    Sweet.

    Are they planning on doing all of the G1 Dinobots? (Grimlock, Swoop, and Slug out now.)

    I have a feeling they would all look very awesome together. (Even if they were hero mashers)

    Man, I want that Slug for my daughter. I got her the Grimlock one and she has a lot of fun with it.

    Not as far as we know. We have no idea if the line will even continue into 2015.

    I don't think we'll get Snarl at least. If you look at slug's package he comes with "Snarl Tail". I think when they come with a part of another character we won't get that character as it's own Hero Masher.

    I was only planning on Heateave because of his pure randomness, but I think I'll be getting Soundwave too.

    The Soundwave looks surprisingly good. The Slug... eh. Maybe when they invariably wind up on clearance I'll pick them up. It would be neat to have all the Dinobots.

    Yeah these are nice, definitely think all of those G1ish Dinobots would look great together nice and big too.

    The only bad thing I can say about the Soundwave release is Hasbro missed a chance by not dusting off the Robot Hero minions to go with him. But since I already have those figures I'm looking forward to picking up the Soundwave figure.

    I hope these get repainted. Soundwave could be repainted as Soundblaster black, Shattered Glass white and Marvel purple.

    While Slug can be repainted as G2 red, G2 green and AoE purple.

    I want that Ultra Magnus but don't want to buy all the figures to make him though.

    Sadly this is the closest thing we're getting to an official FOC Slug

    They're not making an Ultra Magnus. They're only releasing his arm as an extra.

    I hope they do Scrounge's arm at some point.

    I'm debating getting the Dinobots from these sets. Are there any good threads for mashups to see if the various parts have enough swap-options?
