Who’s The Better Generations Bumblebee??? | #transformers Classics Bumblebee And Netflix Bumblebee
That 3-pack bumblebee set was my first introduction to transformers. Sadly though, all three were broken or damaged in some way. Animated was the one I struggled to convert since the window panels kept popping off the ball joints. The movie Bee I actually enjoyed converting, however the head mold (which I loved) was never great about staying on the body and constantly popped off. Classics bee was my favorite mold, and my favorite to convert (as it was the easiest), but over time the clear plastic for the chest became brittle from overuse and I found my favorite little Bumblebee in 2 pieces. He lived a good life, and how full of adventures it was. I’ll miss him much. That was the greatest box set I’ve ever gotten.
Same. Got it back in 2008.
Rip classics bee
I used to stick Starscream's landing gear in his cockpit in robot mode.
That's where my OG screamer from when I was a kid in 80s front landing gear is to this day, My friend had Dirge and did the same.
Personally I like both of these molds for what they offer. So while I have put the newer Bee/Cliffjumper/Hubcap in my main displays, the Cliffjumper version of the older mold is with my headcanon transdimensional crew as homage to him being the version that got dragged into the Shattered Glass universe originally.
I like this idea
the netflix bee mold would be a lot better if it wasn’t only available as two exclusives
It has been used six times. Netflix Bee, Earthrise Cliff, Shattered Glass Goldbug, Worlds Collide 4-pack bee, Buzzworthy Bumblee SS86 Cliff, and Creatures Collide 4-pack Goldbug.
Only netflix/goldbug uses the beetle mold.
CJ, Bugbite, creatures collide BB, shattered glass bb use the CJ mold with the square-ish car
@@therandomnessstrikes1435
i’m aware
i meant specifically the beetle
1:32 actually, about g1 Starscreams landing gear. If you position it just right the landing gear can fit in the cockpit while in robot mode.
sheesh

One thing I always liked about the partsforming bit of that Cliffjumper mould is that the "shield" can be used either as a "strap" shield or a center-grip. Just some nice playability, I think.
The price was high for what he is, but at the time he was too much fun to fiddle with and he was adorable so I didn't care.
Classics bumblebee was my first transformers toy that I loved. Loved it so much, lost the boat, then the figure. Then, I got the figure again years later, lost the boat again, and then gave the figure away. Still love it though.
The ultimate show down.....
I think it’s nostalgia but reveal the shield goldbug will always hold a special place in my heart that’s the first review I remember watching and I just love it
Classics bumble turns into yoda's favorite vehicle, easy win.
Really need to see that animated bumblebee thats supposed to come next year.
Yea, if it’s going to be yet of another remold of cliff jumper then I’m gonna be mad
Can’t wait for that, also means we can het a Wasp figure actually released.
@@tfuniverse1651 oh my god yes please
@@joshuavis2736 Same, it’s the repaint to do tbh. Also unlike that unreleased version it would have the proper Wasp head not Bee’s head but green.
@@tfuniverse1651 if it doesn’t fit into a subline surely they do a Gen selects release
Starscream can store his landing gear in the cockpit
I always really loved the classics mold. One of my top figures I used to own.
i’ll say both are good
So true, so true
What makes a man turn neutral, Kif...?
Both is good
Respect
These might be the worst figure I've seen all this year.
I love the newer mold because it's super easy to get it into a running pose since he balances so easy on one foot.
I don't know if goldbug/bumblebee has it, But the cliff mould has a hinge below the neck that allows him to look down a lot more
Its kinda hard to get out but it's pretty fun for some poses
They both have it👍
I would break every bone in bumblebees body for the amount of times he was an inconvenience
I remember wanting to get the two pack with generations bumblebee and aoe bumblebee
Good times :)
13:23 One gun was on a black mold and the other was on a gold one. They changed the colors for other parts and just painted the gun to match cause it wasn't as important.
