IMO Leader Brawl is my favorite of the movie toys, although I have not yet found the concept bumblebee yet. It is a solid figure with a fair transformation (not too complex, not too easy). I like it.

It's based on what appeals to you. Night watch Prime is just a fantasy repaint, while brawl was actually in the movie.

I have Regular Prime and Brawl and they are both great, so i Would go with Brawl, and by the time NW comes out you'll have enough for him Brawl out now, and NW will be out later.

Neither. Brawl didn't play a large enough role in the movie to justify buying a $40 version of him. The Deluxe is actually really good if you don't fudge with his shoulders too much. I don't know why folks whine about his shoulders when most of us aren't going to be playing rough with him anyway.

Nightwatch Prime is not really an Ultra Magnus repaint. Not the right colors or decor. In other words, not nearly enough white on him, and he is plain looking compared to the normal Leader Prime.

Get Leader Prime, the normal one. Save your money for more interesting repaints like the G1 colors Jazz, T-Cracker, and Prime Voyagers.

Just my opinion, and I'm in the minority on my point of view. The real bottom line is what do YOU really want? What do YOU really like. If you don't buy it because some one said so, you may regret it. So search your own feelings too my fellow TF friend. :)

I agree with Sportimus - As much as Leader Brawl is an awesome action figure, if you really want to nitpick with the movie, the moment Brawl transformed and was attacked by the Autobots and humans, he had lost half of all the weapons he had on his toy! I dunno - I love heavily armed robots but Brawl simply did not deserve as much merit as Blackout - not to mention that he gives me the impression of a big lumbering oaf with a lot of guns instead of a menacing, sinister behemoth that fills the sky with fire, like BLACKOUT (and if you pay attention, Blackout seemed actually skilled with both long range weapons AND close range weapons, whereas Brawl just fired wildly around everywhere).

Heck, I chose Leader Megatron over Leader Brawl - I'm not saying I won't get Leader Brawl, but I think Megs is justified because he truly is the most powerful Cybertronian in the movie universe, as opposed to Brawl who amounted little more than a distraction so that Megatron could pursue Sam.

That, and I'm disappointed he doesn't at least have more than two firing projectiles. I'm a sucker for those things on 'warrior' Transformers. Strangely I'm happy for Leader Megs not to have any actual projectiles.
