New Images of upcoming TFClub products: Devastator, Headmasters ,Targetoids, Primas!

My god this stuff is awesome, the only thing I don't want is the Primas thing, the rest is totally rad!
Those Targetoids are awesome, they even come with their own guns, and those Headmasters and Devastator, god damn next years is going to be sad, very sad!

silly me

Hell yes, that Devastator looks awesome. There is no way in hell I won't be picking that up.

Good jesus god in heaven!!!!!! I might actually have to build a shelf just to place him in my collection. If I can get my hands on one of those not-devestators I might actually cry, especially since based on the scale they EACH look to be voyager size roughly. Which to me screams expensive!

its a shame these are not made by hasbro. not interested.

I really want to like the target-masters, but I just don't.
Their bot modes are cool, but the gun modes ... I dunno.
I'm on the fence with these.

And neither Super Deformed nor vintage Headmasters are really my thing, so I can skip those.

But man, that Devy is un-freaking believable!

nice finally a awesome version of devastator i will get it, when i see him in store , i cant wait to have it.

OH! MY! GOD!

Devastator is AMAZING! I want it soo soo soo soo soo bad!

The Targetroids are effing awesome, too! I hope they go for Soundwave and Shockwave in the future.

As far as the Headmasters go, I don't have any G1 Headmasters, so the only reason I would get either is just to have another version of Soundwave.

But Devastator is my priority. I am worried, however, that the crane in the back will cause a lot of balance issues... :/

Devastator!
Devastator!
Devastator!
Devastator!
You will be mine

OMG, all this and Insectitrain? I thought 2010 was the year of the third party developers but it looks like 2011 will be even better. Btw, for those hoping for a similar scale Devastator, I probably isn't going to happen. Hasbro will have to take the risk on creating 6 voyager sized figs and all of them selling in order to make a profit. While the fans will snap him up, what about the kids. There is no media event to drive this toy into the homes. Unless Devastator shows up exactly as he did in G1, there won't be demand for it. Do you think the parent's will invest in such a costly figure? It will be Supreme Devastator from ROTF all over again. In the UK it would cost at least £100 to complete the giant. From a business point of view, I think that would be too risky for Hasbro.

Insanely curious about the JB-01 & 02. Everything else is looking awesome as well. Love the idea of the Targetmasters being principal characters and not just "modified" Nebulans. I do have to admit though that after taking another look at Frenzy/Rumble's Devastator, this TFC version is impressing me less and less. Sure, the Frenzy/Rumble creation was a one shot deal and non-transforming but by the time this TFC version is complete, it may as well be in the same category. The price is gonna be absolutely insane (it'd have to be) and I'd be amazed if even a dozen of these get sent to the states because of that fact. I'd just as soon enjoy looking at the pics of the F/R version. It's way bigger and the detail blows this one away.

Oh.
My.
God.

That Devastator set is better than sex. TFClub, you've sold me. Now all I need is a job and money.

see the scaffolding stuff that's around the partly constructed Devy and encases the "little" robot mode Constructicon? I wonder if we might be lucky enough that that comes with them...kind of packaging?

Also, am I the only one that wants them to come with trumpets for the coronation scene?

Wait isnt Scrapper the Constructicon leader who forms Devastator's right leg?

This version of Devy is looking better and better. The Frenzy/Rumble Devy was transformable (or at least he made a transformable version) and he made a few. Peaugh got one and did a whole week of reviews for it.

That's not Not-Scrapper. It's Not-Scavenger. I think Dead Metal misnamed.

One of the last pics of Not-Devastator from the backside appears to reveal that Not-Devastator's head stays attached to Not-Hook's body. Major plus. I wonder if Not-Devastator's hands are concealed when Not-Scavenger and Not-Bonecrusher are not forming the arms. I guess we'll find out as 2011 progresses.

craggy wrote:Also, am I the only one that wants them to come with trumpets for the coronation scene?

Now that you mention it. . .some trumpets would be nice! maybe another 3rd party company can make them, if their not included, that is.

TFClub is some pretty cool guys. They make crazy big toys, and doesn't afraid of not selling them.

No really, it's too bad no one will be able to afford this. It'll probably be a limited release though.

I was already interested in the new Devastator, but now I REALLY want to start saving up for it! Does anybody have any clue on pricing? I just know it's going to be completely ludicrous, but I want to know if I should have a heart attack now or later!

I really like the Targetroids, too; I figure if they aren't too expensive I'll get Megatron and Optimus.

