I was thinking the same since I have them as well but then I saw SS86 Grimlock in Walmart. Once I realized how huge he was I had to have him.

Until this comment I didn't realize the slingshot came out of his hand lol and the slingshot post is the same size as the PotP Prime Master pretender armor hands and the Kingdom core-class hands, 3mm I think?

3mm, yeah. Which makes it too small for TR Wheelie which uses 5mm.

I've got Vertebreak coming soon from Kapow, so my Slash will have her bony arch-nemesis! She looks pretty cool, though her lack of thigh swivels does have me slightly concerned. I do like how she's coloured like an actual fossil though rather than clean fresh bone.

Beeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssssttttttttttttt Waaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrsssssssssssss

Also, it's kind of incredible that the beats seem to sort of be in scale with the 6" lines. Between them and the MPs, one of them is in scale and both look pretty good with the 6-inchers!

Just got Vertebreak from Pulse (Cores are the first to be distributed) and she's very nice. Though trying to move the rubbery giblets the first time around made me nervous.
If this is what the Core class is offering, I'm hopeful for where it'll go!

She makes me long for more original characters. The Modulators and Fossilizers are a good start, but I hope this trend continues into the next Trilogy.

Small one is Unicron.com 3P die-cast Golden Disks. Big one is a 1/1 scale replica from Etsy.

Nice! I am looking forward to a video review, because that transformation looks interesting. Kinda bummed the faux dino chest are not hidden in beast mode tho.

I'd say the use of those parts as part of the beast mode thighs is a pretty clever way of hiding them in plain sight, making the most out of the figure's raptor skin parts for the beast mode.

Definitely gong all Kathy Bates on his dino hands Misery style...or would it be un-Kathy Batesing them. Not keen on how they poke out in botmode either. Some paint on his knees/shins and his sword to hide the purple end might be worth doing too.

I see the Golden Disk is prominently factored in. LOL

Damn.. Dinobot looks really nice. If only BBTS and. Amazon would get the Kingdom figures in so I could ship my pre-orders, I'd be really happy.

The teeth overhang/over bite looks pretty bad with the mouth closed

Fellow Seibertronian Actar found the Transformers WFC Kingdom wave 2 voyagers at the Isetan
department store in Singapore. He took several in hand images, comparing him to Kingdom Primal and many previous versions of Dinobot for your viewing pleasure. He also did a video review. All of this awesome content can be found below.

I found Wave 2 of the Deluxes at an Aldi’s in a neighboring town if that helps.

I really like the bot mode, but the dino mode is disappointing to say the least.

News Credits: 2 · by **Rodimus Knight** » Wed Jan 27, 2021 8:02 am

I was really hoping the red rocket tail was just a prototype thing on Dinobot.
What were they thinking!!!

News Credits: 22 · by **Rodimus Prime** » Wed Jan 27, 2021 9:06 am

Yeah the dino mode is somewhat of a fail for Dinobot. I'll be keeping him in bot mode mostly, so no big deal, but those hands...ugh.

News Credits: 5 · by **Overcracker** » Wed Jan 27, 2021 9:14 am

Yeah the hands in Dino mode are weird. I can see a 3rd party making some articulated ones that look nicer and can fold in to space for them.

I'm definitely going to have to get a gold sharpie to detail his calf bone ridges like the MP.

I think the raptor hands just need another joint. I wonder if the lack of paint is so they can do a more show accurate version later. Also makes me think the back-of-box image might be part of a recolor later. Either way, I think I'll wait on a different version to pick him up.

why tf do he and Grimlock not have teeth in the front?? and it looks like with Dinobot after all their imaginative energies went into the top half of robot mode they were just like, f**k it, regarding the paint and plastic color applications to the robot mode bottom half lol...
