    Looks like there's a definite possibility of an unofficial reissue of this figure in the near future.

    Maybe it's a JustIToys two-up prototype for WST swoop.

    its not a bad choice for a dinobot actually considering amongst the dinos, swoop is the hardest to procure, especially loose in good condition.

    Yes it would. Very good. I have the black Prime, you can't even tell it's a bootleg.

    Honestly, Takara should swallow some pride and hire these people if possible.

    That is pretty smart. Swoop is the reason I haven't tried getting the full size G1 dinobots. If there is an affordable Swoop, I might try for the rest too.
