    Default CHUG upgrade kits?

    Having seen the Hoist and Trailcutter upgrade set and now the Gears of War kit from TFC I was wondering what are some of the other good GHUG upgrade kits available?
    I started looking through the 3rd party stuff on some of the store sites but there is a lot and I didn't know where to start.

    Take a look through here.

    There was a decent Headmaster upgrade kit for Universe Hardhead a while back. It'll be pretty hard-to-find/pricey now though.

    There are a few different heads for the Classics Bumblebee mold, to turn them into Bumper, Hubcap, or Goldbug. I have the Beelzeboss "Growing Pains" Goldbug upgrade for United Bumblebee and and it's pretty good.
    There's also a few for the latest Thrilling 30 Bumblebee mold, but I don't know all that much about them.

    If you include the Voyager Bludgeon as a CHUG then there's a great upgrade kit with a new head and swords from Headrobots. There's also supposed to be one coming out soon from Perfect Effect.

    There's an upgrade kit for Voyager Blitzwing - new head, new gun, and a fix for the shoulders.

    There are quite a few extra weapon sets for Classics Voyager Optimus Prime. And of course a couple of trailers.

    Going way back there's the FansProject City Commander and Protector armors, and the Crossfire upgrade set for the Energon Bruticus mold. They'll be pretty pricey, though with MP Magnus and a new 3P Bruticus coming out the price might drop. FansProject also did an upgrade kit for Classics Cliffjumper, but that'll be even harder/pricier to get.

    I second FansProject's Protector and City Commander armours/trailers. They make for fantastic Rodimus and Ultra Magnus figures.

    Also Maiden Japan and Luck Rogers both make kits for RTS Wreckgar and all the repaints. Less is more if you're army building with these kits. By picking and choosing piecemeal armour, one kit covered three junkions, I can stretch this to four or five if I start switching arms and legs so none of the junkions are identical.
    Any figure that comes with swords demands wrist articulation.
