Transformers Earthspark Bumblebee! My kid asked for Twitch from Santa this year, meaning she has to stay hidden for a week, but I'm definitely gonna open up Danny Pudi.

Some other shots of the packaging, since it's a new line:

Typical current plastic-free presentation

Emancipated robot.

I love those dyed yellow twist ties.

Accessories tissue baggie now has a printed pattern on it. Weapon and Mandroid arm inside.

Dustbuster

huh, no waist articulation

guess they didn't want to mess up the sculpt

If Cyberverse Bumblebee had a union

Clever foot placement

car mode

Weapon storage

the painted yellow vs plastic yellow mismatch doesn't exist when seen by the naked eye, but under photography it's like They Live

and I have all these pieces left over

Was comparing with screenshots to see if it needed any obvious additional paint by me, but honestly there's not any big things that are missing. The tips of his toes? The 2mm continuation of black stripes on his stomach?

There, my touch-ups.

oh huh his biceps are white

that might be harder to paint than black

and his tummy stripes are offcenter? huh that's weird

stinger Blaster needs some black

skipped ahead to episode 7 -- tummy stripes are centered properly here

must be only episode 3 the texture map was scooched over
