The box looks kinda cool.



The Packaging

The legs come pre-attached which saves you some time.

You might as well see Krayts review (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=24442)as its the exact same toy!



I think Tets is going to do a proper review of this figure (he has already done some comic translations) (https://tetstoys.blogspot.com.au/2017/08/lg43-dinozaurer-trypticon-web-comic.html)and do it justice but after finding how similar it is to the Titans Return version I honestly cant be bothered.

Well...umm it definately has a nicer box! Great box review Trev!

By the way think you've got one too many 0s on that rrp.

I hope you're not too let down Trev by ending up with two identical toys. I know from personal experience it feels terrible when that happens.:(

Well, being no different is a tad disappointing, buuut nevertheless, I really like mine. I'm particularly impressed with Fulltilt and his tumbler mode. Overall I think the toy blends well together. He makes a good base, a reasonably convincing spaceship and a scary robot dinosaur.

It's interesting to compare it with Fortress Maximus, who has a great robot mode. Faithful (admittedly lazy) spaceship mode and lazy base mode.

Overall I recommend getting Trypticon/Dinazauerer, obviously it doesn't have to be TTs release as such, juts which ever is easiest for you to get your hands o.
