Hot on the heels of his debut at Botcon, the Leader-Class Brawl figure can now be seen in his packaging alongside some official Hasbro stock photos of the figure.

See the images here.

Why is the head revealed in his tank mode?

Otherwise, breathtaking figure.

So his head sticks up in alt mode? Check out the second picture. They should take care of that.

While he looks cool, the deluxe version actually looks more realistic. I'll stick with that one.

I will definantly get Leader Devastator(I'm too used to calling him that).

Because he's mis-transformed. Whoever transformed him also forgot to flip forward the panels of the front of the tank, the ones that cover the treads...

On the subject of Mis-Transformations, shouldn't the company that MAKES the toys know how to transform them?

I know he's really Brawl, and calling himself Devestator was just a problem with a change when the movie was completed but I just like to call him Devastator.

by **Raymond101** » Tue Jul 03, 2007 5:57 pm

You know, both names fit him pretty well. Devastator for his sheer power and what he does, and Brawl for what he does against the Autobots and his physical strength.

I do wish there were some larger Autobots rather than just Optimus... it seems they are a little outmatched in terms of toy selection.

Same here. They should have made a Voyager version without the lever gimmick that they like to put on Leader Prime and megatron.

If Brawl doesn't play as big of a role as Barricade, Bonecrusher, or Blackout do, then I really can not justify myself buying a leader class of him. I know, I'm such a wet blanket. :-P

I like the mis-transformation while in tank mode. At least I hope it is a mis-transformation.

He doesn't look to me as being more detailed than his deluxe version, sure hope I am wrong.

Wow, that looks like crap. And the head clearly visible in robot form? I hope that's a mistransformation. It also looks like he's taking a crap in that default box pose...

It is a mistransformation, he was properly transformed when displayed at Botcon:

Cool. Im a bit disapointed as they didnt place the cannon on the right arm like they did for the deluxe version. Now my fantasy of making this Megatron cant come true.

Hasbro doesn't take the promotional photographs. They're outsourced. So if the person doing the photography doesn't understand the transformation, it gets shot wrong.

Learned that on the tour.

Since in the game they pit Jazz against Screamer and Blackout alone I'm guessing he can hold his own... To bad I can't get passed that patently unfair fight.

I like it though. They need more big cons. More in scale with the bots.

I took Starscream out first, because he doesn't regenerate health, you have to take Blackout down before he transforms, it can be done but you have to do it quickly.

Now this is right. I mean think about it. He's a freakin tank. Easily as big as Prime. I will have to get him for my collection.

by **gogleman374** » Tue Jul 03, 2007 10:53 pm

Im not going To shell out 40 bucks For a Brawl when I can Just Buy a 10 doller one That dose The same Exact Thing And has The same amount Of Detailing.

by **JiTAE** » Tue Jul 03, 2007 11:27 pm

I like it simply because of the scale. It makes much more sense to have him leader class size cuz he's actually a huge tank in the film. Hopefully they'll have Bonecrusher go in2 Leader Class as well
