Following suit of their previous announcement, Transform Dream Wave also reveal details of their upgrade kit for Combiner Wars Defensor. Similar to their Bruticus kit, this set includes these pieces that will give Denfensor a whole different look. A newly designed torso piece with a brand new Defensor head that will fully integrate with Hotspot in robot and vehicle mode. Hand and foot pieces that can turn into individual weapons, although the hand does not appear they will turn into a hand cannon as seen in the Bruticus kit. There are also panel piece for the sides of Hotspot and 2 cannon piece to elongate Hotspot’s cannon as well. While solid release information is not available at the moment, you can check out the details images to this set after the jump.

Anyone have these sets for sale? Dm me please.
RyanCharlie
You missed the boat. Start watching for it on ebay.
Stranger2306
Anyone know where the upgrade kit might still be in stock? I can't find it anywhere.
BigSargePete
Yep!
eBay.
RyanCharlie
No. There's a few pieces someone upscaled that were available on Shapeways but the full kit was never upscaled.

standard ko or wei jiang OS?
EDIT: NVM i stopped being a lazy arse and read through the thread
are there c+ custom kits for the WJ OS?

Where did you get it for $25?

Are those the guns from the Starscream/Abominus kits? If so, that is exactly what I had in mind for them as well.

Picked up a KO Defensor set for under $30. Then the TDW kit for just over $25. Skipped the thighs changeout. Not bad for less than 60 bucks.View attachment 28211995 View attachment 28211996 View attachment 28211997

I found this online, shows the difference in color between the CW set and the UW set.

Good to know the color matches now but those two heads are useless to me…i would rather keep the stock head.

What does Hot Spot look like in robot mode from behind after applying the parts?

I also noticed mine has red eyes on the face instead of green.
Must be another change for the American CW version?
gnguye3
I don't remember getting this face. I got one with a cigar.. lol. Dang if only I had known.

I just bought this set from BBTS for $45.
Clearly they must have done another run in CW colors because my blue matches up perfectly. I had no idea.

Ahh okay thank you for the help! Yeah I could never get it to fit right, so now I will try your method.
NemesisJazz
I wish the head was better on this set
Sigmalock
Thanks for the reply, @Arko22!
Yeah, I thought that was what you were 'supposed' to do; what a shame the execution isn't better, because the idea was actually pretty good.
I think I might go with your suggested solution, instead
Arko22
So this is coming pretty late, i know. But i can help you out
So, here is what you're 'supposed' to do:

See how the 'thigh' bits are sort of shaped to fit in the inside of the lower legs? The thing is, they don't really fit.
SO, instead, i do this:

I leave them extended so that the wheels will all be on the same level. It give hotspot more length as well.
