Devastator is made of six robots, not five, so he should be bigger than the "Scramble City" teams in terms of raw numbers. The proportions of the combiners compared to the singular characters varied from scene to seen, or even shot to shot. Scale consistency was never in the show to begin with. Plus, Devastator has always been one of the early gestalt attempts, so it makes sense that he's in a different league compared to the Scramble City gestalts, who follow a very different design philosophy. Pit Generations Devastator against Platinum Edition Omega Supreme on your Classics shelves and relax.

A Six-Piece Combination

Alternatively, "Combination" can be swapped out for "fusion", "merge", "union", etc. and "Six-piece" could instead be "Sextuple".

Gotta love Nihongo. :-B

Doing silhouettes only works if fans hadn't already seen all the Titan Constructicons in February. :lol:

Realize it's for the Japanese Takara market. but most adult fans in Japan did see the February pics. :lol:

The teaser's hiding the deco, not the molds.

That makes a lot more sense. Google kept insisting that Roku-tai Gattai! was Portuguese for...Roku-tai Gattai! #-o

Constantly asking multiple times in almost every thread. For the bigger toys to be made smaller is just annoying.

Asking for toys to be made smaller only has merit, if it gets done all the time.

Think it's only been done twice with HasTak and that was over Ten years ago.

It's getting tedious right tsu? #-o

E-Hobby has taken to Twitter with a couple new pics of TakaraTomy's Transformers Unite Warriors Grand Scourge. He strikes a fearsome pose with his giant Beast Hunters sword, but more importantly we get to see him combined with UW-02's deluxe Stunticons! Keep scrolling to see the limb thieving evil Prime, and poke around Seibertron.com for some great discussion in our Energon Pub and the best Exclusive Galleries around!

Counting on Perfect Effect to release an upgrade here...

Me too. But if it never happens, a simple mis-transformation can do wonders

There upgrade will be a set of permanent connectors to attach to the toys that prohibit them from ever again separating from combined gestalt mode. With a bonus scorpion gun robo.

Boom! Titan class Action Master Devastator!

Or just keeping him in regular bot mode! This guy doesn't have to be a combiner if I don't want him to be...

Personally, I'm hoping for a set of limbs (don't even care who) done in colors that look like they go with him. Failing that, standard bot mode will suffice!

Re-colored Nemesis limbs would be awesome here, just as blue/purple sweep/armada limbs would be awesome for Cyclonus. That's the genius of this line - repaint potential up the wazoo! Hopefully eHobby capitalizes on that.

I like everything about Grand Scourge but the price. :grin:

You never know these days, just look at how NOT different both Springers are. I'm inclined to think it'll be signifigant enough of a difference based on their Superion and Menasor, but we'll all just have to wait and see.

Indeed!

Springer got a Japanese release?

Yep. I've got the JP versions of Springer and Blitzwing, and the Hasbro Sandstorm.

I kind of don't like the gold. The RID Laser Prime Scourge has the best evil-prime deco in my opinion.
Nemesis limbs would be great, Destructicons all over again!
