    Part of this sucks because it is a KO of the FPJ Cliffjumper release. The part that rocks is that FPJ released so few and won;t release more and I want one. :)

    too bad the head isn't different, either way. better than the devil horns upgrade, even if it's a ko

    classsic case of too little too late. with 2 other companies teasing full cliffjumper toys (iGear and Beelzeboss) this upgrade set is pretty pointless, outdated and ugly. the only reason i think anyone has their TFL original is its high rarity.

    I often wish Hasbro Asia would jump on a reissue of Classics Cliffjumper in plain red...I HATE the Classics deco.

    These are reproductions of the 2007 Classic Cliff Conversion Kit, one of the first major 3rd party add on sets. It was made by TFLab, who later became FansProject. They only made 300, and the originals sell for hundreds of dollars now.

    Does anyone have pictures of the previous knockoffs of the CCCK? They made them in yellow and white too.

    Curious... admittedly... don't see what's so great about the FP's original Cliff head... outside of it being different from the Bumblebee repaint. >_>

    At the time it came out there was no other option for a Cliffjumper looking head. Not like today with the BeezleBozz and WFC Cliffjumper head options. Plus they seriously underestimated demand, shooting to price up dramatically. If they sells for $30 or so I'm sure people will buy them.

    That's not the original CJ head from the upgrade kit. I have a KO of the original set and the head looks a LOT better than the one pictured there.
