Both the Legion and Warrior redecos seem to be "Black Knight Bumblebee" toys.
And it kinda looks like the Warrior's deco is based on the mold layout of the Legion's deco.

Still looks cheap as ever though with those yellow wheels. Maybe if Hasbro and Mattel do a merger the toys will become better quality?
Hmmm.

What is the problem with you people? Hasbro can make a black Bumblebee but Takara cant? So anyone in japan who wants one is stuck having to import a Hasbro redeco? For shame!

Haha I got mixed up. I'm stupid. They look the same to me other than the wheels.
Whatever it's a Japan import, let Japan have their fun with it, but I don't really care about that thing.

Because I wanted to share my distaste for this 30th repaint of the same Bumblebee figure.

But it's not, it's a TT release for their public
- separate from the profit-focused ones hasbro used to splurge out, which, by the way, they've gotten much better about within the rid line

No, thats a full on retool, and the alt mode didnt have any deco difference from the original. This is the first figure that is just an actual repaint.

Hey X, Funny thing. when I was in high school I drew up a movie Bumblebee and then copied the image and then colored it in about 15 different color schemes. Your ideas here actually cover all of them
