Video Review of the Transformers Prime; Bumblebee figure

[@JacobvsRex]

One of my all time favorites, my only complaint is they should have done a re-paint in yellow on black of this guy instead of the RID!

[@mandisu01]

No TFP FIRST EDITION figures in uk :(

[@TheHorizontalDrew]

I completely agree!

[@msjfarrow8700]

Where does optobotimus buy the toys from

[@Leathurkatt]

I am really glad to see you take the time to show and point out all the fiddly bits such as slots, tabs, hooks, and such and show people how to secure everything together and make it look and work properly, as well as point out the actual design flaws (like the door wing issue). I also like how you are concise and to the point on most things, showing precisely what we need to see and know with these figures. Thank you for that.

[@ecs1_lmw838]

If you push the chest the down the doors can be up

[@ProtoArrow]

I like the colour on the NYC can version, but the face paint of the regular version is nicer.

[@fivestringbassplayr]

the fact they gave him a collapsing backpack just makes this figure awesome

[@DalekWhisperer]

FYI: THe stuff that sticks out in robot mode that does not do much that is used in vehicle mode is called kibble.

[@Batmanfan5]

I ordered mine off Amazon for £39.99 and it is on the way to my house

[@darkzombiproductions7756]

Why do the First Editions look better than the RID versions, great video like always

[@PicklerEntertainment]

I was finally able to swoop up the First Edition Bee yesterday, and I am SOO happy they have re-released the First Edition Series. This particular version is so much better than its RID counterpart. So ya, bottom line... I'm STOKED. I can't wait till I'm able to get my hands on Cliffjumper and Arcee, then my Prime / Beast Hunters collection will be complete!!

[@ecs1_lmw838]

I'm getting this guy I like how it looks can't wait to see how he looks in hand

[@blackbeetle6992]

So.... Im kind of confused. Does anyone know but did the toys come out a year after the first episode aired. Also, why do Bumblebee figures always get the colors wrong? Also, what the hell was at 2:10?

[@rajiaharrison4364]

In December 2013 I went down to New York and got this a seven hour trip to New York

AWESOME REVIEW! VERY NEAT AND DETAILED !

[@matanui23]

ahh bee never gets old

[@jazz-meister]

I agree with Learhurkatt your reviews are awesome. Too many times too mention ive bought figures youve reviewed because youve made them look better than when hasbro markets them. The small reason is you take the time to transform them correctly which sells the figure. Thanks to the great Optibotimus.

[@XboxGames-uu4cl]

You said children of all ages then said pissed off. XD

[@thgnotorious]

And?

[@peelyyy8885]

Domivator G. Rex it's a bad word and it will make them say it and they might get told off for it.

14:39 See? You get it.

[@crapstirrer]

I agree. Starscream was the only part of that pack I want to keep. Silas and the footman went straight into the recycling bin. Bumblebee's windscreen doesn't line up with the roof or the doors, the door has a chunk out of it where it was cut from the mold and the blue stripes are just wrong. But it was $30 at target. I suppose it was worth it for the off colour Starscream.

[@jazz-meister]

You take the time show everything a figure has, thats what we in the Air Cadets/Royal Air Force call attention to detail and you got 100%

[@MrPrime1998]

When you transform him instead of pulling down on the leg I pull out so I don't brake the tabs. My friends broke from pulling down. Great video.

[@darthdevious]

Nice review as always Paul. I do not understand the complaints about the lighting, I think it looks fine. :)

[@scrapmetal1526]

This is the beast bumblebee ever.

[@susansamuel1280]

I really dig the glowing eye affect

[@evil_luke0745]

I agree with your thoughts of bumblebee

[@luc1dd_mf314]

Just like so

[@JRSIA100]

Dear Optibotimus I just saw your review on the new Bumblebee figure and that Review was awesome. But I was just wondering Which Transformers Prime: Bumblebee Figure Do you prefer the old one or the new one? By the way, Awesome review as always :)) Thanks and have a great day.

[@biosonic100]

Well, it helps anyone watching your videos where you have said it understand what kibble is.

[@crzblazingwolf4864]

Had this little bugger when I was little, and let me just say it is a pain in the ass to transform

[@aussieguy6908]

wow, total different transformation. as I mentioned in the tweet, I found First Edition/RID Bumblebee and Starscream DVD collection.

