Is Battle Blades Bumblebee Really The BEST Bumblebee Ever?? | #transformers HFTD Bumblebee Review
You can fold the back hood panel. There's a space under there so it can fold more which cleans up his back completely.
Came here to say something similar
I wouldn't say _completely,_ but yeah there's literally a slot molded there.
Came here to say the same thing XD Flip the hood panel down and inside, and the entire backpack swings up onto his upper back, presto!
Same thing 😂😂😂😂
Came here to say the same thing
This figure was my favorite movie Bumblebee as a kid. To this day I have yet to come across one with such a fun and not overly complicated transformation.
Do you still have it?
Battle blade bumblebee is the GOAT of movie bumblebees
Gamer of All Time moment indeed!
This and the studio series are my favorite bumblebees
Masterpiece tho…
Happy brithday, great review as always but I do gotta mention that the backpack can compress a bit more than what you showed. The top of it (the part that comes from the car hood) can flip down and tab into the back of the hest, allowing the backpack to stay higherbup and not limit the waist rotation.
2009 was peak Bayverse toy era. The Leader OP and Starscreams were basically MP quality, but for $40.
This is one of the first Transformers I ever got when I was young and has been a consistent favorite ever since. It makes me happy to see how many other people love this toy as well.
I get why they made him have gorilla arms, because the cgi model also has them (it doesn't even have biceps swivels, the just rotate his arms at the shoulder, which they only fixed in tlk). Also for the battle mask, I find if you push it up from the point that sits around his nose, you can get it to slide forward a bit without launching it off his head. Hope that helps!
The only thing that I didn't like about this figure was that the AXE IS FACING THE WRONG WAY.
Oh well. I still say ROTF/HFTD was one of the best times to be a movie toys fan. Those were all awesome.
The back does compress better than that, though. The front slice can fold in inside the torso (there is a clear space for the rounded "point" of that piece), allowing the windshield piece to sit a bit higher. If you do it that way the back is not as flat, though, so I guess "better" is relative, but personally I prefer it that way.
Happy birthday, man! Yep, this version of Bumblebee was my favorite as a kid; always loved the transformation and the fact that it was the only Bumblebee to include an actual transforming cannon. Missed that on other Movie Bee toys, though I understand why they did that. This was a gift from my sister and the first Bee toy I had, so it means a lot to me. Thanks for the review!
I remember looking at this figure in the little pamphlets they had with the toys always wanted one of these.
Really cool to finally see you cover one of my favorite Transformers of all time. This one's special to me, and always nice to hear people sing it's praises :)
Some small comments-
3:47 and it pretty much predicted Bumblebee's arsenal in Bumblebee (2018)
4:09 I used oil to lubricate his mask. The good news is that it now slides down easier without any effort, but the bad news is that while it doesn't fall off easily, it doesn't stay in a straight position while sliding and "bends around" on the slides. Still, it makes it better.
Revenge of the Fallen/HftD toyline is darn good.
One of my favorites as a kid but mine became really loose over time. Also you mistranformed the backpack the top hood can fold into it so it doesn’t stick out
One of the BEST pre-studio series bees. Seriously.
Found ya
You're amazing, I really admire your work
Happy birthday. I remember snatching him up back in the day at Walmart and still love seeing him on my shelf. Perfect car/robot mode and basically, there’s no need for me to continue getting bumblebee figures as long as I have him. If anyone can get one…GET HIM!
I remember getting this guy on Ebay, who I wanted so badly because I saw him in a video I enjoyed made by my influence in stop motion, and while he was more expensive than what I normally bought at that time, I enjoyed this guy a lot.
One interesting feature put here is his blue Energon blade. In fact, I made two just for my MPM 03 out of translucent plastic and blue paint. He was also one of the few Bumblebees who could turn his hand into a cannon without removing anything (others had it as a hand held accessory or a permanently fixed part). He also is probably the only Deluxe (though he is the same size as a present day Voyager) with a battle mask that can fold down, while ones like SS and previous toylines made it impossible to deploy one.
He was pretty interesting to customize, too. Since he was missing some details, I repainted his blade and cannon. While kibble was pretty inaccurate and his shoulder-chest part seemed pretty oversized, making him look more clumsy than other toys, I managed to redesign his backpack, letting it split in the middle and folding into his armpits, plus let parts of his thigh kibble attach to the backpack as well. However, while most other customizers did make his whole canopy rotate, I avoided it since I didn't really like it so much. Soon, I converted it into DOTM by smearing the rims with a translucent black paint, adding black details, and attaching a spoiler on his rear end. For some reason, I actually like the DOTM Camaro much more, probably because the mods done to the on-screen vehicle seemed to make it stand out more.
