Like any post-G2 Combiner, the combiner head is integrated into the one that forms the torso, in this case Onslaught. Look at the Power Core Combiners to get a good idea.

Yes, it's right behind/below Onslaughts head. I was trying to put up his guns on his back like stacks, however Bruticus's head is in the way to keep the gun from staying put.

Yup and a lot of people have reviewed the figure on youtube, good place to check out the figures

also off topic: anyone know when these will hit store shelves? I have yet to find a single combaticon in my area -_-

I have found Onslaught, Swindle, and Vortex at the Navy base which is usually 2 weeks ahead of local targets and walmarts here in San Diego....so hopefully soon.

The navy base in Norfolk had all 5 so I grabbed them without a second thought.

Yep, the Bruticus head is built in, just like the disappointment.

Disappointment is not built-in. It's personal, and it is based on your own expectations. I am rarely disappointed with any TF because my expectations are simple: I expect a cool toy, and nothing more.

My statement was in jest really, as the original poster's question has already been answered. However, I know myself and many others were highly disappointed with FOC Bruticus. My expectation is for toy design and technology to advance as time progresses, not go backwards. In my opinion that's just what happened here. FOC Bruticus feels like a PCC juiced up on Synthetic Energon. Again, this is my opinion (though I know it's shared by others) the Energon combiners were better engineered toys, and lets not even get into what's going on in the third-party sector. Again, just my opinions and I'm glad others are enjoying the set.
