While I agree it makes sense to prefer Devastator in green, this set to me just looks better in yellow and black. Plus I grew up with re-runs of G2 on tape, so I suppose it should also mean something to me for that reason.
Edit: I still have no idea why the crane is displayed that way on the green Giant's display image. Maybe the person taking the pictures wanted to give a nod to the movies... *shudder*
I cannot actually picture that happening. I doubt anyone would have the pockets or the shelf space for such a thing. At least I can admire TFC's bravery, as I do not think any other 3rd party company would be willing to do something so risky. Devastator is just kind of special though, the definitive combining transformer, perhaps the only combiner worth the risk. A number of people have had to sell off some of their Transformers collection to get it, I'm not sure how many would be willing to do so twice.DJrasmo wrote:FOr instance, if you want to go with the current "FP size" collection, so you skip Herc and get Giant instead...and then six months from now someone puts out a Herc size Bruty that you just start to drool over.

It's nice to see the comparison. Once I get mine completed, I'll definitely post some pics.

Kudos to all of you who have already made the plunge ; he should be super fun

This is going to sell out. It's not going to just sit around like two neutered repaint homages to Micromasters did. This is Devastator and even the G2 yellow one isn't going to be available long.
I still have to pay for the second set but the first in in my POL at BBTS. I'm actually forgoing all of the Prime toys and most of this years Botcon set just to justify how much these things cost but they're so worth it! Seriously, I'm only getting Cyberverse Ultra Magnus until the FOC figures come out.

Everyone please note(as I don't want to reignite the argument), that I am NOT saying one set is intrinsically better than the others, just that I feel Giant will fit how I want MY collection to look, which should be all that's important if making a choice between the two.

I've preordered Giant and will probably pick up Hercules if it ever shows up at something of a discount. But I simply love the fact that I have two to choose from and neither of them is this:
