New Images of ROTF Constructicon toy.

Ok, that thing just looks cheap and silly. The trailer for the movie made that thing look awesome. The toy rendition just makes me sad.

Not sure if this was mentioned, but I highly doubt he'll be part of the devistator toy, or part of him in the movie. I think devistator might be comprised of entirely different constructicons....what do u think? Or was he confirmed as one of the 9 (or seven) or whatever the case may be? lol

I'm going to give them points for creativity. We've never seen anything like this before and I'm willing to give it a shot. It actually seems pretty cool when both treads are on the ground...I can see it using a roatation mechanism on its body to climb over large obstructions with the treads. Granted it's large enough to roll over most obstructions, but for large ones that its tread can't roll over, it can rotate the other tread around and onto the obstruction. Neat idea.

I think the engineering of tank treads into large wheels is creative, but this is certainly a new direction for transformers.

No, pretty sure he's one of them. Devastator was rumoured to be made up of big construction vehicles and this fits the bill. And I saw someone mention that they think this might form an arm.

Also, I've got a theory that the silver bit in this guys arm is the Mech Alive feature that will be present in some of the ROTF toys. It looks like when the elbow bends it would spin around. Wonder if someone can confirm this.

Is it Voyager or deluxe size??

I think this one is one of the toys that actually has the separate robot mode versus the actual combiner version... cause wasn't there a confirmation that there would be two different versions of the constructicon toys, ones that came as a set to combine and ones that you bought seperate for the individual robot modes? So this one looks like it is supposed to be one of the individual figures... and I personally think it is an interesting idea and took a great deal of progressive creativity to think of it...

I think we're all judging too quickly and harshly based on mis-transformed early releases. And like I posted before, Bay is embracing the concept that the TFs are alien. I personally can't wait to see what the rest of the Constructicons look like. I'm an old school-G1er, but I've learned to accept change. I say, quit griping, and if you don;t like the looks of a toy, just DON'T BUY IT!

everyone keeps whining about the scale of these figures if your going to talk about scale remeber g1 figures if thats your discussion g1 combinors where where small when they should have been into the size of metroplex glavatron g1 may be bigger than some of the g1 combinors & g1 galvatron wasnt even rmotly close to be in scale at all none of the g1 figures where properly in scale with any figure or any other future release of new transformers that will get released in the future.

i like the desgin of this ill get him but ill wait & see what the devastator set looks like i dont know if hasbro decided to rethink there devastator idead and make a good looking that has induvidaul robot modes for each figure and combines into the giant that we all know or there are going to be 2 seperat releasses of this guy ill wait & see if theres one version of devastator or 2 versions one that combines & the other that does not combine & just trasnforms.

I dunno...maybe it'll be cool in the movie, but I personally think this toy looks completely lame. I hope this isn't a necessary part of Devastator (if there's any hope that his toy doesn't ultimately suck) because I don't want any part in wasting money on this POS.
