Titanic discussion of Titan Devastator has been devastating our boards as of late(in a good way!). Will an upcoming yet to be seen Prowl form an optional head? Is this just a repainted Revenge Of The Fallen Devastator with wrecking balls? A G1 reissue marked up like the recent Platinum Insecticons at Kmart?
No official word, yet, on what Titan Devastator will be but catz has come through with information! Not just for Titan Devastator but for more G1 Platinum reissues! Note: some of the sets listed were seen recently such as the Insecticons and Conehead Seeker trio. Here’s what catz’ supplier relayed:
“Just got great news(referring to Titan Devastator) from my supplier:
– All new mold
– Awesome
– Huge
– Box are metroplex sized
– Combination of voyagers and 1 leader (the number of bots inside the box are not confirmed yet – sorry for the mess)
– green
– sdcc will be yellow
Also
G1 box set:
– Blaster
– perceptor
– Insecticon
– Trypticon
– g1 cone head set”
Fans prepare your wallets for devastation!

love the fact that the US TRU system can see indiviual figures as their own sku… My friend up here who gave me the info on Devy said that there was a clash listing in their system for about $17.99 or so (no sku or price confirmation yet)he said it was either legion or legend (all the system showed for the word was "leg." go figure)

Hmm at what OP mentioned at 179.99 CAD might be cheaper to pick him up locally

I don't know if it's different for Canada but all signs from Hasbro at the NY Toy Fair showed that it wouldn't be exclusive to anywhere.
Slingshot
No, it's believed to be a shared exclusive.
monish
any word of TRU getting this?
Nevermore
Ah, it's from the original "Megatronus" listing:
http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/trans…megatronus-mystery-figure-9.html#post12084927
My guess is still "subline imprint".

I've not heard of this "clash of the TFs" either… Please point me to the news so I can review what I've missed.
With a figure called "Megatronus" its bound to be interesting
Afterburner
Clash of the TFs is not news if you have been paying attention.
Also, it would not be surprising at all to find Hasbro doesn't want to pay for the Lamborghini license considering they never would before either. Same might be true for Bumblebee. Nissan is a cheap license as it is not exotic and has a very close relationship with TakaraTomy.

I love that they seem to have got the name back for Slingshot.
General Tekno
Could be something as simple as the color. It's a VERY specific red that Lamborghini's specific about, and even the TakaraTomy version had paint issues.
Lazerwave
Maybe it's because they don't have Lamborghini's permission yet.

Most of these were reported before, but it's nice to have confirmation. Also, your listing does contain some additional details. "Clash of the Transformers" is new. TRU exclusive subline imprint, maybe?
Here are the links for the previous listings:
Slingshot and Wildrider
Masterpiece Bluestreak
Megatronus
Mercutio
Man, what is taking them so long with Sideswipe? You'd think a famous red sports car would be a no-brainer.
Lazerwave
I guess that means no Sideswipe this year.
HairyDawg
Any updated pricing info on Devastator or MP Bluestreak?

Usa gen devastator
Hey guys and gals. I hope this wasn't reported already, but after hours of digging through the TRU(USA) system I found Gen Devastator and some others. Here's the #s. I'm still looking for the Protectobots.
BTW: 1 item per SKU, multiple items per SKN and UPC. So ask buy SKU #

I would very much like that even if I hate Erector.
Shin Densetsu
Both. Catz even said his supplier wasn't sure but he didn't say for sure it was 4 voyagers and 1 leader. It could be 6, it could be 5, both sources saw it but at different times of production.
I hope we see this at Toy Fair but I don't want to get anyone's hopes up. If we don't, hopefully Hasbro at least lets out a press release which states what exactly we are getting.
BenjaminXavier
Yeah, at this point its not worth even really discussing till we see it in a matter of weeks.
