If the hinted at Dinobots reissues pan out, well yeah. I'd accept that someone, somewhere knows a thing or two.

I will take one please and thank you.

Reissue the rest of the Combiner Teams like this and you can color me impressed. Especially the Terrorcons and Technobots. Actually, I'd rather get a reissue of the Stunticons and Protectobots before them.

I got OG Constructicons and now I'm gonna have a shiny new gift set as well.

The demand for Crazy Devy just went up...

Anyways, if the giftset box uses the rare Devastar art for the back, then I may be interested even though I already have a complete G1 set.

awsome, will preorder this set as soon as it comes up. will put my crazy devy stuff on them for my classics shelf and revert my OG devy with the OG parts for my G1 shelf

...

sorry i don't have a reason to buy a g1 reissue right now or ever, but thats probably because i never had a childhood memory of any g1 anything...

just looked up the currency conversion rates if anyones interested, this set will be $129.75 before import costs. hmmmmm may need to rethink this one

Oh my God. Oh my God.

The Bruins win the Stanley Cup and news trickles out that G1 Devastator is being reissued.

NERDGASM!!!

Now might be a good time to start looking into it, there's some good stuff there and by good stuff I mean best stuff.

Well maybe that was a hint?
As the often leader is a leg.

Wow so getting this, this + the 3rd party Devy + ROTF Devy means a whole complete sets of devy finally. Only one missing is the energon Devy, since they re-released Bruticus and Superion they should release it also.

Ouch. That's more than I was hoping.

I got lucky years back and scored a complete G1 Devstator for $30. No, it's not a KO. It is legit.

I was born in 1990 right after G1 had pretty much died in the US. Remnants of whatever my parents could find were my exposure to the series.

You probably have more memories of G1 than you care to think. Every aspect of the franchise is influenced by G1. Also, I see that you're 15. Beast Wars era is still technically G1.

energon devy was the first to be rereleased, back in 07 with the classics line as a walmart exclusive

i don't even have the money to afford it. i am too young for a job, not mentally but physically too young. :-$

$130.00? Maybe interested.

That's an opinion, not a fact.

Hot Damn Tamale Charlie! Finally! :KREMZEEK:

Takara/Tomy should release some knock-off Crazy Devy pieces to go with this.

I missed out on the last re-release of this set and was tempted to order a KO, but now I may just wait for the official release. Thank you, Takara/Tomy!
