@@IhavethetouchTell me about it. I was still too young for 2007, but I was very present for the ROTF era. It’s the whole reason why I started collecting. I was able to buy some figures I have always wanted off eBay quite recently.
@@spoopy29 Yeah but statistically speaking, it takes 20 exact years for an item to be vintage. That’s why toys from Transformers Armada and Energon today are known as vintage but not Cybertron just yet. Those toys have one more year to go.
I actually have what I believe to be a black and grey DOTM repaint of this mold of bumblebee, and he came with a little sam that could ride in him, but the windshield was so bendy during the transformation that it ended up snapped in half. One of these days bee is gonna get pulled over for driving around with half a windshield
Bro!!! I still have this exact version of Soundwave and this video helped me remember where I got it from. I did sell my Bumblebee. I remember even as a child that I wasn't as impressed with him but he was my only Bee so I got a lot of enjoyment from him.
THIS was my bumblebee figure, I was huge into bumblebee and was stoked when I got this as one of my first transformers toys... and he stinks lmao. Absolutely hate the transformation and the chest looks terrible. The best part is that I have absolutely zero memory of the soundwave figure, you could tell me I mistook it for garbage and threw it out with the box. I've been working on recollection my original figures and I got all of them, except for soundwave. He isn't expensive or rare I just don't care.
Empty space is necessary to keep the figures safe in case of any damages. Let's not ask Hasbro or any other toy companies to take away that space. Please.
I prefere the old packaging cuz at least u know it's sealed and accessories can't be stolen which seems to be an unfortunate and continuous thing. also, I like that version of soundwave
Damn that's nostalgic. I had that exact two pack and loved The Nest Patch! Always hated that, that BB's chest didn't pop out and orientate like the movie until I got Nitro BB during DOTM's run. Then the top of the hood broke and I got rid of it for a Barricade. The art of the deal. That soundwave mode does not have a good Robot mode but the Alt mode was very open to interpretation. Fun enough for an imaginative kid but as an adult I quickly traded him in as well.
I can vouch that the OG version of the cannon bumblebee mold is way nicer looking, his head is larger and very screen accurate and the yellow is a deeper shade
Soundwaves Angel mode with his flaming chest is hilarious. These are two figures I avoided like the plague during original retail. Used to have the original Concept Bee, but only kept the Battle Blades release though it's not the greatest either. DOTM Bee though is where I dropped off and getting him on clearance still one of the better attempts at movie Bee. Backpack is hinged mess but the look in both modes is spot on, and the plastic still feels great.
7:17 huh.... never realised how much that shared with the 07 bee till just then ( never had the rotf bee)like i thought it looked simmilar in robot but the moment i saw the legs transform it clicked
If people thought I hated t30 Nightbeat….. I haven’t told my cannon bee stories. I thought I was crazy for hating it until I met more people in the community at cons. Not to mention it bastardizes one of my favorite molds ever.
Honestly, despite its flaws I really like the Rotf Soundwave mold. I have the black version of it from Japan and love that thing. He looks so cool in robot mode. I love posing him around. Despite his size he definitely has a presence
The bumblebee has so much in common with the 07 figure. The legs are the same and I noticed a few other components that were similar to the 07. And then the car mode looks basically identical
Oh God I saw the shoulder canons and I knew exactly what Bumblebee toy that was. I have one version of that figure from a CVS two pack with a legion Grinder. The Grinder was more fun then the Bumblebee. I also have the mainline ROTF Soundwave figure. I got him in box and now he sits on my Soundwave shrine.
I actually bought this set as well, Bumblebee for an alt mode display of cars and trucks that I *think* are to scale with one another, and Soundwave actually goes on my studio series shelf just bc I like a slightly bigger Soundwave
This thing is still a million times better then ss rotf soundwave, also got dayum maybe its because soundwave is a toy i like but he was nitpicky af in this one.
Must have been lucky as my RotF Soundeave never had any issues, though Im surprised theyve never touched on it again by using it as a basis for an Alpha Trion figure
I remember wanted to get this set just for the Soundwave figure I wasn’t able to do it back in 2019, then I got the regular release of Soundwave not long later, but then a year later I replaced that figure with the Studio Series version.
OMG I HAD THIS EXACT SET AS A KID! i used to love those bumblebee and soundwave figures to death lol unfortunately i had to throw out the bumblebee cause he broke, although i gave soundwave to my brother so he's still good
4:04 can we all agree that this design should’ve been redone in studio series instead of what we got, like the the one we got is ok, buts is just so bland, but this design, this is the design we should’ve got
My first transformer toy was voyager 2009 Optimus... And then I've got these guys... Oh, how much water has flowed under the bridge... I still prefer this Soundwave, than ss version
Honestly I think Cannon Bumblebee is better than Battle Blades Bee. Battle Blades Bee just looks to thinned out, I'd rather take a bot being a little stocky as opposed to too skinny. If Cannon Bee's chest clipped properly, and separated like it does in the movie, I wouldn't really have any problems with it.
