Definitely decent. Not terrible, not exceptional, but a hell of a lot better than PCCs. The individual figures look pretty great, at least in bot modes. I'm settling for the retail version, so I have to put up with neon colors, but at least they're still pretty cool.

nice review, but this guy still looks horrible. Perhaps with some heavy customizing this contraption might start to look good, but most likely that would mean the loss of individual bots.

Seibertron member Optibotimus has given the fandom it's first Fall Of Cybertron Bruticus review video!

Here's what he had to say and show:

optibotimus wrote:This is a very long video and i apologize for that. I basically did individual reviews of each robot in my normal style. Ending it with a review of the big guy himself. I included here as well as time stamps in the video description on youtube itself to help you guys out. Enjoy

Swindle's review - 05:43
Brawl's review - 14:44
Onslaught's review - 24:03
Blastoff's review - 36:00
Vortex's review - 45:40
BRUTICUS' review - 53:23

*UPDATE*
Due to rather high request for this, here is a separate video showing the different limb configurations and such. This originally was going to be included in the first video, however i cut it out because the video was already at an hour long. Here's a whole new video. Hope it helps guys



So, now we have an idea of what's to come. Will you be buying? Will you be passing? Let us know by commenting in the thread!

Keep your optics tuned to Seibertron for the latest news!

EDIT: Sorry, Optibotimus. This was definitely newsworthy, we should've had this up sooner.

I rather like the Scramble City nature of these guys. I'm going to try and get every version released which means I'll also be able to mix and match limbs as I see fit and end up with some very diverse combinations, especially since the arms can become legs and the legs can become arms.

Blast Off's arm mode looks ridiculously long and out of proportion when compared to Vortex. The combined form would probably look best with Swindle and Blast Off switched around. Then Bruticus would have arms of roughly equal length.

As a whole the set seems like a case of "Not Bad, But Could've Been Better".

I've been wondering the exact same thing! I've been watching HTS pretty consistently and none of the SDCC exclusives have shown up. I wonder what they're waiting for. I'm growing tired of checking HTS.
