I'm worried about how the targetmasters interact with the AB mold.

He didn't say Bludgeon specifically needs to be the Brawl mold, he just said "a tank". That doesn't necessarily mean that he wants Bludgeon from the Brawl mold, and sure the Brawl mold is the only CW tank mold, but there's another question that we should be asking: Why include Bludgeon in this at all? He never worked with these other guys. The Mayhem Attack Squad had a very revolving door-type roster with members coming and going with each iteration. Bludgeon was never in the same group as these other four when he was part of the group, and when the other four were part of the group they worked with someone else. Someone who I wish we had gotten instead of Bludgeon: Thunderwing. I would have vastly preferred a Thunderwing retooled from the CW Cyclonus mold with the Cyclonus head retooled into Thunderwing's inner robot mode head and the Galvatronus head retooled into Thunderwing's outer Pretender shell head, which Thunder Mayhem is gonna have.Hellscream9999 wrote:Delta Magnus wrote:The limb-bots look awesome.

Why? Brawl's mold is riddled with issue's (I haven't seen a good review of him yet, nor any compliments 'round here) I'd rather have this really cool bludgeon, than a crappy one made out of brawl (who just so happens to also have inappropriate proportions for bludgeon too)

I've got Brawl in hand already and I don't understand the fuss. Maybe I won QC roulette, but his torso audibly snaps into place. Sure, it looks off, but it holds together fine. It's way better the the 2-pts of articulation original. Bot mode has ankle tilts, great head sculpt, alt mode has double-barrel cannon, looks superb, leg mode is spot on. The weaknesses are short arms, tiny waist, and the turret doesn't rotate. The hollowness on the legs is hidden by the dark colors. I honestly don't mind because I understand that adding an extra panel on each leg to cover up the transformation would be an easy point of breakage and add more pieces to figure.
Fit for Bludgeon is a completely different story because I'd prefer a larger bur leaner bot and, you know, swords.
