Trans Scanning Bumblebee

Photobucket
Long time no see! TF gallery again! Today I got Trans Scanning Bumblebee in Akihabara. Henkei Astrotrain is also on stock now. It is sweet but I didn't get it as there was no discount for him ;P. I'm too tired to make a review. Just have fun with the pictures.

In package.

Very poseable body. It should be the same as Trans Scanning Optimus Prime, but I'm not sure as I haven't touched my TS OP yet ~_~

Protoform Bumblebee is still very poseable. I like it.

Entry mode...

Earth mode is not so poseable due to the armor. Anyway, it is still nice.

No surprise for car mode, but it is amazing that I can transform it to car mode without removing any parts. Well done Takara!

Overall, I like Trans Scanning series. Small but complicated.

Is it just me or does it look like the roof & doors are a different shade of yellow to the rest of the car?

Yes, the roof and doors are painted but the other parts are dye in plastic. It is actually not so obvious when you see it. The camera flash made it look so different.

I think the trans scanning series is a great idea. It's like having 2 figures in one minus the posability with the armor. I don't know how many trans scanning figures are out but I am getting Prime for sure.

The total cost for Trans Scanning
Optimus Prime and Bumblebee,
Optimus being $40.14 USD, and Bumblebee being $36.32 USD, adds up to the cost of $76.46 USD.

Once I find out shipping & handling prices, I'm going to order both of them.
