it's not that mixmaster is backwards, it's just that he is a completely different type of vehicle mode. he is now a front discharge mixer

Pattonproductions you’re not just wrong, you’re stupid
I absolutely love devastator especially g1 devastator. This is a must have for me especially for my first combiner I probably won't get this though
Mixmaster is a front mixer, I kinda like that new alt mode for him. I don't think he looks backwards. Also the chest pieces I use as swords
I was looking around and there were some dudes that said G1 Devastator was PG 13 which I think was ageist. I'm happy that you still review these guys, really.
I had a G1 Devastator, and it was big when it came out. this is massive. If I had the money I would definitely get one.
I’m so excited to see what the Studio Series version will look like
Hey Optibotimus! You CAN rotate the waste when the truck bed is tapped in! I got mine in yesterday and have been messing not with it. You can rotate the waste with the backpack tabbed in. You can't rotate it all the way around, but you can rotate it.
Everything is a lot more expensive here in Peru. Right now, the Takara version is selling for roughly $406 (3.2 exchange rate, list price is 1,300 soles). I really want it eventually. I just got back into Transformers since my childhood back in December 2016 and have been collecting slowly for just over a year. He is certainly on my wish list, and I appreciate these fantastic reviews.
Man most people would make a twenty minute video but you take the time to describe everything. So keep up the good work and you are awesome

"Constructicons, merge for the kill!"
I would love to get this set but I really don't have the money and im out of space for stuff, I guess I could pack up some of stuff put in storage....
HOLY CRAP! The size difference between Superion and Devestator is COMICAL, LOL! He's like up there with Unicron!
Great job. Even though I own this figure and have done my own review, not to mention its late here, I wound up watching the whole review. So definite kudos.
Perfect Effect is making something that you can slide on the back of Mixmaster to make it look like the front and you don't have to take it off EVER! I think it slides over those little things on Devastators left toe (Mixmaster).
I got mine yesterday and I love it!! I began collecting transformers again with the combiner wars series. Couldn't think of a better time to start collecting again!!
The size comparison between the Combiner Wars Devastator and the G1 incarnation is hilarious. Talk about little brother.
I really loved the review on him it looks like Hasbro was more focus on Devastator . I think most people are going to displayed combine anyways
Your video really helped me out transforming my devastator from car to robot to combiner modes. Thanks!
Devastator was always nice to see. This is the Decepticon version. I always had them in my memory as an Autobot... Am I totally wrong with that ? Furthermore; maybe you know this. I once saw a huge Autobot in a small toy-store which was in his disguise form a building crane. And once flipped to robot-mode it would be just as huge, if not bigger, then this one... Do you know the name of that bot ? And is there a newer version from it ?
while this is a redesign for mixmaster. Some Concrete mixer trucks do unload from the front. I would know, I used to drive one. So he’s technically NOT backward by this design. It’s just happens to be a new design. Speaking on the set though... I don’t think this is really worth the super high price he goes for. Sure you get a bunch of voyager figures that turn into a titan sized figure, but, they are super limited. Separately they aren’t all that appealing. So you just have to keep him in his combined mode. Still a cool design though. Great review! Very detailed!
I liked Bonecrusher in TF Devastation because he had a drill on top of him and when he transformed the drill went on his left arm
Awesome review Paul! Devastator is so big that he cant be contained by conventional Optibotimus displays. I'm in the minority, but if I get him, I will display Mixmaster's vehicle mode back as the front. IMO with the smokestacks and the "toes", it looks cooler to me. Anyone else feel that way? I find it funny that Scavenger, the most insecure of the Constructicons has the best figure IMO.
Amazing figure and amazing review, can't wait to get hold of the Takara one for my collection. Thanks Optibotimus!
Love this figure i wish i had one 😧
Lol I thought you were going to say: and when you combine them, you get one huge problem
Before I start my one hour video, I have to say I'm pleased that it is a one hour video. I hope this is as in-depth as your bruticus review.
A lot of concrete trucks dump from the front now a day it's easier to maneuver and much more safe. Maybe is a slightly updated look
Thank you optibotimus you have given me the best idea of what i can get on my birthday 26th
I'M FIRST!!! Now that that's done....watch the video before saying something :P

