I was looking at the first couple of images and thinking "WOW!!!", then I noticed the gestalt arms and couldn't believe someone could make such a big combiner and screw them up so badlymegatronus wrote:Given the constant complaints about arm gaps in smaller figures like FP's Bruticus & Intimidator, I'm surprised a combiner of this size would suffer from this problem, and that it has not yet been engineered away.
Also, he's freaking massive!
These are not MP scale, the Autobot cars we always smaller than the average Decepticon, not the same size.Rated X wrote:While the almost MP scale dissappoints me, I buy anything Combaticons. I would buy an extra cofee table just for this guy. This is the MP of all MP's. But since TFC, Toyworld and MMC are all a bunch of copycats anyway, I would love to see some Bruticus's from them a bit smaller scale so I can choose one. And for the record this design blows FP Bruticus out the water and I have two of them.

It's MP scale to me. Plus I have a personal connection to the Combaticons since my childhood.
On the 3rd party companies, yeah I called them copycats. It seems that while theyre still putting out awesome stuff for the fans, theyre constant competing with each each other is annoying more fans than they think. Most of us collect for the characters, not the brand. Ive never heard someone say "Im a Fansproject guy" screw Toyworlld and MMC. It's not like saying "Im a Chevy guy, screw Ford".

If his scale is right then I'm definitely getting that Starscreamdaimchoc wrote:From NECIO

No one's bashing the Combaticon collection. That's straight up impressive.![]()
This thing just... isn't MP scale. MP Combaticons would be the same ~9-10" that Starscream, Soundwave, etc. are. These happen to be voyager-sized. Quake Wave, on the other hand, is properly sized to be MP scale.
The copycat thing is true insofar as all 3rd Party groups are technically infringing on HasTak IP. But you can't say that some 3rd Parties are copycats, and not others. Whoever is making this Bruticus logically must also be a copycat.
And for the record, after Hexatron, I would definitely say I'm an MMC guy. More so than any other 3rd Party. Like any allegiance, that might change, but MMC set a very high bar. Not that I would collect everything they put out (I have no interest in their Hearts of Steel figures, for example), but I have a great deal of respect for them right now, and eagerly await Feral Rex.

Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.

Nope, they would need show accurate alt modes as well. That alone guarantees that these couldn't fit with the MP figuresDead Metal wrote:What's kinda annoying is, that this almost fits into the MP line, almost. The bots would all need to be about an inch and a half taller and it would fit.

It has not been stated so far, but the overall size and design look like TFC to me.
But that is just a guess on my part.
mooncake623 wrote:Wonder why people here aren't complaining about the elbows as much. They're of the same design as the FP Menasor and the FP Bruticus upgrade set (Which people thought was amazing and really cool at the time the Bruticus set was out). I personally have no problems with those elbow design on the FP figures. but on this.... it looks a little weird mainly because of how big it is.
JRFitzpatrick7 wrote:The Masterpiece Line is completely out of scale with itself. IMO. We started with Prime and Megatron towering over the Seekers, alt mode scale be damned. Then we got the Absurdly disappointing Grimlock that scaled well with nothing. MP got revamped and to be fair, I have only been able to pick up Soundwave thus far(Don't even try to tell me about his scale issues in alt mode lol) But as of right now and again, this is without handling any of the new stuff, they seem to be all over the place.
JRFitzpatrick7 wrote:While I understand there was a mission statement with the MP line to make the most accurate representation of the character for the collector, I feel that the figure in hand is completely upto the owner of that figure to decide where that toy fits in their collection.Hell I know a few people who had MP Grimlock in their classics display for a while. Looking at the mock-up shot with Uranos and Hercules I feel like the individual bots line up pretty well with the MPs shown as well as Hegemon and that starscream from igear which is lookking better everytime i see it for some reason.
JRFitzpatrick7 wrote:One more thing regarding the MP scale discussion, I think a big part of it is subjective. It is entirely up to the collector how they choose to use the figures to represent the characters. Is your display Comic scale? Cartoon Scale? G1 toy scale? Real life alt mode and proportionate bot mode scale @_@ ?It's very possible that we each have our own scale system and ideal height for each character.

Peaugh mentioned WB01 being just the start of a lineup of fully realized combiners from this new 3P company.
