- This figure was very much a landmark release when it first came out, but it garnered a lot of criticism alongside all the praise. Is it really that bad? Is there brilliance to be found within?

I swear there is just one little Corner in the backrooms where all of your missing weapon are just sitting
Probably.
Which yellow one? I have two
DX9 Hulkie: "Wanna see me get knocked off?"
"Wanna see me do it again?"*
I miss my "Read the disclaimer, I'm the other one ya bahhstahhd"
Didn't feel it was appropriate for the eulogy. It'll be back next episode
@@DrLockdown completely understandable, tbh I made the comment asap before I saw the message. So consider my complaint shelved.
Tanks for providing solid entertainment, detailed product reviews, and showcasing your unique perspectives. Good luck with your studies!
Thought about getting this set years ago when I started looking into legends. I’m honestly glad I waited for the magic square version. Those are definitely much more complex than the dx9(or most legends in general), but I think the end result is worth it for a really solid set of constructicons in all three modes
I adore the look of Long Haul in this set. It’s one of the few g1 Devastators that actually gets his look right (in my opinion).
Man the original set has a weird green I'm not used to with mine.
Oof. I got mine for 40.
Which did you get?
@@DrLockdown Don't remember, it was back in like 2018.
So excited for this video. Funnily enough I saw your post and decided to look up a Billie review and saw your video was posted 5 minutes ago
Great review as always man. Keep up the amazing work and stay safe out there. I am always surprised that Iron factory hasn't done a Devastator. Since he was in the IDW comics and their is repaint value like an orange one, yellow one, or a white and red for a shattered glass. Maybe one day after the new liokaiser comes out.
Doubtful. They never go for the predictable stuffed. They only thing you can expect from them is the unexpected
I’m hoping if they do a devestator, they’ll do the prowl version, or at least have options for it.
I saw someone on a tfw forum actually took the Newage devastator skeleton and 3d printed their own parts to do the prowl version from the comics.
@@daltonwilliams1723 I would hope for the prowl version as well as an option so you can still get the classic devastator.
13:08 let my boy be green and proud 🗣️
I just bought the KO OS Huilkie, I did not like it for some reason but couldn't put it into words. This review sums up my feelings that I could not put in words.
My stance on combiner parts forming is, it has it, alright. It doesn't amazing. I don't think combiner parts forming is bad unless it's like G1 Devastater where 50% seemed to be parts forming peices
20:22 Mixmaster Rushia isn't real, it can't hurt you. Mixmaster Rushia
In my defence, I made this before any of the allegations came out
@@DrLockdown I see
I recently have been getting into the Dr.Wu extreme warfare set and I think scale wise he works great! I’m definitely gonna be getting him into my collection!
"Cutest Dumptruck" has got to be one of the most strange compliments I've ever heard.
And I love it.
A cool well edited video. Makes learning the intricacy of transformers models entertaining.
I already have (and am happy with) the newage Constructicons but I'd still get these just to fiddle with
My G2 set is still coming. Given new age is essentially dx9 after the unique toys split, I'm eager to see how they've improved
Front end loaders come in a lot of shapes and sizes, and most scrapper's size have even bigger wheels
I'm just glad I bought the KO version (under US $20)
I've got some figures that I bought back in 2018 but I was too happy with it's size tbh. This year via 2022 I found the K.O. up-scaled version with Dev's gun (no individual bot guns) for $69!!!! That's a great buy and the quality nearly on par with the original figures as well with it being abit bigger!!! Very happy the K.O. up even more than some of the official figures that I bought years ago.
I got the Waijang version from Wish for $30 USD and… I got rid of CW Devastator for this figure. I really love this figure for what it is.
2:28 it was mostly a stand to plug all the guns so you don't lose them (lol) and looked like that so it still has a ''purpose'' when the guns aren't on it
I think similarity between Scavenger and Scrapmetal caused by the fact that both were (at least partially) inspired by Grimlock from RID
This set looks kind of adorable i kinda want it
This may go on deaf ears (pun not intended) but thanks for the better audio balancing as several videos i would watch have horrendous ear "r@pe" moments that result in my ears ringing for minutes on end or if i have youtube on my tv or laptop the audio when you have the loud vocal comedic moments can be heard around the house and sets some of my family members into a frenzy to figure out what happened or if someone was hurt.
