a bruticus made entirely out of advance wars-style mini tank brawls with a giant swindle head sounds like a very fun fever dream. i'm glad the best combiner of all time gets all the fun figures.
I feel like this is targeting me for recently realizing that Swindle was not just my favorite Combaticon, but just one of my favorite Transformers characters in general. Not complaining though, this does look pretty hilarious, like Swindle took control of Bruticus by shoving a bigger version of his head OVER the normal one. Which would explain the Funko Pop head
Hey perspective, I'm a bit of a tank nerd so I recognized all the tanks, to explain, for whoever wants to hear it ST-39 is modeled after a M5A1 light tank, which is american but was also used by the british, U-34 is designed off of a soviet T-34 medium tank WWT-36 is modeled after a czechoslovakian tank which was adopted into the german army as the panzer 38t panzer meaning armor, or in this case tank in german, since tanks were usually refered to as armor, TH-38 is modeled after a french S35 Somua tank, and BP-35 is a panzer V panther, and GT-37 is a panzer IV with a short gun, and shirt and skirt side armor, idk why i wrote this but if you were interested, here you go edit, no i did not look this up
@@guffy2486 i just like tank history a lot and tend to go overboard with details and such, I'm the kinda person to talk your ear off about stuff i like
The whole concept is so cool. A Swindle combiner? I know that Axiom Nexus exists where travellers from all dimensions can go to, so I like to imagine there's a universe where Starscream made Swindle first from all the Combaticons, and then he killed Starscream and just made the other components of Bruticus into different versions of himself, thus the Swindlecons and Swindlecus came to be.
"If an exceptionally greedy baby stood up" love that line. lol As for the question, no clue. I think you nailed the nationalities, but don't usually pay tanks as much attention as planes or cars, honestly.
No one can fault my logic. Other people have chimed in and it seems like I was wrong about alot of it, like the Tan one is Supposed to be French and the Blue one is Italian, plus the one I thought was a Sherman seems to be a Soviet tank.
@@PerspectiveEnd Learning is fun. Though I'm not sure how much I'll retain admittedly. lol It took me forever to learn the Datsun bois are actually what is today the Nissan Z series muscle cars. My uncle taught me that one. Turns out we had a family friend that worked on the cooling systems for a couple of model numbers on that line.
So I just got my hands on POTP Voyager Grimlock, and hes dope. Robot mode is cool, the articulation is good for the time, and the looks are great. Dino mode is DEFINETLY compromised. Like, when you look at him sideways, you start from his belly, and he just... stops. It's a SLAB! Other than that it's fine. Combined mode, I don't have an opinion on it since I don't own the other Dinobots. (Now that I have this Grimlock, I'm going to look for the other Dinobots now) But it does look cool. Overall: 8/10 This figure is good on it's own merits, but it's much better with his teammates, especially when combined (hot take because everyone hates Volcanicus)!
Yea, not gonna lie, those are quite interesting figures. And especially a very cute and CHUBBY combiner. As for your question: The first one on the left is an American light tank, if I remember correctly I think this is ML 2. And the one on the right is an WW2 Russian tank army builder T-34 (probadly the T-34-76 version) Number 3 is an German Tank. I don't remember the name, but the shape fits with the ealier German tank desighns. Number 4 is an Heavy French Tank D-1 (or maybe D-2, didn't check those things in a while). And the last 2 are German tanks. The one on the left one is called "The Panther" and on the right is probadly up-graded Panzer 3. And before you ask, I was once interested in history of tanks, especially the WW2 tanks. Also, it is one of the resons why I started to like characters like Warpath or Guzzle 😁. Speaking of questions. And as for the question of the video... Even with out the combiner mode, whitch tank is your favorite and why?
Nope, man, you are not alone, I don't know crap about alt mode vehicles and don't care to really learn. Some characters I know, but mostly because I hear every reviewer say what they are enough times something sticks. This set is actually really cute! (I never thought I'd write that about a transformer.)
