    My Brawl was missing half of his head.

    [​IMG][/IMG]

    I contacted BBTS last week about it and requested a new one. They apologized for the error and agreed to send the new head. I just got it this afternoon but have yet to put it on. You should see the box it came in though. It was a bit overkill for just a head, but it showed up in perfect shape. I'm going to have to look and make sure all the screws are on mine now...

    I don't think so,it's still missing something, so they should help you out. I know there's at least one "parts" Brawl out there now, maybe they'll just pull the screws from that one...

    You shouldn't feel bad about asking for parts that should have come with the toy already. Hasbro should be embarrassed by that quality of qc!

    So I finally got a good deal on retail Fruiticus. It's always cost versus shipping when I'm looking for deals online as the total cost can get out of hand very quickly.

    Now I have all three versions of the latest Bruticus - Fruticus, Dudicus, Exclusicus.

    I plan on displaying them in the following order - one as Bruticus, one as individual bots, and one set in individual alt mode. Now which set should be displayed in what manner? Or any other manner?

    Dudicus looks epic combined, the retails look great in bot mode and SDCC's look great in their alt modes, you could have the SDCC and G2 playing with the retails in alt modes as toys XD

    Found my Combaticons today. I wasn't sure I was going to get all of them, maybe just my favorite one, but when I saw all five at TRU and realized I had the cash on me after all, I couldn't resist. The last combiner I owned was RID trainbots. I can't wait to put him together.

    I'm planning on getting the G2 Bruticus for christmas, but I might pick up the retail versions too, because I hate the G2 Onslaught head

    Also planning on picking up the Takara version, but it'll be hard to get it at a decent price

    He's the one I'm specifically going after as a retail figure. I'm planning to keep Dudicus as the combiner form for display purposes, but I must have Onslaught for my Onslaught collection.
