My Big Bad Toy Store exclusive Transformers Generations Fall of Cybertron Generation 2 Bruticus box set came in this week. I have previously reviewed both the San Diego Comic Con 2012 and Retail versions of this toy so I’m going to focus on the box and recolor. I suggest you read the other post here for details on the mold itself.
Packaging: WOW! WOW! WOW! The packaging for this toy is awesome. It looks like it came right off the shelves in 1992. It is 1000000000% better than that over thought monstrosity they did for SDCC. He even has a G2 style Tech Spec card on the back, though it would have been nice if they had cards for the individual members.
Toy: Hands down this is the best version of this toy. Its paintjob is as faithful to the original as I think could be possible. They got this one right where they failed on the SDCC version. These are my favorite versions, the one caveat to that being that I still love the silver guns on the SDCC version of Brawl. It also helps that this version is $60, where as you’ll pay $200-$300 for the SDCC version. Even the Retail version (if you can find it) will be $75.
Thanks for reading!
