We have no source on this and it may be fake BUT we did want you to have all the info in case this is the real thing. We knew a Buzzworthy Bumblebee Legacy Dinobot was coming (we were the first to break that news) and now it looks like this is our first look at it. As with the Buzzworthy Terrorsaur, this Dinobot is going for Toy accuracy. That means he comes with the headsculpt that the previous Amazon exclusive Grimlock had. As for the fullness of the pink used, it's too early to judge since we only have one picture and colours can be different depending on lighting.

FABULOUS Dinobot. Please add glitter.

I do, looks like chicken feet.

I’m with you on this. Kingdom and Legacy are giving us some great BW rep without a doubt, but it’s a shame we’ll never get any Transmetals or Fuzors. I would love a Dinobot II and a Silverbolt, most of all a Transmetal Tarantulas.

Nah, turning a raptor into a Pachycephalosaurus, now that would be weird.

Thank you for sharing this pic, I really don't mind making a mess in my pants, really.
As big and fearsome as the Emperor Scorpion looks, it's venom isn't deadly to humans. That's one of the only reasons why these are sold in pet stores. Their poison is more honeybee level. Granted, it would hurt like blazes, so better to NOT get stung. But they're not like the fat-tail scorpions (smaller claws, thicker tails), which CAN be lethal.

I would love to see Dinotron and the other Beast Machines era Dinobots get some love:

Ok so it's not just me. My first thought was a newborn animal of some kind, maybe a chicken. That dark blue face and head just don't go with the rest of that body.JazZeke wrote:Anyone else think that fleshy color is a little unsettling?

That surprisingly works quite well, if it wasn't for the fact that Dino mode would look weirder, I'd say add a bit more red to complete the look.

We still need a Blackarachnia and Leatherhide, except we have no proper mold for the latter, in either form.

I'm pretty sure we'll never see a Generations figure of a Beast Wars Mutant. I think it's more likely we'll get, I don't know, Masterpiece Botbots before that happens.

A shame, though. BW Soundwave was the only Mutant who suffered from GPS. A new one could have fixed that.
Of course, they could get around that by giving us the TR Mindwipe w/ Titan Master Nightbeat retoot we saw in the Convobat/Magna Convoy/Selects manga, and pair that with a Kingdom Blackarachnia redeco.

But the TR Mindwipe mold has problems with its soft plastic wings... ARGH!

That is an amazing idea; using triple changers.
Some proof of concept artwork on that would be awesome.
It follows up on, to me at least, the Generation Toys beast releases of G1 bots and cons.They used the style guide done by a designer; I am forgetting the name currently, possibly T-Beast.

Lastly, the latest Movie Masterpiece figure has just flown in: Decepticon Blackout inspired by the first live-action Transformers movie! This figure features 200+ deco ops, and over 50 points of articulation, and comes with a non-converting Scorponok mini-figure.
These items will be available at later date from Target, with a limited quantity available from Hasbro Pulse. Be sure to keep an eye on our channels for when these items will go live.

The deco on it appears to actually be lifted wholesale from a generic from the Netflix WFC shows, but there's nothing stopping anyone from repurposing it as the Grand Max Cog.Gearslide wrote:So is Red Cog meant to be the Cog that pairs with Grand Max?

It looks like the five blasters are:
1: One standard Cog gun.
2: One standard Cog gun? A second one wasn't shown in the pictures but can be presumed.
3: One Ultra Magnus looking gun.
4: One Chromia looking gun.
5: One Cyberverse Arcee looking gun.
The seven interchangeable barrels/components are:
1. One Chromia looking silencer.
2. One Ultra Magnus looking barrel extension as seen with some 3D printed upgrade sets.
3. One half of a bomb?
4. One half of a bomb? Looks kind of like the Omnitrix when combined.
5. One CW Streetwise/Prowl looking triple barrel shotgun extension.
6. One TMNT Mutagen canister looking extension.
7. One kind of Brunt looking cannon barrel with extra pieces attached to it. This has a 5mm peg on the underside. Maybe it's the fifth blaster instead of the second standard Cog gun. But then what would the last barrel/component be?
They look like the original guns from the other figures but are different. Chromia's blaster doesn't have a 5mm port in front for instance. It normally has a 3mm post instead. Chromia's silencer has the small tab under it whereas this new one doesn't. Also, the Ultra Magnus blaster seems to be quite a bit smaller.
It would've been more interesting to me if those extra pieces where somehow designed to help facilitate combined forms between the Weaponizers/Modulators/Fossilizers. Sometimes all you need is a double ended 5mm port or peg piece or a port to peg to get everything to connect together better. If anything it would be nice if the Powerdashers could have something designed to get them an actual combined mode. Some of those pieces just don't like to play well with the others when combining them. I think it's Zetar's fault for having been made from a Decepticon mold. Maybe in a three pack reissue as some of them are difficult to get a hold of now.

There's one gun that's meant to be used as a connector for Earthrise Arcee to wear a Cog weapon pack.

That's a really strange thing to do, I guess someone forgot to take a picture of that and thought nobody would notice. They're clearly the exact same image copy and pasted on both sides and larger than they should be, the vehicle pic has them pegged in properly.
They really couldn't have come up with a better name than "Red Cog"? Feels lazy. I like the included weapons, though I don't know exactly what I'm going to do with all of them (Will pointed out what to do with one of them). At least he has a new head.
Not going to kill myself to get Dinobot and Terrorsaur, If they end up being hard to get then so be it.
Blackout is a must, though I still haven't opened Starscream and Ratchet yet...

I'm guessing after the photoshoot they saw the pictures and went "crap, we forgot to show the storage in robot mode!" then scrambled to photoshop them on there, hoping nobody would notice, lol.
Also new head? Looks like the same Cog head to me - I thought it'd be cool if they gave it a new head more resembling Cog's G1 toy than Cerebros's cartoon face.

Yes, Grimlock used the toy head while Dinobot originally used the animation head. And now Dinobot gets to have his toy head

I don't think you're wrong about Goldbug. Anyone expecting the Netflix mold should get ready for disappointment.
