    The similarity to Bulkhead only strengthens that theory going around that Rodimus will have a crew that parallels Optimus's (Bulkhead=Brawn, Bumblebee=Hot Shot, Ratchet=Red Alert, Prowl=Beachcomber). He might look dumpy, but I get the feeling that THIS Brawn isn't going to be G1-short, and will probably be big, Bulkhead-size.

    Anyway, I can totally see how Brawn is going to be shorter than Bumblebee.

    Brawn looks really funny. :lol  Probably going to be used as a "shorter than Bumblebee" gag.

    YES! YES! And YES! again!

    Another one of my all time favorite TF characters making his way into Animated - and he looks AAAAAWESOME! Almost exactly how I imagined him to look.

    Cannot wait to hear Burton voice this guy again.

    Awesome design- Can't wait til Corey Burton voices him once more. I noticed something that Corey Burton has reprised all of his major roles as of Season 3

    Very G1 like the rest. It's interesting that he has tank treads for his back wheels.

    Talk about 25th Anniversary. TFA has such has great diverse cast of characters. I love that there's Strika and Blackout, Blackarachnia, etc. Brawn looks good, if his personality is the same as G1 it will fit his model well.

    I really hope he is like his G1 character, he was such a joker and loved the way he was the one who always seemed to take on Soundwave (and win) before Blaster was introduced

    Actualy, most cybertronian cars got some kind of tank tread.

    Maybe in the future, we'll have tank BMWs!

    Totally amazing, I love it. Brawn is my favorite of the mini-cars, and this stylized rendition does him ugly-justice!

    Love the design. A little squat, but a nice homage to the G1 character. Agree that there's a TFA Snarl vibe going on too.

    Transformation does look ridiculously simple though.

    So, is Brawn part of Hot Rod's team, which is rumored to make a short appearance, with most of the group having little to no dialogue? Hoping Corey Burton will get a chance to breathe life into this bot again.

    It was Beachcomber that was rumored to have little to no lines. Not the entire team.


    edit:
    Weird that the line art of Red Alert's vehicle mode that S250 gave us just a little while ago never made it to the front page.

    I hope they keep him small. So he can retain that short/small guy complex that's always a good opportunity for humor.

    Imagine him making a grand entrance and transforming, tossing out a verbal threat then having the camera zoom out and it turns out that he is only up to Starscream's waste or something. Then he proceeds to kick the crap out of everything.

    I can't believe it took this long for someone to say what I was thinking when I first saw the pic. This just screams Gears, the face looks like Brawn but even the bot kinda looks like gears?!?!?!?
