Still waiting on my preorder...

 

i need to buy this guy

 

The black KO Bruticus set is G2 by default and there is a head/guns set as well.

 

This set looks great. I still haven't gotten around to any version of this team; I was going to wait and see what we got and who was the best price, but then I hit some difficult times and seemed to have missed some of the cheap windows.

 

Oh well.

Too bad those are still using the V2 molds and not the V4. The V4 molds are the ones PE specifically created for G2 Superion and Menasor and have yet to be KO'd or used for anything else.

 

here you go ...  

Transformers Takaratomy Mall Exclusive United Warriors UW-EX Baldigus. Available Now!

I dare you...  

 

The V2 molds are the Prime feet, the two G2 sets would be V3 and Bruticus\Computron feet are the V4. The 2 G2 sets got different hands and feet due to feedback, but if they did do a G2 Bruticus set it would have been the same feet they used for G1 Bruticus and those are the feet currently being KO'ed.

 

Finally gave in and ordered one today. Don't need luck when he's not in high demand  

 

I thought I was sure before... but now I can't decide if I want to replace the Deluxe Black Convoy with the Voyager one.

 

I think the voyager one has skinny shoulders in comparison.
Really depends on how much you prefer the vehicle mode.

The deluxe is a very good looking Scourge and scale wise works great with Ruination.

 

If you rewatch the series, you'll see the Voyager is much closer in scale than the Deluxe. Any screenshot will show this.

 

Standing next to a gestalt doesn't the gestalt need to look the bigger the better?

 

That's wrong and it's already been proven with actual screenshots in this thread. Scourge's head comes to Mega Octane's chest, making the deluxe the correct scale.

 

Personally I think the voyager looks more like scourge overall. Both are good toys, but the deluxe needs the maketoys upgrade to have the right arms and legs and head

 

Ruination in RiD isn't as big as combiners in Sunbow G1. Again, look at the episodes.

 

I think my TFSS Deluxe Scourge looks just right with Baldigus.  

 

I think the new Scourge matches better in style, but the older one better in scale. You can't go wrong either way.

 

Hoping the Perfect Effect hands/feet get KO'd into Baldigus gold.

Not really a fan of the Computron hands/feet... but they do make decent oversized rocket boosters  

 

I don't mind the stock hands/feet, but I would absolutely grab a set of gold PE KOs (also, while on the subject, some translucent red ones like TFSS SG Starscream has). And a set of gold PE Brute guns. Or maybe a DW kit for him. Damn, I'm clearly not learning spending impulse controls . . .
