Hey sorry is this topic has been asked before ( im sure theres others floating about). I was just wondering how much is a good price to purchase a G1 Devastator 100% in great condition and comes with instructions + box?

Thanks for any help,most of the time i do pretty good with Tfs on eBay though im not too sure with Devastator :-?

I'm not sure about the box, but try wheeljackslab.com

It's a bit pricy, but the condition is amazing. Everything I've bought from him anyway.

He might have the box. Not 100% sure. You can definitely find the box/es on eBay though.

When you say "box" is it the Japanese gift set?

Because when it comes to Devestator, there's a number of different knock-offs floating around out there, one of which comes in a box with all six Constructicons.

The box i see looks like this ( which looks to me like the real deal). Im see a few good Devastators on eBay ( looks like alot of KOs are up too).

edit: thanks for the help Elvaan, i'll have to check em out.

MIB, I'd say about 150-175.

There was a boxed Devastator on eBay U.K. last week. The final bid was £133.

Depends on your definition of great. 150-175 will not get you a MIB Devastator giftset in unused condition. It will get you a giftset that has wear and tear. Great sets like ones that are unused run in the high 3's and up. I had sold one to a guy for 400 a couple of years ago and he just resold it for over 500.00. Also, alot of sellers will claim pieces are excellent or mint when in reality they are far from it.
