Yup, they sure did. But I pre-ordered at $149.99 and they store manager said when I receive it, I can bring it in with the receipt, and apply my 15% off in store only coupon.

I'm guessing a lot of people would consider it to be Hook as he forms the head and shoulders (look at Voltron, head and shoulders were always the leaders).
But to me, it'll always be Scrapper. He's the embodiment of leadership, he literally has the weight of his team on his shoulders.
*boom tish*
Definitely going to hell now for bad jokes.
It was always Scrapper in the cartoon. He too was the main rah rah boy of Megatron. Never realized that Hook, until recently was also like the "Starscream" of the team eyeing the leadership, but then again, given his "superior" unchrasematic boorish attitude..........wouldn't be surprised.

Ironically, Long Haul was the only one of the six who was never indicated as being the leader in any fiction:carytheone wrote:Burn wrote:I got to thinking today (yeah I know, I shouldn't put so much pressure on my braincell) ... who do you consider to be the "leader" of the Constructicons
My kid mind always had Long Haul as the leader. Probably 'cause dump trucks are cool. I was surprised when I found out that Scrapper was the actual leader.
Now in my adult-ish mind I'm torn. I'm running on fumes of kid memories and at conflict with what is true to fiction. I kinda still see Long Haul as the leader.
More than likely when displayed and in my headcanon, I will continue to see Long Haul as the leader. He is the largest bot and will look better displayed in the center of the group when not combined. He also forms the core of Devy, which a lot of strength comes from.
TFWiki wrote:Unlike practically every other Combiner, the Constructicons do not have a firmly identified leader. Most of them can make some claim to leadership.
- Scrapper: Most commonly assumed to be the leader due to having the most lines in the cartoon and constantly speaking for the whole group, as well as giving most of the orders. His The Transformers Universe profile lists him as Megatron's favorite Constructicon, and Dreamwave's More than Meets the Eye explicitly names him as leader. He also has the highest rank of the bunch.
- Hook: Forms the head and much of the torso, a trait shared by the other combiner leaders. He got the second highest number of lines and certainly seemed to be the one issuing all the orders in the non-flashback parts of "The Secret Of Omega Supreme". Is clearly defined as the leader in Wings Universe.
- Mixmaster: As noted [in the Marvel UK "Space Pirates" story], he was briefly indicated to have ascended to leadership in 2008, and is seen giving the orders in "Five Faces of Darkness, Part 5" as well.
- Scavenger: Shockwave gives the Constructicons' orders to him in their comic debut as if he were the leader. [Marvel issue #10 "The Next Best Thing to Being There!"]
- Bonecrusher: Led the Constructicons on their mission to recover the fallen Decepticons from the Ark. [Marvel issue #41 "Totaled!"]

So I've been tinkering around in the collection room off and on for the past ... umm ... few months and decided to get in today.
Movie figures are all sorted, getting rid of a bunch and freed up one shelf (to be used for future Masterpieces).
Temporarily relocated the TF:P 'Cons to a pile on the floor, allowing me to move (original) RiD figures from one shelf to another, which puts them directly beneath the other (original) RiD shelf, it also freed up another shelf which had a lot of height.
Which brings us to the reason why I'm posting all this in the Devastator thread.
I took the big guy upstairs, went to put him into place on the new shelf ... nope. Too big.
So I'm looking around the room at the tops of all the shelves to see where he could fit. Nope ... just no room.
Of course while I'm standing there holding him, HE'S GETTING HEAVIER AND HEAVIER!
Then I realised that said free shelf is adjustable. Was able to drop it down a little (not much room now between he shelf and the top of Animated Megatrons head!) to squeeze Devastator in. The annoying part is Hooks boom which hangs out behind, quite a considerable distance which leaves a bit of wasted space behind him. I know it's never been done in any of the fiction, but geez it would be nice of that boom could fold down.
Now to start surrounding him with a bunch of "CHUG" 'Cons.

Photography is most definitely not one of my talents.
I'm thinking of drilling a hole in the back panel just to fit the boom through.

SWEET Burnbauer!!!
That's a bummer about the boom. Sucks when you can't get big guys like that back against the wall.
and SEE, I think that Megatron looks awesome in there. Too big shmoo big!

No, it was just some three step thing I picked up (picked a couple up actually) a while back.
They're not too bad, but I can make better ones, I'm just too lazy.

Looks nice. That comment about cutting a hole in the back of the display makes me think of those comics where my office contains the back end of a game animal whose head is in the boss's office....

I can't display MP Megatron, and even if I did, he'd be displayed with the MP's.

Because of Barnaby Joyce, maybe? Perhaps Tony Abbot? Mel Gibson?
All I know is, it's probably not because of Hugh Jackman. That Guy's awesome.
