Week of Big Bois 2: Combiner Wars Devastator

[@rexemuwu]

Long Haul: "Hhnnnrrrg, Lord Megatron, Im trying to sneak around the Ark... But Im dummy THICC and the clap of my ass cheeks keeps alerting the Autobots!"

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Nah "But I'm Dummy THICC and the Clap of my Kibble keeps alerting the Autobots."

[@ratchetmechani2002]

The official figure is probably one of my favorites in my collection. I wish the green was darker like on the box art but that's barely a complaint. The size just makes it awkward to transform if you don't got the room, it makes me a bit nervous to get other titans like Omega and Trypticon but otherwise, I love this thing

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I guarntee you that Omega does not suffer from the nervousness. He's solid as a rock.

[@ratchetmechani2002]

@@PerspectiveEnd Oh it's not solidity it's the sheer size of the figure. I don't hate the transformation either it's just the size and weight of it, also getting the crest to tab into the treads on the arms is a little funky. After seeing Thews vid on Siege Unicron though I feel silly for complaining lol. I just plan on getting Armada Unicron and having a friend 3D printing Toymakr3D's Quintesson judge and Hightails Sharkticon.

Those offbrand decepticon insignias bring me unspeakable joy and I don't know why

Yeah they are pretty funny.

[@themechaidiot]

Tfc Hercules is actually really minimal with his partsforming too, with only the hands and the chest batrang with a optional partsforming upgrade kit

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I have been interested in that figure from time to time.

[@uSCOTTpwnd]

I picked up this same set because in 2019 Devastator was impossible to find at a reasonable price and I wasnt even sure I wanted a massively underwhelming combiner. But when I saw there was a KO that was undersized, highly reviewed AND scales with the other Combiner Wars gestalts (unless Devy is meant to be a giant amongst the scramble city combiners) i had to! and yeah aside from some uneven tolerances, Im really happy with him. You're right, all the detail and functionality feels right at this scale. Not enough people know about this figure but hes perfect for anyone missing a Devy for their Generations collection.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah some how this ended up as a real improvement by being smaller, and I've never seen anyone talk about it before.

[@jurassicwreck7146]

I love how this video was just “dunking on the toy world devastator part 5”

I actually got the Hasbro 2015 for my birthday last year, (my next birthday being tomorrow, I'll be 16,) he's currently (and literally,) standing as the biggest Transformer I have right now. Devastator clocks in around 1 and a half feet, and my little sister is around 4 feet.

I originally came to preach the gospel of the Jinbao OSKO Gravity Builder, but in fact It’s wild how much I love him and yet how much I don’t think you would. The upgrade kit makes it look PERFECT but through MAJOR partsforming, and the non-upgraded version partsforms the *bare minimum* (and does it with style!) but just isn’t concerned at all about accuracy. The individual figures are AMAZING, but are again intended to be pretty drastic reimaginings. And the whole guy together is very solidly *connected* and pretty damn sturdy, but he doesn’t balance amazingly well, and he’s just kinda weirdly *fiddly* in a way that means you have to kinda keep an eye on a ton of small components to make sure they’re still doing something correct and/or cool. He’s the pride of my collection, but I honestly think that despite the INSANE accuracy, DEVASTATING size, ~decent stability (if you put some rubber on his soles), and good posability of the upgraded version, I think you’d find him just too *fiddly*, with too many dubiously-attached little details and too many cosmetic pieces that come slightly untabbed a little too easily

[@diegos7337]

I own the Takara Unite Warriors Devastator, and I looooove him! I never wanted the combiner wars one. The Takara one is screen accurate panted, you can lift the visor for eyes, all the figures have elbow joints, and all of the constructions have their respective G1 gun. After years of getting that I wanted a scales Devastator for my CW combiners. I got this as well, for an knock of is pretty cool, I bought t it for 36 dollars though. I just keep him in combines mode, I don't want to risk certain figures breaking. The one I combine and uncombine is the Takara one of course. I got the Takara Bardigus (RID Ruination as Well), so to have a Bruticus bought the knock off as well. Amazing for $35! Id o[t need the CW version since I got the Blastoff which was sold by Amazon a while ago. Yeah this CW knock offs are pretty good, the quality is not as good as Hasbro of Takara, but they work, oh yeah the Bruticus one, I am not afraid for it to break, like Mini Devastator, because I ma sure the Devastator was designed for a larger figure, so te plastic ends up thin in various figures.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah that is probably the best version of this guy. I like my little version, but that Takara one always did look tempting. Is there a Mini Bruticus?

