    Thought I'd have a crack at doing an upgraded Bumblebee using Artfeather's Bumblebee and a Goldbug Beezleboss kit. Used a plasti-kote gold chrome so the paint job is nice and durable. Is fully transformable....I think it turned out quite well :D

    Cheers fellas!

    Cheers man. I gotta be honest, I totally forgot to post this and he has been sitting on my shelf for a few weeks. Magnus was a WIP then but is now pretty much done....head is in place and he is just waiting for his face, thread is here for upto date pics:

    This is absolutely fantastic! I think this is the coolest version of Goldbug I have seen yet.

    Nice work! Out of curiosity, are you planning to get the AF Goldbug that's slated to come out soon?

    Cheers guys :D 

    Cheers man and nope. Not keen on the colour of the fact he comes with Bumblebee's gun. The only decent thing about that pack, IMHO, is Chip Chase but I'm sure he'll be available from another third party separately or as an accessory to a MP in the future. I'm planning on turning my original AF 'bee into Goldbug when MP 'bee is released to cover that spot.

    I don't think the pics are doing this any justice. It almost looks a bit coppery....could be my phone though.
    But I like it!

    This is amazing! My guess is this will look great next to MP-21 Bumblebee!
