Legacy menasor had a cheat code because motor master’s trailer actually becomes an armor for motor master and the limb bots just simply attach to the arms and legs of motor master’s trailer armor
I normally love Mini Transformers, but needing a separate piece to get 70% of the body for Devastator ruins a lot of it for me. I could understand the head, arms, and chest piece, but the rest?
Agreed. The individual pieces are amazing, and the combined Devastator is equally impressive (the leg connections are A LOT better than the original)...but it's seriously cheating and a let down in my book to have that 70% non-transforming part.
@@nosrepsuomynona7192 I didn't realize how bad Newages devy was until I started seeing the combined mode, it's fucking $450 USD. That's gotta be a joke I paid $530 USD for an MP devy.
thats very great amazing awesome my favorite collection the constructions combiner devastator decepticon the transformers g1 original classic series. love the constructicons combiner devastator the transformers g1. thank you friends 🤘🎸
Lots of companies already made a Devastator with minimal parts forming but the results were either limited articulation, stability issues or overly complicated transformation. Newage steps in to solve those by creating a solid Devastaor body where the 6 bots can connect to securely resulting in a very stable combined form, toon accurate, great articulation, simple to transform and a good looking robot. Always good to have options. Theres always a trade off somewhere but I like their decision to go this route and cant wait to complete this set and display him with the rest of my legends. He would look awesome on my shelf.
You know people call Hasbro Lazy & such. But I think this is just as plain, I wanted these but after looking on how they form. I think I am going to skip the combined body form. Zeta toys did that & That is what turned me off of Zeta completely. I thinK I will save like $70 & just buy them for constructicons & Not devastator. Dx9 Did a better job with war in pocket devy Even the G1 devastator was not like this used a different combiner body . Yeah that is a totally turn off. I just want them for the bots not devy.
The small robots and vehicles are AMAZING. Too bad they didn't think of something for Devastator's main body... It's just sad to have a mutilated Devastator when all get separated and... pretend it's just not there?
@@fawziekefli2273 : but Prime's trailer usually becomes a battle station or something. It's not like we leave Prime's face and half torso on the ground when he goes in vehicle mode.
You know them having all the combined parts separate is pretty old school...but it kind of defeats the purpose. I guess that's the sacrifice for having such otherwise superlative mini figures.
after owning magic square bruticus, i would give this some leeway now. if you want to really be mad, see the Iron factory for Liokaiser i cannot defend that one specifically since the bots alone already partsform for the most part
No no no! Why is Devastator one of the coolest Transformers toys ever? Because the Constructicons combined to form him from their own bodies with a few additional parts. On this the Constructicons themselves are the few additional parts. Just plain wrong. Engineering in the individual bots is good though.
To be fair said toy was also worst case of showing as much parts into toys that shows no sign of ever being intended to combine till you get a robot, only 2 had some resemblance of being intended to combine, so the comparation here is quite unfair, even if that here is a mockery of combiner toys
Don't get me wrong, I would love to pick this set up. But is it just me or are we looking at roughly $300 all in? That's in the ballpark of an MPscaled combiner. That's nuts.
Dude it's 74.99 usd for each two pack plus 65.99 for the body plus overseas shipping it's closer to $400 USD depending where you order it. It's a joke man
this set is so disappointing, as stand alone figure, each one is great, cant fault them for that, but as a combiner, it all just attaches onto a frame, there's pretty much no combining
I hope NA does Sideswipe soon. It’s got to be one of their best, though. Thin, angular, on par with their Starscream, or like MP12+ with a much narrower chest.
This is a pretty amazing set, the individual figures is where it really shines IMO… the only thing I dislike is the visor for Devastator is inaccurate to the screen representation in the series.
@@NexusProductions-rz1sv nope, MS Devy has pelvis/upper legs and forearms. Long Haul, Hook, Scavenger and Bonecrusher actually combine with each other. Scrapper and Mixmaster attach to the upper legs. So not the same at all.
Honestly, I don’t care about the combiner skeleton when the individual robots are perfect. Doing it this way means no compromises needed to be made to the constructicons. If you want a legends devastator that doesn’t do this, go with magic square, but the individual figures won’t be as good.
People have to speak with their wallets for that to happen. I’ll see what it’s like in hand before I fully judge it. But I expect it to be aesthetically pleasing, stable, articulate well, and able to produce 6 good looking individual bots. I think it will do all of that. But that’s just what’s matters to me and what I deem valuable. Totally fine for people to not feel the same way. I do however think it’s too expensive. Also, I don’t think it’s perfect; still things I wish they had done better.
@@NexusProductions-rz1sv have you looked at the combine piece for MS it doesn't have a chest that you just fill the bots into, the legs don't look like he skipped a day at the gym either. Newage you could potentially skip buying 2 bots and the combined mode wouldn't look different with MS it matters.
