This review is from: Transformers: Dark of the Moon - MechTech Leader - Bumblebee (Toy)
Dark of the Moon Mech Tech leader Bumblebee is a sweet addition for any transformer fans collection.This bad boy has more firepower than any enemy could handle.Bumblebee's Mech Tech weapon system is one big piece containing two six shot cannon guns on each side with a pulse blaster in the middle with target sighting.The weapon system does light up while making blaster and missle sounds.Bumblebee also has automatic conversion sounds as well.The weapon system fits on the back end of the camaro mode while being on his back in robot mode.The only drawback to having the weapon system on Bumblebee in robot mode is that it makes him back heavy,so you might have to lean him against something solid.The detail on the figure is excellent with the addition of a spoiler in vehicle mode.The transformation level is intermediate meaning if you have plenty of experience with transformers there is mid-level difficulty.If you are a parent buying for a child of 5-6 or younger you might have to help some in the process.Honestly Bumblebee looks more difficult than he is to transform.Their are a few tricky parts that will become easier with time.In the beginning on the back behind Bumblebee's head you have to slide the part up which if you go ahead and position the roof part up first it is easier to do.It is three steps to fold up his feet to end up forming the back end of the camaro so make sure that the smaller size grey prong is folded underneath the foot.The other part is folding the arms just right to fit inside the car,just remember that the upper panels on his arms should be facing out,so the torso plate can snap into place underneath.The durability is outstanding to where Bumblebee is very solid for acting out battle scenes in either mode.I would like to have seen Bumblebee with realistic rubber tires,and the cannon/arm combo like on the Battle Ops Bumblebee but this is still an excellent figure overall.The poseability is very good ,but works better for robot mode without the Mech Tech system.There also is a third transformation only shown on the instructions where the arms flip out along the side to give Bumblebee a little more firepower in vehicle mode.The only other thing is between the torso plate underneath and the prongs folded up at the back end creates a little clutter on the underside in camaro mode.This Bumblebee isn't perfect,but is still an excellent figure overall.Bottom line Bumblebee is a high quality,well-made,10 out of 10 figure all fans should enjoy.I highly recommend Dark of the Moon Leader Bumblebee to all transformer fans and collectors alike.Transformers Rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ORDER HERE to avoid dissapointment
