I want this Devy, I just want him to look a little better. I guess it may be fair to say I've been spoiled by MPs and 3rd party....

Well that's because by RX logic, Hasbro doesn't make real Transformers.

A LOT of people really don't care for the G1 cartoon, you know. There are better media outlets out there than a 30-year-old show with inconsistent animation and pedestrian plots and characters.Rated X wrote:Theyre willing to erase the G1 cartoon from their minds just to accommodate a Hasbro business decision.

Carnivius_Prime wrote:I'd be interested in a CW Predaking though. Probably not this size as I don't go for the large figures (or have the shelf space) but I'd like a proper affordable update of the Predacons cos I always thought they looked the coolest in general appearance, colour scheme and alt-modes.

"Devastator needs a decent pair of pants!"

No, my logic is just because somebody did something first, doesn't mean they did it best.![]()
Its just funny how many people are sugarcoating the size and forcing themselves to like it just because Hasbro made it. Ive never seen so many fan made theories on why devastator is bigger than the other combiners. Theyre willing to erase the G1 cartoon from their minds just to accommodate a Hasbro business decision. This set of pictures made every penny I spent on Hercules and upgrades worth it. ($750-800) Hell, I would have dropped a grand before trying to sugarcoat this oversized mess and shoehorn him into my collection. Thats just my opinion. Feel free to disagree, I know many will.

Or some of us just don't care about scale, at least when it comes to this particular toy.
Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean that there is something faulty with their logic. Not everyone is "sugarcoating the size" or "forcing themselves to like it."

Limited run, more paint apps and chrome detailing? You bet it's going to be more expensive.
primalxconvoy wrote:I REALLY hope Takara makes a smaller version with better paint apps. That thing is far too big to fit in with CHUG, and too simple to fit in with masterpiece (a bit like Combiner Wars Megs and the seekers). Plus, it's too big for Japanese homes and thus, kids.
If not, then I might actually buy my first 3rd party combiner, Green Giant, as I think (please, someone, post some comparrison pics!) it's in "scale" with the regular Combiner Wars gestaults, right?
Could this be the only combiner that people will buy SMALLER knock-offs of?
It just seems that the team behind this designed it in isolation from the combiner wars teams (possibly straight after Metroplex) and then, at the meeting, they came in just after the big combiner wars demo and were like "uh oh..."
I think Hasbro have really dropped the ball here. I don't think kids will buy (all) of the toys (as they all look "the same") individually, and the price of such a huge toy will put parents off. I also think most collectors are either on the fence, or will just get a third party for this combiner instead.
Hasbro showed that they couldn't even get Metroplex right (just look at the awful, stunted ramp, which the G1 team managed to get right), so I feel that after this, we won't be getting any more giant robots from Hasbro, which is a shame, but only Hasbro's fault if it is true.
