The real deal at a good price
My 4 year-old son wanted a Bumblebee Transformer and I didn't want to pay scalper's prices of over $55 for the other Bumblebee I've seen out there so this one was it. And I tell you it's just what it should be and what I expected.
So here's what I expected:
It's a smaller toy with a fairly complex transformation from car to robot and back again - as advertised right on the package (three out of four stars in "transformation complexity"). To be honest I couldn't do it the first time and had to wait for the husband to come to the rescue (I skipped a step - shame on me). After I saw it transform I got it too. My four year-old not so much yet - we still have to finish it for him but I wasn't really expecting him to be able to do it in the first place.
It's not durable enough to bash against the wall but it's more durable than I thought it would be with smaller moving plastic parts that can be very flexible. It held up under me trying to transform it with my "when in doubt force it" mentality. It's withstood my son's play for over a week now and is never far from him. He loves it. Especially the battle canons which he flips up in car mode and calls them the car's "eyes".
So thankfully this toy was exactly what I was expecting and absolutely didn't let my son down which was my main criteria!
