    Would have been kinda nice if they had done a little bit more with the crane bit, sort of like the Legends one:

    Yes. I can just imagine a bunch of Hightowers stomping around and wrecking the city with their giant feet. It makes my inner child happy.

    Looks decent but probably the one I'm least excited for from the set.

    I think it's charmingly goofy, though I was hoping with these in hand images we would see the first bit of combination

    Really eager to get this loveable weirdo.

    I really want to see some more detail on how he and Scrapmetal combine, and if Scrapmetal's infameous "panel" can be used in there somewhere.

    Also, some of the mid-transformation pictures puzzle me a bit. I don't know why the crane's claw is attached to the back of the head for a few steps there.

    That's the combiner mode, where he merges with Scrapmetal to make a hand.

    He’s endearingly awkward.

    I think he's kinda cute. I imagine he would be the pet of the contsructicons.

    *sigh*

    Just remind yourself it will all be worth it once you have Devastator put together.
