Honestly I don’t think we give enough credit to the people who create these transformations. Micheal Bay has some crazy Robot designs and being able to convert a vehicle to Bays robot forms is absolutely Amazing. Shout out to the engineers 🙌🏾
Yeah Bay's Transformer's transformation it's a scrap, a pieces of metal, a pieces what are holding from one place to another. Sorry I forgot one word at final and final looks like what, I'm kazakh.
Anyone remember that mini Devastator that came out several years ago? I noticed that this guy's transformation is terrifyingly similar to the micro-version
So is Overload, most of these are pretty much over-engineered KO versions of already existing toys, with the exception of Split, Bomber and Paranoider lol
I saw this on another person channel and this figure is huge and almost movie accurate 👍. Also nice review Edit: also i think devil savior (or Troublemaker) will be bigger than a 3a dlx figure.
Guys, you have to realize the robot modes were the least seen in the movie, so of course, they'd sacrifice the robot modes for the combined mode and vehicle modes, and it looks beautiful.
Highly disagree, robot mode was barely shown in movie, and studio series ONLY had better robot modes. The vehicle and combined modes of this line are almost identical to the movie, the studio series's body is too skinny, devy was chunky in the movie. I will say now, this is my opinion, and you are welcome to disagree.
@Richard Miranda Sorry but I disagree with you. I am pleasantly surprised about this comment section. it’s rare that I see that much respect for different opinions for 5 comments in a row. I did indeed enjoy the video 😉
I can't believe the SS version is almost the same size as Optimus. Optimus was the size of his face in the movie! Definitely gonna get the Devil Saviour version. Thank you for the comparison I appreciate it
I love the details and everything on him, but when it is combined with Mixmaster the combined form looks like a giant sitting chiken, mainly for the transformation of Scavenger's arms lol
@@PrimeVsPrime Robot mode isn’t that good. Definitely weakest mode out of the 3. I do totally agree with you on both vehicle & combined modes, both look incredible. Combined mode looks even better when you put Mixmaster’s combined mode on top of it.
The scale between this figure and split kills this for me. Split (mixmasters) cab is just way too big in comparison. Giant Axe needs to be 1.5x bigger to be in scale with split. The SS was closer to the right scale.
Cool review! I think there's a lot to like here, but the robot mode proportions being off makes this a dealbreaker for me. The Hasbro one had excellent robot mode proportions and details, but this one wins in the other two modes.
I just got my Smash today. Freakin' loving it. Made my pre-order for this beast. I can't wait to get all of em. Probably display them in robot mode individually and I will display my SS in combined mode with the DNA add ons.
the wheel on the back in vehicle mode are meant to act as the piece the throws all the dirt behind the vehicle, because in real life the vehicle has that.
It’s like they took the legends figure and updated, which kind of sucks. SS is better in the robot mode and vehicle, but ds has the better combine mode which seems to be the case with the others. That said 1/3 modes looking better than studio series doesn’t justify the price in my opinion.
The transformation for Giant axe from construction vehicle mode to robot mode reminds me of the legend class scavenger you know the small combiners into devastator but giant axe is the legend class scavenger but bigger and improved.
He has such a beautiful vehicle mode in comparison to the Studio Series version, but maaaan does the robot mode suffer for having to combine together. Wish they could have figured out a way to expanding the wheels in robot mode or something
They literally got the basic mold of this figure from the legends devestator the wheel store the exact same way, the transformation is also pretty damn close if not exact, not the combined mode however that is entirely different
Fantastic review as always. I do appreciate that they took the original legends devastator design and upscaled it and loaded it with added parts and detail. However you do see some drawbacks due to that. Scavenger definitely takes the brunt of the “simplistic” design choices of the legends engineering. Those wheels and head are TINY.
The only inaccurate part with the Devil Savior version of Scavenger is that there's suppose to be two joints or two wheel holders(the thing that holds the wheel)in the wheel part but there is only one holding it and the wheel looks flat in this version,but other than that the figure looks great
The only thing that disappoint me the most about SS Devastator is that the lack of head articulation.. It limits the poses that Devastator can make.. Other than that, it is still looks good...
The robot mode is not accurate. The studio series figure was more accurate. This robot mode is more of an upscale, complete overhaul of the legend class figure from the 2009 Wal-Mart exclusive Devastator( which was also sold individually packaged supposedly). The vehicle is slightly better and the combined mode is the same as his robot, big overhaul of the legend class figure. Also we have DNA Design to thank for an upgrade kit containing better panels and a grinding piece.
It's looks pretty good so far. Remember, when it comes to a team, there's always that one horrible Transformer member that kind of ruins the whole vibe
@@vickerandflips8061 I meant for the figures, my favorites are the Constructicons. This version and the Generation Toy version. Defensor is next, the last team member that I'm waiting for and he's the blue fire truck, I forgot his name. Got the TransformMission Menasor version. Bruticus it's next on my list
I’d say Devils saviour looks way better in Vehicle mode but Studio series looks a lot better in robot mode. Maybe not in terms of detail but accuracy and proportions
this figure is kind of like an upscaled version of the legends class figure! just look at the transformation into robot mode! edit: oops... someone already said that...
I got one question. You know those 4 red pieces of extra parts that came in the box. Are those replacement parts if any of those piece breaks?? Mine some how snapped off 🤷🏻♂️ i didnt force it when combining into the form of the shoulder/arm mode
Aww man :( Thank you though! And keep up with the good videos! You and others like emgo, benscollectable, inspired me to collect 3rd party transformers and much more!!
Yeah, it sucks when that happens, I suggest using part seperators and to look at reviewers' transformation cycles to make sure you aren't doing anything wrong, as they usually point out potential stress points in the transformation.
Be careful with this figure, especially if you are buying second-hand! The sliding joint in the center of the figure is extremely tight and you dont have a lot of leverage to grab onto while moving it. I ended up permanently damaging my copy trying to move it into place. The bit of the treads that rotates outwards also stripped clean off its screw during my first transformation. I wound up buying a second copy because all of the damage done was irreparable. HANDLE WITH CARE!
They probably designed these figures long before the Studio Series versions!! (that’s why this is basically an upscale of the Legends Class Scavenger and their Not Long Haul is basically an over engendered/upscale of the original 2009 Voyager Class ver.)
@@mattimusprimal637 either way he doesn't actually look too terrible, especially considering his level of complexity and the fact he has to not only transform but also combine

