Your so dam right, I just found out about this and yes I was so upset when they made this so dam ridiculously big! Iam glad that they have this option. I ordered this already on eBay
@@Copycat_023 admittedly no the plastic is cheaper and flimsier then I prefer. Looking forward to replacing it with the studio series figures as they release
So glad I didnt overpay for the CW Devy. Because what I was about to pay was the cost of TW Constructor for a secondhand copy. Now they reissued the original at MSRP, in addition to this set, which is WAAAAAY more attractive in scale and price for what is an older mold.
@@tydiriumhanger1320 Yeah, and then I saw a video about Fans Toys Sever while I was checking out teh Powder Primes dinobots and as they say, 'That changes everything.' And thus my interest in Hasbro and their hollow titans faded.
Nice work on the comparison between figures. I never got the CW due to silly price and that foot. I did contemplate getting the KO but that foot strikes again. Maybe one day someone will do a kit like the CW. For now, I have higher priorities. This is a non issue at present.
I have this set also, it's awesome. I love on the back of the box the hand-drawn Scavenger shovel, and it says his main enemy is Anime Man! Hilarious! Like many, I too would dig an upgrade kit. Articulating fingers are a must. The foot situation is a whole discussion in and of itself.
Upgrade kit for CW Defensor may work with him to be the same size probably for this KO Devastator. Or turn Defensor's hips how some people do to him and Bruticus to make them both a bit taller.
I like this mold I got CW Devy the day he came out at TRU I mashed up 2 kits the Perfect Effect & Shadow Fisher shoulder & forearm upgrades, led head & I custom battle damaged painted him u gotta see him.
Hello! I have a request, Kindly make a seige scale video including seige jetfire with cw combiners and cbb downsized, potp predaking. ... I need advice on which combiners to get for my siege scale collection, based on sunbow. Thankyou and kind regards
Brilliant! Always thought the 19in was way too big compared to the other combiners like Bruticus and Volcanicus. Have only "two" combiners so far. Volcanicus and one that is mostly Jazz and an Inferno. Can't decide if i want to call him "Disco Inferno" or "Jazzatron 4000"
I sold most of my loose chug to 2 local collectors in big lots. They got a deal and I got some cash for new Mps. Most of them go for what you paid and less if loose. If you sell separate it may take years. You may have luck with facebook groups, craigslist, bookoo. Trades work also but only local never trade though mail! Hope that helps.
Which one should I go for? This underscaled CW Devestator set or the DX 09 "Hulkie" oversized KO? Kinda leaning torwards the latter since I hear the joints in combined mode are very tight and snug and the plastic seems pretty good too plus apparently some die-cast bits.
Great video as always TH...this devy look like a pretty cool piece to display on my desk...I am currently saving up to get the toyworld devy (to go with my zeta superion) as I am late to the mp transformers game nd gonna have to pay th 500 dollar late tax lol...by the way can you suggest where I can purchase auto or nd decepticon stickers for my mp collection?
You are actually getting a good deal on TW Devy for $500. If you bought them when they came out I believe they were $100 each so $600. They also ship it ready to assemble because most want it for combined mode. Thanks
@@tydiriumhanger1320 I got UW Computron from my old bot store in Cali called Toy Arena they use to give me big discounts when u order things I just ordered today Flame Toys Shattered Glass Drift from bbts & I found TE Black Scourge Prime for $60 on ebay I always wait awhile for new releases because ebay sellers usually have 24 hour flash sales.
I got mine from Sirtoys for $35 without the box; sucks that the shipping cost pretty much negates anything you'd save. It's pretty nice, indeed. I really hope that they downsize the PerfectEffect or the DNA Design upgrade kits to match. As for the black squares, they're also black on the Hasbro Combiner Wars Devastator. Takara's Unite Warriors Devastator has different paint apps that are supposed to make it more show accurate, while Hasbro's is supposed to be more toy accurate...even if some of the choices Hasbro made with certain figures tend to make no sense. UW is definitely for the folks who want show accuracy, which is kinda similar to the rash that is the Masterpiece Plus Series. (UW01 Superion has Slingshot by default; CW Superion defaults to newcomer Alpha Bravo, who replaced Slingshot in the IDW comics due to Slingshot's death. UW02 Menasor defaults to Wildrider, CW has Off-road (who apparently, the mold was originally intended to be Ruckus or something). UW03 Guardian/Defensor defaults to having Groove, CW Defensor replaces him with Rook and makes Groove into a Legends class chest minion. UW07 Bruticus has a proper space shuttle Blastoff and Vortex is modified to have four helicopter blades, CW Blastoff is a Slingshot repaint and Vortex is a straight up Alpha Bravo repaint...though we eventually DID get shuttle Blastoff, it was the "reversed torso" version based on UW Shuttler (aka Movor) from the UWEX Baldigus (aka Ruination) set.) Also got the Cool Become Brave KOs of CW Groove & UW Hotspot. (It REALLY SUCKS that they didn't do the Stunticons, I need Dragstrip & Wildrider on the CHEAP!!) Hotspot...sucks. The plastic is awful, and the tolerances are crazy. Never even mind just posing Hotspot (which feels fine)...transforming him to vehicle mode or to Defensor's torso is just plain SCARY.

