CrazyDevy - G1 Superion Upgrade

Interesting...

Well, I'll be interested if they found a way to add about 30 pounds to this figure. Anything to take away the malnourished look the Superion unfortunately sports...

Ok, it looks like crazydevy is going right down the line with combiners, so it started with Devastator and now with Superion, so who's next? Menasor, Defensor, maybe Computron and Abominus? Hell bring on Predaking too!

This is what appears to be an up and coming predaking upgrade.

What is good is it seems that superion has a neck, only mp grimlock seems to have a neck, I hope designs continue to include necks aswell as moveable fingers and new standards of articulation and design we are growing acustomed too.

From that pic it looks like it's using Silverbolt's head as a neck.

Is that the WST KO Superion it's fitted to?

It looks as it is the KidiToys KO, which I already had once and I could compare with one legit aerialbot I also had (and still have) and the KO is a bit smaller (I'm not talking about the WST version, it's the regular one, which is smaller than the original one), so I wonder if crazydevy used the KO to create the add-on, because if he did it won't fit on the original one... My legit Fireflight didn't fit with the KO Silverbolt dut to being slightly bigger.

I hope they didn't use the Devastator KO to make their accessory set.

I hope they can make something for Menasor. He's my favorite, but I don't have the gestalt bits.

i am really excited to what else these guys can bring to other combiners as well

wow just when everyone thought it was over here comes something new looks great i am intersted in to how it hooks to the body though doesnt superion head just slides into place not clik on to plack like devastator, or menasor, maybe defnsor to.

not to be negative or anyhintg i like igear i think have some of there products but when it comes to igear they come up with alot of iedas and cant stay commited to work on on e thing at a time which could be why they never release anything by there appoaximatly relases date, thats my theroy.

so who really knows when we will ever see more pictures of that predaking version chances are crazdev might get to work onpredaking first before igear gets theres ever finshed as much i like to igear version.

Am i the only one getting sick of all these flippin add-ons?

They seem to be pretty compatible with the real thing. I have a beat-up G1 Devs, and the CDMW-01 (head) & -02 (thigh/waist) upgrades fit really well on them... very snug.

I actually enjoy quality add-ons... they bring new life to old toys! I don't think I've picked up my G1 Devs off a shelf in ages until I got the CrazyDevy upgrades, & I love the FansProject stuff for UM & upcoming Bruticus Maximus sets.

If this is all there is, I'm gonna have to give it a pass. I mean, it lights up and all, but it's not cartoon accurate like the G1 Devy head.

I like the add on stuff even though I don't buy them. A lot of it looks cool, and I think it's neat that the parts exist for people who want them. That being said, I get bored when the big toy news (seemingly) everyday on here is the pre-orderability of some new add on piece instead of new official stuff or the Botcon set or whatever else. Hopefully, Toyfair will bring us new pictures of new products.

I think Devastator feels a bit betrayed at the moment. Seriously, it's cool. But I don't have a G1 Superion. So pass.

Doesn't work with the set. I've tried. Bought my KO years ago when I first started collectin ... I guess piecing one together will be my next "project".

The only problem I've got with this is that I have no G1 Autobot combiners yet. Crap! I kinda miss only having one add-on group to keep an eye on but if CrazyDevy keeps it up, well I'm interested. Again, crap!

I think you're right there bruv, oh well. If you guys are right and they are using the KO's for scaling without realing the size differences, that would be crontraversal, or maybe they just think that most people hav ethe KO's now as the market got so flooded. By the way does anyone know or have a theory of why the KO producers went to all the trouble of reducing or increasing the KO production sizes buy just a fraction, I can't imagine it be away of getting round copyright as they are different from thoriginals due to size.

cool it would be great if this custom would also be add on to rotf superion i mean with fansproject up great kit n this head mold it would look more g1 thats something they sould th ink about
