- Motto: "No matter where you go, there you are."
I have to say, now that I own myself a Bruticus (thanks to Takra's and Fansproject's re-releases), I find the idea of this accessory somewhat superfluous. Bruticus already has a chest plate, made up of the front of Onslaught's truck with the sides splayed out. And with the new crotch piece that Fansproject's set supplies, which is color-matched with the chest area, it really does capture the look of the G1 toy's chest piece nicely. And everything there already integrates nicely into the vehicle mode, while frankly this "cowcatcher" idea just -- to me, at least -- looks damn foolish.
To people who do like it... More power to you, and I hope you enjoy it! However, I just think it is silly. Really, the only further add-on I would want to see for Bruticus would be better heads for Onslaught, Vortex, and Brawl. (Brawl could be tricky, however... It might need to maintain the guns to ether side of the head for the sake of the vehicle mode, but I suppose it could do that and still have a better looking face between those guns.)
