    I've gone with reprolabels mirror backed for my dibot team. the shiny silver works well with the rest of the shiny chrome and provides a good contrast when placed against gold chrome

    No worries. The Stomp package includes both a silver backed and clear backed logo for the dino head.

    I don't use the raised myself. the backing on those I believe are more off a dull silver than a shiny silver. Just making my own recommendation, you gotta run with what speaks best to you

    One looks like a linebacker (Grinder) and the other looks like a basketball player. I like the bulky linebacker look. How about you?

    There are things I like/don't like about both of them. I prefer Rex's alt mode and his dino head. I like how Grinder cleans up in bot mode, and his shoulders are a LOT better than Rex. I'm also assuming Grinder is less floppy than Rex.

    I have Rex, so not sure I'll be getting Grinder. If I didn't have Rex, I probably would though.

    In regards to your question about floppiness, Grinder is about as solid a figure as I own. I suppose he's equivalent to Stomp, to give you an idea.

    Yeah, I was sure that was the case based on recent FT releases, but I didn't want to assume since I don't have Grinder.

    Oh and the cherry on top are the included ALT heads for "Swoop", "Snarl", and "Slag". Because... Damn.
