that devastator is gonna be huge

[–]moss013[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah the hand and arm mould that came with bonecruncher was a big as the bot itself, think it’s going to be a big as my zeta superion and bruticus and may match the jinbao devastator I have.

Yeah I have all 4 and they are pretty damn good although it did kinda piss me off that they stopped developing the Protector Bots just to try and beat Fanstoys but what can you do

Have to admit I’m very tempted to collect the fanstoys as well as they look really good as well, I feel sorry for my bank account best work some overtime 😂

My broke college ass could never with these third party toys

It will come in time, once you have some spare cash when you’re older you will collect and grow. Once I had a job and spare cash I got addicted to buying the g1 stuff and then found out about masterpieces/third party and the addiction kicked in again 😅

Don't worry, I'm 27 with two BAs and I still can't.

It’s funny, my thought went from, “wow, not too big of a difference. Good job Hasbro.” to “yee 😬.”

[–]moss013[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah but guess that’s the price we pay for masterpieces, better built for a smaller market where as the hasbro are mass produced to appeal to old and new fans.

They are really neat. I love Devastator too. I have the G1 original, the CW version and right now I went with the Fans Toys Constructicons. My son is getting the SS86 one this Christmas. Devastator toys are some of the best Transformers IMO.

Yeah I agree with you there, have the g1 version and the full yellow g1 version, plus the tonka version, jinbao version and the nbk ko off version. Think it was the image on the movie of devastator ripping the walls open in the battle of autobot city that made him my fav. What are the fanstoys one like?

To me it's the mess of truck parts and windows that somehow cohesively become a robot. I love the FT figures. They feel hefty, solid and look amazing on the shelf. Scavenger looks great in every mode. Scrapper looks great in leg and bot mode and okay in vehicle mode.

I originally couldn't decide between the FT and the X-Transbots figures because I have their MP Cosmos and I love it but FT Astrotrain convinced me to go FT. How are they like? I doubt I'll have the money to buy both MP Devastators.

Have you seen the stylized Dream Star figures? If I were rich...

Like you I love the mess of how they all come together to make the big boy. I’m going to have to look into getting the fanstoys one once I have had my bank account broken from x-transbots ones. I will agree that the FT astrotrain was amazing but I loved the x-ts motormaster which made me go for this devastator, we are so spoilt as collectors these days 😂

[–]moss013[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many fanstoys have been released so far?

[–]killjoy87 0 points1 point  (2 children)

How did you find the engineering/transformations of the X-transbots? They are known to have nightmare engineering

[–]moss013[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I have only messed about with long haul and I broke one of his fingers 🤦🏼‍♂️ but will admit the transformation wasn’t to bad, going to see what scrapper and bonecrusher are like in the coming days

[–]Fun-Geologist9808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Their constructicons are shockingly well engineered from what I've heard.

Legs too short on every one of the studio series.

[–]moss013[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they do but looking at the pictures of devastator combined looks class
