I swear, if this does happen (but I am still skeptical of it) it will be hard not to buy it a 2nd time as a set and have either 2 combined or have 1 combined and 1 with all the bots individually (this is the only combiner I would say that about, he is my favorite).

I hope they mix things up significantly though to justify the fun

I passed on the individuals, as I don't care for the character and I think the combined mode is horrendous (both screen and toy) even if the individuals are pretty nice pieces, but if the set is for real and if it's green and purple, I'll definitely be tempted.

I really hope for no green and purple. Keep those dang colors off of movie Devastator!

hear, hear, D-Max! I don't want that on a movie Devastator. Gimme my mix of colors!

[SpikeyTigertron]

Deva-skittles ftw. I feel like the unified tranditional colors just don't sit well on it... Now... Oddly enough... I could dig a yellow/black CAT(erpillar) colored Devy.. guess that'd be G2. But the traditional Lime Green and Purple? Pass.

[Rodimus Prime]

Hmm, yellow and black? I could go for that. But how would it be done? Would some members be yellow and some be black? Or would they all have yellow and black on them? Also, even with the homage to G2, yellow and black would make them look like Tonka toys.

Not to mention it'd basically be Devastator wearing Bumblebee's deco.

Scarily, to Hasbro that might actually be a selling point.

[blackeyedprime]

Might be interested in the box set, def more interested in green and purple as he's just going to be for ecto prime to bust even if combined modes a bit crap.

[ZeroWolf]

Rumours aren't indicating a green and purple set I'm afraid

[LinaNui]

I really hope that this set is just a slightly repainted set with extra add-ons to give him the wings, tubes, missiles, and cheeks. Also, I am really hoping that it comes with a different bulldozer figure to replace scrapmetal as the hand. I will be getting this kit as long as it is not a G1 colored or call back to G1. Movieverse and G1 are separate things and I wish Hasbro would leave it as that. I respect G1 for starting trasnformers, but I think hasbro needs to stop making everything G1.

One-Thousand times this ^^^

[blackeyedprime]

I prefer film colors on film toys for the most part but if hasbro ever #releasetheG1headscut then it might solve 2% of what was wrong the baynus films :p

So, I am all but certain Fedex has lost my Scrapper. No update since he left a facility 5 days ago, and he was shipped 2 weeks ago and was only 230 miles away. I'm so furious with Target right now

Bumble-stator... MAKE. IT. HAPPEN.

Would it be worth checking a Target (or Walmart) for a brick-n-mortar one... then file a complaint with Taget.com?

Alternatively, could it have gotten porch poached?

I think all mail services are being ridiculously inconsistent these days due to people ordering a lot online for obvious reasons. I had a similar situation with an order I placed for the blue Transmetal Rattrap where it was in Iowa one day, then missing for 4 days, claimed to be "In transit", then missing for another week before finally showing up. Hopefully yours gets there soon enough. Optimisticly, I'd say you should get an update either today, tomorrow, or Thursday, just so they let you know it exists, but if they don't I'd definitely file a missing/lost package

I agree with your views completely. Well, except the actually buying the boxed set thing, since I'm only one away from completion.

We already have Prowlastator (even if it involves 3P), so it's not a huge stretch.

I saw Scrapper right before Sentinel shipped about a month ago, but I passed since he was expected to ship any day at that time. I might have to start checking here soon again to see if he comes back (they were gone the next day from the Walmart I saw them at)

I filed a refund request last night with Target and was immediately given it, so if he shows up at this point, it'll just be like "cool" and if not, probably after we break into June I'll hunt for him elsewhere

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Look who surprised me and finally showed up! Looking forward to cracking him open

[Ig89ninja]

So, thanks to how long he took, you basically managed to get him for free? That’s quite the deal if you can get it

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Yep, full refund, so Scrapper was basically free!

I need to take some pictures, but hot dang is he a cool toy. That transformation was super intense the first time doing it, wow!

Glad Scrapper did finally arrive, even if it was late! I'm not sure if it's my favorite of the Constructicons I have, since another competitor recently arrived, but it is really good.

Rampage is still my favorite, and i have no problem getting that mold 3 times if it comes to that.

Right now, My list of Constructicons in terms of how much i like them is:

1) Rampage
2) Scavenger
3) Mixmaster
4) Scrapper
5) Scrapmetal
6) Hightower
7) Long Haul

None of them have really been bad in any way. All have some really strong points, and i do greatly enjoy all of them. and the diversity is fantastic, they put CW/PotP to shame. I love them! They have truly killed this set so far.

I agree. I'm halfway through (got Scrapper and Scavenger a couple of days ago, missing Mixmaster, Skipjack and Overload) and I really like the set so far.
Considering how they should look in all the modes, for the price range, and with partsforming kept at a minimum, they nailed the set.
It would have been a lot difficult to make it better, and a lot easier to make it worse.
