Action Master Devastator

This was the first toy version of Devastator I ever owned. I remember getting him as a child and not understanding why his limbs didn't match one another. At the time, I didn't realize just who this toy was representing. While it was definitely strange seeing this powerful combiner reduced to the size of a normal Decepticon, it was great to see Devastator again in the Generation One toy line before it ended. He was a popular character in the early seasons of the animated series. The toy does him slight justice in that he looks like he is formed from multiple components and strongly resembles his animated counterpart. The sad part is that he can't separate into the six Constructicons. His partner is a scorpion who transforms into his gun. Really cool figure for nostalgia's sake, but really strange to see the character reduced so much in size.
