Transformers Classic Bumblebee (Robots In Disguise)

I know this fella kinda old but since i like the mold very much, i think i need to review him briefly.

As you know, this mold is from Transformers Classic Deluxe Class, Robots In Disguise which is produced in 2006 by Hasbro. A same mold also produced by TakaraTomy as Henkei Classic Bumblebee with extra chromes on the mold. What i like most about this fella is, the head sculp.

The head is perfect, as you can see it, it resemble G1 Bumblebee from the G1 cartoon in 1984. The transformation is simple and easy. No need to refer to the manual as Bumblebee articulation is simple but nice for a smaller size like him. It's a good buy though because i prefer Hasbro version than TakaraTomy Henkei version. Less chrome and no headeache for chromes wear.

In my humble opinion, henkei classic are for MISB keeping, not for playing over and over again.

Close up at the head sculpt. Isn't that a nice head mold?

Another close look at the head sculp, a bit below the chest.

I would like to give him 8 out 10 vote because of excellent the head sculpt. What i don't like about this mold is, his leg, kinda bulky and with limited pose.
It's still a good buy anyway and certainly a good mold for Bumblebee because it resemble G1 cartoon of Bumblebee.
