I think the mpm and ss versions were a good effort considering they were given unfinished concept art for reference and the time crunch of the release along with the movie. If they are planning to make a 2.0 tho, that would be great
emgo has been the inspiration throughout my life and has unintentionally helped me through hard times and i cannot express how important someone i’ve never met is to me, i’ve known you all my life emgo, thank you.
Not gonna lie: when I saw the figure at the beginning of the video, during Mascot's introduction, my first thought was "oh, another Transformers figure that doesn't transform" when I noticed the amount of detail and lack of 'hanging car parts" on the toy. Kudos to TransCraft.
I would like to add by saying you differ from prime vs prime because your videos you make more jokes which is why I really like watching them lol, Like the BM screws, and some of the other jokes you make lol
S a m e, EmGo will always be my go to for any and ALL tf-related reviews. Nobody competes with his amount of detail and unbiased opinions on the figure’s quality itself
To have a KO transformer toy engineered in such a way that is movie accurate...I have nothing else to say but kudos to them. They just made Hasbro look like a kindergartner compared to a college student.
Just got this today and I'm blown away. Transformation was bit tricky the first time to get everything exactly right, but after that, it gets easier. Very impressed by the engineering.
@@napalmdex440 26:21 he's the same size of MPM BB, but, none of them scale right with mpm Ironhide. You'd need OS BMB Ironhide. And in fact, BB MOVIE Bumblebee is smaller than bay Bumblebee. So, you decide what fits
I am a huge fan of faux chests. It's the best way to make the figures look the most like the character. I just received my copy of this figure, and I love it. I never liked the MPM version, but this one really makes the official feel and look like a cheap toy. It is one of those figures that when you look at him, it is hard to believe he transforms.
Wow that is Incredible! What a marvel of engineering! I didn't think it trasformed at first!These 3rd party companies are absolutely CRUSHING IT! the fact this transforms is astonishing! GLORIOUS engineering! A true masterpiece for BB movie BB! :')
Thank you for the review EmGo! I was on the fence on whether it was gonna be like Toyworld Optimus' nightmare engineering, especially since it hides all the kibble so well, but yea I'm DEFINITELY buying it now
There was no WAY I was going to miss out on this Bee! Got him in the mail on Saturday and have pretty much playing with him non-stop. He's a perfect display piece but too fun to leave on the shelf. I can't wait to see what Trancraft does for Bumblebee movie Optimus and Blitzwing. Though Zeta's Blitzwing is going to be hard to resist, I haven't seen an Optimus that's worthy of the name yet. The only trouble with Transcraft was the wait was absolute torture. Worth it, but torture.
Yep you’re right I am too waiting for a good day prime with details like the toy world and solid as the wei Jiang or bmb I forgot. And that transform of course!
Now, this is a real "transformer" toy. He actually transforms himself to either mode. Most of them just have panels around the robot to become a vehicle.
I don't mind fake pieces for better accuracy as long as the regular piece can be hidden away like they did here with hiding the headlights into the legs
To me this is the mpm bumblebee movie bumblebee I haven't got any of the bumblebees for this movie yet but this is the only one I'm getting amazing work they have done genius on how he transforms too
For some reason I get the feeling the entire figure was designed that way because someone was like, oh hey, the back windows would work well for this designs wings
For anyone who doesn't know (or cares), the quote on the box is a reference to the song (Don't You) Forget About Me, by Simple Minds. I can't remember off the top of my head if that song was featured in Bumblebee
I don't know why this suddenly hit me now, but at the end with your outro, all I can hear is: "Remember, you don't stop playing 'Bee'cause you grow old, you grow old 'Bee'cause you stop playing. 'Bee' geek, 'Bee' proud!" I'm sorry, that's all I can hear now, lol! (Also, I'm a big fan of your outro, really cool and it's true!)
Bro this figure is insane but it costs a lot of steps and money. More like a masterpiece. This figure is just like the movie version. It is better than the studio series version.
Ok, for some foe parts on transformers is reasonable because it’s damn near impossible to make it like the movies or cartoons, HOWEVER! When a part like the chest of any transformer is a foe part, to me personally, it seems like a problem. Usually it is the front of the car mode so it’s just REAAAALLLYYY annoying to see the entire chest as a foe part.
Hey emgo I have Head that there is some new transformer prime one the (attack prime) (dark master) (angel engine) and I love u video it makes me happy thank u for the videos 😀😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍
I ordered this figure from Iacon the day you posted this review (including the discount code: Thanks!). I'm (sadly) still waiting for it to ship from pre-order, but I am so excited to get my hands on my own. Thanks for the review! I can't get enough of your channel!
That's really impressive; agree that this is probably as good as it gets while still transforming. I'd take 3A over it, but barely. Their engineer(s) must be insane in a good way.
Although I don't own it, my Transformers Toy of the Year 2021 goes to this guy. Just amazing...puts the official Masterpiece to shame. It's funny sometimes when people think of China they think cheap KO but in reality TransCraft and legends scale designer NewAge and even the old KO shops like Weijiang are putting out amazing product in recent years and formed an interesting relationship with Takara/Hasbro.
This is by far the best transformable figure I've ever seen. That tranaformation is so Damn funky. The details, sculpt, and proportions are spot on too!! This makes the movie masterpiece look like ass 🤣 Saw one for sale on Facebook just now, and honestly I'm thinking about getting it. Awesome review man!!!
Looks absolutely stunning! I really love the attention to details like the dirt effect on the vehicle and if it wasnt for me being content with my 3A Bee, i most likely would buy this version. But if they did a transforming Blitzwing, then i just have to cave in and buy them both. But 1 thing that kinda nitpicks me here is that if they did "Visible head syndrome" they could get away with it, claiming its screen accurate.

