    If Hasbro's sticking to the "to scale" (as much as possible to Hasbro's advantage anyway) philosophy of SS, this new toy will probably be bigger.

    According to this scale: https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/attachments/rotf-scale-decepticons-original-1-jpg.28660431/ found in this thread AOE Scale Chart Thread, The Fallens tower over every other bots outside of the Constructicons, even Blackout that's in the same Leader class.

    I'll probably not get it unless on clearance price though, my repainted Voyager Fallen is good & scale well enough.

    I think it not being a Titan Class thing and a individual bots release (which budget wise helped the robot modes/individuals) didn’t help that.

    Also it’s probably they follow the scale to the point until the characters are to big to do in actual scale I mean look at Grimlock.

    So If I where to guess The Fallen will be bigger than others and Megatron and will be close to that size in the chart but not all the way.

    and fallen looks too big in that scale chart to be "just" leader class, so i doubt it

    Because to create a proper SS-sized devastator you would need MPM sized robots.

    To be scale accurate he needs to be about SS Grimlock size. so no reason he can't be a leader and in scale.

    Agreed and I think we should hopefully be close to that size. I don’t expect anything bigger.

    We all know that, that's why I added the "as much as possible" clause. But realistically, Hasbro just doesn't have a price point that can do Devastator justice in terms of scale and be commercially viable. And even if Hasbro want to throw money away and gives us that, I know I don't want to pay for 7~8 Commanders/Titans for a movie Devastator taking up space the size of my stove.

    Indeed, since he his alt mode isn't really anything and he is a smaller parts count the budget should be used for the robot mode and his size.
    Yeah and also even if it was a Titan box set the individual Constructicons wouldn't be to scale still and also would pay the price like CW Devastator for the Combined mode.

    I don't mean a box set of Devastator at a Titan price though. To be more or less in scale with the other SS bots, EACH Constructicon members are likely in the Titans/Commanders class. We're talking about well over $1000 when said & done. It's not going to happen.

    Aw yeeee. SS The Fallen's alt-mode is clearly a human-scale Matrix of Leadership.

    Close to it yeah. If you honestly want in scale Constructions the oversized SS ko's are to scale (for example Long Haul) from Hasbro I don't seem them doing that at all.

    If this is indeed a legitimate figure, then it means we'll probably see the Fallen release towards the end of the year/early 2023 at the latest

    With the Fallen, the important thing is that he should at least be in scale with Megatron and Optimus, who are already in scale with each other.

    Red Goblin's chart has Megatron and the Fallen at 35ft and 40ft respectively. With SS Megatron at almost 20cm tall,
    the Fallen should be close to 23cm tall.
    X/20cm=40ft/35ft
    X = 40/35*20
    X = 22.857 cm

    As it turns out, Jetpower Optimus is also almost 23cm tall at the very tip, so it seems the old voyager (HFTD version at least) is pretty close to being in scale from the photos I've seen (photo from @Lockon Prime)
    I wouldn't mind him being taller though :p
