I just noticed something, though. I don't recall my G1 Sludge having a movable head. Do these WSDs actually have more articulation than the originals..? :shock:


Some do. The paint and coloring is improved in that it is cartoon accurate.

These are the closest I think we will ever see to a Dinobot reissue anytime soon and they are damn good replicas IMO.

Ya know, if I was serious about collecting these (and I'm considering it!) I'd be perfectly find with their size as is. Don't get me wrong, the regular sized ones have their charm, but these guys...for some reason they seem to be the perfect version for me.

Although I do kinda find it a bit hard to swallow considering you have to remove Snarl's hands/forearms for beast mode.

Ah well. At that price, and a fully complete set, plus Reprolabls (for the small Autobot symbols) is a tremendous deal.

But then I'm afraid I'm gonna get hooked on WST...and I can't afford to do that. It's a domino effect and we're *all* susceptible.

For anyone just starting to collect the WSD, TFsource has about the best deal on them for the 3 that are already out. $45.90 for all 3 WSD.

Motto: "I once lost a battle. So long ago I can barely remember it."
Weapon: Thermal Melters
Justitoys has made some of the nicest TFs in recent years. Tak/Tomy should offer up a license for their products to them like they did with ehobby.

Longs for the days of G1 where we only had to worry about Megatron, Soundwave and Laserbeak wanting to be Autobots, Swoop calling himself Tracks and Slingshot calling himself Slingslot!

Alright, I want these. Does anybody know if they are releasing a box set of all 5? I may hold off ordering if they do.

I was really impressed with Grimlock and Slag. Snarl on the other hand had many loose parts, hopefully Sludge and Swoop will be of the quality of Grimlock. Also if Justitoys stays true to form these will be painted to be cartoon accurate. Can't wait !!

hi, yesterday i contacted justitoys because of swoop's cholor scheme. i thought it might interest someone here what they answered me. here are the mails:

ORIGINAL MESSAGE:
hi,
i just have one suggestion for you guys from justitoys: PLEASE paint swoop's (the mystery figure's) chest BLUE, to make it show-accurate, just like you did with slag's (flamethwower's) face.
i recently pre-ordered both new dinobots at tfsource.com, and i am a little bit disappointed because of the red chest on the prototype images. red does not look good on him, he doesn't look that way in the cartoon. at least, bring out a blue repaint later on, if it is possible.

thank you for your great work and your amazing toys.
regards,
max

JUSTITOYS' ANSWER:
hi, Max
thank for writing.
the pics on our website are ONLY prototype pics, they are NOT final product pics.
we are making this set a TV accurate color set. i think you'll be satisfied with the swoop color feel free to check our website for the final shots
thanks
regards

I got Grimlock yesterday and was so impressed I ordered Slag and will get the other 3 as soon as Swoop & Sludge are out.
JustItToys should be allowed to make an "official" line of regular sized Dinobots if Takara don't want to make new molds from intact versions of the original toys.

I just got an e-mail from tfsource saying my order has shipped, but I'm not sure if that means my nike free magnus shipped or the dinobots. There is no word yet on the site.

For anyone needing to catch up on the WST Dinorobots, I picked up 2 from an ebay seller in the USA who is selling Grimlock and Slag for $9.98 after shipping! He has several left.
