    So is he worth opening?

    I mean I busted Prime out of the packaging, had a play with him and all that. Is there enough difference with BB to warrant opening him up to experiment with him or just consider him to be pretty much like Prime?

    Hmmmm, good question that one. I would say yes, mainly to see a better version of the concept than Prime. However, since it is mainly just a assemble/reassemble sort of toy it is very similar. Plus the robot mode is not all that "Bumblebee" looking, but to actually have the thing change modes is good.

    I think I would have preferred it better if Bumblebee was the one that couldn't transform and Prime could, because overall, I think Prime is more spectacular.

    So in answer to your question, I think a very weak "yes."

    Reminds me of the 80s Centurions toys - a core human that you could plug on armour and weapons depending on the mission.

    He looks heaps better than his Prime counterpart.

    Maybe they practised on Prime & put all their refinement into BB.

    That's why i'd like to see the concept continue (albeit one or two figures per line like they did here) as I believe there is potential for it to be something good.
