Oh so-late-in-November-it's-practically-December, you cannot come soon enough.

So, uh, why does it say Optimus Prime under G2 Bruticus' name? o_O;;;

This actually looks like Ruination's combined form from the slideshow. I guess it's a good representation of what it'll look like minus the color scheme and combined head mold.

Look at the post right above you.

GREAT!

I also saw another repaint of Bruticus. I think they're going to milk him :p. Anyway no problem since the arms/legs seem interchangable. So you can buy two and they'll kinda look different
I'm waiting for the Grey Urban Camo repaint, but SDCC version will be my first!

I was quite confused at that, too!

Again, I blame marketing student interns.


I like that the limbs can be swapped, and I think I like these colours more.
But I'm not sure I want any of the figures anyway. Hm.

Oh my word, that packaging is amazingly hideous...I love it! Beings back a lot of memories.

the toy is beautiful but that package is just... WOW!!! i mean it's so classic.

This looks great! Is it me, or does the combined toy look better with Blastoff and Vortex as the legs?

Oh man, the more I see, the more G2-Beautiful it is!

This'll possibly be the first box I won't toss away...

Same here. xD

IT'S STILL CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd buy that for how gloriously bad/90's the color scheme is. so bad (in regards to color scheme) it's actually good Though the box art's just gorgeous

I'm ssssoooooo happy I got this preordered.

The colors are so awful that they're awesome.

Plus G2 con symbols . Just that is awesome.

The box is super sexy.

Hasrbo you've stepped a little bit.

Did I mention how awesome this looks.

Last week we reported on the upcoming Fall of Cybertron G2 Bruticus that Hasbro had on display at SDCC 2012, which comes complete with replica G2 packaging, which Hasbro painstakingly recreated. We finally had a chance to update the existing gallery with detailed pictures of the back and sides of the packaging which includes the bio card and other aspects which complete the replica G2 feel of this unique packaging. Check out the pictures below ...

Great pics! I'm so glad that I got this coming in November. The colors just work with the molds. Plus the box is awesome. The box and all five of them will be on my shelf.

I think I'll be keeping this box.

I hope we see some other FoC figures done in the G2 style. I'd love a blue Grimlock (he was the first TF toy I had, along with green Slag and red Snarl).

I can not wait to get this Big Bad Battlin' Dudicus into my hands!

This deco is the G1 Bruticus character, while the SDCC and retail decos are the Fall of Cybertron Bruticus character.

I can't believe so many people think bruticus is a nice looking combiner. Wait till you have him in hand to see what a disappointment he really is

Opinions, man. We're not gonna "find out" that we share your opinion. If we still like him, we still like him. If we don't, we don't.

Aside from any unpredictable QC issues, I'm fairly certain that not only will he be my collection's centerpiece, but he'll also be my favorite of all. Well, the G2 version at least.

If you don't want yours, I'll be happy to buy it off ya...

The people who are getting G2 Bruticus have several months to put their expectations at a realistic level. Plus, they're spending a LOT less money and going through a LOT less hassle, so there's much less of that "this had better be worth it" feeling.

We're also paying a good bit less than retail, too. So, not only do we get FoC Bruticus, we get a massive nostalgiagasm and a great deal. And I'll say the same thing I've said all along, the more I see, the more I want it to be here, lol.

Okay, I admit. I just pre-ordered. $60 for a G2 decoed Bruticus is pretty sweet. Especially since buying the individual figures in retail will be more expensive and more of a hassle. I still HAVE my G2 Bruticus. Guess I'll be displaying them together.

I guess if you don't own any 3rd party combiners or the rotf bruticus with FP kits or with out. He looks like a great combiner compaired to a g1 combiner unless you have 3rd party kits on your g1 combiner. The individual robots are nice but they are still very light feeling like the FOC prime,jazz and shockwave. But besides that they look nice but in combined mode not so much his arms are to long his hands look bad and the connection points show to much. Why is one point purple and the other black. Also the idea of being able to swap limbs anywhere is cool but not when you lose articulation. And then hasbro puts a different head on him moves the arms around and calls it a totally different combiner and people are happy. And this version of brut is nowhere near being centerpiece material unless you have no other combiners or MP figures. And I am actually thinking about selling him but if I do I want exactly what I paid for him because he's MISB I played with my friends before I opened mine