***** hey if your going to get the takara version maybe you will sell this to me and maybe you'll sign it:) and if not I get it it's ok.
Honestly, Scrapper is the only Constructicon I like, and while it would be cool to have such a massive figure I could never justify the price. The Perfect Effects add on kit PC-07 will add some pretty decent arm/elbow replacements and have G1 guns too so you don't have to get the Takara version for some added poseability.
very nice optibotimus i appreciate your 1 hour work and i already suscribed and liked thanks!
1. I actually watched the full hour!!! Lol & Nothing's wrong with having a long review Paul, unlike some people that criticize you over that, which I won't criticize you for, so...keep at it Paul! :) 2. As far as I know (I hate to be a G1-er here...), but I remember with the toys (not the show) that Devastator was just as tall as Menasor, Defensor, & Superion, if any of the combiners that were the tallest, it was Predaking, & that's how I remember it back in the G1 toy line...wish they could've done that & make Predaking the tallest instead of Devastator, which should've been 6 deluxes, which wouldn't of bothered me...ugh....oh well... 3. Awesome figure to review Paul, anyways, I've been thinking about getting the figure, but seeing more & more reviews from Titan Devastator makes me want it more & more! Lol Maybe I'll get him soon this year since back in the 90s when I was a kid, never did complete nor did I really combine Devastator because I broke the pieces off from that figure, which was a real bummer...:/ 4. Gotta admit though, in every individual alt mode, it honest does work with the other Combiner Wars figures. I'm surprised though on leader of the team, whereas his legs kinda transform like the aerialbots do, which really stunned me & surprised me. o.o Which I kinda liked how that worked. 5. As for Takara's version, I know they fixed the bots & gave them elbows, which I appreciate, who knows when they'll release theirs...but I can go with Hasbro's & probably wouldn't bother me at all, regardless if he doesn't have elbows, #heckit, even the G1 versions didn't have elbows, which is actually fine with me, in all honesty. All in all, great hour long review of Combiner Wars Titan Class Devastator Paul, really enjoyed the video, was really informative, inspires me to pick one up when I get the money, perhaps after I get a PS4. Haha Keep up the good work on your reviews my good sir! ;)

done writing the essay😂😂 lol i do agree tho
Great review Optibotimus. Man devastator looks awesome but im sad that Hasbro went and cut corners with it in some areas instead of blowing out of the park. but what annoys me a bit more is that randomly they decided to make Devastator the biggest of the group of combiners yet everyone will just be taller than a leader class figure which means i will not be able to make Bruticus vs Devastator in reference to one of the G1 episodes. But my real question is will Hasbro do titan class Omega Supreme to go with this guy or will he remain forever alone with no one to rival him? I might skip the Hasbro version and go for the Takara version for the improvements that its offering or maybe ill skip them entirely. Its a nice looking figure, but with no proper place to go with its CW set as well there is no figure to rival him it makes him an off one to place and i really doubt either Hasbro or Takara will do a Titan class Omega Supreme to go with this guy.

Mixmaster is not backwards there basing it on a MODERN cement hauler/pumper where as the g1 is based on a late 70's model cement mixer, there based on 2 totally different vehicles.
I think this is your largest review yet! Awesome. Also, did anyone else notice that this is the only G1 team that has the leader not be a body part?

one thing i notice is that the combiner wars series seems to be a little less complex and use less quality plastic than someother say, G1 toys. i'm no expert, but i'd say it's because of the engineering of the combiner port.
I got this guy in the mail yesterday and he's AWESOME! Great review btw
Thank you Paul for doing this video. I'm sure it took a lot of time and effort. I just got mine in the mail yesterday but haven't played with yet do to my work schedule. I agree the individual figures are lacking in some respects but the whole reason for the set Devastator is amazing. This is the update I've wanted for years. As a G1 fan I am thoroughly satisfied. I may splurge and also get the Takara version but if I don't I'm very happy with what Hasbro did. The only thing I want is the upgrade set with the alternate Prowel head so I can recreate scenes from the IDW comics in my display. This is going to look amazing squaring off with my SDCC combiners hunters set.

