I wonder how many people will get that reference.
Masterpiece Bumblebee arrived today at my residence. Yay. Previously I had spent a good half hour typing up and editing this post, then the programme crashed and now I have to start again as I hadn’t saved. Gawdamit.
I think in the design process, Bumblebee presents a lot of challenges. The first is his original vehicle mode, being the Choro-Q deformed beetle. The next, would be making his robot mode scaled for the other MPs, but then the vehicle mode won’t scale well.
What to do? As a bonus, Bumblebee also comes with Spike in an Exo Suit! YAY! Finally after all these years we have and Exo Suit. I don’t know why it took so long…. After all M.A.S.K managed to give us Scott and T-Bob right from the get-go.
So, how is the end result? Read on to find out!

But wait! There’s more!
Transformers, Transformers Animated, Everybody Loves Raymond. Strange combination, but Animated Swindle was voiced by Fred Willard, who has many roles, one of which was as Raymond Barone’s Father-in-law. An odd choice I first thought when watching TFA, but as a comedian it suited Swindle very nicely. Well, Swindle isn’t a comedian as such, but he is a very smooth fellow and shouldn’t be trusted.
There’s a lot to like about Swindle’s design and the figure came out looking very nice and rather close to his on-screen self. Let’s take a look!

American Saturn Software package review. Albert Odyssey
I’d been eyeing off this game on and off for a while, umming and arr-ing about actually getting it or not. I finally dropped the cash and ended up with my very first American Sega Saturn game. Odd really since I have had the facilities to play them for a while but have just never bought any. So now I own the highly regarded Albert Odyssey.
While I am excited about Albert Odyssey, I am not so excited at the style of packaging the American games come in. I thought the PAL (Australian/European) cases were annoying, but these US ones appear to be worse.
