    Hey,

    got some Excavators today, i know there are already photos in here but I think these are more trailer accurate.

    Thought I would share more pics of him, these ones being transformed more closely to what he looks like in the trailer, before, during and after smashing the bridge.

    I have been told that devy will actually be 6 robots, 4 voyager and 2 deluxe. Maybe there is a 7th source doesn't know about.

    This guy must be called either SCAVENGER or STEAMHAMMER

    Here is my LAST ONE on auction on ebay

    Here are some photos of the voyager class toy.

    It looks better with the wheels down in it's pseudo motorcycle mode but I can't honestly say that I really like it, at least not on it's own.

    Since you have it now can you please tell us whether it can actually stand up on it's own or does it require careful balancing?

    Edit: 4 voyagers and 2 deluxes fits the supposed $100 price tag perfectly so that certainly seems credible.

    I dont understand why such a large toy has such crappy molding.

    the shovel could easily have been made to turn into a hand, what gives?

    VERY cool.

    Although I wonder about the whole "seventh Constructicon" rumor.

    At first I wasn't really impressed. But after seeing the teaser trailer I've really warmed up to this bot.

    It requires very careful balancing if that is even possible, I used a spare part to prop him up, or hte edge of my table or the wall

    yes I will show you in my video review. I think it is an arm. The guy i got it from thinks its the head, which at first I thought was possible due to the large head, but I am now thinking its the arm becuase I think I see a possible connection area and I dont see how it could fold in to be a good head or neck/upper torso

    Any chance we can get some size comparisons with other Movie-line toys?

    Also, if he's indeed 4 Voyagers, I can find it plausible that he's as tall as Fort Max.

    well, those three little claws at the shovel have a pin that allows movement. Maybe we can mod it like Movie Landmine and turn them to real little fingers.

    I hope that hands are somehow worked in there, it'll make this figure damn good.

    Some may say, "awesome Beast Machines Thrust homage!", I say "awesome Gizmo Duck homage!"

    Maybe the unicron.com stands for BM Thrust can keep this guy standing up.

    Can't wait for more Constructicon images.