And after Bumblebee (2018), I saw that this guy "predicted" the rebooted franchise's arsenal, which has a flip down mask, hand cannon, and an arm mounted blade. I am also planning to make some video on one of my secondary channels comparing him to the reboot Bumblebee by putting BB Bumblebee and MPM 07 together.
So I would say that BB Bumblebee is my favorite deluxe Bumblebee, and even beats the SS 44, 74, and 87. While his backpack and kibble are pretty annoyingly inaccurate, it can be easily redesigned if you can have the creativity and right tools, plus black paint.
But of course, nothing beats MPM 03 in accuracy for Bayverse Bumblebee toys, at least the transformable ones.
This was MY childhood bumblebee. To me this will ALWAYS be the definitive Bayverse bumblebee
I had it. My mom gifted to me on Christmas. I really was happy and enjoyed it. It is really one of the best Bumblebee toy.
The backpack is mistransformed the hood panel actually folds under behind the windshield and then the whole backpack folds up to the back
When I lived in South Carolina growing up this was my first ever bumblebee
God I loved this guy so much
Happy birthday my g
I miss this guy
Cousin tore up my room and broke this guy beyond recognition and it was a gift to me so it was really special
Best bumblebee I’ve ever had I set them all to this standard but none come close to this guy
this was my first bumblebee toy. I really miss that toy.
Hunt for the decepticons was peak transformers mainline toys. Ironhide deluxe was small but awesome
I feel like I'm the only person on Earth who doesn't like how the torso looks on this Bumblebee (the way it slants down makes it look rather boxy IMO) and that's been the primary reason I've never picked this mould up.
My absolute first transformer ever, and I broke him trying to put the mask down and chucked him into the bin because I was like 4.
RIP my goat gone but never forgotten
This was the first transformer I ever owned and to this day I still have it. It was my favorite toy and it held up surprisingly well...also happy borkday
he so good i use him as a stand in Movie BB on the movie masterpiece self as i missed the his MP. he dose a really good job fitting in
I had as a kid that version were the arms become the roof of the car and It also ad a louncing missail i don't remember the name😅😢
Happy birthday man! It’s my birthday too (you already know that tho, it’s rickroll from discord btw) so a happy birthday to us both!
Oh my God I have that one literally my first transformer toy ever
And because I had it when I was like six to seven the door wings are just gone, there somewhere I just don't know where I put them
My bumblebee (97 Camaro version) from the first transformers movie has the same issue as yours does with the axe, but on mine it is the hood/grill of his car mode, it loves to just open up and pop his head out over the smallest little tap or numb, honestly annoying. So i keep him in robot mode and use my 2010 Camaro bumblebee in car mode for display.
My favorite bumblebee is my foot tall ultimate bumblebee that dances, makes noise, shoots blasters, and a missle, and has a few radio talk sounds. Def the best bumblebee figure.
I played with this figure as a kid all the time. Wish I new where it was lol
God i hope i still have this thing tucked away this was the best one ever i remember i broke my first one so i bought another i liked it so much this was back in 2009 2010
I loved playing with this toy as a kid
This was the first transformer toy I ever got, so it means alot to me. Mine broke a few years ago, so it's cool to see a modern review of it.
btw Happy Birthday!
you've got the backpack wrong, the roof piece folds in as well and the whole thing goes up.
Just got this guy back myself. He was my first Transformer and I lost him but ordered him and got it back! He’s so good!!
This bee was my holy grail of bees... Happy Birthday!
Came here randomly while browsing yt high, this the one I had in my childhood and had the mask fall off too, the doors also fell off easily but nice it’s also my favorite
YOOO, It's my birthday too! Turning 17, so that's cool
You can fold the top part of the backpack (the rest of the hood) into the backback and get it to compress a little more. One of my favourite toys from when I was a kid and wish I still had it, but the door snapped.
Happy birthday dude! Just wanna warn you this figure does break easy. Mine did at least
I got this toy from my older sister as a birthday present years ago when it was on the shelves, and ever since could never find a better movie Bumblebee that matched this. Because of that I still have this figure to this day sitting on my shelf. It is unmatched.
On a side note, I will let you know you do have the back of it mistransformed. The hood part of the back is supposed to tuck into the back and raise most of the back parts up a little bit.
Happy birthday my dude and also seriously I always wanted this toy as a kid
So the thing about the back is that you have to do it in a certain way, and it tabs in perfectly
OMG I WAS LOOKING DOR THE NAME OF THIS SPECIFIC BUMBLEBEE I USED TO HAVE. THANK YOU!!!!!
