Of course I don't collect this scale and have had my fill of Brutici.

He is a giant's crotch unfortunately, and he suffers for the sake of the greater good, the combined form. Granted a 3P would likely do better, but don't kid yourself into thinking that it can be executed the way you see it in your dreams. Look at Ares, people disliked that Razorclaw was too big even though it was necessary for him to be the torso. And Feral Rex, I feel suffered for the opposite reason. I really feel there's no way to truly win.
Thus we end up with partsforming. Don't you think it's more forgivable to parts form (giving us perfect vehicle modes perfect robot modes and perfect combined forms) than to TRY and integrate everything (while compromising at least 1 of the 3 forms)?

shajaki wrote:Alright. So I goofed. The Brawl and Swindle that I posted here were in fact NOT Zeta Toys, they are from Unique toys which now has its own thread.
Honestly, my enthusiasm has lessened. It was the former that I was drooling over the most, what with their slavish representation of the G1 toon. So now I'm torn...