[@Lakerzfanboy4]

Soundwave better hurry soon! Good review botimus

[@Siltharyn]

Optibotimus you can fold the wings back further, they're on a joint :) so you can push them towards his back! ^_^

[@cappetro]

This version of bumblebee is sooo much better then the RiD version

[@BubblesTheBard]

@optibotimus Oh i agree wholeheartedly. That being said, I have very minor issue with your review style. im not sure if its the lighting or the background itself, but its very, very bright and its a little bit of a strain on my eyesight. it might just be me, but a slight toning-down of the brightness would be appreciated.

[@houdinipig]

i agree i was very disappointed when my Bee only had one cannon :( he needed both...

[@dethkruzer]

First edition figures saw very limited release, so chances of finding him at a toystore are close to nil. you might wanna try out online stores that specialize in this sort of thing. I recommend Kapow toys, that's where I got mine(by accident).

[@james2174]

yes glad i found it

[@supremeprime1997]

@optibotimus was there a ustream last saturday?

[@dethkruzer]

@optibotimus I find it easiest to transform tha back of the car into the legs by slightly rotating the lges inward, away from the side windows, it helps undo the hooks holding onto the legs, and makes it easiers to clear the side windows.

[@alex30059]

@optibotimus ohh.. gd point, thks!

[@squashrex6298]

i use to like the Rid version but i think this Prime Bumblebee version is much better

[@cro2call]

I just got mine today and his movement is a little bit better.

[@doughboy5291]

Love the review! I want it now!

[@Delfromteamrad]

When he was pegging the wheel guard things in robot mode, I swear he said "peg this in mid abortion"

[@tpickup11]

I love Bumblebee! And I want that figure more than you can imagine! Does it suck that Bee only has 1 blaster? Sure but does that make me dislike Bee no not really because 1 blaster is better than nothing right? So I have to say Bumblebee is a 9 and a half out of 10. It would be a perfict 10 if Bee had 2 double barrowed blasters.

[@justinlubo8001]

I remember when I had this so much fun

[@kedington5941]

ya I'm looking for it around my house ether that or it broke

[@susansamuel1280]

Well he is my favorite character in every transformers series

[@Mikao128]

I got him in the 2 pack with Starscream, and although Bumblebee is probably the Autobot I'm least interested in (not because he doesn't speak, just simply because the rest of the team seems more interesting to me) I like his toy. His transformation, however, drives me insane because his legs tend to fall off at the hip joints very, very easily and that makes the final part of the transformation even more frustrating for me.

[@legomaster8594]

I just got the RiD bumblebee,RiD knockout,RiD rumble,and first edition starscream

[@LemGambino]

What...? I haven't seen these in stores yet! What gives? Good review though.

[@BioformerCorviz]

awesome review

[@DCMarvel2009]

You know what my question is? How did the Prime toyline start off with beastly looking figures, then deteriorate to these messed up toys with loose joints and overtly disproportionate accessories? HOW?!?! Someone...

[@princeofyemen100]

i like the new prime figures but i wish they would make a series that had a new story but kept a little G1 look to it tha would be GREAT

[@reggieb1981]

bumblebee is super cool

[@knockoutdotcom]

i just found this guy at tj maxx and i am so happy with it now all i have to do if find cliff jumper

[@LemGambino]

@optibotimus All right, I see. What I really want to get is the Fall of Cybertron toys, but that's a whole year off from the game's release. That's pretty much the only line I'm interested in now, though the Prime characters do look pretty nice...

[@TransformingToybox]

NYCC Bumblebee looks more pissed? Well he IS a New York city cab. Being a pissed off psychopath is how he survives the mean streets. NYC traffic is worse than Megatron, Unicron and a dented can of tuna put together.

[@Mecha82]

I am liking this retail version more than NYCC version. I was not big fan of that NY Taxi color scheme.

[@ranand2744]

I love bumblbee

[@NerdByChoice99]

you know whats great about this bee thats different from most other bee figs? NO BACK KIBBLE!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS A Miracle!

[@ckeesee1]

the picture of bumblebee on the back of the box, he is golden. does that mean they used the takara tomy version?

