From ACToys, voyager sized FoC Onslaught. I don't know who is making this.

If done right this could be really good. I'll be passing though because my Combaticons are all red and blue now

That is what Onslaught should have looked like from the start.. Why can a third party company make such an accurate rendition and we get what we got from Hasbro?

Darn...I might just have to get this. =P~

If they are gonna do one, why not just redo the entire set? If they do, i will bite...

Nice! If they can retool this for an Impactor..... ZOMGGG I will get that!

Hasbro has to put up with shareholders, a board of directors, safety concerns, and most worrisome brick and mortar stores.

Yes!!! This Onslaught is a true threat.

I hope they do one for every version of this set. I have them all so I'll need one for each, so that's at least 5 versions/decos so far.

If it's put out in the G2 colourscheme, as that's the only set I own, I'll buy it in a heartbeat.

G2 color scheme, and I will personally and financially support this company

Give me one in Takara colors and G2 colors and I'm all in. Forget about the fruit colored retail version cause that color scheme sucked.

Hehe, I agree for the most part except something about retail Votex's color scheme is really awesome to me. So much so that I bought 2 of him. 1 for combined mode and 1 to keep separate in bot mode.

So that's why I'm short an arm on my Bruticus.

I'll take this in whatever color it comes in, except maybe G2. Aside from not opening my G2 box, I think I can use any other color with my Brute. Maybe something close to G1 colors or Game accurate...

I'd like to see some more pictures of this for size comparisons of Bruticus and how they are connecting the arms. It also looks like there is some parts-forming going on with Blast-Off :-?

I am 100% ok with parts-forming if this gives me a workable Bruticus.

I sold my FP Colossus a month or so back due to the irreconcilable scale differences between Herc, Feral Rex, and Intimidator, so I'm down a Brute. :oops:

Bring on the comparison pics!

I'm okay with Blast-Off parts-forming as well seeing as his arm mode is kinda weak.

Colossus is too small, fun enough to keep, but he will be separate from my classics set. Hopefully this guy will come with feet that'll bring Bruticus close to Hercs height.

Parts-forming... where? I just dont see it? :-?

This looks like a chunky bad boy but what if it turns out to be produced by a new unknown company?
Lets watch as almost everyone changes their mind about buying this!

I am open to give new companies a chance and keen to see what happens with this cuddly fella!

The top of Bruticus's shoulder is his hips and shuttle nose. His legs are under the rockets that form the forearm (his knees are visible) and those rockets would normally be connected to Blast-Offs shoulders.

Ah!
It would be amazing if this mystery company moves forward with the rest of the gestalt!
