It's RID Landfill KO.

The only one who isnt is the one whch forms the gestalt's head. He seems to be a bit bigger than the original. The rest are exactly the same size and come with the very same accessories.

Agreed. I have the Target Exclusive, and I believe they could combine in a variety of ways, though not completely scramble city style. I would wonder how one oversize member, even if he remained in the same configuration, would work...

Well, we can see from the pictures that all 4 are about the same size. That just gives him a longer torso. The connecting ports are all that matter with this toy and if their sizes are unchanged, then he would still connect.

If memory serves the three interchangeable limbs meet in the middle with the head bot connecting in front or back. It has been years since I fiddled. I should pull him out and check it...

O great... #-o

Right when I'm on the lookout for the real Buildmasters.

Their method of combining is certainly unique: rods flips out all three limbs in vehicle mode and connect in the middle, with Wedge locking the whole. The one forming the arms splits up, while the other two forming the legs just turns

Always thought the Target Constructicons deco was the best colors ever put on these toys.

That makes sense as it was an homage to the G1 cons...

You gotta admire the coloring on that head though. The purple Scavenger though... How hard to find is Devie Landfill anyway?

loose, they appear to go anywhere from 30-70 bucks. only one listed right now is MISB for 100. if you stalk your prey you should be able to score one for a decent price
