Well I finally have received my order from TF Source after waiting so long on Knight Morpher, anyway I have a question about Encore Bruticus and WST Shockwave.

When I grabbed the box for WST Shockwave I heard rattling and though maybe that's the Bruticus hand open it up to find a small purple piece that was rattling.

Any idea what it is?



After messing with Encore Bruticus I combined him and noticed his right and left leg were not straight with each other though I did noticed the foot on Brawl stuck out a little further is this to help balance him maybe?

No idea what that is... you sure it didn't fall out of your WST Shockwave?

Yeah, Shockwave was still in his plastic shell when I noticed the piece fall out of the box.

So can anyone help me with Bruticus? It just keeps messing with me that his legs are not straight with each other and he seems to always being leaning back, but I'm sure it's part of the mold degeneration though I don't remember anyone mentioning it.

Seems normal, due to the positions of the peg holes and heads/connections on the different figures. Computron was the worst for this, he looked as if he was doing lunges.

Could it be spree/sprew or what ever you call that stuff that gets left behind after the individual plastic pieces are cut our of the mold.

Bruticus is supposed to be like that.

The sprue is the plastic frame that holds pieces together. "Flash" is the junk created by leaky molds.

I noticed earlier this pieces come apart and can fit on Shockwaves arms though he can't transform with them because there being 4 plugs on each arm.

Do they connect to each other while they're connected to his arm during transformation? It almost looks like theybelong on his arms.

They are extra parts of each arm packed in by mistake.

No, they can't connect together because one arm has two holes and the other has two plugs and then on the outside once these pieces are connected they have four plugs, like this on each arm.



That's another thing messing with me, it does look like they belong there.

They are half fore-arms from either arm. They connect together to form the gun barrel. They must have fallen in the box at the assembly/packing point. You don't need them.