I had this and could never transform the Soundwave. Now they’re both trashed because my little brother destroys everything. Edit: Now seeing how it’s supposed to work, I feel really stupid. It was so simple but I never figured out the instructions for some reason.
Honestly have the regular version of this soundwave, sold the studio series rotf one after getting it, just such a better satellite mode compared to the studio series in my opinion
Hasbro made a whole episode to promote this two pack.
Cybermissions
@@Deathbot884yes! I remember there was one for bludgeon and ironhide too
Holy fuck, I tried to remember the name of this episodes for almost a year now. I knew I wasn’t going crazy!
In 2027 and 2029, both the 2007 and ROTF toys will be considered vintage.
ROTF toylines were awesome time to be a collector
@@IhavethetouchTell me about it. I was still too young for 2007, but I was very present for the ROTF era. It’s the whole reason why I started collecting. I was able to buy some figures I have always wanted off eBay quite recently.
Shut up bruh 😢
They already are considered vintage
@@spoopy29 Yeah but statistically speaking, it takes 20 exact years for an item to be vintage. That’s why toys from Transformers Armada and Energon today are known as vintage but not Cybertron just yet. Those toys have one more year to go.
4:04 he hittin the polnareff pose
That was my first thought too 😂 always got the Jojo’s reference part of my brain on full power
Same, peak anime
I actually have what I believe to be a black and grey DOTM repaint of this mold of bumblebee, and he came with a little sam that could ride in him, but the windshield was so bendy during the transformation that it ended up snapped in half. One of these days bee is gonna get pulled over for driving around with half a windshield
Yes you are correct part of the human alliance toyline
I swear that bumblebee is the most knocked off mold i ever seen. I seen mold in oversized version and replaced with generic blaster sound effect.
Now to be fair,
I would’ve given the show straight A’s if every episode had Soundwave blaring the Top Gear theme as a weapon.
2:23 TONIGHT, Bee its alone on the NEST HQ, James says Hello, and I drive Dino on the moon
And then I have tea with optimus and megatron and fix their marriage
The audacity ppl have to hate on the bayverse SS Soundwave when this thing exist:
Right lol,
SS Soundwave is a figure I really want in my collection, a lot of people hate it and I honestly don't get why.
nah ss rotf soundwave looks GROSS. this one is way cooler proportionally
Yeah lol. SS rotf Soundwave sucks . Idc how well he poses. He looks like nothing in either mode
@MTC-hy6ig I NEED to try whatever you are smoking 😂...
@Vengeance041 I have him but the satellite mode is pretty bad yet that's supposed to be the better version not the worst
I believe some of that weird back kibble may be meant to replicate the "winglets" on his CG model.
4:52 The Last Knight Bumblebee gimmick 🤯💥
Always had a soft spot for Soundwave. My first ROTF figure
Bro!!! I still have this exact version of Soundwave and this video helped me remember where I got it from. I did sell my Bumblebee. I remember even as a child that I wasn't as impressed with him but he was my only Bee so I got a lot of enjoyment from him.

I still have that soundwave, I got him at Savers for like $2 10 years ago.
Empty space is necessary to keep the figures safe in case of any damages. Let's not ask Hasbro or any other toy companies to take away that space. Please.
Soundwave is like T30 Rhinox, he has genuine jank in his legs but he gets a pass because he looks really cool lol
I prefere the old packaging cuz at least u know it's sealed and accessories can't be stolen which seems to be an unfortunate and continuous thing. also, I like that version of soundwave
With the new packaging standards for the Studio Series line, your worries have been alleviated.
Damn that's nostalgic. I had that exact two pack and loved The Nest Patch! Always hated that, that BB's chest didn't pop out and orientate like the movie until I got Nitro BB during DOTM's run.

I actually have a fair bit of nostalgia for Cyber Missions, I find it very charming
I can vouch that the OG version of the cannon bumblebee mold is way nicer looking, his head is larger and very screen accurate and the yellow is a deeper shade
Memories of this set from my youth just flooded back...One of the car panels snapped on the Bee after very little play and I was nooootttt happy.
I LOVED my RotF Soundwave growing up! I had the original, not this one. But still, I'd make him and my 2007 Bumblebee fight all of the time.
Soundwaves Angel mode with his flaming chest is hilarious. These are two figures I avoided like the plague during original retail. Used to have the original Concept Bee, but only kept the Battle Blades release though it's not the greatest either. DOTM Bee though is where I dropped off and getting him on clearance still one of the better attempts at movie Bee. Backpack is hinged mess but the look in both modes is spot on, and the plastic still feels great.
Oh god, the childhood frustration that Bumblebee brings me
Used to have this 2 pack when I was a kid, figs were not the best but they were some of my favorite ROTF toys back in the day.