Ok so I am going to guess on the tanks. You said WWII so here goes. One has to be a USA Shermin One has to be a Panzer and the rest are guesses. Tiger tank. T-45 (soviet tank) The Mouse tank (the heaviest tank in WWII there were only a few of them made. Similer to the Comand & Conquer Mammoth Tank.) Those are my guesses. Without looking at anything. I love this concept of a combiner that is all tanks. I would like to find out if there is a non-chibi combiner that is all tanks. I want one! Great video mate and I am sure subscribers will start coming back. :)
@@PerspectiveEnd lol the blind guy gets 3 out of 5 with only your description to go on. granted WWII is a study subject of mine so I had a little help there on my guesses. lol
the tanks are all ww2 vehicles (or swindletank), at 0:39, left to right: are a french Renault R-35, a Russian T-34/85, what I *think* is an italian M13/40 but its extremely hard to tell it cos LOOKS like a low quality minor axis tank but which ONE is hard to pin down, a German Panther D, a German Panzer 4 F2, that has been modified to have late war spaced armour that the thing really shouldn't have, and an American M5 Stuart. Where did you get these and how can I get them myself
These seem to be different versions of tanks, however I don’t see a t-90 maybe that’s for the better, I’m pretty sure it would explode from simply existing
@@PerspectiveEnd the T90 is the current russian tank in active service, and it's ammunition has a tendency to be hit when fired upon, because of its placement in the tank, so there's a joke it always blows up, because you almost always see the ammunition explode
Man I don't know, I have so much stuff I want to do, but what needs to happen is what's most important first. Reviews of figures people might want to get before they are sold out. News and other such stuff.
It looks like a 7+ set with a price that feels slightly overpriced and you would get it for yiur kid any day of the year rather than a special present for bday or chistmas. The equivalent of a lego juniors set
Dude I don't know what you are on about. Over Priced. This thing is a FANTASITC Price. It's the price of a leader but you are getting something way bigger than a commander.
@@PerspectiveEnd im not saying it is, i have no idea what the price is. Im just saying it looks, i made up a hypothetical price if this thing was a retail toy.
I like to imagine that these guys are minicons and their combined mode is about as big as Brawl and they are enemies with the baby dinobots from TLK but more G1-ified who combine into a Mini Volcanicus
To answer your question yes in the order you showed the tanks as follows The first two you showed aren’t American or British their Soviet. The one on the left is either the KV-1 or KV-2 demanding on what’s on it and the other one on the right is the famous T-34 with the number on its side being an Easter egg for the tank SU-34 for with the su standing for Soviet Union. I can’t figure out the third one it might be French but it’s to chibb-a-fidde to figure out The fourth one is Japanese I believe it’s the Type 95 Ha-Go though I’m not 100% sure. And the final two are I believe one on the right is either the Panzer 3 or Panzer 4, but my money is on the Panzer 4 and the other one on the left is the really famous Panzer 5 otherwise know as the Tiger. I’m a WW2 buff so these tanks are just something I know about as off the bat I recognized almost all of them. And I have that Soundwave Pop it’s going to be apart of my Soundwave shelf when I get around to putting up a new shelf.
I showed the tanks in a few different orders, which timestamp order are you talking about? Yeah, what's funny is I thought about buying the Soundwave, then a friend bought it for me for my birthday last year.
My knock off of the iron factory bruticus will show up in one week but I might just get this for novelty. Also No I can't say with out looking up the name of the tanks and the MMCticus one is trumping this one.
Even without partsforming, Kingdom Warpath is harder to transform into robot mode than to vehicle mode. With good QC of course. I love the proportions of the Swindlecus members. I'm a huge fan of chibi proportions. If there was a Warpath with these robot proportions, I would buy it. These are like Choro-Q Transformers, but less tubby. And the combined mode, I don't agree that it has Funko POP vibes. Funko POP is boring as hell while this guy reminds me more of SD Gundam and those Transformers bobble head Alt-modes stuff. Overall, this set looks great. Shame the material is low quality though. Let me tell you, Funko POP is crap value. The medium sized Funko POPs are around the price of Core Class figures. More often than not, Funko is more expensive. Do you think the Funko POP Soundwave is better than the Core class Soundwave? Hell no. Now, robot figures are better than ever. CHUG Deluxes feel like complete figures now. Kingdom Warpath is borderline perfect for what he is. The gacha Gundam figures are also peaking, they often had sculpting mishaps somehow, now they're very clean. I'm sure innovations in articulation help the flagship model kit Gundams too. I just don't bother cause I hate the material they use. These are the only ones worth a damn in retail. If you want a variety of brands, you gotta go to a collector toy store or SHOP FUCKING ONLINE. But they are so worth the effort. BB-36 Nightcrawler is an amazing beetle figure.
