During SDCC 2015, there were exclusive Transformers: Devastation posters being handed out – and now we have a good look at it, courtesy of TFW2005 boards member luks0r! Most notably, this poster features Menasor and the Insecticons – the latter of which we’ve gotten brief glimpses of in the gameplay clips that have been released, but the former is completely new to us. He appears to be taking a bit of inspiration from his Combiner Wars body as well. Could this be confirmation that Menasor will be appearing in the game alongside his fellow Decepticon combiner Devastator?
Let us know your thoughts after the break!

I need this.
I need this very much.

I can see where the "It's a Generations game" comes from.
Megatron turns into a tank, with similar forearms and tread placement to his Generations figure. Not to mention Menasor having Offroad and presumably Blackjack (his character model is technically in the game as one of the generics).

Now I'm also using this as my Facebook cover photo.

Update: spoke to the Producer of the game and asked him, he coyly smiled and said that the poster is not an OFFICIAL confirmation of Menasor.
Also, he said that technically this isn't a G1 game, it's a "Generations" game, which should clear up some of the "Which versions of the characters are they" discussion

Nice poster! I kinda want it framed and hanging in my man cave.
I think the Insecticons are confirmed since we saw some play footage of Kickback getting wailed on while he's in bug/grasshopper mode. Menasor and Soundwave (and his cassette minions) would be awesome.
Wonder if Skywarp will show up, and if each named character will be sporting abilities that they displayed in the show/comics (like Skywarp's teleportation and Thundercracker's sonic booms).

that menasor looks very CW
emoo
Sideswipe is based on his generations counterpart. Megatron is based off the cw leader toy as they confirmed he was a tank, the tops of his shoulder match the toy and he has treads on his legs. It seems Menasor is also based on his cw counterpart. They said the story takes place before the 86 movie so its in the g1 continuity, but it seems like generations in a few cases designs were updated which is fine by me.

Yep he was a confirmed tank. Looking at the tops of the shoulder it is indeed based on the cw toy as the shape is identicle

Wheeljack, sideswipe, bumblebee, optimus and grimlock are the 5 playable characters.

I don't have much doubt this is how Menasor looks in the game. You can see in the trailer that Megatron has his CW body and Blitzwing his Generations. I imagine the game will use modern toys in Sunbow cartoon aesthetics.
GAUGE
They should have just called the game Transformers 1986 and crammed the entire cast from Transformers the movie into it.
Now THAT would have been one hell of a ride. especially done up in this style.
