New Gallery: SDCC 2015 Combiner Wars Devastator
Still unsure about Devastator? Still unsure about the bling the SDCC version is rockin'? Well check out our newest gallery to help you decide! (I have the retail version in hand and I must say it's worth the money, so while I can't say much about the chrome, I'd imagine if you're an SDCC junkie, this guy is perfect for you!)
Our galleries of the individual bots will be released over the weekend, so you'll have something to enjoy when you come home from your 4th of July celebrations, something that'll make you paw the screen and drool. (And probably open your wallets...c'mon, we only live once!)
Before we head onto the gallery, make note of the special edition packaging, chrome accents and G1 toy accurate paint apps used to match those of the sticker sheet that came with the original many moons ago. (You can see the original in our galleries by clicking right here.)
Without further ado, we proudly present 2015 San Diego Comic Con exclusive Combiner Wars Titan Class Devastator!

If Devastator's chest piece and some of the other Constructicon parts are a different hue of purple, why not replace the rest of the old purple to the attention drawing purple? It would make more sense.

Chrome paint is expensive yo. Maybe they blew most of the budget on giving Devs stereoscopic vision. Maybe they got halfway through chroming up the purple bits and ran out of budget.
In all honesty I don't understand the Chrome paint on this. If all the Purple was chrome, it might look great. But the mixed types of paint is kind of distracting.

Purple is a really hard color to get right, especially in photography. A single shift to either red or blue can change the appearance on the image dramatically, while in person it looks totally different.

Meh. Looks okay, but I'll just wait for the Takara release with proper elbows and guns for the individual bots and more detailed paint apps. I'm not liking the chrome at all. I appreciate that they seem to be trying to give us what we want, but it's like they just don't quite understand how we want it. The purple areas are the last thing I would want chromed. I would prefer chrome where chrome makes realistic sense on the vehicles and maybe just mirror the chrome on the old G1 toys on the bots. I figure the Takara version plus the various third-party upgrades with make a fine MP Devy.

This has probably already been discussed (I'm too lazy to read the previous 14 pages of comments). So this set was designed by Shogo, who's been hitting home runs in the MP line. Seems to me the Takara version is how this set was originally designed, with the elbows and whatnot, and the Hasbro version is the remold. I can't imagine Shogo not have individual bot modes with no elbows in his original design. I assume Hasbro cut them as a cost saving measure?

Additionally, the changes made to Hook's and Mixmaster's arms to give them better elbows by adding new elbow joints did not replace the joints that were already made for the Hasbro version, instead keeping the Hasbro elbow joints intact, making their arms now have double-jointed elbows while the other Constructicons only have single-jointed elbows, further showing that these changes were made after Hasbro's version was done.

Takara for sure, but I think I'll grab a regular HASBRO for me and my boys to mess with.

By now you have undoubtedly checked out our SDCC 2015 Devastator gallery (If you haven't then by all means get to clicking). Now its time to break down Devy into his component Constructicons featuring Scrapper, Hook, Long Haul, Bonecrusher, Scavenger and Mixmaster. This sextet features more paint apps than the standard retail edition and as you can see the chrome purple also extends into the robot modes of Scrapper, Hook and Mixmaster as well. What else more is there to say about these guys? Click on the images below to see the full galleries.

Devy's left foot is so weird. Like, Mixmaster is designed to have an ankle-tilt in combined mode, like Scrapper, but you can't actually tilt without bending his arms out of the way and having them hang off the back of the leg.

I like the chrome. I only transforms my figures once in a while, so not afraid the chrome will rub off. I love to display my transformers under the blue/white lighting. Any color chrome and white plastic shines under the light. It's beautiful. The only gripe I have about the devastator is the left mixer facing up. It's weird. The bigger part of the mixer should face up. But oh, well.

I know I'm definitely a minority on this one but I like the metallic purple. The color doesn't bother me at all and I love the way it pops. I Will say that I'm glad they didn't use it on all the purple because it should be more of an accent than a base color.

Is there any news as to whether US big box retailers like Costco or SAMs Club will have the CW Devastator box set in their stores?
Costco sold Metroplex in stores in 2013, and before that, SAM's Club had the movie Devastator box set.

