Swoop, sludge, and snarl don't look half bad to me, but I don't like Grimlock and Slag's dinosaur feet in robot mode, that is kind of a deal breaker for me....it looks cool in those drawings, but not the actual toy.

I might be interested, but I would need to see the finals first in G1 colors.

Still holding out hope for official FOC Dino's. The artwork is killer for them how can Hasbro go wrong? Even if we got just 2 others besides Grimlock would be happy.

FoC doesn't even have all the Dinobots, though. And just look at the sizes we've got. With the bulk on the Dinos they'd probably be as small as FoC Prime. Which is NOT my idea of awsome Dinobots.

Yes you are probably right, if FOC dinos were that small it would not be that cool. I don't have the game they don't have all 5? We have seen artwork for all 5 though?

I guess I have in my mind that if they did them they would be normal deluxe size and I would gladly take that. However, other than masterpeice Dinos I don't see Hasbro ever creating Classics Dino's that are as big or slightly bigger than Classics Prime to be in proper scale.

I'm not sure about these TFC dino's though, Like I said, I only really like 2 or 3 of 5. I have to believe some other 3rd party will do these eventually, and better; Hopefully I-gear although I don't feel like waiting 5 years for that....

You'd think the Dinos would be top priority for anybody, but that doesn't seem to be the case. A few projects were announced but so many projects are announced and who can say whether they'll ever be done?

*does a quick check on foC* oop, you're right they are all there. I'm just totally off on that point.

Well, the more I see them the more interested I am. You can't expect a 3rd party to rip off the g1 look completely and it is not a bad update for the most part. I would completely ignore the combined mode though.

I'm just wanting to know why there is little to no info on these guys especially after first seeing pics over a year ago?

Were the non-g1 colored versions already released in Asia?

It doesn't seem like there has been any official announcements from TFC on them either?

I would not pay Herc prices for a G1 colored version of these though, maybe not even half of Herc's price...only final painted pics might change my mind....

Impossible Toy's offerings are as copied as you can get from the G1 designs and so is Delicate Warrior. So I don't give them as much of a pass as you do for the faces. But, still, it isn't bad. I don't mind updated looks (although I wouldn't mind new faces made by another company).

As far as I know these were never released. They were first shown before Herc was even finished, so maybe they figured they'd get that done and see what happens. As for pricing, well, ... expect Herc pricing.

I agree on the faces, but that seems to be TFC's style?

The Herc members faces weren't spot on and it looks like Uranus member faces might differ a little from G1 as well.

TFC sucks a bit when it comes to faces.

I'm disappointd there isn't a company doing something about that, actually. Herc and the Insecticons all could use new heads.

I think we have all been waiting long enough for a full team of Dinos...and personally i think all of the FOC line is too "neo" or futuristic to fit in with my G1 shelves.

Although I agree they dont necessarily need to be a combiner team (and not cannon at all)...i think this is a cool additional option. My main point is we have gone without them for so long a decent team of them is finally a good option, combiner or no, they can always be left in individual mode and serve as my G1 dino team.

every time I look at the TFC Insecticons I can barely make out their heads.
