Whoa, I almost missed the fact that it's 86 Brawn, thought you guys were talking about Bayverse. Managed to snag one, thanks for the tip guys!

I'm good with my BB Brawn, this one is odd looking to me, jsut looks like a bunch of square panels, doesn't do much for me.

But really happy that I got my Rhinox ordered.. love the way he looks like a "Knight" or such.

Yeah, it's G1 Brawn. Definitely very blocky, but accurate to the cartoon and original toy. I can understand how it wouldn't appeal to people who like more modern designs.

I also have the TR Outback that was the TR mold brother, and I like that version more to be honest.

But when the BB Cybertonian version came out, he was the only figure aside that version of Arcee (that simply stands out) that I found appealing in a way that it would be my default definitive Brawn (and got one of the kits for him so he's more complete).

This one, yeah, it's more about the G1 toy and the cartoon and that's fine, but even then, it's got a weird paneling thing going and reminds of Legacy Skids in his design, where it just looks cheap to me, the way it's so flat and the panels just look off, even the G1 didn't have that particular look to it.

Oh well, for those that will enjoy him, that's great.. heck I might see a TR one selling for cheap now and might grab it.

Outback is a sure bet. I've got.boyh in TR too but like the bigger size of legacy.

On the topic of Outback, I'm hoping we get him in Selects from 86 Brawn! It just... seems like a no-brainer, right? Magnificus proves they can do SS86 molds in Selects, so...?

[Suicide King]

Snagged Brawn after missing out on Beachcomber (which i hope I'll be able to find in stores when he does come out.) This looks like the definitive G1 Brawn to me! The TR one always looked odd to me. Like a hollowed out knock off brand.

Why isn't Studio Series ROTB Optimus Prime not at GameStop?
