That looks nice, however all the paint apps in the world wont fix the problems this figs has given people.

After seeing this I think I am going to kick myself for not taking a friend up on an offer he made to get this for me. Oh well.

Could the silver Voyager Megs be a similar release?

Ooh pretty. Happy to be getting one, although I now wish it were the concept version.

I wanna call him "Goldbug", but he's a Camaro...

QFT! Would have been the better one for this repaint.

Nice shine. But an easy pass for me. I don't really like these shiny or battle damage repaints of Bumblebee. Makes the Elita One and Air Raid repaints based on Arcee and Skyblast look like gold.

But the Japs are not getting any of our exclusives (G1 decos, Scouts, etc.), so it's only a fair game.

In three words... I WANT THAT!

What sickens me is that the bumblebee I got didnt even have transparent windows or rockets let alone a kickass paint app like that.

Anybody seen robot mode pics?

That looks great! I though from past phots we've seen that it would just be the regular yellow with some shiny parts here and there NOT completely gold. I love it

Now Japan is just showing off with all these kick ass Bumble Bee exclusives. Share the wealth, Japan!

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

Do you all really want this guy? As in really, really want him? Do you know how much he costs?

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.
