    I reckon he looks pretty good for a Hasbro combiner. Mixmaster looks out of place being flipped upside down as the leg.

    I definitely won't be taking the chances with retail on this. Metroplex never showed anywhere in my town that I'm aware of, so as soon as pre-orders open up from an Aussie online store I'm locking one down! Unless of course its a TRU exclusive or something - then I'm out. :/

    We will find out at NY and AUS Toyfair how this will be released, but is likely to be similar to Metroplex - available to all Retailers, but not all will take it on.

    I found Metroplex at Myer Chadstone around Christmas 2013, so maybe only the bigger retailers will carry to Titan class figures.

    After thinking about the full picture of Devastator for a couple of days I'm 99% OK with the mould, but Mixmaster looks wrong to me.

    Also it would be cool if Hasbro would give their convention works instructions.
    I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.

    Stand a few Decepticons in front of Devastator and you won't even see Mixmaster's foot (which may still change from this prototype).

    I still think it is mis-transformed

    He might as well be TRU exclusive if that's the case. We don't have Myer anywhere near Central QLD (although I think there is one in Mackay? which is still 4 hours drive for me) or any of those retailers that usually carry this stuff. Basically between Sunshine Coast and Townsville, is a baron wasteland for major TF retailers. No Myer, No TRU. Now, if McDonalds starts selling TF's - then I'll be set! We've got an abundance of those

    Metroplex was also a toy sale catalogue item at Target and Big W (and appeared at Costco which probably doesn't help).

    Nah, Mack Town has a TRU and Myers... but yeah, a 4 hour drive is a long way to go to get your TF on! haha

    My bad - thanks for the correction
    I thought the Mackay TRU burnt down a few years ago, and weren't rebuilding?
