Fans are guessing it'll be a redeco of the latest mold of Beast Wars Megatron (to look more like Rexy in Beast mode)


But there's a chance it might be a totally new mold.

I think it was already comfirmed (quite long time ago) by leakers on TF Forums that it's gonna be repaint of Kingdom BW Megatron into Rexy.
EDIT: Apperently there was also leaked information about Jeep from the first movie using Siege Hound mould.

The irony is of course that this idea never occured to Hasbro when they still had the Jurassic Park license. Shows how little they cared about it.
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

avatar_DragonRider02 @DragonRider02 , Yeah, saw those posts too. I wrote "fans are guessing" instead of "confirmed by leakers" - force of habit from my movies posts. I just take leaks with a grain of salt.

I hope they at least give her a different 'bot head. It'd be weird if the smug Megatron head was retained.

Up for pre-order now on Amazon.

Looks great and not something I'd expect to see like ever.

That T.Rex mode looks surprisingly good. I wish they remolded dino mode's head to look more like JP Rex instead of WWD Rex it's clearly based on. But I expected that Hasbro wont bother with such 'small' detail  :P I also wish they came with something more creative for robot mode head instead of being basically just... stylised Grimlock's head  :P
Ford Explorer bot also looks pretty cool. His head resembling Alan Grant's hat (I think?) is kinda silly but I apprieciate the reference!

Also, as I expected, this is a full set, not two separate realeses. Knowing that I expected the price to be around Commander Class figure pricepoint (Leader + Deluxe + 'bonus' for just being an exclusive).
But InDemandToys has this listed for almost 120£! (around 167$)
After converting £ to my local currency it's... almost 630PLN!! This is insane price for just bunch of retooled mainlines! It's much more than what I would have to pay for regular Leader and Deluxe at retail (and TF toys are awfully overpriced over here). It's even more than what I would have to pay for other Leader/Deluxe exclusives, like Gen Selects! It's more than some of the high-end Masterpiece-scale and quality 3rd Party offerings! I paid less for my Unique Toys Dragoon!!

I feel baffled with that price. It's first time I was interested in one of those Transformers crossovers, it looks cool, but I just can't justify paying this much for pair of retooled mainlines. 170$ is excatly maximum amount of money I am willing to spend on some fancy 3rd party Masterpice-scaled figure if something really, REALLY impresses me. But no single retool/repaint of Hasbro mainline is worth that much.