They went with a realistic, modern day design that's commonly used for cement trucks (it has to do with efficiency and ease of use for one man operations or something), so that's why the position of the barrel is different.

Manage to get the last one in tri county in Cinti before the scalpers ...And I'm going for the upgrade kit for his hands and I'm never taking my Devastator apart.....Might pick up Takara version.
AWESOME detailed review! You get this figure for Devastator. The issues you brought up with each robot have to do with the price point Hasbro had to get it to for the U.S. release. As we know, Japan has more of a collector's market so they are not as limited but again for the price we get an AMAZING Transformer! The big question is how does Devastator scale next to MP Grimlock and Fanstoys Scoria? Can we finally recreate the attack on Autobot City from Transformers the Animated Movie? If so, to me, that is worth the price alone. Thanks again for this great review!
One problem I thought of is if one figure breaks you're sol, unless you can return it to the store and get a new one within a certain time or maybe find the broken constructicon on ebay? that's just one problem I see with selling this as a set.
Scrapper doesnt need more stability, Hercules and Giant are very stable with elbow joints... Just for saving money, but the look of all of them is great, Hasbro really did a good job with the cartoon/toy accuracy of the G1 Devs

Scrapper's arms don't bend in to form the heels. They stand straight, having only a straight, slightly thin(compared to the combiner) for a heel. Herc has a friggin block. Devy has this arm thing.
The Takara version fixes the problems and improves on more that what you stated.
In the world of the transformers, nothing is what it seems. Meet the constructicons. Six evil robots that transform into one mechanical giant.
I really want this guy but I for my personal taste must resist the urge until the Takara one comes out, thanks for the info on the differences If I bought the Hasbro one and found out about the Takara release I would have regretted not waiting
Mine comes tomorrow - very excited
great review you really did do a great job on it
I am now imagining what it would be like if they made a Predaking that is this big.
Anyone else notice the resemblance between Mixmaster and Beast Wars Inferno? ... Just saying.... awesome review, I can't wait to get mine any day now. I think I'll have to buy the upgrade kit from iron factory to fix Mixmaster.
Mixmaster is a Oshkosh series cement mixer for his alt mold ,he's not backwards the actual real life truck is a front expelling cement mixer
Mine came in the mail today. Been messing around with him ever since he came!
Well, they do actually have individual weapons, tough. the big guns, forearms and chest of Devastator turns into individual ones.
Would have loved to see him compared next to Armada Unicron... if only because I have him, but missed out on most of the wave 1 + 2 CW sets...

Thanks for the fantastic review! It sounds like people are waiting for Takara, or comparing this to Hercules, but for the price point, I do think they did a great job. I'd love to have something like Hercules. As a single dad with two kids though who can't justify spending the money for that, Hasbro's Devastator really just made the kid in me who could only look at the G1 box in the store and dream very happy. Ah, my poor co-workers... they get to watch the transformer collection on my desk grow just a bit more on Monday :D
I love it. I got mine on Monday!!!!!!! One of the best Transformer I have. I was such a little school girl when it came in!!!
I cant believe that this review its been a year since i watched it when it was uploaded
This is why I'm sticking with the smaller combiners. Yeah, they don't look exactly G1, but that's what makes them great. That and smaller figures usually have more care put into them when it comes to marketing. Bigger toys have fewer joints and articulation. That's true for any line of toys. Yeah, the smaller lines has a bunch of remolds, but so far those remolds have been really well done. Cyclonus, Motormaster, and soon Prowl, Swindle, and Hound.

