I"m getting him but waiting for Takara.. so far the green on this looks a bit dark, I think Takara will go for a more lighter green color ( the difference is similar to Herc vs Green Giant's color scheme)

As I understand it, this will be about 17-18in tall.. I think it'll be taller than TFC's offering and be about the size of one of the larger combiners, such as Warbo's Bruticus.

Sad to say while I was initially enthusiastic for it, even considering getting the hasbro version first, some of the pictures have shown that the plastic seems quite thin and if I'm going to pay that much for it, I'm going to want the Takara one.

im not sure about..i dont have the hercules for comparison.. but if you look at youtube during toyfair 2015 in new york its quite big and handsome.

here the link that i watched about the size https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otjXRb8S02g

i don't have 3rd party Devastator as well but I think this should toppled 3rd parties slightly more in terms of height? From youtube if you find "Dan & Pixel", there is a thorough interview with the Hasbro designer in respect of the Devastator and from there you can see, this thing is huge. Some contemplated that it stands just slightly lower then Metroplex and we all know Metroplex is seriously huge. Both Metroplex and Devastator is in the "Titan Class" so expect very little difference between them.

My only worry now if it could sit well in my Detolf shelf without remove a glass partition =O

usually the only differences between hasbro and TakTom is on the painting finishing right? the price estimated for TakTom?

so far, what TakTom has done to its Unite Warriors line is putting back in the original G1 combiner members instead of giving in to the IDW counterparts, hits and misses but since Hasbro's Devastator has no IDW influence (Prowl's head, thank gawd!) so there will be no changes in members as far as I am concern UNLESS they decided to to swap out the retarded Mixmaster and put in the real Mixmaster with the original orientation (which i really hope they do but unlikely).

color wise, TakTom has only impressed me on what they did with Superion. Menasor is *meh*.

i'm not expecting much difference between TakTom and Hasbro's Devastator but still, I'd like to see it before making hasty decisions XD

Sin7 The only figures I have now is comparing the Hasbro Superion/Menasor with TakTom's Superion/Menasor and if you put it on paper, TakTom seems to be a little cheaper.

The calculation is as follows:-

(Toy Shops)
Hasbro Deluxe : RM70.00 each
Hasbro Voyager : RM120.00 each

So:
[4 x RM70.00] + [1 x RM120.00]
= RM400.00

A complete set of combiner costs RM400.00 for Hasbro.

TakTom's Unite Warriors costs about RM350.00 for complete set but probably because of pre-order perks. Retail price is about the same as Hasbro.

If you intend to pick them up from ToysRus then it will be way more expensive because they retail their deluxes at RM79.00 each and voyager at RM149.00 each?

So, I am expecting that TakTom's Devastator may be a tad cheaper than RM680.00, maybe RM650.00 but with better paint job application.

One more factor to consider is that the waiting period for TakTom is longer. Hasbro's Devastator is expected ready for delivery in June/July. I'm expecting TakTom's to be about 3 months later?

TRU definitely is not the best place to buy TF now, at leasy hypermarkets might price them more competitively during sales time. support your local toy shops people!
