    I saw this and thought it was odd, but I suppose a name with "Blast" in it is more fitting for a tank (that can blast you!) than a helicopter. Could an 25th Aerialbots set be far behind? Although they already used 'most' of the names for the Micromaster set.

    Suh-weet. There was a previous rumor that Superion Maximus would also be part of the 25th line as Superion. I had been considering nabbing their Energon versions, so this is another score for later-to-the-fold collectors.

    Bugger, the Bruticus combiner is the only full Energon combiner I own!

    Still it is the best of the 3, so it makes sense to re-release it. If only Hasbro could have made at least 1 new limb or put in a Superion limb to make it a little more different this time around.

    Bruticus is my favourite combiner so I'm happy to see him get the 25th anniversary treatment. But I would of liked his G1 mold re-released in a combiner set like the collectors club has done for piranacon

    I have to see the final execution before I make up my mind but I am glad they are doing it!

    Given how often Hasbro released "Ruination" I half expected this news to be about the G1 toy being re-released.

    How about some new accesories like better hands/fist that can hold a weapon (included) or a shield (or is that only used by Ruination?). Either way, Im a big fan of Bruticus and his components and don't have the mould. Sweet......

    It will most likely be a straight repaint so I am not expecting anything new aside from colors. However if painted properly with proper names it will be good enough for me.
