Since Takara Tomy has released the very popular EZ Devastator, Transformers toy collectors around the world has been hoping that Hasbro Inc. releasing the toys, esp to Western markets.
Well, your wish has been granted. The-Arker just posted the in package images of Legends Class Devastator.
Unlike Takara version where all seven toys package separately, Hasbro version will be all the 7 figures in one package.

LOL Advanced Conversion Level 3? I didn't realise we were THAT dumb! 8-}

lol

I just got my Target Exclusive Leo Prime in the mail yesterday. Upon checking his box, he too was supposedly a level 3 conversion. I think Hasbro just decides what the conversion level is based on how much you'll pay for the figure.

At the risk of being a real "Gee-whun" fanboy, I would love to see these in the green/purple deco.

That said, I'll still get one!

Did Hasbro not originally envisage the Western release as a store exclusive tho' :-?

That's pretty spiffy, It's a mini version of the supreme class box

I was expecting something like the current legends 5 pack box and all of them packaged in altmode

Win, epic win!

I am so pumped for this toy! I'll explain.

***WARNING, POTENTIAL ROTF SPOILERS FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE***

I was in Sam's Club, walkin' over to the toy section to see that awesome 4-pack that came with Sideways, Longarm, Breakaway, ect. As I walked, I noticed something on the TV...was that Ravage? Well, I cried out, 'Revenge of the Fallen!' My two brothers and I charged over to the TV and watched as Ravage leapt over the fence in Diego Garcia. While I admit I was grossed out by him spitting out the tiny balls, I have to admit that seeing Reedman made me amazed. How could he exist in that skinny form? Well, we watched for a while. When Megatron was revived and chatted with Starscream on the Nemesis, I nearly laughed at Starscream's voice.

Then, as we were about to leave, Mikaela runs over "Alice." I wanted so badly to wait and see Optimus whoop Grindor and Starscream, but we had to go. I was disappointed, to say the least.

Yesterday, we went to Sam's Club again, to eat lunch. (We like their food) The first thing I did was run to that TV. There was Jetfire, teleporting them to Egypt. Then, as we ate, I hurried so I didn't miss the final battle. When I got over to the TV again, I saw Leo get zapped by Simmons tazer. Then, I watched Devastator combine. And I saw Bumblebee kill Rampage and rip Ravage's spine out. By then, my dad was watching, as well.

"We'd better go, or I'm going to want to see the rest," he said.

So, though I didn't see The Fallen's death or Optimus combine with Jetfire, I did get to see several awesome battle scenes, the PURE WIN that was Devastator, and Skids's line, "Aw, he's dead. He got all ate up!" :grin:

So, I am pumped for this toy, and right now, I'm pumped for ANY Revenge of the Fallen toy in the movie.

In my defence, it worked (in my humble opinion!) for Sixbuilder, both when he was re-issued and when he was brought to the west.

I can fully understand why people don't want every toy named Devastator painted Green/Purple. Personal preference I guess.

I call Target exclusive.

This looks perfect.

I already have the takara version so not getting this as there is no difference to me at least. Well to say this is one AWESOME figure, so to those who still haven got it yet, better grab it!

Yes. Yes. Yes. Hasbro's doing something good here. Definitely going to pick this up.

by **noctorro** » Sat Oct 31, 2009 1:09 pm

He looks great! I was looking for the takara version a while back but couldn't find a complete set. Hope I can get it of ebay, I don't think we'll see it in Holland anytime soon.

Call me crazy, but I'm guessing anyone here that actually gives two craps about the movie has probably seen it by now...and if by some odd circumstance that isn't the case, it's probably already been spoiled by now. But thanks for caring... :grin:

Well this sucks, i only want long haul & overload. And let me guess store exclusive right? im gonna say target.

by **jaws** » Sat Oct 31, 2009 2:31 pm

Must buy! Glad I didn't buy that $99 brick that is filling shelves everywhere.

I know it's a 7 figure set but I still think it takes more than 7 to make him. I keep noticing while watching the movie that the arms appear to made made up of multiple vehicles or at least parts. Especially when the left arm is forming it slams into a hand which looks like bulldozer parts.
