Transformers: Maketoys Giant Type-61 aka Devastator part III of III

This is it. The finale. Shot this a few weeks ago, but due to school I had difficulty finding the time to upload this. To brief this summarily, the figure comprises of 6 robot figures and they form the mighty-"not Devastator"- Giant. Because this is a third party figure, the Decepticon logos are non-existent plus the names of the characters are different. Behold! Devastator! Earlier on, I reviewed the figures on their robot modes and alt modes. I was amazed by how they have multitude of gimmicks in weapon set-ups. I had the most trouble transforming Scrapper, who goes by the name Wheel Loader in this one. I had one of his legs popped off and had trouble putting it back on. Once I got it back on, I vowed to never transform him again. When I finally got to Giant mode, it was downhill from there. Was a fairly easy set up and you could pull more gimmicks with his crane and guns to form one cool looking assault weapon. Not that I condone violence. Bec...

This is the end (2013) and the Christian perspective.

So I decided to finally watch This is the end which features Seth Rogan, James Franco, Jay Baruchel, Jonah Hill, Craig Robinson and Danny McBride etc... I understand this is an Hollywood film,  but I am merely writing this section just to hopefully reach out to people who want a sense on what is really in the scriptures as opposed to the movie. I'm still learning to walk with the Lord so I shall do my best in interpreting end time scriptures. First off, what drove me to write this was towards the end of the film, 3 of the main characters are raptured after the rapture occurred. The 3 get raptured because they did "good deeds." But to generalize it, they sacrificed themselves for one another. Don't get me wrong, it is a very noble concept, but I have to be blunt and say that good deeds do not get you into Heaven. The film already had us fooled when Jay loosely reads the bible (revelations) at one point saying that "good people were brought up into heaven....

Been really busy but will post a pic up for fun and hopefully I will get back on track on sharing some of these pics in not-Devastator form later on. Take care folks. Transformers are for fun. Please do not take these characters or toys seriously.

2 Corinthians 12:9-10

2 Corinthians 12:9-10 King James Version (KJV) 9  And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10  Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. I am strong through the Lord.

Jesus Christ the same past, present, and future

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever (Hebrews 13:8, KJV)

Vengeance is not mines

Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. (Romans 12:19, KJV) This is something I have to live with everyday. Yes, I had now ex-friends that hurt me by not forgiving me because of past conflicts especially one ex-friend that slandered me and my best friend for no apparent reason. He called forgiveness evil and called us satanists because, well, I dunno. That's how bizarre the situation has become. Most people told me to stop talking to "this man" because they feel he is insane. Had an old friend which is also a ex-friend of "this man" just told me to ignore him. All in all, "this man" has done nothing to rectify the situation. When "this man" is confronted he often tells people that he is just disagreeing with me, but then goes on with his angry rants behind each and everyone of our backs.  Do I forgive this man? Yes, indeed! God commanded u...

Finished the shoot for the robot modes of the "not" constructicons. Transform! The "not" constructicons in deluxe size robot mode. Their robot modes look definitely more detailed and refined to their alt modes. That's not saying much. To me Scrapper looks the oddest of the bunch. I didn't recall him having this large chest piece in the G1 series. It certainly doesn't help him here. Hook's head is green for unknown reasons. Long Haul is wide!!!! He is disproportionate in width in comparison to his buddies. He makes some very interesting poses though. In Robot mode, I felt they captured Mixmaster the best. No real opinion here, I just like the look of his grey hood though it was green in the G1 series, so maybe they got his colors mixed up with Hook's head. Scavenger seems to have more of a mouth rather than mouth plate. The bots can utilize and mix and match a variety of weapons. So that is a plus +1 in my book. Next up, the gestalt Giant! Cli...
