Description: Hello. Up for sale here is a Takara Tomy Encore #20 Devastator with a mixture of Crazy Devy Upgrades, XP-01 Upgrade kit by X2 Toys, and some of my own custom work. The figure and upgrade parts are all opened and have been transformed and assembled, but only for the purposes of display. Therefore, all pieces are in excellent condition, noting the custom work described below. I was going for excellent stability in order to maximize pose-ability and pure awesomeness, while trying to minimize unintentional disconnection. I used the combination of Crazy Devy and X2 Toys upgrade parts that I felt gave the best look, and added the following custom upgrades: - A custom rotating waist piece. - Magnets on both left and right arm attachments to prevent the arms from falling off during posing. The left arm contains two magnets, one in Bonecrusher and one in Hook, and they simply connect. The right arm has the Crazy Devy extended shoulder piece and works a little differently. I installed a tiny metal plate in the extension piece to which a magnet is attached. The magnet acts like a locking pin. Simply pull the magnet out (maybe with tweezers), slide the piece in or out of the shoulder depending on if you are attaching or removing the arm, and then replace the magnet to lock it. The magnets are rare powerful earth magnets and quite strong. - I have tightened several joints and attaching locations with a type of hardening material, similar to a clear plastic. This has made for tight joints and connections. However, some stickers have been affected by sliding in and out of the tight connections. Though, it is fairly minor. - I drilled some holes in the original hip connecting piece (which is not used in the upgraded Devastator) to hold extra weapons when it is attached to Long Haul while he is in vehicle mode. The holes would not affect anything should you wish to make the original Devastator. - Extra weapons, as well as his two big guns in Devastator mode, are held in place by tiny elastic black hairbands, which are barely visible, but quite effective. - I made two custom clear plastic bases, one for each foot. The feet simply slide into these and they add quite a lot of stability to Devastator. I made these from plastic pieces I happened to have left over from another project. Although they are very effective, I did not really give them finishing touches and so they have some rough edges. The result of these changes are a very pose-able figure with little fear of the appendages falling off accidentally. I will be placing insurance on this piece. Just to note; the Crazy Devy pieces are the waist / hips, the forearms and hands, the right shoulder extension, the chest piece, and one of the big guns.
