Video Review: Transformers Masterpiece MPM-7 BUMBLEBEE (Volkswagen Beetle)

[@ryderthompson779]

The movie isn't even out yet and we already have a masterpiece

[@johnreel0161]

is that a good thing or a bad thing?? Im really starting to hate that every transformers movie and show nowadays is making Bee the main character.

[@MrMajorasmask101]

Johnreel01 did you see the new bumblebee trailer

[@predatron4197]

@@johnreel0161 bad thing. This toy isnt even accurate to the new movie.

[@Tangyc9]

I'm fine if its not accurate but hey it's your opinion

[@Tangyc9]

Me too i hate bee being as a main character it feels boring and sounds boring Optimus Makes a better main character but it's my opinion

[@shenhowe]

Love these reviews peaugh!!! Thanks for making the time to do these!!!

[@peaugh]

shen You’re welcome!

[@ChaoticDarkness1]

This has already became my favorite Bumblebee, he just looks so cool with that battle mask on and those weapons.

[@vustvaleo8068]

for a Masterpiece figure he does not look screen accurate, i mean they leave out most important part: visible head syndrome when looking underneath the car!

[@matthewromangnoli]

But your never going to display him upside down ARE YOU?

[@Tangyc9]

Yeah right your not going to display him upside down if you want to display him upside down then get some Bumblebee's that has visible head having that visible head is not really important since your not really looking at him upside down

[@Okusar]

Personally, I'm more bothered by the fact that every figure still has the prominent door wings despite 'Bee not having them in the new movie.

[@mikekz4489]

That’s just an inside joke for us fans.

[@crossyfirezx9659]

@@Okusar i agree with you on that , i got a good at the cgi model and i'm disappointed 4/10

[@zindelstudios]

That looks awesome! I want it! You’re very lucky to have this figure!

[@NathanSimmonsSworn]

Great review Peaugh. Can't wait to get him and MPM-06 Ironhide (someday...).

[@TheDabberSupreme]

Thank you for this detailed review. Mine is on the way and I can't wait to review this on my channel

[@jordanharrington1890]

My judgement is clouded by the fact that this came out before MPM06

[@Tangyc9]

I thought Ironhide will come out first then this one can't believe this one came first

[@sweetlogo]

Watching you fiddle with this thing makes me appreciate one steps.

[@transcamaro10]

As a younger fan I'd just like to say that I'm sick of how much Hasbro is leaning into the G1 aesthetic. I was exposed to Transformers in the Armada era so I have no attachment to G1. I respect it and appreciate what it represents for this franchise but like you said, the amount of Primes and Soundwaves that all look the same and have the same gimmick, it's just getting old. I would love it if we got more creative offerings and could see some stuff branch out from G1 and not be such a staunch direct representation of the classic characters.

[@Fishy_VA]

0:22* wow, you survived for 800 years? Who are you, Master Yoda?*

[@CannonFodder93]

2018 truly was the year of the Bumblebee. :P

[@Vraptor140]

Too bad the movie decided to not give him the door wings in the end.

[@Niche_YT]

They're there, its just always in a very down position

[@NightmareZerogbs]

yeah, they must've changed that very late into production, all the collectors' toys have them! sure, the simple, gimmicky toys don't have them, but that's most likely due to their simple nature, not by intent.

[@manuelescobar3982]

Do you know if theyll be making Shatter and Dropkick in MPM format? I loved this movie!!!!!

[@CrimeLife-ug5uz]

We need a movie masterpiece dropkick and shatter

[@JacobvsRex]

I really like this design and the masterpiece figure looks great. Think I’ll be getting it regardless of how the movie turns out

[@bluspeed7]

Already!?

[@psychokitty444]

This and the deluxe already do more for me than any other movie Bumblebee toy.

