I'll get it if it looks like there is a way to modify it. I think they should have put more though into the arm design.

Not bad looking, I'm sure the chest section and arms could be tightened up to look more cohesive and aesthetically pleasing. My biggest gripe though is the use of different sized hands. Come on Takara I just want the same size hands on both sides. I also wonder if Bruticus will have elbow joints? Its 2012 now this guy should of elbows joints!

the arms look awful, the rest is ok.....nothing impressive like the FP Bruticus. Pretty disappointed with it.

he looks pretty good, however the overall mass that he posses makes him look way to skinny and the shoulder connection joints are way to long, but i guess thats what you get when you do it in deluxe class and not a voyager class.
i wonder if they will make them vogager class later on.

Brawl & Swindle looks good in both robot & vehicle mode. Onslaught vehicle mode is kinda short & small.The head & body of Bruticus are great but the arms & legs are too big & look kinda unbalance.

Wow.... had to realize it was gonna be carnage after seeing it. Its amazing how at the end of the day they are like "Yeah that looks great, lets go with that."
Depends on future pictures if I pick this up or not. Kinda stupid to have a bruticus looking like that standing next to the awesome FP one :/

Perhaps FP will come again to the rescue and make add on to it to make it at least worthy, can call it crossfire 3. What ever happen to FP. They have been silent for way too long. Where is the last two Causality figure, the hearts of steel figure, the crossfire 3 project and warbot 2 figure?

it seems that some people think is still miss-transformed, a tendency that Hasbro always have when taking a pic of the products so perhaps is what is causing it to look a bit off for everyone not to mention the camera angle.
to be fair, since this figures is not gonna be out till August/September and is still in the works, im hoping they redesign it a bit more to make it look closer to the game concept version than making it look like a PCC, i hate those PCC (except for Grimstone since his the only one that looked cool on that figure line). IMHO, this Bruticus is not a true FoC style but more to the PCC look so i cant considered it to be a generation line.
I mean is ridiculous to think that a big company like Hasbro that has possibly over more than 200 employes cant do a nice looking combiner that looks like equal if not close enough to the game concept while a 3rd party that is a small group can out do them in such a thing. i understand they have some budget to work around plus safety standards, but let me remind you Supreme class Unicron Primus, leader class RotF Optimus Prime or Megatron, heck even RotF Supreme legends class Devastator are something that goes above those standards.
i would prefer if they change them into voyager class so they can do it a bit much better if size is the issue.

Well the design is really Takara's and they should know better. Hasbro is a concept company that leaves the engineering of Transformers to Takara plus with all the 3D modeling that's done for the game it really should look a lot closer to the game design.

yeah i saw it yesterday,
- Prime looks ok, but he looks so simple to transforms that i don't consider him as a deluxe IMO. - Jazz looks bad with with those tiny legs, they look seriously small bad. goof think i manage to get the RtS Jazz. also unnecessary fake wells are unnecessary. - Shokwave is the only one that for me he looks the best, not perfect but his superior than the others. - some of the Combaticons looks great like Brawl, Swindle, and Blast off. but Onslaught and Vortex need some fixing, specially Onslaught - The combine form Bruticus is a bit disappointing, they decided to go in the route of PCC looks which is a concept i didn't want to see again in any combiner.
Hasbro said Bruticus will be there biggest combiner ever made and to be honest, i don't think it will be.

Im very disapointed in the look of all these figures. Generations Optimus was awesome looking. This one looks pretty crapy imo and Jazz is tragic looking. Shockwave looks the best but like it was said above its far from perfect... and bruticus looks like trash. Thanks for the lack of effort once again.

I think the previous optimus is so much better looking. I really wonder if this will end up being the same size as the previous version. I wish Jazz looked like the model from the game. Shockwave looks decent and would lend himself to good customs. I like the torso for bruticus, but that is about it. I will likely get that part and consider making something for limbs.

for the most part ive stayed away from tf since gen 2, with the exception of a few beastwars, but being an 80s kid and a kid at heart i want to just say, since i still play with my toys, i miss the transformers who looked like they could take a hit! all this way out-there "futuristic" bs makes them all look like pu$$ies (pardon my french), i want the robot face to look like warriors again and their alt modes to look like something that would actually work.., this might be in the wrong post i guess, but i just wanted to say im not looking for that 80s look but a tf like that can kick ass and take a punch without cogs and gears flying; is that supposed to be blood?!? Bruticus is what i was waiting for but now that i see him im sad again. is it just me or do they all look a little chimp-ish

starscream looks quite good he was one of the figures i hoped for the first time around. you can also almost bet the thundercracker and skywarp will be on there way as they were just repaints in the first game and looked just like him.

well damn, starscream looks great, i even would are say his the best looking of all the figures.
but i better not jump to conclusions to fast and wait for more pics of it. i hope they do skywarp and thundercraker, heck im looking forward they do the aerialbost and jetfire.
