Transformers Studio Series Devastator on Display at Dutch Comic Con

Good Lord, what a mess.

Considering how long he has been known to exist and considering Overload and Scrapper are supposed to be in the next wave revealed, you would think they would know better by now.

I'm so excited and they keep teasing this, get it right and use the actual figures dammit!

I was pumped for this at the beginning but every time I see it I just don't like it. It's like it fell off the only ugly tree on Cybertron.

Exactly!

Devy’s looking way better! I’m sure once we get the prototypes properly colored (and transformed), Devastator’s going to look awesome.

I will say though I’m a little disappointed that he doesn’t appear to have the missile pods from the ROTF game like in the concept art. Still looks really cool though!

Does anyone know how big is this supposed to be when fully combined?

Personally, I havent ever handled a deluxe twin I liked. It's not a hard transformation, just super fiddly.

AKA Movie Accurate

Gosh! those arms are a mess , but at least the body looks better

The prototype colours and horrible transformation of the arms make this particular image look rather messy, but I'm blown away by the engineering and ambition that's gone into this.

I was on the fence on getting any of the Constructicons until I saw the completed Devastator, but this has sold it. Can't wait to move to NY in a few weeks and start hunting them down.

You were expecting a line whose entire point is to make movie-accurate figures to radically alter the appearance of the characters?

Studio Series in general must have been absolutely brutal for you.

Well no duh the movie fans can have it that's who the figure is for.

That's like asking if the Generations figures are to appeal to non G1 fans. (or whoever generation a figure represents like the occasional Beast Wars or UT homage)

There is absolutely no point responding to him. He's just an adamant Bay hater who only spew hate comments via the news post without ever entering the thread.
