Bullies at school took this bumblebee from me when I was 11 yrs old 😪😪 I remember the teacher took it from them a week after and I never saw it again , this was my favorite bumblebee
There were a few interesting differences in the molding of the two Bumblebees. While the Nitro Bumblebee did not have a painted plate, his plate actually has numbers molded into it whereas the original DOTM Bumblebee didn't have numbers on his plate - just a painted plate. And Nitro has sculpted Autobot symbols near his doors - unfortunately, they're really tiny and just not painted. I've been debating getting a second Nitro while they're still on sale for $5 a pop at Family Dollar to paint.
There is another nice little trick hidden in this figure's molding. Look at his forearms in robot mode - you'll see that he actually has his plasma cannon from the movie molded right into his forearms. ^_^
I have a question Optibotimus, have you got the Wal-Mart exclusive movie Bumblebee? I'm somewhat confused by the packaging. On the back, his chest and shoulders have this orange sunburst fade that makes the robot mode look great, but when I opened the figure and transformed him, he was his normal yellow and black. The reason why I asked is because I'm wondering if it's always like that, or if it's just my version.
I dont know why but i really love this figure. He looks so... different i love the stealth force look so ill probably buy 2. Great review man cant wait to see more DOTM reviews.
TheDarkOne Gaming if you have the original dotm deluxe bumblebee, you can take the arms off of the original, take off nitro bees arms and put the originals arms on nitro it still transforms nicely i did it on mine
One thing I didn't like about him is that he has a huge gap in his torso. I found that I can rotate the door kibble, unfold them and bring them under his arm pit, either door or wheel first (I like door first so the wheels pop up from behind his shoulders). It hides the gap away and I think it makes him look tighter. Its not the usual 'door wing' look but I like it better.
the thumbs on yous have the ends cut off i was fortunate to have this guy and crankases hands fully intact. l love your way of transforming him i am gonna start doing it like that. great video.
On my movieverse shelf i have this version of Bee as the robot mode, and the TFTM "concept camaro" deluxe Bee as the vehicle mode. Ps, i have no TF Prime bee, but this guy fits in nicely with all the Prime deluxe figures, and if you didnt know the show well youd think it was part of the line.
Awesome review man! this version of Bumblebee looks kool.. a completely different Transformation than all the orginal Bumblebee's lol..if i see him im def. pickin him up! :)
When I was a kid I didn't like this figure and it was a mistake that I got him. I thought I bought on eBay the regular version. Always be sure you are buying the right thing, but that being said, I love this figure and I'm happy I got the wrong one.
I Used To Not Like My Voyager Fire Burst Optimus Prime (DOTM) So Much, But Now... Well... BASICALLY IT'S RESPONSIBLE FOR GETTING ME CYBERFIRE BUMBLEBEE (DOTM) SO YEAH I'm Happy I Got It
hey paul, I was thinking of picking up a few Deluxe Class figures from wave 2, I want Topspin, Sideswipe, Nitro Bumblebee and perhaps the Walmart Exclusive Deluxe Optimus prime. Do you suggest I not pick up some of these figures? I've seen Peaugh's review of Sideswipe and well his video's dont help aswell as yours do. So if you can please get Sideswipe and Review him. Thanks Paul. :)
the rear bumper os compleetly different in that area thats supose to be black, the exhost tips are different on the new one and theres a negative impresion mold in the midle of it
Which of the bees do u recomend more from dotm idk which one to get cause the leader looks cool but iam picky of scale sense he is justs big so i need to pick between the deluxes?
I traded the Nitro Bee's weapon for Mudflap's. This weapon is weirdly identical to Skid's. Switching them and giving Bee Mudflap's 'Bumblebee axe thing ala Battle Blades' really makes Bee and the twins look great.
@Slayershoop do the creator of the first transformer anime is also the one who creates all transformer animes????? coz i'm wondering why do they have to create a different version of bee???
