Luckily I haven't really had any issues with the chest on my Swoop yet, but after Crankcase and Sandstorm, I think I can deal with whatever might come up lol Feels good to know that I'll never have to buy new Dinbots again
I like the Obitsu action figure stands. Although, I just did a quick search, and it looks like people are having a hard time finding them right now. The Bandai Tamashii Stage 5 stands are good too.
@@DennisMoultonAKAGotBot yes, the Obitsu and Bandai has 3mm and 5mm pegs. 3mm seems to be the standard, and most of our Transformers have a little 3mm hole in... Well, where you would expect to find a hole, the hinder region.
Nice review! I am not really interested to spent $200 worth of dinobots to make a collection of dinobots. And I’ve missed out on them. Because I don’t want a shelve of dinobots. I can’t wait for ur review of the Cliffjumper bully set! Anyway, this looks like a good figure
im done with the dinobots now grate review buddy . i filed the tab thjat interfears with the dino neck shorter slightly to try to make it work better it helped some . using that and squezing like you show seems to do the trick
@@DennisMoultonAKAGotBot I agree. Five individual years. Grimlock: 2020 Slag: 2021 Sludge: 2022 Snarl: 2023 Swoop: 2024 This was to long a time for all five Dinobots.
Yeah, I painted my Snarl's yellow bits metallic gold, but that didn't look right. You spray metallic gold, then transparent yellow (with a slight orange tint). That worked.
I was waiting for this review. Nice. My copy will arrive within a month from Amazon and finally complete my SS86 Dinobots. They all look good together on the review. Great review as always.
I do love Swoop and its great to finally have all 5. However he is a little under engineered. They could have done a little more with the arms. They also could have had a cover for the fist hole. Some slightly better dino mode feet could have been good. But the arms are its biggest flaw. Especially having to tab them into the wings make it so you can't pose the wings as much without the arms just hanging there. Snarl is still my favorite of the 5 by far.
Pretty sure it is animation accurate but yes, I can appreciate where you are coming from and there are a few things they should have done to maximize leader value.
Dennis, this is what I learned from my favorite book character's grandpa said in book 2 (geronimo stilton and the cheese pyramids) and what I said days ago End this extravagance immediately! Cut back all expenses! On your toes! Things are about to change No more spending Oh, what a mess you have made of things Mend your ways, or I'm taking back the firm I feel sick when I hear such things ZERO ZILCH NO SPENDING ECONIMIZE ON EVERYTHING!
@DennisMoultonAKAGotBot besides the left shoulder, the right thigh is a little loose on mine, but it's fine, it's glorious, you were right my Canadian friend!!! also, we're seeing Transformers one tonight, so the Toy Gods are shining down!💥💥💥
I love this figure. My only problem is that they forgot to paint his left eye in the dino mode. I guess I'll either paint it (both really, to insure color matching) or go Toyhax. I shouldn't have to do that for a $55 US toy, but it is what it is.
I am jealous I am waiting for my preorder should be coming soon (i hope). I paid less for swoop then the other Dinobots, for me it was a cheaper leader, leader here goes from 60-90 euros (tax included). this one was 60 the other dinobots if I remember correctly where 70 euros and Grimlock I believe was 75 euros. This is including tax about 23%
On my ss86 swoop I did the push of chest together harder and it never pop off unless I want it to pop of. It need more force than the right side of the shoulder
It does and I think the reason it never worked right the day i of filming was because of the humidity. The little squeeze fix has worked just fine since
you know what would be an interesting top 10? The worst things Optimus Prime has ever done. He is not a saint. Considering he doomed cybertron in the netflix show and brought the war to earth as well as how bloodthirsty he is in the movies (Megs wanted to form a truce in DOTM which in retrospect he should’ve accepted).

and these fit with Transformers?
@@DennisMoultonAKAGotBot yes, the Obitsu and Bandai has 3mm and 5mm pegs. 3mm seems to be the standard, and most of our Transformers have a little 3mm hole in... Well, where you would expect to find a hole, the hinder region.
Great review as always dennis, all pre orders in UK are sold out .Still hoping that swoop comes out in the shops
Good luck. I hope he's easy.

Cliffjumper bully?
@@DennisMoultonAKAGotBotyeah, the set is made up of mostly Decepticons
Swoop is great. It felt sooo good to complete the team. Something very satisfying about rounding out the sub-groups.
He is, coulda added a few little things for Leader value but glad to have finished the last set of Dinobots I'll ever need.
im done with the dinobots now grate review buddy . i filed the tab thjat interfears with the dino neck shorter slightly to try to make it work better it helped some . using that and squezing like you show seems to do the trick
I think humidity kept it from working in filming day. zit has helped since though.
G1 dinobots are done! Time for Age of Extinction!
I tap out there.
great group shot of the boys
Right? Talk a solid set.
@@DennisMoultonAKAGotBot yep cant wait till i get my swoop
Finally Swoop has been able to swoop down and complete the SS86 Dinobots team!! :D
Took long enough lol.
@@DennisMoultonAKAGotBot I agree. Five individual years.
Grimlock: 2020
Slag: 2021
Sludge: 2022
Snarl: 2023
Swoop: 2024

That's a lot. I wouldn't trust me to spray anything with anything. I'd just hunt for a matching gold. Shouldn't have to.
@@DennisMoultonAKAGotBot 😂 Could NOT find a paint that matched at all. That was the only way I got it close. 😂
I was waiting for this review. Nice. My copy will arrive within a month from Amazon and finally complete my SS86 Dinobots.
They all look good together on the review.
Great review as always.
They do.. Enjoy. Despite the humidity ruining my little chest fix thingy, I did it the next day and it worked again.
@@DennisMoultonAKAGotBot
Glad you got it fixed. I'll keep it in mind when my copy arrives.
@albert09 It helped me a bit.
He looks epic and they are epic together! Loved getting all these guys
Same.

My pre-order should be in this week! STOKED
Enjoy. It feels great in hand.
Great video as always Dennis. That's my last one. All my G1 needs are over. YES. Running out of display room.
I feel that.
Cant wait to find this bot and add him to the team, great review!
Very good and the chest fix does work. Humidity caused my problems at the end
Dennis, this is what I learned from my favorite book character's grandpa said in book 2 (geronimo stilton and the cheese pyramids) and what I said days ago
End this extravagance immediately!
Cut back all expenses!
On your toes! Things are about to change
No more spending
Oh, what a mess you have made of things
Mend your ways, or I'm taking back the firm
I feel sick when I hear such things
ZERO ZILCH NO SPENDING
ECONIMIZE ON EVERYTHING!
Okay, and why are you quoting all of that?
@DennisMoultonAKAGotBot to save cash, I mean. the character is beyond cheaper than Mr. krabs
Just arrived! 🎉🎉🎉He's glorious!
Right? By the by, the chest trick DOES work to help solidity but the humidity when I was filming, screwed it up.

That's a bummer but not a deal breaker. You're absolutely right though.
Yeah, it could be worse. Fortunately, I've got nice friction in the chest joints.
So, we're getting the blue g2 grimlock in the main generations line next year I believe I wonder if we will be getting all 5 in g2 colors.
Who knows? Anything is possible.

That's a great price. I see your taxes are also BS like here lol. 23 is brutal.
