Thanks to Seibertron.com member Dread_Wing we finally get a look at TFC Toys upcoming Hercules figure, Heavylabor, in color. Up until now we've only seen this guy as a gray prototype. While this figure is unpainted it still gives us a much better idea of how the finished figure will look. Image from jeffyzhong's weibo page mirrored below.

These look really cool, but whats with the transluscent guns? also, don't they(guns) all combine at the end or somthing?

Looking good even at this stage. After getting Scavenger, I have no problems completing this Devastator. Of interesting note, the thighs of Devastator are going to be purple. It looks a bit weird in Long Haul's robot mode but lets face it, who is gonna buy all 6 of these and not combine them? They could have just gone for green thighs but whatever.

Yes the guns combine into Devastators gun. As for the screw, a bit of putty over it should solve that problem. It would be awesome if we got a little plastic plug with him to cover that screw.

Regarding the guns, this pic should help:

We will end up with a purple gun and a red one.

I just love the light piping on these guy's heads.

News Credits: 2 · by **Nemesis Destron** » Wed Aug 10, 2011 4:50 am

True, they are looking really good so far. But the real test will be the merging and if it all works and holds the way it should to start! :VEHI:

....... His legs are purple.... Really purple.

by **Rated X** » Wed Aug 10, 2011 8:34 am

Just pre-ordered. I love the mold, but Im a little dissappointed that Long Haul gets purple legs but Scavenger doesent. Sheesh, just keep it G1, it's a damn homage, mold and all. Also a little dissappointed that the grill and headlights arent painted. 100 bucks give me some damn chrome !!!

News Credits: 349 · by **Bed Bugs** » Wed Aug 10, 2011 8:59 am

I'll admit, I don't really like Long Hauls purple legs. I'd much rather have the arms be purple to give him a purple dump box on Devastator's back.

As much as I like these, i cant justify the $100 price tag for each one and that's not including shipping. I'll wait to see if FP will do anything with Classics Devastator like they did with Superion and Bruticus.

While I do like it, I have to agree with Rated X that it looks rather barren. Why not chrome the grille, or at least paint it silver? Hm.

Still, it's next to certain Reprolabeles will make sticker sheets for the figures once it's all done.

Just given in to temptation, ordered Exgraver and Heavylabor from BBTS. Still disappointed by the release schedule though as I won't be able to start building anything till the 3rd figure is released. :-(

The figure in the picture is unpainted but I am sure the final production version will have some paint apps. Chrome would be nice, but not holding my breath.

Don't know if you guys know just how much I want these guys... Or how I'll never ever be able to afford them....

Where are they at for 100$before shipping??? But i guess thats your excuse not to get them so go ahead and lie to yourself(i paid 77.90+16 in shipping and i dont even count shipping but thats me)

Where are you guys shopping where this is $100 before shipping? I got Exgraver and pre-ordered this for $91.70 shipped from RobotKingdom.

DecepticonFinishline wrote:....... His legs are purple.... Really purple.

Hopefully when it gets painted they will break up the purple a bit. I may, may mind you, repaint the lower legs green. It depends how it looks in person. Remember, there were shots of Exgraver where it looked green and blue not purple. I'm sure they will unify the colors for all 6 of them.

Very nice, for the the extent they could go. The chest is a bit of a sea of green; I'd say it's begging for some silver or dark grey, but that depends on what goes where in vehicle/limb mode.

He needs some grey on the grill and shoulders.

I aprove of this figure =P~

AT BBTS and TFsource here in the states they are $97.99 each. True, Robotkingdom has it for $77.90 but with shipping to the U.S it brings the total to around $94 or so.

I was literally typing this word for word

Im not fond of ordering items from over seas..So my exscuse for for not ordering this item is that I don't want to pay $97+..that and Im waiting for maketoys to further reveal their version of Dev..
