Vortex's colors are totally off, he's supposed to be grey!

 

^ holy fuck, i hate Vortex's colour scheme so much.  

 

^Well, just like G1 eh?  

 

Bruticus is Scramble City? He looks and sounds even more awesome than before!  

Also, why is Starscream wearing a crown in that one screenshot? Does that pertain to the story?

 

It's funny that Lenny moved into Transformers design, cool knowing we went to school and played football together.

 

Are they selling Bruticus separately, or in one whole pack?

 

Separately. His component parts are Wave 2.

 

Those figures look gorgeous. Blast off is pure win

 

Does the interview explain why Bruticus looks like shit?

 

It's really not much of an interview. Most of the article seems to be the author providing a geek's eye account of who the Combaticons are in the G1 canon. Unless I'm missing something, there's almost nothing interesting being said.

Here's a real interview

It's cool to learn he will be Scramble-City style, with any limb bot working in any limb capacity. I still wish he had add on feet and fists, for aesthetic's sake. But a "perfect" TFing scramble-city gestalt is a great engineering feat.

 

Does that really mean Scramble City-style limbs? Because if so...holy hell, consider my excitement easily doubled for this guy.

 

Oh awesome , I like the sound I that  

 

I haven't collected individual combiner limbs since RiD Rail Racer. Kind of nostalgic. Takes me back.

 

People have spotted what look like they might be extra fists on Brawl and Swindle in ASMs pics so the Scramble Cityness might be true.

With all the new Toy Fair pics I think Brawl, Swindle, Onslaught, and Vortex all look really good as Bruticus. It's only Blast Offs arm that looks really off. And in a good number of pictures I think it looks noticeably longer than Vortex's. Which makes me think it's likely to be miss transformed.

-ZacWilliam, definately looking forward to it.

 

An American lead designer might explain the more than underwhelming execution of what still is a genius idea (g1 inspired combiners and characters).
Most figures of the Fall of Cybertron line look like crap and transform into a pile of uninspired futuristic pile of randomly generated "something" with wheels.

 

One of the recently posted interviews (either Kotaku but I think Game Informer) 100% confirmed that each limb is interchangeable. You could have a Bruticus with 4 Brawls or any other combination.

 

I smell kickass entertainment from this guy!  

 

That's cool how he originally wanted Predaking size. I like the head sculpt, and the scramble city style combination. I want to see how articulated the big guy will be.
