Looks like the Zellers warehousing strike is over, as board member Johnboy has sighted Revenge of the Fallen Bruticus Maximus (http://www.tfw2005.com/resources/universe-classics-20-decepticons-263/bruticus-maximus-2042/) at an Ontario Zellers today retailing at $49.99.

See what other Transformers products are being sighted in our Canadian Transformers Sightings forum (http://www.cybertron.ca/boards/forumdisplay.php?f=4).

And the general consensus is that this combiner is superior to Superion, yes?

Yes. That is the consensus.

There was a Zellers warehousing strike? News to me.

Bruticus is awesome. If he starts going for $40 or less, I'm buying it--if only to make DOUBLE BRUTICUS.

As much as I want to snatch this set up right away, I think I may wait for a sale. Here's hoping that Zellers gets around a dozen of these guys so I know that there will be plenty left when a sale happens.;)

I checked my local 3 stores and found none :( :mad: :( :mad:

I'll buy it at regular price and try to return my extra Superion :cool:

I loves me my transformers but I don't own any combiners. Safeguard and some Energon Superlinky dudes but that's about it.

This may be my first!

Do you have a link to an image of the "Double Bruticus"? or do you just mean you'll buy two.

I was thinking of the same thing BUT be careful because Zellers receipts has the specific barcode of the product on it

Is it normal 1 of his knees is fully painted purple and the other is half painted?

I finally have all 3 Combiners in G1 Color (Classic Devastator, ROTF Superion & Bruticus). If only I had Energon Constructicon and Bruticus... :(

And here I thought it was only mine that was like that... I guess they goofed, then. :rolleyes:

That happened with my Unicron, actually (it had paint missing on one of the crotchpieces). Could be an anomaly.

Yup. And if they go through with what they planned, it'll blow away the superion set. :D

This is indeed good news.

But, I think I'll wait for the eventual price cut before I pull the trigger.

For the 35 I payed for him, I like this guy, and a lot. He's just so much more solid than Superion, and each of his parts are individually more fun on their own as well. I've done the wacky elephant-leg alt transformation [found somewhere on the weeb], and slapped a hand and gun from a different source on him, and I'm happy with how he looks [his legs in natural mode are too long, but when shortened he looks good. I'm not one million percent in love with the huge shoulder pads my alt-transformation gives him, but I'm learning to deal.]

Still, if you only get one combiner, this is the one. I just... still really hate Energon parts.

I have both and still think Superion looks better. I've done a modified transformation of Bruticus with my own custom appendages. It's a work in progress but I'm willing to bet it's what Fan's Project is going do with the hands. Here's a thread with some pics. Check it out if you want. http://www.cybertron.ca/boards/showthread.php?t=18651
