It seems as though Hasbro/TT can't do anything right by the fanbase.
It is ALWAYS 'not enough paint apps' this and 'not good enough articulation' that.
Now there is a new complaint, 'too many paint apps' regarding this figure (there are complaints on one website in particular ...take a guess)

The poor guys are trying, at least they're adding paint. I know the colour isn't that good but at least there is some.
I wouldn't say that it needs more paint apps. I would say that it has poorly chosen colors. What they appear to have included is that clear pink plastic which the Euro Turbomasters used to have. It worked well with those toys but not Shockwave!

This isn't about how many paint apps it's got but how poorly chosen those colors are.

Is criticizing Hasbro for mass releasing FOC Bruticus in horribly bright colors while having the game accurate release as an expensive and hard to acquire exclusive not warranted?

I honestly don't see much 'trying' in any of their recent assortments. The only bright points appear to be the MP announcements but even Sideswipe's size can be called into question but still, those are Tomy not Hasbro!
