    Pardon my ignorance, but where was this confirmed?

    ^Yeah, I don't see why they wouldn't. Doesn't make sense...

    Do the combiner parts really need to be confirmed? Releasing this without combiner parts would be incredibly pointless and would drive away a lot of customers.

    It wasn't, just speculation.

    I wouldn't be surprised if they were though, the FPC site being down seems to point at that.

    Like with Warcry and Flameblast? That was the main reason I didn't get those figs.

    cannot wait. Already searching for a brute max. Just can't wrap my head around paying $130 for the Asian exclusive.

    Well in that case it made sense because they were homages to characters that weren't combiner limbs. But with combiner characters being released (presumably) because of that Asian reissue, they kinda have to come with combiner parts.

    lol, first off, just a rumor right now so dont go counting chickens. but I think a point that is missing here is that the rumor states its to go with the new Asia exclusive bruticus maximus....... which would indicate that it would have combiner parts... since its meant to combine with a combiner.

    If they do a re-release the only way I'd get them is from FPC, because if the online sites get them, you and I both know the price wont be 50$ a piece but a 100$ or more each... the only chance of 50$ is if FPC sells them directly.

    Honestly energon Barricade doesn't look too bad, I have him set up with my own FP Bruticus and I actually kinda like his colors with the set, been thinking about painting the rest of the set to make it look kinda regal/royal-ly Think he'd pop out a lot more like that.

    With the news of a redeco release of FP Bruticus, I'm seriously entertaining the thought of getting the yellow redeco release of MT Giant for playability outside of combined mode. (Wonder if FP will do a redeco of the not-Stunticons of some sort too.) Lord help my wallet. XD

    Specifically, I'm using the ones in the ROTF set I DIDN'T use in the 'preferred' configuration + the re-issue+ Energon Barricade. Should look...colorful...

    Same here, it's honestly not that bad and I've grown to like the combination more than the normal ones.

    Hell if I had the money I'd get twenty decks, this Bruticus is awesome as all get out and I dream on a near daily basis about having my own itty bitty Bruticus legion. It would be so awesome~

    Then why not post it publicly?

    Looking forward to seeing the rest of the set, just hope that the preorders aren't for a bit .:redface2:
