I haven't seen a thread for this upgrade yet. It's the most expensive set for Devastator I've seen, but in my opinion also the most attractive. The way the kit hoists those shoulders up gives him a super beefy look I can't help but adore.

At $80, I'll likely wait for some sort of clearance situation before pulling the trigger.

Oh wow, that combined mode looks pretty good, I might get UW Devastator after all-

>That "storage" on Long Haul

Oh dear. Gravity Builder it is.

(That power fist mode on Long Haul is great though.)

The alt mode storage is funny but at this point, does it really weigh heavily on your decision? I mean, the upgrade parts are to make the combined mode look better. This kit looks pretty good. I'd like to see how the raised shoulders look in a more static "a" stance rather than the moving poses. I've had a good track record with X2's upgrades so I'll keep an eye on reviews for this.

You haven't paid much attention to Delta's previous posts on the subject of accessory/altmode integration have you?

As for me, if I hadn't got the way of PerfectEffect, I probably would've gotten this. Devastator does look nice like this.

Haha no, I can't say that I have. Lol. I'm still waiting it out. I expect 1 or 2 more kits to show up but I'm just guessing.

I've heard mixed things about X2. Your experience has been good? Have they ever done anything this large/expansive?

Yeah, mine has. Granted, I only own one of their products, the Trailbreaker & Hoist upgrades. As far as complexity, I would say their autobot clones are probably a little more elaborate than this set. Ive heard pretty good things about them which is promising. My only concern is how much weight this adds to CW Devastator. I worry about adding a lot of weight to him over an extended amount of time.

Looks like Devy is constantly shrugging his shoulders.

I wonder how long until Crazy Devy gets in on the action.

Well they did make some items for TFC's Hercules, so it's definitely NOT out of the question. But do you really want another gun or head with light-up eyes?
