We've received official images from TakaraTomy Headquarters, showing off a duo of their new figures, TF2 RD-19 Shanghai Attack Demolishor, and TF2 RD-21 Desert Combat Rampage. Shanghai Attack Demolishor is a white version of the original Demolishor, while his counterpart Desert Combat Rampage is a red, and movie-accurate version compared to his yellow predecessor Rampage. Take a look at them in the pictures below.

Desert Combat Rampage




Much like the other recent TakaraTomy releases, for example the well publicized Buster Prime, we are unsure if these will be integrated into Hasbro's marketting. Stay tuned to Seibertron.com for more updates on these figures, and for the fastest news on the net!

you can always paint it

Their regularly colored incarnations have been shelfwarmers here in my area. I don't think changing the colors would make that much of a difference.

Desert Combat Rampage?
Cool.

Edit: I hope Hasbro releases it here.
If they're trying to be more accurate, they can't deny us this.

In order for Rampage to be completely movie-accurate, his shovel needs to be primarily silver.

Not to mention a modification for the Jackhammer mode and a gun.

I can honestly say that I really like Demmy in the white repaint.
The red rampage not only should have weapons, but fix his arms/elbow articulation as well.

[GuyIncognito]

I love the white Demolisher, but Rampage just doesn't look right in red.

[Nemesis Rodimus]

If they is released in the US they will be mine! Skipped over the first versions, but these are almost perfect. When I get them, I'll pose Demolishor with Legends Prime . I'll also pose Rampage with whatever Bumblebee I have at the time (most likely NEST).

I'm really liking the colours on these molds. Not a big fan of the names, though, but hey, that's how things goes with these repaints.

[NuclearConvoy]

I really love the Demolishor mold, and I loved his sequence in the film. I will own this so that I can have both of his "film" appearances (though one only shows up to combine into devastator). I prefer that red on Bulldozerman, but I have him in yellow and I am uncertain whether owning him in red would be worth it...as his toy is seriously lacking in arm articulation and that makes his toy so much less fun than his design could have been. If only he had elbows I would love him.

I'm also not a modder, so, I know there is a fix but it involves more bashing than I would be willing to do.

Boo, Demolishor is such a cool design and big, chunky feeling toy. I wuv him!

[Dinobot Prime]

You know, I don't actually remember Demolisher being white or Rampage being red in the movie. I remember them as the colours they actually came out in, red and yellow. NOR do I remember Devastator having a red face.

Unless someone can prove me wrong (and yes that is a challenge), I'm goin to regard these two as even less screen-accurate than the previous releases.

[Rated X]

Demolisher is a little too white, I think he should have some grey dirt incorparated into his paint job. and the head stands out too much in red, They should have done some white details to simulate the see through parts of his face that we saw up close before Prime smoked him. Kinda like the way the outlined Devastator's face in red instead of just painting the whole head red.

Rampage looks great. (except that purple glass) I will definatally will buy both of these if Hasbro makes them available in USA retail. I dont do import repaints...I consider them a monopoly.

Dinobot Prime:

Did you watch the movie on a black and white TV screen ??? (LOL no disrespect) Rampage is red when he fights Bumblebee at the end of the movie. (Bumblebee kicked his butt) This is where we saw the famous "jackhammer mode" which was really a kind of short snake-like body.

Well all I can say about Devastator's head being red is it was red. There were a plenty of chrome details as the robotic joints on his face moved but it was basically red until Mudflap smashed his way out of his face.

As far as demolisher being white, Its a pretty tough call because its such a quick frame and even if you freeze it its so dark. I personally think the Demolisher on the movie boasted more chrome and red then this new version has. But I honestly cant tell cause of the darkness.

UGH!

LOL. You're questioning me?
