Age of Primes

Trying to decide if I need Bruticus. I didn't start building Superion and Devastator until all the pieces were available, then I plowed through them in one day through either in-store or Amazon buys (I think Mixmaster came from nerdzoic). It may be wiser to pick up one Combaticon at a time to spread out the cost. I've been seeing Blastoff, don't think I've come across Brawl.
 
I spotted Brawl just today at Target. I've had the three so far available for a while, but have chosen to wait until I have at least Onslaught to open them all and assemble them. Kinda the opposite of the slow burn I did with Devastator/Constructicons. I got to know each of those as I received them, to appreciate them more as individuals. I should probably do the same with the Combaticons. As a kid, all I had was Onslaught, so he's also the one I want most and am most familiar with.
 
I decided to skip Bruticus, though it’s mostly because transformers seem to have been hit harder by tariffs than a lot of other lines
 
I'm planning to finish Bruticus, but in terms of future combiners, my only must-buy is Abominus. Computron and Predaking are maybes.
 
TFs are 20% off right now at Target, and they've been getting the latest waves, and charging pre-tariff prices. If you wanna save a few bucks, check out Target.
 
Target's sale put me on the road to Bruticus. Here's how it's gone so far. On Friday, I saw Brawl at Target, but didn't buy him because I wasn't committed yet. That was the same day I bought Starscream at Walmart and realized Walmart and Target are still at the lower prices. Brawl was gone on Saturday. On Sunday when the sale started, I bought Blastoff with the free $20 gift card Target sent because of the online glitches. Boom, that's a free limb. I preordered Onslaught from BBTS, bought Vortex from BBTS, and placed an order for Brawl on Amazon to ship end of month. Then today I found Brawl at Target on sale for $27.99 and canceled the Amazon order. So, I feel like I'm almost $40 off the new tariff prices on a Bruticus. I wasn't confident I would find Brawl on sale, but Target doing a reset helped.

I know Pulse has Vortex, but I just went with BBTS.