I just bought 1 and i have to agree with paul, the only thing that is not good with this bumblebee is the lack of risk articulation. Same thing with the battleblades bumblebee
@mikoji123 Well, bumblebee in G1 was a lot different, and Hot Rod was supposed to be the kiddie character, well for the movie and 3rd season at least, and Hot Shot is the kiddie character for the Unicron Trilogy. So basically movie Bee and Hot Shot are the same kind of character.
@Slimshadow457 i agree. i'd be jumping with joy if hasbro decides to remake all characters from animated series to "Bay-formers" version...example: Animated Lockdown to Movie Transformer Lockdown-Bay version...that Bay version Lockdown looked very wicked cool, dont you think so?
I also have drift from aoe and I keep his 2 little blades on the roof/backpack of this bee like 2 little yandu arrows from guardians of the galaxy vol.2
I really like this figure in both modes but like you can't stand the arms! However, I took the Deluxe Class DOTM Bumblebee's arms off of him and stuck him on Nitro Bumblebee and it looks a whole lot better, but you can't transform him is the only downfall. Which defeats the purpose of calling it a transformer, but if you don't mind just having him as a display piece on the shelf then yeah it looks way better than the arms it came with.
Finally! I've always wanted a movie Bumblebee with his wheels actually inside of his feet!!! FINALLY!
Bullies at school took this bumblebee from me when I was 11 yrs old 😪😪 I remember the teacher took it from them a week after and I never saw it again , this was my favorite bumblebee
I'm so glad that if I had that figure, I didn't bring it to school at all.
I brought my other transformers in school,I am too good in hiding my toys because no-one knows that I brought it they will only know if I show it
My bumblebee was taken away from my dumb teacher since grade 1
makes me wonder if the teacher still has it
@@trickyz3609 your dumb teacher is ugly and your teacher will be in jail😂😂😂😂😂😂😡😡😡😡😡
Optibotimus logic: Transforms Bumblebee, Talks about chili's.

I've been debating getting a second Nitro while they're still on sale for $5 a pop at Family Dollar to paint.
this is actually my favorite version of bumblebee cause his feet don't have those skinny ankles that were very annoying
through?
threw*
Throw HIM away, and make sure the garbage bag is extra durable
I really love his vehicle mode. MAN! its really good to touch it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Akhdan Viditama Yeah, I'm with you!
If you didn't notice the front grill is actually more accurate to the movie that the first deluxed
Intresting thing, Michael Bay has actually said that the weapon forms are based off of the Stealth Force figures.
There is another nice little trick hidden in this figure's molding. Look at his forearms in robot mode - you'll see that he actually has his plasma cannon from the movie molded right into his forearms. ^_^
A bumblebee figure I actually like. Finally! Thanks for the good look, Paul.
My Nitro Bumblebee's left leg falls off a lot, so I have to fix that
How you fix it
Use a bit of glue. And move the joint every half a minute, as to not let the glue freeze the joint.
it may be because i actually have the actual toy in front of me, but the paint on the head sculpt makes him look adorable
I have a question Optibotimus, have you got the Wal-Mart exclusive movie Bumblebee? I'm somewhat confused by the packaging.

whoa, it's the return of pluggable kibble! way to go hasbro
I dont know why but i really love this figure. He looks so... different i love the stealth force look so ill probably buy 2. Great review man cant wait to see more DOTM reviews.
The one thing I hate about this bee, *_HiS_* *_fReAkInG_* *_aRmS_* !!!! are hideous
TheDarkOne Gaming You do have a point there.
TheDarkOne Gaming if you have the original dotm deluxe bumblebee, you can take the arms off of the original, take off nitro bees arms and put the originals arms on nitro it still transforms nicely i did it on mine
Ashimus Productions I figured that switching the arms would work fine, thanks for the tip.
Shan ali ur welcome

That was my second Bumblebee figure I should know how to transform him but you forgot to mention that the shoulder pads can move
Poop Lord no they can't.
On my movieverse shelf i have this version of Bee as the robot mode, and the TFTM "concept camaro" deluxe Bee as the vehicle mode.
Ps, i have no TF Prime bee, but this guy fits in nicely with all the Prime deluxe figures, and if you didnt know the show well youd think it was part of the line.
