    I liked him a lot more than I figured I would. I thought he and Wheelie managed to pull off the "comic relief" role a lot better than... the previous pair... and I thought they did a pretty good job of showing how difficult it could be for two minicons in a war with much larger combatants (as well as how they could still be effective allies).

    Didn't much care for his look, I guess, or even his name, but overall I'd say I liked him as a character.

    he's what?

    EDIT: nevermind. Though i have a big vocabulary, i literally NEVER heard that word before like 6 months ago. So much that i thought the person using it actually made it up.

    You think he's like a pirate?

    One of the funnest Transformers of the Movie. He needs a figure.

    By the way, is it wrong that I think of him as a Movieverse version of Brainstorm?

    He was a funny guy; I enjoyed his and Wheelie's antics throughout the film, and their good use of infiltration via gunship and bringing down the warship was awesome.

    I also liked that he turned into a laptop. Don't see many laptops running around :lol

    He was ok, but didn't do a lot. In my opinion another completely unnecessary (and ugly looking) addition.

    I do like the part in Mearing's office when he and Wheelie are playing around :lol

    Brains is one of those characters that I enjoy more and more as time goes on. At first I didn't think too much of him, but then I realized "Hey, he was entertaining. He wasn't offensive (personally). He had a reasonable amount of dialogue and screentime given his relatively minor role. He actually does something? Yeah, I like him."

    The only negative thing I could think of was his exclusion from several scenes/shots where they could've added him and/or Wheelie into the shot, just to increase the exposure of them.

    It's just a shame that we didn't get a figure of him. :(  I vote for an expensive Revoltech Brains figure! :lol

    TF4 totally should be a Brains and Wheelie buddy film.
