Plug me in and turn me on! It's G2 PCC!
Just look at those new combiner plugs

[GetRightRobot]

I feel confident that a "united" styled release of these guys is coming as well as a store exclusive stateside that will correct the colors. Sad that it takes a hard to find exclusive or expensive import to justify an Official Transformers purchase.

I'm looking at you too Prime FE's

Yeah...ummm...Yeah. This looks quite awful. Swindle is not that bad, but the rest are quite bad. Almost in every way. Onslaught is giving a good try, but what a hell is he holding. Is that supposed to be a gun of some sort or just a piece of scrapmetal he happened to steal from somewhere?

And what was wrong with the earlier colors we saw? I mean how is this improving things? And those shoulder connectors just look awful. I just don't believe that it is due the mistransformation. They just are like that. The right arm looks still either mistransformerd or it is just as goofy looking as it is. Maybe they should hire someone who can actually transform these for promotional photos, but still I don't believe that this is going to look so much different IRL.

No, hasbro doesn't have to make any formal apologies, for it is just a toy. But it is a toy, that I for one am not going to buy. Shame, for I was expecting to have better official new Bruticus combiner. If this would have looked anything like the one in some of those photoshopped pictures made by a fan (don't remember who did it), this would have been so much better.

At least Shockwave and the rest looks better.

Sweet.

Ok, not great, but it's better than the Universe/Energon/Whatever Bruticus.

Im always hoping Hasbro will deliver a better look for their combiners but always they fell short in many occasions. Anyway, I'm still getting this when they comes out in the market and maybe wait for a fansproject upgrade! (just like what happened to bruticus maximus!)

I think they may use the versions of Vortex and Onslaught we see here, but with the 1st versions of Swindle, Brawl, and Blast Off. They seem to be the most accurate.

[DecepticonFinishline]

Well, I think I like them more as individual robots. I like Swindle and Onslaught the mostest. The colours are pretty awful though.

[Fires_Of_Inferno]

I like the way these things look. Also, we're probably never going to get a perfect combiner out of hasbro. The best ones I've seen out of them were Predaking, Tripredacus, and Magnaboss.

Also: Has anyone else noticed that these guys all have the movie-verse Decepticon symbol?

Vortex in the game is mostly tan/yellow with red on his chest.

But at this point it's just speculation right? Takomy has neither confirmed nor denied that this will yet happen unless it's a sure bet? All the combaticons look great individually in bot mode IMO.