I mean they could be good, but all their limbs are like bracketed away from their bodies, and they are mounted in weird places. Funko is Booring, but they do have the large simple heads. Oh yeah, I don't buy Funkos, but people have given me some.
What is this? It looks cute. I like how all each of them have a distinctive tank and robot mode. Overall, this is weird but cute and cool at the same time, it helps that the combiner is Bruticus inspired. Anyway, great review.
I have the Combiner Wars Bruticus. If I ever get the Power of the Primes Blast off it will be complete. The jet version Blast off I'll turn it into a regular seeker.
This tankicus looks funny also Hey you got your shattered bois hope that they're bringing you the same joy I go out of the except for that frickin goldbug
He doesn't watch my videos except for the ER a Bad Toyline, where he called me a hater and an idiot, then months later apologized, saying he could now see what I was talking about.
Speaking of combaticons I wonder what would you choose given the situation for 2023 a third (fourth?) party company make a ko of the mmc combaticons chug size just like they did with devastator from combiner wars or for the legacy of the next one to do them pros and cons id say the mmc would have very weak control damage given their ko'ness and some parts of the transformation just work with the masterpiece style and wouldnt if it was undersized/ legacy would DEFINATELY make partsforming and i doubt they will look as cartoon accurate as mmc would ever be
@@PerspectiveEnd given how a 4th party would make it, perhaps the tolerances might be a bit wobbly, but im only based when comparing ko to their hasbro counterpart, also dr lockdown made the argument that there is a reason why scale matters and why legends class figures wouldnt work if they were just bigger, i think the same can be applied with chug scale/mp engineering
I had seen this figure before, but even for $60, I don't think I would pick it up. I am just not into the Funko pop figures. However I appreciate the review.
For a moment I thought this was made by that chibi company, Master Made but they can make something that doesn't have a lot of flaws but partsforms like no tomorrow.
Damn, this little doofus is awesome. I love the chibi tanks and how they're kinda crap. Fun crap. Sadly I missed it, but I'm glad I could at least see it here.
This guy is like what if devastator (because there are 6 guys) and bruticus had a baby and those babies only chose a tank mode and they liked swindle the most
Hey, just an idea, could you show the figures more in action poses? Like, these figures, as it seems, have decent ranges, but i feel like it's useless in the end
I always want to show more, but the problem is fitting them in somewhere in the video, like I don't ever want to just stop it and show off a bunch of poses, or have something that isn't what I'm talking about on screen.
Lol I’m in the same boat of “Transformers fan who doesn’t care about vehicles”, which is probably because I grew up with animated, which looks nothing like real cars
Jokes on you PE, I'm already subscribed. Since you stated that you aren't into vehicles I have to ask: how do you feel when hasbro changes the alt modes of characters? For me, I don't care what kind of car let's say, sideswipe is, as long as it's red and looks cool.
I mean I always want them to have the modes they are supposed to, but I couldn't name what they are. I can Recognize them though. So long as they aren't heinously off I wouldn't be too mad about reinterpretations. Like I obviously hate Edgelord Prime's altmode from the movies.
I did not expect to see this review. It's definitely super weird. Now I'm wondering how many are asking you for your thoughts on yesterday's announcements from Hasbro.
I would like to report possible QC issues as on my kingdom galvatron the clear plastic peg on the cannon snapped off and on my legacy dragstrip one of the clips holding his left foot on is snapped and one of the pegs for the wheel was snapped out of the box i just wanted to mention this a possible warning. Great video
Will you get the G1 bruticus? I mean you are a bruticus fan from what I can tell, I'd say my favorite version of bruticus is RID ruination (or car robots baldicus) I mean the animation models actually look like the toys since I'm sure sunbow didn't get good photos of the G1 toys and a vague description and didn't ask for a better photo
Not related, but I got and built the lego prime. It's really awsome, better transformation than mp prime 3.0 with no faux forming, great accessories and really fun. Highly recommend. Are you thinking about picking him up?