Ha, you said "It's bugged me" when talking about VW Bee's bumper not being flush 😂
I do like that they used classic Bee's car in TF Devastation.
After you said Netmix I got an ad
I gave my original classics bee away years ago, if memory serves you can clip the jet pack on his arm panel like a "bow" just to give him something.
I really want that Goldbug repaint.
Try flipping Goldbug's backpack the other way up, it gives a similar hood to the G1 version.
It can do anything you want Up and Down left right paint chip😂 you the best man
Still really like the Generations Bee. Despite some missing articulation I feel this and the Voyage Prime were the best of that eras G1 updates. No weapons with the original release but the hand holes allowed him to use the oversized guns from I think it was DOTM Laserbeak which was a really good look for him. As for the MP Bumblebee Movie for the price at the time It's a really good display representative of the character with fantastic articulation, metal bits and a really convoluted transformation scheme which miraculously holds together solidly in both modes.
Your RTS is actually misstransformed. You have to lift the clip for the jetpack at the back of the car so it reveals some indentations where you can connect the torso armature. That gets rid of the hoodie look, makes the torso more solid and allows the head to actually plug in, but gets rid of the butterfly joint too.
You can store starscreams landing gear in the cockpit
Oh my god you transform that so much more gracefully than I do (the new one I mean)
5:40 I don't mind below the knee swivels. I think of them as functioning like ankles.
Both are great, but I like the Cliffjumper reshell that was more of a modern car instead of a Volkswagen beetle. SG Goldbug kicks ass.
You just reminded me of that bumblebee three pack. I remember wanting it so badly as a kid. I saw it once in store and never again and it just hurt. Now I'm gonna hunt that three pack down some where some how
I think they were trying to make classics bee a skater boy, Netflix bee and C.C. goldbug pretty similar, I really like shattered glass goldbug a bit more. Looks bad ass. Keeps these awesome reviews coming and I loved your movie the best nemesis review as I recently picked him up. Damn it is an amazing figure
I really want the generations bumblebee dude
I remember the color changing sticker on that one. Thought it was so cool then.
goldbugs bumper...BUGS you? lol
Starscream and all G1 seekers landing gear goes in the cockpit in robot mode. At least that's what I've been doing since the 80s
Put G1 Starscreams landing gear in the cockpit! That's what I've done for the last fifteen years
I have Netmix Bumblebee and I personally prefer the buzzworthy space Bumblebee, he poses great, has a cool alt mode and with the exception of the head and the kibble he looks better too.
You put the landing gear in the cockpit 👌
I've got both figures (albeit the original versions of both).
I really like Classics Bee; I was thrilled that Bumblebee was finally being shown some respect. Mind you, at the time we only had the G1 minibot, the Pretender version and the Action Master version; and done re releases (plus perhaps some figurines and maybe non transforming figures).
But bot mode I think is great; the only thing I hate is those doors on the arms. Car mode I think is excellent as well, no complaints. I too would prefer having a gun instead of that jetski backpack.
Funny thing; this Bee got me back into collecting after I decided to give it up. Just be careful of the plastic of that windshield; after about 17 years, mine is cracking a bit.
As fir Netflix, he's a good little bot, and I actually think he's the right size for what Bumblebee should be. And let's be honest, those G1 minibots were super deformed. Bumblebee would have been bigger than that. But I wish they could have stripped out some of the gun, given him just one basic gun, and knocked maybe $5-$10 off figures like him. He's too big to be Legends scale, but not substantial enough to be a true Deluxe.
And having both Bee and Cliffjumper, I think Cliffjumper is the better figure. It feels that by giving Bee different parts and such, some tolerances are a bit too tight. I sometime struggle transforming him out if fear of breaking him.
But all in all, I prefer Classics, but Netflix is my display version due to scale.
