New Images - Takara Transformers Unite Warriors UW07 Bruticus

This is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!

The blue on vortex on this first photo looks fine.

The jeep front chest on Swindle is great

Blastof is definitely more brown thatn orange and the brown on the Buticus chest is a good tone too.

I especially love how it doesnt at all hurt the vehiclemode for onslaught sicne the guns are covering it.

The matching feet actually work well. For once the fact that CW feet are small give an advantage to making the illusion that they are part of the limb figures and not feet on their own.

I still find the colours clash on Blastoff's shuttle mode and I ont like the arms. That's my main negative point about all this. Still a great set!

Looking forward to getting it on nippon yassan.

Oh yeah... And Blast off is ok in my book!

One question though.

How does the tail-fin for Blast-off end up on his back, if it starts on the back of the legs?

It seems it's gotta scooch right up the torso and flip around to the other side on the way, presumably becoming part of a completely different parts assembly.

Does it just un-peg and plug back in elsewhere?

Yeah, I think it's a partsforming bit, unpegging...

And I think I'll keep my preorder....how many Brutici must I have *rolls eyes at himself*

Wow, Blast Off looks surprisingly crummy, and Swindle's vehicle mode suffers from forcing a purple hood where it isn't conducive. Really is a mixed bag to simulate a color pattern that was created entirely in the animation cheats/liberties of the show.

Why do Brawl and Swindle have colour matching limbs pieces?

Still I like

Well...... I like the Swindle. And Onslaught's colors in alt mode. Otherwise, I'm not too keen on this. Blast Off shuttle looks better than our Blast Off... But doesn't really look like it fits the aesthetic of the rest of Combiner Wars. In my opinion.

Halloween Blast Off and Night Strike Alpha Bravo!

I like Blast Off, but the rest are pretty meh to my eyes, I'm not liking those decos. I'm glad I went with Hasbro versions. If they end up releasing the shuttle mold, I'll buy it.

Someone did some comparisons to Hasbro but they are small:

Not even sure why someone did the comparison between orange-off and blast-off they're entirely different molds, it'd be like comparing rook to bigroove, seems like a real d|ck move on their part
