Renderform Gold Scout (Goldbug) & Phoenix Rifle ( Rodimus Gun) kit review

I met up with Venksta and picked up the Gold Scout & Phoenix Rifle

Gold Scout

1) Head
2) 2x Navy gun
3) Orange Gun ( Early Bird Paid Preorders)
4) Alternative Visor
5) Smaller blue gun ( Bonus gun)
6) Clear blue gun ( Bonus gun for those who ordered the Darkwind kit online)
7) Renderform Artwork card

First I like how there are so many guns that comes with this kit. Renderform really allows the buyer to have a choice as to what guns you can use to display with Gold Scout.

One thing I found was that I almost lost the alternative visor. It would be helpful to have a legend on the Artwork card to identify what pieces come with the kit. Sort of like the G1 instruction booklet.

I've always like the Venksta's Renderform artwork. I really enjoying collecting them as I support Renderform kits

Phoenix Rifle

1) Rifle

Venksta said that the Artwork card was not printed yet. But I will get mine eventually

For those who like G1 figures, the rifle by Renderform pays homage to that. The rifle is approximately 4.5 inches long and has similar details to the G1 gun. It is a great alternative to the gun that Fans Project provided with the Protector upgrade kit.

For this upgrade kit, I would have liked to get a few more accessories. But it's not a deal breaker for me to not buy the kit.

All in all, as per usual, Renderform upgrade kits adds to existing figures. I can't wait for the next minibot upgrade kit

I have a few pictures for the review. Apologies if the pictures are a bit small as I had to shrink it to fit the attachment size. I've included a group shot of a few customs I did with Gold Scout. They were inspired by a few Botcon figures. The accessory they are holding is courtesy of Renderform of course!
