Takara Tomy Website have just updated their Masterpiece section with the respective new Masterpiece MP-45 Bumblebee Ver 2.0.
We can find great 360 views of the new cartoon-accurate mold of the little yellow Autobot scout, revealing all details from every angle in both modes.
Additionally, the promotional video shown at Wonderfest has been uploaded too. While the video is region locked, it has been mirrored thanks to Planet Iacon Facebook Group. We can see how the mold has really captured the spirit of the G1 cartoon design, but some compromises had to be made in order to achieve it. More noticeable, the amount of kibble and panels that can be seen from the back and feet.
You can check out the video below, and all the mirrored images after the jump. Let us know your impressions on this new Masterpiece mold on the 2005 Boards!

While the recent reveal of the Masterpiece MP-18+ Masterpiece Bluestreak (Anime Colors) announced this figure as a Takara Tomy Mall exclusive, pre-orders have started popping up on our sponsors sites. Due to ship in Late July 2019, this version of Bluestreak features a more matte cartoon-accurate paint job, new faces, and effect parts that can plug into his gun or shoulder canons coming directly from the show.

We have some interesting news to share with you. Take this only as a RUMOR until we get an official confirmation. It seems a new Takara Tomy Masterpiece MP-45 Bumblebee 2.0 is on the horizon.
According to info shared in our boards by user TTemploy, we have a supposed Japanese text from Takara Tomy which announces a new cartoon-accurate Masterpiece G1 Bumblebee. Additionally, a few minutes later Taghobby website uploaded an entry about Takara Tomy releasing this new Masterpiece. This new Bumblebee mold would include:
The robot design is supposed to be inspired by the animation proportions and design, and even the alt mode would be similar to the not-so-realistic VW Beetle seen in the cartoon. We should expect pre-orders to start on 12th or 13th February to be released by the end of September. Price? Not-so-economic 13000 Yen or $118.33 approximately.
Take this with a grain of salt until we get an official source about it. In the mean time, we can speculate about this new version of Bumblebee. Does this mean a new line of cartoon-accurate Masterpiece toys? Does small Bee deserves such a big price? Ready to sell you MP-21 Bumblebee? Time will tell if this was true or not.
