New photos of Platinum Dinobot heads, with video and name reveals

Transformers News: New photos of Platinum Dinobot heads, with video and name reveals

With the 2015 Platinum edition sets all revealed, it only makes sense that this line gets less news these days. However, fellow Seibertronian Bill_Stickers has dug up some excellent shots of the new Hasbro Transformers Generations Platinum Dinobots set featuring the Age of Extinction Dinobot molds in G1 deco. There has been a debate whether these were the G1 Dinos themselves (in a Generations update) or rather the AOE Dinos in a G1 deco with G1 heads. Well, this new review from MACULA brings even more mystery with the reveal that the names are the same as the AOE names. Hence, this set includes SLOG, SLUG and STRAFE. So is this AOE Strafe in G1 deco, gen G1 Swoop or gen G1 Strafe? Afterall, there is no other Generations Strafe so far. Instead of being anymore facetious, how about we just get to the meat. Below is a quick video review of this set still in it's packaging, as well as stills of the heads and some other angles to the previously seen shots, courtesy of Bladestorm of Ozformers.

Especially considering how simple they would have been to approximate; Did they even do a legion class for that line?

*edit, if I remember correctly they were too busy (not) selling the fast-action bullsh!t to put effort into actual transformers.

The headsculpts look fantastic. Particularly enjoying the ones on Grimlock and Slag. Dunno what it is about them, they just work for me.

Where exactly are you going to be able to buy these? Doesn't look like the kind of thing my local Toys R Us would get in.

Are they much different to the SDCC set, colour wise etc?

It should be available at TRU, I dont see why it wouldnt. Afterall, TRU did have this set:

Thanks, that's pretty much how I remember it. Seems like since MP Skywarp (Walmart Exclusive), the MPs have all been Toys R Us exclusives, unless I am missing something. I think that's why I wasn't thinking of the MPs with the Dinobot exclusives. But, no word on who is going to have the Dinobots, eh?

Probably Walmart. They sold Predaking and the two pack flip and change AOE bundle that were exclusive to chains we dont have, and they also have the seekers.

Oh and speaking of the Blaster set...

Target getting all the G1 reissues for the US distribution was quite an interesting move for the chain. While SDCC revealed all the exclusives Target would have we still didn't know what the prices would be. Well now we at least know the price for the Autobot Intel Ops set featuring Perceptor, Blaster and 3 casettes. This is thanks to a listing from Target showing it at 99.99$. There is no stock as of now, but keep this link in your favourites for when it does becomes available. It is actually 20$ cheaper than at TFSource (which is sold out there anyway). And stay subscribed to this thread if you want the latest info on this set's availability and the others being released this year.

Is it just me, but do these prices seem pretty terrible? I remember the older re-issues were fairly tame at about $30...

Last time Perceptor was reissued, he was running at 34.99 at TRU. This set includes Blaster and cassettes in addition. Seems a bit, but not entirely unreasonable.

Wasn't soundwave released with his cassettes once for a more reasonable price?

Soundwave is much smaller than Blaster. This Blaster is actually the reissued set from 2010 which was an SDCC exclusive, I dont know how much it cost then, but it was going for 140$ onTFsource before it was sold out.

And plus, you get new exclusive accessories you never had before. Plus inflation from 6 years ago (remember how much a deluxe cost back then?). This sounds very fair to me.

Last I recall Soundwave being reissued was way back in 2007... and I think he only came with Laserbeak & Ravage:

At the time he was 29.99.

I think there was an SDCC version with more cassettes, but that definitely went for more.

Ah, right, I forgot he was in singapore, yeah makes sense.

And Hellscream, you can always wait for a discount. I paid my predaking only 100$ and I am waiting for the coneheads to go lower too.

That price is easier to swallow. The hard pill is the Insecticons for $79.99 at K-Mart.

A couple of weeks ago,I was over on a side of town I'm not in that often, and remembered there was K-Mart there. I stopped to see if they had the Insecticons. Indeedy do they did. At least 2 full cases worth. The pegs were baron, although I did snag CW Rod and Warp (suprise! :shock: ), but there were plenty of bugs.

I predict these well simmer until Xmas super sales. I bet they will be very easy to snag at a more palatable price.

:-$ P.S. K-Mart is a dump. :(

Good thing is Target is not shy about clearing things out at reduced prices. This set is timed right so that if it sits it will be discounted by the end of September to get ready for the holiday shipments. :DANCE:

Walmart.ca (only available to canada). Well look, we all have choices to make. I chose to not get CW Megs (any of them), none of the none G1 CW Voyager torsos, none of wave 4 and no MPs. Instead I will try to get the conehead and perceptor/blaster reissue, the Legends Ladies (Blackarachnia and Slipstream), Legends Arcee and TAV 21. I buy whatever makes me happiest with the limited income I have. Choose what makes you happiest. I personally want to experience G1, and these prices are as fair as any other (way more fair than 20$ for a deluxe) but it might not be everyone's cup of tea.

Oh, I know all about that, its the reason why I basically haven't bought tf's in recent years, I was saving up for the inevitable line that I would go semi-completionist on. But there is something to wanting that little sliver of history in your collection, ya know?

Aside from the "slides" and the extra autobot decal on Perceptor's chrome "mirror", I'd say you have better luck getting the TFC versions cheaply. Then hunt for the Encore cassettes.

If the price is very wide in difference then the current SRP will be just fine. Except you still don't get Rewind.

Oh, I totally get that. So much so that I am favoring that sliver of history over other stuff. I find it so cool that we can still obtain nice brand new toys of that era. Too bad it isnt at the price of the Ninja Turtle rereleases though (just got 1988 Shredder brand new for 7$).

At least the price for this set is way much better than the price for the Insecticons. However, I'm not that surprised about the price since everything you buy will get more expensive as time goes by.

I like em. $99 is about right for two reissues of g1 with cassetes. I like that RID Grimlock too. It's a step in the right direction.

I already got a complete vintage G1 Rewind a while ago. It was 20$CAN, but still, I have it. Now, only Blaster remain.

I forget, but we did mention that the platinum triple changer set was at Amazon right? We had been wondering which retailer would have them in the US and it seems to be them (exclusively). It is the only platinum edition sold directly from them and not a third party.

http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Platinum-Decepticon-Triple-Changers/dp/B00UCTS9UM/ref=sr_1_1?tag=seibertron07-20&ie=UTF8&qid=1439778647&sr=8-1&keywords=transformers+platinum

At 70$ Though, I think that makes it more pricey than what they were selling on e-bay from hongkong.

Dont know if that makes them the official retailer in Canada too.

Amazon discounted something like 20 of these guys to $45 on 'Prime Day' - they went fast. I was lucky to pick it up at that price!

At 70$ Though, I think that makes it more pricey than what they were selling on e-bay from hongkong.

Dont know if that makes them the official retailer in Canada too.

Amazon discounted something like 20 of these guys to $45 on 'Prime Day' - they went fast. I was lucky to pick it up at that price!


Oh thats right, now I remember. Well, I am glad you picked him up!

So.... is that Platinum Trypticon ever going to get a wider release? BBTS still haven't had a pre-order up for this thing. One would've thought this could have been a BBTS exclusive or something.

DEspite the high price tag, the distribution penetration is still slow eh?