[@banobobot]

Apparently the United Warriors Scrapper has an elbow. I’m used to these figures in Unite Warriors and Legends having new paint schemes, to be more in line with the cartoon, which I genuinely appreciate, especially the luscious silver hubcaps, but a new piece of articulation? Are you kidding me? Has-Tak was clearly pulling on our legs.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Indeed the Unite warriors had mild upgrades done to their engineering, though not a ton.

[@spiketheguy7091]

I got the UW version of this set years ago cuz of the touch-ups it had over the CW version (the better joints for the smaller lads, the flip-out visor for Devastator's head, the better paint which also gave Mixmaster's vehicle the more accurate truck foot in limb mode etc), but I kept that at my grandad's place for a bit and after he passed and my folks were moving stuff out, it got lost in the process. whoops ^^;

[@mymaskofshame]

I enjoy my CW Devistator but agree the thigh knees are horrible. I would have preferred them lower but you can see with Predaking how they got better at doing it which is making me excited for Menasor.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I hope the Menasor is good, but it's Menasor, so my expectations are low.

[@StrykerPrimeProductions]

I actually got this Devastator in the mail today, had to wait until I got out of school to mess with it, and I really like it. Now I do have some tolerance issues, tabs are overly tight on the armbots where the threads are supposed to stay in place, the tiny circular tab on the front of Hook broke and that causes the pec to split and that drives my OCD nuts, Scrapper’s arm are way too damn tight to rotate and I swear that one is just gonna sheer off, Devastator’s left elbow is HORRIBLY tight (you remember in your Fanstoys Jetfire review you said the squeaks would keep you up at night? Yeah that’s how bad his elbow is), and basically every ball joint is too loose. But hopefully I can fix those and for being $40 this is great and he’s my first ever complete combiner. Quick question, what would you recommend to loosen up Devastator’s elbow because loosening the screw doesn’t fix it?

[@dkguillotine3743]

I have the official one and ive always really liked it. I always wondered why you never talked about this figure in your Combiner wars video.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Cause I did not have it at the time. If I didn't talk about something in my retrospectives, I never picked it up, and I failed to get MOST of CW. I don't know if it was readable in the thumbnail, but I gave my self a text bubble saying "What just shot right past me" and I had Devestators arm just in frame with zoom lines on the other side of the thumbnail.

[@chriscaseyg9362]

Tempting at this scale, but yeah, that Mixmaster alt mode I'd classify as more distracting flaw than deal breaker at that price. At Titan price, I can see where the salt deposits would be on the original.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah but at this scale, and price, it's just an annoyance and not a deal breaker.

2:52 Now THAT is G1 accurate. If you’ve ever had the G1 Constructicon toys for a long while, you’ll know what I mean.

[@jaydonmagan4694]

@@PerspectiveEnd Well, mine has the opposite problem. After so many years of having it, the head became so loose to where you can’t have him standing up without his head sliding back down.

[@cheesemaster3003]

IDK If you already seen this one or not but i personally like nbk Devastator (gravity builder KO). For a combiner of His size and price he's very good imo. The worst things about the individual bots is wierd looking arms on scrapper, the grip of body builders on them all and hands that are a pain to flip out when put in wrong. They are also surprisingly light. The combined mode has some proportion and balance issues but it's not impossible to work with.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

My big problem with that set is that he's just too swole.

[@jinxedreviews]

I own the UW version of this figure and I absolutely love it. It was my favourite Titan until I got Black Zarak. Scrapper is my favourite CW figure. I sound like I'm rambling but I just love this figure

[@PerspectiveEnd]

What do you like about scrapper so much. I mean he looks good, but his transformation is very simple for obvious reasons.

[@theholo-library4020]

If you want a good Devastator, the the Oversized Ko of the Generation toy Gravity Builder, made from Jinbao, is probably the best option out there. I want it too and you can find it on eBay WITH THE UPGRADE KIT, PLUS SHIPPING FOR AROUND 200$! That's a steal.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

See everyone recommends that, but I just cant get past how Swole he is.

