    I realized awhile ago that this kinda looks like a misformed Bob the Builder combiner...

    Then I realized MAD already did that.

    The resemblance is uncanny, isn't it? :D  They both even have a random tool for a right hand!

    Way I figure it, it's like all the past Kre-O, this is just MOVIE Devastator, a mass of clutster WHOA, while that little Kreon on the bottom right is G1 Devastator. Business as usual.

    That's not his head... That's his claw. His head is beneath that. Like Ravenxl7 said, his head is blacked out.

    The same picture everybody else is. As you can see in foratastyplot's post (quoted below), Devastator has no visible mouth, cause his head has been blacked out, or is just entirely black on this prototype. I'm not saying there isn't a Kreon figure dangling amongst Devastator's parts, as there clearly is one there, but that is most definitely NOT his mouth.

    I was stoked when I heard they were doing Devastator because previously Hasbro stated they were doing G1 stuff. But this! Seriously! Did they not notice the lack of sales on the toy itself. Man they need a new Manager that know's whats up.

    Wow...just...how...sigh.
    I don't like it. I was hoping it be more G1-y, or at least colored like G1 so you could make either ROTF or G1 out of it.

    Well, more money for the FoC Bruticus to get my gestalt fix!

    Kind of insulting to the ones wanting g-1 when one of the kre-on constructicons with it has g-1 colours. It looks okay but also unifinished

    I don't see how it's insulting to them. If anything, anybody expecting G1 colors from this set were delusional. It was right in the first description of him that the colors would be movie-based.

    The set appears to be a prototype. The Kreons are still missing their face and torso printings, and Devs himself could be missing any stickers or printing he might have for the production toy. His head is certainly missing any kind of detail to it.

    His head is obviously a cockpit for the little Constructicon (Scrapper maybe?) to sit inside. That is a clever idea.

    But I generally dislike Kre-O, because heck, I could make better transformable Lego TFs (yes, without having to disassemble them) when I was a kid...


    The Kreons on the other hand, are pure love. Especially since they are compatible with Lego. I am eagerly awaiting news of the Kreon packs.

    That's not his head, and is NOT blacked out - if you look closer, that's his left upper arm/shoulder. The head is the grey part with the translucent windows, I bet a Kreon can sit in there.

    To me, it looks like he is composed of five vehicles:

    - Large red treaded excavator with claw-arm and wrecking ball (forms body and left arm)
    - Orange dumptruck (forms right leg)
    - Yellow front loader (forms left leg)
    - Green drill (forms right arm)
    - Yellow excavator (forms the 'tail').

    Also, anyone noticed the translucent purple energon cube Kreo-blocks? :D

    Where are you seeing Sunstorm? I honestly don't see anything that resembles him...

    Ummm...yes it is his head.

    There is no way that is his shoulder.

    That's his chest. It does look like it can hold a kreon, but that is most definitely NOT his head.

    It feels wrong to come here and poke a stick at a dead horse, but that is after all 90% of what we do here on a daily basis, so why not!

    This 'thing' (and I use that term losely) is fugly. Not much of a Kre-o guy to being with, which probably explains why I'm not turned on by Devi here, but I have to say this a shameful interpretation into a Lego-like character.
