I got my Transcanning Bumblebee in the other day and I have to say its better (not perfect) than TSOP.

Again, he comes with a core body, protoform parts and Earth mode parts. The core body is exactly the same as Optimus' except the grey plastic is a little darker and blue eyes (Optimus' eyes were orange). Protoform parts are the same too, except a yellow/orange combination instead of blue.



Earth mode.
The earth mde for BB works better than Prime. Why? Because he can Transform!!! Hachaa! Although the robot mode is of course a bit kibbly, its manageable and can still make quite a variety of cool poses. It is very back heavy though. Its carries the "wings" look, although it is done with the fenders insetad of the doors. The Earth face isn't as well done as I would have liked. It looks a little bit off for some reason.




The car mode is pretty good. BB suffers slightly from the "falling off pieces syndrome" that Prime has, but not to the same extent. When transforming it for the first time, I only had one piece fall off and that was somewhere inside the car so I couldn't get to it. At least I can get it into car mode this time!

The colour difference betweent the roof, doors and rest of car is not as bad as it looks. It is really noticable in photos, but to the naked eye it sin't that bad. I must say that I am still a bit dissapointed that its there at all though. Just a touch on the sloppy side if you ask me.

Overall, a better toy than TSOP, but still not the best. Hopefully, if any further ones are done, they can improve more on the concept.
