    Call me crazy, but is that 50 supposed to represent a price? An if so, what's it equal in American dollars?

    Same here (passed on first set due to color-matching issues with my Energon version) but I have high hopes:

    The Energon release and the newest release of Bruticus both have lots of silver, as opposed to the more "beige" color of the ROTF release. If they intend to match the new release, they need to make the hands/feet silver, not beige. And that should work for both the latest and very first release of the mold.

    Yes the energy version was really bad in colors, the new one looks much better for sure. I hope the reissue rotf bruticus is going to have tne right colors to match the first release version.

    So it should be a while before we see any preorders for this, right? I assume FP needs to get the Bruticus set in hand first so they can get get the colors to match before they start manufacturing.

    ...

    I literally just bought Energon Bruticus Maximus last week for a great price.

    No. No, that's not my butt twitching. That's my wallet dancing.
