The latest but certainly not last Bumblebee figure to come down the pipeline is a re-release of Battle Ops Bumblebee by Takara as part of the Masterpiece line. Thanks to Japanese online store e-Hobby we can now see more clearly the spruced-up version that Japanese fans will be treated to.

Those light up gimmicks look pretty nice!

They do look nice but I'm bored to tears of Movieverse Prime and Bumblebee. I have one of each and that's totally enough for me.

Oh, I agree.

I have no Bumblebees, and that's totally enough for me.

For me there's no need for a Bumblebee that large either. Deluxe suits me just fine... all 4 of them. ;)

1 for me and that's animated. Might get WFC BB, but I hate movie BB. They gave him too much screen time IMHO!

Wow...i guess I'm the only one who collects the different molds, despite them being all the same alt-mode. My wife is forever saying "Don't you already have that one?" when I get yet another BB figure lol.

Let's see-off the top of my head: 2007 Ultimate BB, 07 old style camaro, 07 concept camaro, Battlefield BB, rotf BB, Battle blades BB, Gravity Bots BB, Legends class 07 and rotf, Human Alliance BB, and I just got off ebay Trans-Scanning BB(which is awesome btw-I'll be getting trans-scan optimus too)... so 11 in all? Each is a different mold so I can justify it to myself, I'll get the Battle-Ops BB but when it goes on sale jsut like Ultimate BB did. Don't feel like spending that much for another BB.

Edit: Only counting Movie-verse, not counting Animated and WFC which I of course also have lol

I'm in a similar spot as you. :P I've sort of taken up to collecting the Bees...But only deluxe class (though this big one looks like it might be the one different for me...but then again, more movie next year...will mean another bigger and better Bee...).

I also, unfortunately didn't start doing it 'til that "Legacy of Bumblebee" three-pack, so I don't have the oldest movie Bee's...no older camaros, for instance.


I think this figure looks good...But I'm still not a fan of electronics (One reason I don't like Leader class), so probably a pass for me.... :(

Not major enough + Hasbro's not caring for scale = fat chance.

Tell that to Brawl... :XD:

At least Blackout they could've repainted as Grindor for the second film. :BANG_HEAD:

Agreed. I have no use for this at all although I do think it is pretty interesting and it looks amazing. In fact, I think Hasbro/Takara has done a very good job with this figure-the gimmicks are appropriate and the appearance in both modes is startlingly good. Still a pass though.

I got the Hasbro version of this guy a few days back and I love him dearly! I'm not a huge fan of Movie Bumblebee, but this guy is so detailed and has so many gimmicks its great!
One of the best things about him however is that he looks perfect next to Deluxe Arcee, Chromia and Ravage. It's good to finally be able to display them without them just looking freakishly huge. Now I display this guy with them while the HA Bumblebee can look good next to all the other movie-verse figures, which I like a lot.

Not going to get the Masterpiece version however, the guy was expensive enough and this paint job just doesn't seem different enough to consider a purchase...
