Today we going to look at the new Deluxe Class Stealth Bumblebee from Hasbro. This is the packaging comparison with the previous version of Bumblebee in original color scheme.
This is the back of the Package and both are in MOSC (Mint on Sealed Card).
This is just a close up on the box before I am going to cut open and take out the figure inside.... hard to imagine what is coming next right?
Okay, this is not double vision but just a front and back of wired BB in car mode but already cut opened the box.
This is how the bottom of Stealth BB looks like and what is obviously different is the head of BB. And not sure you can recall during the movie, this is how BB looks like during the battle mode. Also you will see most of the parts are changed from black color resin to Metallic color resin which is great, just like the one used on TRANS SCANNING Takara Tomy Series. Some of the part are being painted from yellow base plastic part which is not good as once there is a chip, will expose the yellow base color.
This is the top view, most of the part are actually repainted to Black and not the original black from the resin used. The front and rear bumper is made of Black color resin.
Okay now is the transformation part......it is almost there :)
This is how the front view looks like after full transformation. And the Canon ball weapon is molded using the Metallic resin which is a plus in this figure.
And here is the back view. A few comments to conclude my review, the Stealth Bumblebee is for sure a MUST for TF fans eventhough it is the same BB mold use except the battle mode head.
Pro : It has better quality... less flash cut to remove which is the termination point of molding process. Most of the parts are painted which mean it looks less plastic and the Metallic resin used on most part will definately worth to keep this in your TF collections.
Con : Bad color combinations. And a bit too pricy, again considering it only come 1 pcs in every carton of asst. Deluxe class.
And here is the close up on the Battle Mode head of BB.