I was actually getting complaints about the advertisements. RUclips raised the volume on the ads, so I had to compensate.
Glad to help.
@@DrLockdown No worries and it is very much appreciated.
I remember seing on Aliexpress bootleg of this devastator, but BUT it was formed from 6 MIXMASTERS ONLY! I remember sending it to my friends and laughing. BTW I have KO that perfectly scales with cor class figures, I mean individual robot modes of course.
Scrapper is my favourite ever
Waiting for legacy stunticons looks interesting
Hey I was wondering if you where you got that yellow devastator is it a ko and where did you get it?
There's a part of me that does want to get this guy. I'm really into small Transformers and I love the Constructicons. With the problems shown though I'm not sure it's worth it. Might keep an eye out for the Newage ones.
Nah. It was fugly then, and it's fugly now. And the Hook was handled even more laughably badly than the one from the Maketoys "Giant"/"Giant Type-61" set (the Devastator head literally hung out on the back of one of Hook's legs). As for cheap, I went with Cool Become Brave "Kubian", that downsized KO of CW Devastator...got it for $50 USD shipped. (That was part of like a $90 order from Sirtoys that also included the Cool Become Brave 1:1 KOs of CW Groove & UW Hotspot)
for the next legiondary marathon you should talk about the animated activators
I don't consider them small enough
@@DrLockdown what about Bumblebee
If the Longhaul knees were balljointed or have a swivel connection right above the knee, it would've fixed the articulation issue that you always couldn't let slide 😂🤣
Definitely, but I also understand stability is an issue. A ball joint may have been too loose to keep the combined mode standing.
The solution isn't as simple as that, but I still think they should've figured something out
Thanks to this video I am now the proud owner of a 16usd aliexpress knockoff of this set, with which my only real complaint would have to be loose joints.
I have a knock off set of this set and omg the paint job I did is sooo sick it looks great
Interesting figure. Not really my thing, Newage's interests me more. Thanks for the marathon! Till next time!
If Pat Lee can even be credited with dull surprise
20:21 "pretty flat"
proceed to paste rushia face on it
And a sound effect of her's too
Quick question, you know anywhere i could get the MS Menasor leg bots for a good price? I have the other two on the way but i can't find thenlm
Sadly I don't. I bought mine ages ago
Waiting for legends scale Autobot combiners. The cons have like five juggernauts on their side 😳
Zeta is doing a superion
@@DrLockdown Awesome
From what I've got of newage, overcomplex transformation is their MO.
They think they're doing MP, but with legends scale
I've only had that problem a their st straxus/Galvatron. The rest has been buttery smooth
It makes for figures like their Mista, AKA DOTM Soundwave.
But for Legends? They shouldn't do Legends with that level of engineering. Lol
I think they walk the line quite well, and I own almost all of their moulds
@@DrLockdown I dunno. I've got the seeker, and there's bits of the transformation that really should be done on a bigger figure
I think the seeker conversation is buttery smooth
Cool
Oh shattered glass goldbug would piss you of as its the same thing as cliffjumper.
I mean it's the same mould. Obviously it would. It's why I didn't buy it
@@DrLockdown and the back or the alt mode is basically used as a shield in robot mode like with cliffjumper only difference is the head and colour even the weapons the same at least with sg megatron and sg starscream some effort was made but sg goldbug use cliffjumper mold just change the head and colours.
I know. I reviewed cliffjumper ages ago
@@DrLockdown just hope they dont screw up sg Soundwave as hes supposed to be realised this year.
Hey drlockdown what do you feel about the legacy stunticons and how they combiné
I honestly dont like how the split and get to the arms, I think thats just lazy
I've seen it work on magic square menasor. It works great in person
@@DrLockdown I guess but I dont like it being a big robot with cars in his extremetis
Aw shit, here we go again.
I actually had/have(?) a KO of hulkie, and it was okay, but I would say to anyone shopping for one to be weary of sets that substitute some parts for diecast metal. It could get completely painted to color match which can throw the joint tolerances and cause plastic stressing.
