AS a kid I loved honey, I loved Honey Nut Cheerios, and Bit o'honey, so ofc I loved Buzz Off! But, I did think his claws should have been a bit bigger, and his head larger and much weirder. THe later iterations of his design were awesome!
I had Buzz Off as a kid and I still love him today. He is very eye-catching and interesting. My favorite character is Fisto and I cant`t wait for a Fisto video, dear Toyguru.....!!!-)))
I love that "Bee my action figure" with the filmation sound to it I'm gonna point your channel to a youtuber that collects the line that might not know about this channel.
I'd just like to thank whomever made the decision to allow the goggles on Buzz-Off's helmet to actually cover his eyes, until the vintage line where they just sort of dangled over his eyes and only covered like a third of them. That always....bugged me. ;)
The only Buzz-Off I own is the 200x version. I really liked how he was more lanky, lithe, and insect-like than the buff version. Crossing fingers that maybe someday, we get a 6" MOTU 200x line, sans forced poses, and with improved articulation. Maybe something could happen in Masterverse.
@@spectorcreative1872 Oh, I definitely remember your video! I'm just hoping it can still happen. MOTU has more lives than a cat with a box of horse shoes.
Awesome figure! One of the best in the line, IMHO! Just annoyed we never got a Club Grayskull version.....ah well! Spilt milk and all that! Always excited to see this guy in each incarnation of the line!
Brilliant vid, and love that figure ,as a kid id ask why does a bee have claws ? Hat stays on lol is your wife same as person who wrote the morals at end of episode
I have my original Buzz-Off, 2001 reissue SEALED, Classics, sealed Classics (thanks to Mad Matty Monday. Also vintage Super 7 loose and, somewhere sealed. I subscribe to no religion.
If there would have been a way to remove the armor but keep the wings attached, I think the 200X head would have looked more at home on the Classics buck.
Yes. They were upset when a toy would say "limited to XX amount" but that amount did not count pre production samples or units given to employees &c...
@@spectorcreative1872 - I figured it would've been some collector who wants to know how many units of a specific figure were produced. Thank you Scott. I always appreciate the knowledge you drop.
@@spectorcreative1872 HA! Oh, but there are GREAT science-y things to be learned from "Futurama." Just so long as you're not learning them from Fry or Zoidberg. 😉
Sounds like you should have left bees alone when you were a kid! Although the Cheerios bee and Buzz Off ... I never realized how much in common they have until seeing this video ... it can never be unseen! Call legal!
I have to disagree, I think the 200x Buzz-Off head looks very good on the Classics body. I know there were some, like Whiplash, which looked a bit of place, but I didn't think that was the case with Buzz-Off. Plus, while the 200x figure looks awesome, it is definitely one of the most frustrating ones to get to stand and keep standing!
there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.
He is the only good guy in my favorite top 5 motu characters, Mer Man no1 Stinkor no2 Spikor no3 Evil Lynn no4 and Buzz off no5. I saw a video abotu that kids wanted good guys, but i dont know any kids who wanted Prince Adam, Fisto or heck even He Man, it was all monsters we kids wanted back in the days. Mekanek and Prince Adam was something we kids saw as punishment to get. Same thing with Transformers we kids loved our tanks and jets and those was deceptions boring cars wasn't interesting only autobots we liked was dinobots and those was dinosaurs.
Freudian psychoanalysis is largely discredited nonsense, but I enjoyed the rest of the video. I really never liked Buzz-Off as a kid. The 1984 releases were packed with anthropomorphized animal characters, which always struck me as lacking in creativity. Buzz-Off is a C-Lister in my book, but his classics figure really pops with the bright yellow and the deep, dark brown. He has survived several rounds of thinning out my MOTUC collection.
"Plus it meant I had an action figure on vacation"
I know the feeling...
True dat!
UH...you guys don't BRING toys on vacation?
I love the little bits of toy development psychology you drop into these videos.
Thank you. My partner at Spector Creative has her Masters in Child Play Therapy from NYU and she helps a lot with that aspect.

I'm definitely looking forward to the explanation video about the techno organic virus. I love all of the mythology from this line.
I was thinking of doing a video on that and some other loose ends from the mini comics. I'll add it to the top of the list
"Mixture of pain and pleasure", someone call the Cenobites, that's their department!
Oh no! Not the Cenobites.... ;-P
Cenobites just sound like a delicious breakfast cereal
@@robt.v.8688 it definitely cuts up the roof of your mouth though

His video isn't that far off
@@spectorcreative1872 what about Jitzu?
Buzz Off was my first MOTU figure!!!!!! still have it :)
I think I have mine too, somewhere.... Glad he still brings you smiles. A great first figure

