Yea, I got the kit about a 3 weeks, and as others have said, it is worth every penny. I only wish that I had ordered the full kit rather than just the head and rifle. If you all have a choice when your invoice arrives, I highly suggest upgrading to the full kit if you havent, it looks to be worth it from all the pics I have seen. Thanks again Nano, it really makes this figure great.

Got mine today and had some trouble fitting it together but now it's assembled and awesome! Rifle & sword on the right and arm cannon & U Dropshot's rifle on the left with the back cannons half down. Over kill doesn't begin to describe him now!

Good job, Nate! :APPLAUSE:

(sorry about the bitching...)

Got mine today.

It's a fun upgrade. Simple to do with a noticable effect.

The guns are very nice, the recoil rifle is especially fun.

The Roadbuster head is of course the main attraction. The sculpt is very nice, there are no transforming issues, and it's all snap into place easy.

My only gripe (and it's a minor one that I could fix with some superglue), is that because the head is snap together and held via pressure, there is just a little bit of give-type movement when you turn his head. It feels like it might seperate, but doesn't. Again, it's not a problem, just a result of me choosing not to glue it on.

Primo set here Nato! You really gave this figure a second chance at being a true Classic. Overall upgrade rating: A

So whatever happened with this upgrade set? Did it ever come out? I don't see that BBTS or TFsource has it and nato-bot's website no longer works.

Yes it came out in two waves, one about a year ago and another 6 months later. Nate was just making them in his garage, no retailer involved, so you ordered it straight from him. It was a sweet little upgrade that made a lackluster repaint really shine. I actually sold mine to a fellow member of this board a couple months ago but Natobot is a member here so you can PM him.
