Does the PCON on the Dinoking listing imply he'll be a Pulsecon thing? Online exclusive of some sort

Looks a bit pump and no shells. I'll pass.

That looks like a fun set! I prefer it to the Dinobot versions.

It looks...as good as a Dinoking made out of those toys was ever going to look. Two or three years ago this would probably have tempted me. Now it kind of just feels like another nostalgia piece amongst so many and it doesn't capture my interest anywhere near the way something like Filch or Jawbreaker does.

I'd be interested... but guessing impossible to get without being at the convention?

It's for Pulsecon, coming later in the year though Pulse. So, probably impossible to get unless you use Phil's membership to bag one before non-members are allowed at it.

Obviously the toy looks naff, but that box and those colours..!

This is what I'd been waiting for! (The Dinoking, that is.) Once again my patience pays off. Now I just have to be a little bit more patient. But I will be having that, because it looks great. Disappointing that there are no shells, of course, but there was never going to be - and that would have at least doubled the price.
Now, odds on this being repurposed again as Monstructor..?

For the Legacy Evolution Combining Dinobots these are made from see tmukhub.proboards.com/thread/11820/legacy-evolution-core-combining-dinobotsRairyi (Sludge) has new back legs, presumably to take the pegs of the foot weapons: you can see the slots on the knees of Dinoking's combined mode Yokuryu (Swoop) & Gairyu (Scarr) have new weapons that form the hands Most of the individual robot heads are changed, is Yokuryu (Swoop) the same? Others all have new weapons and Dinoking has a new head

I've seen a picture elsewhere that confirms that Yokuryu does indeed have a different head - although they are very similar.

GPS ALERT.
I am disturbed by the increasing return of gold plastic. Have toy companies learned nothing??

I would like the box if the windows were covered. Open windows are a magnet for dust. -Ralph

But there's no swirl or metallic element to that plastic which are the things that frequently make them vulnerable. * SOMEWHERE I have a who is who and what table I must dig out and update. Aiming to do some comparisons but I'm having difficulty sourcing the precise photos I want or at least In was at 2am :-(

Grimlock vs Goryu Scarr vs Gairyu Slag vs Kakuryu Snarl vs Doryu Swoop vs Yokuryu Sludge vs Rairyu Volcanicus vs Dinoking

Take the Dinobot baggage off these toys, and I like it so much more.
The extra feet and weapons certainly help!

It's Pulse's exclusive, so it's more when (13th September) than IF

I just think it looks a bit...pish. I'll pass.
