I did it! Took me damn near 30 years but dammit I finally did it!
I got out my G1 original Constructicons and made DEVASTATOR!! Oooooo he is a beauty. There is a story behind this accomplishment that has plagued me for almost 30 years but after tonight... I can sleep with an accomplishment! Yo Bats. Thats awesome! I have the Classics Devastator. So whats the story behind this accomplishment? |

The year is 1985, maybe 86. I woke up Christmas morning and I had Omega Supreme... AND ALL 6 CONSTRUCTICONS under the tree and ready for action. So I dealt with Omega first. He was kinda easy except for his legs. But for some reason.. I could not get my 6 Constructicons to form Devastator no matter how hard I tried. Eventually in my years.. both faded from history.
Year is 2001. I buy some cheap ass KO Constructicons off the net for 14.00 and try to form them and well... that was a mistake. Cheap ass plastic shit. Never made Devastaor. Then a few years ago I come across some original G1 Constructicons yet again and I have them. I set them up in the Batcave but never tried to form Devastator due to the past. TONIGHT: Got a wild hair to go out there and form them up and ... HOT DAMN!!! I DID IT!!! Success at last!! Now if I can stumble onto some Aerialbots... those will be mine also! |

That is an awesome story BAts....
Devastator is no. 2 to after Starscream so I understand. I bought a reissue set of the G1 Constructions so I would be able to let my son play with it when he is ready. I was giddy to see that Kreos have a set to build the G1 Devastator, Superion, Bruticus and Predaking! Those will be mine very soon!

If I was growing a beard... I would look like one of the ZZ Top band members! LOL
Thanks. You really shouldn't have. Maybe one day you can win at Fantasy Football and I can send you some goodies. LOL So what are you doing today. |
