Wow that was fast.
I just assumed this was coming ages away, it must have been planned for some time already

I had no idea they were already being released, figured it was a 'coming some time soon' type thing haha.
Wonder how the Devastator compares to the KO G1 ones.

The G1 Devastator mould is degrading. With every reissue the mould is getting worse. I have both Encore 20 and Encore 20A, both of which have issues with combining. This release will likely have more issues than the Encore releases.
As for comparisons to KOs we keep KO and Third Party discussion to their respective areas of the boards.
But... But... Constructicons are masters of construction...

More official images of the reissues have surfaced, and the price for Devastator in the US (US$75).
(note the two Constructicons with really bad legs)
And this could be what the minibots will look like in packaging - if true, it is very retro like the other reissues coming in boxes.

It seems the packaging of this reissue is based on the later Hasbro carded variation. I prefer earlier carded variants where the figure is in alt-mode so that it doesn't obstruct the card art. This figure itself has the paint apps of the Encore version.
Alas, sold out at RK. If anyone has spares of these to sell, I'll take'em.

The SDCC display confirms that the minibots are on vintage styled backing cards.
