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

This looks like something I would buy, provided I had the money and the RTS Bumblebee. Sadly I have neither at the moment, and wasn't really interested in buying an RTS Bumblebee. Maybe that may change though if my budget opens up a bit more.

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

Hey all!

Thought I'd drop some thoughts on my first Renderform purchase, which is the awesome Gold Scout upgrade.

I was all over this the moment I saw it. Since my childhood TF experience was based primarily on the comics (and still is to this day), Goldbug was the predominant VW in my Transformers for quite a long time.

Went the announcement for this kit went up, I sold off my Henkei BB and got myself a United BB-- and waited.

Well the wait's over, and here we are. Zero disappointments. I went with the blue version in spite of the availability of the more comics-accurate yellow version. I always enjoyed the contrasting blue of the toy version over the comics' one-colour Yomtov job.

I find the detailing for the head is just where it needs to be for a modern classics-type figure, and installation was easy enough. Mind you, my only basis for comparison here is iGear's Stogie-Chompin' Kup, which I remember being an experience made of swear-words.

My one criticism: His noggin's a wee bit floppy on the peg. Nothing that impedes posing or whatnot, but enough to point out.

He also came with an aft-load of weapons, which is pretty cool. Goldbug never had much in the way of a signature weapon, and I was on board regardless, so I don't really have much to offer in this arena. The guns are designed well and look like genuine TF accessories, which I guess is all they need to be, eh?

I'd also like to express a specific praise for the little artwork card that came with it. Venksta does some awesome renders, and I think this is easily my favorite from him. Really a cool addition to the package that feels a little above-and-beyond for me. Nice touch.

And Venksta himself? Man, SO easy to do business with. Look forward to doin' so again in the future.

Basically, I'd say grab one of these while ya can-- if for no other reason than to have MP Grimlock, wearing his crown, shaking his fist at your Goldbug from the other end of your shelf. You Marvel TF kids know what I'm talkin' about.

I paid $30 for my kit. Venksta is busy fulfilling some of the other Goldbug orders. I placed an order recently on a couple of his weapon series but haven't gotten invoiced yet either. We will eventually get an invoice soon.
