It is still almost two months away (if it doesn't get delayed), and with the old news topic being three months ago, I figured this could get a new topic as more finished-product images will probably be more frequent in these last two weeks.
TFYuki has tweeted images of the six Constructicons in robot mode, showing us the colour differences, new weapons and remoulded parts (like elbows).
Unite Warriors Devastator is currently scheduled for release on December 31st in Japan.
Much more fluid than the elbowless Hasbro ones.
I was fairly disappointed with missing out on Devvy at Big W earlier in the year but now am happy due the Tak/Tom upgrades to what will be a glorious piece to add to the collection
im really loving this version, Hasbro is too plain and SDCC is just too shiny ;)
I just thought I couldn't go wrong with buying it at only $210 at Premium collectables. With the extra perks at like just $15 more, it was no brainer for me.
Can't still seem to see what the box looks like? Are they boxed in combined mode like SDCC?
Takara Tomy Mall lists the box size as W530 x H355 x D125 mm so I think it is in alt mode just like Hasbro. We should be seeing some box images soon since it is only a month away from release :DQuote:

A bit OT. But those who are getting the Takara version. Will you also be getting the 3rd party addons from PE?
I'm waiting to see reviews of the kit before diving in.
It's best to ask in the 3P section of the board, in case it starts up discussion (which will then force us to move it anyway), and because 3P fans are more likely to see your question.
More new images of UW Devastator, this time from Dengeki Hobby.

^that ends the speculation on packaging. Same as Hasbro style just some variation on the artwork infront of the box. I was hoping for a window type though so I can keep em MISB but well I dont think I can keep him prisoner of that box since I bought already a cabinet from IKEA big enough for him (them) :D
Hmmm... So UW Devastator doesn't have the bookstyle box like UW Superion or Menasor. That's a tad disappointing.Quote:

Devastator is to be released at the middle of next month.
Hope so. He is my Christmas present.
I might already have two versions of Devastator, but there is just something about seeing those pictures just makes me excited to get the Japanese version.
I'm happy with my Hasbro version but man even the Takara box has better paint aps! :D
So glad hasbro one was sold out and PC offered this version for less than $20 more
Me too. Even had the Hasbro on layby and while everyone else seemed to get theirs there were none in sight.Quote:

Nothing can push back the release on this Giant !!! (crosses fingers) :)
FYI- Just got a notification from NY that the release date has been brought forward to 12 Dec from 31 Dec. Won't matter to me because I've grouped it with Road Rage that comes out late Dec.
Oh crap i thought Takara would be generous this Xmas to give both UW Defensor and Devastator together (so it is too good to be true) :(Quote:

Looks like I'm going to have a whole lot of transformers awesome turn up in time for my birthday in the new year. sweet.
I'm pretty pumped for this devastator. I'm a bit over all the tease pictures, as nice as they are to look at they feel redundant when I know I have the sucka paid for and will be receiving it as soon as it becomes available.
