Hmm, interesting. These might be my Classics Dinobots.

Even if you personally don't like the idea of dinobots combining, it's obvious that most people do. Do a search on ebay for "dinobot combiner" and see how many crappy customs there are and what people are willing to pay for them. It's about time a third party made one that was actually GOOD.

And yes, Hasbro is moronic for not doing this themselves. They made Grimlock into other gimmicky stuff like Pretenders, etc., but never made the dinobots into the original gimmick -- a combiner? Utterly stupid.

I could live with them being not molded exactly to resemble G1, provided they have G1 colors. However, the scale really screws them up. Not only are they out of scale in the TF kingdom, but they are out of scale in the dinosaur kingdom as well. I mean, look at sludge. Why is he the smallest instead of the largest ???? Sludge should have been the torso. And dont give me the lame excuse about "the torso always has to be the leader". Scrapper was a freakin leg on Devastator. I have no intrest in the combiner feature anyways and since the robot modes are not going to be G1, they would get displayed in dino mode. But the scale sucks.

Gotta see more of the Defensor team before I comment.

Doesn't look too bad really, hopefully the Ropbot modes are pretty decent.

I want to see the robot forms before I decide..

Look @ that custom dinobot custom everyone would want that. Next to a city TF the dino's r suppose to be the badest bots out their. I'm happy somebody went above & beyond to give us want 90% of TF fans always wanted to see hasbro do. It looks great so far can't what to see the finished product!

I for one don't want the Dinobots to ever combine again. Seriously, cut this sh!t out. Saying they should combine is like saying the Wreckers should combine or the Sweeps or the Headmasters. It's all just unnecessary. Most fans actually don't want a dinosaur combiner. Or at least not that one.

The original gimmick was transforming and only the Actionmasters didn't do that which is a gimmick in itself "yo dawg" style.

@ Zod you cut it out homie you make up that 10% that don't wanna see that & majority rules. If didn't nobody wanna that we would be having this discussion or this toy being made. Like i said that custom Dino combiner Extinction was amazing! If this company is smart enough to make them I think they aren't finished makin them into the way we always pictured. The wreckers, hm, & sweeps noone wanted to see them combine but they do & have wanted to see the Dino's that's a fact.

The combined mode is pretty sweet no doubt but i'm not interested. I don't need or want combining Dinobots. Excellent figure though.

I'm not a fan of the Dino combining, so if these look good in robot mode, I'll buy them and just not combine them

They all look like cracking figures but they're just not my thing. I could never be happy with a Defensor who's bigger than a Dinobot combiner.