Dang, at first glance I wouldn't even think he transforms.
Same.
Transcraft? more like witchcraft
I thought it was just one of those ThreeA figures until I saw there was a transformation video for it.

This is what the masterpiece version should of looked. Otherwise this is a great representation of Bumblebee.
The MP is a glorified upscaled SS, and SS Beetlebee wasn't even good enough to deserve the SS label.
I think the mpm and ss versions were a good effort considering they were given unfinished concept art for reference and the time crunch of the release along with the movie. If they are planning to make a 2.0 tho, that would be great
Yeah
not to mention how painfully difficult it is to transform masterpiece bumblebee
Hard agree. Might have to pick this guy up and put the MPM one away, it's still a good figure, but this one is spot on
This is basically a ThreeA figure that can transform.
And he's smaller too just to be cheaky lol

WHAT??????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????!!!!!!!!!!!¡
They kind of have to use fake parts in robot mode because if you look at him in the movie his chest mass-shifts to transform.
Yeah, good eye. That detail was interesting
Me seeing the thumbnail: that cant possibly transform
Me now:😮
Same here
Me seeing the thumbnail: Ok another Bee movie figure, hope this won't be nightmare to watch
Me now:😮

What i appreciate is the little sacrifice of aesthetic on the vehicle mode, for a overall exquisite robot mode. Brilliant job

@@Rorschach771 lol I feel ya
To be fair this is expensive and probably bad quality and Hasbro has low standards

Does he really transform all those characters for comparisons? Mad respect

@@emgo316 no way that is some amazing stuff
My favorite thing about Emgo is the effort he puts into the comparisons (that and the skits at the end).
Really appreciate the size comparisons

Bumblebee with battle mask always makes me remember waspinator from beast wars.
Just to be sure, are you going to put this bee on your masterpiece movie shelf?
definitely

He is on my radar. Looks like he scales well with the MPMs and has a cool transformation.
The robot design is reminiscent of the Unique toys movie models. If I didn't already have a movie Bumblebee I would have gone for this.
I love how almost all the windows and panels are actually part of the car and not fake
Now, this is a real "transformer" toy. He actually transforms himself to either mode. Most of them just have panels around the robot to become a vehicle.
The only thing that is a detrimento real transformer toys is that they have to compromise some joints to be visible on the outside.
Oh god here comes the Bee puns again...
Don’t worry, they wont BEE that bad.

Wow, when I saw the thumbnail I thought it could not transform. Really screen accurate. Damn
What a paint job! The parts that are supposed to look like bare metal actually do look like bare metal. Really, really good-looking figure!
As much as i dislike faux chest pieces, this is a figure with a satisfying level of complexity that enables screen accuracy.
Surprised to see how close it was to the 3A bumblebee. Transcraft really did a goodjob on this one!
Man the panel lines are crazy I’m not the biggest bumblebee fan in the first place but this guy got some panels.
I like learning the things emgo doesn't care about in each new video.
LIKE I ALWAYS SAID I NEVER LIKED THE THIRD PARTY BUT EVER SINCE I'VE WATCHED YOUR THIRD PARTY REVIEWS I'VE HAD A CHANGE OF HEART!!!!:
I love how the background music makes this seem like an outtakes or funny moments...

he's not a pain to transform. not to me anyway.

The engineering on these toys are insane. 🔥🔥🔥
thank u emgo you are the main reason why i collect tf figures im almost 3yrs collecting... cant wait to have my transcraft bee ..:)

Thanks Emgo for this perfect and awesome review 😍🤤 this figure is a must have for our collection 💪 😁
Icon store! Hi!
Just in time as mine arrived today! Love your reviews man ‼️
The fact that we are even REMOTELY comparing a transforming figure to a ThreeA figure is bonkers.
I am in favor of faux chests if it looks better, such as with this figure.
preorderd this one on tfsource back in december and it just came in today, I love it
Love your vids been watching for years and I gotta say keep it up
Holy crap this is intricate
Looks absolutely stunning! I really love the attention to details like the dirt effect on the vehicle and if it wasnt for me being content with my 3A Bee, i most likely would buy this version. But if they did a transforming Blitzwing, then i just have to cave in and buy them both.
But 1 thing that kinda nitpicks me here is that if they did "Visible head syndrome" they could get away with it, claiming its screen accurate.
So he basically has the og bee transformation but very detailed and with pho parts
Nice
I kinda wish it was at least bigger though. Would have been perfect with my ToyWorld Prime.
It’s probably balanced compared to Blitzwing
With how amazing the robot mode looks I can forgive the obvious panel lines in vehicle mode.
Wow, based on thumbnail I thought this was a non-transforming model. Fantastic detail in robo-mode.
They should make a shatter and dropkick like this
Love the paint job
I do like this look for Bumblebee, the only grip I have is that the mouthpart looks like a babies dummy and I cannot unsee it.
3:19 BUT EMGO!!.. What happened it you there??
It's look like jump out off the screen.. Great figure emgo.. 👍👍👍👍
He looks incredible
