    Trust Wikipedia with a grain of salt.

    On the other hand, a Transmetal Dinobot, Blacharachina, and Skorponok were made as McDonalds toys.

    3rd mode not included. Though I suppose you could squeeze one out of Dinobot if you just lift up his yellow dinosaur arms. Makes him look like he has glider arms.

    I have pics of a fuzor optimus primal(eagle/ape)(guess they decided to go with TM for him)
    Transmetal blackarachnia
    Transmetal Scorponok
    Transmetal Tigatron(not a cheetor mold recolor or the botcon version)
    But I do not think I have seen the TM Dinobot.

    I'm much happier with anything Dinobot.

    I mean, Rhinox got a transmetal but he never got one in the show. Same with Airrazor and Terrorsaur.

    So to see Dinobot get the shaft just disappoints me.

    Tarantulas needs a deluxe in classics 3.0, and so does that Dinobot.

    ONe side note. That dinobot pic posted does not seem to have a bot mode. IT is way too thin.

    I've never seen that Dinobot but I've seen that Scorponok (damn sweet) and the BA. But I can't remember where. Unicron.com maybe?