[@elxr9434]

My guess is that these guys were originally meant to be this size but someone at Hasbro said that the titan meant for cw needed longer to bake so they had to just upscale devy my guess is that that titan was Trypticon because itd make a lot more sense especially as when has a line EVER had more than one titan so I think this just makes more sense to me

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I don't see it being like that, this is far too small for being what they intended. Though I do agree that these were probably supposed to be closer to deluxe size, or the very least small voyager as opposed to extremely big a voyager.

[@krizilid]

I am super happy with this set especially because it scales perfectly with the rest of the cw combiners. I wish predaking had the same treatment.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah, that is the nice thing about him, he stops making the CW scale weird.

Im not a big combiner fan but this looks pretty good Althou why is scrapper the leader when he is the right leg? Like why isnt it the one that turns into the head Also I think the hook thing thats at the left of his head coud make for a cool canon

[@PerspectiveEnd]

The crane on Hook is criminally under utilized. As for Scrapper being the leg, I mean why does he have to be the head to be leader. Besides I'd think the leader would want to not be the thing everyone's going to be shooting at, plus it just means he's carrying the team on his back.

[@ExaltedArchvile]

I've been debating whether or not I should get the Combiner Wars Devastator. Those legs are kinda weird and I'm hoping if I do get this KO, none of my constructicons' limbs snap off because that would really piss me off, regardless of how cheap it is. Like for instance I got the Studio Series Bumblebee Movie Starscream and the hinge that moves the whole head assembly up snapped on one side and I've been really delicate with it ever since. But hell if it didn't piss me off.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I'm so sorry to hear that that sucks. And yeah I get why you'd be worried, the set is kind of notoriously thin in a lot of places.

Since all my other combiners are the G2 versions (barring Abominus but he's colourful enough to fit in), I'm tempted to pick up the yellow-orange version of this set... well, _was_ until I found out about the risk of Mixmaster's busted arm.

I think it's less of a risk than you might expect. The joint is Shaped like "_" but I had it rotated so it was "I" and then I was pressing on it like

So turns out X transbots is making their own devastator, I really hope somehow their QC is magically fixed but I doubt it. The only way X transbots can get my money are japanese g1 combiners (Masterpiece Scale Liokaiser when?) Anyways nice video EDIT: so I just got earthrise scorponok and well... I am sorry this figure is NOT WORTH $160! I have been really lucky with earthrise figures, guess my luck was going to run out eventually. My first issue is probably the joints, mainly the ratchet joints. Every joint below the wait down can not support the figures weight. I had it standing on the floor while I was typing this and it collapsed due to the ratchet joints in the knees. Oh man those knees...it is almost exactly like that one figure in your Dai Atlas review (Don't remember his name but the one with the very loose knees) Also, do you plan on getting legacy Metroplex?

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah I saw that, and it looks weird so far but it does seem like early renders. I've so far never had a problem with XTB QC but I only have two of their figures. Sorry to hear that. I always said I didn't want that Scorponok. I don't know about Legacy Metroplex, I have no attachment with the character, and not a ton of space.

some things as someone who bought the cw and this version this ko is acrtually slightly taller than skyfire and in my opinion scales THE BEST with the ss86 dinobots, 2 remember this was combiner wars where not too long ago the best jetfire they had was the generations one, so the fact still to this day you can say the sculpting is good, says how good it has aged BUT be careful when handling it, bc of being a ko it might have slight tolerance issues, mainly but not limited to: bonecrusher hinge joint of his arms and head, devastator chest plate wings, their pegs are massively small so any weird and rushed way might result in breakage and finally hook the peg on its legs has broken on both of my copies, it doesnt really matter at the grand scheme of this but it would be best to handle with care, and the head can break due to pegging, note that out of the things i said i only expierienced hook legs, so its not like toyworld that breaks if you look at it for too long, but better be careful with it

Daaamn, that's some abysmal luck. Mixmaster's whole arm snapped off?? I thought I had it bad with the main connector for Bonecrusher snapping off. (The connection points where the chest wing tabs into the front facing tread and for the back facing tread to connect to Long Haul's arm are fine, so Bonecrusher can still be an arm) And I still don't understand how or why the plastic is pretty craptastic here, yet pretty decent with their KO Unite Warriors Protectobots (though Hotspot is a bitch with those crazy tight joints). They botched up some things with the Combiner parts: with the regular sized CW/UW Devy, you can stash most of that stuff on Long Haul's vehicle mode, and whatever won't go there can go on the others vehicle modes. Not with this thing...I still can't figure out where the bloody hell the Combiner parts go in the vehicle modes. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️ Still...I *REALLY* like this bad boy.

