Posted by Va'al Feb 14, 2015 at 6:11pm CST 40,952 views
The Seibertron.com running coverage of the New York Toy Fair is not done yet, as Seibertron and ScottyP laboriously compile, crop and re-upload all the photos taken of the Hasbro area, bit by bit, bot by bot, to provide us with an extensive look at what was offered - starting below with the big green mean killing machine: Devastator! Click on any image to view the full gallery of this G1esque behemoth, first Titan class in the Combiner Wars line.

Man, I dunno. The molds look okay for the most part, but if I'm seeing a lack of elbow articulation, that by itself is an automatic deal breaker for me. Like, if even one of them lacks basic articulation, it's not worth the money IMO

Good GOD he's enormous. I'm not super impressed with the individual bots' articulation either, but the combined mode more than makes up for that. It would be hard for Hasbro to top this.

It appears the only way that any of the elbowless arms can get elbows is if brand new arms are designed and installed instead, which could be problematic if one isn't use to removing and reinstalling pins. It looks like that's how most of the problem arms are held on.

I would pay another $15 for good elbow articulation for all the figures. I would hope that figures this size would come with that. But as I'm unwilling to shell out over $300 for Hercules, I don't have much of a choice!

Although if a 3rd party comes up with new arms, I'll be getting those.

I love how on TFW there's a thread called "Titan Devastator: Elbowgate"

Hehehe that's pretty funny. The more I look at it the more I think I'll be leaving Devastator combined and the fact that half the Constructicons are missing functional elbows won't make a difference. It would be nice, but at least they are holding guns properly when they're shooting them :D

It could be worse. They could lack functional hips and knees! At least they can strike a somewhat dynamic pose when standing individually. Though it does blow my mind that the smaller combiners have really good articulation compared to the Constructicons who make up this big guy.

The nerdsphere of the interwebz has been playing around with comparisons, and here are the results:

Compared to G1 Devastator.

Meaning that CW Devastator should come up to Metroplex' chest.

Wow :shock:

Ok looks good but the leader class figure looks like a voyager class figure and plus the hollow arms aren't really something nice to see besides that it looks good

I wonder what a masterpiece devastator would be like :-?

Could it be better than Hercules well..
... will have to wait to find out

Concerning Devastator (no pictures of the back?), I wouldn't be opposed to the shades sliding up to reveal two eyes. Looks like Mixmaster won't have a spinning drum. (funny how in the group shot his altmode is backwards.)
As for the individual bots, no elbows on a voyager is just wrong. Use ratcheting joints if you want to maintain stability. I can't argue with super scaled up US Legends. But the sum is truly greater than its parts.


My current must haves list:

1. Arcee. The TT Arcee if possible.

2. MP Star Saber!

3. MP Bumblebee w/Daniel (Spike) for Arcee.

4. MP Ultra Magnus

5. CW Devastator

6. CW Bruticus


I'll work backwards from there to see what molds I still want to grab.
After I find myself on the street, due to my plastic crack fix, I'll see what else I can add to the collection.
Great year for The Transformers fans!

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.