Ok Grey is a panzer 4 Dark blue I think is a panzer 3 Dark green is a t-34 Dark tan is a panther Hang on I need to watch the video I’m not cheating Edit Tan is a French tank char B maybe And the light green is an m4 Sherman Also HOW DO YOU MIX UP CHEVY AND TOYOTAS BASED OF THEIR LOGOS!!?!
This is a weird figure, however the weirdest thing is that this video is unlisted. Anyway for QotV: I think they are tanks. If they made Superion in this style it would actually be pretty G1 accurate.
@@PerspectiveEnd For swindlecus everyone except for brawl is the wrong vehicle. Every member of Superion is a plane, so they could probably do a pretty G1 accurate version using the same style of “all of the vehicles are chibi versions of ______” and still look mostly right

I've gotten so many different answers on that. Like one of hem said three of the figures were Panzers.
a bruticus made entirely out of advance wars-style mini tank brawls with a giant swindle head sounds like a very fun fever dream. i'm glad the best combiner of all time gets all the fun figures.
It's clearly because people have taste.
It is amazing

Not complaining though, this does look pretty hilarious, like Swindle took control of Bruticus by shoving a bigger version of his head OVER the normal one. Which would explain the Funko Pop head
Swindle is AWESOME. He's easily the Combiner Member who's most important without it mattering that he's a member of a combiner team.
He's a fan favourite and yet the first standout episode that made his character was also G1's very worst; B.O.T.
Personally, I always view Swindle as more of a solo villain rather than a team member. Mostly thanks to Animated and IDW
"We got Brawl, Brawl, Brawl, Brawl, Brawl, Brawl, and T-Pain."
The funniest part about this is the way the camera pans to each Brawl
I'm glad after all this time, someone found that joke funny enough to comment about.

Overall: 8/10

Yeah he's a bit weird in that rex mode. But I do like it. Though the torso likes to split in half.

Because it's a Chad... Just look at it.
This tankicus looks funny also Hey you got your shattered bois hope that they're bringing you the same joy I go out of the except for that frickin goldbug
I didn't get all of them, just the one's you've seen and this one.
@@PerspectiveEnd damn that sucks Megatron's a treat and well goldbug is well I think everyone knows how that thing is
Perspectiveend: does anyone know what these vehicles are
The lazy eyebrow: my time has come
He doesn't watch my videos except for the ER a Bad Toyline, where he called me a hater and an idiot, then months later apologized, saying he could now see what I was talking about.
Speaking of combaticons I wonder what would you choose given the situation for 2023
a third (fourth?) party company make a ko of the mmc combaticons chug size just like they did with devastator from combiner wars or for the legacy of the next one to do them
pros and cons id say the mmc would have very weak control damage given their ko'ness and some parts of the transformation just work with the masterpiece style and wouldnt if it was undersized/ legacy would DEFINATELY make partsforming and i doubt they will look as cartoon accurate as mmc would ever be
What is this about Weak Control and Damage on the MMC? They are always great in that regards.
@@PerspectiveEnd given how a 4th party would make it, perhaps the tolerances might be a bit wobbly, but im only based when comparing ko to their hasbro counterpart, also dr lockdown made the argument that there is a reason why scale matters and why legends class figures wouldnt work if they were just bigger, i think the same can be applied with chug scale/mp engineering
I had seen this figure before, but even for $60, I don't think I would pick it up. I am just not into the Funko pop figures. However I appreciate the review.
I mean it's a lot better than Funko Pops, but I understand.
@@PerspectiveEnd no doubt because this actually does something.
I like the Chibi aesthetic ngl
Combined mode head could be better
Yeah the head really needed some functionality.
QotV:
My answer: oh that is actually adorable FOR THE FIRST TIME A BAD IMITATIVE KNOCKOFF IS GOOD this needed to happen, bruticus just makes it better
For a moment I thought this was made by that chibi company, Master Made but they can make something that doesn't have a lot of flaws but partsforms like no tomorrow.
These actually feel better than Mastermade. At least based on my limited Experience with them.
