Owner of the original version here. The two mini turrets are a problem on it as well. Most you find for sale are always missing them. Still an amazing figure.

i liked all the movies. talk bad about them all you want, they were entertaining. it's not like the G1 cartoon was a freakin masterpiece of plots and continuity. lol.
M.S. Robinson I AGREE SIR. I like it most TF DESIGNS!!! Brawl always looked tough. Probably one of my favorite looking Transformers. New and old his Design has looked like a badass.
For what little it's worth, owning the original from Hasbro, I can completely confirm that EVERY single fault noted on this guy exists on the original; from the loose turrets to the incessant sound activation. Very good reproduction of what is a relatively unremarkable figure from the '07 film.
I feel like the mold should've been reused for different characters. I'd love to see old Brawl repainted in Armada Demolisher's color scheme. Interesting bit of trivia: one of Brawl's working names was Demolisher.
Thank you. I don't know, I just think they are really cool! My Barbie doll had a boyfriend who's name was Ratchet lol I am a total nerd... you have no idea. I like gadgets, techy things. I am part of tis community here in Holland on Facebook with Dutch TF fans. 500 people. From that 500 people there are 4 women and one of them you're talking to right now ;) I am not the average kinda girl...
I own an original one and I don't have any issues with the smaller turret tubes but I also think for this one I put a little flathead screwdriver in between the tab parts to fix this issue of them falling off
Absolutely cool. I have always wanted one. The price of thw original is ridiculous. That Ko looks so good. I have ordered one and should be getting at the end of this month I am glad you reviewed this one. nice
nice review! I just got the caramel colour version of this guy. but where do the batteries go? mine where removed during shipping? and I cant seem to locate where they can be changed on the figure?
Personally, I don't fault most transformers for having the robot mode visible at the bottom. The only time I can see that being a problem is if you've got them on very, very high glass shelves. Thanks for the awesome vid! I'm pretty torn on the Bay movies but brawl was a real treat.
WOW! Looks miles better than my original! I wonder if they'll do the desert version too? Be careful of the large turret canon, it's notorious for breaking at the base of the barrel due to the gimmick, bought mine broken, fixed it, broke again...
I own the original. Great toy but it have it's flaws. The main one being the visible head syndrom from the _TOP_ of the tank. I'm pleased to see it's been fixed here. Still, the KO have new flaws that kinda cancel out this improvement. A shame. Still, the original go for an absurd price on Ebay so for anyone who still don't have a leader Brawl, this KO is a nice option.
I have him on pre-order 2 months now from Tf-Direct. I sent them e-mail pre-yesterday and they told me they don't know yet when he is coming out. So, how did you get him from them? Did he come out finally??
The two mini turrents on my original Asian Premium Series Brawl stay in their places quite well. As for this KO version, you should expect problems like these when you copy & paste a mold without tolerances calibration. As result, all joints and attachments are looser
Speaking of the new Bayverse movie, wasn't there an episode of G1 that involved King Arthur? As I understand it, Dark of the Moon's overall plot was a mashup between two G1 episodes.
I have the original leader class brawl and it's the same thing as this. The only differences are that this one has different paint and costs twice as much as the original
This is by dream factory is it not, I have a feeling that this is just a test, if you will, because it seems that dream factory have tons of amazing movie figures down the line which are all original molds
That is Because Bay is an idiot and likely refused to change it just to wind up Don Murphy - the particularly daft thing is his development name was Demolishor - which I'd have been mostly fine with. That was changed as it wasn't a G1 Name - Well Blackout isn't a tiny Micromaster and few people even likely know that it is a name re-use when you think of Blackout you think of the Helicopter really. I would be very keen to have a Blackout and a Bonecrusher for sure - there is some drop dead amazing background / unused Decepticons too. I'd really love a leader class Longhaul and Overload too. Possibly a Voyager or Ultra Scrapper perhaps the KO makers can suitably adapt the Voyagers to make a nice Longhaul/Payload and Mixmaster in a nice size. I wouldn't mind a desert colour Brawl either. or even the Tankor Blue one - but I saw a custom once where someone applied the Grey Camo from the Ruination Boxed set deco to a leaderclass and that look superb too. I'm very keen to see what Black Apple's DOTM Megatron will look like too.
Rugalheid Bernstein He was referred to as Devastator in the first film for a very dumb reason. Too many "B" names. Barricade, Blackout, Bonecrusher and Brawl.
What's the reason to buy this, aside from paint and hiding the head? I mean, it's an objective improvement, but '07 Leader Brawl was never the most amazing toy, and this doesn't seem to have elevated it much. The feet still hang off the back, the articulation's still disappointing, the turrets still fall off, the electronics still trigger by accident. I'm just not seeing spending ninety dollars on it when a couple hours with gunmetal paint could get a similar result. Compared to the massive quantum leap that Wei Jiang's versions tend to offer, this just looks like something a customizer would do in their spare time.

