I keep thinking, with the additional blue on his chest (which I like) and the Hasbro diagonal stripes together, TT's Defensor could have really made a more solid argument for the higher asking price.
Yeah, that's what irks me. The higher asking price here is just due to exclusivity and not due to more paint or higher quality(compared to UW Superion and Menasor).

Yeah, I always thought that was TT's 'thing' take Hasbro's figures and make them look way more gorgeous... this feel like a serious cop-out "Oh, but its cartoon accurate, so that makes it okay... right?".
You'd think that if they were going to make a whole "new" mold, mark it up, and make it really exclusive, they'd at least give it an exceptional paintjob to go with it

This makes the Hasbro molds look like unfinished prototypes.

Elbows....what a concept.

Hint: not Hasbro.
In all seriousness though, if one wants an official Devastator with all the goodies, this is the way to go. Might as well pack him in a Masterpiece box, it's that good!

Isn't Takara actually marketing Devy in the Masterpiece line?
