Oh yeah, no worries... I'm open to reading peoples' opinions, but the amount of influence it will have either way won't trump my own preferences.
I think the sheer size of this guy is awesome, but the look itself has me sold.
I LOVE that head sculpt!!!!

Yes, for me the left foot looks a little small.
Yes, the back isn't the most attractive.
But all of the other proportions, the kick arse head sculpt, and the overall G1 look have me anticipating the release date.
Aside from Long Haul, I dig the bot modes. They are G1 enough for me in terms of looks, and are still a huge step up from the original toys.
No, I'm not saying G1 important for everyone. I'm just saying a solid G1 look is important for me.
I will buy this. And I'll enjoy the hell out of it!!!!
Don't let the naysayers discourage you bro! Get it while it's at SRP and available.

Not loving the unpainted treads, makes them look unfinished or like a QC reject.

Blame CW Megs for the working treads. Gives the fans to high an expectation.

That looks pretty decent next to MP Prime, and should look even better next to CHUG deluxes and voyagers!!
Can't wait for this!!!!

Looks great! So um, I'm ready for that preorder on Amazon now?

I think painting the inside of the treads like the SDCC version is a good compromise; keeps Bonecrusher's legs green on the outside but doesn't look so plain in vehicle mode.


Scale seems pretty good with the masterpiece line!

But Devastator can't pick up MP Optimus in one hand.

lol. And that's why you can't win with scale and G1. Everything is so incredibly inconsistent.

It's a good thing we have Optimi of every size to make up for the show's inconsistencies when replicating a scene

Hey, Sabrblade! Good call on Titan Dev coming up to Metroplex's "belly button" (the round button on his torso.)

I can think of several legacy Primes that will fit the bill nicely here.

Screw Devastator....I want THIS!!!!!

I saw it further down the page. I see it's Iron Factory's Maiden packaging, but a Preda(micro)King would be Suh-WEEEEEEEET!!!!

Generations is really inconsistent with this. One moment it's slavishly G1 to the point of absurdity, the next moment it's all incredibly loose reimaginings.

I agree, its to the point where the only difference between this and the masterpiece line is the quality, not necessarily the scale or design.

After the comparison to the other combiners, this is exactly what I've been looking for.... comparison to MP10. Safe to assume a similar size scale with Gen. Leader Megs too. I'm definitely going to get this guy now.
Considering the considerable strain on my wallet, I'm going to skip Superion, Menesor and all and get only Devastator. (That's the plan.... anyway!)
