Fall of Cybertron Bruticus Generation 2 Color Version

Posted on 05-31-2012 at 10:37 AM by ORIO under Generations / Classics
G2-BRUTICUSs
Thailand store Toys2mail Station has opened up a preorder for yet another, Fall of Cybertron Bruticus. This time, with a full on Generation 2 color scheme. This marks the third version of these figures along with the "game accurate" San Diego Comic Con version and the regular "Energon Colors" Hasbro Generations version.

At the beginning of May we announced a possible Amazon exclusive gift set for the Fall of Cybertron Bruticus figure. Just this past week, it was announced that Amazon will be offering a Generation 2 version of Bruticus to be used in single player mode for preordering Fall of Cybertron through their website. Could this be the upcoming Amazon exclusive gift set? Keep checking back for more info!

Wait...so are the G2 colors an Asian market exclusive or something?

If this is happening, that's very interesting and somewhat unexpected, at least this early.

I was under the impression that "Hasbro Normal" should look like the "Amazon" version and that ONLY the SDCC version will be game accurate. Has their been an update since Botcon that I'm not aware of?
Crystal Convoy
G2 version?

As far as we know, you're correct. I don't see why this G2 version couldn't end up being the Amazon version though.

Holy shit. These molds are gonna burst into dust in less than six months!

Quick! Quick! I want to petition for a version in Urban Camo Ruination colors!
ORIO
From what I can tell, Vortex and Blastoff look GREAT in those colors. I can haz just those 2?

Seconded! giggity
MattoMogwai
I.... actually like that more than the retail release.
General Tekno
Holy freaking awesome.

I'm gonna have to buy those for sure, won't I?
SG hailstorm
…so happy right about this right now
General Tekno
Calling it now - this is DEFINITELY the Amazon set we know about, if only because Amazon is also doing the G2 Bruticus as a preorder DLC bonus.

It makes perfect sense as a tie in. "Order the game, get this DLC, AND get this DLC in toy form too!"
Robogeek28
They're gonna milk these molds for everything they can get aren't they?
TrueNomadSkies
Called it... like a rat.

That's a damn good thought.
Neo Vox
...I might need this version.
Exodus
Hopefully they get peg warmed, than discounted, than I'll purchase them
StayingInTheBox
I'm just gonna go nuts and buy them all. Why not?
Mechafire
Yes

YES

YEEEEESSSSS
StarLurker
Let me know when they come up with a cheaper non-neon colored version.
Onslaught24
FUCKING AWESOME! now i can have 3 Brutici in my collection
General Tekno
So let's see. Now all we need is for somebody to do Ruination.

And to me, that sounds like a job for the TCC or eHobby, at this point. Ruination could be a subscription figure or a whole Botcon set.

That's what I'm hoping too, and I was just talking about that with a friend last night before reading this. Those 2 are easily my favorite molds of the group, and I think the G2 colours look even better on Vortex than the game ones. Prolly about tied between white & gold for Blast Off, but eh. Good is good

This is getting confusing. :S

It's out on October?

It's like they know my Birthday is on October!

It's neat that this exist, but I don't want it.

Seconded, I think you're spot on Tekno. Now I'm going to wait on pre-ordering because if that's true I'm going to be all over the Amazon G2 one.
Onslaught24
Arctic Camo Ruination please
Astronut
Man I'm so confused by all these different versions.
I want two versions of Bruticus, all this different information on where to get what (and stores posting the wrong (?) pictures is making it kinda difficult though.
Omegax80
What.

The.

Hell.

Let's get RID Ruination, RID Arctic Camo, Universe Desert Camo... am I missing any?
Bountyan
Why not Ruination goddammit
Kantus Prime
I will only get this if

1. I can't get the SDCC version.

2. There isn't a Ruination Repaint.

I highly doubt I will get the retail version.
NEST SOLDIER
Can the SDCC version be bought if you can't attend SDCC? How much will it cost?

It depends. The best way to get it will be over Ebay unless SDCC has overstock and Hasbro releases it on their web store like SDCC Nemesis Prime.

I MUST HAVE THIS.

With all the different colors it's making it a bit tough with finding the best mix of colors. It's like each set has a character where I really love the colors and each set has a character where the colors just don't work well for me at all.

Still to have a combiner with nice looking individual robot modes I guess I'll put up with all the color madness.
The Bucket Kitten
If I can't get the SDCC Bruticus, I'll will definitely try to get the G2 Bruticus.

>G2 deco

THANK YOU SO MUCH BASED HASBRO EEEEEEEEEEEE
Noideaforaname
With all these versions they're making, getting a full Bruticus shouldn't be that hard.

Kinda hope you can mix and match, i.e. they aren't all boxsets. I'd love to get G2 Vortex, Energon Bruticus, and 'normal' Brawl, Blast Off, and Swindle.

Too bad that's only for North American customers.
Companies really need to realize that as the internet grows, the world gets smaller. No product should be limited to be bought through official outlets in only one country these days.
man what a messy sentence.
Kaijumaster
Hot-diggity-Disco I hope these come individually I want that Vortex and Blastoff!
LegoTFGuy
If I can, I'm TOTALLY getting G2 and retail Bruticus.

Oh gods Tekno.

Be right.

BEEEE RIIIIIIGHT.

As an owner of the RotF/Fansproject Bruticus already, the G2 deco appeals to me the most BY FAR. Growing up I had G2 Blast Off and could only forlornly long for the rest of the set.

Please Amazon! Otherwise, depending on relative prices, this STILL might be the only version I get. I can't overstate how ugly the mass release one looked at BotCon.

Seeing how collectors usually don't make up a significant amount of sales of transformers toys, Hasbro is really making an effort for the collector's market recently. Especially in Asia, with this release and the impending Generations release that includes Hot Spot they seem to be catering the collector's market directly. I guess this should be a good thing.
