And just because we know that we all want to see what wonders stock photography can do to painted show prototypes as we're told by ScottyP that some figures suffer from the "looks great in person but for some reason not great in photos" syndrome - we've received the official Hasbro images of all the reveals from today's media event at the New York Toy Show 2015! Let's start once again with a big green bang, shall we? Check out below Scrapper, Hook, Long Haul, Bonecrusher, Mixmaster and Scavenger, in vehicle, robot and bigger robot form: Devastator!

This is really nice because of it's scale and being an officially licensed Hasbro product. I still place it beneath Hercules and possibly even the ROTF Devestator. Thanks for sharing!

Long Haul had his shins blown off by a machine gun in the war.

So the robot modes are trash...Oh well. Vehicle and combined mode are insane and Im okay with that. He would probably be displayed in only those two anyways.

I assume you could do a better design? Be our guest. Humans! The right of all sentient beings. No pleasing them at all.

Hook's shoulder is kind of a problem with the durability. Hope it won't break. Otherwise, they all look AWESOME updates!

I think the robot modes look okay, but hate the elbow joints so very much. It makes the forearm look floppy and incomplete. I don't mind the hollowness or the odd proportions, but those tiny limbs hanging off massive shoulders just kind of loses me aesthetically.

Still gonna buy him for that combined mode, though.

the individual figures are a bit disappointing, but I think we're all here for the big guy himself anyway, and he looks *amazing*

Long Haul would take a bullet for his grandson, but not in the face. That's how he makes his livings.

I gotta say, The Constructicons/Devastator are some of my favorite dudes from G1, and seeing them like this makes me want to switch jobs to something that pays more! Wow. All of them are perfect! Mixmaster is backwards, and I ain't even mad! Longhaul looks like a dumpy (heh heh) little guy and I love it! XD

I need dis.

Long Haul saw the Grim Reaper, and he kicked him in the stones and spit in his eye, and told him it ain't his time yet.

Bot modes aren't as good as they could of been but it's all about the combined mode, and that looks

Wow these look surprisingly good. The detail is there too unlike the recent Combiner Wars figures.

The only sad thing is that Mixmaster gets a derpy cabmode again. TFC, Maketoys and now Hasbro are giving him the short end of the stick. I hope they alter him a bit before his release. All of the vehicle modes are very G1 and he looks so futuristic that i don't know what's the front or the back of him to be honest. Maybe he is mistransformed?

Funnily enough I think the thing that bugs me most is that mixmaster's barrell doesn't roll.

The individual robot modes aren't the best they could be.. Granted. Once I get all conifers I think I'll follow same pattern as my g1 displays... Superion and devy in combined mode.. Stunt icons in individual robots.

I still can't get over as to how close they are to the original robot modes most of these are.

the devy combined mode definitely follows that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts

It will probably be better than Herc size wise and maybe aesthetics wise for gestalt mode...

Then again what perception of what is better will be very subjective from person to person...

Nope, that's how he is. He actually is based on a real type of Cement Truck which seems "reversed" with the drum over the cab, a so-called "front discharge" model instead of the traditional "rear discharge".

Let the dirty jokes commence.

I need dis.

And plus, with the way they arranged mixmaster on the show floor, people could always just pose him reverse in alt mode and it wouldnt look too bad:

You know guys, at first I was a bit turned off by the individual robot modes (no front discharge from me). But then I looked at the original G1s and HOLY SH!T, this is one serious upgrade.
