Maketoy's is way more accurate than the TFC, the only thing TFC's has over Maketoy is the size. If you go back & look TFC's has a lot of the red detailing on their head & it was only their visor's & here/there on their chest. So far Maketoy's doesn't have that & more then likely won't, 2nd in the cartoon you were able to see the treads of Bonecrusher & Scavenger when they merged but TFC took that away, 3rd the head on TFC isn't cartoon or toy accurate especially once again with all the red highlights in & on the head only red he had was his eyes. If you go with merged size & the fact Longhaul does look better, the scoop on the Scavenger looks better in robot mode but Maketoy has them beat in the combined mode especially the head. They have the head looking just like the show & the toy it's just they are debating if they should go visor or regular eyes. TFC's is way too pricey for a extra 2-3 more inches in combined mode & a red gun option along with all the defects the toys have had. So no both are nice but Maketoys Devy is way better all the way around than TFC's in every aspect. One more thing if u wanna have Devy standing way over Superion & Bruticus that most of us have then TFC's is fine to but if you are trying to have more in scale toys with those 2 the Maketoys is the way to go. So I'll be lookin forward to hearing your inaccurate comment corrected by the next podcast thx.

I stand by what I said.

EDIT: In all seriousness, I think TFC is trying to capture this Devastator and doing so very well.

Not me. Kind of like Animated, a great line in its own it looks like, but at this time, not having any but Arcee and BBee, NYCC Exclusives, I can't say entirely, but based on what I have seen, nope.