For me I like this strange and "rare" alien robots design. The human style body is boring. I want see this bizarre designs
Micheal Bay Was SERIOUS when he wanted the Transformers to be alien like
Thats exactly why i like the Bayverse Designs, they look more realistic than just Fan service like Reused G1 models except updated

cant wait for the mechanical alliance version, that thing is gonna be massive

This is probably one of the most exciting line of 3rd party’s to me since constructicons are my favourite team in the decepticons.

To be completely honest Scavenger always has something wrong with him in his vehicle mode
not a big fan of this dude, i think in robot mode the studio series is better, better proportionned Good review ; )
I agree kind a looks a little weird
I agree with you mate studio series have better robot mode while Devil Savior have better combined mode
I agree, studio series is wayy better

Way too small for Masterpiece. The head has to be as big as Prime.

@@allwillbewell916 Nightmare of SCALE in ZA WARUDO!!!
Eh, I respectfully disagree. The head of devastator was pretty big, this is pretty accurate, way more than the studio series.
Bro I’ve seen some huge ass mixing vehicles down here like double the size of regular ones and I think that split is one of those big 2x sized ones
@@scuffed_chicken8394 the cab size is too large. The cab is that of a standard cement mixer like the one in the movie.

In all seriousness it’s not half bad, but the kibble is insane
I think he might be a titan class if all the constructicon combine
STUNNING!! This and a SS 86 version will look amazing together.
Is it me or is this very reminiscent to the legends class devastator's scavenger
I always thought so as well. Even Split as well.

very detailed and movie accurate figure
I honestly hate these devil savior constructicons. Imo the SS constructicons are way better for what they are.
Even if the robot mode is not as accurate, I can’t say it doesn’t looks gorgeous when it combines
