okay, so i've got just about every single dinosaur mold ever released, including the bazillion repaints they've done...and all the japanese versions too...but i'm thinking of thinning it out a little...are the armada dinobots worth anything? what about any other of those molds? except the japanese, those are the only ones that i'm definately keeping.... edit: i'm gonna compile a list of every dinoformer i have....excluding transmetals.... BW dinobot BW grimlock BW FK dinobot BW 10th dinobot BW JP hardhead BM Dinotron BW JP Thrustor Armada Grimlock BW terrorsaur BW laserbeak Armada swoop BW JP Killerpunch Armada Triceradon Universe Triceradon BM Triceradon BW JP Guiledart Armada Snarl BW JP Saberback BM Striker Universe Striker BW JP Sling Armada Sludge BM Airraptor Armada Slapper BW JP Bazooka BM magmatron BM skydive Universe Repaint - dont remember if i actually got him though... T Wrecks Megatron 30 total dinos, plus transmetals and g1's and g2's....i kinda like dinosaurs....
BM Dinobots fetch almost nothing, except sometimes Rapticon for some odd reason. Because of the weapon peg remold making it superior to Dinobot II? The cool colors? The Wal-Mart two-pack Armada Dinobots are still somewhat valuable. You can still net $40 or $50 for the six. The original BW dinosaur molds vary. I imagine Grimlock is valuable for having GPS, the character, being a harder to find repaint and for his appearance in the comics now - any version of the character Dinobot is otherwise not a high seller. The original Terrorsaur is quite popular, as is Fractyl for obvious reasons. Respective TM and TM2 versions aren't too expensive. I'm sure there's still some demand for BW2 Thrustol. BW Neo Bazooka and Sling have had a recent upwelling of demand, but the deluxe molds are worthless except Killer Punch. I think I covered them in a nutshell.
i edited my first post with every dino i've got...i may have left one or two off, i gotta double check tonight... and if i sell the armada bots, i wanna keep slapper, cuz that's one of my favorite molds
You've duplicated the list of Swoops and Terrorsaurs... unless you have two of each. Forgot about the Universe repaints, but they follow the same pattern as most of the BM Dinobots - worth jack and shit.
oh....doh...edited the list...i'm not sure what i should do...maybe i'll just keep them all and have an ultra massive dino collection...
LOL, noticed something else. Unless you're grouping them as Transmetals for some odd reason, you're missing two - Beast Machines Skydive, and his Universe recolor.
they are more transmetalish to me then normal beast... they really dont fit well with either group, IMHO....but i guess i could add them.. actually, i dont think i ever got the universe version....i'll have to check tonight....
i dont count energon grimlock and swoop either, just going beast era figures...otherwise i'd have to add in another 10 figures or so....and i think i'm gonna end up selling E grim and swoop anyways...
