He looks nice, and the fact he combines whilst doing a surprisingly good approximation of the movie model is impressive, but I wish he wasn't so...simplified. I have no idea how they would have made him more accurate/less kibbly whilst still combining though, and if I'm in a position to get him and his chums I will. I'll be keeping my ROTF Rampage though just because he's a pretty fun little toy in his own right.

I think it would have been cool to have his jack hammer part be on ball joints to mimic the organic movements he made in the movie, but that might affect his solidity for the leg mode; I imagine that, beyond being big, devs is gonna be really heavy...

Yeah, I honestly wouldn't mind a non-combining Rampage from somebody with better cleanup and full articulation. He was a damn cool design, I'd love to see him appear in something new.

Yeah his not having elbows kinda sucks again, but unlike cw devs, this one probably actually needs the structural integrity, this devs is gonna be massive and really top heavy

Plus, the rotation joint for the leg mode transformation doesn't exactly allow for an elbow joint to be there.
From what I can tell, it was either elbow joint or correct leg mode, and they went with the latter.

Trying to figure out human scale for Studio.
Cogman is soon to be in Studio Series as a redeco of his TLK toy but the Titan Master looks kinda small next to Bumblebee. Camaro Bee is 16 foot tall according to 2007 scale charts. April O'Neil here looks closer to correct height but I can't see how she'd fit in his car mode at all.

Does anyone have the Bee figure with the add-on parts and Charlie mini-figure? How tall is tthe Charlie?

They have weird locking detents that allow him to move his knee at 45 degrees at a time and if I recall his knees are sorta loose when not locked, I got the original and it sucks for it, can't pose him at all; a point that got super glossed over since he was so difficult to find

Hm I haven't had much trouble posing mine (apart from lack of ankle tilts). I quite like how the knees 'lock' when legs are straight. Mine aren't too loose either. So yeah I think I get what you mean but I haven't had any troubles with it. Oddly I only still have the figure now cos I sold it on eBay a week and half ago and the buyer still hasn't paid. I was selling it cos I'm gonna get the Studio Series version for it's silver paint job and official Studio Series status (and backdrop card). :P

The problem is that the each figure's robot mode and vehicle mode are not really in scale with one another. April O'Neil may be the right height for Bumblebee in robot mode, but the smaller Cogman Titan Master is about right for Bumblebee's Camaro mode. The aim of the Studio Series line is to get all the individual robot modes in scale with one another (more or less) and the scale of the vehicles is more a consequence of how to fit each individual robot inside a car, truck, plane, or whatever.

Yeah, which be why I took the shot with Bee in robot mode and was asking if anyone has the Charlie figurine and how tall it is (so basically Hasbro's idea of how tall humans are in Studio scale). If anyone has Charlie AND a Mega Bloks/Construx figure like April here could they take pics of them both with Bee in robot mode? If any of them happen to scale well with the cars that's a bonus but yeah robot mode is priority for display.

Transformers Studio Series 41 Deluxe Class Constructicon Scrapmetal Video Review!

Postby Wolfman Jake » Wed Jan 16, 2019 1:19 pm

Motto: ""A mountain with a wolf on it stands a little taller."

Weapon: Retractable Mecha-Fangs
Seibertron member What's Crackin' sent us in news this afternoon of yet another video review from YouTube channel TonTon Review! This time, it's Studio Series 41 Deluxe Class Constructicon Scrapmetal! This character is most famous for his role in the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen film as the hapless organ donor for the revived Megatron. Now, he's a fully fledged entry into the growing Transformers Generations Studio Series line! Scrapmetal has been promoted to a spot on the Constructicon team, forming the left hand of the mighty combiner Devastator. Scrapmetal is due out later this year in the sixth overall Deluxe Class wave for the Studio Series. TonTon shows off size comparisons for alt mode and robot mode with other Transformers figures, as well as the conversion between Scrapmetal's robot mode and his construction excavator mode. TonTon also lists off some details about the sculpt and paint job of the figure before ending with a demonstration of how to transform Scrapmetal into hand mode for Devastator. Of note, Scrapmetal appears to be a hefty Deluxe sized figure, standing not too much shorter than the already apparently robustly sized Studio Series 37 Voyager Constructicon Rampage we covered a few days ago. Ze little one? Hardly! Take a look at Scrapmetal for yourself below!



