- Constructicon Devastator (Multi-pack, 2007)
- Accessories: Energon claw, Decepticon-style energon chip
- Classics Hightower is a black and purple redeco of Energon Duststorm and Wideload only available as part of the Classics Constructicon Devastator giftset. His teammate Classics Long Haul also uses the same mold. Hightower's crane arm extends out and can be fitted with a purple claw accessory. In robot mode the crane forms his left arm, and thus his otherwise-normal robot mode is rather awkward.
