Awesome! more Dinobots is always a good thing... especially if they truly will have the Autobot symbol on them... maybe they'll be an RID update of the original dinobots... can't wait to see what the color scheme is.

Sounds good. It would be nice to own the dinobots for once. My cousin had them, so I never received any as a kid.

flashproto, you've done it again. Looks like they will be part of the Armada line. Pics are as followed:

grimlock seems to have the "robot on my chest and stomach" syndrome.

Well he is a repaint of BW Dinobot.

EDIT: another Dinobot has been found:

They should call Triceradon Slag, and they should call Sabreback Snarl. Then, they should get a brontosaurus to be Sludge.

in that case, bw dinobot has the "robot arms on my chest and stomache" syndrome.

My question is why would they have a prototype for a toy that they all ready have a mold for, unless they slightly remolded them.

maybe they're giving them mini-con-inducable (is that a real word?) abilities.

They wouldnt be part of the armada line but probably a subline of RID.

Except that they clearly come with those stickers that say armada on them . . .

The stickers are similar to Armada but it's Dinobots that's marked on them.
