Re: Foc bruticus

Yes, they've been out a while now up here in Canada, at least. I bought the set at WalMart here in Ontario in late October. But they aren't super-common to find, even now.

My local store has had 3 deliveries of them. I bought the first delivery, and they have since been restocked twice. While in the US for my xmas holidays I came across them at several stores.

Re: Foc bruticus

I've only seen a complete set once in Ottawa which I promptly purchased and regretted...but I'll keep it cause it's one of the few genuine transformers (not 3rd party) that I would actually want to own these days

Re: Foc bruticus

My local Walmart in white rock, bc, had one of each combaticons last week. So I did the responsible thing and bought them.

I also found a few combaticons here and there in Walmart in Burnaby, be, but no complete sets.

I haven't open them yet, but Echotransformer, why do you regret getting them?

Re: Foc bruticus

It's just the feel of them...they feel cheap and cost reduced like most deluxes these days...and although the design of the individual bots and alt modes are decent, the scale between characters doesn't feel right and IMHO, Bruticus' design is a let down especially if you've played the game.

But for all my whining, I still think its a good idea to grab em as soon as you see em.

Re: Foc bruticus

I quite like them. Not perfect and the plastic is a little cheaper but lots of flexibility in that each of the limbs can be an arm or leg. I prefer BlastOff and Brawl as legs, as BlastOff makes for an overly long monkey arm.

Re: Foc bruticus

In my store I am sure I have seen them at least 4 times although for some reason the 4th shipment someone bought 4 and left Blastoff. I do like the set and actually prefer the BBTS G2 version. Blast off looks great in an almost all white colour scheme
