It's out at a few Toyworld's. Might be hard to get hold of because some of the bigger chains appear to be dropping the PCC line...?


I picked this set up (along with the Constructicon set) for my 2 boys on Friday and yes, it's definitely the strongest PCC set so far (or at least on a par with the also strong Constructicon set). If Hasbro can keep knocking out sets like these 2, there might be hope for the line yet.

The only qualm I have is with the QC on these things, one of Grimstone's legs is loose which affects the stability of the combined mode, and one of the Constructicon leg drones doesn't want to stay attached at all - a common problem with this line. The spring-loaded autmorph drones tends to work against the joint, so if it's not perfect it won't work.

The Dinobot colour scheme is nice, and the unified look also makes this set look like a team compared to the random multicoloured limbs in the other sets.

The individual Dinobots' faces and limbs, let them look like they are their own beings rather than the 'remote control car/plane' feel I get from the other sets' drones.

It's also an interesting mix of dinosaurs used for the limbs.

That aint no Spinosaur, hell it aint even a dinosaur! Silly hasbro.

But then again the dinobots aren't picky about a non-saurian member