That's why he's calling it a knockoff. There's a current fad in third-party Chinese toys that involves taking movieverse molds and upgrading them heavily.

M.S. Robinson they also gave us that Bruticus Maximus RotF repaint that looks fantastic with the Fansproject crossfire and shadow fisher set.
M.S. Robinson yeah ROTF Prime toy is the best!
Probably the best Non Pretender version of Bludgeon as well

I own the original version too and mine has no problems. I reaally like this bulky badass figure.
how is someone as beautiful as you a transformer nerd? lol. most are fat, middle aged men like me, lmao
Thank you. I don't know, I just think they are really cool! My Barbie doll had a boyfriend who's name was Ratchet lol

if i lived in holland i would want to date you but i'm in NY. gla you're part of our epic nerdom, lmao
I think my 6.7 ft (yes he's that tall!) boyfriend wouldn't like that.
But thanks anyway, I feel flattered :)
well holy shit. i'm gonna take my 5'5" ass elsewhere, lol nice to chat with you. tell your boyfriend i was only joking, lmao
I love these.They are so Dang Epic. Imagine this in stop motion with sound effects.:0
I own an original one and I don't have any issues with the smaller turret tubes but I also think for this one I put a little flathead screwdriver in between the tab parts to fix this issue of them falling off
Blackout Brawl and Barricade and Crankcase and Berserker are my favorites in the Movie line and are some of my favorite Transformers
Absolutely cool. I have always wanted one. The price of thw original is ridiculous. That Ko looks so good. I have ordered one and should be getting at the end of this month
I am glad you reviewed this one. nice
Noooo, where is the M01 Commander side by side! I had high hopes here Ben lol. Look a lovely figure.
nice review! I just got the caramel colour version of this guy. but where do the batteries go? mine where removed during shipping? and I cant seem to locate where they can be changed on the figure?

They already have a desert version up for pre-order on tf-direct and it is gorgeous!
Ben, those two turret barrels don't stay on great on the authentic version, and the front tread sections 'work' just as well anyways.
I own the original. Great toy but it have it's flaws. The main one being the visible head syndrom from the _TOP_ of the tank. I'm pleased to see it's been fixed here. Still, the KO have new flaws that kinda cancel out this improvement. A shame.

I still really want this. The APS goes for an insane amount of cash as does the original. Always loved this leader class figure.
ho, which its your recomendation a KO version vs the original considerating the price. Thank you
the Turret is the whole thing that rotates..the tube that fires the round is also know as the main gun, or just simply cannon
I have the tan version of the leader, and I found it amazing, tho I'm missing the arm guns..... realy wish I could somehow get those....
Transformation starts at 7:00
Shiny Odin man of the year
Also the front turret acts as a button thats why it doesnt snap all the way in
I have him on pre-order 2 months now from Tf-Direct. I sent them e-mail pre-yesterday and they told me they don't know yet when he is coming out. So, how did you get him from them? Did he come out finally??
StathIsOptimus some times youtuber get the figures first to review it to get more people to buy it
Yea I know that.... I just want to know if he is out yet or he will be in some days/or whatever.
What i love about this figure is that his exactly what he is supposed to be a walking tank
Looks good, but kinda wish that cannon stored upwards better than being on the side of his waist....
G1 Smokescreen i swear i see u everywhere😂😂
I have no issues with the turrets on the original one
Glad your back up and running Ben :)
The two mini turrents on my original Asian Premium Series Brawl stay in their places quite well.

