Nice. Figured it out when you said he shouldn't have existed. Wish I had one. Was thinking that the recent animated Bumblebee would make for an easy retool to give a modern version of him.
I remember seeing these as a kid in the 80’s. Can’t remember if it was a red bumblebee or yellow cliff jumper, but it was not accurate to the cartoon, so my brother and I didn’t want to get them. It was at a store called Gregory’s in Mount Holly, NJ. Was like a Walmart before Walmart was a thing. It’s an Ashley’s furniture store now, I think.
I saw a AFA one on Ebay in about 2010 it was MOC, they wanted £1000 for it so I passed. The toy was 100% yellow, but I can't remember what the card back was.
@@ToysareRussyes do keep it protected, because that is amazing ! …. Am not jealous at all! Tim and yourself weren’t exaggerating in terms of how special this is !
Easy! I do sometimes dread these, as it could turn out to be a variant that I wasn't aware of, but would want. Thankfully, I don't really do packaging and have this loose. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Thanks very much for commenting. It’s obvious you understand. As we say yes you can find them loose. In 30 plus years of collecting I’ve only seen 2 other in packaging
@@ToysareRuss The one you have there is the first Ive ever seen. I thought they either simply didnt exist mint boxed . In my experience my only thought was someone possibly had one in a private collection they've never shared publicly. Sort of like the G2 Stunticons that popped up out of nowhere years ago. Cheers man. You have something really special that one. Sort of like a Blue Bachus or Sky Shadow.
@ thanks bud. I’m glad you see the relevance. Oh you might like these as well Transformers generation one Black Shadow review. G1 Japanese 1989 victory exclusive cross former box ua-cam.com/video/c2NBM8lMyAY/v-deo.html
Thought i found one one time i was so excited and hoping.. especially for the price..flipped up the head and it was Hubcap...was still a great lil score tho
congratulations russ thats very greatest best amazing awesomes unboxing ultra rare toys figurine cliffjumper autobot transformers g1. thank you toys are russ have a greatest week god bless
Ya I was right he has been koed too so keep a eye out about that too. I thought with box size your where going to say Mexican prowl. Other canadian flag or canadian pespi optimus prime. Joshua devy and south American variants are pretty hard and that's not counting the oddity items too.
I would agree here in the states that could be true since Ive seen many of them floating around. Lots damaged. Not in 40 years have I ever seen one boxed mint or sealed.
At 4:58. I was stumped before then. Got it when you said something specific. Merry Christmas Russ.

About four minutes in, didn't realize these were as rare as they were, lovely piece~
The last one sealed I saw sell for 20k and that was a few years ago
@@ToysareRusswow. Time for me to save up.
Am so glad you like it mate, couldn't have gone to a nicer guy . Enjoy !
Thanks again! You’re the magician!!

Yellow cliff jumpers were everywhere. This one wasn’t anywhere near as common though
@@ToysareRuss Yeah I don't ever remember seeing any in the UK as a kid.
Love it when Russ gets so excited about a figure he's got his hands on - the enthusiasm is infectious!
Congratulations! I did guess this one. The reseal is flawless!
Yes! Thank you! Tim is a genius
Whooooooooa!
Of course I guessed this one.
Amazing mate.
Happy Xmas and see you in ‘25! 😁
Looks like a Studio Series 86 figure that came out in mass this year… 🐝
Love it!!

Awesome find. Glad you have a lose one too, so you can Transform him.
Definitely! I’ve done a few videos on the loose one. So now I can do a proper more detailed video on him
Incredible find!
On card it must be the rarest g1 figure
Yes I’ve been waiting all day
Can’t believe I actually own one of these!!
5 minutes exactly. Amazing find Russ
Thanks bud.
Wow - now that is awesome ! Well done on getting that, it looks amazing all together ! Definitely a holy grail of g1 collecting
Thanks a bunch! Just need to keep it protected in that case.

Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I knew for you it would be easy pal.
Thanks very much and to you too.
No way!! Thats awesome. I was just looking at one of these but of course no pkg. Mindblown to know one in the wild exist still boxed.

He's not that Rare, I saw about five of them at TFcon, the price on the other hand is a different story.
5 carded examples of these? Never in a million years was there 5 carded versions.
@ToysareRuss no, they were lose. I've only seen a carded one once for sale but I was pretty sure it was KO
4:03
3:40 and its not that rare
