ER Cliffjumper: *Gets punched at least twice in this video* Ah, order is restored

So I actually saw someone on Reddit swap the Netflix Bee head to this body and it totally works as an updated G1 stand-in. I want this fig for that reason alone, and they better come out with a good Wasp as well from this mold

That Bee works remarkably well for a pint-sized deluxe. PS It is an honor to be the first patron selected, and this high will last all day.

The funniest thing about getting this figure is that I was to short to get him off the shelf, had to get an employee

I told you he was good The stripe in vehicle mode wasn't lined up perfectly

Animated prime next?

2:18 congratulations, now you have given me the mental image of Bumblebee doing that to Optimus Prime

As a TFA fan, I need this lil' lad. He looks just right; stylization is balanced as to not stray away from it's artstyle source material whilst being faithful.

Cool little detail I noticed on the poseability of this figure; if you unravel the chest from the torso you can engage the transformation joint like an ab-crunch!

I just want an animated leader/commander lugnut (With preserved aesthetics). Then I can die happy

you know, I'm happy you like this guy, because I was scared you wouldn't lol. Animated was the one show that I always knew existed growing up, but didn't know what it was, I just knew I liked the bumblebee design, so this figures hits all of the nostalgia points for me. I finally have my childhood bumblebee

Seeing Animated get good figures again brings joy to my soul. Animated is one of the best transformers shows imo, and i just hope we get more animated stuff down the line. Whether that be a revival of the show, a comic version of the cancelled season 4, or just more figures, i just need more of this.

I really like my copy of the figure, despite the fact that it suffers from a QC issue where he has two left thighs, with the right one being assembled backwards. I did manage to pop it off the mushroom peg and Dremel-cut the part intended to be in the front to allow the leg to swing backwards properly; it is at least one of the errors that doesn't affect transformation.

It's ashame that Hasbro made it so he holds his stinger weapons when separated crooked. Only to be position straight when combined. I like the quick duel stinger action Bumblebee displayed on the Animated show. That aside, this Legacy United Bumblebee rocks. -Really hope that the leak listings for next year is true, about a Animated Wasp from this mold.

The Animated toys got better as it went along. The Prowl is a little finicky to transform, the Bee is very good, and the Optimus is so fun to mess with and he feels bigger than he should be.

I've personally always wanted to see the animated designs made with a less cartoony style that fits with the rest of my chug collection ever since seeing those cool fanarts, so these figures are a dream come true. The animated designs do really well to reflect these takes on the characters and mesh previous designs while also being something new. I hope they do all the animated cast, Ratchet, Megatron, Blitzwing, Jazz, Sentinel, I need them all.

Bumblebee is a core class with voyager engineering CliffjumpER is a core class with battlemaster engineering

Jesus this is beautiful, The most prefect bee I've ever scene aside from most of the studio series bees

Didn’t even notice he has Triggerhappy Shoulders that’s how good this figure is. I really like this guy. The transformation is super enjoyable and it’s the main reason I like this figure.

I do have this theory that Bumblebee was ment to be the first Animated Figure we got or atleast the first conceptualized because of the clear plastic being 'Energon Weapons', only for them to hold him back because either they were struggling to make him or remade him but kept the energon clear plastic Very farfetched, I know, but that's the vibe I get tbh.

By Rung, that is a shiny face, it's almost hypnotic on the turntable segments.

you can also get a faux ab crunch by untabbing the chest, and it results in one of the best ab crunches i've ever seen btw

Honestly you know what with a G1 head this would pretty much just be a modern update of classics bee, which is kinda what I want to do lmao

The only complaint I can muster with this guy is “the rockets are clear, and not blast effect compatible”. That’s it this guy is perfect and it finally feels like we’ve gotten good justification for the tiny deluxe thing that started in earthrise.

20s gang. Great video in advance Edit. Both the video and figure didn't disappoint. And I too want Purple Potato, but the alternative version

Saw someone 3D print something so the stingers actually connect in a way that isn't stupid. Might have to get that for mine soon

This bumblebee for his poses like a champion. So glad I got him

As I have just got into collecting I appreciate your videos, very straight forward and entertaining, the speed to your videos feels like second nature because I always think that fast, I picked up the universe deluxe hound after watching your review

Me: perspective end KZfaq search bar: perspective and

The only thing new i have been able to find in the new year, and somehow it was from gamestop of all places that had it

Giving credit where it's due, CliffjumpER is pretty durable.

I really like Cliffjumper, but the fact you smash him everytime he shows up on camera is comedy gold for some reason. Animated holds a special place in my heart, but this figure looks good enough.

