Giant Bumblebee in Bondi today - Page 2 - Ozformers Transformers Collectors Australia
Also on display is some Character Concept artwork, including the first I have seen of Ransack and Hightower as proposed inclusions (like Arcee and Wreckage in TF1).
It also lists Hightower as 'Constructicon 10', suggesting more than the 7 vehicle/robot forms that we have toys for.
And amusingly, the early name for Alice was 'Pretender - Hot Chick'.
One of the few times I wished I lived in Sydney...

Maybe the initial idea for the character was that he'd be able to swap vehicles as limbs? |

EDIT: And wow, that Devastator looks great, though I like the later head more. Awesome idea to use Long Haul as the head too, and very fitting. Makes me wonder what he would have looked like if they had stuck with the big dumptruck for Long Haul and let him form most of the torso too instead of Scavenger; green and yellow could have looked good together, though I like the red and yellow here as well. Love Scrapper as the leg too, he looks the same as Rampage, yet different enough to still be set apart. |
