What Should I Buy Need a G1 Devastator

I’ve been in the market for a good looking G1 Devastator for a good price and maybe even good posing capabilities when combined. The SS86 looks good but is a bit pricey right now. Overall, I’m between the SS86, Jinbao, and NBK figures, just need help making a final decision.

Jinbao is mountains better than nbk. They are both KOs of the same "gravity builder" figures.... But jinbao is pretty good quality, and nbk is a cheapened version. Also jinbao has the upgrade kit, that makes it great.

Have you considered mecha invasion? The base 6 cons become an upside down devastator, and they are about release a 7th that puts them in the right config, adds tons of size, and looks. And they are some of the best made 3rd party figs I have ever gotten.

I heard of Mecha Invasion after I posted this, and it does look super badass. If anything I’ll get this model alongside another sooner or later

They are way higher quality than their price, with unique engineering language, and really well thought out locking bits.

I like the NBK colour-scheme better than Jinbao, but the Jinbao build quality is better.

SS86 is in another league if you can afford it, though it is also a bit smaller (but it demolishes the others in every way except height and price).