good to see u Back benny! another great reveiw
Speaking of the new Bayverse movie, wasn't there an episode of G1 that involved King Arthur?
As I understand it, Dark of the Moon's overall plot was a mashup between two G1 episodes.
I have the original one Ben and the 2 little barrels that wont stay in just like your ko one
I have the original leader class brawl and it's the same thing as this. The only differences are that this one has different paint and costs twice as much as the original
11:17 middle finger
Does this have any die-cast Ben?
is it a KO or just a repaint with a better mold?
Angel Perez KO of a repaint.
I had the hasbro one from years ago and it was quite well made. Had to sell it but got double the price for it 😁
You mentioned Blackout. Is he going to be Leader Class?
Are you going to review dream factory's bobecrusher
Anyway, hows it going on your end?
Is it still available? Or in EBAY?
I'd love to see this mold downscaled to voyager size, I think that would be the perfect scale.
can you compare it with deluxe class jazz
i hope they dish out more of these movie figs.
been ages since i saw a brawls review
Nice figure.
Now if there was a leader sized DOTM Shockwave...
They're already working on one

It is from Dream Factory, as Wei Jiang, they sell the KO in other stores.
How do you think this will scale with new movie masterpiece figures?
Joey Cabello yes it will i think idk
Waaaay too large.
could you tell me please which brand is???
Victor José Leon Quispe It's right there in the title, mate.
Hahaha sorry
They need to get some more and more Dream Factory in the stock
How dose this cost
I want a bone crusher that is leader class size or at last voyager class, with a re designed set of arms and claws.
TheKoss11 Studio Series Brawl, then.
The only bad thing about leader brawl were the noises and the cannon being on his waist.
But that's my opinion.
I always found it weird that Brawl in the first bayformers movie was referred to as Devasator.
That is Because Bay is an idiot and likely refused to change it just to wind up Don Murphy - the particularly daft thing is his development name was Demolishor - which I'd have been mostly fine with.

90 Lancaster Black Apple should do Bayformers Galvatron and Lockdown.

Barricade, Blackout, Bonecrusher and Brawl.

Mister Bad Guy Paint, mostly. Most people aren't good at customizing so this is for them.
I have the original leader class brawl and it's the same thing as this. The only differences are that this one has different paint and costs twice as much as the original
Looking forward to the bonecrusher
i have the leader class brawl from the original bay movie.
Fantastic figure!!!
WOW this brawl is awesome! I want one. decepticons Rule! 👍
This things on his legs if you see the concept art is pointing up and not down.
It's sold out 😥
lul u actually flipped us off at the end of the video. just sayin it's actually funny XD
dude this is the same toy Hasbro came out with from the first live action movie, even the exact same transformation
That's why he's calling it a knockoff. There's a current fad in third-party Chinese toys that involves taking movieverse molds and upgrading them heavily.
But this isn't upgraded, it seems like the same toy from 2007 with an extra panel
Well, when you have a fad, you have people who get really lazy about it.
(It also has some more paint.)
This boi (still) THICC.
i have all masterpeice first movie decepticons except movie one megatron :( if only
This toy of ages must not be played with children or of the men with Beards, it is of the law , please to enjoy the product much many time!~
❤✌
it's ok but I'm not blown away. I'd like it at a low price
Second. Yayz
