FOC Bruticus impressions.
Posted: Tue Jul 17, 2012 8:36 amokay so I want to know how the rest of you who have this guy feel. here are some of my thoughts.
1. the individual bots are pretty nice, blastoff and brawl being my favorites.
2. though all of these cons are a little light I really love their robot and vehicle modes(with the exception of onslaught, to much was compromised to make him into a deluxe team leader, he needs to be a voyager).
3. each of the bots have a pretty good weapon/s as well.
4. now that I have played with bruticus a bit I no longer feel his range of motion is that great, especially in his arms. they just kinda bend in a funny place and are to long, which is exacerbated if you keep blastoff and vortex as the arms IMO. oh and if brawl is used as a leg it has some stability problems, right now I prefer swindle and blastoff as his legs, but that doesn't solve the vortex arm issue. I'm afraid I'm just going to have to buy another brawl for an arm, I like how he looks as one so that will work.
5. while the weapons combining to form a big gun is a nice idea, it's just that TO big, it drags the ground if his arm is down. I just plan on placing them on his body.
so that's how I feel on brutty, mow its time for you to share.
ps. I didn't put this in the review section because I felt it's more of a discussion jump off on the toys than a reviw, but if ya need to move it I understand.
