    ToyWorld TW-03 BII (G1 Bumblebee)

    The second third party figure that I got in the bundle with iGear Hench, Toyworld BII here is more or less a pre-official Masterpiece Bumblebee. I’ve never actually heard of Toyworld before as a third party company, but they’ve earned my success with this little guy.