[@VentiMel]

are you excited for Fall of Cybertron? saw the trailer and it looked awesome

[@alex30059]

@optibotimus hey optibotimus, i have this little problem. no matter how well i transform my figs to vehicles, they just wont balance. u know "balance"? it's really a pain in a butt. is there way to improve it? then the vehicle would always have 3 out of 4 wheels spinning instead of all when i give it a push. plz help.

[@Drak3e1]

I have a bad feeling in my gut that tells me they will make 4 different versionons of this figure

[@transformersfan7]

Holy woa..woah I want that

[@BubblesTheBard]

@optibotimus Alright, thanks for the consideration. ^^

[@susansamuel1280]

Are angling them down really compulsary?

[@danidenis2010]

nice ring :D

[@theheck12]

I find this and wfc bumblebee far superior because of the hard transformation how accurate it looks

[@Ejack69]

Odd, you saw the chest on your bumblebee is slanted way upward, however mind sits fine to where it doesn't flare up. But instead it just is at an angle to where it straight.

[@formula93]

This figure needs some Reprolabels! :D

[@BenjiJayGeeJay]

Air Cadets? I was part of that for 2 years.

[@Константин-м9р6ь]

Super !

[@nickspicer600]

You should transform all your transformers on video including botcons and special ones

[@Chosenhorse2]

Bumblebee looks like he did in the movies which is really cool, but I don't like it they made him beeping like R2D2 in "Transformers: Prime" 1 of the reasons why I don't care about the show. Too bad they didn't make Bumblebee use his car radio to talk like in the movies, that would be allot better for the character.

[@Omikamiii]

i love prime toys

[@arryagne123]

R u using a different camera?

[@bruce_wayne86]

MY DREAM!!!!!

[@StrikerGameplay]

Watched this video because I forgot how to transform this haha

[@SHINOBI-03]

@TheMatman54 I did that a lot, but nothing changes. Every other videos in YT works fine except this one!

[@stilo859]

I only got Optimus i want this figrue so much

[@360rage8]

Azuan Anuar am a big transformers prime fan i Will even when am 100

[@Dantohr]

You dont show the Display Stand :( but great review!

[@ThunderTurtle7]

you have to give hasbro credit i would imagine it is harder to make the toys for transformers prime because the design is kind of rigid i guess. hard to describe but u probably get the idea

[@Nullkoopa]

My joints for his arms are fine.

[@W1zT3ch]

in europe we dont have the hub,we see transformers prime on cartoon networks

[@legomaster8594]

I just created a channel and I'm gonna start on my video reviews around Christmas

[@mandisu01]

You don't have playlists and other channels

[@thedeicide]

To be realy honnest. I don't like him. I only like the shoulders. Well the armor that covers up the tire. Other than that I think the vehicle mode looks better. And bumblebee needs a face mold that doesn't look like the face of a adult inflateble toy.

[@alex30059]

hmm.. if u do the chest like so, then wouldnt the autobot logo be covered?

[@jazz-meister]

no prob anytime

[@TheNinoslow]

nice review and awesome figure i just got mine by ebay woot woot

[@JoshJenrayAK47]

Hey, i like the taxi version! ... but, to me, the car seems... idk, maybe a bit too small?

[@MegaSnowlizard]

i was messing with a legends earlier then tried to transform bumblebee... What a mistake that was! The joint for mine is barely loose as well.

[@UndeadCoyote32]

If hasbro makes one more fucking bumblebee, Im going to lose it!

[@syafiqsyahiran1760]

Nice man

[@arryagne123]

Sorry I didn't put this in the other comment but are u going to do a review of the retail arcee I only ask this because I know the instructions will be total crap

[@jazz-meister]

Sorry i spelt Leathurkatt wrong on the other post thats iphone typing no harm intended. Just thought it be polite to point that out :)

[@Arcyon]

where did you get him

[@FPrimusUnicron]

i dont know, i like it but im happy with my dotm bumblebee and i think i dont know another bee for now at least

[@edwardrichtofen72]

He's already in the U.S.

[@ecs1_lmw838]

I have this figure but it's the entertainment pack version

[@arielmontes7816]

YOU'RE THE BEST
