This image comes from Weibo user NOTRAB, and not only shows us the art of Devastator, but also confirms the size classes for the remaining bots that make up the massive combiner-they can just be made out in the blue graphic showing each of their names. Overload (lower torso) and Scavenger (upper torso) will be Leader Class figures, and Scrapper (right arm) and Mixmaster (head and shoulders) will be Voyager Class. These remaining four figures aren't set to be released until 2020, so we still have plenty of time to see them in toy form.

Well by single figure MP standards, that's not bad.Yweggo wrote:Two Leaders at 50 usd, four Voyagers at 30 usd, and two deluxes at 20 usd, means he's gonna be 260 usd(before taxes/shipping/markups/whatever else). Good thing he is spread out over two years.

Yeah that's been bugging me too.
Hightower seems to not only be an early mock-up in Devastator's pic, what with the Yellow Crane and rubbery cabling, but is also attached BACKWARDS.
That scoop sticking out of the outside if the arm is meant to be Devastator's LEFT THUMB, giving him 4 digits on his left hand, just like on his right. And the Crane sticks OUTWARDS on his forearm. Also because of that weird configuration, Scrapmetal seems to attach much further out than he's supposed to, which is why Devastator's Left Arm looks so much longer than his Right. They're supposed to be the same length according to the instructions.
o.supreme wrote:To actually be *movie accurate* however, wouldn't Devastator make more sense to be made up of nine 'cons instead of eight? I mean, I don't expect to see the infamous wrecking balls, but I also don't understand the logic behind making one arm out of two components, and the other, out of just one...
Actually, the arms ARE (mostly) accurate. In reality, Hightower should be a Voyager and Scrapmetal a Scout (or even smaller) figure. Also, in the movie, Scrapmetal, or WHOEVER that little guy was, was a small Bulldozer, not an Excavator.
The inaccuracy actually lies in Devastator's Left Leg. Rampage should be much closer to Deluxe sized (and Yellow) and form the lower half of the leg. Meanwhile, the forgotten Ninth member was a Yellow Dump truck (a different, smaller model from Long Haul) that formed the upper half of the left leg.
My guess as to omission was either stability issues, or no one on the design team was aware of the 9mNinth members existence. Pretty much all the concept art and media in general omit him. His single appearance, as far as I know, was a few seconds during Devastator's combination scene in the movie.
Still, I expect we'll see a Yellow Rampage repaint down the road to further the accuracy.

The extra scoop I think is just a weird photoshop error, but the cabling I'm not so sure of. Maybe a part from Scavenger that you connect to Hightower for combined mode?

While this toy only ships within Canada (including Quebec, yay!), it is possible for people outside Canada to ship it to their address though a shipping forwarding service (as it is for any item that doesn't ship to your country).

Early 2019
Rampage: Voyager
Scrapmetal: Deluxe
Late 2019
Long Haul: Voyager
Hightower: Deluxe
Early 2020
Scavenger: Leader
Overload: Leader
Scrapper: Voyager
Mixmaster: Voyager
Better save up for the latter half, especially since it will come all at once!
