Hasbro needs to do a redeco of Brawn. Make him a Decepticon. He would definitely fit in with Mindwipe and Bludgeon.
Give him a new head, make the alt mode black, and give the guns more paint details, and it would be a win, I think.
Hasbro already have a Roadblock toy. You know Hasbro will eventually repaint the figure. HasTak will milk the mold as much as possible.
Rollbar (RPM - Transformers Wiki) Repaint Brawn into this guy, they already share bot and alt-mode designs.
Not necessarily. Generally new molds released near the ends of lines such as Brawn have considerably less of a chance of seeing a repaint for various reasons. I mean, TF1 Incinerator still hasn't seen a repaint (not including the black Jap version). That said, I would LOVE a repaint of Brawn as Strika.
The chances are it will be. Brawn, a deluxe class is cheaper to produce than the voyager class Incinerator. Remember, Hasbro uses mold repaints on different lines also.
Why a Con, though? Slap a new head on him, make him another Autobot. It's a decent figure for the Bot ranks.
I'd totally go for a repaint of ROTF Brawn. His mold is just too awesome to not be used for other figures. Whoever said that he should be repainted as Rollbar, that would be sweet!
I just thought of something... it would be cool to have a ROTF Hound and ROTF Trailbreaker figure. Maybe they could reuse Brawn's mold for one of those two, or both?
I started a new thread asking if anyone else got a Roadbuster vibe from Brawn - and Cast did. I think ROTF Brawn NEEDS to be done as Roadbuster. ~Z
