Grimlock reminds me alot of how kiryu looked on fansproject\'s dinoking. These bois will need alot of retooling to look like those fellows

 

Not a fan. Don’t need mini dinobots or a mini dinoking. I’d be interested in voyager dinobots that didn’t combine or chug dinoking.

 

i find it hilarious how dinoking isnt gonna be taller than deathsaurus's leg, and thats why i want it

 

On the one hand these make terrible Dinobots in general. They look like utter crap to me.
On the other hand, with some remolded parts, they might work ~ok~ as rando monsters for Monstructor.
On the other-other hand, I'd rather have a full sized combiner.

that could make for a neat custom, but I'd rather have actual core class updates of all these guys as cassettes.
I have too many stereo and tape deck bots and not enough cassettes to go around.

 

Goryu (leader of dinoking and also a trex) was the left leg.

It's hippocritical as many of these "size equals price" people probably buy third party legends figures.

 

Right. New heads like I said. Easy peasy.

 

i think if we get a monstructor, the team will be mostly new molds but share similar engineering with the volcanicrew

 

Tons of flaws but WHO CARES! I'm all in. I like the idea of using core class as a combiner subline. I would be okay with Raiden getting remade in core class. Or every combiner getting remade in core class.

The best thing is how securely they fit together when combined. I'm glad Hasbro is listening and understanding we don't want floppy combiners.

 

getting these. cant wait for the whole team.

 

Scrapper was the nominal leader of the Constructicons and he formed Devastator's right leg.

I'm just kinda meh on the Core Dinobots. The lack of decent articulation hurts - I know it was a sacrifice made for combiner mode, but even that just isn't doing much for me. I think these will be skips.

Also really want that Commander Armada OP reveal.

On another note related to Armada: it's kinda weird how the Prime/Animated characters are getting highly stylized new toys while the Armada bots are super anime-accurate. Not sure why this was the direction they went with, but...

 

Wow, core class is even smaller than I thought. Seeing Volanicus next to Earthrise Prime puts things into perspective.

 

I've never purchased a 3P Legends figure, as I dont collect at that scale, I collect at Generations scale, for me size is about being correct to fiction, and its ok if we get core as "mini representations" so long as we get correct scaled ones down the line. If Core is going to be our ONLY Dinoking, I will be severely disappointed.

 

i am in love with these doofy looking guys so much
I for one believe we need more miniature core class combiners like this
I'd LOVE to see a modern sixtrain and sixbuilder similar to this volcanicus

 

Accurate to their original sizes, at least

Seriously, Dinoking was tiiiiny. Like, the size of Rodimus

 

a little color and Grimlock doesn't look THAT bad for being a $10 "triple changer"

 

so.... 60 USD for a DELUXE sized combiner bot.

but I should keep in mind that in my country one Core class bot is 18 USD.

 

Mate, have you seen the aftermarket prices on the Micromaster combiners?

 

There’s plenty of toys that were small originally like bumblebee etc that had more a correct size. Original combiners weren’t big also and we’re obviously made in deluxe sizes etc so hoping for a more proper sized dinoking isn’t some strange thing. People were speculating about a Haslab dinoking a while back. I’m sure that wasn’t a core class in their minds. The original being small for me personally has no bearing on this one

 

Not so much Deluxe. More like in between Deluxe and Voyager.

 

They clearly put the combined mode first. Like WAAAAYYYY first. Too much first. Those individual modes are garbage. Slag is the best one and it still looks bad on its own but not terrible like the other two.

EASY passes. AS DINOBOTS.

Now, would I buy a Monstructor/Dinoking redeco/remold? Quite possibly. Especially if they make Dinoking with the dino shells.
