    Do you think that HasTak or possibly a 3rd party company will ever release a new set of dinobots MP style?

    HasTak - very very very unlikely
    3rd Party - Possible but also unlikely.

    Also don't really need to ask the same question in two different threads, may be considered spam

    I can see a 3rd party picking up this project but not in MP scale grimlock was a good contender in that department but to have them all be that scale would be just kinda silly not only that but the packaging for them would be insane. I can see them more along the lines of a smaller scale possibly close to their G1 size but slightly larger I would think just only to help with articulation difficulties. I would really like to see a remake of them honestly, I never got to own them as a child nor did I buy the MP grimlock when I should have so I would welcome a new release of them with no hesitation.

    The WST Dinobots from some years back was an awesome set.

    IGear has plans.

    I wouldn't count hastak out. They are bringing us a Sideswipe after all and how many people would have said no to that 6 months back (actually how many DID say no).

    These just feel too different from the G1 cartoon for me to even care.

    I don't think we know yet. I believe it was Venksta who confirmed that there is another company doing them and their working on Swoop right now. Venksta is a very reliable source for these third parties.

    I dunno... I like all 5 dinobots, but it seems like Hasbro only cares about Grimlock.
