TFWiki's Dinoking picture, above, has the arms combined the other way round! Yeah, that Dinoking is combined wrong. Blue on the right, green on the left. The combination they've gone with is the Monstructor toy instructions config. Here is the correct form, from Brr-Icy's blog:

The head could have done with being cast on a different parts frame so the eye doesn't pull towards the blue/yellow.

Where's Shockprowl? I want to know how he feels about this brave new world he's entering in to.... Wondering if I should get all the repaints/remoulds out the way before we go full on radio rental new moulds.

Yes.
Except when they're Scramble City / Special Teams, in which case there isn't, as has been proven.

Not just proven, but is the essence of them. I don't understand why Ralph denies them the fulfillment of their nature. It is a most cruel thing to do.

How can you ignore THE SPECIAL TEAMS??? It is you who are ignoring/denying their interchangeability power! You shackle them and refuse to allow them to fulfil in your mind their Special potential! Martin

So, there's a tiny little monster-former combiner, AND HE HAS A REPAINT ALREADY?!? Not a repaint, two different versions both released in 1989 - one in Japan (Dinoforce), the other in the west (Pretender Monsters). Martin

Well it's got to he Dinoforce then, far more visually appealing. EDIT: The same toy released in two countries at the same time painted differently has got to be unique, surely?

We've already had the Japanese versions of Nightbeat, Siren, the Sparkabots, Firecons, etc. All released at the same time as their differently coloured western counterparts. Martin

I imagine that when times are hard and Transformers is no longer as popular, our all lines will consist of Starscream moulds for Decepticons and Bluestreak moulds for Autobots.

Well, it’s currently neck and neck between those Hubbers who are colour-blind, and those who have voted for Dinoking.

Thought for the day. If the Predacons and Dinoforce combine into Predaking and Dinoking, then what say you to Constructiking, Stuntiking, Combatiking, Terrorking, Seaking and Pretendermonsterking?

Text from soundwavesoblivion.com:
| Strength | Intelligence | Speed | Endurance | Rank | Courage | Firepower | Skill | Doryu | 6 | 4 | 4 | 6 | 6 | 5 | 5 | 5 | Gairyu | 5 | 4 | 7 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 4 | Goryu | 7 | 4 | 6 | 6 | 7 | 6 | 7 | 5 | Kakuryu | 6 | 4 | 3 | 6 | 6 | 4 | 5 | 5 | Rairyu | 8 | 5 | 5 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 5 | 4 | Yokuryu | 4 | 4 | 8 | 4 | 6 | 5 | 7 | 5 | Dinoking | 9 | 7 | 7 | 9 | 7 | 9 | 9 | 8 |
Rairyu the Apatosaurus is the strongest (followed by Goryu the Tyrannosaurus). Rairyu is also the most intelligent. Yokuryu the Pteranodon is the fastest, but the weakest and least tough. Gairyu the Ankylosaurus the the second-fastest, and the toughest. Conforming to stereotype, the Tyrannosaurus Goryu is leader. There is no second-in-command. Kakuryu the Triceratops is the slowest and least brave. In the cartoon series, he is portrayed as the silliest and most foolish member of the team. But in the west, he is Slog - the most intelligent and highest-ranked Pretender Monster! (In the Grand Moff Martinverse, Slog remains leader even when the Pretender Monsters adopt their dinosaur shells.) Goryu and Yokuryu have the greatest firepower, Gairyu the least. They all have intelligence and skill 4 or 5... but the mighty Dinoking has intelligence 7 and skill 8! In combiner teams, the leader position is usually the torso (Slog forms Monstructor's torso), but in the case of the Constructicons and Dinoforce, the leaders (Scrapper and Goryu) form the left leg. The left leg is thus also a leader position for Transformers! Martin

My vote goes to Gairyu simply for being a dinosaur that hasn't been done previously in Transformers.
