    I say the final one, with the larger bots. The smaller components would only work with a generally smaller Devastator, but the larger parts capture the traditional proportions very well.

    However, I still say that ROTF mold is wrong for this bash. The bulldozer mode looks great, but the robot is really out of place.

    Is that a Japanese Superlink Scorponok? The colours look different.

    I love the choice of the Doubledealer head for this Devastator btw. It looks perfect!

    i think the first one on the left even tho the arms look a little small they are balanced well and could be bulked up a little further down the line , i also dont think any rotf bots would suit your take on devastator , well done for doing a original version of a popular custom cant wait to se how this develops

    yes i like the final one too.

    maybe i can replace a head for ROTF Rampage.

    ha ha, it's a KO Doubledealer, bigger than the original one. it's the biggest head i can find.

    I think it's more than just the head for ROTF Rampage. The whole robot mode is very... strange, alien, quadrupedal, with lots of jagged forms. He just seems to clash with the more boxy, traditional style of the rest of your team.

    Like I said in the other thread, what about reconditioning that Scorponok into a Bonecrusher? He'd even have the track legs of the G1 character.

    Of course, that would mean you'd have to find another midsection... but considering the one you have is a bit long and narrow in the hips, leading the legs to look a bit too long. You might be able to find something shorter and wider that will work better...

    Just my thoughts. :)

    I say either 4 or 5 but I like the 4th one better. The forearms look small though.

    i'd also say 5, keep it as you had it before. the rotf rampage is gonna need major smoothing and modding if you are trying to make it fit in. you might want to look into the e: scorponok idea as mentioned by smog. i like the new forearms.

    I mean instead of using the ROTF Rampage (who is rather small and strange looking), you could use modify Scorponok into a bulldozer, and use him as G1 Bonecrusher for this Devastator. He is supposed to be one of the strongest, toughest Constructicons, so it would be good to make him bigger and more brutish, I think.

    You know... Bonecrusher:
