We first saw the figure up close and personal at Toy Fair 2010 in February. Two months later the figure has gotten into the hands of Transformers Customiser frenzyrumble. He's posted a video on Youtube and goes over as much as you can in a review. Feel free to check out what he has to say in Part 1 and Part 2 of his review below.

Looks like a yellow pile of slag that makes Ultimate BB seem like a solid deal.

So this makes what, five size classes for movie Bumblebee? Legends, Deluxe, Human Alliance, this, and Ultimate?

This figure just doesn't interest me in any way. We have so many BB figures running around, I just don't see the purpose of another one. Even a Leader Class.

To quote someone who posted a comment on this vid:

Looks like a fantastic toy. If that toy had been the first Bumblebee toy released in the line, people wouldn't be so overly critical. It seems a lot of "fans" lost the ability to appreciate toys for what they are. Thanks for showing us the features.

The toy looks prety frekn gosh damn sweet to me! I'd buy it. And Im definately going to use that Bumblebee for my stopmotion!

"If that toy had been the first Bumblebee toy released in the line, people wouldn't be so overly critical."

That is exactly the point. Since it wasn't released first, people ARE going to be overly critical.

Previously I said I might buy this if I saw it on sale. Now I think I won't buy it even then.

I really wish they would take out the batteries when doing these reviews on figs that have sounds ..Like when Frenzy did the Devastator review and he wouldn't shut up...

The BB character has been done to death..The reasoning behind this figure baffles me..i guess with all of the little gimmickls, the sliding face shield and the converting arm cannon, maybe they are trying to head some of the 3rd party accesory companies off before they can make it themselves..Either way, pass..With botcon coming up all figure purchases have been put on hold, especially movie figs..