WOW! I had no idea, "Brutitank" existed. lol
So man different possible names for this set.
@@PerspectiveEnd Each one is equally as cool and cheesy as the last one. lol
I usally like Transformers in Tank modes sometimes but dang that Swindlecus combiner looks so weird lol.
Yeah, they got Mad Metal Slug Energy.
This is bizarre yet interesting
And awesome.
This figure looks way more stable than official Hasbro combiners and I don't know if I should like that fact or hate it.
Why not both.
"Why call it Swindlecus when it's made of just tanks? Shouldn't it actually be called Brawldicus or-
*Giant Swindle Head*
Okay, fair point
Yeah, Brawlticus would make more sense if Swindle didn't sell them the head.
Damn, this little doofus is awesome. I love the chibi tanks and how they're kinda crap. Fun crap. Sadly I missed it, but I'm glad I could at least see it here.
Yeah, its silly fun crap, and sometimes we just need that in the community.
Yay, its up!
Finally. Sorry it freaked out like that.
This guy is like what if devastator (because there are 6 guys) and bruticus had a baby and those babies only chose a tank mode and they liked swindle the most
LoL!
Hey, just an idea, could you show the figures more in action poses? Like, these figures, as it seems, have decent ranges, but i feel like it's useless in the end
I always want to show more, but the problem is fitting them in somewhere in the video, like I don't ever want to just stop it and show off a bunch of poses, or have something that isn't what I'm talking about on screen.
@@PerspectiveEnd i think that it could fit in some segments, where you just talk about the figure and have your logo just spin.
Great video!!!😁 I hope you great day!😀
Thank you! You too.
The swindle head taps into the chest guy legs
Yes and it barely holds?
I find the combined mode really cute looking for some strange reason
Cause it's a giant Greedy baby.
This combine being a K.O completely destroy the combiner wars toys interms of holding all of the parts together
Yeah, this KINGSHIT of KOs makes CW look limp.
7:25 Speaking of, have you seen the Optimus prime and Megatron ducks?
Yes. They are Hilarious.
3:51 the funniest thing is that when the vid released I was sleeping and probably dreaming.
Also im wondering how the video got delayed.
UA-cam just had an error where it didn't remember the Scheduled release time.
Well ITS ABOUT TIME 💀 it's like 3 AM for me
Sorry about that. UA-cam glitched out.
7:06 this part was so funny 💀
Glad tiny animal death is funny to you.
7:52 huh didn’t know you were a fan of guyver as well sweet
I've seen the American movie... I know... Gross... But that's all I've seen.
@@PerspectiveEnd not that gross the practical effects are absolutely fantastic in it
Happy midsummer
Thank you so much.
Brawl is my favorite combaticon so this set is great
And I'm assuming Swindle is your other favorite?
Lol I’m in the same boat of “Transformers fan who doesn’t care about vehicles”, which is probably because I grew up with animated, which looks nothing like real cars
Who has time to commit a bunch of useless information like model and year numbers to memory.
These things are on the knifes edge of looking like knock offs
I don't know that I'd say they are on the Knives edge. I'd say they fully crossed over.
These tanks are cool and all I can say is tanks for this video
AHHHHHH!!!
Jokes on you PE, I'm already subscribed. Since you stated that you aren't into vehicles I have to ask: how do you feel when hasbro changes the alt modes of characters? For me, I don't care what kind of car let's say, sideswipe is, as long as it's red and looks cool.
I mean I always want them to have the modes they are supposed to, but I couldn't name what they are. I can Recognize them though.
So long as they aren't heinously off I wouldn't be too mad about reinterpretations. Like I obviously hate Edgelord Prime's altmode from the movies.
I did not expect to see this review. It's definitely super weird. Now I'm wondering how many are asking you for your thoughts on yesterday's announcements from Hasbro.
No one yet, but I obviously need to do that.
Man I love tanks I’m getting this
It's nice and cheap, so I think you will be happy.
I would like to report possible QC issues as on my kingdom galvatron the clear plastic peg on the cannon snapped off and on my legacy dragstrip one of the clips holding his left foot on is snapped and one of the pegs for the wheel was snapped out of the box i just wanted to mention this a possible warning. Great video
There are more brawls in this figure than the number of iq I have
There are more Brawls in this figure, than there are Official Hasbro versions.
