I am thinking I would like a reflector to add to the CHUG decepticon cabinet. Which companies have done them and how good are they, I would like one about small deluxe size (like bumblebee). Any input would be appreciated

Cheers, Ken

TFC or Perfect Effect. You might have to some of your own homework on them as it's been a while since I''ve seen them and I don't remember much of it.

The Perfect effect one is quite good. Small, right colours but a bit pricey now. It would be my choice.

FanToys are making one, but it looks a bit large for what you're after. The Perfect Effect ones are much too small for your stated preferred size. Not sure about the TFC ones, but they'd be the closest size-wise AFAIK.

Personally I have the PE ones (the black version, I would have preferred a G1 coloured version but I didn't notice they were the limited edition types - which I now don't really mind), and while tiny and a bit pricey they're otherwise great. If you can live with small robot modes (which makes the camera work that much better IMO) then I'd recommend them.:)
But yeah, research is your friend for not-quite-Reflectors. It really depends on what you're looking for.

Smaller is better than bigger, the problem I had with researching them is that none of hem are called Reflector so starting a search was hard:). At least now I have something to go on.
cheers.