Very nice, i gotta find my self a classics bee i lovee the design
picked mine up at a hobby shop for 30 last week lol
I have the Botcon Bugnite that Classics Bumblebee was redecoed into. I also have 3 different WFC Bees; Worlds Collide, Creatures Collide, and Shattered Glass 2021
I personally think that the Origins Bee blows both of these out of the water, but the Classics mold does look more fun than the ER Cliffjumper mold.
Renderform heads would be great for the Classics, and some of his redecos work for other Bugs who haven't had proper toys since G1.
1:47 I had never heard that before...
The best bee in the video is the EarthSpark Bee. Great figure.
I not going to lie, I do miss some of what the old CHUG line was starting initially - reimaging TF in a modern day era with alt modes that kind of look like today's vehicles.
Both loose to Buzzworthy Origins Bumblebee: More points of articulation, a much accurate depiction of what it’s try to be, a better design in general, better proportions and overall a better figure
I would love to see an animated blitzwing review.
Netflix bee transforms like the Prime legends Cliffjumper
On 12:30 I could tell
The other part looked dry while the other yellow bit looked moist like it had moisture or saturation
Or both of it lol
I think you may have classics bee mistransformed in robot mode, the bit that connects to the jetski in vehicle mode folds out so that the waist can tab in
I thought it was funny that he complains about Gold Bug paint chipping and then after he starts the transformation you can hear it hit what im assuming is the floor lol
i got that 3 pack for christmas as a kid
For me the best generation Bee is the FOC one.
WFC Bee has pinned wheels in some stock photos and pegged wheels in others.
I'll be honest, I do agree with those who hate the ER Cliffjumper mold for partsforming. I mean, they really put funds into making Cliffjumper's massive cannon seen only once in G1's first episode that can break into parts to make him look like he's skiing seen in only one scene in one episode but had no funds to not make the whole back partsform, which you lose that rear and now you can never complete the alt mode again.
They could've just put the funds they put into the cannon/skii thing into the back to not partsform and I highly doubt anyone would care if Cliffjumper had a generic gun mold. If they wanted the skiis and cannon, then let a 3rd party make an upgrade kit there.
My goldbug is paint chipped in the same place
I want a version of the ER Cliff mold but I have classics Cliff. A friend has Goldbug and likes him. They’re both good
as a teen I kept car doors on my arms
I gave up on the Classics Bumblebee a long time ago because his bottom windshield in robot mode is prone to chipping, especially when you lift the legs up. I’ll take the KBB hornet and call you in the morning.
My only new-mold version is actually Bug Bite, but hey, close enough. Very nice. But my Bee is, and will always be, the OG Classics release. Just fun, solid, and full of personality.
I think I still prefer the old Bee, solid toys is what I priorize the most. I still would love to replace the silver seats of mine with Cliffjumper's black seats.
If i had to choose, i choose old classics. Mainly because i love it when TF cars have an interior, even if it's just seats.
I'm a big fabn of this Cliffjumper mode...but my favorite Bumblebee is the little hovercar.
You heard it here first folks
Being afraid of bees makes you age restricted
Both these figures were in earth wars with goldbug using his SG Version but bumblebee was using the rts repaint of the classic , in my opinion I choose both
I recently gotten Legacy Prowl and his leg articulation is crazy!!!! So check him out
1:30
Didn’t you know that the landing gear can fit inside the cockpit?
If you ever get a GDO powerdive or HFTD Highbrow, can you review it?
Starscream's landing gear fits.inside his.cockpit.
I just wish they would make a modern G1 Bee with a cartoony-looking car. They stick REALLY strict to the real-life proportions of the VW with the Netflix mold, which sure gives a realistic car, but it makes the proportions of the robot mode look really weird and wonky. I'm not a fan.
I'd rather they just prioritize a good robot mode and then give him a goofy-looking Beetle mode, it would be cute.
I was fortunate to find the only Netflix bumblebee at my store, so I picked it up and it’s pretty good, I definitely prefer it to the gold bug repaint (I don’t have goldbug, but just from seeing it I like the og paint more)
I love classics, old TF stuff was more high quality, that's why i have a whole shelf of old Tf stuff
I have the og netflix and it is very nice paint matchs perfectly on mine I even have his gun from the centurion drone weapon pack
I’d love to see that Reveal the Shield more movie deco on the new mold!
You could paint black stripes on the Netflix bee and it would look the part due to the orangey yellow. I kinda hate that shade of yellow on Bee and wish the Netflix one was the same color as the Origins Bee.
@@CJStanz good call! Better get my ruler out
I think that the reason people are upset with the partsforming is because instead of including the cannon they could have took that budget towards a hinge
Also loosing that backpack means the vehicle mode is pretty much ruined
Exactly. Plus, we have 3rd party companies who could easily fill that gap. And even then, I really doubt anyone would buy the upgrade kit except those absolutely die hard fans who want to spend money for things that only appeared in 1 scene each then forgotten
I got the OG Classics Bumblebee in college... Still one of my all time favorite figures. Captures the 86 vibe in a posable, fun to transform, original vibe.
Loved the cliffjumper classics version. It reminds me of the shattered glass comic!
You can just keep the landing gear for Starscream in the cockpit
Man, people mald so hard about partsforming that they lose all brain function and can’t figure out the transformation for a deluxe
Goldbug is the winner
These toys are both really good, but be careful with the windshield on the classics Bumblebee because I’ve had to of that same mold break
From the windshield and my classics Cliff Jumper is suffering the same problem but anyway, keep up the amazing work
Classics. No question. He looks the price, costed less, and would only need a slight retool into a Volkswagen to be the perfect G1 Bumblebee.
PAPOW! I personally like Goldbug more due to me liking the more streamlined design instead of the classics Bumblebee. Also, classics Bee bugged the hell out of me because he always felt too damn big, but that's pretty much the memo of classics and universe since all of the various figures had the weirdest scaling ever (Ironhide and Starscream). But, I only prefer the Goldbug reuse of the mold since I absolutely hated the Netflix Bumblebees' head.
Classics Bee was the toy that got me back into collecting as an adult. I will defend it to the ends of the Earth.
It's recognizable as Bumblebee, but they tried something new with his design (which is why I'm cautiously optimistic about the recently-revealed Volvo Optimus), and it just oozes personality! And it has INTERIOR SEATS! And they get used in bot mode! That alone is a huge plus in my book. It's that Alternators DNA I feel, and I am HERE for that.
I have Earthrise Cliffjumper and Shattered Glass Goldbug, and frankly, I think those are enough. I don't mind Netflix Bee and would like to get a VW mold that's not from the movie line, but I wasn't excited enough to go and pick out Cliff's remold. I paid my price of admission, and I'm not excited enough to get back in line to get on the ride again. It's........ fine.
Yess! you reviewed classics bumblebee!
Dude…Everyone who’s ever owned a G1 jet knows you keep the landing gear in the cockpit.
I just put the landing gears inside of starscream’s cockpit.
Best Bumblebee. I also have this combo of Bee and Bug
I quite like them both, though I still need to get my hands on the classics mould; so until then I’m perfectly fine with the Netflix mould
I honestly don’t think either are comparable. If you want an accurate G1 styled bumblebee without paying 100 dollars? Yeah, sure, get the Netflix one. If you want a stylized Bumblebee that somewhat resembles the original Bumblebee? Then get the classics one.
Aftermarket for Netflix Bee is around a hundred bucks now 💀
@@KapitalByoulikewaffles I’m talking about the retail price.
One shall stand, One shall fall
Why I'm a bee 🐝
I have both and I like both, for me I think it depends heavily on what you are looking for
I put g1 Starscream’s landing gear in his cockpit
Use a black light and you will see the different paint alot quicker..
My top three figures of Bee are The titans return, Cyberverse and ROTF.
