Photos of Japanese Excl Movie Legends Bumblebee

February 23, 2009 | By Juliana Heng In Toy observations, Toy review, Toyfics |

As per LEon’s suggestion, here is my blog post and photos of all 3 Bumblebee figures in my Movie Transformers Legends collection (it wasn’t easy taking these photos as they kept running and racing around the photo studio in excitement).

Movie Legends Bumblebee trio.

Here’s Japanese exclusive clear Bumblebee (on extreme right) showing his fellow Movie Legends Bumblebees the crumpled looking original plastic package he came in.  The other 2 were too polite to tell him that they came MOC and MIB, even as normal store-released figures, haha!

Here we have all 3 Autobots posing for a group photo in their robot modes. From left to right (battle-damaged, clear and normal Bumblebees).  Their faces have the same colors and they have an Autobot symbol on their upper chests.  Only battle-damaged Bumblebee’s (extreme left) logo is in red.  Normal Bumblebee (extreme right) has extra blue paintings on his legs.

Over here, all 3 Autobots are posing for a group photo in their car modes.  Battle-damaged Bumblebee (extreme left) has extra ‘burnt marks’ painted on him but at least he has a painted rear screen, unlike normal Bumblebee (extreme right) which left it out.  The rear stripes on the latter are also overpainted from the boot to the rear screen.  Overall, I find that battle-damaged Bumblebee most resembles the run-down 1974 Camaro in the movie.  This figure came in a 2-pack with Decepticon Scorponok.

I wanted take more photos, but my camera ran out of battery power so I stopped at 3 photos.  Anyway, the 3 Bumblebees were getting impatient and they immediately zoomed off when I announced that the photo session had to be ended early.  Till now, I haven’t found where in my room are they hiding at yet… I just hope that I don’t accidentally step on any of them tonight…!

      Thanks for fulfilling my request. Legend BB are cute! I only got the Optimus Prime of Legend series.

      Hi LEon,

      Hee, I was gonna blog about them anyway :)

      I love the Movie TF Legends, though Legends Optimus Prime is a bit smaller than the rest, when he shouldn’t be :P

      Hi Bany,

      That’s a nice catch! And it comes with its box too! Mine had no such box:

      Hi Bany,

      Nope, I haven’t seen this guy here before, only in online photos. Maybe he was sold here before but I didn’t have the good luck of meeting him :P

      What’s your budget for him? :)

      Hi Juliana,

      Maybe $50. I read over the Net that that was the going rate before. :)

      Hi Bany,

      I think the price may have dropped already, like most of the other TFTM toys since ROTF toys came out. Keep searching for a bargain, I’m sure you’ll find one :D
