This is why 3rd parties not only survive but thrive. Screw the third party ban, put this s**t on the front page and give credit where its due. Promoting this would actually be helping hasbros sales since takara blew them out the water.

OMG they're doing it!

This makes me so happy...

Now do I really want the Takara version anymore?

This Sh*t is so f*cking pre-ordered!

And I just re preordered my Hasbro Devastator at BBTS... I'll decide on Takara later.

PC07 is redundant with the Takara version coming out (which also negates the need for Long Haul having to partsform his arms. PC06 though? AWESOME. Not sure about the addon for Mixmaster though, as it kinda gives him 2 cabs. I also hope the shoulder pieces do something.

Like people who won't be able to spend that much on the officially modded figure. $219.99 or $139.99 + $30.00-$40.00? I know which I'll take.

Now this. This is what I'm talking about.

Even if you're not into the IDW Prowlstator gimmick (which I totally am, by the way), this really adds a hell of a lot to the look of Hasbro's Devestator. Well played, PE. :APPLAUSE:

Prowlastator? More like half-done-a-stator. Hook leg or GTFO.

Kind of makes me want to buy CW Devastator just so I could use this set.

Here's a quick video from RetroRobotRadio's YouTube page demonstrating how the new cab for Mixmaster will function, from limb mode to vehicle to robot.

That's cool. Now if there was an add-on that put the tandem wheels in the rear in alt mode...

Looks a teensy bit finicky, but I don't care

Yea, I'm good with it.

The great thing about these PE kits, in my opinion, is that they're all fairly unnecessary. The Hasbro products stand up on their own merits, but these upgrades are serious icing on the cake.

I don't agree with that, if PE wasn't doing upgrades I would've passed on the Stunticons. For me the upgrades took them from 'meh' to 'really good'.

Updated OP.

Very nice

The PC-07 is probably the one I'm going to pick up, plus the guns don't hurt either, the elbows are the biggest factor for me in Devastator. Any ideas on what the price range for these will be? I'm presuming in the $30 range, like their other upgrade kits.

by **BATTLEMASTER IIC** » Sat Jul 04, 2015 10:54 am

I'm totally getting the elbow and gun kit for my Hasbro Devy. It beats paying well over $200 in one shot.

Well PC-06 is awfully nice, but that price is awfully steep, and while I prefer the configuration with the treads on the arms, it's not a dealbreaker, plus, from what I've seen, the knees don't have any issues, so I don't get why we need a new set of them. Maybe a self given Christmas present, but it's going to be the PC-07 for me. And, not to nitpick, but doesn't PC-06 seem a bit big? I mean, you got aesthetic type/individual figure upgrades (the digger arm, the crane extension, etc.) upgrades, WITH articulation upgrades (the shoulders and apparently new knees. Is it just me, or does this feel like three sets with two of them crammed together?

by **BATTLEMASTER IIC** » Mon Jul 06, 2015 5:38 pm

I have no interest in PC-06. I think PC-07 is the real winner here. I would've paid an extra $20 for the Hasbro Devastator set to have fully poseable figures, and $30 is close enough for me. Plus it comes with extra guns

I just ordered takaras version , figured I only need the hands for devy from pe and by the time I payed for hasbros and both kits it would be about the same price anyway .
