I'd love to get the rest of the Dinobots in MP version.

I agree, but think Galvatron, Soundwave, or Shockwave should get the next slot.

Looking at the past release schedules, if Takara-Tomy released all of the other 4 Dinobots, it would take a minimum of 2 years to complete only IF they stayed with that production run and didn't release any other figures inbetween.

This is where I'm glad 3rd parties exist. Honestly, how much market appeal would MP Sludge be to today's consumers? It would appeal to G1 enthusiasts and maybe get a few other sales, but not enough to justify a production run the size a large company would hope for.

That being said, if TT/Hasbro is listening, I'd definitely buy a set of these guys if you release them.

No. Convoy should be next. Convoy ALWAYS should be next. He should also be more expensive then the last one. Always.

No need for Encore Dinobots then. MP versions should be a hands down win! ( More to scale with the existing G1 1984/85 'bots)

See the animation size reference, they'd be perfect for the original Convoy

* I can just imagine recreating the scene in SOS Dinobots, Heavy Metal War,Atlantis Rise,Dinobot Island with the entire team.

And unlike old Grimlock, the rest of the Dinobot team didn't come with additional accessories like their boss aside from their weapons, so hopefully won't be too expensive.
