Robot Replica Bumblebee


I snagged RR BB and here are my thoughts:-

PVC quality - reasonable and not to shabby. Looks like can take a lot of punishment.



Paint job - very tacky and incomplete. Alot of areas not painted properly and some areas are not painted at all. Cost cutting measures by Hasbro definitely.

Poseability - I have only one thing to say : If you are spoilt by revoltech, these RR is a major letdown. There are no wrist movement, limited shoulder, knee and elbow movement. The joints on the head, shoulder, waist, ankle are quite spot on tho.



Accessories - Just one arm cannon that can be detached and attached to BB's right arm.

Overall - Dodgy paint job and under-utilization of the revoltech joints, this figure scored a 5/10 from me. But if you are looking for a display piece, this might be up your alley. Here is my advise cum 2 cents, save some moolah and get the Voyager Optimus Prime and Deluxe BB08 2 pack instead. Here is a comparative pic with the Deluxe BB08.

Welcome!

With the post mania that Transformers had weighed upon us, I have decided to take my chances into online reviewing of toys that I have so much passion for. Collecting to me has not even been a thought until late September 2006 where I have ignited my old hobby of buying cool looking and ass kicking mechas. Hence, this blog will feature reviews and opinion of the toys that I own and also the take on other toys that are besides Transformers.

I have been an avid Transformers fan since 1984. Due to constraints and budgeting (of the family kind), I was never given the opportunity to collect or to own and G1 of other incarnation of Transformers when I was much younger.

Now, working, independent and having some cash to spare, this is definitely a good trip down memory lane. Anyhow, I may not be a G1 (Geewhun, as the fandom might put it) but I am damn well pleased to know the kindred spirit I have with TFs.

Stay tuned, reviews coming soon. :)
