    Would have been good if they include the alternative g1 head along with the prowl head.

    The design is based off of the Studio Ox Devastator. So it's kinda G1.

    $780 + - full set

    Is already selling individuals of some. $120-150 a pop.

    Yes we know is expensive but do consider its materials and size.

    From this picture, it does look spot on accurate.

    I'm 4 of 6 in so far and quite happy with them. The treads roll and Mixmaster's drum mechanically turns when wound up. The vehicles and bots have great articulation and feel solid. The Devestator hands are fully articulated but still have a strong grip.

    Current list of gripes -
    • It parts-forms - forearms and hands, chestshield and gun
    • Devestator is a bit lanky but can be mis-transformed to add torso bulk
    • The Studio Ox head is not G1 accurate
    • The forearms are too big
    • The first two releases (Bonecrusher and Scavenger) had assembley problems with elbow cracks, but TW are including replacement parts in the last two releases. Or you can order them from your distributor.
    • The plastic quality is a bit rubbery but not cheap or brittle
    • Mixmaster's face is awful and his drum is green
    • Mixmaster and Scrapper's lower legs are kinda big, but stable
    • Bonecrusher's scoop doesn't fold upwards onto his back, which is G1 accurate


    I'm sure there will be other third party options for this set including G1 heads and gap-fillers.
    Which brings us to where we are today...

    Damn 4/6 that means I need $450 to be in it now. Sigh...

    I have been looking around at upgrade parts for uw devy and so far none impressed me in full.

    Probably the best third party Dev in terms of articulation and balance - that pose of him punching the floor is awesome. The plastic quality mentioned by Tober would make sense to achieve these two qualities.
