    I don't remember who's gun is who. But I put the two swords into the back of bruticus and I use the black gun in the karate hand and the other two pieces on each side of the gun

    Got the Fruiticus version and love it. Far from perfect but with the interchangeable limbs and configurable weapons, he is the best non 3rd party combiner I have seen. By far. Admittedly not counting the Energon Powerlinking or Optimus combiners. Two or three combining doesn't count for me, has to be a team.

    I'd really love to get the Dudicus version, but I'll probably regret doing so when and if HasTak makes a Ruination redeco later on, and not that ill-named Wreckers one, either! I'm talking OG Ruination. :cool:

    As a guy who doesn't own anything that combines yet, I have a question. Is this Bruticus bigger than the other 5 man combiners? I've heard some talk about this being the first Combiner where everyone is deluxe sized, but from what I can tell, the Energon combiner members look about the same, anyone care to throw up a couple comparison shots?

    Got myself a Dudicus, and I think he's fantastic.

    Onslaught's a bit of a dud for me, but I really like the other 4.

    The connector ports are a bit scary (I'm always terrified I'm going to snap something important when I attach/detach the limbs), but otherwise, he's great. Not sure why so many people throw so much hate at him. I've certainly seen worse combiners.

    I didn't realize this thread existed.

    Now I can come in and worship Dudeicus/Fruiticus. When I pick him up. ;_;

    to everyone coplaining about the connection ports:

    It's much easier to make the connection if you attach them at an angle. Going straight in is always really tough, but I've found that if you start off the connection at about a 45 degree angle, it makes the whole process go a lot smoother.

    I just don't take him apart. The Dudicus abides as one big robot. Not five little ones.
