That looks great! Which movie look are you going for? Based on the mask, I'm going to guess it's the Part II version? I don't see a lot of the damage on it that he accumulated by the end of IV (and in V he got a new one). Also, I've pretty much blocked VI-IX from my mind, so I have no memory of what it looked like in any of those.

Yeah, I was also surprised about the lack of pegwarming for that wave - at least at first. Then I started hearing reports that the Goldfire version of the mold had better QC than the original Bumblebee version. Not to mention it technically wasn't a Bumblebee toy. Granted, that's splitting a really fine hair but I guess that's all collectors need sometimes to justify a purchase.

For me, I've always liked Bee's Goldbug body/persona (even going back to the G1 Throttlebot). Besides, I'm all-in on Generations so it didn't matter, anyway.

I saw it get stocked two or three times before the Scoop wave showed up (which itself has been restocked no less than 5 times now).
