You can remove the rear tailfin and tab it into the robot mode back, for a cool optional sharkfin look (not documented, features in the IDW version's picture set - it's apparently the default robot mode for that release)
It's a _very_ good point - it doesn't fold in gestalt mode, and it can hide in the leg without folding in robot mode. So there's _no_ _point_ in that hinge at all dude!
@@DrTeeth66 If anything, it would hide away on his leg better without the hinge. The only thing I could think was to fold it when attached to his back so it's not quite so prominent, but even that seems foolish.
One of the weirdest ways I've seen a head transformation. The other being FT Blaster. Bruticus is very nice. Very solid and overall a good design. Putting Swindle's spare tire in the seats is kind of weird, but I guess it's to lock the windshield in place. Can't wait to see who is next. Menasor done Devastator done Bruticus done Predaking Abominus God Neptune Leokaiser Superion Defensor Computron Victorion Volcanicus If they wanted extra points, Maximus Prime Skyreign Galvatronis
@griffinkimball2454 If MS doesn't make Volcanicus, I'm pretty sure Cang Toys will. They made a legends of their Predaking and they're currently working on the full sized Dinobots.
In G1 it was how they drew Blastoff. Instead of coloring the eyes, they colored the forehead pink by mistake. So this toy did the same to be cartoon accurate. They sell another version too that has the toy accurate head paint instead.
Vortex has two arm transformations for combined mode. Will you show the anime accurate one since you got the anime toon versions? In your vortex video you showed the toy/IDW accurate arm transformation. The difference is how the back half of the helicopter forms for arm Bruticus mode.
You raise a valid point, but I'm inclined to have it look the way I would want it personally. Maybe I'll leave the boom extended, but I like it collapsed a bit.
Very cool video peolesdru

Literal black magic. MS hits again
Hand shuttle robot.
I didnt Know Magic square could made transformers this Clean of kibble. very cool to see
I find most MS figures, particularly the more recent ones, are kibble-free.
Absolutely awesome. Again. I'm to deep into my MP's to start over and collect legends. I'll keep telling myself that.
Good luck!

And so I noted in my description!
I am _not_ as observant as you are diligent, apparently!
Looking forward to the Bruticus video - all the best dude
I just couldn't figure out why they bothered putting a hinge in the tailfin.

I would personally love Volcanicus. Unfortunately, I feel they are likely to just make normal, non combining dinobotsbbn instead
@griffinkimball2454 If MS doesn't make Volcanicus, I'm pretty sure Cang Toys will. They made a legends of their Predaking and they're currently working on the full sized Dinobots.
Mine arrived earlier this week love the engineering on these Combaticons I hope we see either the Predacons or Terrorcons from Magic Square next
I'd love any combiner. Minus Predaking, I would get them all. Maybe minus Vulcanicus or whatever the Dinobot combiner is.
Unpainted testshots of Magic Square's Terrorcons _and_ Dinobots are available on tfw forums!
Wow the nose cone kibble completely hides away! Very cool
Yeah they did great with that.
@@peolesdru his rocket get are a little rough but overall really nice design. Great animation as usual!
Incredible articulation for it's size I feel. Same with the other combaticons in this line
The articulation on MS figures is awesome.
Why is there pink just above where his eyes should be?
Sorry I have no idea.

One irony here is this version is more of the cartoon version. The so-called "IDW" version is actually much closer to the original toy look.
True the first releases are all toon and the second ones are toy/ide
