Amazon.com Review:
One of the biggest Transformers toys ever made, the Constructicon Devastator brings the power of the Decepticons to your home. Having appeared in the summer blockbuster Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Devastator can disassemble into six, smaller, fully functional Transformer vehicles. With its motion-activated sounds and movie-accurate detail, this toy is a must-have for any Transformers collector, ages five years and older.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Devastator
    Ages: 5+

    Requires:
  • 2 "AA" batteries (included)
  • Phillips screwdriver
  • Adult unpacking/assembly
What We Think

Fun factor:
Durability:
Ease of assembly:
Educational factor:

The Good: A large, detailed Transformer toy that's six toys in one.

The Challenging: Tough vehicle-to-robot conversion may be too much of a challenge for younger children.

In a Nutshell: A massive Transformers toy that does justice to its movie inspiration; great for young fans and older collectors alike.

Your Own Transformers Experience
Staying true to the movie, Devastator is massive, standing well over a foot in height and dwarfing most other Transformers toys. He is a solid, heavy, and well-built toy. Pulling a lever on his chest causes his mouth (called the Vortex Grinder) to light up with bright, neon-green LED lights. The lever also triggers battle sounds and quotes taken straight from the movie.

Devastator isn't the most flexible toy around. Because of his size, he can be a bit cumbersome to play with. However, his elbows and knees are articulated, which makes him easier to position and balance. He also has realistic details, which gives him value as a collector's replica.

Devastator consists of six smaller construction vehicles: the Constructicons. These detailed vehicles are painted in earthy colors suited for their rough construction jobs. Together, the Constructicons form a complete construction team. There is a bulldozer, a dump truck, an excavator, a scoop loader, a mixer and a crawler crane. They prove to be very maneuverable on a hard surface, able to make hairpin turns easily. However, it should be noted that, unlike their film counterparts, these vehicles do not transform into robots individually.

An Enjoyable, Challenging Assembly
Devastator might be one of the biggest transformers around, but it's also one of the most difficult to put together. Parents should be aware that the Devastator requires some degree of finesse to assemble -- and in some cases, strength. Some of the snapping parts are especially tricky to connect together, and prove difficult to pry apart. The toy is labeled as a Level 4 conversion, so younger children will have difficulty converting the toy by themselves. It took our tester (an experienced Transformer player) nearly 15 minutes to figure everything out. Still, putting the toy together should provide a constructive challenge for older kids.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Overpriced
This transformer is way overpriced for what it is. I like it but it has been a little bit of a disapointment. I spent the 105.00 on it when it came out only to see the price drop like flies as people really got a good look at the toy and the reviews. Now you can buy it at Wal Mart for 85.00 online. Man did I get screwed.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not anatomically correct
Movie was a huge disappointment...as are apparently the toys. Where's the swinging nut sack that played such a crucial role in the movie? And I'm sure Optimus Prime's talking figure uses as many profanities as he did in the movie. Why does Hollywood have to ruin every good childhood memory I have and create bad ones for our children!?...(grumble grumble, stupid Michaely Bay)



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Get yourself a used G1 Devastator on Ebay instead.
Wow. those are some cool construction vehicles. But wait, the vehicles don't transform individually? and that big ugly thing is Devastator? Are you for real, Michael Bay? If Michael Bay hates the original story and characters so much, maybe he should just walk away and let someone else do it.

Please do yourself a favor. Buy Transformers:The Movie from 1985. watch it. then go on ebay and pick up the real Devastator. The Transformers - The Movie (20th Anniversary Special Edition)



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Devastator is expensive, no doubt, but you get what you pay for.
I bought this as a birthday present for my nephew (10 years old), and he absolutely loves Devastator. I can't blame him, either. Everything about Devastor is solid: Construction of the toys, the sound samples (in robot mode), the posibility and playablity of each vehicle, both on their own and when combined together. There's enough room in the mouth (which will open wide when pushing/holding down a button) to stuff smaller autobots in there to meet their maker.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The best present for a grown kid!
I bought this for my husband for Christmas, but couldn't wait to give it to him... He has it up on a shelf in his "man room" and it looks awesome! You can press a button on the toys' chest and it talks, but the one I bought has a tendency to talk when ever it feels like it! (which is hilarious!!!) The price was average but I'd pay it again!
THANKS!
