Hmmm... interesting indeed.

Holy Crap!

you weren't kidding - that 16 Megger is HUGE!!! (you can even see brushstrokes!)

No vehicles have "wrecking balls" - yet another huge plot hole.

Pointless scene and a resounding fail!

Purchase of the the Legends class Devi is now perfectly justified for me.

It really does bring up the whole individual robot mode for each constructicon argument now. With the picture of Overloads robot. The hi res picture is already my wallpaper haha!

Overload looks like a combination of a Zeon Mobile Suit and Boncrusher. Wonder why the one wasnt given a robot mode?

Haha, now that you mention it Overload does look like the Sazabi lol.

I'm hoping that we see concept art for Hightower's robot mode now that we've seen Overloads. Before I was unsure about the legends class figures because I figured that they just pulled the design for Overload out of nowhere. So, I'm hoping that they had some sort of design to built Hightower off of.

Anyone else think Overload looks like the robot that got ripped apart to rebuild Megatron?

I am SO buying the Legends figures....

Overload could be the "little one" that they killed for Megs' parts now that you mention it.

And you can see now Devastator's balls aren't anywhere to be seen, that was SO POINTLESS! Bay, PREPARE FOR EXTERMINATION by the REAL Devastator! lol

The image says under hightowers alt-mode "No robot form". So he had no real robot-mode.

Here's a question: if each of the parts of Devastator had individual robot modes (which would've been extremely cool and probably got more tickets sold), why did they kill that aspect? As far as I can tell, it would've worked so why'd they kill it?[/quote]

They didn't kill the aspect, they just used it in a different way. In effect, they had TWO completely identical sets of constructicons involved in the same battle; one set forming Devastator and the other engaging NEST and the Autobots a few miles away. For example, at the same time Rampage is forming Devastator's left leg at the pyramid he is also getting his arms ripped off by Bumblebee in town. SO... either major continuity glitch or constructicon twins. You be the judge.

If hasbro was smart enough to make deluxe or voyager verisons of scrapper, hightower, and overload they would make more money, plus there would be much rejoiceing amoung fans! Why would they design concept art for something they're not gonna make? Just makes no sense...

And, if they did sell a Devastator that both combined and had indivdual robot forms, than Devastator himself would be bigger (if you think about) and thus more movie accurate.

Sorry about that long rant, just had to get it out
But, i diffenetly love the pics, and thanks for posting them.

So are they seriously just not making a deluxe/voyager toy for any of those guys? Why would they do that?

I'm pretty sure Scrapper will get a toy. He is in that one scene in the desert.

Eh scroll down and click on "Fly on the Wall" for some reason I can't direct link to it. Stupid Yahoo.

He throws his "Grappling winch thing" at Sam and Mikaela.

They already made Demolisher (Scavenger), Rampage, Mixmaster, and Long Haul. I could definitely see Scrapper, and possible Overload and Hightower getting toys at some point.

What I am curious about is why Overload isn't part of the Supreme Devastator set?

I cant seem to figure out how to download that 16MB hires version off of that asian website.
Little help?

Well now i recognize alot of them in the egypt fight... Who were fighting while Devastator was at large. But i don't recall seeing that articulated truck even showing up to make Devastator 0-o

REALLY? Because I remember seeing it very clearly. There's a very clear shot for several seconds of it driving before the whole combination mess starts up.

Cool.

So those who PM me for High Resolution Image, check out your email inbox.... Beware, the file quite big, 5mb. Dont blame me if your email is full.

Btw earlier of the day, i did emailed out to few guys here, but only in 1MB size. If you still not satisfy and want a 5MB, PM me again.
I only got the 5MB later of the day.

I just put a second comment on this articles, i recommend you pass the big devastator and wait for the takara , Takara has made legend class has it own individual mode and is big to megatron rotf leader class ...
I bet takara will make a new devastator that is more movie accurate like the new Optimus prime that has gun

Well here's my view (like a world peace situation view :s)
They are still planing on making a devastator with all 7 robots (voyagers/deluxes)
but they didn't have time to make it work yet so they rushed and designed
a supreme class to satisfy the fans.

Or Takara is still working on something. Hey the only thing the toyline of Transformers 1
missed was Movie/Game Shockwave, even the video game 3d models got action figures + all the
extra military figures later on in the line.

I don't think it's going to stay this way with the constructicons, I think Hasbro or Takara
are going to try more with them.

And the constuctionballs were Bay's idea, I don't think a transformer designer would put that
stuff in on such an iconic character. Wheelie perhaps...

Once you get there, click "进入http下载页面", then click the blue "点击这里下载" button.

The 5MB version I made was just resampled in Ifranview. I didn't change the resolution or anything. http://www.mediafire.com/?ohjem2tymxd

Where do the shovels come from on Devastator's left arm? Hightower doesn't have any that I see.

no wrecking balls, left arm = where did the shovels come from, looks like devastator is also a walking plot hole

They fold out from Hightower's undercarriage. They're not from a specific vehicle part, they're just there for symmetry and are hidden in vehicle mode.

Also in the movie his face is red, where'd he get that? You can look at the trailer for proof.

Who knows. It certainly helped for a more unified look.
