Gotta say he looks pretty damned good in these new shots, Hasbro in cool looking promo shots shocker!

Indeed. Still not sure about the foot on the Mixmaster leg, and (based on the older photos) I am dubious about how the head looks from angels other then straight on... And I still think he might be a bit too large... But those are mostly personal picky issues. Those aside, this is a great looking Devastator for those who didn't jump on the third party bandwagon or for those who don't mind owning more then one.

Of course, still need to see his individual members... That could change everything if they suck. (Which hopefully they won't!)

ohmygodohmygodohmygod!

I have been tempering my enthusiasm. The official photo has now done me in. Hopefully this will be easily available, like being able to order it on Hasbro toy shop.

Now, that's more like it:

Click to see the full size.


No awkward lopsidedness and the treads properly adjusted to the body.

I must admit, I find the giant boat a lot more interesting than Devastator.

I am not sure if that giant boat transforms.

It does not, it's a playset.

[Noideaforaname]

Welp, so much for that.

[Va'al]

Welp, so much for that.

Working on the post for this too, it looks like there'll be a smaller figure as well.

[shajaki]

*because he should be posted on every page*



his head is small'ish.... but actually looks a lot better than the shot we got from the previous show. if he's half as fun as CW superion is, he'll be well worth it

[Va'al]

He looks disappointed.

Or maybe... Dredd-vastator?

[william-james88]

I cant read the box well, dont know if anyone can. Trying to see if there is french on it like on the recent platinum insecticon set.

I cannot read it exactly, but next to the big green 6 and Constructicons there are four lines of text. We usually see English, French, Spanish. With the Insecticons, we had Portuguese, too.

My guess is, yes, it does have French, and yes, it can be sold in Québec.

It has been a personal crusade of mine and Kanrabat's. He even set up a thread on a french TF fan site where people can post the letters they send to toysrus to ask for french on the boxes.

[Madeus Prime]

Oh that is beautiful! This confirms it, I'm grabbing Devs.

[ZeroWolf]

And now my want meter is swinging back to a full on want. Better figure out where I'm going to put him...

But that will burn a hole in Hasbro's wee pockets.

Seriously, I recall the old G1 boxes I used to buy had some french fonts.

This big bruiser is so awesome.........hopefully hollowed out parts are kept at a minimum.

Not sure if it has been established or not. But, do the individuals that make up Devastator have robot modes of their own?

they at least have vehicle modes

ok this is a close up of one of the images from TFW's coverage page originally found here

if you look at Mixmaster, his drum is going toward the front toward the cab and not away like it did in G1. Sorry guys there is no drum flipping and Mixmaster is not G1 accurate. I personally dont care because it still looks awesome.

Yes, they do

And Shajaki, what is that?

well too bad for them

I honestly don't see why the new-style cement mixer altmode for Mixmaster is such a big turn-off for people. Isn't this the same kind of upgrade that Classics-esque lines are known for? I don't see how it's any different from Classics Astrotrain turning into a Shinkansen instead of a locomotive. Or Classics Bumblebee turning into a sports car instead of a VW Bug. Or Universe Ironhide and Ratchet turning into SUVs instead of Vanettes. Or Reveal the Shield Perceptor turning into a treaded truck instead of a microscope. Or Generations Blurr turning into an Earth car instead of a Cybertronian hover car. Or Generations Straxus turning into a tank instead of a flying cannon. Or Generations Sergeant Kup turning into an old Earth truck instead of a Cybertronian truck. If anything, I'd say some of those (especially Perceptor) were more radical changes than Mixmaster now having his drum facing forward instead of back. At least the Devastator leg mode still resembles Devastator's iconic leg look. Besides, who is honestly going to be displaying Mixmaster in altmode?