I always thought he would have sucked but when I got him I was like wow this is actually good

Great review PerspectiveEnd!! I really enjoy how small Bumblebee is, since as you said it is size accurate to his appearance in Transformers Animated. lol Fingers crossed that we get Animated Ratchet and Bulkhead in the Legacy line. Keep on being amazing.

I put a decepticon logo on my copy. Think he had one just one time in the comics and it surprisingly goes well with that smirk lol.

Alternative title: earthrise cliffjumper review part 2, also animated bee

BB Animated looks much better getting a much awesome design. Can you imagine if BB ANIMATED Teams up with G1 BB ----- The cons are in big trouble against the multiverse little guy. 😅

It's crazy how his arms beong transformed properly makes him look SO much better

I swear the second this dude release he immediately showed up at target

I also noticed that they are faithful to his transformation in the show

This figure should really be the standard size for all mini bots

I just think that this guy is cool, happy to finally get an Animated version of the guy.

6:24 This gives me bumper car vibes for some reason...

i really hope they come out with an animated earth megatron. it definitly needs an update figure.

I’ve had this guy since December and I really like him. He’s really fun and looks great imo with Prowl, Prime, and Bulkhead (and 86 Ratchet who I’ve put in until we get an animated version). Also I kinda love how tiny he is, he’s adorable.

I hadn't planned on getting this guy but this has changed my mind. I looooove the animated style. I have a tattoo of optimus going from truck to bot in four stage all the way up my spine hahah

Man, the fucking WAR this figure caused when he was first leaked was INSANE. I was of the camp that was genuinely excited for it because he just looked like a major improvement to the ER mold in every way. Again, I must say, I CANNOT wait to get my hands on Wasp! He cannot come soon enough!

I've been saving my money for Swoop so I can preorder him the second he drops, but when I saw Bee and Prime in target I just had to grab them to go with my Prowl, and I gotta say, I don't regret it. They're fun and cute, and I still have money left over

Popping back in to note, it appears there's a 3mm port on the end of the combined stingers, although it needs a bit of fiddling/wiggling apart a bit to actually hold

I'm glad to know that the cocky and speedy guy from animated rolls really well here, I'm getting one of these for sure. Also helps that Animated recently became my favorite Transformers show, but not my all time favorite show, that goes to Avatar: The Last Airbender. (the original)

This is one of a bunch Legacy United figures that I actually and I'm glad that you actually liked the figure

Always here for the cliff, jumper slader

2:06 speaking of his abs, if you don’t finish transforming it, the waist transformation joint can function as a deep ab crunch.

In other words, a preaty dicent fig. As for me, probadly my only conplaint would been the plain looking feet, but besides that, a dicent job. As for the question of the video ... From all of Animated desighns, whitch one would you like to see been done in Legacy and why ?

the weirdest thing is that bumblebee`s window`s were tanned

Just got one today, and I swear this thing mass shifts, the shins being 40% hidden in vehicles mode makes it look like they actually shrunk in on themselves holy crap

Gap or not, I f****** hate that shoulder configuration.

1:17 and 2:24 “Stop! He’s already dead!”

How did I miss your purple potato review? Time to go watch it.

ah yes. Ani-Bee (Animated + Bumblebee). The tiny bug we all just so happen to tolerate

If they were to bring any animated villains to the Legacy line, who would you want to see? I'd be thrilled with Lugnut or Swindle, personally.

Now we need animated Wasp

Since we're gonna get an 86 bumblebee. I think they'll remold and repaint this figure into a g1 bumblebee. I think it'll work.

Finally, more cliff jumper pain

TFA bee is one of those figures I desperately want

I didn’t grow up with animated but it looks kinda good

2:10 …I can totally see TFA Bumblebee trying to do that, he’s such an idiot it’s so in character. (Loved the review!)

Oh, now I'm definitely getting the wasp redeco (with, hopefully, the head with the mouthguard). And, really, let's not kid ourself about Prime Legacy stuff. It is prime in name and headsculpts only (except Skyquake). This is still chug-ified, but the designs directly adapt the animated figures.

6:22 is that little light meant to be a police siren? Like one of the ones undercover cars used to have back in the day. Cops just opened the window, slapped it in the roof and the siren goes off. How does it stay on the roof? Magnets. Probably. I legitimately don’t know. Always assumed it was magnets. I mean, how else could it be done? Always, if that light is a cop light, does Animated mark the first time Bumblebee is officially a cop car? I seem to vaguely recall him taking his alt mode from the chief of police’s car. Or commissioner, or whatever cop position the character had.

This guy is so nice! Once I got it, I was so happy! I wish we could get rid of the clear plastic.

