For a while there, it seemed like everyone but Walmart was getting Combiner Wars Devastator, but that's about to change! Walmart's website has Devastator listed...but there's a catch, one that is a bit confusing, seeing as it's only on their mobile website via the smartphone app and not the actual .com, currently. (If anyone reading this knows of a method to make it work with the actual website, please contact the news staff asap so we can correct this and link people to it. Thank you in advance.)

With the news that even Target had posted a solicitation for the upcoming green and purple behemoth, I'm guessing that if you're anything like me, you were wondering when Walmart might post it, so on a whim I decided to scan the UPC with the Android app and sure enough it popped up on my screen. (The images are mirrored below.) Problem is, no matter how you search for it, either by name or the Walmart number, it just will not show up on the .com website. I'm sure that will change as we come closer to the release date, which is anywhere between July 29th (according to TRU) and August 1st according to Entertainment Earth and Amazon.

Until then, check out the mobile app's listing for the Constructicon set, as well as a price confirmation of $149.96

I'm caving under the pressure of resisting TT's Devastator. It's almost painful now, knowing all of these changes exist;

On an somewhat unrelated note, does anybody know what the point conversion is for sites like tfsource? is it 1 point = $1? Figure if I can't go through the likes of amiami, I might as well get a ton of points from this behemoth.
put it this way how much extra are you willing to pay for all the extra stuff saberblade listed and how much is takara.tommy's version over hasbro's ?

Well, it was more like I wasn't going to get any at all, and deal with not getting one. But I think I am gonna have to pick up TT's :HEADHURTS:

I don't think I could ever order from Walmart again. I ordered a PS3 from them and they shipped it to me in a box twice its size without bothering to pad it out at all. The thing was just rattling around in there.

TT does seem like such a leap in quality, but without knowing the price - and whether or not I'd be able to get my hands on one - I'm still going to go with the Hasbro version for now.

(Maybe I'll just keep it mint in box and, should I be able to get hold of a TT Devy, just sell the Hasbrostator on?)

No, just NO!
Why is Takara making such great adjustments to the mold?
No I have to wait for that, and I was eager to get Devastator asap.
This is major reltooling, but they went crazy with the extra combiner figures, especially Groove.
Why aren't Hasbro & Takara on the same page?
Is anyone still getting the SDCC version at all?
Elbow joints, other weapons, it's a big deal.

Nice! That's way cheaper than I would expect.

I have to say, this is an incredibly well engineered figure/figures.

When I first broke them out of the box my first thought was "damn these seem like upscaled KO's". Simply because of their size.

But then I got to transforming them. A couple are simplistic, others require a bit more work. But all that is because of how things come together.

Scrapper and Mixmaster connections to Long Haul is rather simplistic, basically just plug them in.

Connecting Hook to Long Haul requires lining up and plugging in five different points. Suffice to say, they hold well together.

Bonecrusher and Scavenger are just one point connections, solid connections though.

The hardest part I found though was the chest shield as this plugs into Bonecrusher and Scavengers treads, two points on Hook and two clips onto Long Haul.

Whichever version you go with, be it as soon as you can ... paint apps, or knees and elbows, you really won't be disappointed. They've done a fantastic job with the Constructicons.

Now my problem is ... for the first time in years I actually have a reason to contribute to the End of Year Round-Up, and it's going to be hard to decide between Ultra Magnus and Devastator.

Stop it already Sabr! I'm already in love with this , the pre order wait makes it even more difficult !

Now here is the big question, it is worth the newly revealed 224.99 price tag?

Because to me, it isn't, at all. It's the superior version sure, but 75$ for a bit of paint, a new head, some guns and a better joints is a bit much. And you all know the shipping will be a pain in the ass. If it is anywhere close to that when amiami or hlj comes around to posting their preorders, I will just wait for a discount on the hasbro version and call it a day.

Sweet merciful crap I don't know if I can do the $224.99 + shipping from BBTS. I figured shipping was gonna be $15 (dilusional!!). So $150-ish shipped for Hasbro, $180-ish shipped for SDCC, $240-ish shipped for Takara?! The "-ish" is accounting for tax/shipping. Wow. I guess I was figuring $10 more a figure vs. Hasbro. Not that it's a bad price, I'm just not sure I can swing that. I think I'm gonna go the Burn route and just buy this guy when I see him. He's amazing as is, the only time they'll be apart is in alt mode or in bot mode for a recreation of the shuttle massacre from TF:TM

Well, I s'pose we could go to the source:

So hasbro version is more screen accurate Takara have more detail with elbows I chose Takara for detail paint elbows I can live without on each single bot

Just to add a further option to complicate matters, Perfect Effect have two add-on kits for Devastator, "fixing" Mixmaster, adding elbow joints and much more:

The only think lacking is guns!
