Devastator Custom Transformers Generation 1 Combiner Figure by frenzy.rumble Part 1

Devastator2-704788 generation-1-transformersWhen frenzy.rumble tackles a Transformers project, he goes BIG! Take a look at his latest creation, a 16″ Custom Transformers Devastator Combiner figure. I really like frenzy.rumble’s artistic liberties he has taken with this behemoth as I think it is a vast improvement to the original Devastator while still retaining the classic Generation 1 styling we all know and love. First off, you may notice the absence of a pretty dominant color purple that was the focal point of the 1980’s classic. He has gone with a metallic look where there used to be purple and I think that adds very much to the look and feel of the figure. You can tell that this combiner has been painstakingly painted (as you can read below) as frenzy.rumble has achieved a nice Constructicon hue. frenzy.rumble goes into a bit more detail on how he created his masterpiece:

“Devastator is a combiner! This means he is 6 individual Constructicons that transform into construction vehicles, which combine into 1 gigantic Decepticon. In the slideshow below, you can scroll through the various pictures of each of these Constructicons, please note; there are 3 pages of slides. But if these aren’t enough, to see many more pictures (including how this masterpiece was created) search “frenzyrumble” on Google. (It should be the 1st result returned)There are over 30 points of articulation on Devastator…. his head is on a ball joint, waist slightly rotates, shoulders move in and out, arms have 360 rotation front/back ways, elbows bend, forearms rotate in and out, all fingers (minus thumbs) have 3 points each, leg/hip moves outwards and back, knees bend, lower legs rotate outward/inwards, feet pivot on ankle (Mixmaster only.) I built this custom starting with 6 individual transformers, which I completely took apart, removed any factory paint, and primed with plastic primer, which provides a very durable protective under paint. All paint you see is 100% enamel. It’s harder, and more durable than the customs you’ll see painted in acrylic. Also, enamel paints are ‘color-fast’; meaning they will retain their original color for 10+ years, whereas acrylics typically fade after 2-3 years. The yellowish-green is a result of 5 different shades. The silver metal robot parts on him were painted in 6 shades of silver, to give the ultimate metallic look.”

    Wow, this looks amazing. If only they made the characters in the movie using this style.

    Came here after some googling, looking for something completely different, but I really enjoyed your posts. I’m a big TF fan aswell, especially G1.

    Keep up the good work! :)

    This Devastator is amazing! The customizer who made this, frenzy.rumble, is one of the most talented customizers out there! I totally agree with you on the point you are making about the characters in the movie. One of the reasons I made this website was to showcase all of the talent out there and the people who were making true Movie style figures.
