Apparently, the G2 orange Devastator Kreon is available as a single-pack give away at Toys "R" Us.
He was previously packed in the TRU Exclusive Autobot Assault Devastator set.

Awesome! I was disappointed that the one in the set (the other G2 one) didn't have the dark enegon Megatron gun...I'll have to pick up this one as well! I wonder what the availability will be and what constitutes "give-away".

Yeah, I'll probably need help getting one. Any kind soul out there looking for some good toy karma? If it's a "free with purchase" thing I'll help you out with the purchase bit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-fire.gif)

Also, this one seems to be more orange, like the initial photo showed, and unlike the unambiguous yellow of the box set release. Which would be fine, seeing as how G2 Devastator was released in both yellow and orange...

Also, lastmaximal, I also was thinking that it'd be a "free with purchase" thing.

That does sound most sensible. Offer does still stand, as I don't know how likely it is for this to pop up so easily otherwise. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-hotrod.gif)

Remember when they found this on a website with an MSRP of $4.99 or something like that? It's probably for sale. Why would there be a price listed for a giveaway?

That website was Hasbro Toy Shop, IIRC. It's possible TRU is giving it away while HTS sells it.

As Walky mentioned, it could just be TRU having it as a giveaway. Heck, TRU does that all the time with LEGO polybags.

Yeah, this is completely not the TRU-exclusive set Devastator.

TRU SET = Yellow, clear-plastic hands, opaque black "Megatron" gun
THIS GUY = Orange, opaque hands, clear-purple "Megatron" gun

That would have been fine a few weeks ago when I picked up Kreostator, but now...I mean, maybe as part of Christmas shopping next month, but even then...

Really? Because "over on TFW", to me, immediately points towards the opposite direction of "correct".

Hmm. I wonder if they'd take back my opened, stickers-applied, and constructed Devastator/Ironhide set just to let me buy it back from them a long with (as you say) one other thing to get this other Devastator Kreon. Seems like a lot of trouble, and I doubt the store would go for it. Then again, as Walky noted, it might be that HTS actually does list this. That'd be easier.

In case anyone was still wondering, the proper information for this deal (in Canada) is that you have to buy $20 worth of Kre-O at TRU and then the Devastator Kreon is free.

... Or ask about it, spend 10 minutes running around the store as Customer Service keeps giving you possible places where the Kreon might be on shelves, then spend another 10 as other employees search the store until they find the Kreon in the Manager's Office, in a box under his desk. Get that to happen and the employees will be so sick of you and the Kreon that they'll just give it to you. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-fire.gif)
