A google image search for 'saboton', and another for 'elf shoe' tells me that they are elf shoes. :p

Well, I can't argue with Google, so... :P

Seriously though, the AOE Dinobots have a pretty clear medieval knight theme. As I've said before, part of that is the inclusion of the stylised sabotons that some fans choose to refer to as elf shoes. However, the only AOE toy that really has elf shoes is my old avatar, OSC Grimlock.

I think I'm like the only one who actually kinda likes these...

i kinda agree, i like the retro aspect but i think the movie designs are just so way out that it looks weird, they just clash or something.

I regret getting the SDCC + Amazon Sludge now. Can't believe these guys have awesome head sculpts :( I don't want to be buying a 3rd set of Dinobots. Bleh...

There is a Generations/G1 styled Cliffjumper - from the Classics line. Came out a fair few years ago. There is also the WFC Generations Cliffjumper and I picked up a little Universe Cliffjumper just this week. So that's at least 3 CHUG ones out there for you to grab :)

Of course, it would be great to get a Masterpiece version to go with MP Tracks and Wheeljack too :)

This would of been awesome :D As I'd much prefer these heads on my current SDCC set. Seeming as how Snarl has gold on him etc, looks better than these ones :D
