    I'm glad I was able to pre-order one! I was worried I would miss it since I was at work...

    Preordered 2.

    One for my collection and one for a custom.

    At $60 - it's cheaper to buy the set than to buy the molds in retail. It's more affordable custom fodder!

    I just went and preordered the Bruticus Set,I mean damn I fully expected to pay over $80 or $100 for the set like the SDCC set,but for $60 there was no way I was passing those up at that price.Thanks BBTS.


    Edit,I really hope I get a set and they don't run out.I will be majorly bummed if that happens.

    Ordered. If for only the reason that finding all five molds on the pegs at retail will be a virtual impossibility.

    Any time I order something from Amazon it arrives looking like the UPS driver used it to sit on during his lunch break. I'm ok with paying BBTS a little extra if it means I can get a mint G2 style box.

    I pre-ordered this as well. BBTS is always awesome with this sort of thing, and I'm excited for some G2 love. At first, I was bothered and didn't want to get it because of the gaudy coloring, but my heart swelled once I thought about how G2 was what brought me back to the Transformers.

    Pre-ordered! For half of the price (incl. shipping to Brazil) this couldn't be missed! Now waiting for mp-10 pre-order (hopefully)!

    I'm surprised at the price. Way to go BBTS. Its kind of funny that this is 60 and they have the singles up for 100+.

    Hey HnH,why not go preorder it yourself,they may still have some left.

    Also to everyone,what are my chances of getting one of the Bruticus sets,I ask because when I preordered a set about an hour and a half ago there were less than 300 left as someone posted.I really want this set since it looks like Walmart is gonna be $75-$80 for the mass release version.

    What do you wanna bet, a G2 FOC Bruticus? I have one coming in 4 months. LOL.

    If Amazon were done for Bruticus, you wouldn't see the $60 price tag from BBTS. Let's be real here.

    I hope this set is still available when I have funds. I don't expect a boxed set at retail until at least next year.. I want bruticus, not his components.

    So is there like a deal or something between BBTS and Amazon that Amazon pulls the listing when BBTS began? Or did BBTS begin preorders because Amazon preorders filled up?

    Received the pre-order e-mail from BBTS this morning, and ordered a G2 colored set right away.
