Toy Review - RID-15 Bumblebee (Warrior)

[GoktimusPrime]

I agree with Paulbot's conclusion --- the best of the first wave of Warriors, but not worth paying full quid for.

I picked this guy up last night. The vehicle mode captures his show model pretty well but both it and his robot mode are just begging for paint apps. I'm going to have to at least paint on some tail lights and those glowing wheel rims.

Robot mode is a little disappointing. Articulation is ok, but writs swivels and some way of differentiating the feet from his calves would really make him. What I really feel is the lack of additional hinges. Little bits like his wings, car roof kibble, all that stuff that on a normal deluxe would fold up a bit better.

And yes, $30 is too much. $20-23 seems more appropriate.

Best out of the Wave 1 Warriors in my opinion.

Got around to opening him tonight. To be honest a fairly lackluster figure for someone who is the star of the new cartoon. Everything from robot mode to alt-mode to transformation to paint job all comes across as ok-ish. Alt-mode maybe a little above average.


Its a fine figure, but like the cartoon its based on just really uninspiring.

Yep - that's what I paid during the Target toy sale

I paid $20 for mine at Target. Only wanted (needed) this so I have the full set. Probably never open it though.

Got one yesterday. Really impressed with the way this figure was built, relatively few pins, screws mostly mushroom pegs, swivel joints and friction. The waist assembly is a combination of mushroom peg and friction joint

I agree that more paint application would make this a better figure, I also wish that the legs transformed like a prid vehicon.
