Devastator (Michael Bay pentalogy)

Devastator is a giant decepticon who is made up of seven, eight, or sometimes nine Constructicons (Eight are named; Scavenger (Torso), Overload (Pelvis), Mixmaster (Head), Rampage (Left leg), Long Haul (Right leg), Hightower (Left arm), Scrapmetal (Left hand), and Scrapper (Right arm)).

Devastator is named after Cybertron's unwithstandable and terrifyingly destructive Devastator Winds, due to his intimidating strength. Devastator can also create powerful gravity wells by generating an artificial black hole with his Vortex Grinder, located in his mouth. Nearby objects are drawn into his gaping mouth to be crushed.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) First off, why does he have larger arms than legs? It makes no sense; especially for a Transformer unless if it's a gorilla-themed one.
 * 2) This version of Devastator doesn't stay faithful to the original green giant that a lot of people loved back in Generation 1.
 * 3) Like many of the Decepticons in the Michael Bay Pentalogy, he dosen't have any personality.
 * 4) This version of Devastator also can be best described as a "vacuum cleaner on steroids" due to generating (ridiculous) artificial black holes with his Vortex Grinder as opposed to being simply a giant robot combined from other robots.
 * 5) Devastator also has wrecking balls on his crotch, resembling a scrotum.
 * 6) * It would be a little better if the wrecking balls were placed on his hips or heck, his ankle, as a weapon or the designers could've left them off.
 * 7) His design is objectively ugly.
 * 8) He only gets a few minutes of screen time, before he gets taken out by a rail gun.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) His transformation scene is one of the best transformation scenes in the Michael Bay Pentalogy. It even wowed producer Steven Spielberg.
 * 2) Some of his earlier concept artworks showed him standing upright similar to his original incarnation. This is still present in most of his toys.
 * 3) An original draft from Revenge of the Fallen were he is supposed to be the climatic antagonist after Jetwing Optimus Prime defeats The Fallen & Megatron would have featured making him spiritually faithful to the Generation 1 version but due to many storylines being cut & focusing of the humans & the twins, this completely ruined him.
 * 4) He is a much more threatening boss character in the video game adaptations, which is heavily based on R.Q. No. 3 above.
 * 5) As Mentioned in WHS#6 his visual design isn't supposed to be appealing, as he is an evil Decepticon, after all.

Trivia

 * The extra two constructicons that made him up on certain occasions were a yellow dump truck (left leg) and a secondary bulldozer that made up (left hand).