These images also feature the fan mode for Mirage which has the front of the vehicle as his chest. Ultra Prime's gallery has also been updated to include new pics with the rest of the Autobots. Enjoy!

Outside of Mirage I think these combiner war versions are superior to their older versions mostly due to playability reasons as well as looks mostly speaking about Prowl and Ironhide here.
The classics Sunstreaker is a good mold but I prefer the Combiner Wars Head sculpt, engine back and alt mode here.
Even if some characters lose some of their iconic design choices such as Prowl's door wings or Ironhide's window chest (Although this Ironhide's chest is painted in blue to invoke that window chest) I still think these are great updates for them and Combining is a bonus for some people.
And just because their repaints doesn't make them bad I think the repaints here are pretty damn good and the paint choices and new heads make them look different enough from the original molds I mean outside of the pointless repaints such as Nightwatch Optimus when did you guys have problems with repaints as new guys?
The Commandos/Combaticons from Rid were just repaints of the G1 Combaticons and Rid Scourge is just a repaint of an Optimus Prime mold and heck some of the minibots from 1986 were just repaints/remolds of older guys such as Windcharger into Tailgate or Pipes from Huffer.

While I don't hate these, I do wish they would've made a few more cosmetic changes besides the heads. For example, the flip down chests for Prowl and Sunstreaker could've been changed to something new.

I'm with you there, the heads are great, but the bodies could use some more oomph (that is a scientific term). Especially Ironhide and Mirage (Streetwise's chest is at least molded to resemble a car-front), mostly because I think that the Offroad mold looks too slim and young to be Ironhide (pre-war Ironhide, yes) and while the Dragstrip mold rocks the Mirage look, I wish they'd given him new arms to match the style of his boxier 80s era F1 racer and cartoon design.

I actually thought that prowl was a bigger offender, because he has never had those vent things on his legs has he? They could have at least molded faux bumpers or something onto his legs.
And I think it would have really set him apart from streetwise - and driven home the point that he is a police car - to have painted his light bar two different colors, seriously, no modern (and his alt mode is nothing if not modern) police cars have a single colored light bar

Ironhide is boring and Prowl doesn't interest me because I don't like that mold and it's similar to Streetwise, which I already have.
I'm planning on making my own OP-Gestalt, combining OP (the red and blue version) with Mirage, Sunstreaker, Hound, and a 4th to be named later.

Well, I figured it would end up being something you would regret not getting, and would then buy it on the secondary market for much higher prices, so I'm technically saving you money

Seibertron.com is proud to present 2 new galleries from the ever popular Combiner Wars line. Legends Class Skywarp follows the tradition and natural progression of repainting Starscream into the classic seeker trio. Legends Class Rodimus when announced was a bit of a curve ball and is a repaint of Combiner Wars Legends Class Blackjack. He can also form the chest piece for Optimus Maximus or even Ultra Prime if you so desire. You should also desire a more in-depth look at these new galleries which you can do by clicking the images below.

Seen these at a couple of targets, but the soft rubber on skywarp still kills this mold for me; it will never be in the proper shape it should be, and like, why even make them out of soft rubber? was there no purple sprue being used?

Someone pointed this out to me and I can't not notice it now, but it's weird comparing the Seekers because the budget apparently keeps going down. A minor thing, sure, but kinda depressing that since Acid Storm from just last year they've lost paint apps on the chest, shins, and kneecaps on top of losing the partner figure.

You guys are fun.
So I am sorry if I kill the mood (see me as the little voice on the other side of the shoulder), but I did want to mention that not all TFs go up in value. Some do drop, and its usually the ones people care less about as time goes on. Like the Energon Line, the TF Go! line, the Alternators line and the Titanium line.

Well, that was my other thought: these don't have collector value now, they probably won't when he has the money to get them, and by that time, some of the lost light crew (right? the ones he's looking at in these sets) will have good figures, so... win-win
Also, if those GO! combiners weren't such kibble-ridden pieces of garbage, I'd get them for $14
