Along with all the Wonderfest news, including the Transformers: The Last Knight line being announced and revealed by Takara Tomy - as reported here - we also have via Snakas blog a piece of news that may otherwise have gone unnoticed: is it possible the next Masterpiece figure, after Optimus Primal and Cheetor, will be Beast Wars Dinobot? (Very probably yes indeed.) Check out the image below, and discuss away in the Energon Pub!

Spawn of a Glitch...

It would make complete sense though. And it would be Awesome!

I think I had a mini-heart attack when I saw this. Can't wait to see the actual figure.

For whomever it may concern, don't be fooled by those silhouettes. They aren't representative of the final product, for they are just Mainframe stock CG models that have been blackened out (and mirrored, in the beast mode's case):

And, well, Dinobot also always saw himself as a Predacon at heart.

So he can swing both ways! An introduction to bad guys while not being strictly speaking a bad guy himself!

I share similar sentiment.

Origin of the silhouettes be damned; with the success :TAKARATOMY: have had with Masterpiece figures recently and the awe-inspiring transformations that have taken third parties to task, I can't imagine this being anything than a complete winner. I don't know how they'll do it, but I have faith that they wouldn't be doing it otherwise.

I'd like to see him have a similar faction-symbol-swapping gimmick to the Universe toy.

The Universe toy that this Masterpiece should easily 1-up by a billion miles.

:TAKARATOMY: "What, this isn't what you meant by wanting MP Dinobots?"

Should Hasbro make a white Grimlock version? :-? I'd buy it.
