After seeing that guys custom mp dinobot I thought would anyone be willing to pay $100 or more for each dinobot, considering if they did all of them it would $500 before shipping. So I wonder how many people on the site would be willing to do that. Speak up if your willing or if not explain why.

Absolutely!
Yeah that's alot of money but the figures would be awesome, I would hope anyway.

I wish they would eventually do an MP version of pretty much every figure for the first 4 series of G1 toys. That would be all I'd collect.

At any rate I would love to see them all.

Snarl for sure, but not the entire team.

I'd definitely go for all five dinobots. And they release MP's one at a time, so it's not like you're dropping $500 on the spot.

I would, no doubt.

If they were taller than Prime and weren't just oversized G1 figures... sure, I would start saving my money.

In theory I would be a yes, but I'd like to see the figures first, before purchasing. I didnt like MP Starscream or Megatron much, so I skipped them, and I would be willing to do the same for any Dino's that I didnt think were worth $100.

I would, but it would have to be a vastly improved versions of their G1 selves, not just super articulated giant G1 clones.

Count me in for two of each. One to open and one to keep MISB. Cool $grand$ for me :grin:

i would prefer they release them as reissues first cause that's looong overdue. then maybe get the mp treatment but not as a set. one by one would be much kinder to the wallets.

I agree. I wouldn't be interested if it's only an oversized custom. Masterpieces need to have more bells and whistles. More detail and more complex transformations in my opinion.

Not before MP Devestator.

Well it appears that the answer to that question is yes. A giant MP Devestator would also be cool, Could see that but would it be orignial style with six vehical and how would they combine. That why I said the dinobots because you don't have to deal with figuring out how to make them combine as well as being super detailed.

Definitely would buy a complete set of MP Dinobots. That would probably be the end of collecting for me, cause nothing could top that.

Oh wow. Am I an idiot.

I could've sworn this thread title said "Would anyone be willing to buy me a complete MP Dinbot set?"

Wow. I think I need a break from the 'net for a bit. lol

yes! absolutely. if i'm willing to buy all the seeker MPs (which i am willing to do) which are nothing more than repaints then spending the $ on 5 distinctly different figures is a no brainer for me.

Ditto, fo' shizzle. Although, given the bulk of their dino modes, that should give whoever designed them more mass to play with. Biggest problem I think Megs and Scream had was their alt modes didn't have enough bulk to allow for really cartoon-accurate robot modes.

Yes.

Yes, but not like the upscaled "MP" Slag pics going around. I would want true Masterpieces. Especially Swoop and Grimlock. The rest I would buy just to round out the set. I wouldn't even hesitate to pre-order. Not on a single one. I need an MP Swoop before I die.

Of all the subgroups I'd want to get a full set of in MP form the Dinobots would be top of the list. It wouldn't be cheap but it would be an awesome display.

Same, though a set of series 2 seekers would not be amiss either.
