Transformers Toys Studio Series 53 Voyager Class Revenge of The Fallen Movie Constructicon Mixmaster Action Figure - Ages 8 & Up, 6.5"

This is from what I can tell an official Transformer. I myself when buying stuff online am always skeptical, and when I saw this wasn't being sold by Amazon itself I was a little skeptical but I ordered it none the less. Everything other than the instructions makes me believe this is an official release, and if it is a KO then it's a very good one. Would recommend if you need a Mixmaster.

This is one of the only two Studio Series Constructicons that I have, but it's a great one! Mixmaster has a very unique design in the movie, and it's conveyed rather nicely here. His robot mode has great articulation, allowing for you to strike lots of good poses with him. His transformation into a cement mixer might seem complicated at first, but it's actually pretty easy once you get the hang of it. And his cement mixer mode looks quite nice, too. As for his "Devastator head" mode...well, I don't have enough SS Constructicons to form Devastator, so I can't comment on how well Mixmaster connects with his comrades. But on his own, as an action figure, he's definitely worth a purchase.

There’s nothing wrong with the Product itself, however there’s just a few things to mention.First was the fact that I was not made aware the this was part of a set. This Product is 1part of the Devastator Set, which isn’t bad but I’m not a Hardcore Transformer fan so I wouldn’t have known beforehand.Second is that the Instruction Manuel doesn’t do just justice for the Transformation Process. There are small holes and parts that are supposed to click into each other but the Manuel only makes a Click indicator and doesn’t show the exact points that are connecting. My suggestion is the watch a tutorial to make things easier.

The figure is everything you could want for a modern Mixmaster toy. Extremely detailed, it looks like it came right out of the screen. My personal one had some quality control issues on one of the shoulder joints not being properly set for robot mode, but it was easily fix with a little bit of force

I'm an adult collector so all views regarding this figure are through that lens.As someone, who's not a fan of the Michael Bay films or most of the robot designs used in them I have something of a soft spot for the monstrous take on Devastator featured in Revenge of the Fallen. I'm also a fan of constructicons and combiners in general, so when I heard that Hasbro was making a fully transforming version of ROTF Devastator as part of their Studio series I knew I had to get him. Thus far, the individual constructicons have been a mixed bag for me, with some that were well-made but with designs I'm not a fan of (Rampage, Hightower), some that had great designs, but a myriad of engineering issues that made them less than fun to fidget with (Long Haul) and some that I absolutely love (Scrapmetal -seriously, he's adorable) I'm happy to say that Mixmaster falls into the final category despite some flaws.The robot mode is about as accurate to the on-screen rendition of the character as you're likely going to get at this size and price-point. He's menacing and alien, with short legs and long arms that terminate in nasty-looking claws. Poseability is so-so with a decent center of gravity despite having the whole cab of the truck (and the combiner head) on his back. You can pull of some decent poses with a little effort.Transformation to vehicle mode is a bit of a chore. There are an obscene number of tabs and getting them lined up without untabbing something you just tabbed in is a frustrating. Fortunately this means that once you DO get everything tabbed into place, his vehicle mode is extremely secure with none of the issues staying together some of the other studio series figures (looking at you, Long Haul) have.The vehicle mode you end up with is nice-looking with good paint and is fairly accurite to the Mack Granite cement mixer used in the movie. I was initially displeased with the proportions of the mixer barrel to the rest of the truck, until I actually looked up images of the real thing and realized they're pretty much spot-on.Devastator's head is very cool. Menacing and monstrous, with a great amount of paint and sculpted detail. I don't have scavenger yet, so I can't comment on how he and mixmaster combine.Oveall a fun figure that looks great in both modes. Recommended for collectors and older kids.

Both modes are great with a good transformation. I wish Mixmaster included a weapon or his cannon mode. This figure is great for its price.

Exactly what I expected. Little expensive, however it's for my grandson.

As someone who originally did not like how the Bayverse Constructicons and by extension Devastator looked I am happy to say that the studio series constructicons are looking really good. I have 5 of the 8 so I am now just waiting on Scavenger and then Scrapper and Overload to be released and once that happens I will see if the wait was worth it.