Nitro Bumblebees weapon is actually DOTM Deluxe class Skids Mechtech weapon, but re-painted.
I might pick up this guy if I get the chance.
"Make kitties and puppies happy by clicking here to subscribe!"
Dammit, you know my weakness!
lol
Uh oh bee is sportin' the butterfly doors haha. Love the back end of the vehicle mode I think that's worth a buy right there.
The only one closest to the actual DOTM Bee is the one from wave 1, becasuse it has the spoiler. We could just paint in the missing black.
which would you consider i rather get ? the original deluxe DOTM bumblebee or nitro bumblebee ? i'm really having trouble deciding
Awesome review man! this version of Bumblebee looks kool.. a completely different Transformation than all the orginal Bumblebee's lol..if i see him im def. pickin him up! :)
@optibotimus are you get some prime toy & reveiw them when they come out?
@optibotimus Just a little question...why won't you review leader Bumblebee? What makes it so crappy, in you opinion?
do u know that nitro bee is triple
When I was a kid I didn't like this figure and it was a mistake that I got him. I thought I bought on eBay the regular version. Always be sure you are buying the right thing, but that being said, I love this figure and I'm happy I got the wrong one.
I Used To Not Like My Voyager Fire Burst Optimus Prime (DOTM) So Much, But Now... Well... BASICALLY IT'S RESPONSIBLE FOR GETTING ME CYBERFIRE BUMBLEBEE (DOTM) SO YEAH I'm Happy I Got It
Hey paul, when you do reviews, do you write scripts for wat ur gonna say?
If we could only get either DOTM Regular deluxe Bumblebee, or Nitro Bumblebee, which would you recommend?
I'll get him, but I wonder if you can switch the arms between the DOTM Bumblebees
Are the dark grey panels on the doors textured like the hood stripes?
hey paul, I was thinking of picking up a few Deluxe Class figures from wave 2, I want Topspin, Sideswipe, Nitro Bumblebee and perhaps the Walmart Exclusive Deluxe Optimus prime. Do you suggest I not pick up some of these figures? I've seen Peaugh's review of Sideswipe and well his video's dont help aswell as yours do. So if you can please get Sideswipe and Review him. Thanks Paul. :)
@optibotimus in your opinion which one is better nitro or regular bumblebee
One side of my bumblebees front was completely yellow and not painted at all besides the grey part
Do you know when the leadfoot Deluxe is comming out?
would you suggest cyberfire, nitro or normal bumblebee?
Ajay Jose Either is fine.
Hey Paul, in your honest opinion whats the figure to get on the 16th you think?
I wanted to see size comparisons!
the rear bumper os compleetly different in that area thats supose to be black, the exhost tips are different on the new one and theres a negative impresion mold in the midle of it
Thanks man. I needed this review and tutorial, because I have that figure now.
Which of the bees do u recomend more from dotm idk which one to get cause the leader looks cool but iam picky of scale sense he is justs big so i need to pick between the deluxes?
I have this version....still happy to this day 😊
3:35 i did'nt get those guns in the set! :(
I think that's because these 4 guns belong to the deluxe class Topspin figure.;)
Shan ali I know now. This is an old comment...
I have both of those Bumblebees.
hey optibotimus, wats the best bumblee boy toy out there?
Is the jet thing on his legs for dashing/ for a boost?
can you take the arms from the original DOTM deluxe Bumblebee and put them on this?
@optibotimus you're awesome and is that your real voice in the video or is it autotuned or something
If you have green, white and red paint also with topspins weapons you can have a weaponized Roabuster
Do you ever paint them when they are missing details?
hey paul, are you getting leader Class Bumblebee?
hey optibotimus are you going to do a review on the target exclusive bb with the cybertronian cymbols all over him and he's painted gold?
It is a more simple version of a leader class (bumblebee) of that time, I though I'm about to get it, or at least take a look at it. Nice review.
Coulnt you pop the arms off of the other deluxe and pop them on this one? :)
Vehicle mode looks less techy cybertronian and more of a modernized version of Doc browns time machine. Now that would be an awesome custom.
one cool thing about these DOTM toys is :
NO MORE MISSILE LAUNCHING GIMMICKS!! YEY~~!!! (thus no more "crap, i lost/misplaced the missile!!")