+Skullheart still not a fan of the choice of car they are using for Smokescreen...yes he is a brother to Prowl...but Smokescreen wasn't a cop car and they are still using the Streetwise/Prowl mold instead of the original Dead End/Brake-Neck mold. atleast for the roof section...they could still use the rest of the figure just revert it back to the original mold for the roof to get rid of the light bar...i am sure if they did a Bluestreak figure they would still use the Prowl mold also due to them being brothers (or atleast the fact they used the same figures for G1...and most toylines).

***** Actually did. Watched the entire video as well as others reviews on it. Tell me how I'm wrong by stating that the Devastator set, the single figures, have more articulation than the deluxes released in the Combiner Wars so far. Also, how exactly did you make the assumption that I didn't watch the video?
Those that think Mixmaster is backwards, don't know modern concrete mixers. The barrel slopes front to back because concrete gets poured out the back. It was a redesign from older concrete mixers.
@deanprowell7947
5 жыл бұрын
Actually, Mixmaster here is a Front-Discharge mixer.The concrete is poured out the front because it is easier to drive up to a construction site that way.
Hoo boy... that's big. Some of the individual robots are a bit disappointing though. But this is still a must buy for me!
That is a big beautiful figure! And pretty good articulation fora combiner!
I think that being that Superion is a robot totally formed by jet planes on the helicopter they should have equaled in size as Devastator especially being that the main body was a Concorde passenger plane but then again I'm a scale nut
hey there was wondering about something dealing with the size of this figure set. i was wondering was the scale between Devistator and other combiner teams this big of a difference? was he actually this massive compared to the others? or was this one actually supposed to be scaled more for MP purposes but released as a CW character due to the fact that that is the most recent toyline and he is a combiner?
Assuming I don't get enough for a PS4, I may pick up Devastator over the holidays if I can get my hands on him. Looks pretty good... the only issue will be where to put him once I've got him combined :P
LOL, when your modern incarnation makes your original figure look like a Mini-Bot in comparison!
Do you think this will scale with my MP10 or any other masterpiece figures? I'd love to display this next to my Masterpiece Optimus Prime and I'm not sure about the scale
Wow. I had g1. And it looks like a gi joe figure next to him. Lol. Amazing.
How does this massive guy scale with masterpiece? I would like to know mostly about MP-8 grimlock and Devastator
Cool review I need one. How does it compare to Hercules?
I think my only problem with the figure is devestator's arms. They should be a little longer.
I always wanted a combiner. Geez, they are complicate but awesome. And what about the bullet train team? They have a toy?
I noticed that scavenger is a forward transformer and not a backwards transformer like the original him and his toy.
i love your opinion and your review,keep it up Optibotimus!
I wish that they had a story ark that shows you what it's like inside the mind of devastator
Any chance you'll be doing an update with some of the various upgrades that are out there? Would love to get your take on some of them :)
Nice review optibotimus. Keep it up
Quick question but how does cw devastator compare with Hercules or cw menasor (with motor masters fixes) and cw defensor? Also what does everyone think about wave 4 being the optimus maximus wave even though the figures are repaints and head retools of the stunticons? Great review optibotimus can't can't wait for more!
longhaul looks like there was an attempt at the transformers animated Dirt Boss but then they realized it was supposed to be Longhaul
In your opinion what is the best devastator ? the Hercules or the one ridden :)
Hey Paul, what do you think of the Perfect effect upgrade set for this figure?
Is Longhaul Leader class type? He looks like it, when you think about it
awesome review as always Paul. but after watching your review, I have decided to stay with my TFC Hercules as my definitive Devastator. Somehow I feel, TFC Combiners like Hercules, Ares and Prometheus compliment Hasbro's Combiner Wars figures perfectly. This Devastator is HUGE, not doubt about that, but he looks too toyish to me.
Finally a combiner that isn't made from repaints/ retools
to be honest , it looks sorta cheap but awesome if that makes sense ? i think the wheels being clip on types makes it look like a two dollar figure maybe the takara one will improve it
I'd love to see what the add on set does to this guy.
