    yeah, I'm slow. This is old news already.
    My Sector70 Minibot Repaint Challenge entry piece. Bumper. Made using Classics Bumblebee and Cybertron Cannonball's head. Paints were all testor's model master enamels. The yellow is Blue Angel Yellow fs13655. I tried to make him look as little like bumblebee as I possibly could. Now I have most of the "official" and original minibots planned for reshells, so I had to find a bot that I didn't have planned but would still fit with my collection. After a little research the factory error got the assignment. Classics bb was the obvious body. and it didn't take very long to realize how close cannonball's head resembles IDW's bumper head. Enjoy

    It seems they are stock, unless you mean the paint apps

    Great work. This got my vote in the sector70 contest. I have one planned already with the classics movie 3-pack black striped bumblebee that was available at walmart

    this is great, the guns are probably modified Neo-shifter guns, the mini orb bots had guns like that.

    I like the carmode especially! You achieved your goal, it doesn't look like Bumblebee at all, even with all the yellow.
