Fansproject Xfire - Bruticus pics

[minion]

Much like with my Protector Armour I took these photos as I (excitedly) got these two out of the packaging!

Munitioner in his box.


Explorer in his box.


I'm a real stickler for when images match up. DVD cases, toy boxes, book spines, etc. There's just something awesome about it.


The underside of the boxes show how the bits included can help enhance the other team memberss.


Munitioner in humvee mode.


Munitioner with Swindle. The classics release on the left and the original on the right.


Munitioner in robot mode alongside G1 Swindle. GD knows that my Swindle always has a briefcase with him.
I really can't express enouigh about how much I LOVE this figure. It's amazing.


Love the smile.


Explorer alongside G1 Blastoff


Robot mode with Blastoff. The tail fin forming a sword is really cool. Feels a bit out of place on a Combaticon as I picture them being strict military with guns only, but still cool.


Munitioner and Explorer hanging out.


Coombaticons, merge into Bruticus!


Bruticus is tooled up! Two giant gestalt sized combat shotguns, and a Robocop style assault cannon which has two modes (assault cannon and then the barrel can flip around to make it look like a machine gun).
This is just how Bruticus should be - perfectly able to bring the pain in some habnd to hand combat, but equally able to weild massive artillery that would put most large TF to shame!

BOOMSTICK!

Great pic's mate. just picked up a set myself, good to see the set works with what ever set of figures you have. i was put off at first as i only had the energon set. the universe set seems to go for silly money now on ebay.

You need to own for the Swindle-greatness alone!

Playing around again this evening and took a few more pics:

First up showing the size difference between G1 Bruticus and the upgraded Bruticus. This guy is a monster!


So, Megatron? Now will you kindly tell the world who the new Decepticon leader is?


Enough! Erm... you are.

I'd like to get these guys, but it's a lot of money to drop.

I'm meant to be selling my original MP Convoy this month, so it's money towards them at least.

Well if I can still get them.

Glad you liked them. As soon as I had a Bruticus with articulted fingers it had to be done!