I collected some of the CW and other stuff before I found the Masterpiece bots. I switched over but I liked the ones I got a lot. Although I have a bunch I would sell in a heartbeat.
holly.....dog poop !! thats huge compared to the ko one !! thanks i want to buy one but im skeptical to buy the real 18 inch one !! now i know buy the ko !
This scales well with siege /Earthrise
Of course it does since it's literally CW Devestator just shrunk drown.
Your so dam right, I just found out about this and yes I was so upset when they made this so dam ridiculously big! Iam glad that they have this option. I ordered this already on eBay
Me too
We need a downsized Predaking!
I would love that. It is again too big, and the figures themselves feel like deluxes that have been blown up.
TengYang Predaking exist
Thanks for the review I just picked this up last night and I'm eagerly looking forward to having it in hand.
Has it lived up to your expectations

It all comes down to price vs quality.

As much as I love the original CW version I think this version makes way more sense to CW collectors!

Yes I do like the combiner wars figures but most of what I kept is sealed because I display MPs mostly so I understand your point. Thanks
There's a foot you can get on Shapeways for around £18, I'm tempted
@@ValkInnit For this downsized figure?
Mike Green yep
@@ValkInnit Oh now I'm definitely tempted LOL Thanks fella!

There is a 3d printed file for a downsized foot but I can not find that link

Also at 12:44 lmfao I like how you left Hotspot to be the head for Defensor, instead of using Defensor's head itself.
I like this mold I got CW Devy the day he came out at TRU I mashed up 2 kits the Perfect Effect & Shadow Fisher shoulder & forearm upgrades, led head & I custom battle damaged painted him u gotta see him.
That would be sweet! Would love to see it. Always looking forward to collection pics on Facebook "tydirium hanger toys"

Will do Jetfire and try to so many size comparisons
Get MMC Feral rex for predaking
Now that I have seen the one from Daban I can die in peace.
Apparently I think this scales well with the Dinobots
Like it my colletion devaster

Have only "two" combiners so far. Volcanicus and one that is mostly Jazz and an Inferno. Can't decide if i want to call him "Disco Inferno" or "Jazzatron 4000"
Disco Inferno for sure! Thanks
Ive always liked Devastator but I passed since I feel like he doesn't make for a good toy. The high knees and slim arms seem unfortunately necessary.
There is a guy that makes thigh extenders for the official. I want to get my hands on some. Thanks
Great comparison! I’m also trying to get rid of my CHUG to fund MP buys. Are you having any luck selling your CHUG’s. Just curious.
I sold most of my loose chug to 2 local collectors in big lots. They got a deal and I got some cash for new Mps. Most of them go for what you paid and less if loose. If you sell separate it may take years. You may have luck with facebook groups, craigslist, bookoo. Trades work also but only local never trade though mail! Hope that helps.
I found this figure for £20, there is no reason not to pick it up
Willing to sell us devastator
Which one should I go for? This underscaled CW Devestator set or the DX 09 "Hulkie" oversized KO? Kinda leaning torwards the latter since I hear the joints in combined mode are very tight and snug and the plastic seems pretty good too plus apparently some die-cast bits.
Hulkie is still way too small. Undersized KO Devy all the way.

Would have love to see him next to the titans return Triptycon. Great review.
That would make a good comparison! Thanks
not bad, but agreed it's weird they didn't include any upgrades
There is a 3d print file for a foot but still need a printer
I gpt a ton of CW series my number 1 bot from the line has to be Unite Warriors Computron.
That is the best bot of the line. Never picked it up because I never saw a good enough sale before the price went way up. Need an MP Computron! Thanks

The plastic is awful, and the tolerances are crazy. Never even mind just posing Hotspot (which feels fine)...transforming him to vehicle mode or to Defensor's torso is just plain SCARY.
12:46 is that defensor kubian?

I really need to order from Sirtoys when I find 5 things there I like! They are super cheap if you order a lot to cover the shipping!

CW is good and was the first step in the direction Hasbro is now which is great!
@@tydiriumhanger1320 Yeah, but once I dipped my toe in the Masterpiece waters that was all she wrote.
Serious question. Is this Devy the same size as the Weijiang Predaking???
The original release is about the same size but the new KO is smaller to scale with the other Combiner wars series. Hope that helps
WJ Predaking is Titan Class.....
holly.....dog poop !! thats huge compared to the ko one !! thanks i want to buy one but im skeptical to buy the real 18 inch one !! now i know buy the ko !
Im digging the content. The music however.... please make it stop!
30 dollars only at ours
Would have bought this if they KO'd the Takara version so I could have elbows on Scrapper
You reviewed Devastator but not the individual Constructicons to test the plastic quality? WTF? This review is fail.
Great point. Thanks
