Forget that 'Gold Bumblebee' stuff: here's the real deal!

The originator of this idea was someone on TFW 2005's Radicons boards. It was really easy - five to 10 minutes. Immerse gold Bumblebee in a cup of just-boiled water for 3-5 minutes, rip the head off, cut off the Throttlebot Goldbug's head and glue it on.

My camera does not have a macro function. When the weather is better I will try taking pictures in natural light.

And thanks to Bruticus for letting me take the Goldbug torso off his hands. I don't think he's seen someone so excited over junkers....

Argh - Why couldn't they do that to begin with? :confused:
That's an awesome custom Snakey, one of the easiest but easily one of your best - great work! :D:cool:
