Looks great. Too bad I can't get Red Alert for a reasonable price.

Ah, thanks. I looked up the henkei version instead of the classics and it was going for a fortune. Now I'll have to rethink this.

If you had the Henkei Alert figure, it wouldn't be worth getting the Heroic Duo kit just for his parts - already has a red head and shoulder rocket launcher, but would get the new gun. Also, Alert came out at least a year or more from the Hasbro Generations release of Red Alert, so he's not as in demand.

Good luck bidding!

I think I saw somewhere that the kit matches the red of the hasbro Red Alert better than the other versions, or that could be reversed??? I don't know?


Man.... when is BBTS getting these in stock!!!!???????

Disapointed with Kapow on this one. No message from them regarding the lateness? I had to email them a few weeks ago asking and they said their shipment was being held up in customs.

That was 3 weeks ago.

Now we get peoples video reviews and still no Beelzeboss love? >:oP

:-? Well after another email to Kapow Toys, they came back apologising about their lateness with these add-ons.
Kapow Toys wrote:not good news sadly, we've really been let down on these at the moment and have been waiting an age for them, they read as pending customs inspection on tracking but Parcelforce sadly have no records of the parcel, we've re-ordered them from another company and they are in transit to us at the moment, it does read like a catalogue of errors so far so please accept my apologies, problems like this are rare and as a good will gesture we can offer you 10% off the purchase price if you keep your order with us, there is obviously the option of a full refund if required.

If I can help with anything else please just ask

Kind regards

Andy

So Red Alert looks tons better with the upgrade, but I'm not a major fan of his headsculpt. He has the face of a wee baby :)

or maybe an Ewok?

Spud guns! :lol:
I used to love a good spud gun when I was a kid!! ;)

You wont be disapointed with this awesome set, it really makes these two Autobots COMPLETE! :grin:
I am really loving a nice new head sculpt from 3rd Party players and Beelzeboss are one of the best in my opinion.
I really could do with a Classics Cliffjumper head so I can make my Minibot molds complete! :D

Go for the Cliffjumper upgrade kit courtesy of Beelzeboss then! I was too late for the red head so had to go for the yellow version. But some spray paint sorted that problem out :)

Thanks Banjo-Tron! I did actually consider that after purchasing the yellow version. Bumblejumper/yellow looks great and goes really well with my other two bee molds (youve probably seen my pics posted?).
It is a shame that the various heads produced for the Bumblebee/Cliffjumper mold are limited as such, so picking one up at a later date is often reflected in the price! :BANG_HEAD:

My Cliffjumper really needs his correct head sculpt applying, and the recent version announced/released (?) by MGS just wasnt quite right! ;)

Just take the head off of this fella maybe?

Your Bumblebee collection is very cool. I am trying to make Hubcap from the regular Reveal the shield Bumblebee head.

Does anyone think there is any chance they do another run of the Beelzeboss Cliffjumper head???

I missed out on it when it was first out....


Also, I'm a little ticked I got the first set of the Heroic Duo with all the flaws and the second version has all the fixes....I mean still looks good, but some of the changes are pretty significant.

:D
Thought about that too! He has a great head mold but I wasnt sure if it had the same ball joint attachment or something different?
I am almost sure its been discussed somewhere already when WfC Cliffjumper was announced/released, so if anyone here can remind me that would be great! ;)
