Are the individual robots gonna be released separately or in a giftset sort of packaging?

The Takara versions will most probably released in a giftset, which is how I feel TF gestalts should be released.
from the looks of it, both should be coming as a gift set. can't wait to see how the box arts will be like.

Couldn't agree more... These gestault boasts articulation, but their form is quite far from what i'd regard as "nice"...

both might come out with giftset but i tot hasbro already decided that they will release each gestalt as 1 deluxe followed by four basics.... mebbe have to wait quite long before hasbro will make giftset.

| 27 Aug 2004: Autobase Aichi has reported some new upcoming Transformers news from source that attended Takara Business Seminar held during this week. - Other than one name change of Silverbolt to Afterburner, the rest of the Combiner names will be the same as their G1 Combiner counterparts. - Superion: Afterburner, AirRaider, SkyDive, SlingShot, Firebolt. Bruticus: Onslaught, Swindle, Vortex, Blast Off, Brawl. from http://fantofan.jp/ |
Cool, only a name changed for Takara. Seems like the Technobot is promoted to Aerilbot Commander
Bruticus' colour scheme a little off leh

If u like a more uniformed colour, can buy 2 sets of teh same limbs!
Correct me if I'm wrong...but the limbs r just repaints of each other rite?
shapes a little off alright...

yep! Dunno why they did that tho. I tot the whole point of combiners was forming 1 bot from 5 DIFFERENT bots....

Take the main bot from superion
Take 2 limbs from Bruticus' team
take another 2 limbs from the constructicons...
Ta-da, you now have a re-paintless gesalt. Maybe you can call it Construct-Bruty-Superion Maximus.
or maybe rojak maximus.......
haha! But then which side will he be on?! The poor dude's write-up on his tech spec is gonna end up like menasor...so confused

At least its not like the Machine Robo Rescue series whereby all the limbs are the same!

Yupz....I still prefer 5 different bots combining into 1 big bot. Dats y G1 is still the best !!!
After JRX I expect takara will release even better gestalts. Oh well better than non.
Hmm,unless I saw wrongly,but I wld have prefered them having fingers...

substituting a traditional hand for weapons is also a pretty neat and cool idea wat...
Makes them look more menacing than he traditional gestalts.
I still don't like the idea that the limbs are repaints...
Me too. I'm actually rather disappointed at that. Still, at least they haven't forgotten about gestaults.
on second thought, i think i'll be getting those gestalts... they look pretty cool...
Cool ! Hear Superion is coming out at the end of this mth and Bruticus will be in Oct. Can't wait to get both....
I wud be going for them both too!
