    This is apparently a much smaller figure which IMO works better than TFC's as it's likely to be more in scale with Crossfire Superion and Bruticus. I also hope it is more reasonably priced too.

    This looks to be the Classics Devastator that I have been waiting for - If the prices are fair and the robot modes decent, it is bought.

    Edit:

    Here is a size comparison!

    On that picture alone, Maketoy's will be the group that receives my money for a 3rd Party Devastator as I really like the look of this thing plus the scale is way more in-line with what I'd like.

    Well done guys, well done!

    that looks cool!!!! from the blurred pics i dont think the indivdual bots looks as good, i could be worng but i want it and that combined mode looks cool!! Man TFC is screwed if this outsells their one as it took them ages to finish their product and the price is out of this world imo

    funny atm im not interested in any official toys other than the new generations and my money is going to 3rd party products like the insecticons and the new maketoys products.

    Im really not surprised by this statement at all.
    So many G1 collectors are using this formula in collecting - Generations et al, third party customs and any Encore etc pieces that come and they do not have.

    I feel like TFClub is going to be very damaged by this..

    Anyway- I was a bit stressed knowing I couldn't really put down the dosh for the TFC Devy and missing out on a Classics Devy... but maketoys has saved the day.

    This guy is definitely bought! The size is decent aswell, matching up with the previous FP combiners! (and hopefully the pricing matches). Chest plate too. The design elements are very similar to FP- almost too alike (look at that waist piece!)

    Bring on Menasor/Computron/Defensor/Abominus...

    Bought.

    Looks fantastic, and a cheaper option to the TFClub one. They will have a loss in sales for sure. Though their one will be massive, I am inclined to buy this one.

    hahaha, perhaps an FP designer had a falling out and went to start his own 3rd party group? lol

    DEVASTOR: Hey Bruticus, you know that thing where you combine into a gestalt and then you can't see anything in your periphery?

    BRUTICUS: Um... no. Dude, that sounds like tunnel vision! You should totally get that checked out.

    DEVASTATOR: Well... at least I'm not that guy.

    I see what you're getting at though dude and it is a very minute annoyance but I felt that nit pick with FP Bruticus too.
