    I sent an email to FP asking about a kit for Bruticus similar to the Superion Add-on. Also asked about the status on the Rodimus Armor. This is the response I just got:

    Thanks for the email. I are working on one for Bruticus, but it's still in
    a very initial progress. We will have the update when it's ready.
    "Protector" seems not ready until 1 st quarter of 2010. Thanks
    for your support. We are glad you enjoy our stuff.

    Well, I guess considering Rodimus was the leader for the 2010 series in Japan, it's kind of fitting.

    Bruticus ain't what I'm after. I crave for Protector Upgrade now & its excruciating having to wait that long for its release. :cry :cry :cry

    Someone suggest to them they make a couple of new heads for the scouts to give them a little more differentiation. That's why I passed on Superion.

    Rather than heads, I just want them to make sure the heights will be the same so the sets can be mixed together. I am of course thinking of making sure they would be compatible to do on Nexus Maximus.

    Why not both? Or a seperate add-on set of two new heads for any of the Energon combiner scouts?

    Protector armor, early 2010, yessssss! Wouldn't mind a two piece scout head set. That would probably give me incentive to buy Bruticus and Superion Maximus.

    Yes on the Bruticus set, I'll have to get 2 and get a 2nd Superion set so Nexus Prime can get some parts

    Woot, well that puts the "should I buy Bruticus" debate to rest. BOUGHT!

    I think the new head idea for the Scouts is a good thing, except for the issue with actually swapping them. If it isn't easy to swap them, then FP would probably avoid doing it. Really, only the CJ kit is the only thing they released that went as far as modding a figure. I know the modders here would argue that head swapping is hardly a mod, but still. I think FP is taking the route of only releasing stuff that Hasbro would perhaps like to do but doesn't for $$ reasons.

    I would buy a Bruticus upgrade kit. And, as soon as I got it I would then demand they release a Nexus upgrade kit too. Cast in clear blue/red :)

    NICE! Good to know a date on Protector. Seeing the sketches at the past TFCon was mindblowingly enough! -ahem- can FP get a Firebolt out of that?! :D
