Bumper is a Minibot that was never officially released in the U.S., but got mispackaged in Bumblebee's package on occasion. After my success with the relatively simple Cliffjumper mod, I decided to get a little more ambitious with this one, making a new weapon and painting up the toy a bit more. I sent the Wave Crusher to [livejournal.com profile] thandrak who lost hers.

Nice work on the head.

Personally, I've been meaning to find a 'bee on markdown and kitbash him into Classics Searchlight, but that would require heavy sculpt work on the front end (and ideally, on the roof).

But man, how awesome would that be?

Oh, BTW, apparently if Bumper *was* to have been released in the U.S., he'd have been white. At least that's what the... Brazillian? Argentinian? packaging suggests.

Insofar as there's existing card art for the guy, and he's white in that.

-hx, he also has a bio where he was a strategist of some type. Monzo has all the info on that, as usual.

Yeah, he was released as "Sedan". The TFU.info page I linked to mentions the Strategist thing.

I may not have all the Classics Seekers, but I have exclusive Classics Minibots! ;)

I tried to dye a Classics Bumblebee blue, but ended up warping some of the parts.


I was planning on making him a Skids.
