I voted only if___It had other colours.
I saw this the other day and thought it looked really boring. I don't even think it would be worth it cheap. The original release while not G1 accurate had more detail due to the colours used.
It just looks plain green.

I've got the Japanese version released a while ago and while I'm not one of those people that instantly thinks that Japanese releases are better than western releases, its the case here. The added use of purple really sells that set, whereas this just feels unfinished.

It's just...green. It just all merges together. Theres no definition in it.

I've seen this toy here a few times at TRU. Doesn't interest me in the slightest.

I totally agree. Looks too plain and boring. And really, when I remove my G1 bias, so does the original G1 Devastator. The original colours onDiaclone Devastator (Kensetsusha Robo) look better IMO - hence why I was excited when I saw images of ROTF Devastator as I thought the multiple colours not only looked nicer but was also a nice homage (possibly unintended) to Diaclone multicoloured Devastator.

You'd think they would have added something to it. G1 Devestator was green but he also had the purple parts, this one's only extra colour is white and it doesn't work.
