Warbotron WB01-B Unofficial Brawl Images

I certainly would like to have all the parts, hence why I inquired about the missile pods. It seems that those parts may not be present if the set is bought from other sellers or said sellers cannot guarantee a way to get those parts if you do purchase the set from them.

I bought mine fairly recently from BBTS and they've started including the pods in the shipping box

Is the five figure boxset of the set a reissue? It seems like it, since the single releases appear to pre-date it. If I were to obtain this particular set, does that mean I should be prepared that it would not include the missile pods for Fierce Attack?

Also, it appears that the set is sold out on BBTS. Any idea if they might restock it later on down the road? I have no pressing need to get the set now, but it would be nice to check for availability.

The set is indeed a reissue. The pods will be included via a separate baggy if purchased from BBTS.

They've restocked at least once, I'd keep an eye on the listing.

It's been quite some time since I looked at the instructions so I can't remember if there's an "official" way to combine all the accessories or not. I think my launch pad configuration came from a combination of an emgo review and just seeing where things could plug in.

Same here ^^
But it was on the grey's official prototype pics, for the launch pad.

You can use them for shuttle's lauching base :

Of course, there are many other pics to discover along this (long) thread  

Thank you! I'll have to really dig through this thread.

So, I got this in on Sunday (thanks FedEx!) and WOW. I love this set! I love it!

Now, what the heck do we do with the hands, feet, and gun?? Why does the gun transform? O _ o

Is still a nice looking Bruticus

If only someone could fill/re-do his arms to update those elbows

You wouldn't have happened to see how much stock was left when you made your purchase would you? I just sent them an email about the issues I had, but if I click on the item from my order page it goes to a 404. I'm not sure if they ran out of stock or took down the listing while they figure things out. I'm guessing the the latter since older sold out listings can be accessed if you still have the link even though they don't show on the product page. (Fierce Attack, older set with X-Ray).

Here are some pictures of the misassemblies on mine.

Got my replacement parts in from BBTS and installed them a while back.

Just got mine from BBTS today, and other than sanding down the tabs on Blast-off any other common issues with this batch I should look out for? Also any advice on how to sand down the tabs would be appreciated as this thread is a little too long to dig through

If you're talking about the combiner tabs, you can also just unscrew these three screws and take the tabs out.

got this set after YEARS, I paid like 150$ for the whole set, just a quick opinion about this set
first of all WHAT THE HELL IS DATED? please, help this silly stupid collector WHO DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THE FK IS DATED because I've seen the same stupid dumb word being used to trash talk about great figures over AND OVER AGAIN, WHAT THE GODDAMN HELL IS DATED FOR YOU? what is modern? tell me please, what is modern? a, ER Seeker with 2005 engineering oversized is modern? tell me if you say WARBOTRON IS TRASH DATED MMC BRUTICUS IS SOOO MODERN! a literal overengineered lego brick like MMC Swindle is modern now because muh G1????? that's modern to you? details and style are dated for you? please answer, ANSWER COME ON, TELL ME WHAT IS DATED WHAT IS MODERN, if people love to trash talk about this set and Hexatron there must be a really incredible and irrefutable answer.
second, people say that this set is bad because it has QC issues, news, EVERY SINGLE TRANSFORMER FIGURE SINCE 1990 ISN'T PERFECT, your 400$ MP44 comes with issues, your 400$ FT Thomas has issues, your 900$ TW Devastator HAS ISSUES, what's new? what's the horrible sin that this set has committed? and of course, NEWS, if your loved FT/MP/TW figure has issues, you'll pay for it, and wait! even your MMC figures that have issues, you'll pay for it, and you'll wait MONTHS for replacements parts, but how cruel and horrible from Warbotron to give you FREE replacement parts! how bad! we should never support this company ever again!
final words, I hate stress marks, I sold many many figures because they had stress marks, my Onslaught has super small stress marks (the kind that I hate MOST) same with Brawl, little stress marks in some hinges, they look like natural stress marks (just like SS Blackout's stress marks, and I've bought and sold that figure 4 times, I really hate stress marks) but you know what? I don't even care! because opening every single Warbotron box was like opening a Christmas gift, you can build a giant poster with the boxes! and inside every box, you'll find replacement pieces in bags, collectible cards, even comics! and finally, a great figure with TONS of accessories, that's how I felt after opening all of them, like a kid opening a gigantic Christmas gift, not just figures, I got the whole package of everything that I love, I always said that EmGo is a little crybaby, after seeing his miserable review of Warbotron I'll say it again, imagine hating this, just imagine how sad your life must be to say "REEEE I HATE STUPID CARDS STUPID COMICS STUPID BOXES STUPID REPLACEMENT PIECES GIMME A PERFECT FIGURE DESIGNED BY GOD TO HAVE 0 FLAWS!" that, that's just sad to listen, I'll post more pics later, honestly, if the collector community hate this set so bad like most of people say in this very thread, they deserve things like ER Arcee such a modern figure!

WB Brut has a great aesthetic, I love their take on it! With that said, I love the Zeta even more. Maybe the modern is with the pantsforming?? The pants make it feel more solid. I don't know either about modern or outdated. But I like the smooth G1 aesthetic about Zeta. So I use Zeta as the Combined and the WB as the individual bot/alt mode.

I think he's a very nice design, but the thigh gap elbows are a bit unsightly
