    Hmm, that is a good point. Now if only they could reissue more of the line. That be great.

    I guess I will place an order for this as I’m assuming we won’t have another Devastator for a few years.

    Haha nice, I used to have all 3 as well, downgraded to the CW and only because it was the one that I opened. Although now that I think about it, should have kept the UW but it's always harder to get rid of a used item vs new. Although if they ever did re release the UW I would most definitely pick it up again.

    Yeah I only opened the CW version. The other 2 are still sealed. I wasn't touching that chrome. lol

    I think they did not to long ago rerelease the UW one.

    I think it's because they have no plans to make new Constructicons anytime soon and they are trying to capture as many "complete the G1 cast" collectors as possible since some joined during Siege and Bumblebee.

    Are there any upgrade kits still available that have fully articulated hands? I don't really care about individual robot elbows or weapons, and I'm totally fine with Mixmaster, as well as all the other vehicle modes. I just want some good solid grabbers for posing.

    I can't believe it already sold out. I was planning on pre ordering today. These limited releases of figures are terrible

    As long as it’s a limited exclusive, why isn’t Hasbro releasing Takara’s retooling instead? They’re doing that with the Headmasters.

    I wish they would just do Combiner Wars over again, with new molds and better engineering.

    Yeah and redo the Predacons as combiner wars/deluxes too please. I hate that those two teams are so monstrously bigger than the other combiners, I mean it is fine if people like it but combiner wars sized options would be swell.

    Yeah I feel you about the size differences, although I would rather they do the other combiners like the Predacons style. The predacons to me feel very sturdy unlike the deluxe ones. Even with the PTOP ones they could have done it up the same size as the the Predacons, since they were the Beast ones.

    Hey,what about reissuing the Unite Warriors variant rather than this crap-figure, this is about as shilly as Buzzworthy Bumblebee.
