    The closest to that would probably be these two.

    When people say Ruination they mean Baldigus's colours since that's what was used in the show. So seeing as his original colours haven't been used since it could apply.

    I think it's just a case of the Bruticus toolings being the most readily available. Especially after they were refurbished to produce Baldigus.

    Bruticus was the only one of the Scramble combiners to get an Encore release as well, even though you might also expect the Aerialbots, Stunticons, and Protectobots to also be available, after the toolings were hauled out for G2. Makes you wonder if something happened to those molds in the interim.

    Oh my god, you're right. I just got my first MMC figure and now I'm addicted to this figure.
    The figure looks clean as hell. And the alt-mode is perfect.

    This is one of the best figure engineering I've ever seen. A perfect kind of not-so-complicated.
    even tho the instruction kinda confusing.

    Now I'm hooked to collect all the figure.

    Don't forget to move the rear flap of the front fender back, in Jeep mode. :)

    LOL - I did warn you LOL!!!!

    Do you know what the next step in this addictive cycle is - after you've got the whole set + upgrade kit (if you can find it anywhere)????

    The next step is GETTING A SECOND SET OF ALL OF THEM LOL!

    I blame @Bruticus88 for this (joking!)

    She posted a pic of Assaultus with 2 of Fraudo acting as both legs - this was long before Brawl/Probus was released. This got me thinking; it would be neat to have a second Fraudo standing in (no pun intended) for the left leg of Assaultus. You've got to remember it was MONTHS between the release of each figure - except the last 2 - it was only 4 weeks.

    This then led to the idea of getting a full second set - one for combined mode, one for robot or vehicle mode.

    The current problem is BOTH versions of Assaultus (with and without upgrade kit) look amazing and very unique in their own special way.

    Which leads to the next stage in the cycle - resisting urge to purchase a 3rd set so that both version of Assaultus are on display with an additional set in robot mode displayed around their feet.

    So far I've been overcoming the urge to do this. Plus an empty wallet is a big reality check.

    What are the chances MMC will reissue the upgrade kit? I wasn’t planning on grabbing it initially but would like Bruticus to stand eye to eye with Defensor when he gets done. :)

    Planet Steel Express list restocks of both these 2 very soon @Easterburn. Volatus is only 5 days away, Probus next month. I've purchased both of these 2 bots from them previously and have nothing but praise for their customer service.