The rest of the lineup is ging to be a "pass" for me though. I'm not too interested in the Head Masters unless we end up with new bodies at some point, and I've never been keen on SD style anything, so Primars is out.

All said and done, it looks like there will be something for everyone in TFC Toys' lineup.

Awesome idea!! Maybe they should have spring loaded, detachable cones for when Starscream shoots them off.

That Devastator really does look awesome. I think I'll definately have to get this. So what if I have to put off getting a new car for a decade or so. Disappointed with Primars. I was hoping when I saw the name in the topic title that it was some kind of rendition of the original Matrix bearer. Silly me. I'm 50/50 on the Targetroids. Megatron and Optimus look like crap. Starscream and Hot Rod look pretty cool though. I would happily use them on my Classics figures.

The only thing I'm interested in this thread is Devastator... and that'll set me back a pretty penny.

They've added additional pictures of the previously mentioned products, and added a couple of new ones. Now they've got a pic of their G1 Predaking upgrades and CG models of a Reflector-esque camera transformer.

Just been taking a closer look at the Devastator photos. Is it me, or is his head hollow?? That's a downer.

that's an opportunity to stick an LED in the back of that sucker and light his eyes up!

It would be cool, but I believe that's from a Gundam kit.

Thanks, I'll go and change that right now.

In perspective, FansProject's Explorer and Munitioner were both Scout Class size and sold for approximately $50.00 each. Now that we see Not-Hook and Not-Scavenger next to ROTF's Voyager Class Long Haul and Mix Master and Deluxe Rampage (Bonecrusher), one can guess that these will be upper class Deluxe Class size Third Party Not-Constructicons. With that in mind, price estimates will most likely be around $75.00+ each, especially if they come with an assortment of weapons and such similar to FansProject's Explorer and Munitioner.

So if this is the case, with there being six of these Not-Constructicons to form Not-Devastator, you're looking at about $450.00 to $500.00 total. Of course, that's excluding tax and shipping (which has gone up for air-mail due to the recent mail-bombs a couple of months back). My guess, $750.00 to $800.00 total. So start saving up now.

Devastator is really exciting. I only hope they'll be released individually so they'll be affordable. Only thing is, where the heck would I put it? Looks HUGE!

Display in a huge shadow box with no dividers and hang on the wall like a plaque or diploma. If any of us manage to get one of these in 2011, it should be honored and treasured as such just like a trophy. I'm liable to build a shrine and pay homage to it daily before trotting off to work to pay off the huge credit card bill I'm sure it will rack up.

I feel sorry (and envious) for the one collector out there that will buy three sets (four sets if there is a Vehicle Battle Mode) so as to display the Not-Constructicons in their Vehicle Modes, their Robot Modes, and the Not-Devastator Mode. Imagine that credit card bill. Yipes!

This does indeed look awesome, but I think for the money it's likely to cost I'm looking at Classics Devastator and thinking though he needs an upgrade, it's not that bad......

Devastator seems to be a few people's favourite combiner, personally I'd far rather see Predaking or Menasor. They're the sort of bots I'd consider paying $600 for.

Personally I've still got my fingers crossed that FansProject will come through for us with an upgrade kit for Classics Devastator. They did it for the Classics Aerialbots and the Classics Combaticons, hopefully the Classics Constructicons is next on their list. In fact, if I remember correctly in the mini-booklet that came with my Munitioner and Explorer, FansProject is indeed working on a third Gestalt. So that could be an upgrade kit for Classics Devastator.

However, the mini-booklet that came with my Protector (Not-Rodimus Prime upgrade kit) shows what appears to be the Glacierbot Leader, a Mastodon in Robot Mode. Although "Coming Soon" isn't printed anywhere, it does have "20,000 BC" printed at the bottom right. The Glacierbots are Autobots that take the form of beasts that lived during Earth's Ice Age and is a "from scratch" project of FansProject.

A Predaking and a Menasor would be super great as well. Here's hoping.

I think them showing us the correct pronunciations might help. ATM, we're inclined to assume it's Tar-get-roids, but the correct pronunciation they had in mind might be Tar-ge-troids,to get more of a Target Droids effect.

Naw, man, they're like Targetmasters on steroids!

I think somebody already reported on this one. Looks like a remold and recoloring of Munitioner and Explorer, as well as new bots that still haven't been revealed...from what I saw they look like they would make a walking Autobot garbage disposal.
