Following the reveal of Prime Wars Trilogy Punch / Counterpunch, and Prime Wars Trilogy Blast Off we have now stock images of the third Prime Wars Trilogy figure: Repugnus.
As we expected this is another remold of Titans Return Twinferno, which was also used to make Titans Return Grotusque. The robot and monster modes are very G1 inspired and we are you will be pleased with the final result of the final member of the updated Monsterbot group. We also have a look at his included Prime Master: Solus Prime,and part of the packaging art. No images of his announced Titan Master Dastard yet.
You can check out all the images after the jump and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!

Oh yeah. I am liking these a lot.

I've got my Repugnus and he came with two Dastards! If there's anybody missing him, PM me.

I've only got the Takara one, so I went with that. Plus if I put the three Monsterbots together, I tend to get a sort of 'blue-eyed boys' impression'….

Definitely the green eyed head.

I went with the Takara one for mine, swapped the faceplate onto the battle beast titanmaster that came with repugnus
Digger
I’d go green.

Can't decide on which head to give Repuggles, which do you guys think? View attachment 28196665

I acually like the flat better than the gloss

Wow! Take that buddy out for lunch or something. That’s too damn cool.
Thanks!! I was curious about this. The differing finishes are interesting. Which do you like better?
I really to appreciate that Takara consistently goes for the black screws. It’s a nice example of attention to detail and probably only costs them a fraction of a cent per unit.

Having both Hasbro and Takara in hand here is a list of differences i noticed
Takara Repugnus has
Black screws
Gloss robot toes
Gloss Sword details

Takara Grotusque has
Black screws
Flat robot face
Flat robot feet
Flat lower beast jaw
Flat crotch
Flat wings

But cheaper as a combo rather than individually if Grotesques ebay prices are going for alone..

All for Autobots who are as cracked as the worst of the Decepticons, step forward Wreckers, Dinobots and the Monsterbots. When you need a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Send for the suicide squads.

You lucky motherfucker.

i actually got them for free from a buddy at work that got a complete set with doubles

I’m glad this thread was revived. It was a great chance to look over some awesome pics and appreciate Repugnus one more time. IMO, this figure was a really great “last sendoff” for one of my favorite TF lines of all time (and I’ve been in it since ‘84). I’m amazed that he has been available for retail on Amazon for so long! I hope this just means that they produced a ton of them rather than a lack of sales.
Dude, you’re killing me with those Battle Beasts!! I’m jealous as hell.
Digger
Oh is that so? Hmm. I may order 20 now. Thank you for the enlightenment.

…to be fair, repugnus and grotusque were produced as special-edition figures to a much higher standard than hasbro's retail titans return deluxes…i remembre being disinctly impressed by how much they reminded me of takara legends in fit and finish, in substantial contrast to hasbro's doublecross…
Nevermore
But they're from Takara! And they don't include extra Titan/Prime Masters! Therefore, they are infinitely better by default!

The exact same thing
Digger
I think they are the exact same are they not?
