The Energon Pub

i havent heard any buzz about people finding him, but i saw one at a wal mart out here in southern california.... imo i think he'll be another shelf warmer, and if you guys thought the bright blue paint applications looked bad, wait til you see the brown camo paint apps; terrible job, especially the face. hes not much to hunt over, but if any of you guys were waiting for him, letting you know hes beginning to hit stores

I've been wondering if he's any good... The blue stuff is turning me off though..

Wal-Mart in Moore, Ok had a couple. I didn't like the blue either and I already have the original version.

My memory may be failing, and I haven't been keeping up with the sightings lately, but I do think this is the first retail sighting of Desert Brawl, so I front paged it along with another sighting of the new Incinerator figure.

It's all been front paged and posted in a seperate thread here.

It feels funny crediting "Tom Brokaw" for a story...

I saw one yesterday in Dallas. The original leader brawl definitely looks better -- the allspark blue looks garish with the desert scheme, and the clear blue plastic looks goofy. I had the exact opposite reaction with Nightwatch Prime. I had no intention of picking him up, until I saw him in person -- he looks that good. Desert Brawl, on the other hand, looks much worse in person than in pictures.

I just saw one today...

Didn't hold my interest at all.
