Devastator!
« on: February 02, 2015, 08:03:15 PM »
Thought I'd post this here for any who might be interested.  This year, Hasbro is doing Combiner Wars, sound like they're doing virtually every G1 combiner & then some.  Most of them will be Scramble City type(Ariealbots, Stunticons, etc. where all limbs can be interchanged), but they're also doing Devastator, who appears to be quite large, & 99.9% G1 accurate!  The only noticeable change I see is how Mixmaster is used as a foot.  In any case, enjoy the first picture!

That image doesn't show up unless I open the image link in another window BTW. I'd say the site is preventing inline linking (AKA offsite image grabs) unless you first visit it.

Hasbro seldom uses diecast on these anymore.  Even masterpiece figures are starting to go all plastic. :(

I'm sure it'll be plastic.  Everythings plastic these days, metal makes the prices shoot up.  As for as price, I can only guess, maybe $100?  It hasn't been officially announced by Hasbro, that will be in a couple weeks at Toy Fair in (I think) New York.

That's awesome! Mixmaster has always been the left leg/foot. Not sure the crane needs to be extended vertically on his left shoulder though. That looks weird.

yes that does look odd, I am use to seeing it bent downward.

This does look more G1 show with the purple in the right spots (in the original G1 Devistator combiner mix master didn't have his puple parts).

I would like to see more chrome on this bad boy.  I also take it that it comes as is, and does not seperate into the individual constructicons?

These all individually transform into Scrapper & friends.  There's just no pics of the individual bot modes online yet.  As for Mixmaster, I knew he was a foot, but I thought he was positioned wrong.  But I looked up some pics of the original, & I stand corrected.

When I was growing up I had a friend who had all of these guys and We used to play with them for hours.  These were truly the best toys.  Well that, He-Man, and GI-Joe.

Funny you mention that, Hasbro recently re-trademarked(or whatever) the Go-bots name for things including toys, animated shows, & I forget what else.  Not sure what that means for sure yet.
