This review is from: Transformers Movie Deluxe Decepticon Brawl (Toy)
Brawls seems fairly durable and does look menacing. However, the recommended ages from Hasbro and Amazon should not be taken seriously. Any kid under 7 or 8 will have a very difficult ranging into impossible time transforming Brawls, and since his ability to transform is a big part of his value, keep that in consideration. A Transformer savvy adult, with the instructions, can transform Brawls for the first time in say 10-15 minutes, and get down to 3-6 minutes depending on one's dexterity.With tons of practice and Chopin-like fingers you could probably do it in two, and impress the ladies. For kids, the initial times are much longer and really depend on age and development, and parents should expect to help out, especially with those first couple transformations.
In robot mode, Brawls can stand up without tipping over, though consistently getting him to stand takes a little practice. Previous experience with Transformers and other action figures is a big plus. The fact that his tank treads can act as secondary leg supports in robot mode allows a couple more poses/balancing schemes than there otherwise would be. As a tank he cuts a mean profile and its easy for the imaginative to forget he's a relatively little toy. Be very careful with the clip-on turret missile launchers, the clip-on front bocage cutters, and the long, red projectile he fires. These parts are super easy for kids and adults alike to lose, and are such nice touches that you certainly won't want to. Hasbro was on the ball when they designed Brawls to transform without removing these parts. Also, his gun fires the projectile a few feet and you really can hit things, to the delight of children and yourself. A note on pricing and value. I bought Brawls at my local Toys R Us for $9.99. That's right- $9.99. While he makes a cool collectible I doubt whether he'll hold his value over that in the near future, especially since I'd imagine Hasbro is quite likely to put out another production run given the success of the movie. How much you want to spend is up to one's your individual judgment but keep in mind that people are super-stoked about Transformers right now, and psychological considerations are probably driving up his and every other Trasformer's prices considerably.

This review is from: Transformers Movie Deluxe Decepticon Brawl (Toy)
First off, Brawl is my favorte G1 Combaticon (remember Bruticus?), and im glad he is in the new movie line. His body style pays tribute to his 80's namesake.
Just got him yesterday...I had to go to 3 stores to find this guy, and let me tell you..hes worth it. He makes a mean looking/armed to the teeth Decepticon when in robot mode, Love the claws, rotating guns on the shoulders...and lets not forget that awesome firing arm mounted cannon(..reminds me of megatron) the tank mode is based on an actual u.s. army Abrams tank and the detail in both robot and tank modes are equally impressive. the light up eye makes for a menacing glare, nice touch hasbro. Now comes the cons... those arms again ! they are a pain in the neck to lock into place when transformed, when they lock in place they stay put. he is a bit top heavy. but when you get his legs posed to the desired position, he will stay put. the transformation is smooth, but watch out for those arma again, because they will pop off..but they can be put back on with no problems. dont listen to some of the negative reviews on Brawl, he is worth checking out, if you can find him. He isnt as well built and sturdy as prime or jazz but he makes a great addition to my collection, because he looks so cool. Im really Impressed with some of the characters from the movie line, they are model quality and look good displayed on a shelf or on a desk ( i have a few on my desk at work, and my co workers think they are cool especially my jazz and prime ) these are aimed for the collector, and rightfully so. if you have small children. id think twice about getting them brawl, because some children are very careless. cant wait till the movie in July!

This review is from: Transformers Movie Deluxe Decepticon Brawl (Toy)
Decepticon Brawl is badass!Brawl is built for one thing,and one thing alone-destruction.His programming has been gripped by a rage so deep and hot that the only thing that allows him a few momments of happiness is the fury of combat.There is nothing so sweet to him as the thunderous noise of his shells bursting against the armor of an autobot.Brawl has awesome detail in either mode with a realistic looking tank mode that has the camo paint job and great articulation in the legs,body,arms,and head piece in robot mode.This bad boy comes with sweet features like rotating turrets and a projectile launching cannon.The poseability is outstanding with great stability to create battle scenes or displaying where you please.The durability is excellent as well with secure joints and a solid overall transformation to handle any situation.The transformation level is advanced meaning if you have plenty of experience with transformers there is mid-level difficulty.If you are a parent buying for a child of 5-6 or younger you might have to help some in the process.Honestly Brawl is a very versatile transformer with a managable transformation that all ages should be able to handle after some practice.Brawl is one of the best deluxe movie transformers around and is a must have for any fan.Bottom line Brawl is a well-made,high quality,10 out of 10 transformer all fans should treasure.I highly recommend Decepticon Brawl to all transformer fans and collectors alike.Brawl Rocks and Transformers Rule!!!
