Opps seplt "Australian" wrong.

[ILikeSoundwave]

Spelt "spelt" wrong what's with me today !:D

[Shirokaze]

Great news for those that missed a pre-order I suppose, but Amazon was doing them for $71 delivered.

[BigTransformerTrev]

Ahhh, first I spend a FORTUNE on Fort Max and then they re-release him 8 months later for a quarter the price I paid, and now I don't get to feel all smug and special because I am gettin the supposedly exclusive G2 Bruticus. I think the cost of mine from BBTS was $93 with postage so not as cheap is Shirokaze but still a little cheaper than the shops here

[Sharky]

its already here apparently

Oh so he is already here cool !

I was halfway through repainting my FOC Bruticus when a jolly green giant showed up in the post. Not sure if he'll ever get finished now...!


In all fairness it's not a complete waste of space/money. There's ways to mistransform him into something much bulkier than the standard method.


Oh look, a helpful tutorial from someone with a similar username...

WOW! That looks infinitely better!! :D

[ILikeSoundwave]

WOW! That looks infinitely better!! :D

I have to agree that's what i'm going to try with mine.:)

[Sutton]

WOW! That looks infinitely better!! :D

Swindle is the weak link in that setup however. The other option is to just keep him and Brawl in default mode, but that means the shins are 3 times the length of the thighs which is what makes him look so lanky.

I don't think there's a way to make Swindle work better without some serious mod work.

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Wasn't he meant to be an 'exclusive' when it was first announced there'd be a G2 repaint :confused:

Ah, who cares... I still got him for $30 less than what TRU are charging for him.

[griffin]

For those who were holding out for their Amazon pre-orders (to save about $30), Amazon are finally shipping theirs!!!!!!!!! Yay! :p
(I got a shipping email a couple hours ago)

Same here eh - Feels like it has been forever in waiting too! :D

[1AZRAEL1]

I got the email too so yay :D

Just gotta wait on Starscream/Sideswipe wave to come in on BBTS to get the other Bruticus for Hursty :D

[k.wong23]

Same can't wait :)

[drahsrebu]

Meeeee toooooooo:)

[BigTransformerTrev]

I recieved mine from www.bigbadtoystore.com today! He looks awesome! I do like the outer packaging but the inside is so plain and yellow I might take him out of the box.

I have to laugh that he is supposed to be an Amazon/BBTS shared exclusive and he's on the shelves here. I looked at different pics and even the box is exactly the same as the one on the shelves.

It is a shared exclusive in America, not the world. Quite often, items that are exclusive to one or two stores in America come here (and to other countries).

I wonder if they would accept the 25% discount on top of that. That would make it only $52.50 for 5 deluxe toys ($10.50 per toy). I'd buy it for that price :cool:

They wont't only for fully priced items.:(

So it's part of a sale? I can't seem to find the end date.

I might give it a go anyway. All they can say is 'no' or I walk away with a $50 Bruticus.

Try online, nowhere to enter the discount code :(
