    Took a few pics of TM2 Dinobot earlier so I figured I'd share them here.

    Bought a MOSC Transmetal Airrazor for like $60 because nostalgia and because I didn't like the colors of the cheaper loose Fox Kids repaint. I think mine is the lavender chrome variant, but I'm not sure of all the variants out there and don't really care.

    I'd say I'm not doing that again, but I'd probably almost sell one of my kidneys for Metals Megatron simply because I want a TM Megatron in the more or less correct colors that won't crumble into plastic shards and broken dreams and despair. ^^;
    Nice! I DO know Dinobot came in that tan white and bleached white. How? I've owned both. The tan one didn't survive my childhood, so now I have a bright white one.

    Sadly, these pictures show off the toy's best mode by a mile... ;_;

    I still love basic Rattrap. He's honestly cuter in robot mode than beast mode.

    Looking to buy a 10th anniversary Tarantalus, but struggling not to cave into paying more than 40 dollars...

    I bought MP Primal, and it's just been downhill for my wallet lol

    It's important to keep in mind it's in a list of movie-verse names and is more likely to to be "Dinobot Slug/Grimlock/Slash etc" from the movie toys whose names are expiring rather than a random beast wars figure among dark of the moon trademarks.

    I'd be super happy to see him pop up in TR or POTP but I think we need more evidence to say that for sure.
