    It's so funny how 3rd parties always happen to be making the same product.

    If it's $30 I'm glad I went with Venksta's. His come with two guns and an option for visors for the same price.

    HA!
    I can mold a gun from a turd... Talk about complete rip off... The head looks nice & all... But the cost is unjustifiable.

    I'd go with Venksta's, if it was still available. This is a good alternative though.

    If I wasn't able to order Venksta's RF-006 Gold Scout Kit, from his site Renderform.com, this would have been my back up plan.

    That makes perfect sense. If Vensksta isn't making anymore, go for this one. It looks sharp enough.

    And what company are they following up on exactly? Because if you're taking about Renderform, they showed off their Goldbug head after these guys.

    I really like the G1 look of this one over Renderform's kit.

    Venksta showed his Goldbug's head design months before beezleboss announced theirs. He posted it in his renderform discussion thread, right here on tfw.

    Honestly, those guns he comes with are too big. It doesn't make sense for Goldbug to have such big guns, especially when they're bigger than alot of Deluxe Classics weapons.

    As X Nightmare mentioned we've seen Venksta's sketches for his Goldbug head before Bezelboss debuted theirs. They've also followed up Fansproject's Cliffjumper upgrade with their own version.

    Venksta gets my support because of the cool heads he's made like Darkwing and Red Alert as well as upcoming heads like Goldbug, Hubcap, Bumper and Erector.
