3A TRANSFORMERS - DOTM Bumblebee Premium Scale Figure - Announcement

[BlueBoyScout]

This guy does look really impressive, can't wait to see more pictures from everyone when he arrives!

Mine was delivered today. Wasn't supposed to be here until Friday!
It's lighter than l expected, but man is this thing HUGE!

It's everything that l wanted it to be, though a little complex figuring out the pose that l think looks best. Soooo awesome!
Also, forget about having it stand fully upright in a Detolf.

If l were to make a Prime1-ish base for it, at 1st glance many won't be able to tell the difference. I can hardly wait for the others. I really hope 3A makes Ironhide and Shockwave.

The only negative was that my Bee came with a piece that broke off. Or rather...the glue gave out on a small piece. Nothing that superglue won't fix. Even my girlfriend is awestruck.

Of all my figures...this is my 2nd favorite after my HOTTOYS T-800.
Bumblebee rivals my HotToys PowerLoader

How would you rate the build quality, plastic, etc.? Does it seem durable or more fragile? With all the small moving pieces that's the one thing that scares me some.
Thanks

In my opinion it's similar to Hasbro's Human Alliance line.
If it tumbles (unlikely because it stands very good) on a shelf it will be fine, though a 3 foot drop will break something.

I think the light weight is due to it being hollow, but it's sturdy enough to let my 8 year old nephew handle it without concern.

So that means that he is taller than 15"? That's where his official specs put him but I was hoping that he was a bit taller.

So it doesn't really sound fragile from that I guess. I'd still be nervous with some of the small moving parts. Is there a specific type of glue you would use on the part that came loose?

He can't talk right now.. Busy posting pictures

Hahaha....nah, had to attend a wake.
I'm back now.
I'm simply going to use any superglue l have laying around.

I was also trying to take a quick cellphone picture for you guys.
All suck due to my crappy phone being crappy.

So jealous of you guys! I P.O. this day 1 for the Exclusive version and still haven't receive the e-mail when they will send it out

Sadly I had to pass on bee. I saw him in person and my lawd...he is gorgeous. However, he looks too big next to prime and megs...

Or they're too small next to bee. Oh whatever, you know what I mean.

Congrats to those that have him or are getting him.

I'm going to pair him up with my Prime 1 Optimus.

Scale wise I think it's quite accurate.

 

[fosing]

is that from sideshow or from 3A direct?

 

[FACEBOX]

I got mine from Sideshow.
You guys are going to love it!

Can't wait until tomorrow. Can you refresh my memory.. It needs 9 of a certain type of battery. What type of battery's are needed?

Thanks 2littlemoney



I tried with my cellphone. Here's a pic next to a can of soda for scale. He won't fit in a Detolf....so for now I'll put it on a coffee table with his fiends.

went in and sent 3A a query for my shipping update.

Did the same. Their answer was "soon".
