    I love these. Although I’d like to see them make a dynamic mic. I’m guessing they could call it the yellow jacket and it could be a killer.

      That's something, maybe an active dynamic like the Aston Stealth and it could come with XLR and USB as well. A Q2U Killer, end addressed like the Q9U just bee-ish. It could be a bit like a shotgun so it could be called the Stinger 😉

    I *love* the look of the V1 King Bee and Worker Bee. Just ordered my Worker Bee while the V1 is still available.

    I love the look because the colours are the same as my football team, the Richmond Tigers. I bought one just in time for the start of the footy season.

    I think they look amazing and it's a crime against the bees to spray paint them, but I'm glad you're doing what makes you happy. Thanks for the review!

      Turns out you don’t actually have to paint it. There is a white part under the yellow bands that actually peels off and it’s completely black underneath. Then you can switch back and forth between having the yellow bands or all black. Pretty awesome!

    I love the king and worker mics. I purchased 4 extra ones. 2 king and 2 worker. I am taking a gamble just keep them new in my mic locker. Hope the go up in price and maybee make a small profit. Ps the UK packaging does not have the plastic surround box with the honeycomb plastic. Neet said it was to do with eu Packing rules. My boxes are all just cardboard with a different design. Great channel. Keep up the good work. Love the cat man.

    Bark's review sold me on the KB back in the before-times. No regrets.

    Both mics actually sound a lot better when you use a different pop filter and don't use the provided honeycomb pop filter.

    I love things that are different, especially my King Bee. Was so lucky to get mine from Amazon for the sweet price of £91. If you buy a mic because of how it looks you're definitely doing it wrong.
    Friend of mine also has the Worker Bee and loves it.

    They don’t sell the king bee anywhere man I tried to find it and nobody has it.
    I’m all about looks myself and I honestly don’t think this mic looks bad, I think it’s unique and I’m all about unique. My microphone gotta look good and sound good. I’m mad picky

    These are £100+ IF you can find one.
    Puts it up against some serious competition.

      Honestly… 100 EUR - 120 EUR, I think it is still absolutely worth it. Based on the build quality, accessories and sound, it is still a very good deal.
