    Fanstoys for MP, Planet X for FOC, I intend to get AOE Snarl and Sludge to go with Grimlock, Slag, and Swoop, and I'll likely pick up any CHUG figures that Hasbro makes. If they make MPs, I may or may not get them depending on how much more advanced they are than Fans Toys. Though I doubt it. I would however love an updated MP Grimlock that's bigger, has articulated fingers, and no tail-wagging gimmick (otherwise, MP Grimmy's perfect as is).

    Planet X for me. Their FoC designs are gorgeous!

    Undecided on the AoE toys, might get one to repaint.

    FT all the way...that much is for sure.

    though i may indulge in some FT for my CHUGs too if there any slow collectign months ahead (doubtful)...also they will be too short for the newer preferred 3P scale...i can't have my dinobots shorter/same-ish as oriona dn hegemon...or can i?

    I need to see both modes from all the companies but after MechaForm just posted there Paddles I am now leaning that way for the time being.

    Not sure if I'll get any but if I do it'll be FP or PX.

    I think maybe Planet X would do Paddles too.

    I need to see pricing and both modes, but either MechaForm or Planet X might get my money for Paddles. That said, I know Planet X does good quality, but I am not familiar with Mechaform. I guess price will play a big part, cause I like the alt mode of Mechaform's Paddles.

    Price your right can play a factor with most.But Planet X more fills my FOC itch then CHUG.

    I'm really in for whatever looks cool.

    Right now that is FansProject, especially the proto of Slag.
    That looks bossa nova cool.

    I'm excited about other people taking a whack at Grimlock, and so far by the silhouettes, I like the proportions of the FansToys, but we'll see how they turn out.

    FT all the way, but would definitely pick up fp series on sale or clearance for $70 each. $103 is too rich for my blood for something that cannot justify the price. If it doesn't drop in price, then I'll just live vicariously thru forum pics and peaugh reviews.

    Fansproject for me. I prefer their aesthetic and their toys have, in my opinion, the most consistently dependable quality.

    I'm so glad someone's put them all in one place, I was getting so confused!
    Really glad I'm a very focussed collector, otherwise things could get out of hand, there's enough Dinobots here to make my bank balance extinct.

    I'm down for Giga's MP Dinos, and if they bomb, then I may switch to FT's instead.
    But to be honest, I'm only interested in Snarl for my boyfriend, and Sludge for me, because, well, Sludge! In MP form! What's not to like?

    I'm going to be mix and matching between FansProject and Planet X. I have the FP 'Sludge' on pre-order, but I love PX 'Swoop'. PX would have had my money hands down, but they are just taking so long between releases. Hopefully they match close enough that I don't have to buy everything.

    I so wish I could get them all. What an amazing display that would be. I think I'm sticking with FT on this one but good luck to all the rest. It's a beautiful time to be dino fan.

    Fansproject and Planet X for me. Everything Fansproject makes is amazing! Planet X's FOC design also had me since day one. Sucks they take so long to release them but I'll still pick them up.

    FT Dinobots that serve to fill both my MP and CHUG Dinobots and Planet X Dinobots for FOC. That's all I need. The other companies are a pass.
