Exceptionally sweet....especially because I don't need to buy them since I have all the G1 gestalts! Now I can save a little, take my time, and get Metroplex instead. 
But for those without these figures--what great news!

I got enough Combaticons and their various repaints over the years. Pass.
If it were the Stunticons, Terrorcons, The Pretender Monsters (aka Dinoking), the Seacons, or the Predacons then I might be interested but Car Robots and RiD have completely burned me out on this group.

Omigod this is unbelievably awesome. It's about damn time that they reissued this as an original G1 reissue. It was the no-brainer reissue to me this whole time. I could never believe that we were getting repaint after repaint of this mold yet no one released it as a reissue.
Finally, indeed. Now bring on the rest of the gestalts dammit!

I'm hoping they'll do something with tampos or paint apps. or something to make them more cartoon accurate like they did with several other Encore reissues.
I wonder if E-Hobby will give us a version of these so we can have yet another repaint

Frankly, I am NOT surprised at all, since those molds has been reused to death in the last years. What do surprise me is that they didn't came up with this earlier before. I would love to see the box this militia will come in!
Combaticfans (me included of course *pointing at sig bellow!*) will surely rejoice to have not only a repaint of the Cybertron team sharing the names but also the original team as well. I do own both of them already (G1 not being 100% "G1" so that is an extra motivation) but despite that, if my budget wasn't ill I would gladly invest on these two without hesitations!

Wow! I'm surprized so many people are happy about it. I'm planning on getting this set. I've only got the original RiD Ruination and have been considering getting another version. But I'm concerned about the quality control. I heard that because this mold was reused so many times, the mold degraded so much that it broke. But I hope they reissue more gestalts afterword.

Yes, they will all be redecoed in a purple/pink/white specked pattern with Autobot idents.
Named the Partybots, Streatdealer, Whirlybird, High Flier, Tanked, and their leader Big Blast, they will merge into Raveicus.

I think people are more happy because this was a set that Hasbro could have done and made a killing off of back when they were doing reissues. Really this was a set that should have been done be it by Takara or Hasbro.
Anyways...
dang it! dang it! dang it!
I bought a G1 Bruticus back in 2007. Had I known they were going to do this I would've held off. Now I gotta hold off on Superion, Menasor, Defensor, Abominus, Computron, and Pirhanacon.

Awesome, I had all the G2 ones but they are all in pieces and are somewhere in crates all together and I believe one of them is broken. Now I can own the G1 version, but I wish is was Menasor though.

Here's more food for thought ... how about for the eHobby version they give us a G2 set or even better yet ... how about the extremely rare and very expensive Japanese exclusive Battle Gaia set. Please please please somebody be considering this so that I can save myself $1400 at some point.
Speaking of which, where's an eHobby Metrotitan set? I'll have to send an email to my contact at eHobby.

Well said both of you! I only have the RiD repaint so I will definitely be making an effort to get this! With any luck this will lead to us getting the rest of the gestalts somewhere down the line!

have a G1, G2, Ruination, Arctic camo, tiger striped camo, two custom painted knockoffs and a third sitting unfinished. I think I'm good unless the paint scheme is outstanding. Looks like alot of people wanted this so I'm glad that they have released it but its probably a pass for me. Would get it a ehobby Battle Gaia though, same with Metrotitan if they ever did it.

Man, I just can't get Battle Gaia out of my head. It would be very incredible to be able to add Battle Gaia to my set of Bruticus repaints. Then they'd all be one huge happy family at last.

Sure as hell beats $1300+ on eBay for an original.
I sent an email to my contact at e-Hobby. Not sure if they'll respond or not. My contact doesn't have the best English from our past email conversations and my Japanese is non-existent so we'll see if I can get any information about the possiblity of a Metrotitan or a Battle Gaia from them.

Agreed...but that's probably why they are doing them: they have intact molds. The only good thing is that maybe this is the beginning of Gestalt reissues and we'll see some of the other groups coming out soon.
It finally happened. The Chicago Cubs won the World Series. Yes, I cried.
