    That 3-pack bumblebee set was my first introduction to transformers. Sadly though, all three were broken or damaged in some way. Animated was the one I struggled to convert since the window panels kept popping off the ball joints. The movie Bee I actually enjoyed converting, however the head mold (which I loved) was never great about staying on the body and constantly popped off. Classics bee was my favorite mold, and my favorite to convert (as it was the easiest), but over time the clear plastic for the chest became brittle from overuse and I found my favorite little Bumblebee in 2 pieces. He lived a good life, and how full of adventures it was. I’ll miss him much. That was the greatest box set I’ve ever gotten.

    Personally I like both of these molds for what they offer. So while I have put the newer Bee/Cliffjumper/Hubcap in my main displays, the Cliffjumper version of the older mold is with my headcanon transdimensional crew as homage to him being the version that got dragged into the Shattered Glass universe originally.

    One thing I always liked about the partsforming bit of that Cliffjumper mould is that the "shield" can be used either as a "strap" shield or a center-grip. Just some nice playability, I think.
    The price was high for what he is, but at the time he was too much fun to fiddle with and he was adorable so I didn't care.

    Still really like the Generations Bee. Despite some missing articulation I feel this and the Voyage Prime were the best of that eras G1 updates. No weapons with the original release but the hand holes allowed him to use the oversized guns from I think it was DOTM Laserbeak which was a really good look for him. As for the MP Bumblebee Movie for the price at the time It's a really good display representative of the character with fantastic articulation, metal bits and a really convoluted transformation scheme which miraculously holds together solidly in both modes.

    Your RTS is actually misstransformed. You have to lift the clip for the jetpack at the back of the car so it reveals some indentations where you can connect the torso armature. That gets rid of the hoodie look, makes the torso more solid and allows the head to actually plug in, but gets rid of the butterfly joint too.

  • @pauld3694
    @pauld3694 Рік тому +2

    I've got both figures (albeit the original versions of both).
    I really like Classics Bee; I was thrilled that Bumblebee was finally being shown some respect. Mind you, at the time we only had the G1 minibot, the Pretender version and the Action Master version; and done re releases (plus perhaps some figurines and maybe non transforming figures).
    But bot mode I think is great; the only thing I hate is those doors on the arms. Car mode I think is excellent as well, no complaints. I too would prefer having a gun instead of that jetski backpack.
    Funny thing; this Bee got me back into collecting after I decided to give it up. Just be careful of the plastic of that windshield; after about 17 years, mine is cracking a bit.
    As fir Netflix, he's a good little bot, and I actually think he's the right size for what Bumblebee should be. And let's be honest, those G1 minibots were super deformed. Bumblebee would have been bigger than that. But I wish they could have stripped out some of the gun, given him just one basic gun, and knocked maybe $5-$10 off figures like him. He's too big to be Legends scale, but not substantial enough to be a true Deluxe.
    And having both Bee and Cliffjumper, I think Cliffjumper is the better figure. It feels that by giving Bee different parts and such, some tolerances are a bit too tight. I sometime struggle transforming him out if fear of breaking him.
    But all in all, I prefer Classics, but Netflix is my display version due to scale.

    Classics Bee was the toy that got me back into collecting as an adult. I will defend it to the ends of the Earth.
    It's recognizable as Bumblebee, but they tried something new with his design (which is why I'm cautiously optimistic about the recently-revealed Volvo Optimus), and it just oozes personality! And it has INTERIOR SEATS! And they get used in bot mode! That alone is a huge plus in my book. It's that Alternators DNA I feel, and I am HERE for that.
    I have Earthrise Cliffjumper and Shattered Glass Goldbug, and frankly, I think those are enough. I don't mind Netflix Bee and would like to get a VW mold that's not from the movie line, but I wasn't excited enough to go and pick out Cliff's remold. I paid my price of admission, and I'm not excited enough to get back in line to get on the ride again. It's........ fine.

    I'll be honest, I do agree with those who hate the ER Cliffjumper mold for partsforming. I mean, they really put funds into making Cliffjumper's massive cannon seen only once in G1's first episode that can break into parts to make him look like he's skiing seen in only one scene in one episode but had no funds to not make the whole back partsform, which you lose that rear and now you can never complete the alt mode again.
    They could've just put the funds they put into the cannon/skii thing into the back to not partsform and I highly doubt anyone would care if Cliffjumper had a generic gun mold. If they wanted the skiis and cannon, then let a 3rd party make an upgrade kit there.
