It's pretty much accepted in most TF circles that FOC Bruticus is a bad combiner. Sure, the character model looks great, but the actual figure/s leaves a lot to be desired. It's got so many problems: from the tiny Deluxe torso that has all the combiner pegs, to the limb bots having entirely separate modes for…

You'll need a Revoltech Megatron, as the new leader class will be too big to fit in Bruticus' hands. Also, if Onslaught is (as I and many suspect) a Hot Spot retool, then Bruticus' headbutt will land on Devastator's crotch.

You do; it was made in 1986.

He's a haul truck now; those things are as wide as your mom:

The ladder is integral to the torso mode, as the basket on top carries Defensor's head. So they'll have to retool it, but they can't remove it.

They're called Rescue Missiles. It's how 'Murrca does it.

I already have MP-22, but I'm still getting this guy.

Leader-class figures are slightly shorter than Masterpiece Optimus, the new one (MP-11).

They released a Titan-class Metroplex a few years back. It's bigger than that Titan Devastator.

Scrapper has bicep swivel hinges.

Hot Shot

As far as I can tell, the only kibble these guys will have are the forearms, which transform into their missile pods anyway.

That would make sense if Korea was the only country ever occupied by Imperial Japan, or for that matter, occupied for a very long time by another country.

Yeah, a big part of the appeal of Power Rangers (and Super Sentai) is how damn corny everything is, but let's imagine for a second that someone wanted to make a modern Power Rangers movie. And wanted to ditch corny for more of a Godzilla vibe.

I can't say I'm familiar with this gaming keyboard and mouse combo, but it has solid reviews, and $18 is a ridiculous price. [CM Storm Devastator - LED Gaming Keyboard & Mouse Combo, $18 after $10 rebate]

Pretty sure the crotch shot was an X-ray move, not a fatality. Did you not play Mortal Kombat 9?

Yeah. Part of the appeal was that they'd do a bit with lower-than-a-rat's-belly production values and/or humor, then Conan turns to the audience to apologize.

Which was funny, since that was the worst mic work I'd ever seen. In fact, as rap it was cringe-worthy: forced rhymes, no natural flow, no meter. It's like they deliberately chose a man who can't rap to be their Vanilla Ice impersonator.

So Eurocentric, it's got Huns, Indians, Mongols, Indonesians, Incans, Moroccans, Thai, Polynesians, and several flavors of Native American.

Er, my point was that you will have to install mods in order to get the game's visuals up to modern standards. If I have to install mods to make the game look pretty, then it's not aged well.
