    So, he's an Action Master? And kudos to Robosen for programming Bumblebee to understand Scottish accents. Although it would have been amusing if you spent half the review shouting "Eleven" at it.

    Very impressed with it's movements during "combat" such as kicking and gun totting, shame the walking is so silly.
    Also the bit where Bee fell over made me laugh out loud so that's worth some engagement to tickle the algorithm.

    This shares a space with Ultimate Metal Ultra Magnus, it’s amazing but as a mom? I can’t bring myself to drop what would be the down payment on a car for one of the kids on a toy.
    Absolutely amazing product for those who get it, just not for me.

    I think the only way I'd buy a Robosen toy is is there were a Soundwave with Frank Welker's voice or a Blurr with John Moschitta babbling away. What concerns me is how likely it is that they'll do the former.

  • @markrobinsontraining
    @markrobinsontraining Год назад +6

    Agree about HasLab Unicron but TBH I'd still prefer that to this Bumblebee. (And I'm looking forward to their transforming Jetfire... maybe have to wait a couple of years?)

  • @NorthstarSystem
    @NorthstarSystem Год назад +4

    Oh I love this little shit. You give him the command to attack and for a slight moment in time, he panics, his gun isnt loaded, he hasnt had his cup of coffee today and hes a bit peckish he isnt in the fighting mood, but you scared the life out of him, so a moment after considering surrender he tryies to fight back but is so panicked he just kinda flails around in an attempt to be intimidating but its just like a little kid playfighting with imaginary bad guys.
    also, "you're a fucking liability, man" is a very good line.

    "A good toy is a good toy!...".
    Words to live by Sir.
    I've only ever really enjoyed Transformers on an asthetic level and I've noticed I've yet to have a Transformer somewhere in my collection.
    I curse myself for never picking up the Transformers Animated Bulkhead. One day.
    Anyway, I'm prattling on. 2 Good Boys and Infinite Review brought me here and I am SO glad I made the journey. Brilliant video, can't wait to watch more.
    From one toy demon to another, thank you for all the good work.

    It is lovely. I think I prefer the way this one works over Optimus. The Optimus one is so big and I pretty much only have room and the right sort of surface for that in my kitchen or bathroom and who's gonna take Optimus Prime into their bathroom to play with him? What if someone needs a poo? Bumblebee could fit on a desk though. Mostly. Now, if these things were like 8 or so inches tall that'd probably snag me. Wouldn't need to give them loads of room. Could just have them on my desk and mess about without having to clear space.

And while I have spent more on single toys a couple times in the past . . . I just don't want to buy this thing. It's cute, it moves surprisingly well, but it just seems like so much damn WORK to play with it.

  • @g_oduofthenorth9618
    @g_oduofthenorth9618 Год назад

    Honestly, it seems odd to me that they didn't use the bayverse or knightverse bumblebee for this. I mean, I'm not a big fan of the live action films, but I've also never really been a fan of g1 bumblebee, at least not when he opens up his big gob and sounds like Casey Kasum. I like the toy a lot, don't get me wrong, he's super cute, but for me that just did not translate to animation. Weirdly, I think what I'd much rather have is a g1 toy style small bumblebee with super limited articulation in robot mode, but a car mode you can control with a little remote, make him zip around on the table. Almost like his throttlebot days as goldbug, but a little extra money just to make him an rc car.