(Listens closely to bgm in perceptor tank mode praise moment at tail end of robot mode discussion) ...why do those tones sound familiar? Is it the first nichijou OP? Where is that sound clip from?
It is. The sound effect is just a generic sound effect
you'd be better off getting the ko from aliexpress which go for less than 20 usd.
28:15, "I was also tired 'whe'? What is whe?
thoughts on legacy so far. I’m excited but a little nervous
Cautiously optimistic
@@DrLockdown it’s gonna be hard to measure up to wfc but I need that Bulkhead
well we already know the Legacy stunticons are going to part form.
I know
@@DrLockdown but when 3rd party does it everyone loves it
Not necessarily. Look at the backlash for the new age version
7:11 is that a knock off titans return devistator down scaled to match the other combiner wars robots hight in g2 colors ?
Yep. Got it on the cheap
@@DrLockdown A: Me want
B: how do you have time to respond to everyone
I don't get THAT many comments
@@DrLockdown Is it good? I mean, the plastic, tolerances, etc. Because i really want to get one.
@@Ian_S. Not really
I'm surprised you have little interest in Newage's Devastator crew!
No I am quite interested. I've pre-ordered and paid off the G2 version. I'm just saying most people find it dubious
Quick question. Is there supposed to be no audio for the first 25 seconds?
Yes. It's a eulogy
I was momentarily confused as well but I think anything but silence would come off as pretty disrespectful to a damn cool person.
@@DrLockdown understandable, have a good day
They feel like proto core class
Core class is basically legends class
When will you make a new diagnosis insanity video?
When an idea that's good enough presents themselves. They don't typically do as well, so I don't usually do as many
$250 AUD… damn… got mine $20 USD on Ali Express
Probably a bootleg, which is fine.
Yeah the original prices for these were something else
When are you gonna do the top best and top worst figures?
Next month. The worst video is fully filmed and recorded. The best one is recorded but only 15% filmed. I need to get ahead on some filming before my figures go into storage for the move
@@DrLockdown Ok. I really love your top best and top worst videos.
Chowder
I just like saying this guy's name
here's what I don't get
Why is generation toy gravity builder knocked off so much like hulkie was the first 3P legends combiner but what did gravity builder do to warrant that many bootlegs
I'm guessing they just got access to the original files. It really depends on what companies can get their hands on. A full 'mould copy' job is really expensive, so not a lot of companies do that. Most just take whatever files they can come across and pump out as much shit as possible
@@DrLockdown man sounds like what Activision does
Also just to give my 2 cents on how magic square menasor looks from what I've seen it looks like they put no effort into the actually combination at all like when the whole combined mode is just a giant partsforming piece the individual robots just attach to like armour it's a straight up dealbreaker in my eyes
Like I don't hate combiner partsforming when it's kept within reasonable limits like CW Devastator or any Hasbro combiner or Iron Factory Bruticus but MS Menasor and Newage Devastator just go way too far with it baerly having the individual figures actually combine which is the whole point of a combiner
Wow that got a bit ranty I apologize I just had a lot to say there
*Edit from 2023* I don't think this anymore especially not with regards to menasor
It does seem like there's no effort, but in person trust me: it's a work of art
Great review,I have plenty of knock offs of this figure I think he has his charm
He definitely does. They don't make toys like this anymore
What about the MMC Combaticons
I mentioned them in the video
@@DrLockdown have you heard that the Star Wars expanded universe
Nope. Not a huge star wars fan
@@DrLockdown how about reading the thrawn trilogy you don't need to read every single expanded universe book an existence oh yeah
I don't really care for that kind of stuff.
Am I really one of the very few that doesn’t care about gaps in vehicle modes
I'd rather the vehicle mode remain cohesive. Feels wrong otherwise
I do have the ko of this and I feel like he's good for the ecstatic I'm going for with my collection thanks for this marvelous review
Also 45:21 FUCK!
Yeah they rebranded into new age and changed the designers
@@DrLockdown good news for my wallet I guess 😒 does this mean a legend size predaking is no more?
Eyup
@@DrLockdown
I personally won't lose sleep over it but still what a shame.
Also I've got paper and cardboard I'll live
Cool
Cool