What do you make of this latest entry into the Studio Series line? Is your excitement for the eventual Devastator figure growing? Let us know in the comments below, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for the latest news on all things Transformers!

Hm, Scrapmetal looks fun. Nice in both his own modes and is a chunky deluxe. Looks like he's worth a purchase even if you don't buy any other Devastator parts (as all good combiner toys should be)

When I was at LFCC 2018 where this guy was revealed, they told me Scrapmetal is based off of concept art and didn't appear in the film. The organ donor was actually Scrapper.

tfwiki says Scrapper is part of Devastator though (the yellow digger and was in previous Devastator toys), and that Scrapmetal was 'ze little one' but the Scrapmetal toy here is based off the concept art as you say

I knew this guy was a concept Decepticon, but I didn't really remember him in the movie. Always thought it was Scrapper that gets mauled :-? . Although, he was in TLK, in the junkyard right before Megatron attacks. Think he was behind Hound or something, but he was definitely in there. Anyway, really like how these Constructicons are shaping up, can't wait for more reveals! :x

Meh, he needs to combine with a 2007 Megatron to create ROTF Megatron </sarcasm>
"Scrapmetal" looks neat, and is one of the more interesting to me since he didn't get a full toy before.

But the Constructicons I'm most interested in seeing period are Scavenger, Overload, and Mixmaster, to see how successfully they reconcile those.

I'm looking forward to more Constructicons in general. I love the variety of designs used, and so far they are turning out really cool!

I hope they keep Hightower as the sub-humanoid pet of the team. And I really want to see a leader Scavenger and Overload

Anyway, really like how these Constructicons are shaping up, can't wait for more reveals! :x
In ROTF, when we see the Decepticons on the ship, one of them is a yellow excavator that inexplicably ends up transforming into a robot mode identical to that of Scrapper, despite having a very different altmode from the Scrapper(s) we see later in the movie during the battle in the desert. This Scrapper lookalike is the one referred to by Scalpel as "ze little one" who gets killed by the other Constructicons so that his parts may be used for Megatron's resurrection.

Concept art for a completely different Construction from Scrapper altogether was later added to Scrapmetal's TFwiki page, as part of its Notes section, since it was the closest thing to (semi-)official art of what Scrapmetal's proper robot mode might look like. Eventually, on July 31, 2017, a user with a history of questionable edits moved this pic to the top of said article as its mainpic. No one caught this curious edit, and it has been postulated that this edit resulted in Hasbro looking up Scrapmetal on TFWiki, seeing that art at the top of the page, and using it as the basis for the robot mode design of this new Studio Series Scrapmetal toy.

Meanwhile, the Scrapper/Scrapmetal lookalike seen in the junkyard in TLK was an Autobot refugee hiding out there with the others, and has been given the semi-official name of "Trench" by the company who made his altmode, Catepillar, Inc.

Hey, anyone who has SS Jetfire in hand -

Is the prime chest piece that comes with Jetfire the same metallic red as on SS-05?

No the lil piece is a bit brighter and slightly more 'pinkish'.
I have anxiety, depression and aspergers syndrome so my behaviour can be erratic. I don't mean offense to anyone. Just very picky about my Transformers collecting. You're all cool! :)

Likes: Bayverse, Marvel UK G1, Geoff Senior art, '86 movie (more for style/soundtrack rather than Star Wars plot)
Dislikes: Bumblebee movie (lousy rehashed dumb crud), TFA, G1 cartoon, IDW G1, BW/BM, MP. The entire concept of Autobot Megatron

Am I the only one that doesn't care which Constructicon did what in what movie and just wants a bunch of cool figures that turn into a big, multi-colored monster?

There's hairs to be split, so you're probably in the minority (as am I). I have no interest in getting any of these toys, but I really wanna see this thing completed. It's gonna be 'UGE! I'm excited for those that are excited.
