G1 Bruticus

Author: jetfire, September 16th, 2009

Yo! I got a sweet deal on a G1 Bruticus. I picked him up on the TFW2005 forum for $50 shipped. I think that’s pretty sweet. He came in pretty decent shape (for the price). It’s cheaper than the newly released Encore too. I received all the pieces, including an extra (big) gun. The extra gun slightly worn but… now he has dual blasters. Cool. All the figures are in pretty good shape… no major wear or tear. The seller even applied new reprolabels (that alone cost $15?). The only problem I encountered was with Onslaught, he’s a bit loose. When combined into Bruticus, the shoulders are loose. Not too much of a problem as he will be for display. He won’t be doing any battle scenes against Defensor any time soon.

I’m not a huge fan of Bruticus (toy) because of the dopey face. Since, I have the rest of the G1 gestalts, I might as well have him too. It’s after all… geewun! The parts combine like any other gestalt. In other words, simple. Here’s a picture.