[@beebee2670]

I don’t mind the inaccurate wings as where else would they of put them

[@thattrash1128]

Bee Bee I do that's the main reason why slot of people hate the figure

[@_V.Va_]

On a hinge

[@justinmohan7103]

Can't wait to get this guy. They did such a good job

[@thattrash1128]

Justin Mohan no they didn't

[@Time_Fire199]

Does Peaugh have connections with Hasbro/Takara? How else does he already have this figure? Lol just kidding. EDIT: I really like the look of this figure and the Camaro Masterpiece Bumblebee. Maybe I’ll get them both in the future.

[@thaylensabre]

I've got mine already

[@medafan53]

@@thaylensabre I have Camaro Bee, but I made the mistake of getting him from ebay, and wound up with one with 2 left arms and instead of a left and right arm, so I cannot use the gun. I plan to find a replacement at some point.

[@thaylensabre]

My biggest mistake with him and the other MPM figures was getting the official version. My official Camaro Bee will not stand, and Prime in truck mode is worse than any pic I seen online. I'm having issues with VW Bee already. I have the KO for Prime and Bee and they are perfect!!

[@_AlexB_]

@@thaylensabre yup, straight waitin for the ko of this guy also. Kudos for gettin the masterpieces as well tho

[@Fc203]

Paul Estrada he got it from Asia it was released last week

[@lostboyaj2868]

I love his battle mask in this film I personally think it looks really good

[@ritzchie9940]

@peaugh is there a way to make the chest pieces lock in place or is it just loose?

[@ragemalachi]

That battle mask makes me think hes kamen rider bee lol. i love it. cant wait for this guy

[@Envisaged0ne]

Pictures show that his eyes can light up. Does it require separate batteries?

[@peaugh]

Those maybe photoshopped? There's nothing in the instructions about light up eyes.

[@MisaelCastilloBrenes]

Will you review Perfect Effect Mega Dragon and Fanstoys Cyclonus?

[@peaugh]

Misael Castillo Not sure about Cyclones, but definitely planning to get Doragon

[@Thunderwing88]

I mainly focus on the G1 characters we haven’t got yet, I try not to buy multiples of the same character in the same line, like Power of the Primes Inferno.

[@Tangyc9]

Me too i reminded myself many times but i still buy the same character because the figure of the character looks good

[@Thunderwing88]

Or an improvement, like Prime Wars Trilogy Punch/Counterpunch.

[@ErmIDK19]

I have money burning a hole in my virtual pocket and im looking for a collectible transformer or plural to help me get it under control and i just cant decide on movie MP figures . Im never sure if there just mainline leader class repaints or wholey original pieces? Im sure i heard starscream at the very least is a reused mold . But I don't know about this guy and others ! Urghh ;

[@danielhernandezsolano4091]

It looks cool but once again hi has a big backpack, I’m amaze on how Hasbro has never figure out what to do with Bumblee bee’s roof and windshield on any of the hundred molds they have may about move bee. If a 3rd came out with a solutions for that back, im in

[@johnmarkgordonTV]

IS there a difference between this MPM-7 "Hasbro" Verison versus a "TAKARA" version?

[@PhantomHarlock78]

When the jedi master of TF toys don´t like the instructions, you know something can be done better. After a while without buying TFs, I bought Optimus Power of Primes. Is not a very difficult transform, but the red and black instructions are awful.

[@bull7950]

is the studio series a downscaled masterpiece, or is the masterpiece an upscaled studio series?? 🤔 *x-files theme plays*

[@livferocious3946]

Can we get a new masterpiece bumblebee of the beetle with visible head syndrome and hidden doors

[@elrick44]

Does it bug anyone else that Bumblebee doesnt actually have the door wings in the new movie, but they still added them to the masterpiece? Personally I prefer the movie look for him

[@mikekz4489]

At least the panels don’t start being misaligned just from handling the car, unlike the G1 MP Bumblebee.

[@RCCrawlerz209]

Looks good, but I hate to say it, not digging the color of those windows....wish they were just clear (white?) windows as opposed to teal/blue.

[@Tangyc9]

But to me the blue is better cuz it hides the robot bits inside

[@RCCrawlerz209]

@@Tangyc9 To me, it just doesn't blend very well with yellow, all that much, in my opinion.