I traded the Nitro Bee's weapon for Mudflap's. This weapon is weirdly identical to Skid's. Switching them and giving Bee Mudflap's 'Bumblebee axe thing ala Battle Blades' really makes Bee and the twins look great.
Those other guns are in dotm Tospin
Syeed Ahmad Well it would be awesome if this DOTM Deluxe Nitro Bumblebee figure had those guns as well.
you can change the parts right????optibotimus?
@obtibotimus when ever I got my nitro bumblebee I found two small autobot symbols on both sides of the front tires.
You also didn't point out the fact that the nitro actually has numbers in the license plate
Can you get this baby up to 88 mph?
also i saw that u did a review of regular bee, can u swap the arms? mainly because i really like the body of this bee but...those arms!!!
@Slayershoop do the creator of the first transformer anime is also the one who creates all transformer animes????? coz i'm wondering why do they have to create a different version of bee???
@optibotimus do you have a window open im hearing alot of birds chirpin.
@optibotimus nitro bb actually has engraved autobot symbols at the back of the front fender.
What did u do with bumblebee
actualy nitro does have the autobot sybmols on both doors, but theyre like battle blades optimus, small and barely noticable
I just bought 1 and i have to agree with paul, the only thing that is not good with this bumblebee is the lack of risk articulation. Same thing with the battleblades bumblebee
I think he's really good.
does it have a battle mask?
How do you take this all the way apart?
Where did you get it?
@mikoji123 Well, bumblebee in G1 was a lot different, and Hot Rod was supposed to be the kiddie character, well for the movie and 3rd season at least, and Hot Shot is the kiddie character for the Unicron Trilogy. So basically movie Bee and Hot Shot are the same kind of character.
@optibotimus I'm guessing you can't transform it anymore, then?
im going get the wreckers. btw any1 know if leadfoot will be a target exclusive?
I just found my Nitro Bumblebee today
@Slimshadow457 i agree. i'd be jumping with joy if hasbro decides to remake all characters from animated series to "Bay-formers" version...example: Animated Lockdown to Movie Transformer Lockdown-Bay version...that Bay version Lockdown looked very wicked cool, dont you think so?
I also have drift from aoe and I keep his 2 little blades on the roof/backpack of this bee like 2 little yandu arrows from guardians of the galaxy vol.2
the doors on nitro bumblebees back can get pushed in right up against the middle of the hood of the car in robot mode thats what i do at least.
Found one complete with pack and extra mechtech wepon for $5 at thrift shop!
Gabest'sChannel You are so lucky!
God i miss the old mech tech transformers toys they where so cool and fun to play with use to have this one cyber fire bumblebee and skids and mudflap
Great review and That weapon does look pretty prime-esque.
do you like transfomers prime and are they making toys from prime
HFTD battleblade bumblebee is still by far the best deluxe mould of bee we have gotten.
could you do a review on deluxe class stealth bumblebee
were did you get this guy
I just dug this up from the old toys container I owned years ago
would you recommend this
NostalgicDouchebag I'm sure Optibotimus would.
did you know that the mechtech weapons could plug in to leader starscream. They fit into mine.
ya im getting him for sure..thanks for sharing botimus
And your right about the weapon reminding you of the one from Transformers Prime.
@optibotimus how come. it cost to much?
hey should i get this bb or the organily one from the dark of the moon line
Hopefully you got this one
I really like this figure in both modes but like you can't stand the arms! However, I took the Deluxe Class DOTM Bumblebee's arms off of him and stuck him on Nitro Bumblebee and it looks a whole lot better, but you can't transform him is the only downfall. Which defeats the purpose of calling it a transformer, but if you don't mind just having him as a display piece on the shelf then yeah it looks way better than the arms it came with.
hey obtibotimus could u possibly do a review for deluxe class crankcase
if so thanks
Why do they call them mech tech ports, they are just standard 5mm holes that were uesed even before mechtech came around
