    maybe if you get enough doubles, you could use them as chess pieces...

    I saw the big bee in Secret Base and he didn't really do much for me either :?

    i hated them at first too. i still haven't bought any yet but maybe i'll trade for some or something. they are painted pretty sloppy and look like kidrobot released them quality wise but a few of them would be cool.

    It seems like the card said you have to send 10 cards to the address below to redeem a giant skull bee. It also said it's made from vinyl. No photocopy or pictures of the card is accepted. Thats what I made out from the pic. I hope I'm right.

    So if you need 10 cards to get that guy, that would definitely take more than 10 cases (since some have ultra-shitty ratios, apparently). Wow. I'm not a fan of Skull Bees in the first place, but the colors aren't very interesting. The scale, on the other hand, is cool as hell.

    Nope. These are the lamest of the lame. They look super crappy. These are like Japanese Labbits.

    do you send the cards in to claim the giant bee, or is it to get the chance to win one?

    Wow.

    So, first it was assumed that if you got the card, you won.

    Then it was thought that if you got ten cards, you would win.

    Now you have to get ten different cards to form a picture.

    If you complete that feat, you get a chance to win!

    Boy, what fun!

    Why does it seem when you get close to the prize, they move it further out of your grasp :evil: ? Oh wait, that's what collecting is all about :roll:

    Man that is such a huge let down. Oh well, I'm going to try and get the complete scull brain set and call it good! I'll be trading off all my bees as soon as I get my box. I'll post on Monday!

    I totally agree. The appeal of these just escapes me.

    I'd still like a giant plastic bee though....if only for novelty value.

    Ideally a 1000% size one. I was thinking 4 ft Kaws COmpanion size...but Skullbeee has a bit too much girth going on.
