    I have a G2 Bruticus and a RiD Ruination.

    The plastic and build QA of my RiD Ruination does not appear to be as good as that of the G2 one. My RiD Ruination has several uneven (even a little sharpish) edges and small plastic "tags" from where the plastic moulding was broken/cut off unevenly. Don't get me wrong, he's not KO crap quality, but he just doesn't seem as smooth as G2 at all.

    G1 & Urban-nation is my favorite. I would go with either of these.

    I was having so much fun with the individual bots I forgot to combine them (I recently acquired RiD version.) :redface2: 
    I love their gattai scene in Car Robot/RiD.

    I have CR Valdigus and I ahve to say that if you like show-accurate toys try to look for him.

    I used to have 2 sets of the giant G2 Bruticus KO. Poor plastic quality but I was able to sell them for good money in the past. He's very impressive anyway.

    I have the Urban Camo version, and I'm quite happy with him.
    Isn't about time for this mold to be trotted out again? It was very busy for awhile there, you couldn't go six months it seemed without a new version.
    Or perhaps the mold has finally degraded too much?

    I really like this mold, no matter the color scheme. One of the best G1 combiner robots/teams.

    You can squeeze it (it's peg actually) between the two pegs on Brawl's dual cannon he uses in tank mode. Acts like a small blast shield in that case.

    Don't mention it. Just remember and return the favor in due time.
