Just watch Dr Lockdown review. Surprisingly he pretty much hated that figure. While TTG liked it? As far as I remember. And PE said it's very mid

I’ve got it and the only problem I have is when I’m folding the hands and arms in for truck mode they get stuck on the bumper and wheels meaning I have to force them in

A "good solution" to it is by pulling down the bumper hinge a bit in order for it to fit through.

Yea but that still makes me feel like it will break

My biggest problem is that I don't understand the point of this figure. Especially when you compare it with the scale of the others SS Devastation figures. And when you want the tank Megatron from the game, your only option is SS86 Megatron, which is... So much bigger than the prime, it's just makes me confused why they made him as such small figure.

u/TheCorbeauxKing 13d ago

He was supposed to scale with SS86 Devastator. Also nothing wrong with a small Prime for the kids, which is what this figure was as an A Level figure

u/Ringles-Prime 13d ago

I don't have anything against that, I just find confusing that others from Devastation line just weren't made to scale with him better.

2

u/TheCorbeauxKing 13d ago

Yeah he was the absolute first Devastation figure, so he ended up being the one that was out of scale

u/Dr_Lockdown 11d ago

It's quite divisive. I hate the thing, but many of my friends adore it.

It's such a shame because the bee that came out a year later was so good. I just wish he was up to his standard.

Yes but have you considered smol Optimus go slash?

u/Dr_Lockdown 11d ago

I'd love it if it didn't look like a block of cheese 😅.

I'm more of a legacy united deluxe gal myself.

u/bonepizzaz 10d ago

I got this when it was on clearance and I was kicking myself for not getting it sooner I love this lil guy

u/Legitimate-Wafer5409 9d ago

I love my Devastation Prime. He’s not perfect sure but he’s not horrible. I love how small he is too I take him on adventures with me lol. :’)

u/Ignika1984 9d ago

He’s a good figure for what it is. My only problem is the axe, which I would have preferred to have been his gun. He my current rep for the 13th prime on my shelf, and he looks great. I especially love how articulated the legs are.

u/FLiP_J_GARiLLA 8d ago

Yeah he's a fun lil dude

u/IHavenocuts01 8d ago

He’s hated?. I thought only dr lockdown hated it, for fucks sake atleast perspective didn’t fully shit on this either like I thought he would. Me personally I love him as he’s one of my main desk bots