It’s still green purple and silver, has 6 wheels, a cement drum, the robot and leg modes still look nearly identical to G1. Oh no! Now instead of reversing to wherever you want your cement poured you have to drive forward! Oh the huge manatee! Would people throw the same kind of fit if Long hail turned into one of those regular 6-wheeled dump trucks instead of a four wheeled earth mover? Or if Ratchet turned into an actual ambulance for once? Or if Optimus turned into a long-nosed tru-oooooooooh. Oh yeah they would. Like I get it if you don’t want it, just don’t get it. But the hate for this is unreal. Even Thew of all people complained about it.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

It's just weird, and ugly, and it's the only one that's completely wrong. Like if the whole set were different vehicles that'd be one thing, but he's stands out because he's the only one who's different. And it makes the foot wrong. The foot is supposed to be the cab of the truck.

[@arsenic774]

Where were you able to pick this up for 40? This generally is about 60 on eBay.

Well then it's gone up, it used to be 40 when I got it, maybe that's just the going rate now, but you could try checking amazon.

How is his right shoulder for rotation? On the original the Scavenger arm is too weak to hold up if he's holding the blaster in that arm. Also how well does Bonecrusher's crotch hold together?

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Bonecrushers crotch holds together ok, I've seen people talk about the crotch on the larger set, and yeah it's not a problem like that is. And Ironically scavenger is the stiffer arm. I find that he had no trouble holding any pose I've tried to get him in.

[@AngryApp]

Glad to see you cover this guy, even if it’s a knock off. I bought the hasbro one on Amazon. The first one I got had been replaced with a bat man an Superman action figures. The second one I got one of the arms broke off. The third one was fine. And they refunded my purchase and I got it for free because of the first two being as they were. I love this guy. The new age and the other one I don’t like because they cheat and use a torso with head. It looks good, but that’s not a real combiner in my opinion.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Why was it replaced by Batman?

[@AngryApp]

@@PerspectiveEnd Someone bought devastator from Amazon and put the Batman and superman action figures inside of it and taped the package back up and pretended it was still brand new. So they were able to keep the devastator by putting some toys inside and Amazon resold it as brand new. They didn’t check to make sure the person returning it was ripping them off. So the first one I bought was the one with random toys inside the devastator box.

For all the figures faults, this is definitely the best CHUG devastator on the market. I have the UW warriors version which fixes a lot of the issues on the original. You really need the official version to appreciate it because of the sheer size

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I have handled big Devestators before, and the original wouldn't be as big as that, so I think it would always come up short in that regard. I think the smaller version is good for many reasons, but that one at least Scales to regular CW Combiners.

[@Natee178]

Got the original when it came out and never hated it. The bot modes for both titan combiners were really weak. It’s like they are close to being really good but budget obviously got in their way. But the combined modes were honestly awesome. Especially after I got the DNA shoulder kit for devastator i ended up using that as my main devy and putting the toy world up. Their titan predaking’s combined mode was probably better then this one but honestly with some upgrades both are really cool in combined mode. I’m hoping SS86 blesses us with some better, more accurate and articulate bot modes, cause even if a new combiner doesn’t work as well atleast we could get a good set of bot modes. Hopefully legacy menasor does a good job in bringing the stunticons to life.

How funny it is to come back and look at this thing, despite all its atrocious flaws, in a positive light for once after the SS86 Constructicons reveals. Just the fact that this is bigger makes it better. Why was it so hard to just take Combiner Wars Devastator, give the individual bots modern engineering and articulation, and release the updated thing as a part of the SS86 line? Why did they redesign it from the ground up, wasted time and resources, and delivered a worse product years in the making (and waiting)? I would have rather gotten Voyager/Leader-sized bricks over some articulated mini bots that form a downsized Devastator that will be dwarfed by my Legacy Menasor with leg extensions. Yet another common HasTak L.
