Predaking. Devastator was big and strong, but slow, lumbering and dumb. Predaking was a badass. The big question is: Omega Supreme vs. Predaking.

Your predecessor's fusion cannon took out Predaking in one shot. I'd say Omega wins that one.

Yep. Predaking fights Megatron and after Pedaking whups him around for awhile, Megs blasts him in the chest and disables him. Omega Supreme took on all the first season Decepticons and only Megatron and Laserbeak survive.

Bruticus was my favorite combi-bot. I think he could take Predaking.

I always thought that the DinoBot should of been able to combine. They had an episode once where Hound made an illusion of them doing that but that was a far as that went

I'd bet that if they had been released a year later (1986 instead of 85) they would have. That was the year of the combiner groups (five groups total). Using rubberbands I created a Dinobot combiner. Another fan has one thats a bit sturdier.

I don't remember Hound ever making a dino combiner hologram. In the ep where we first see the Constructicons Hound makes a generic giant Autobot but it wasn't the Dinobots. Which ep are you thinking of?

Naw, Hasbro wasn't ready to do any radical changes to the exisitng Diaclone Dino robot toys when they liscensed them from Takara. www.diaclone.net has pictures of all the toys which became some of the first Transformers.

Devistator doesn't fare well against other gisnt robots. Bruticus handed his ass to him and it was Menasaur that eventually took Bruticus out. I'd pit Menasaur against Predaking...

Superion

The ep was 'Aerial Assault'. The Decepticons were stealing jets to inflate their airforce and take over the Middle East's oil fields. And you shouldn't judge who kicks who's ass just by one fight. Superion lost to Menasaur in 'Key to Vector Sigma pt 2' and needed Omega Supreme to bail him out. But Superion turned around and beat Menasaur in the rematch in 'Cosmic Rust'.

And if you REALLY want to know about ass kicking, DEFENSOR beat Bruticus so badly in 'B.O.T.' that Swindle ends up selling his fellow combaticons as spare parts LITERALLY.

And Defensor is the biggest puss of all the combiners. His few redeming qualities were his defense shield and the fact that his toy version actually had Defensor's head built in as opposed to being a separate part like every other combiner group. Thats a nice feature we wouldn't see again until the two Beast Wars combiners: Magnaboss and Tripredacus.

When Bruticus looked unstoppable, Megatron called upon the stunticons to form Menasaur. It was Menasaur that put an end to Bruticus's brutality.

Don't you ever wish that the Dinobots or Insecticons were made into combiners as well?

Do you want the Takara branch of the toys as well? How about Beast Wars and beyond? Do we count Reflector as a combiner?
