    I remember the episode City of Steel, where Optimus has been rebuilt (minus an arm), and he bends down to hug Bumblebee... that image above of him standing next to MP-10 reminds me of that episode, and think it will be a good cartoon (and original toy) scale.
    I think it probably looks small for people who are more familiar with the modern Bumblebees, which are leadership/secondary characters who are "big" in size, stature and importance in the show/movie/toyline.

    Packed in with a similar sized exosuit makes it equal up to the value of the other Autobot cars, and I'm really excited to get these.

    The transforming exosuit is worth it alone for collectability

    I was actually going to buy the licensed Japanese one before this was announced.

    Hmmm this one looks nice too. How much is it supposed to retail for?

    Hmmm... looks like it was never released. It didn't make it before they went bankrupt. So it is good that MP Bumblebee comes with one.

    Their items were very expensive, so this would have been the only one I would have bought.

    (I didn't realise that they went bankrupt, because recent figures like Alpha Trion look very similar to CM's Headmaster humans in terms of sculpting, to me at least.)

    or the episode where they were brainwashed while in the recharging chambers - one shot left of the fix, so bumblebee had to go in against a rampaging optimus.

    in an article, it basically said their items were too expensive and didn't sell well in Japan and they couldn't get rid of their old stock and were left with massive debts.
