Does Encore Bumblebee have the same head mold as TFC Bumblebee? I do believe TFC #12 Minibots is pricey as the Bumblebee that came with it had a more accurate head mold. I recently bought a TFC Minbots for a good price and it doesnt come with Bumblebee but I already have the Encore Minibots so I just wanted to check if its the same. If anyone knows or has both of them can you please check and let me know thanks.

yes the Encore minibots have the same bumblebee - with the G1 accurate face. Ive seen a loose booktype early reissue of minibots ( which is always ridiculously priced) and have bought the Encore release so I know they have the same Bbee mold and same facial wise - G1 accurate face

Encore has more paint apps; blue eyes, silver bumpers & headlights and red taillights.
TFC has black bumpers and unpainted eyes, head & tail lights.

TFC's the most cartoon-like though. The relative lack of paint apps makes the car mode more show-like (lazy animators :p). However TFC Bumblebee's eyes are silver (like the rest of the face), whereas Encore Bumblebee has blue eyes. Wahahahahaha! Overall the Encore one looks nicer though.
