    I still can't believe it, Isetan actually called me back when their new TF stock arrived, and reserved for me one Leader Class Brawl... I'm gonna buy my TFs from them from now onwards.

    TCracker has already covered most of what I wanted to say about him, but I'll throw in my two cents.

    Brawl is quite a pain to transform at first (as can be seen above), but it becomes immediately intuitive after that. As with most of the movie toys, it's simply amazing how everything packs and fits together.


    [​IMG]
    Tank mode looks a whole lot better than I thought it would. I can only wonder how kick-ass the Desert one will be.


    [​IMG]
    It's as large as Movie Prime's alt mode.


    [​IMG]
    Though slightly shorter, Brawl looks substantially more massive than Prime (just look at all that hardware!). Don't be fooled by the pictures, Brawl is one figure that looks A LOT better in person.


    [​IMG]
    I originally wanted the Desert version at first, but this theme struck me, and I suddenly had to get the green one.
    Behold: The Lean Mean Green Fighting Machines! (Well okay, Brawl is not that lean...)


    [​IMG]
    Brawl is very very posable. Though he has a tendency to do splits, and is rather back heavy.


    [​IMG]
    My favourite pose. :lol 


    [​IMG]
    Someone is gonna do it sooner or later, may as well be me. :p

    Love Brawls look of "The Hell?".
    Amazing what poses can do.

    Also, Im curious, what bit cut you? Im guessing moving the barrel for robot mode?

    I'm not certain, since I only noticed the cut after I finished transforming him. But yeah, most likely it was from moving his main cannon.

    I admit it, I hated the guts of leader Brawl when the first pics surfaced, but after seeing some "talented" pics of him (not the official crap) I do want one >.<*

    can you comfirm that the head-hole in tank mode is about the right size to be believable as a place for the driver to poke his noggin out of?

    Excellent, we now have Leader Class Brawl. Kinda surprised that Isetan called you. They never have been the forefront of customer service. I am impressed.

    It may be due to the lighting in my room. It's all warm light, so almost everything looks slightly darker than it does under sunlight.

    Nice!

    KilaZirks pics convinced me to get this. I'll wait for the redeco, though. I don't want my deluxe purchase to feel completely wasted :p

    Missiles away!

    Dayum, that perspective makes BB look like a dwarf compared to Brawl.

    Scored one today. It's awesome, the two turrets fall off if you push them. so do the white claws. but everything is is AWESOME. Transformation was hard the first time. Looks awesome in both modes.
