this one was really disappointing, he is like first edition bumblebee's derpy cousin

the automorph for the chest is actually fun and clever, but the end result is a major downgrade. he's really easy to transform though but nothing clips together tightly enough to really be kid friendly to make up for that.

comparitively the first edition is overly complicated and fiddly but at least it looks amazing!

Honestly... if I didn't know any better I'd say TFP RiD Bumblebee was a KO of FE Bumblebee.

Have you tried flipping the hood slightly before opening the shoulders? Helps the head sit a little better. I wish the shoulders were ball jointed so he doesn't look like he's slouching.

Whats with the angry eyes Bumblebee?

man you'd think they would try and improve on the design. That looks bad. Thanks for the comparison pic there. I'll stick with my FE version methinks

Do the doors slip up like wings a bit more or is that all you can get?

I guess Hot Shot is doomed for failure as well in this case...
