic. It just looks good in car mode, that's about it.
