According to tfw2005 Devy is a new mold after all

Just got great news(referring to Titan Devastator) from my supplier:
- All new mold
- Awesome
- Huge
- Box are metroplex sized
- Combination of voyagers and 1 leader (the number of bots inside the box are not confirmed yet - sorry for the mess)
- green
- sdcc will be yellow

I guess Longhaul or Hook will be the leader class. Though it will probably be Longhaul since he will have to take the weight of the other five. With each new bit of info I get a bit more excitd for this guy to be revealed.

Hurry up and reveal this guy already. The suspence is killing me.

I was thinking the same thing too. Depending on how it transforms that could be a solid wasit/torso section. My question now is will we see it at retail after Wave 2 or will we have to wait for it to premier after SDCC?

Honestly, I think we'll have to wait until after SDCC. The "G2 Yellow" version is not a "Must Have" for a majority of collectors. It's more of a curiosity. It's not a draw like the "G1 repaints" of the AoE Dinobots or a "premium" version of Metroplex with chrome, shiny stickers, an extra gun, and a set of decoy figures. If I were Hasbro, I would want to get people excited for the mold and bank on enough fans wanting to get some form of it sooner rather than later that they'll buy the less desired SDCC version not being able to wait for the much more desired "G1 Green" retail version later in the year.

I'm a little most younger than most G1 fans, and I grew up with the European non combining Yellow & Grey Constructicons. Yellow devastator is my childhood devastator. I'd definitely consider picking him up.
