FAQ:
1- Where do you get your figures?
Everywhere. Literally everywhere. Walmart, Target, Toys R Us, Antique Malls, Thrift Stores, Flea Markets, eBay, Amazon, Facebook, Online Forums, Friends, etc. This video details the answer. • FAQ- Where Do I Find/B...
2- Can you review __? Can you make a ___ video?
I do appreciate requests, suggestions, and video ideas, however, I get so many that it's impossible for me to keep track of them. It's okay to ask, but I may not be able to get around to it.
3- Can I have ___?
I do not and will not sell or give parts of my collection to those who simply ask for something in the comments of one of my videos.
4- Can you check out my channel?
Sure. I tend to check out people's channels if they're active on the channel, or seem like they may be interesting. However, I'm very picky on what I subscribe to, and I just don't watch every kind of video just because someone asked me to. Same goes for shout-outs, I cannot fairly shout-out somebody for no reason other than they asked, it would be unfair to anyone else who were to ask and I would be unable to do so. A shoutout from me will not gain you much viewership or subscribers.

I think Hasbro took note of how mad fans were over Prowl and made some changes to the design philosophy for animated. I'm really happy bee has his side smile and prime kissable kissable lips 💋

you know they're gonna release a animated multi-pack and will have no clear plastic

Doubt it

[@TheWatchfulCollector]

I never understood complaints for fake car parts until Animated Bumblebee, his legs feel very wrong for two big reasons. The car feet are inaccurate, small, and I would’ve preferred they used the actual car parts that end up as his heels… which means he can’t use his iconic catchphrase! “WHEELS ON HEELS”

[@directorscarlett1932]

Hear me out: Voyager Hydrodive Bumblebee Voyager Samurai Prowl Bulkhead redeco Leader Wingblade Optimus Prime Voyager Ratchet (between deluxe and voyager size, with his tools and EMP generator)

[@bionabot]

I love that big goofy cartoon head on original

[@theblackheart5027]

If I remember the only reason why they still use clear plastic is because they want the figures to look "premium" which is a load of crap

[@Bmbach]

I also seen the argument,that any figure have Very limited quanity of plastic types. For Bee its Yellow, Black and Clear. When 1 plastic-type-mould doesnt have place, cheaper to make some parts on another, and Clear mould have the most space for that

[@tehuselessguig3138]

​@@Bmbachyup, that's essentially it. they work with 2-3 types/colors of plastic per figure, otherwise the cost of production isn't worth it

[@favorites8651]

Personally, I disagree that the legacy face should be less cartoonish. G1-ification in legacy is how they justify reinterpretations of characters that hold none of the energy of the original. It's how we got legacy prime arcee bulkhead and knockout. Without the head having the original look, it would stray too close to g1 and lose its animated personality. If legacy animated optimus had a g1 head, it wouldn't be right

[@fabiomura08]

I think the problem here, at least for me, is that the head shape clashes too much with the body. They kept the head very cartoon accurate, in terms of shape I mean, while the torso, arms and legs are just... blocks. The Legacy Optimus doesn't have this problem at all, while yeah he's more G1-ified you still can recognize the cartoon shapes in every part of his body. Same with Prowl, although he tends to be more G1 the design they gave him is coherent from the top of the head to the bottom of the feet. But this Bumblebee? It just doesn't flow as well, it almost looks like as they ripped the head from one of the old Animated toys and popped it on a generic body.

[@DragoonMS]

The original Animated Bumblebee seems pretty solid, unlike the vast majority of the line that had the dumb design decision to have clear plastic at critical joint components (ex.: Swindle).

[@Nemesis_Prime666]

Nice to see you doing a review on these I was thinking about getting the legacy one

[@OptimusMonk01]

you can... turn the stingers around

[@soniccooldude54]

Recently got this guy and the first thing i did is paint up the icky clear windows in a matte finish acrylic black. Looks so much better, especially in car mode!

[@sukmykrok3388]

THIS is the comparison I need to see! I have the original and still can't justify getting him a second time.

[@Kirohan]

I actually still have that activators bumblebee! except hes missing an arm and hes very wobbly plus the red paint on the siren chipped lol

[@bondage8134]

The newer ones will never beat the classics imo

[@King_Shockwave_]

I love animated. Nice video man!

[@matthewjoyner1595]

I have a love/hate relationship with the transparent plastic on transformers. It’s basically the last thing that we have that original Transformers all had. All the G1 stuff had diecast metal, screws holding them together, rubber tires, spring-loaded missile launchers, chrome all over the place, light and sound gimmicks. And clear plastic for all the windows. All kinds of things that make the toys look super good and functional in alt mode. The transparent windshield made it so that if you were just looking at it, you might not even know that it was a Transformer. They fit right in with other die cast metal cars you might have in the 80s. All that stuff is gone now. I am really not sure if it’s intentional or not, but clear windshield really are the last of those little details. But I do agree that it’s a huge breakage issue and it needs to go away.

[@speeddemon5339]

I personally think the legacy version is pretty good, and it’s the only Animated Bumblebee that someone can buy for cheap.

[@ThatIckyGuy]

I bought the new Bumblebee because my old one is falling apart and I'm quite fond of Animated Bumblebee, but I think he's overpriced for his size. However, as you mention, the engineering is great for the price. I can forgive the price for the size because he is a much better figure for his size than I expected.

[@LIMITLESS2774]

1:54 i had the bootleg of activator bee and ratchet and even a prime figure

[@jaredjameson3707]

While I generally like clear plastic, I really do agree it was way too transparent. My ideal is clear inserts back painted in metallic to keep depth while concealing junk, but imagining future chug with a 5 pack Wheeljack type deco doesn’t do well for me 😭. His left shoulder isn’t fully pinned on my copy, so it end up flopping, that combined with some weird gnarling on the joint made me fear it would break when I got him, but it’s just loose. But that much gnarling at that size is worrying

[@siegiv.1087]

What annoys me about the new Light Powered Bumba Lumba legacy figure is that it's a retool of another figure while the generations Punislav and Prowler get new molds. I just don't understand Hasbro's priorities.

[@Jcc2224]

And we still haven't gotten an MP Son-Chu...

[@codynovick5701]

I painted mine to look better like 3 or 4 times now (if I transform him the entire pain job rips off, the plastic is awful for painting and there is no space for a paint layer) but I like him allot more now

[@demonwolf3286]

His chest in the show rotates 180 to form the car

[@Soundwaveiswaybetter]

To be completely honest, I’m just waiting for the wasp repaint in the later months Lol

[@SwedishSeacon]

My guess is that besides that clear plastic probably being cheaper to produce, some clear plastic parts on a figure is probably gang molded with another piece of plastic i.e the Legacy Bumblebee's weapons and the whole windshield

[@yghostest]

i thought the stingers could be just repositioned on his wrists to have a proper look

[@mogooviejake]

Te line was misplaced so than the stripe would match up with the one on his foot

[@Starsaber97]

I actually prefer the look of the clear plastic windows, As the paint windows just looks cheap to me.

[@FreddyFazboy399]

Good old bumblelumba

[@madarauchiha919]

I looked it up cause I was curious and yeah the original definitely has the black stripe on the wrong side. Interesting

[@diurtydantv8061]

The original does not have a fake chest. The figure transformers the same way Bumblebee does in the show. His chest only looks like the windshield of a car, it isnt really. The stripe is only on the wrong side to match the legs.

[@bleppyboo]

People got angy with how Animated Prowl looked for Legacy so, pretty toon accurate Bee head instead!

Love both of these figures animated was one of the things that introduced me to Transformers
