And another TF thread degenerates into a FR ego trip.

Yeah i know.
Strange, ive come here and suddenly got the urge to eat some cake.

Transforming or non transforming?

At the end of the day I think the best thing is just to put FR on "ignore" and carry on enjoying the hobby as best you can as he's not worth bothering with.

If others want to suck up to him just because it's the done thing, let 'em get on with it, doesn't mean those of us that know what his real character is have to stop enjoying the awesomeness of Transformers.

so you'd really put people on ignore for liking a persons customs?

or get yourself banned from every board so you have not the choice

I'd ignore people about anything if it bothered me to the point where I stopped enjoying the hobby,

More like "manipulate moderators and cause trouble to get people banned so they dont have the chance."

Notice how on every board that you knew i was a member of i have ONLY been banned due to things YOU have done. Every board where you are either not a member or on my ignore list everything is fine.
Funny how that works isnt it?
And speaking of ignoring people, time to once again tick that box next to your name.
Thanks for the tip bcm. Now im gonna get back to my transforming cake with random gundam parts stuck all over it and tons of LED's to make it look like a tacky christmas tree.

Thats what its there for isnt it?

Liking someone elses stuff is fine. Having to put up with constant butt-licking and ego-stroking when someone doesnt deserve it is more than enough grounds for ignore.

thanks man, can't wait to work on them.

Yep, saves a lot of hassle IMO.

What's going on? What heads?

I liked your original post better.

Oh just FYI if anyones interested im not actually "banned from every site" like certain people claim i am, thats just another example of spreading lies and stirring the pot.
I have active accounts on all TF sites including TFW, Seibertron and allspark, as well as sector 70 and so on.
The only one i am not active on is FR's own little elitist, money driven-clique-site "pro-customizers" which i never stood a chance at since he was foolishly made an admin there.

The more you know.

Thats the last time you'll hear about this from me unless someone else brings it up.

I decided to be a bit more diplomatic as I don't really want to get into any protracted arguments.

I let the online "community" ruin my enjoyment of Star Wars to the point where I lost all intrest in it so I'm not going to let the same thing happen with Transformers.

Some new pics of Battle Blade Bumblebee have surfaced,

https://item.taobao.com/auction/item_detail.htm?item_num_id=4991769858

Looks like Hasbro have taken several aspects of the Human Alliance design and put them into a Deluxe as well as adding a couple of new features.

It's about time we got a Movie BB with two hands as well as the option to flip the cannon barrel into place ( needs repainting though ) and the addition of the axe from the ROTF videogame is pretty cool as well.

 

[Dubcustomz]

Wow thats horrible. The chest is all wrong.

 

[Ra88]

The chest does look a bit weird, but other then that it looks pretty damn good. The battlemask is a major bonus as well.

 

[bcm77]

The chest looks like it splits like the HA version but the two sections haven't been pulled out and then angled so that they form a sort of "v" shape.

Maybe it's mistransformed slightly or just needs a minor modification so that it will do so.

Either way it's the best Deluxe version of Movie BB yet.

 

[frenzy_rumble]

most likely mistransformed. I'm still loving my battle ops BB. I wish hasbro would have taken the engineering and design on BOBB and applied it to HA or a deluxe...

 

[Dubcustomz]

I still dont like it. I have enough versions of movie bb now. I do like the two hands though, at least they got that right but the chest is just too large and unless the parts that split can be angled like the HA version its totally useless.
Plus he looks too "fat" up top dont you think? Maybe its just me..

Ignore list ftw!

What can I say? This is my favorite Bumblebee to date. Very accurate to his on-screen persona, it's an amazing figure.

Prior to painting, I made some slight modifications to Bumblebee. I replaced the green LED in his head with a blue LED (not too easy) which required fully rewiring from the board. I also replaced his left hand with a fully articulated 4 digit hand, with wrist and 2pt. finger movement. Because his knees seemed to crap out on me (not too tight) I replaced the springs inside the ratcheting joint, ultimately making them tighter and holding him up better.

I removed the faux fingers/hand on his right hand/cannon, and installed a translucent red part which appears to "glow" when the LED (red) is triggered.

painted primarily with:
alclad (chrome effects)
house of colors silver & chrome
custom mix yellow/gold with pearl/iridescent finish
