How the hell are the Autobots going to deal with him - are they going to get the humans to Nuke him?
...Hope so - that would be so cool... |
Nah. I'm sure that Herolad will simply slide dramatically underneath Devastator and shoot him where his armor plating is weakest. Because apparently underneath all that armor Transformers are made up of warm butter and cedar chips.

And that's fanart, though good enough to impress Bay that it could very well be in the sequel as one of the Constructicons.

SmokescreenGT:
Those are some kick ass alt modes! I can't wait to see what they look like combined into Devastator. He's gonna be freakin' Icespark:
Devastator will be huge, won't he!  I guess I won't mind the colors too much. Hasbro will probably repaint him into his G1 colors later on. That will just mean two huge Transformers for the shelf!  I just wish we had an estimate on the prices for each; it would make planning a budget easier!
I can't wait to see this on screen! G1Wheeljack:
Nice picks, can't wait to see robot modes/Devestator now.
sgrizzle:
I'm just waiting for the movie to be released, and devastator is nowhere to be seen because these "leaks" are all the fakes leaks Bay promised.
sannman:
wow. these are the biggest construction vehicles ever....... Go Bay!!

forgot the hd465
Brave Magnus:
Damn! G1 Cons with RID colors?. Could work.^^ If they are all green its good too but as long all those form Devastator I'm happy.

To create so much anticipation and excitement, only to put out lesser, that would jeopardize the film.
Motor_Master:
Just to give a sense of scale, here's the RK400 next to a CAT 797B dumptruck, (yes that's a staircase going up the front of the dumptruck grill), which I believe is the big brother to both of the dumptrucks listed.
Given the size of these things, the combined form is going to be fraking huge!
Their size is also why I don't think we've seen on set pics yet. Aside from the concrete truck and perhaps the dump trucks, most of these can't be easily relocated with some taking a long time to setup. With the crane and the mining excavator I can easily see them doing those in 100% CGI for both modes.
Janeails22x:
"...and he has also side stepped and MASSIVE backlash of fan anger if he had changed them."
....Ummmmmm....I believe he already started to get some of that with the news of Optimus Prime combining with Jetfire that came out not to long ago....
Grade-A-Prime:
Wow,
After all the news and mention on pod-casts and their posts, We see the alt modes! I was still under the impression that there was only 6, with 1 Dump Truck instead of 2. Having 7 seems like they're gonna use 3 to form the body, or have one change into a gun or something like the Seacons. Well, whatever the final formation is..3 things are for sure. He's gonna be Big, Bad, and Bought! (I hope that they stay close to the g1 name's though).
G.A.P.

There are plenty of giant robots and combiners in the transformers universe. Many of the pieces of equipment in that list are fairly uncommon and if Bay had hauled off with a Noah's Ark of construction vehicles I find it much more likely we would have a picture before we had the specific model#.
I just find it fishy that one drawing of a constructicon on a personal website that was dismissed by many is now suddenly real and part of devastator. I would more tend to believe that Bay decided to use the picture that was public to help further disinformation.
Easterling Capt:
I seriesly doubt each constructicon will be so big. I say they will probably be scaled down with camera tricks and digital magic. Those vechels are to big, they wouldent need to combine to crush the autobots they could almost do that individually if they are that big.
for those including myself who have seen these things irl know how freakign big they are it like a car x10.
I am waiting for official pics or a word from bay.
and i doubt they will be in that color aswell, they will probably get other paint in the movie made digitaly or something.
Magelite:
I'm more worried about how the frak these guys are going to combine. I certainly can't see Bay having them just float into position (and I would agree with him on that) and I can't see them doing acrobatics to get on top of each other.
sannman:
you never know man. these vehicles are huge but think bigger is better for bay!

It was initially fanart by John Nizzi, already a professional. Everyone knew that the day that design came out last year. (or early this year, can't remember) His Long Haul concept was posted on Bay's forum, and Bay personally posted saying 'cool, maybe TF3'.
However we know that John was later hired for TF2. It could very well be that Bay decided to put the Constructicons in, and accepting John's fanart turning it into the official design.

The robots rebuild and reattach themselves. Or he is on all fours first.
trebleshot:
My anticipation grows with every tidbit of news about Movie Devastator.
...two dump trucks, though? Well, at least they're going to be different styles, so that will hopefully translate into separate molds.

Hey, at least we now know what the hell Energon Steamhammer was supposed to be. | QFT! Wow... that thing is frickin' ENORMOUS. It looks like Scavenger got tired of getting no respect and started taking robot steroids!

Julliant:
I'm worried that all this stuff that's giving us excitement is gonna make the budget fly through the roof, and we'll have another popcorn flick where the robots only come in to shoot/die depending on which side they're on. Little character development, given only to Prime/Bumblebee/new guys.
PS for sgrizzle in case you missed it on the last page:

Grimlocka go-go:
My hope is that if this is true, and that these are the vehicles that will be used, that Devi will have real hands, and not claws/scoops/buckets for hands. I'd be really sad if they made this huge badass robot with lobster claws for hands.

I'm worried that we won't have much, if any, non-action robot mode talking scenes, such as Megatron w. Starscream in movie 1.
Yea the one that lasted less than a minute.
MetroBoy:
Sickness on a freaking stick!
EmptyArmor:
After seeing all the constructicons vehicles I'm more excited for this film more than ever, though people are right about not seeing ANY of these on set videos, though I have a theory that if the Fallen is as powerful as some say, he will arrive near the end and I can imagine only someone as big as Devestator being one of the few to go one on one against. I have the feeling this big guy's going to combine once and be owned by the fallen. And since he doesn't come out til the end of the movie, that's why we haven't seen any set pics, cause they're only needed for final days of filming. =(

Disinformation is one thing, but when news such as this gets so big it becomes more like a promise. I can't disagree with you that the movie could be successful even without Devastator, but still the risk isn't worth taking that's why I doubt this is disinformation.
And we don't see these guys on set because there's no way of moving and setting these vehicles up without taking up half the budget.

very intrigued by this news, devestator was one of my favorites
Bryan:
Dugg.
And cool, he's in the movie. You know what I like more? That I'm getting a freaking new combiner toy!
Spoiler:
Bozo the Devastator!
Lol, as long as he is freaking huge and ready to kick some ass. I am all for it!
Laser_Optimus:
Very nice. Very very very nice. Some of those vehicles are just monstrous.
Also, to all you 'we haven't seen any set pics yet!' guys, seriously... some of these vehicles are too darned big to be moved around without spending loads of time and money. That would not be very cost effective at all. Not to mention... I can't think of one city that would let either of those two larger than life construction vehicles (honestly, they're bigger than freakin' tanks! MUCH BIGGER!) drive down their city streets... and most of the shots we've actually seen aren't any locations outside of towns and cities.
Soundwave84:
So why seven? And what will there names be?
Emperor Zarak:
excellent, yesssss
webz:
combiner devastator: official spokesbot of the Rainbow Coalition. whats wrong with the same colors? I see same color construction equipment all the time.
Seriously, The 49ers all wear the same uniform, the Marines have the same uniform, that's part of being a TEAM.. The Constructicons are a team within the Decepticon faction, and should all be the same color. *sigh*
Sad... as of right now, the RAIDERS have a better score card than Michael Bay.... heh