@@PerspectiveEnd True. Probably even better than all Hasbro official combiners.
This is impressively charming! A cute metal slug not Bruticus!
Man you just reviewed this thing better than me in 2 sentences.
Will you get the G1 bruticus? I mean you are a bruticus fan from what I can tell, I'd say my favorite version of bruticus is RID ruination (or car robots baldicus) I mean the animation models actually look like the toys since I'm sure sunbow didn't get good photos of the G1 toys and a vague description and didn't ask for a better photo
I wanted one as a kid, but I can't help but feel like getting the G1 version would be incredibly underwhelming now.
A team of different brawls that combine into swindle? Very weird
Weird but awesome.
OH MY GOD I LOVE THEM
As you should.
Do you think we’ll get a legacy bruticus? Honestly if they do i hope it’s based off of the foc one, oh and swindlecus is so incredibly goofy
I don't know if it will be called legacy Bruticus, but I expect in the next few years something like that will happen yes.
That certainly is.......a thing
Indeed.
No, cause why would I waste the brain power just to remember an old vechile that probably wont ever be used again
Agreed.
Question: Is it worth waiting to see if Hasbro does more Aerialbots, or just putting my money down for a Superion?
I think they are probably going to do one of those soon, so I think it's worth waiting.
Bruticus, but for high school military enthusiasts
Not a bad way to phrase it.
I just now got this video notification also whyyyyy is this all tanks like why
You didn't just get the notification now, youtube messed up and only posted it now.
And it's all tanks because fun.
Not related, but I got and built the lego prime. It's really awsome, better transformation than mp prime 3.0 with no faux forming, great accessories and really fun. Highly recommend. Are you thinking about picking him up?
I’m pretty sure the lighter green one is the “Russian Death Fridge” as per dubbed by RussianBadger.
Ok
Grey is a panzer 4
Dark blue I think is a panzer 3
Dark green is a t-34
Dark tan is a panther
Hang on I need to watch the video I’m not cheating
Edit
Tan is a French tank char B maybe
And the light green is an m4 Sherman
Also HOW DO YOU MIX UP CHEVY AND TOYOTAS BASED OF THEIR LOGOS!!?!
There were three Panzers?
The Chevy Logo Is A T! I don't apologize!
@@PerspectiveEnd actually two panzers. Dark tan is a panther. The love them German tanks. Also the Chevy logo is fondly seen as a bow tie.
I just found the video I could not find this anywhere
Yeah, youtube glitched and leaft it unlisted.
@@PerspectiveEnd I was worried for a second That something has happened to you like a car wreck or something
I’m so curious what could have inspired something like this.
... Drugs...
this figure is like weird al music so bad but done in a good way its fun instead of bad
The Figure equivalent of Weird Al... I love that I wish I had thought of it.
For the question of the video: Nope because I too dont give a shit of what the vehicle modes are suppose to be
Glad to hear I'm so unalone.
Some of the tanks look like they'd be from Metal Slug.
Not only did you write this before finishing the video, you also wrote it twice.
WOOO FREE ENGAGEMENT!
This Is......
!!SO GOD DAMN CUTE!!
I can't believe I didn't show it with baby Grimlock.
The tan tank is a tiger or panther and the gray tank is a panzer 2 or 4
That's what I figured.
When you want to make a combiner but only remember one of the alt modes and forgot who gets what head:
This is a weird figure, however the weirdest thing is that this video is unlisted.
Anyway for QotV: I think they are tanks.
If they made Superion in this style it would actually be pretty G1 accurate.
How would it be G1 Accurate. And yeah UA-cam Glitched.
@@PerspectiveEnd For swindlecus everyone except for brawl is the wrong vehicle.
Every member of Superion is a plane, so they could probably do a pretty G1 accurate version using the same style of “all of the vehicles are chibi versions of ______” and still look mostly right
Why is this unlisted? Also this fuckin thing is amazing and I will be purchasing
UA-cam glitched out and didn't post this automatically when it was supposed to.
2:30 nope. if it has treads and a turret its a tank. Dont need no fancy make model or country. A tank is a tank.
I agree.
