The Energon Pub

one day i got rotf brawn which i thought looked cool with the pistols but the panels on the back were so anoying plus the legs sucked. and the pistols on mine had air bubbles. so i returned him and bought mindwipe off of amazon.com

did any one else dislike brawn (hate's a strong word)

Actually, I quite like ROTF Brawn, myself. I just don't call him Brawn.

Brawn looks like someone threw a stick of dynamite in a truck, and strapped the shrapnel to the back of a robot. The RTS repaint was a total cop-out IMO, seriously? They couldn't have come up with a new mold for him? Its quite sad really.

Same here.

Mine is just a generic bot standing behind Hound.
I have him with movie Armorhide and Landmine.
They look like a military team.

The official Brawn of my collection is HftD Firetrap.

I....actually like that figure (Brawn). his head sculpt and shiny paint are my favorite parts. the plastic quality is also really nice on mine

Pretty much all of the above!

I like ROTF brawn alot Imo he has a nice looking alt mode his robot mode is small and stocky similar to his G1 roots,
2 pistols + a shoulder gun is very nice as most movieverse don't have any, As for the kibble/shell that does'nt bother me and he's a new mould and not a repaint as for the RTS out/fall back he is a BIG miss for me his (white/cream colour and the rub sign) movieverse should NOT be in that line what so ever!!.

I do like the two, Brawn and RTS Fallback, however Fallback should have been used as a movie line. The RTS is a little off on using that mold I'd agree.

I only got one for the head to use for Ironfist. Turned out to be too big.

The thing I like best about Fallback is I didn't get him. I think ROTF Brawn is highly overrated, but I don't think he's terrible. He just not particularly good. Although for a Classics Brawn I'd take that back, he is terrible for that purpose.

i think i'll buy his repaint looks better with a desert sand color

since we are talking about repaints i have the movie 1 landmine, but should i get the rotf armorhide to go ith him (sorry about going off topic)

to me the rts one should have a new head sculpt and new weapons.

same here I call him Rollbar.I also like Fallback who I call Outback(as is intended)

As others have stated, I like the toy, but I don't consider it to be Brawn. I'm glad to have the original release, but I won't waste my cash on the Fallback repaint.

Thats up to you. It's kind of nice to have the two and have a mini squad, but up to you overall. I do have both and plans to take some pics of the two.
