We got him in stock at Argos Worthing, but the catalogue number hasn't been released yet so you can expect to see him available in Argos's all over England when the new catalogue comes out later this month.
For all you UKers, you can go to the Argos website and check for the availability of Devastator. Just click here.

My mistake, according to the website they're available now XD
But we don't have him in the in-store laminated catalogues yet, so make sure you take the number off the internet before you go searching you're local stores!

What!!! No wrecking balls? Or a little Simmons figure to place under them? Booooo
Seriously though, I thought this figure would be larger honestly. It seemed to be larger from the photos this board obtained from this years Toy Fair. For $100 this seems very overpriced. Yet another marketer at work no doubt. God I hate marketing people. The only thing I found entertaining about this figure was the fact it had a scooper for his bum. But compared to the Prime Leader Class it's alot smaller then I would expect. Hell I've seen Power Ranger Zords bigger then this in terms of toys and for alot cheeper too.
For me you have:
1.Overpriced goods
2.Hyped size
3.It's doesn't combine from the constructicons themselves
4.Very limited articulation
Nah....I'm good. I'm sure I'll find this thing in a garage sale someday in which I can re-work it as a prop for a film or maybe just rework it all together to make it actually look like Devastator. Till then I'll spend my $100 on the original vehicle Voltron instead of his distant cousin.
Sigh........At least Leader Class Prime is awesome!!!! Two swords! You just can't beat that
Laters,
Josh

Here's a spending figure on the Constructicons that do transform:
Currently 3 Voyagers (Mixmaster, Demolisher, Long Haul) @ $22 each = $66; and Deluxe Rampage $12 ($88 I've already spent).
Now if they make a transforming Scrapper, High Tower, Overload they would add another $36 (deluxes) to $66 (Voyagers).
Add that all up, price ranges from $114 to $144 depending on what "class" Hasbro makes them; more if you want to buy the G1 color Constructicon variants too.
So either way we're all going to spend about the same getting whatever version of these robots are accurate.
I'm considering the transforming EZ Collection/Legend Devastator if it gets released in the US.
BTW, I'll add balls to whatever version I buy, just need 2 round fishing sinkers.

In every series we sell each leader separately, we have Optimus and supposedly Megatron somewhere in the stockroom, though I haven't seen him and they're both under different catalogue numbers.
As I said before we're getting a new catalogue in around the 23rd so Jetfire should be in there, but don't quote me on that.

There's definitely one in Lyons Farm, probably in the others too, but I'd be very sad if you took the one in LF away from me
Kidding :p

i mean 90% of people in here are getting it plus add the rich spoiled kids and true collectors.
at the end we might pay more than $100.00 if we wait coz it will sold out in storesand double in price on EBAY if we decide to get it later hoping to get it on sale.

I'm not
Unless it goes down to £50 clearance within the next year...
Even then I'll STILL try and get it on Argos discount XD

just when it is slated for the clearance Isle..
any Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Target, and or some other retailer insider give me news of that..
otherwise, this figure is not worth it..
keep those shelves warm! it's gonna be a cold winter for devastator..
