    What he means is that the only part of the robot noticeable is the knee:

    But this part, this speceific part, is part of the skin of the raptor

    Wich almost hide the most parts of the robot, and the thights for sure.

    Isn't perfect for sure, but is a more solid animal mode than cheetor.

    Definitely dinobot is not the worst, you can't see overrall too much gaps or kibble, or holes of the robot out of the animal like primal or cheetor.
    At least with dinobot NOTHING is out of place, everything fits into the raptor.

    I don't think Dinobot's the worst beast mode yet either, I think Cheetor's worse. Primal has the best one but he has it easy admittedly, not really hard to get that transformation scheme developed properly.

    But again, CG image. Once this is painted and we see gold or blue parts sticking out of the torso I might change my opinion.

    So TT is just crapping out MP BW with three molds already while the regular line takes freaking ages to get a new mold?

    This is the sorta crap that starts problems. Most people will give valid opinions and comparisons between the two groups. If there are people actually saying the things you mentioned above, then it's best to just block them instead of perpetuating it.

    Yeah, 30 something "regular line" molds compared to 3.

    Just replace the "I" in your user name with a "T." Cripes.

    Also I want to add that if I say Cheetor's beast mode is "worse" it's like saying one gem is uglier than another. Personal opinion and kinda splitting hairs since both are beautiful.

    Cheetor is still fantastic, and as with all the BW MP’s so far the robot modes are spot on which is nothing short of magic considering that these transform into mighty fine looking beasts and are based on cheating CG models from a 90's TV show.

    What? You had Inferno after Primal, Megatron after Cheetor and you're getting Sunstreaker before Dinobot. How is that any less than the BW offerings? Stop it with the childish butthurt already; enjoy what you have and what you get.

    Also, this is the regular line; Beast Wars is now forever a part of it, deal with it.

    Is it confirmed he'll have a swappable faction insignia gimmick?? I'm more of a 'Dinobot as a Pred' kinda guy ... always felt he shoulda just off'd Megs and taken the throne by force S1 ... his Starscream-esque inability to truly challenge el jefe always weakened him in my eyes unfortunately ... like the Maximals were the fat chic he just settled with to save face lol

    I'm not a BW fan, but I have to admit that the level of sorcery Takara was able to pull with this guy seems on par with MP 36. Incredible.

    Your own question bears repeating for the Beast Wars line. ;)