7:17 huh.... never realised how much that shared with the 07 bee till just then ( never had the rotf bee)like i thought it looked simmilar in robot but the moment i saw the legs transform it clicked

awe!!! i remember having that soundwave when i was a kid
That looks sick
Ok but I fr like that design for soundwave
Good. You got camber right at about 8:18
4:08 lil bro hit the Polnareff pose 😮
Oh God I saw the shoulder canons and I knew exactly what Bumblebee toy that was. I have one version of that figure from a CVS two pack with a legion Grinder. The Grinder was more fun then the Bumblebee. I also have the mainline ROTF Soundwave figure. I got him in box and now he sits on my Soundwave shrine.
I was actually just looking for that Soundwave. But then i remembered how awkward he is to do anything with
My ROTF Soundwave. That is a you issue man.
When I was a kid I used to fan mode my Soundwave into a dragon thing
I don't have him anymore but that was fun
I remember buying this when I was younger
Agree on bee. Do really like the legs and the weird hips but the unmasked normal variant look cool too and carmode ofc is badass
I actually bought this set as well, Bumblebee for an alt mode display of cars and trucks that I *think* are to scale with one another, and Soundwave actually goes on my studio series shelf just bc I like a slightly bigger Soundwave
I love watching your videos when I eat my dinner lol
Is he doing the Polnareff pose in 4:03 ?
This thing is still a million times better then ss rotf soundwave, also got dayum maybe its because soundwave is a toy i like but he was nitpicky af in this one.
Got this pack back when I was a kid I loved it lol
Okay but this and the Bumblebee vs Barricade pack was my childhood
Awesome review, I remember having this set as a kid. Glad to see someone revisit this…… mediocre? 2 pack
Must have been lucky as my RotF Soundeave never had any issues, though Im surprised theyve never touched on it again by using it as a basis for an Alpha Trion figure
I hated that bumblebee mould both of the times I’ve had him he’d snap in half while i was transforming him
I remember wanted to get this set just for the Soundwave figure I wasn’t able to do it back in 2019, then I got the regular release of Soundwave not long later, but then a year later I replaced that figure with the Studio Series version.
I just sold my soundwave funnily enough
Now that you said it I can swe it dose look wide and it looks like one of my fat Lego builds
OMG I HAD THIS EXACT SET AS A KID! i used to love those bumblebee and soundwave figures to death lol
unfortunately i had to throw out the bumblebee cause he broke, although i gave soundwave to my brother so he's still good
i have the vanilla version of soundwave and his hips don't do THAT on mine so i really like him!
Oh man I used to have these. Sold them a very long time ago unfortunately
4:04 can we all agree that this design should’ve been redone in studio series instead of what we got, like the the one we got is ok, buts is just so bland, but this design, this is the design we should’ve got
A figure I've not seen here is the 2007 and Rotf Ironhide. Its a fun figure imo
Under 1 hour or 1 hour gang
👇
I used to own this and I still have the soundwave from it
My first transformer toy was voyager 2009 Optimus... And then I've got these guys... Oh, how much water has flowed under the bridge...
I still prefer this Soundwave, than ss version
0:46 how about the preview bee like the roft retool of 07 bee
Honestly I think Cannon Bumblebee is better than Battle Blades Bee. Battle Blades Bee just looks to thinned out, I'd rather take a bot being a little stocky as opposed to too skinny. If Cannon Bee's chest clipped properly, and separated like it does in the movie, I wouldn't really have any problems with it.
I REMEMBER I HAD THIS!!!
Oh hey I have these two
I had this and could never transform the Soundwave. Now they’re both trashed because my little brother destroys everything.
Edit: Now seeing how it’s supposed to work, I feel really stupid. It was so simple but I never figured out the instructions for some reason.
Bayformer designs aged like milk. Not even today's Hasbro could toy them any better.
Except Sideswipe
Now I know Rotf Soundwave is mid at best but I have a big soft spot for it being my first ever Soundwave. A guilty pleasure if you will.
Honestly have the regular version of this soundwave, sold the studio series rotf one after getting it, just such a better satellite mode compared to the studio series in my opinion
Don't forget the mail away patch for getting this 2 pack... I'm sure they're out of stock now
Yo is that Carbuckle?
Just woke up to a video!!?!?!?!!???
Ima they are so wonky. And soundwave....why so much red? Also gorilla two pack is what ima call these guys
I thought he was saying CANON bee, not cannon bee.
What the hell does N.E.S.T. Mean?
It's the human faction that assisted the autobots
@@raptorprimal1077 that doesn’t tell me what it means
I’ve been able to get these guys for ages but still HAVENT brought them
I have and the 3 pack of rampage among the ruins
Could you do a review on dirt boss or power lift? Please
What's your local shop that you find these guys at?
How in the world you buy an old 2009 two pack how ??
If u didn't like it the first umpteen times u had it then why buy it again? I really don't understand that.
I definitely owned that Soundwave, but NEVER that Bee. Did they sell him separately at any point?
They did
I broke my Cannon Bee because of its stupid transformation
how much
Yeah 20min gang
Hi
Oh shit I had this set as a kid! It sucked!
Im here early toy guy
7:57 Heh, just realized Bumblebee can transform into TF:One Bee’s first transformation attempt, except he has back wheels
