Looks like a custom for now and waiting for a 3rd party to pick it up. It can be disassembled and used by the bots.

Seems a bit too big. Needs to be refined (imho).

FPJ

The kibble looks great in vehicle mode and really adds a lot to the individual alt modes.

However, in gestalt mode those wings are not only a hindrance, they're also an eyesore. It looks like it's easily remedied if you just keep the wings off the shield when you apply the shield to the chest.

I like the look, but I think I'll pass. Ultimately, I'm holding out for the possibility that FP will revisit this set and make a Brawl, Vortex, and Onslaught to work with Swindle and Blastoff.

The applications for vehicle and robot modes are neat, but the combined mode? Just...WHY?
Why not make a FOC Bruticus add-on kit instead? Dude needs it bad.

This needs to be a hell of a lot smaller to work .

All these shield parts and extra weapons yet they never bother to provide a proper tank barrel for Brawl [-(

Sweet! A chest shield that makes it impossible to rotate the arms. :lol:

A thousand times, YES!

I feel that way too! it would be so easy too!, just fit a long barrel inside the inner edge of his energon chip port! and maybe have like a fold down 5mm peg inside for robot mode cannon or something.

An excellent point. I mean, how hard could it be?

Like most of you are saying, I think this add-on makes a nice addition to the individual vehicle and robot modes, but it's an unnecessary eyesore to Colossus. I do like the knife storage on the right hand side of the chest shield. That's proper tactical, like.
