If it wasn't for the quite reasonable price tag (all things considered) and size of CW Devastator, I wouldn't be owning any other than my MakeToys Giant Type 61. :P

Not me, I want Maketoys to keep doing their own take on combiners in the CHUG universe not revisit the past, same with MMC. All this slavish devotion to MP scale and geewun aesthetics is going to get old after a while, the two companies mentioned as well as FP are excellent at putting their own mecha style spins on Transformers designs, and I hope they continue to do that while also entertaining the MP obsession with some of their other lines.
I'm hanging to see Maketoys completed Guardia, and to be honest I'd even consider their version of Superion if they do one, despite the fact by this time next month I will likely have 2 Superion like toys already.
I find it very hard to form an opinion with just a silhouette to go on. I will wait for more pics. If its MP scale I would consider getting it as it seems unlikely TT will ever do an MP combiner.
heres a few prototype pics, more pics seen at tfw

That looks a lot better than I expected, but I'm not sold on it yet. Devestator and the bots look too chunky.
OH MY
that looks expensive.
i guess i had better stop buying food now
It looks pretty good to me. It is never going to perfect G1 but I think it looks more G1 than Warbotron.
I think this is more g1 in combined mode, but if you look at the separate robot modes, they are far from g1, all the head sculpts are way off. I don't think 5 out of the 6 constructicons have mouthplates... Then again I don't think I would be getting this (if I do) for their individual robot modes
I did notice an abundance of mouth plates but like you said, I don't think people will be buying him for his individual robot modes.
