I love the head so far, and I enjoy that you've kitbashed Prime and Megs together as well

This is coming along REALLY well, man. I love it. My only issue is that this mold is so small, relatively speaking. But that's a DAMN good Brawl! The additions you've made look awesome.

Thanks, bro--I really enjoy doing those G1-styled heads. Kinda small and hard to work with, but so rewarding when they come out nice.

Thanks, man! I agree with the mold being on the small side (almost went with TFTM deluxe Brawl, but it didn't scream "Brawl the say that the Megatron 2-pack tank did). Glad you like it, man! Looking forward to seeing more on your Bruticus, bro--the mock ups look great. Tell me you've done more on it--I could use some inspiration and a fire under my rear to do more on mine. lol

looks real good, who are you using for onslaught? the 4 limbs you have chosen are near identical to mine (though he won't get started til about 2011 LOL)

I had issues with this guy as brawl aswell, but I have decided not to include the uni and primus parts, so should look ok on the smaller scale gestalt. I had a look at archforce (g2 deluxe megs over there) but I'm sure you already thought of that.

Was the base for the head uni hound?

Thanks, man! I'm planning to use Universe Onslaught (but if that doesn't work or I decide to change my mind, my backup may be either a TFTM voyager Prime or Armada Prime like SMOG is using on his).

I'm planning to only use the Primus arms, BUT this may also change (depending on how it all fits together--I'm trying to use the least amount of parts on this and still have it look like G1 Bruticus to some extent).

The head was a Universe Hound head, modded with styrene strips and sheet styrene. Had an extra Hound which I plan to use to make Brawn--similar to turboedguy's Brawn custom (Hound's head wound up on this Brawl custom and the extra Cyclonus I had, donated his head for the Hound body and Brawn custom, while the Cyclonus body was used to make my Universe Scourge--gotta love parts-swapping and parts-donation like that). lol

Now to figure out what to use the extra tank Megs head on that came off of this.

I need some of that fire myself.

Probably just as well you went with 2 Pack Megs... TFTM Brawl really isn't much bigger. I went with RID Bludgeon, but then... that's not an easy figure to find, and it necessitates bigger Combaticons all around to match.
