He doth speak the truth. This guy looks so very COOL! I'll have to find a way to get him on Day 1 too. Looks great, a beast-ish robot mode and an excellent alt.

Is there any chance that the treads can be stowed away in robot mode? That's the weakest point for me, I prefer robots who can store their weapons rather than be forced to hold them all the time.

Unlike last movie, I don't have the $$$ to get as many figures. I will get this guy though. :grin:

People like this? Really?

If he walks on 4 legs in the film I will like this more but seeing as he clearly has a humanoid waist that suggest he will walk on 2. The toy seems to rely upon the back legs in order to stand up. He has no feet, just poles. Good Alt mode though.

Are you sure the feet are transformed correctly?

News Credits: 2 · Fri May 22, 2009 10:43 am

so far im really liking these guys :grin:

but i do have one question, and mabe it's been answered, but are they really going to call the combined form Devestator? simply because they called Brawl from the first movie Devestator. so as muc as i would want them to the name would annoy me. unless they re-release the first movie with that part fixed.

Fri May 22, 2009 10:54 am

hmm, not to keen . . .
The feet - is it standing on balarina tip toes

As for the track things, hmm, im not sure if it looks that good, im sure it will look better CGI and not made from plastic. The CGI head in the corner is nice though!

So i still have high hopes for Rampage - Where on Devastator is he?

I'm torn on Rampage. Some things I really like about him and some things that I don't. Heck, I'm not even positive if I have him transformed properly. I watched about four YouTube videos to see how people transformed him. I was pretty frustrated with his vehicle mode because of the pieces that slide up and down when the "plow" moves ... I feel like I had something wrong with his transformation out-of-the-package but it looks fine for the gallery. Not sure about the robot mode either ... it's as if Rampage is the love child of G2 Bonecrusher and Beast Wars Rampage.

The more "normal" looking ROTF figures get the gallery treatment next ... Sideways will launch tonight at midnight followed by Sideswipe tomorrow at midnight. TFA Shadow Blade Megatron and Roadbuster Magnus launch tomorrow at noon. I'm finishing up comparison pics of ROTF Bee with TF2007 Bee and Human Alliance Bee. I'm hoping to have ROTF Bee launch on 5/25 @ 12:00am and hopefully will have HA Bee launch on 5/26 @ 12:00am.

I opened up ROTF Soundwave and GB Optimus Prime. I have to say that the Gravity Bot feature is fun/cute for the little ones. It's a neat gimmick that I hope to see get used in other ways with future lines.

I might even slide in a gallery of the Indiana Jones "Mutt" figure for the sake of comparison pics to coincide with Sam Witwicky from the HA Bee set. One other nice thing about the HA Bee is that the packaging can be opened and reused for you MIB collectors. That's a rarity with Hasbro packaging but the HA packaging can actually be reused for once. Woo hoo!

Yes! his weapons can be left attached to his arms or undo like seen here. And from my understanding his track whips just clip on and off..

All i know is, this a very cool and unique figure, his alt mode is badass, and as a kid i too love all the constructicons and every kids love construction vehicles! His bot mode is very different and i like it alot to be able to walk on 4 legs and and having the tracked whips is a different but in a good way!

Can't wait to see mixmast and long haul in the gallery next, but what about Scrapper and High tower? any word about them yet???

News Credits: 1 · Fri May 22, 2009 12:25 pm

I absolutely LOVE this guy. He really reminds me of the quad-leg ACs in Armored Core, and the track/whip weapons are sweet. I can't wait to see him in action in the movie. Thanks for posting another great gallery, by the way.

I believe he is the Left Leg of Devy.

Anyway I'm really not sure about him. he looks interesting, but I'm just not sure.

I'm just not feeling the whole centaur thing he's got going on there.

so far I haven't liked any of the constructicons except of Longhaul. I'll definitely be picking him up when I see him.

Still Waiting for Scrappers robot mode. Maybe he'll be the second constructicon I pick up.

well so far, ALL of the transformers ive seen look good. this one im just not sure on, then again its still only the toy, not the actual thing from the film, and will look much better!
Also, i cant wait for Demolisher, i mena the sheer size of his alone, and how he only moves on that one massive wheel! I really can wait!

Fri May 22, 2009 1:27 pm

All the Constructicon members are must haves for me - I'm already picking up Mixmaster and Fallen just tomorrow morning - can't wait for the last pics of Scrapper and Hightower, especially the latter (given his legends-class crawling-gait). I'll pick Rampage and most of the others up at stadard TRU retail, I'm not going to go to Toyworkers' midnight sale - knowing them they just ever so slightly edge the price above retail. That said, thanks for all the great ROTF photo galleries you're putting up quickly, site boss!

So do the Constructicons merge into Devastator? :???:

Thanks for the gallery Seibs. Rampage looks like a menacing deluxe. Can't wait for the other galleries!

News Credits: 2 · Sat May 23, 2009 8:13 am

Just pick this guy up last night and he is totally freakin AWESOME! i really like the tracked whips and he is somewhat posable and very very menacing and the red light piping makes him look evern more devastating!!!
He is a definite buy!!! :grin:

Hi ... Can anybody tell me if Ramapage is going to be part of Devastator or is this just an independent transformer for the toy line?

There is a Supreme Devastator figure, but its individual constructicons of ROTF don't transform into robots!?!?!

Nobody has mentioned whether this robot is going to be part of Devastator (haven't been able to see anywhere)
Same has gone for Long Haul (voyager edition), and Mixmaster (voyager edition)

Please clarify whoever knows. (I really need to know) :shock:

I plan to buy every constructicon individually when they come out and it would be a complete shame if they don't combine!?!!?

I posted a link to my explanation a few posts back.

However I'll quote it here as a public service.

As of this writing there are 3 confirmed versions of the Movie Revenge of the Fallen Devastator/Constructicons.

A. First there is the Combining Devastator. This one is made up of the 6 constructicons, and can disassemble into individual constructicons. However These constructicons don't have robot modes, only Vehicle modes. The constructicons will be sold together in a box set.

B. Then there is the set of constructicons that are sold separately that have Both Vehicle and robot forms but cannot combine to form Devastator. These are the larger figures, (Deluxe and voyager) with more complex transformations but lack the ability to combine. Again they cannot combine into Devastator.

C. And lastly there's the recently revealed Legends class Devastator. This is comprised of apparently 7 constructicons that have both robot and vehicle modes and can combine to form Devastator. However being legends class means each robot is no more than 3 inches tall, and combined should be around 8 or 9 inches tall.
