OMG, these just look amazing!! I love Onslaughts weapons too. These guys are gonna pwn them bots so badly!! It's gonna be a massacre!!

Wow.

That's amazing.

Simply stunning. I love how much bulkier he is compared to Superion.

By the way, thanks for the news Prime Evil!

I'm with you Counterpunch....Just amazing and what a piece of art this is.....I'm sooo glad i pre-order this. Too bad this upgrade kit will shame most of my collection. Take notes Hasbro, you could learn a thing or two.

That is AMAZING!!

If you don't like this, then you are a bad person.

Oh crap that looks good. well worth the cost for them.

If you don't like this, then go collect Barbies!!

I said it at the beginning of the year, and I will say it again. TOY OF THE YEAR!!

Hot diggity damn!!!

I am going to need a taller shelf, just to put Bruticus on!! I was starting to second guess getting these two, but that's all out the window now!!

Can't wait to ship that POL, as it will have Defender in with it!

Damn skippy

Now Vortex looks like a nice little Whirl homage with all the added weapons, at least that was my initial thought.

Bruticus looks a thousand times better. I really cannot wait to use this to create a true CLASSICS Bruticus.

No less awesome a figure though.

I think I'm responsible for the death of a few kittens just for seeing that......

HolyMotherOfPrimus this is the best combiner of all time.

Looks like some extra modifications are needed. The Transformation for Vortex is impossible. Either they added something there for the connection, or we'll have to remove the pin that hinges the panel that covers the actual connector piece in Vortex.

Otherwise there's no way to transform Vortex like that, and still be able to plug him in.

Still the set looks very cool. Fittingly it ends up larger than Superion. And gives the combiner some much needed elbow articulation.

I still need to pay off my car, otherwise, I'd pre-odering him now, sadly I'll have to wait a few weeks.

Hey, don't fret if you can't get your hands on these.

PCC "Bruticus" is nifty enough, but compared to "FP+ Universe Bruticus" he looks like crap.

Oh. My. God.

That is awesome! So very very awesome!

Funny CP... very Funny.

These are friggin beautiful! A jewel to anyone's collection. They're 2 original figures are everything I'd want them to be! Which is why it's gonna be so hard not to buy these

I like my TF collection to make sense when it comes to scale. That's why classics Grimlock and Starscream had to come off the shelf in favor of their far more realistic Masterpiece couterparts. The crossfire set would be SO nice to have but I just can't live with scout class tanks and hummers looking up to Bumblebee. Sure hope FansProjects continues with original figures like Springer. I congratulate people who are less picky than me on their purchase!

Holy shotguns, Batman! These guys are armed to the teeth! I...think poor little Superion is about to get owned. It's amazing how much taller and impressive Bruticus is now. Well worth the price, I say, and this also means they should be out VERY soon.

Man, am I glad I jumped on the preorder.

From the looks of it, they've added a whole new shoulder joint that simply pegs on the sides of the helicopter, the pegs where the feet go in alt mode. There should be no modifications required.

Edit: It would appear there is one for each shoulder, and they become the rocket launchers attached to Vortex in both modes. Ingenious!

They've even done a great job upgrading the existing robots to look equally as impressive next to the new guys. Each has not only 1, but 2 or even multiple weapons. This set is truly amazing.

Pretty sweet hunh? I know you thought you wanted more Classics styled toys, but there's people who get paid somewhere who know what you people really like.

And it's this: Power Core Combiners.

Oh yea baby. PCC does it every way you want.

I don't have sufficient expletives to describe how awesome this figure looks, even borrowing from Farscape and BSG!!!!

I can't wait to get this set.