Love it. Thank you
"Bee comes out of a Honey's butt"... 🤔 14:45
Yeah, I blame Futurama
I picked up on this one too, haha. XD
He's smokin' that good weed and doing You Tube,not uncommon.
This video is bee-utifull!
Honey of a comment
@@spectorcreative1872 These puns sting-k! XD
Just subbed from today's podcast with Jay and John or geek dad life 😁👍
Awesome! I had a blast on their show.
I'd just like to thank whomever made the decision to allow the goggles on Buzz-Off's helmet to actually cover his eyes, until the vintage line where they just sort of dangled over his eyes and only covered like a third of them. That always....bugged me. ;)
That would be Terry or Bill, whomever was the designer on him!
I said it already but I'll say it again, I love these videos!
Thank you so much! Please do share and repost them. It helps
Sweet buzzoff love this figure
Me too
Waiting impatiently for a stinky review . You know who mean
"You dip the apple in the honey like THIS! You dip the apple in the honey make a WISH!" Another fun & informative video, man.
Going for it!
The only Buzz-Off I own is the 200x version. I really liked how he was more lanky, lithe, and insect-like than the buff version.
Crossing fingers that maybe someday, we get a 6" MOTU 200x line, sans forced poses, and with improved articulation. Maybe something could happen in Masterverse.
It was in the plans. See my 200X 6" video!
@@spectorcreative1872 Oh, I definitely remember your video! I'm just hoping it can still happen. MOTU has more lives than a cat with a box of horse shoes.
I bet mattel dodged that bullet brown hair he-man? Hell no haha. He def is one of my top 10 motu characters.
Cool beans!
Love Buzz Off specifically in 2002. Allthough u liked the old design a bit better.
I did indeed
@@spectorcreative1872 yes i did too felt like a more unique look.
I meant to ask who's your number 1 fav character in motuc?
Stratos
Buzz-Off was designed by Colin Bailey, not Roger Sweet, FYI
Awesome figure! One of the best in the line, IMHO! Just annoyed we never got a Club Grayskull version.....ah well! Spilt milk and all that! Always excited to see this guy in each incarnation of the line!
Me too
Brilliant vid, and love that figure ,as a kid id ask why does a bee have claws ? Hat stays on lol
is your wife same as person who wrote the morals at end of episode
The episodes of MOTU? Neither I nor my wife worked on the show, just the toys.
@@spectorcreative1872 no mean same job there was someone who did the morals lol
I have my original Buzz-Off, 2001 reissue SEALED, Classics, sealed Classics (thanks to Mad Matty Monday. Also vintage Super 7 loose and, somewhere sealed. I subscribe to no religion.
Not even the bee religion
If there would have been a way to remove the armor but keep the wings attached, I think the 200X head would have looked more at home on the Classics buck.
Yeah, with the tooling as planned that wasn't possible
"You know bee comes out of a honey's butt?" 14:45
Last time I get a science lesson from Futurama
Why does a character with bug eyes have a bug eye helmet.
To keep out bugs obviously
You'll be doing Stinkor?
I am going in release order. So, yes!
Oh he will I'm waiting so ever patiently. Stinkor has a cult following it would seem. But I'm his number 1 fan
I have a funny story about that figure I’ll share when the video is released!
Vintage Buzz Off bugs me as a kid (pun intended). I had a hard time keeping his helmet on his head. My mum bought it for me when she went to Hong Kong
Yeah, mine fell off too.
I liked buzz off
And he likes you too
People sued over production numbers?
Yes. They were upset when a toy would say "limited to XX amount" but that amount did not count pre production samples or units given to employees &c...
@@spectorcreative1872 - I figured it would've been some collector who wants to know how many units of a specific figure were produced.
Thank you Scott. I always appreciate the knowledge you drop.
Does that mean that if Buzz-Off stings skeletor, buzz off would die?
But he has no stinger
Technically, as a male bee, he shouldn't have a stinger.
Fun video! Just one point of contention, though: honey comes out of bees' mouths, not their butts.
I should really stop learning things based o Futurama
@@spectorcreative1872 HA! Oh, but there are GREAT science-y things to be learned from "Futurama." Just so long as you're not learning them from Fry or Zoidberg. 😉
I never noticed that Buzz Off doesn't have a stinger before.
Funny right?
I wish we could have gotten a two pack of the Filmation Bee people to build up Buzz-Offs race.
That would have been awesome!
Crud I guessed Stinkor again.
Likely
Sounds like you should have left bees alone when you were a kid!
Although the Cheerios bee and Buzz Off ... I never realized how much in common they have until seeing this video ... it can never be unseen! Call legal!
You've seen it, you can't unsee it!
Maybe “bee comes out of a honey’s butt” however honey comes out of a bee’s mouth.
Yeah, last time I take a science lesson from Futurama
I thought he WAS the King? I don’t mind him being the king!
Its good to be the king
❤️
You too
I have to disagree, I think the 200x Buzz-Off head looks very good on the Classics body. I know there were some, like Whiplash, which looked a bit of place, but I didn't think that was the case with Buzz-Off. Plus, while the 200x figure looks awesome, it is definitely one of the most frustrating ones to get to stand and keep standing!
Well glad you do. And fully right to your feelings on it. ;-)
At least he isn't a yellow jacket. Those things are true evil!
Or a Murder Hornet!
@@spectorcreative1872 Murder Hornet sounds like it should be a MotU villain.
Would you ever be interested in a skype or live youtube stream about you and your work on motu? Like maby with Pixel dan or a few fans?
I am always down for that type of thing.
@@spectorcreative1872 lemme get back to you. I have the perfect person to join us
I took my original buzz off with to kindergarten one day and his legs broke off on the play ground:(
Oh no! The horror
Fascinating.10th comment.😄
Glad you enjoyed!
Honey comes from the stomach not the butt Scott. Female bees regurgitate.
Well I guess I should stop learning things from Futurama
I dont know how you stomache that show pun intended haha
So it’s vomit not poop. These comments have ruined honey forever!
It is bee puke, not from the butt of the bee it is them who puke up the honey.
Last time I try to learn something from Futurama
According to all known laws
of aviation,
there is no way a bee
should be able to fly.
Its wings are too small to get
its fat little body off the ground.
The bee, of course, flies anyway
because bees don't care
what humans think is impossible.
That is my new favorite saying. i am putting tnis up on my wall.
I'm pretty sure you said bees comes out of honeys butt
Sounds like me
