Ektris Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I finally found out what Retail!Bruticus was based off of. The Energon!Bruticus had the same neon colors when he got released.Yes he is.That doesn't change the fact that he's excessively gaudy.In my opinion, anyways.~|ET|~ Quote E-T... Phone home.

Scrash Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Really, I think only Swindle looks bad in the retail version, mainly 'cause that yellow doesn't work for me. Even Brawl's lime green doesn't look so deterring. Oh, well. I still might end up picking up the retail Bruticus, especially if I don't end up picking up the SDCC version.

Ajad_Prime Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 So Hasbro is insanely aggravating me. Like someone suggested I went to contact them and sent in an emailed question they've yet to reply to yet. Then I managed to get in the live chat and the lady was extremely helpful and understood and said she was going to email me a packing slip to ship the Jazz figure back to them. Unless she meant mail I have yet to recieve this packing slip in an email Quote Pokemon Black Friend Code: 0389 8396 7500 OT: Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrash Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 *huge sigh of relief*Well, after a lot of effort to scrounge together the cash, today I was able to finally purchase my SDCC Bruticus (for a bit more than he was at HasbroToyShop, but whatever).

-Golden Knight- Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 That's pretty awesome. I saw a review of him, and Onslaught is easily the weakest looking of the Combaticons.

I have him with a few other of my CHUG Decepticons, and while he's a bit on the small side in robot mode, he displays awesomely in both forms.That's pretty awesome. I saw a review of him, and Onslaught is easily the weakest looking of the Combaticons. He's actually shorter than the rest of the figures.I have to agree with you on Onslaught. He really should've been a small Voyager or something. The vehicle mode is especially meh, what with the Bruticus head being in plain sight. I think they could've done a lot more with him to make him stand out as the leader of the Combaticons or something, and something as simple as a larger overall size would've probably worked. Oh well.

Scrash Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Well, I read the preview for MTMTE #7.Oh man... the DJD... I mean... wow. I feel bad for Black Shadow, though; I'm a really big fan of his Generations toy, and he was a Phase Sixer in the comics, and his reputation briefly mentioned by Tarn made him seem like a pretty big deal. And the way the DJD were talking, they've dealt with Phase Sixers in the past. I really want toys of these guys, though I doubt Hasbro would go for the robot-into-torture-device thing, haha.

-Golden Knight- Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 You know they're sadistic when they have non-mobile torture devices for alt modes. I think I might have to order MTMTE Volume 1 online.

Just wait until they hit US retail this fall.Anyone know where I can buy FE TF:Prime figures, such as FE Deluxe Bumblebee and FE Voyager Optimus Prime?They'll be returning to TRUs during the fall and winter seasons, though places like BigBadToyStore and Amazon probably still have some FE 'Bees left for about retail price.They'll be getting released in the US.

Granted, sometimes solo missions are necessary.I personally felt that with the broken multiplayer, co op was WFC saving grace. I personally like to play campaign with friends.
