Wut yo talkin about? Huh? I'm happy! I am looking forward to Devy!
Wasn't Metroplex sold for around $300.00 or something at retail? Cuz if that's the case, then considering the size of Devastator, $150.00 is a GREAT DEAL!

No, the retail version of metroplex was sold how a bit more than 100$.

I think at least at ToysRus it was around $300.00.

$100, tops. It may have been an Amazon or Ebay reseller that had the $300 price tag.

We need comparison picks with the Constructicons vs. Chug Autobot cars in bot and vehicle modes

That looks pretty decent next to MP Prime, and should look even better next to CHUG deluxes and voyagers!!

Can't wait for this!!!!

Devastator is too small in the MP scale. Acording to the Sunbow scale charts, Prime should be at Devastator's knees.

Metroplex is the right scale for Devastator in MP measurements. In MP, Metroplex would be 5 MP Devastators tall plus a bit at the shoulders.

Mp-10 is the centerpiece of my collection too. Everything gets compared to that. I love this picture.

As for MP scale? I don't really recognize it. I like the MP looks... but the scale isn't THAT different. I just compare my classics Prowl and MP Prowl... and one's just a little shorter. Too little difference for me to have 2 shelves for my collection.

Nor do I consider Sunbow to be the gold standard for sizes... For me it's more a cross between faded memories... and the original toy scales. So... yeah, that Devy vs. Prime looks pretty good to me


Personally, I can't believe just how big this Devastator is... Every time I get used to the idea, another picture shows up that blows me away.

Idon't think it would be cost effective to release an MP type Devs.

Not loving the unpainted treads, makes them look unfinished or like a QC reject.

But that's how they're supposed to look:

Generations is really inconsistent with this. One moment it's slavishly G1 to the point of absurdity, the next moment it's all incredibly loose reimaginings.

They managed that with this one set

Metroplex

Off topic! Shame!

First they are complaining about him being too big, now they're complaining about him being too small! MAKE UP YOUR MINDS!

They have. The opinions just differ. Shocking fact, that happens in the world. The trick is to accept it and then you will find peace within.

But that's how they're supposed to look:

I think painting the inside of the treads like the SDCC version is a good compromise; keeps Bonecrusher's legs green on the outside but doesn't look so plain in vehicle mode.




Scale seems pretty good with the masterpiece line!

The scale on Devastator has been spot on with masterpiece from the start. I love the way he looks next to masterpiece figures and I believe that that was done intentionally. I don't think we will never see a masterpiece Devastator, and honestly in combined mode this fills that void.

Sure lol, I am not shocked, I just wanted to point out the fact.
Whatever the case, I am exited about Devy.

Head close-ups!

[Wolfman Jake]

I love that mug!

[DedicatedGhostArt]

Head close-ups!

Looks like his head can only swivel but WHO CARES IT'S DEVY!

Well from those two pictures yeah, but whose to say what's going on in the back of the head?

He might be a mullet ... business in the front, party in the back!

[King Kuuga]

I expected Devastator to be as big as Metroplex. He is much smaller.

Why? We were told from the beginning that Devastator is 18 inches, and we know Metroplex is 24 inches.

This was at my Toys R Us in December 2013.

Looking good, but are those pegs in the back of the hands? I haven't been following this tread all that closely so not sure if it's been mentioned before.

Idk. Might have something to do with the gun mode.

I'm more interested to note that part of Scavenger goes inside the forearm!

I didn't know about the gun mode, nice addition.

I'd swear I noticed the same thing with Bonecrusher. It's great that they are basically the entire arm with a hand (and a forearm cover) attached.

[ZeroWolf]

Said it before but the more I see of devy the more impressed I get. I'll have to look in from a far though, by the time I get the money together it'll probably be only available on the net

[shajaki]

I've been pretty 'meh' about Devy this whole time... but I'm starting to think, with some great 3P upgrades he might be suitable for my MP display

[shajaki]

more more MORE PICS!

[Shuttershock]

more more MORE PICS!

Devy got back.
