I'm not too intent on Megatron because of the upcoming repaint next year but Brawl looks pretty bad ass.

Walmart here basically has five of each warming the shelves here and had reduced the price to $45 a piece down from $60 I'm thinking of picking up Brawl seeing as it's slightly less but still need some added incentive to do so.

So how is Brawl overall and is it worth picking up?

I could ask the same for Megatron but I'm really hoping Canada won't get screwed with some US exclusive deal again.

I quite like Brawl, he's awesome in robot mode.


My only problem with him is that the particular automorph that actuates his electronics doesn't stay in alt mode very well with mine. If you barely bump him whilst a tank, it fires and his head pops up and the front end transforms slightly.

I can't recall anyone else complaining about this, but I noticed in the mail-order catalog I got from Hasbro, the Leader Brawl pictured there seemed to have the same issue.

I thought about taking mine back, but said "f'k it" since I tend to leave him in robot mode 99.9999% of the time anyway.

Leader brawl is fantastic and I highly recommend him. I've not any issues with mine and the issue listed above and this is the first I've heard of it. most common complaint is that it's hard to get his arms in the correct position for tank mode. While I will agree to that it's much like the alternators. you have to get it into the right sweet spot and it works.

Megatron...wait for the repaint. Leader megs is a great toy in terms of posability and well wourth it in that respect. I happen to like the alt mode of this version better than any other. Only problem I have is that stupid head in alt mode.

Brawl is better then Megatron in leader class. I'd say get Brawl and get Megatron's voyager class toy. *Besides, what about the hand problems?*

I wasn't aware of a repaint for leader class Megs. Does anyone have a picture or a link?

As far as Brawl goes, I had a chance to handle one a couple months ago and I liked the toy. Getting one for xmas. thumbsup1.gif

Does Prime also have the gun, or just the swordy?

Mine does that too. It may be a UK only problem?

Get Brawl !

I had megs, but as it basically is a "thing" that transforms into another "thing" ... I returned it. It's bulky, it's ugly, and I prefere non-sci-fi alt modes anyways icon_wink.gif

My Brawl automorphs just fine. Only the missile-launcher thing on his right arm keeps falling off at the arm-joint =(
This is only a problem during transformation, so no big deal.
His arms are hard to position correctly, but that doubles the fun for me clap.gif

Get Devastatir/Brawl he's the best of the Leader Classes.
