Hasbro's gotta hire these guys. It'd be nice to get these guys mass produced on national levels.

Fansproject has created some serious nerd porn here. These are fantastic.

It will be hard to top 2010 if we get Protector, Defender, and the Crossfire figures all in the same year.

DDDDDDAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMNNNNNNN.............That Explorer (Blast off) is epic! He's cooler than

Beautiful. FansProject needs to create a completely new combiner set from scratch.

They're going to. They've already shown some early drawings of a prehistoric style mammel, Beast Wars looking combiner called Glacialbot. With they skills they're developing, it's almost certain they'll build it at some point.

I asked a member of the Fansproject team that lives around my area, and he said that they have no plans for making a devastator upgrade, because Crazy Devy was already doing stuff for devastator. He also did hint that Crazy Devy might be doing a Predaking upgrade.

And how would an upgrade for Classics Devastator work, anyway?

They look awesome. Love the details. Now, I wish they would re-do them all.

MMMMMMmmm

Right here. These are fantastic stand alone figures.

Great, now you guys have me thinking about ordering a second set!

Too late.. The price is already shooting through the roof. Not to mention the availability is nonexsistent . Everywhere I look he's sold out. I don't feel too bad though, when I did find Bruticus in target I grabbed but a kid and his mom where also eye ballin it. He told his mom that he wanted to spend his allowance on the " transformers that combine with tanks and stuff"..I couldn't walk off with Brut in my hands after that..

I`m with you on that.

for me it would be a third set, my second is already staying misb + collectors upgrade (whatever that actually means...2 bucks?). Not a bad idea at all though! Would certainly be something to do with the BrutMax limbs that get replaced, I always liked the idea of the leader towering over his team ala Motormaster and the Stunticons. Classics onslaught would help achieve that. Looking forward to getting these in hand, I really want to see some comparison shots next to figures we all have, a classics seeker maybe.

Actually this idea would work really well considering these two guys will be taking the place of one of the helicopters and one of the tanks. Put the two cast aways with Uni Onslaught your seconds Crossfire set and you have a complete team of stand alone Combaticons.

Requiem Prime wrote:Yay! I actually like the Energon Bruticus Mold. Doing the legs Peaughs way, he comes out as one of the best of the "recent" combiners.

What way is that? Is there an image somewhere?

Y'know, considering TFCC's last comic used Universe Onslaught for a Cybertron pre-combiner appearance, that's not such a bad idea. Swindle and Blast Off were slightly smaller than the other three, and it looked like Vortex used an edited take on Evac/Universe Blades. All you would need is a tank for Brawl...

Okay, preordering those two was a smart move on my part. They're so dang cool looking (and G1ish) that they kinda make the rest suck.

These guys look really awesome & would love to add them to my Bruticus, but I don't know if I can justify spending 100 bucks on two "scout class" sized figures & a bunch of accessories; just bought a house - darned mortgage!

Loving the articulation on these guys. Those action poses are plastic sex!

I'd love a second set but I'll probably wait to see what kind of repaint they get. However, until then, I may wait to open my ROTF Bruticus set and just display these as separate bots.

Best scouts EVER!
Now I'm honestly thinking of grabbing an extra set just to display them like in those pics.

Delicon wrote:Has anyone considered buying these and displaying them alongside Universe Onslaught, rather than joining them to the ROTF Bruticus?

That's probably what I'll do. I've got my Bruticus still MISB.

On a side note, my guess is we'll see a Nexus Prime set real soon now.

Quite extraordinary. I really like them a lot. Too bad they didn't do a Vortex-- just for fun...

Again, I will feel that it is money well spent when I get these in hand.

Those things look than amazing. Very impressive, in deed.

Looks like I'm the last one to comment. The color pix are freakin amazing! Unfortunately, even as I'm writing this they are sold out and even if they weren't, I still couldn't afford them. Wish I could...
