That's pretty neat, I like. Though I would've thought it to be part of a set, like a G2 Devastator, oh well. The Clear purple megatron's a nice touch

That's interesting, I guess. Outshined by both the Microchanger and 'proper' Kre-O Devastators, though.

Can't say I've ever liked Kre-O.
To me it's always been the knockoff Hasbro 'invented' to avoid licensing fees to Lego.

With the yellow skin, purple g-string and purple chest hair he looks like a male stripper with jaundice! :lol:

I never cared for Kre-O, but I'm gonna get this. Looks hilarious.

G-string! I'll never look at Kreo the same again.

Not jaundice. Fake tan.

Yeah, I guess that would fit better. Devy being a gigolo and all...

(Yes, I know stripper and gigolo aren't the same. They both use g-strings though.)

Why does Devastator have Starscreams head? :HEADHURTS:

The lack of new head pieces is rather funny... Waspinator has Jazz's head and Spinister has Mirage.

I love that this is an homage of the KB exclusive Orange G2 Devastator. It's always cool to me when a previous exclusive figure gets an homage later down the road.

Never noticed that it was Starscream's helmet until Blurrz said it above. All of the Kreons have shared helmets. Some of them get away with it, others not so much (such as Waspinator). Galvatron makes use of Sentinel Prime's helmet, Scorponok has Sideswipe's helmet, and I can't pinpoint whose Crankstart's helmet is. Is it the unreleased Hound's helmet?

Looks an awful lot like it if it isn't, so I would guess that an affirmative.

Eh, their heads are similar enough that it works.

Anyone else able to get to the Hasbro site to order this?
Each time I try it, I get this error message.

it's really neat they're doing this, but I have no interest in it at all. If it were g1, which I know comes with a set, but, this ain't my thing. Though kreons are.

It's too bad Green Giant doesn't have Starscream's head instead of that ridiculous vampire looking thing...

If it's relevant at all, Crankstart also shares a helmet with the Autoroopers.
