    Oddly enough, Bonecrusher & Drag Strip had removable hands, yet the other members of their teams don't.

    Hard to say which version looks better! Loving the extra details on the Toy version though.

    Definitely preferred but… are the wheels on the torso from the animation model? They seem it of place.

    Seeing both Toy & Cartoon side by side it looks like Onslaught actually does fill out or essentially make the chest and the pants are just the thighs, waist, & chestplate.

    Yeah, agreed. It still has the wide chest proportions of the toon version so it doesn't look quite right imo.

    Damn, magic square knows how to do combiners! Giving multiple options with each set is pretty amazing, some of the best combiners at any scale.

    Brawl doesn't look correct for toy version. Isn't the shoulder supposed to be folded at 90 degrees angle?

    w00t!!! 100% toy version for me, thank you very much!!! :D 

    this works to divert your eyes from swindle as the lower right leg, and makes his lack of details compared to the other limbs less noticeable.

    Much better! The more detailed combiner bits just look right with the more detailed limbs.
    Unfortunately it *appears* that he's still got a torso shell.

    I hate that I'll have to use the toy version parts to get away from that random wheel on the left leg. I know it's in that one model sheet but what made them think it was only on one leg?

    Fantastic. Great to have options. I love both styles! It’s gonna be really fun to see them in color, which will differentiate them even further.

    There’s definitely a lot going on with Onslaught. While I don’t think he makes up the entire torso, it definitely appears that more of him is visible than it initially appeared.

    That's an excellent example of "following the toon/model to a fault, even when it's obviously a mistake and makes it look bad".

    Woah, hope you re not as you sound because you kinda sound like an entitled ungrateful "fan"

    Definitely a good looking bruticus there (toy version all the way for me.) Looking forward to coloured image to see if I will upgrade.

    Combiner is clearly a decepticons game. So may options yet only 1 superion (zeta) for autobots

    Toy mods looks so good! I would kill for both MS and MMC to do a ruination repaint, but I’m sure that’s years away if at all.
