Nifty. Spychangers for the modern world!

Yes, I know it's wide. I'll resize it when I get home.

You're working really long shifts, man... you should ease up...

Not too shabby. I definitely like the white Bumblebee. Looks like I'll have quite the army of minibots soon...

I like the Huffer and the Warpath. Any clue on the prices. I'm hoping they don't double the price, like they do with most premiums.

BBTS has them for $49.99, same as anime Astrotrain.

Youch!! That's a lot for minibots, especially since you can get the same six figures from action-hq and just repaint them and put a few decepticon stickers on them.

Does anyone else think redeco Bumblebee looks like a polar bear?

Sorta, more like a penguin I would say.

too much money, especially when I only like two of those, and I'm prolly gonna get #12, so I really don't need all those doubles of molds. If they made them the same price as #12, I'd get them as well.

I see that.

Hmmm... three out of those six look really good (Bumblebee, Huffer and Gears). But I think I'll just stick to getting the original set reissue.

No... definitely more polar bear than penguin.
