What I'm saying here is if someone who didn't know any TF history saw the movie and looked at the toy boxes and commercials, would he hear or read the word "Constructicon" anywhere?

1. Demolisher and Scavenger are the same guy. We do not know which name will be the final one, but given that "Demolishor" is confirmed to be the name of the Voyager toy, it seems more likely. Then again, Scavenger was the name of one of the original Constructicons (and had the same altmode as this one), so it fits too.decepticon legion wrote:First-Aid wrote:OK..maybe I'm missing something.
We know there are six constructicons that combine. The shovel that combines in that group is Scavenger. He looks almost identical to Demolishor. Does that mean that Dems will NOT combine with the others? Or are we going to see him smashed in the opening sequence of the movie (as evidenced by the Chinese street signs on the overpass he crushes) and then REBUILT to combine with other Decepticons?
I'm a tad confused...
I have this theory. Hasbro has lost copyright to the Scavenger name, so they call the constructicons leader Demolishor now. And they printed SCVNGR sign to the non-transforming version, which is perfectly legal.
The same happened to Alternators Shockblast. The toy is called Shockblast, but it has SHKWAV on the licence plate:

What do you think?
2. It's not likely that Hasbro has lost the rights to the name "Scavenger". It's one of those names that's well known enough to not lose so easily. It's like the names "Prowl" or "Ironhide". Hasbro won't lose those names so easily either.
3. "Scavenger was probably the preliminary name for Demolishor. Someone probably didn't get the memo about the name change and thus leaving us with two names for the same guy.
The name of the $100 set is called "Constructicon Devastator".Scaleface wrote:Does anyone even know if there will officially be "Constructicons" in the movie at all?

But a really big Decepticon that towers over Optimus Prime zipping around on a unicycle is the stupidest thing I've ever seen. And I thought nothing could be worse than George Clooney's flip out ice skates in the Batman film that almost killed the franchise but this actually beats it.
Hated the Vehicon robot modes in Beast Machines and can't believe they're bringing something so stupid into the film.
Millions to spend on a movie budget and this is what we get? I'm almost ready to give up on Transformers. I mean the realistic bad ass alien robot concept we got in the first film has just been negated. The robot designers for these films should be flogged. First Scorponok and now this garbage. We'll be getting tributes to Alpha Trion's beard and Rattrap's stupid buck teeth next.

I was confused about that, too. It seems like his name could be scavnger, considering all the similarities to G1, but the box says Demolisher. Does the voyager version hve "SCVNGR" Printed on it anywhere?
And another thing I was wondering, do the other six constructicons have separate versions that can transform? Or is Demolisher/Scavenger the only one who has two versions of himself.

The gears aren't actually in the shoulders, they're most likely those silver gear shafts you see in the upper arms.

No, one character with two different toys. One is the individually sold one and the other is from the combiner giftset.

That picture does have 7 vehicles, but everything we have heard says Devastator is now 6 vehicles. He's a excavator (Demolishor), scoop loader, crane, dump truck, cement mixer and a bulldozer (Rampage).

Why did you quote yourself?
Can you point out on the image where the these two shovels are on Devastator's body, as you claim them to be?
And, the Voyager Demolisher toy cannot combine with the Devastator components. Just like how Deluxe Rampage cannot either, which is why a second, much larger Rampage toy is a Devastator component.

Looking back at the picture the 2nd shovel in the photo is the right arm.

One excavator. Demolisher forms the torso. They made two slightly different versions because one transforms into an individual robot( which I have on my computer desk right now) and the other doesnt, only forms the torso for the giftset. They probably put SCVNGR on the side to differentiate between the two versions because they are indeed the same character. There aren't any steam shovel/excavator arms, that set is what we are getting and the individual tf'ing bots, for now.

yes yes i understand that he doesn't have 2 legs like the rest, but are we so use to watching our favorite cartoon from the 80's, that we can't expand our imagination a little that all robots doesn't have to have 2 legs!!

This guy does not combine to form Devastator. His other toy that come packaged with the other Constructicons (and does not have a robot mode) does.Rated X wrote:Too weird but I will buy him to form Devastator. He will go great next my Gi. But that leads to my next question....The fool who decided to cange Brawl's name to Devastator in part one really screwed up...Nowq what are they planning to name Devastator in the movie ??? Or are they just going to play dumb and hope we all forgot ???
Brawl's name in the first movie was a mistake that Bay did on purpose. He like the sound of the name "Devastator" beter than the name "Brawl". Brawl's name is still Brawl, no matter what. The Reign of Starscream fixed this error by reshowing the same movie scene where the Decepticons state their names and replaced the name "Devastator" with "Brawl".
Devastator will be called "Devastator" in ROTF. One intentional error on Bay's behalf will not stop that.
