Not the prettiest alt-mode ever, but who gives a damn if it leads us to a REAL FOC combining Bruticus!
Posted by Gearslide on February 7th, 2012 @ 3:56pm CST
At least, I hope that's what it is.

It's the same as Onslaught's chest with a few panels folded open.

Just the head folding back into the chest to reveal the Decepticon symbol.
You can actually see Bruticus' head in Onslaught's vehicle mode.

1.)WFC Onslaught was my favorite MP base, while this figure doesn't look EXACTLY the same, he still looks good to me.
2.) THANK GOD they're continuing the Generations line. I thought they were going to dump it once PRIME started up. Awesome. If they combine, which I can't see why they wouldn't, I'm going to lose my sh*t over this!

Cannot wait for these bad boys to show up. Kinda glad I'm not interested in Prime or much else so I can save up for them.

You'll be happy to know that Jazz has been confirmed. Grimlock (and other dinobots) had better be in there too...

Jazz is being released, we still have no news about Grimlock.

The skinnier body is a little odd, but you know, they had to make it work. I hope him being a deluxe doesn't throw off the combining. A voyager scale might have served him better in all counts.
Posted by PaxCybertron82 on February 7th, 2012 @ 4:24pm CST
I can't wait for this, but on the other hand, I can, as long as if it takes a while, they make them really well. Swindle's pictures look great.

Meanwhile, Onslaught's arms desperately try to hide in torso mode. I'm going to assume he's mis-transformed a bit, but still.

It looks like the feet are just part of Swindle and Brawl instead of being extra pieces.

Yea, the alt mode feels like he needs a trailer or something. Who knows, maybe he'll be able to haul around blast off or vortex or some parts or something.

I'd aldo like to point something out that GI said in their story (bought a game mag for the first time in 15 years today so I could gawk at Brawl & Swindle on lunch ). They mentioned that Jerry Jovin confirmed that the Combaticons are just the first and that there are more figures on the way. Now, this could just mean Prime/Shockwave/Jazz but by the sounds of the interview they will be pushing a lot more figures out - most likely stuff that we'll see at Toy Fair this weekend.
I guess we should keep watching GameInformer for more toys, it also said that they would be showing all of the figures next to the concept art on their website but so far I can't find anything

The connectors on his tires look a little too obvious.
But these aside, this is shaping up to be one kickass combiner!
Posted by Sabrblade on February 7th, 2012 @ 6:41pm CST
And looks awkwardly proportioned compared to his artwork.

Really?
Like the individual bot or vehicles modes are going to see the light of day?!? I mean, personally, the trend of buying 3rd party products in order to get something Transformer related that it is not a plastic pile of crap may have finally come to an end. I love it. I hope they make more. I love that it will not cost $600! I'm buying 3 of these at least. Make no mistake, these figures won't be warming shelves anywhere.
A side note for those reading, that is 8 confirmed (or atleast HEAVILY RUMORED) fig's for the Gen. Line. Can't say anymore... right now.

8 more Generations figures.
Oh, my poor bank account.
At least it won't be for a while so I have time to save up.

Well...part of it we can keep.

I seem to be in the minority when I say that the individual figures are just as important to me as the combined form. That's why I could never pull the trigger on FansProject's Crossfire-02 set: Brawl, Vortex and Onslaught still looked like crap.

Why can you not have criticisms toward this? It very well could be mistransformed or incomplete, but if that is the final product, it's fair to not love every last bit of it. Hercules isn't as awesome as he is because they're able to charge $600. He's $600 because of how small the operation is and the runs are.

......No some like myself are just happy we're getting "something". I'll admit that Onslaught's alt mode is lame but oh well still a purchase on sight.
And as I said on another site this is combiner will not be that big.

Assuming the toy can even hold it on his back in bot mode. :/

If that's how it's supposed to look, yech. It's not bad enough to make me pass on the set; I'm just glad Brawl's and Swindle's alt-modes look much, much better than that (from the limited photography we've seen of them thus far, anyway).
I'm hoping it's just badly mistransformed or is missing some parts. Takara's engineers are good enough that they shouldn't have had to make that many compromises to the vehicle mode to get all three modes to work....
