Okay. This is the company that made the female Bumblebee and Lapidarius last year. What's that you say? They made a Cliffjumper and who the hell is Lapidarius? First of all; no, they didn't make a Cliffjumper. They made a red Bumblebee just like Kotobukiya did. If you make a Bumblebee figure in red but don't change the helmet design to match Cliffjumper, you made Red Bumblebee and not Cliffjumper. Especially if you didn't change the vehicle mode like Collection Space. So Lapidarius is what I've come to call Red Bumblebee. Where did I come up with this name you ask? The red-tailed bumblebee, also known as Bombus Lapidarius. Shorten that name up a bit as Bombus is the genus name for bumblebees in general and bam, Lapidarius. If you're asking, and you probably aren't, yellow Cliffjumper is Mesascent. No, Hubcap is NOT yellow Cliffjumper. What? Bumper REALLY isn't yellow Cliffjumper. What the hell? Lol. I clicked post without actually saying what I wanted about the figure. Looks like Bingo Toys Windgirl but if they actually bothered to make the figure not suck and gave her an actual vehicle mode. Out of all the Windblade figures I have that can transform, the Bingo Toys one is the worst. It's literally half a jet with half of a female robot doing a yoga pose. There is not a single thing that even tried to make the legs look like anything other than just bent legs. Nothing to fill the gap in the middle. Nothing to add tailfins and stabilizers in any meaningful way, nothing to blend the front and back of the vehicle mode, nothing to keep the legs in place. Nothing. Okay well you can technically put some of the little swords back there to act as tailfins but they look like tiny swords hanging off the back of what's supposed to be a jet. So again, not in any meaningful way. The arms barely do anything either. They have you fold the arms in such a way that allows you to move the fists into some cavities for them but that's it. SSBB Concept Art Megatron has a more meaningful jet mode and that's saying something as that figure fucking sucks as anything other than a robot.