Happy birthday man love your vids
I love the added photos of Ruby whenever she barks
good review, happy birthday, young man.
I had it in christmas like 10 years ago, and I broke both feets the first time I transformed it on my own
The nostalgia hits so hard i might die
oh yo this was the bumblebee I had as a kid I couldn’t remember the name of it till now. Great figure !!
I got the ultimate movie BB for $8 at a Goodwill
I have a Dark Of The Moon Bumblebee and, to be fair, you can lock in place the cest pieces: one you have unfolded them from bumper position to cest position, just push them in, and you'll hear a click, and the cest pieces will lock in place
Holy shit! I've been looking for what this version is called! I had this as a kid and never knew how to search for it. Definitely the best Bee
I'm personally on the side of DotM/Cyberfire Bee. Battle Blade just looks too lanky and has too long of a torso for me.
My brother has one and it was my favorite when I was younger
Happy birthday man. Love your reviews
Happy Birthday! 🎉 By the way this was my favourite Bumblebee toy when I was younger, unfortunately I broke it by unscrewing it and loosing part. Beacause unscrewing transformers was my obby I guess.
Happy Birthday That Toy Guy
Happy 25th Birthday that toy guy from a fellow Canadian
happy birthday bro, stay blessed and be happy
YOOO holy shit you and I share a birthday! And this is my childhood’s favorite toy. That’s awesome.
Sorry I'm late man, but Happy birthday and I gotta admit. This is the best bumblebee I've had.
Happy birthday bro we also share the same birthday.
I still have my one of this Bee, but his front wheel was snapped off. And it always annoyed me that the axe was backwards
Happy Birthday!! Love your reviews!!
Happy birthday my dawg love your vids man you got me back into collecting transfomers and I love it but anyways keep up the good work
Finally!!!!!
I was waiting to see my guy up here!!!!
He was my first 4tg level character 😊
3:56 I'm sure it's more than the height that caused Takara to reissue him as a Voyager; the parts count and overall complexity of the various size classes has dropped so far over the past 12 years that what is today a Voyager falls within the mass and parts count of what used to be a deluxe. I'm nerdy and obsessive enough to have weighed figures from various eras and counted the number of parts in each one.
Happy birthday, keep making awesome stuff!
And then it came the movie advanced version from takara 2014 and, that is the best version
The mass shifting from vehicle to robot feels very much like Animated era engineering
I'm pretty sure the day I bought this I grew my first chest hair. Good times.
I'll admit... I broke the battle mask... When I was a kid... Now I hate myself
You can compress the backpack more! The hood flap folds in, there is a groove in his spine for the front of it:)
Happy birthday to a great reviewer!
In terms of proportions, his proportions are actually not accurate. Torso too long, arms too skinny, shoulders too low, upper torso too wide, neck too long, legs too long. It’s what people would want from a regular human-proportioned Bumblebee, which is why he FEELS like he has better proportions. In reality, Bumblebee doesn’t have human proportions, and it’s the one thing that keeps him from being the definitive deluxe Bumblebee for me.
Happy Birthday Man you got some greats Gifts🎉
Happy birthday! Maybe belated now. Never found this guy.
Happy birthday, the review is very cool, congratulations
i miss this figure so fucking much man
Happy birthday dude, I hope you had a good one
Happy birthday man! Hope you have an awesome year! Till all are one!🎂 💙
Got this one as a kid. Still going strong. Despite losing the right door.
Just got him. Definitely don’t regret it any bit.
Happy birthday man!
Happy birthday bro love the content 💯 👌
Happy birthday big man. Enjoy your day
Happy birthday!!!
I like that Bumblebee :D
A lot to appreciate about this rendition but the disproportionate chest, trigger happy sword, and fiddley transformation has really diminished my love for it over the years. Detail, and paint however are on point. As simplified as the DOTM deluxe was I found it significantly more fun to mess with, as it was nicely compact in both modes without any flimsy bits from I what I remember anyway.
I have one of these, and mine actually doesn't have the blade problem, it stays in well. As your fan since 20k... haha..
Happy birthday, man
Happy birthday you did a good review on your birthday
I feel like I shouldn’t “bee” on earth sometimes
I turned 25 this week too yayy 🎉🎉🎉
I still love my Battle Blades Bumblebee. Got it for about $20 at Tates Comics, and still don't regret my purchase. This is totally better than the SS Bumblebee. Still, this could've used some more paint
Happy brithday you are one of the best tf youtuber
