$21.95. Not too terrible considering it is a BIG head with LED

EPICCC (three c's to convey just how epic it is)

Now I really want Hercules.

I knew these were coming eventually. I want it but it looks rather small :-?

News Credits: 129 · Sat Feb 11, 2012 2:49 pm

Looks mad-shitty on Herc. >:oP

Easy pass. Never liked the shape of the G1 head at all.

I'm happy with the head he's got.

Meh, the Hercules head looks so good on it already....this piece just seems to fall by the wayside. Seems a bit too small and something about it just doesn't sit well with me.

Sat Feb 11, 2012 3:06 pm

Not necessary.

Anyway wont someone else come along with another one in a month that's the right size and costs like $10 less.......? :lol:

Same head model they used for G1 Devy, but I really don't need Hercules to look like that. I'll pass on this one.

This looks more like a downgrade than an upgrade.

This isn't 100% on topic but like, anyone know how this costs half as much as the Predaking head they did? I mean, both these heads should be about the same size, both have LEDs, but the Predaking head's a helmet, it's hollow from the inside, so if anything it should be cheaper! :oops:

I belive we are witnessing the reaction to lessons learned. CD hit a home run with the power parts for G1 Devastator, but since then, most of their products are aesthetic only. No added function like the Devy thighs. My guess is some of their products did not sell as they aniticipated and are now adjusting their prices. Humble pie.

Don't need this. I'm fine with mine as is.

News Credits: 1 · Sat Feb 11, 2012 4:24 pm

Just when I thought I was out ... they pull me back in!!

After their crazy G1 Devy ride (that wound up being useless thanks to Herc and Giant) I'm almost loath to give them more of my money. But ... this is exactly how I think Devestator's head should be.

Maybe I'll wait a bit and see if someone else offers another option.

Edit: Actually, looking at it, why isnb't it on that bar Herc's head site on? I notice Dr. Crank isn't tabbed in where the "neck" should be ... maybe it isn't very compatable with Herc after all...

This don't surprise me one bit, next is a more G1 accurate rifle. :))

TESTIFY!!!

If it was the same TFC style head but with a light up visor, then I will buy it. >:oP

Sat Feb 11, 2012 6:07 pm

The price seems fair and I think the size looks perfect. Everyone wanted a more G1 accurate head, and here it is. Why so much complaining?

I kinda feel ripped off afetr staying with them on their G1 upgrades.

Plus, take a good look at the picture. The heads doesn't sit where the regular head site; it sits where the "arm" is supposed to sit.

I really got to bring up a couple of points to the haters...

It doesnt get any more G1 cartoon than this. The current Hercules head sucks. Now you get a chance to own a head that is cartoon accurate. Whats the problem ??? If it was too big, it wouldnt fit inside Dr. Crank, now would it ??? And if it is too small, whats wrong with getting a little head ??? =P~

I have never bought a Crazydevy product before, but this will be my first. After spending $600, whats another $25 ??? Nobody who owns Hercules should be complaining about the price of this head. :BANG_HEAD:

Seconded, you just cannot say that $20 for a Supreme sized head (With light up eyes!) is too much when you paid $600 for a Supreme sized figure, and if you didn't buy the $600 figure, then just ignore this!

Also.

Well played. :lol:

Ok, so lets get this straight........3rd parties are now "upgrading" other 3rd parties' products? And this isn't a joke? I'm speechless. I don't know whether to laugh out loud or tremble in fear of where the 3rd party market is going to end up. When's the $1000 3rd party Fort Max coming out? And then the $200 Crazy Devy Head-Master upgrade follow up?