[@Tangyc9]

Well that's fine

[@NightmareZerogbs]

Nice figure, but it does look painful to transform, but man, I totally agree with you on Siege, neat, but it's way too G1! we need fresh stuff, I think we're the only fandom that _actually_ wants stuff to be different from the usual nostalgic stuff.

[@TheRealDustinNunn]

I am more familiar with movie masterpiece figures coming out AFTER the live-action Transformers movies are made. But now, it's reversed!

[@jrmolina783]

How tall is he in inches?

[@JimmyHauser]

He does look good. I just wish they could do a movie bumblebee that isn’t so much shellformer.

[@TripChebook]

It's not for me, but it's still a neat figure.

[@coopergreen7961]

[@AdamDMurray]

Finally!

i'm really like this mpm bumblebee design but.... those wings.... 89% not accurate from the trailer.. because the wings way too bigger ....

[@Fuzzehead]

23:23 *SWIVEEEEEEEEEEEEL HEEEEEEEEEEEERE*

[@fernandopickling]

The truth and not for being "party poopers", but ..., it does not look at all like the movie, it's like buying the "studio series" but bigger. Apparently, they took advantage of the mold of the studio series (camaro) and the masterpiece movie (mpm) and created these 2 hybrids of bumblebee before the movie was released and in that way, sell and sell. but when you went to the movies and saw the movie, you go back to your house, you take your bumblebee and you say: "this is a scam" .. "bumblebee has no wings", and worse still has a tremendous backpack !! .But well, let's hope that Hasbro and TakaraTomy, go back to get another masterpiece of Bumblebee more faithful and more in line with the movie, because this Bumblebee masterpice mpm7, I smell like "Total scam". Happily I did not buy it. Greetings from Perú ...

[@muisverriet]

The wings are there because he's based off concept art wich did have them. That's literally all it is.

[@_V.Va_]

@@muisverriet Maybe they shouldn't have based the MASTERPIECE figure off of concept art?

[@NESHER1972]

This is a little pricey!!

G1 fatigue...maybe....start putting out BRAND NEW characters from other sources...not just G2 why not a new direction...G3?...how about Beast Wars but with how G1 or 2 characters would look in animal form? ...try ANYTHING...oh,well....

Not really the best attitude? "Screw the people who actually make Transformers, let's not even buy the original and go and support some random Chinese company profiting entirely off stealing!". Admittedly, I buy a few KOs but you've got to support the original company at least sometimes too.

[@baldytalkinnerdy3462]

@@muisverriet Just like the Last Knight deluxe. Studio Series Bee is SUPER fiddly.

[@reaktorleak89]

I think I've been seeing a trend. The new studio series Barricade is a simplified version of Movie Masterpiece Barricade. There's an SS Jazz out now, and an MPM Jazz coming next year. And supposedly a new MM Starscream and Megatron...that are probably more complex versions of their Studio Series counterparts.

[@DarthChimera]

I'm sorry but it's a masterpiece release with parts not lining up in car mode, a shoddy weathering job and a transformation that is hampered by parts just flinging themselves off the robot. Hard pass. These damn things are hella expensive and I'm not paying the extra cost for something that's this unworthy of the moniker 'master'piece.

[@Okusar]

Lots of Masterpiece figures have issues like this; from Hotrod's chrome easily rubbing off, to the paint scraping issue and saggy barrel on Megatron's back, to MPM Optimus' _everything._ If you disregarded every figure that has minor issues like this you'd have to ignore half the line.

[@muisverriet]

Lots of MP figures have just as much, if not more, issues than this. Remember the first MP Hot Rod? He exploded when looked at the wrong way.

[@DarthChimera]

First off: those figures are quite a bit older than this one, and second: the damn thing is 90 dollar plus shipping, which for me is another 50 to 60 dollar. For that money, I expect the figure to live up to some kind of standard, preferable a high one. And it just doesn't for me.

[@MTWENTY]

this looks awful. He looks like a kids toy (ironically) but I am not digging it at all
