Yeah, I missed out on the 2010 all-plastic release, so the Legacy version is a nice new mold to me.
It's not quite that much smaller than I expected it to be, and the proportions in combined mode are actually a little nicer. It loses the super-fat blocky look from the original for a wider-stanced slimmer pose.
That being said, I do feel the die-cast parts are odd (Mastodon/elbows, and T-Rex/thighs). I was originally hoping that most of the Sabertooth Tiger + Triceratops would be die-cast so that it would have the base-weight like most die-cast action figures would have.
The overall conclusion is that if you have access to the vintage one, go for it instead. But the 2010/Legacy version is an acceptable substitute if you're ok with the (current) lack of a compatible Dragonzord and Titanus.
