If you have feelings you not hate me.

• Devastator "Origin Color" Set (EZ Collection, 2010)

Decepticon Hook is a Generation 1 Constructicon-themed redeco of Revenge of the Fallen Legends Class Hightower, transforming into a truss crane and the left arm of Devastator. He was only available in a Japanese-exclusive giftset with the other green Constructicons.

Notes

• The first, movie-colored EZ Devastator shares all names with the Hasbro version. For this Generation 1-inspired redeco, TakaraTomy decided to rename two of the Constructicons who sported different names than their G1 counterparts, thus creating two new Constructicons: The name "Bonecrusher" had already been used by an on-screen character from the 2007 movie and his toys, thus prompting Hasbro and Paramount to avoid reusing the name and call the Revenge of the Fallen Constructicon Rampage instead; TakaraTomy then renamed the Generation 1-inspired redeco of EZ Collection Rampage into Bonecrusher. Meanwhile, the name "Hook" had simply been unavailable to Hasbro for trademark reasons, hence the Revenge of the Fallen Constructicon was named Hightower. Again, TakaraTomy decided to use his Generation 1 counterpart's name for the redeco; but instead of using his Japanese Generation 1 name, "Gren", TakaraTomy decided to maintain the general trend of their live-action movie-affiliated toy lines, which have all toys sport their Hasbro or Hasbro-derived names, thus naming him "Hook"; or, more precisely, "Decepticon Hook" for trademark reasons.
