    Well I ordered the kit a long time ago, but canceled it a long time ago as well :) 
    So after seeing the pics on Seibertron.com I thought hmmm lets get that old G1 Optimus head a few shaves and cuts (nothing more has been done)
    total time from Prime to Goldbug in 3-5hours give or take :p  Cheers! (O and I'll add a picture of the modded weapon later)

    UPDATE:
    OK done new pics added! :)

    You didn't paint the figure, right? It looks like the United Bumblebee figure.

    Yeah I don't see it either. Is it just a head swap?

    It looks good, but it is just the United Bumblebee figure. I am using the same figure for my Goldbug with Venkstas add on kit. I am doing some repainting to mine to make it look more G1 though with more subtle gold shades in the body. Looks good though! =)
