Custom Transformers Devastator

Written by Ralph on 18th June, 2008

I try not to showcase too many custom figures, as I could post them all day long every day and never run out. Some however, just need to be shown off. One’s like this Custom Transformers Devastator.

Devastator is the combined form of the six Decipticon Constructicons. The team’s combined form of Devastator is brutality in its purest form—his sole purpose is to destroy anything and everything that gets in his way. It is ironic that the suitably intelligent Constructicons should sacrifice their thinking ability in their combined form, but simple-mindedness is a common limitation of the assorted other first-generation combining Transformers, because Devastator’s thoughts and actions are limited to what his six components can agree upon at any given time. Consequently, Devastator seems like a being of instinct, lashing out at everything around him before contemplating the consequences, but he is also slow and lumbering and very easy to trip up.

There are over 30 points of articulation on this Devastator custom. His head is on a ball joint, waist slightly rotates, shoulders move in and out, arms have 360 rotation front/back ways, elbows bend, forearms rotate in and out, all fingers (minus thumbs) have three points each, leg/hip moves outwards and back, knees bend, lower legs rotate outward/inwards, feet pivot on ankle (Mixmaster only.) The seller says the built this custom starting with six individual transformers, which were taken completely apart, had any factory paint removed, and then primed with plastic primer, which provides a very durable protective under paint. The yellowish-green is a result of five different shades. The silver metal robot parts on him were painted in six shades of silver, to give the ultimate metallic look.

He doesn’t come cheap however, it’s already up to $760.00 with four days to go.

Alternatively, you can just buy the original G1 Contructicons all mint on card. Won’t be much cheaper though, at $660.00 with three days to go.

That is an awsome Devastator but how did you make it. The bulldozer, steam shovel, and crane are Wedge, Grimlock, and Hightower from Robots In Disquise series.The dumptruck is Demolisher from Energon series. The tractor is Landmine from Cybertron series. And the cement truck was a tank called Barricade from Energon series as well. I didn’t think they could all combine.
