    I know Demolishor and Scavenger have similar alt modes, but do the two share a mold?

    Yes, that exactly my opinion also. Hasbro should have made all of the Constructicons voyager size instead of some voyager and some deluxe. Either way, these guys are pros at what they do and I know they will have no problems in evening out the size differences. Does anybody know Scrapper's size by the way. Voyager or Deluxe? What's also kinda sucks is that Hightower does not have a robot alt mode other than that scorpion looking thing that he transforms to. Oh well, can't have it all, right.

    What Hightower has no Robot mode? "WTF" Oh my gosh what in the world is Bay doing. Haven't we said time and time again it's not a Transformer unless its got both Robot and Alt mode. Im really getting sick of him producing our movie. Bad designs, Bad ideas may make a good movie but the just doesn't work in in the world of Transformers toys.

    May be some one here will figure out a way to give him a Robot mode of some kind. Does he at least have a Head to work with? Kinda of something like Demolisher/Scavenger, he doesn't really have a Robot mode either in my book.

    Oh! My bad. :lol  But no, if they were all voyagers then Scavenger would have to be a leader. Instead they should have gone with making the limbs deluxes, and then have Scavenger as a voyager and maybe Mixmaster as a scout or a small deluxe. That would work scale wise, it'd be easier to make him more stable and he'd be taller then a leader! I mean, the Energon combiners are already leader sized, and those limbs are scouts!

    Naturally an all voyager combiner would be preferable, but that might up too expensive for even the fans, and might be a bit too floppy. :lol 

    I don't know, Hightower could look cool. The legend figure suggests that he's basically a T-rex, with the head replaced by a rollcage that protects a normal robot head.

    I'm fine with Scavenger being a leader class figure, the bigger the better. I still think they should have been all Voyager scale. Also in terms of scale if you were to roll Bumblebee or any of the Human Alliance figures up beside the deluxe scale Constructicons. Wouldn't you want them to ba also Voyager scale. I am really probally going to buy only Voyager, Leader scale Bots. Along with the Human Alliance Bots, unless I see some really nice deluxe figures available.



    I really don't think they'd be to floppy, not with the way the Radicon's here on this board work. We all would find away to stop that, it's just not in our book as Radicon's. And as far as expense goes ya it be costy. But most of the Radicons on the board are Adults and would be able to aford them at 25 to 30 dollars figure.



    As long as Hightower has a head I can work with him.

    With all this talk of size I just want to say that he is WAY bigger then leader Megatron. I took a pic but I cut it out of the thread for time issues:p

    I want ask you this since you have Demolisher/Scavenger in hand. Also cause I haven't bought him yet. Have you tried to play around with his transformation more? I want to see if there's a way to get him to stand better than the ways i've seen so far. I'm kinda wondering if there's away to get him to stand on both of his treads.
    I'm not really crazy about him standing the one tread, or by being held up with whats supposed to be his Arms/shovels.

    I think someone definitly needs to make a combination kit for these guys, like a fan made kit, that holds them all together, and a head.

    Nice update! I'd suggest swivelling the top pieces on the arms though, so the cab is facing inward, like it does on the final design.

    I probably will but I will wait until I grab Mixmaster and get a clearer shot of the pic before I test that out
