Previously reported here on Seibertron.com, we informed you that Crazy Devy was producing a second upgrade set for the G1 Devastator Combiner.

The CMDW-02 Upgrade set replaces the original gestalt's hips with a more poseable and cartoon accurate addition. Thanks to HK-TF, we now have images of the set in package:







This upgrade set is a follow up addition to the CMDW-01 Devastator Head that we reported on here.

So just sit down and listen
Girl you know we've been together such a long, long time
And now I'm ready to lay it on the line
You know it's Christmas and my circuitry is open wide
Gonna give you something so you know what's on my mind
A gift real special, so take off the top
Take a look inside -- it's my crotch in a box

Not gonna get you a diamond ring
That sort of gift don't mean anything
Not gonna get you a fancy car
Girl ya gotta know you're my shining star
Not gonna get you a house in the hills
A fembot like you needs somethin' real
Wanna get you somethin' from the heart
Somethin' special girl
It's my crotch in a box, my crotch in a box girl
It's my crotch in a box, my crotch in a box girl

See I'm wise enough to know when a gift needs givin'
And I got just the one, something to show you that you are second to none
To all the bots out there with fembots to impress
It's easy to do just follow these steps
1: Cut a hole in a box
2: Put your crotch in that box
3: Make her open the box
And that's the way you do it
It's my crotch in a box...my crotch in a box girl
It's my crotch in a box, my crotch in a box girl

Christmas; crotch in a box
Hanukkah; crotch in a box
Kwanzaa; a crotch in a box
Every single holiday a crotch in a box
Over at your parent's house a crotch in a box
Mid day at the grocery store a crotch in a box
Backstage at the CMA's a crotch in a box
A crotch in a box, a crotch in a box, a crotch in a box...

You watch too much SNL, lol. Oh wait, I mean, I have no idea where you got that from, uh yeah.

Lonely Island FTW!! ahem* I mean yeah that's neat, that'll really give MISB collectors something to look at.

I got mine last week. Didn't realize it was news or I would have shared.

Hope to get mine today.
The only thing I hate about ordering from overseas is that I have to sign for the package, and being I'm at work when the mail shows up, I always have to sign the "Sorry we missed you..." slip and wait a couple days or run to the post office on Saturday.

RE: Skyfire77

Yeah, I don't get that. Sometimes I have to sign for things, other times I just find it sitting outside my door. Seems totally random.

Hmmm...it's missing something. 2 things actually. Can you guess what they are? Yep, that's right. It needs BALLS!

thanks for sharing i missed my chance on this set maybe bbts will restock on this set so i can get another chance at it

Call me silly, but... while I do agree that these upgrade packages for G1 Devastator are cool, with all the effort and work being put into them, why doesn't Devy just design a new Constructicon set? Oh right, it would cost too much.

It would be a bit expensive, yes. Besides, seeing the oldschool G1 figures getting some upgrade love is always a good thing.

Yes, got it today! I rather like it; feels solid, the colors are dead on, Devy no longer stands like a brick.

One thing though, the way the new waist connects will shift Devy's center of gravity up and back, so an action pose is pretty much a necessity, otherwise he will fall backwards.

Here's a slideshow I put together.

Nice slideshow. I think it's a huge improvement on the figure. Although it's dissappointing that Devy can't stand straight up ... that's something that can be compensated with some strategic placement of bots. G1 Devy has always been my favorite of the combiners and none of the modern interpretations have really done it for me.

As to making a whole new Devestator set ... well, these guys aren't Fansprojects! I'm happy with what we have. Making a hugely expencive set seems rather excessive and it just might tread too close to Hasbro's intellectual property to pass muster. But, who knows? FP just might make a set for Energon Devestator as they have Superion and Bruticus. Maybe that will make the figure actually worth buying for me.
