I was wondering if Takara would actually release Devastator. What the... is that the price, 5750Y?? Only $61 US? 
Looks like he'll be available at the end of September （9月下旬）。
EDIT: Whoops... haha.. I missed the 1万. Now the price makes more sense...

Very interesting, and quite a low price for Devastator if your conversion is correct. The red face on him doesn't really look good though. Maybe if it was molded red with grey paint instead of grey plastic with red paint. Still, can't complain about the price.

I missed 10,000Y of the price.. Actually will be $167.00.. Sorry for getting your hopes up
That means we're probably looking at $215-225 at BBTS exchange rates.

Nice to see Encore Skids in the photos. 
Now are the two repaints below Skids supposed to be a nod to Mudflap and Skids of RotF?

Yup, they're called Skids and Screech and are available to those who fill out the back of the card they get with the Generations vol 3 book.

Hehe, cool.
Dang, they're expensive but they're exclusives so that's to be expected.

Very nice homage from the movie using the G1 Skids mold. Could they do something similar with Towline from Energon for the USA?
And you gotta love the cover of the magazine,
Kamen Rider Decade.....Henshin.

Speaking of HA BB, to momentarily go off topic, have you tried the leg fix? I hear that it makes the figure more movie accurate and only adds an extra step or two to the transformation process.
I've been thinking of picking up HA BB while it's available at the local stores.

I actually like the red face-paint Supreme Devastator more, but the price is a big turn-off.

Oh yeah, your collection is mostly MISB right? I forgot about that, sorry.

Devastator likes to dress up and look pretty. 
I actually kinda like the Mickey (my wife's a Disney Freak) but since I have the original I'm not shelling out for the repaint.

Love the Kamen Rider cover. Awesome selection right there.
NO FAIR! First there's Buster Optimus Prime, and now Takara's Devastator gets a more correctly-colored face. Argh! Stop being so lazy, Hasbro! If Buster Prime's too much work to do, then at least get Devy's face right!

They might get better figures, but with people shying away from Devastator when its $100 here, I don't think they'll pay Takara version's price.
