Our friends at the Transformers Galaxy Hong Kong Fans Group have posted images of two new Bumper and Hubcap upgrade sets for the various incarnations of the Classics Bumblebee mold from a new company calling themselves MGS. As you can see in the images mirrored below each set comes with a new head and weapon. We'll keep you posted as this project develops.

I'll stick with the guy i trust, Renderform. He produces a quality product, is a great communicator, and a member of our community here. he beat these guys to the punch and frankly, his heads look better.

Bumper looks great. Hubcap not so much.

My thoughts exactly. Although I wouldn't mind seeing a Goldbug head from them, I didn't love either of the other two so far.

A new G1 Cliffjumper head would be nice too.

They don't look right. Venksta's look better.

I recently bought the first release of the Classics Bumblebee and surprisingly like the mold. I still think it needs to be a bit smaller but with the release of these 3rd party head molds I might want to pick upa couple more. Buy one of each mold and slap new heads on each of them

You know, Hasbro should just include alternate heads with figures like Bumblebee so we can choose who we want the character would be. Heck, I'd buy three Bumblebee's if they came with heads of Bumper and Hubcap too.

Maybe their next project should be a Powerglide fig...

I agree. I love Renderforms work. he is also offering different Shades of yellow for RTS Bee. I just wish Renderform would forget the release numbers and make to order like Maiden Japan does.
