Dinobot cassettes?

I wanted the g1 cassettes

I will get whatever cassettes are made.

Now I'm interested! I just might buy these, assuming they are decently engineered

I was excited for the Dinocasettes. Although I just may get these, the Dinocasettes could have really used the update.

On the flipside, this means a Slugfest and Overkill are very likely.

These are the mix tapes my high school girlfriend never gave me... :-(

I agree, and welcome these guys! KFC is becoming the Columbia House of 3P. Shame I can only comment on Rhinohorn (which I do like a lot), that Steeljaw hopefully will cement my opinion of the company.

Anyone else find it frustrating that the first full set of 5 Dinobots that we'll get since their original release in 1984/85 might be in cassette form?

We had all 5 plus one in the Armada Dinobots in 2003.

Plus Justitoys made all 5 Dinobots.

I'm more along the lines of "awwww, I was hoping for official takes!" I don't have much interest in Dinobot cassettes. Hopefully TFC will make some of these able to be repurposed for Dinocasette combiners and have what I was REALLY looking forward to still coming down the line.

I'd be a little more behind this is they just took their own takes on the official dinosaur cassettes (the Dinocasettes, Slugfest, and Overkill) and applied Dinobot color schemes to them.

I stand corrected. Still frustrated that there aren't any good Classic-style dinobots though.

That was my first thought except the Japanese dino cassettes didn't include a triceratops.

Anyone seen the photo Eagle's TF recently posted to weibo? I wonder if it's related to this project.

Here is an early render of Bladeback (not-Snarl).

Two of the Dino bots will be retools of these 2 with different weapons.

Speaking of which, do those two have their own thread around here somewhere that I've missed?

Also, does anyone know why KFC decided to make Slugfest fluorescent green and pink rather than his proper deco?:

I'd considered getting those two until I saw how off Slugfest's colors were.
