Received ULTIMATE BUMBLE BEE yesterday, and man is this mofo huge. However, some downsides, not on the same level as a masterpiece. In fact he dwarfs my MP Optimus. and the fact that its electonic and can move on his own takes away from some of the pose-ability. and some of the paint details arent the best becuase of the light up features. I would have preferred it be the same scale as MPs and made of the same material and quality.
that being said, I'd recommend it only if you are a completist or if you love bumblebee (Bumble and Starscream are my pesonal favorites)
Haven't tried to transform him yet, but it looks daunting

Good luck transforming that monster, I might get it if it goes on sale, because those aren't moving at all by me.
Side Note: Picked up my own 08 Deluxe Bumblebee, I am so proud, my bro has every on screen character, but I just got both Deluxe Bumblebees now, and I am cool with that, if you are to get any transformer, get the 08 Deluxe Bumblebee, that's the ideal transformer, it's awesome.

One of my favorite characters is Starscream. My friend told me he was selling some of his Transformers on ebay, and so I asked him if he would put some of my comics up for me. So I told him what I had and he said he was interested in a few and would trade me any Transformers I wanted for them. I mentioned Starscream and he said he had an awesome version. He just gave it to me. He said it was the "cartoon version" of Starscream. He explained what was different about it to me, but I didn't notice anything. Anyone know about this?

Finally got the '08 Camaro Bumblebee. So now I have both Bumblebees, Op Prime, and Barricade  I really should have invested in this line a little better, they blend in nicely with my other TF toys |

Wish that the 08 Camaro was packed in with the Bumblebee vs Barricade 2pk, i would snap that up in a flash. I just think the 74 version sucks for some reason =[

undietaker is he talking about the classic starscream comparerd to the movie one? or is he talking about the movie g1 repaint?
i love the 74 bumblebee as i love old cars from that peroid. even tho it doesnt transform as nice. i havnt been on this thread as i been trying to pick up some much needed CS figures. looks like with that new anime-ish style they are doing i doubt i will be picking up any figs from that line, but ya neverknow

Woot! My local Target restocked all of the first series (the one with the 77 Bumblebee.) I managed to score a Barricade finally. I'm glad I waited, because originally, I was going to get the Recon Barricade because I couldn't find the regular.

if any of you guys collect the masterpieces, it looks like they pushed back the masterpiece wal-mart exclusive G1 version of starscream again....damnit.
On the plus side, there is a new Takara Skywarp masterpiece, looks pretty bad ass. But I'm definitely waiting for my Starscream to hit.

Does anyone have a list of the new movie figures that were actually in the movie? Also, are they in scale with each other?

Deluxe, Voyager and Leader Class Of those.. the following characters are from the movie: Deluxe: '76 Bumblebee Barricade Brawl Bone Crusher Jazz '08 Bumblebee Scorpnok Long Arm (while not technically in the movie as a robot, they still made him into the tow truck that Mikela straps Bumblebee to at the end of the movie) Voyager: Starscream Ironhide Ratchet Megatron Optimus Prime Blackout Leader Class: Optimus Prime Megatron Brawl |

Its just a repaint of Starscream and we all know how much that blew. MP05 Megatron on the other hand is just love |

...but Target has an exclusive coming out with the 76 and a battle damaged 08 one...  Is '08 Bumblebee's body damaged? If so, I may need to pick one up and hook it up to Longarm... |

yea the Bumblebee is battle damaged, but just like Battle Damaged Jazz, it the legs don't come off, that would have made it much more battle damaged.

The 08 Bumblebee's hips are on a ball joint that you should easily be able to pop apart

bumblebees legs broke at/under the knees, not the hips.
