Bombshock Robot Mode/For a Scout this guy has a very cool Robot mode design,he gives off the vibe of a Bomb Disposal expert,All the big panels further emphasize this,A nice headsculpt very characterful ,THe poseability is quite good eveything you need in the arms and legs except an ankle joint.No head movement but he can be put in many poses,A very cool design he is much better in robot mode than Skyburst.

Bombshock Vehicle mode/is not that great an artillery platform(i think),very big in vehicle mode for a scout,but the problem is that the powercore combiner points stick out the back with no attempt to cover them up,other than that it rolls pretty well,and the cannons are very movable turret has 360 movement,decent not great.

Combaticons Alt modes/THe drones are amazing little vehicles ,very detailed, i like all of them,all roll very well,I like the way you get a whole squad of military vehicles with this set.The weapons on them are movable also which is a nice feature.

Bombshock Torso mode/the best part of the figure,a gorgeous Headscult which is very Bruticus, the chest makes him look powerful ,it all fits together very tight a much better torso mode than Skyburst.,none of the robot arms or legs are visible here.I love the way the cannons come over the shoulders.

Bruticus mode ?(Bombshock with combaticons)/The combined mode is so cool the legs are very solid easy to make him stand,THe way some of the drones convert is so cool you are like how did it do that,the arms are awesome better than the aerialbots,again you have a long claw arm and a shorter big arm which gives the pcc combiners a unique look.When the 2 packs come out and i can atach mini-cons on to this beast it will make him even more epic.Only bad point is the legs while easy to make him stand on are abit loose they pop off if you move him suddenly,but its not that big a problem.

Overall a very good set this one is better than the Skyburst with Aerialbots set ,a cool robot and an amazing torso mode,Find the right Drones and this guy makes will make an Epic Combiner.The pccs will just get better and better as more Drones,commanders and mini cons come out .But Bombshock is a very good one to start off with.

Score 85/100

Nice review, still on the fence about these guys though - €24.99 in Smyths, little bit pricey.

Question - is it possible to use the helicopter from the Aerialbots as an arm for Bruticus?

You can use the yellow helicopter as an arm but the blue on is only a leg,basically you can use any arm on any commander and any leg on any commander

the last picture shows the helicopter as an arm on Bruticus.

Forgot to say about the Articulation in combined mode,its better than you think,head swivels side to side and can look up a bit,Arms can move fully at the shoulder no elbow but there is finger movement depending on which drones you use.Has a waist joint full movement in the hips and knee and depending on what drones you use the ankles have some movement.
