I'm begging to think some great evil has threatened Hasbro with killing them all if they actually paint their movie figures, the molds are ok, the paintjobs SUCK, I expected an exclusive to ACTUALLY PAINT THE GOD DAMN TOYS FROM THE WAIST DOWN PROPERLY.
Sorry, but High Octane Bee looks bad like that, and so does the new mold, which actually is pretty good and finally has the mini wings on the deluxe scale and remembers that Nitro Bee had the wheels inside the ankles, something no other Bumblee other than the MP has gotten right.

That box is purdy but the price is sure to be absurd. So I'll just stick with the new Bee when it come out by itself.

That is a pretty awesome set! But I have 2 of the 3 already, so I'll pass

On my end, I got rid of so many toys that I see no point of getting a batch like these. I'll try to limit my purchases on only relevant Transformers from now on.

Amazon.com is the exclusive retailer for the Transformers Tribute line in the US and their listing for the redeco of the first movie Leader Optimus Prime toy is now live. The toy, listed as Transformers Movie Anniversary Edition Optimus Prime, can be bought as of now for the price of $79.99. The listing also included new official images. Are any of you going to pull the trigger? Let us know!

Meh i'll get it if it's cheaper at TFcon i'm more into the Orion Pax/ WFC Prime two pack

[Carnivius_Prime]

Is pretty. It may have been eclipsed by the RotF and Masterpiece movie Primes but that's still one of the best Transformer toys ever made in my opinion. Quicker to actually transform than those ones too.

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Such a beautiful figure. Still wish they had used the mold with the sword and the longer antennae

[Evil Eye]

The chrome is nice, but the grey plastic kills it, and the lack of the orange fade is criminal. I'd rather they'd nixed the chrome if it had meant the rest of the grey could have been silver.

A shame as that mold looks pretty cool. Sure it's not accurate but it looks...neat. Like, I kinda wish the movie model had looked more like that- blocky and classically robotic but still with the modern elements needed to make it look realistic.

The Premium version is still the best. Hunt that one down instead.

I don't. I like this figure yeah but I was real pleased they managed to do one more like actual movie Prime's proper shape and proportions with the RotF figure cos I far prefer his design over super blocky Prime's anyway. There's been enough blocky Primes.

Orion Pax's Titan Master doesn't have an official name, right?

[ExciKaiser]

Not on my knowledge.

Let's call him Dion.

[Jelze Bunnycat]

Let's call him Dion.

You monster! You're saying that poor Dion was cannibalised by his best friend Orion?

Kidding, kidding

Seriously though, I'm leaning more towards calling him "Barrelroller", after the eHobby Orion's Targetmaster.

Baltmatrix actually got the thing and here's the video review!

Man, I really want that Orion Pax (and would also take that WFC Prime too) but the price for the pack's too expensive for me. Hopefully it'll show up at Ross or some other discount outlet and I'll be able to pick it up then.

You can have it for $30 shipped from amazon if you have prime, or $30 plus shipping if you don't. Much better than the $60 that it originally showed up for elsewhere.

Now THAT'S a price I'm willing to pay!
If only I had a credit card to order stuff online with.

If these things were available at Toys R Us, it'd be much better for me. Then I'd be able to price match it to Amazon's and be a happy camper.
But alas, it isn't so.

Here is what you can try. Start placing an order on Amazon just to see what they would charge for tax (if any) and shipping. Once you know your total, go to a Walgreens or similar store that sells the amazon gift cards. I'm guessing you would need to buy in $5 intervals, so hopefully your total would be just under $35 or $40, and you would basically lose the leftover change, or you can find something really cheap on Amazon to eat up the rest.

I have it and like both figures, and $30 for 2 deluxes is basically retail, if not slightly less.

After the packaging and the stock renders, we now also have the stock photos of the actual toys included in the Transformers Tribute Bumblebee three pack set! Courtesy of the Amazon Japan listing, we've mirrored the vehicle and robot modes of the three figures in their new tweaked decos for this live-action movie celebration pack - check them out!

[Sigma Magnus]

I want them so badly...might have to swap the head of the '76 'Bee with the original's though.

[Prime Target]

I need comparisons with the originals

In due time, m'boy. In due time.

One thing for sure is the most different one will be the classic '70s version.

[Lucky Logician]

Forgive me, but I don't get the black version. This is a tribute to movie Bee, but when was he ever black in the movie?

That one time in Age of Extinction maybe? I honestly haven't watched AoE in like two years so I can't remember if he actually turned into the black vintage Camaro in the movie, but the figure that this is a repaint of came from that film's line, so I'm assuming it might have happened at some point. (Maybe early in the film, similarly to Optimus' "Evasion Mode"? I dunno.) If it did ever happen, that's the movie when it did at least