I’m happy they’re finally calming down with the amount of Bumblebees they release I got back into collecting during the Last Knight, Power of the Primes era, and he was absolutely everywhere, which is what caused me to hate him So it’s good that he’s no longer dominating the shelves anymore

Your MP skyfire review is one of my favorite videos of yours. You said you had the MP trailmixbreaker. Will you ever review it? unless you haven’t already

From what I've heard, Apparently this is going to be repainted/retooled into animated wasp

ima bet that animated cliffjumper will be a repaint of this

Interesting that the feet have built-in gap fillers.

I just got him, and if you untab the chest, you can get an ab crunch.

I on the other hand think i looks bad, but the silver lining is, legacy has saved me so much money, in fact, all wfc has, exvept for the beast wars figures, and a few of random designs here and there

i'm heading to a local retailer soon, and i'm caught in a decision, and i wouldn't mind some advice option 1, SS concept Megatron, animated bee and Magneous option 2, the same thing but its Tiger hawk instead option 3, Tiger hawk and Megs which one is the best option?

Honestly Prime Universe Knockout and Arcee are fine, the only issue with Bulkhead is that his vehicle mode isn't the vehicle he had in prime (military equipment truck VS offroad civilian truck) in fact it more closely matches the animated vehicle mode so I feel like it is a mislabel and not actually a bad figure.

I absolutely loved legacy bee, reason I say loved is because ive now lost the tiny boy 😔

You know, earthrise cliffjumper, came out during the pandemic, right?

2:03 when you say leotard, which one, the long sleeve legless ones the gymnasts wear or the full body superhero suits?

I like him with all my other Bees on the shelf even though I never watched Animated, would buy again if they nixed the clear plastic.

Great review. Like I said before. Solid plastic with painted Windows is always better.

I love this Bumblebee, however I'm very concerned for that pure clear plastic chest/body because that is very concerning. Let hope that lasts for a long time.

Is the ko transmetal optimus primal’s weapons compatible with the original vintage

4:57 i thought he had a ab crunch, huh

Im still concerned about the size yes the whole point of his character is that he's short and get made fun of but I missed the old days where the figures were bigger. I used to have the electronic lights and sounds animated bee where you can have his hands (which are stingers) combine and have the buzzing sfx, also he has heelies which was really cool to have him roll around in robot mode

2:14 As a wise man once said: “femboy bumblebee making me act unwise”

I like Animated’s style! The simple art and low framerate are a tried and true tradeoff for VERY dynamic action and way more forced perspective and motion tricks than any other TF show I can think of

for a possible beast wars week in the future, did you think about ranking all the episodes from worst to best ?

Initially I wasn’t really interested in this toy despite Bumblebee being my all time favorite and animated being my favorite show of the Transformers franchise! (I didn’t really mind the low frame rate (nowadays it’s kind of my favorite aspect, as a lot of stylized animated media uses a lower frame rate.) and the art style is one of my favorites. That being said, like this toy, there needs to be a balance between stylization and functionality. And while the visuals were one of my personal favorite things in TFA in my opinion, I can completely understand why it might turn some people off. It’s not for everyone and that’s ok!) Anyway, as for this Bumblebee, I might actually consider getting one! It’s pretty cheap last time I looked it up, and I’m always looking for more Bumblebees to add to my collection! So I’ll probably check it out! The stylization here, as you said, is done pretty well! A good blend of TFA and the more angular boxy design of G1, but neither overshadowing the other! It genuinely looks pretty dang fun!

I like this figure, but every time I look at it a voice in the back of my brain tells me the animated reactivate figure was better (aside from the arms, since that figure had doors for arms)

Man I love Derek Wyatt's art animation style from all the cartoons he did. I understand why you didn't like it. Probably cuz they look more human/superhero than robot.

So I wanna get 3 or 4 Bumblebees. First is the Cybertronian mode of Animated Bumblebee, then the Animated version's Earth mode, he matures into the Devastation version, he gets a flight upgrade and becomes G1 Space Bumblebee. I want Legacy Prime Cliffjumper. And Headmaster Cancer. Shame the other two are pointless repaints.

I actually just received this the other day and I have zero complaints, could definitely look more like the animated design but I think this is the best animated bumblebee they've ever put out (the old deluxe was good but very clunky)

I’m surprised you very merciful when reviewing this guy

I honestly think you hit it on the head at the beginning with the comparison to prime fans but slightly missed it by the end because the Attempts at updating animated characters has failed miserably in my book... But it is making me do some back collecting 😂

I really want to get this figure, it’s a good design for bumblebee, and hey maybe it won’t break every time I Transform it (SS 49!!!!!)

Legacy 86 swoop was revealed and it is a leader class
