    G2 color scheme fits the mold best, so I'm hoping I'll be able to get my hands on one :D

    Based on the title, literally *Want* instead of are you actually getting, i'm kind of suprised to see the G2 version edging out the SDCC one.

    There's something slightly random about the blocking on the SDCC one, imo. They were quite slavishly G1 until they got to Vortex.

    G2 for now. Waiting to see if United throws anything interesting our way.

    G2.

    Retail manages to be more garish than the G2 version, but without the nostalgia behind it.

    SDCC looks good, but G2 looks great.

    Wreckers: Well, I admit I like the idea, but Bruticus is a figure I've got a big connection to. I had a G1 Bruticus and half of a G2 one, so I definitely prefer him.

    The Price is a huge factor for but I also agree with your other points.

    SDCC just turned out to be TEH drabbiness, while teh camo seems to unify the G2 brightness. Plus the ice blue and grey-blue of teh arms is awesome. Only thing I'm not a fan of is yellow Onslaught.

    Wreckers are cool, but ruination isn't Bruticus.

    I preordered the G2 version but I'm hoping to get my hands on the SDCC, even though it looks a bit bland to me. I'm really digging the look of Blast Off's single release... so maybe I'll pick that up as well!

    If I can get it, I think my preference is G2, but I don't mind the retail version so much either.

    Wrecker Version, though if I had my way (and the funds) I'd own all four sets.

    With some mix/match for the Retail and SDCC versions; plug in Onslaught and Brawl to the SDCC from retail, and possibly Swindle from retail. Stick the duller ones on the Energon Bruticus.

    G2 and Ruination would stay the same.

    SDCC and Wrecker are a tie for me.
    SDCC because it's accurate to the game, and Wrecker because it's FREAKIN' AWESOME!

    G2 first, then the Wreckers, one at a time. (starting with Impactor, then Whirl, then Twin Twist and Top Spin, then Roadbuster) I may get retail Swindle by himself.

    G2, no contest. Great box, best price, Blastoff and Vortex are GORGEOUS, and I've a soft spot for the deco in general, as I was never able to complete my G2 Bruticus as a kid.

    Retail is too garish and uncohesive.
    SDCC is too dull colored, plus I'm not a fan of three limbs being tan. (Only Swindle pulls it off IMO).
    The wreckers, cool idea in concept, but fall flat on their face in practice. I'll pick up Impactor to paint him gold as Xaaron though.

    SDCC for game accuracy.
    Will want all of them though.
    - The energon/ retail is closest to G1 with yellow swindle, blue onslaught, green brawl. Just need a brown/olive green blastoff and a gray vortex
    - G2 colors are fun
    - wreckers they're just out of control :)  and also for rotorstorm's sake

    Whichever is cheapest. If I can find the Retail versions on sale, I will cancel my G2 order, otherwise that one is the one for me

    All of the above. I want to get all four. I like the looks of them all and can't decide on one I like most. They all have their perks. Plus I'm hoping a third party company will release a set to enhance this set as FansProject did with Superion and Bruticus of the Energon line.

    None of the above. I really think the swindle and Onslaught molds aren't very good and combiner mode sucks honestly. The arms are too long, the torso is too small. This is an overall fail to me. I might get Brawn, Vortex, or Blastoff individually at retail but only of I cann't think of better things to spend my money on.
