Well, remember this is largely based on my headcanon. Here is Bruticus from the Marvel Comics:-Kanrabat- wrote:gothsaurus wrote:Wow Rodimus. I had all my focus on toy and animation versions, I never even thought about the comics. I'd love to see photos of what you've done to model after the comics if you have pics handy. Cheers!
Me too. And comparisons with the comics originals. I never read any TF comics appart the first two issues of War Within. So I know nothing but I'm still curious.

So, was this Bruticus worth the EXTRA 60/70$CAN I had to pay just to be sure to get him? Well, unfortunately, no. Definitely not. If it weren't for that pandemic bullcrap, I could have went the normal EMS route, avoid the ultra expensive Mandarake DHL service, and save the custom fees because by normal postage, Mandarake is completely invisible to customs. Not so with DHL. Still, the guy came in barely FOUR DAYS since ordering, instead of being lock in some limbo like my other two Mandarake orders. So it's at least that.

Any reason you didnt get the Hasbro release? By the end of CW, Toysrus had these pretty good discounts so I got that veraion if the combaticons and then got shuttle blastoff on amazon.ca. I much preffer that deco since Takara went for an odd colour layout. Plys the attention to detail on the toy deco homage from Hasbro was pretty cool, especially on Vortex. With the inclusuon of their own shuttle blastoff, I'd say the Hasbro Bruticus is better than Takara's.

o.supreme wrote:It depends on what your likes/dislikes are. I by far prefer UW Bruticus for his animated series color scheme. Hasbro's Shuttle Blast Off came late, and was just a slight repaint, not enough to call it a whole new character worth purchasing. UW Bruticus IS the Bruticus of my Combiner collection. CW Blastoff and Vortex however are different enough to be different characters, so they are the Arms for my Grand Scourge combiner.

So, not White Convoy Grand Prime, then.o.supreme wrote:Sabrblade wrote:On a different note, I wonder how many people are gonna try making White Convoy Grand Prime now that he exists as a canon combiner configuration for Battle Core Optimus.
Actually I have both as different characters. I have the standard UW05, and the Battle Core version (As *Ultra Magnus*) with Alpha Bravo, Smokescreen, and 2 more members TBD. Optimus Maximus

No, the Prowl, Streetwise, Groove, and Aerialbot HFGs are all the Takara versions.gothsaurus wrote:So the roster would be these guys? Since Rook was a USA exclusive (right?) and the Takara version was Roller (in silver), seems like you would HAVE to build this out of Hasbro figures.
Prime (white)
Prowl
Streetwise
Groove
Rook

Dang it, now I want a BCOP. I have all the limbs already. Should have picked him up when I saw him at Target that one single time. I got Silverbolt instead.Sabrblade wrote:Pages 3 and 4.gothsaurus wrote:Where is White Convoy Grand Prime referenced? Anyone have a link or photo handy?

Me too. I have BC Optimus and Grand Scourge set aside as my two limb-less torsos so they can fight each other, Prime to Prime.D-Maximal_Primal wrote:and now Battle Core Prime is the lone combiner torso without any limbs. and I like it that way, I love his regular Prime head

gothsaurus wrote:I'm wondering what to put with Grand Scourge, as mine is also currently not combined. Hmmmm.
My plan was to let him occasionally borrow Menasor's limbs. Though, G2 Menasor's limbs also better resemble the color schemes of Grand Scourge's original drones in Super Link.gothsaurus wrote:I'm wondering what to put with Grand Scourge, as mine is also currently not combined. Hmmmm.
