Finally got my Dinobots after 33 years!

When I was a kid, I received Grimlock for Christmas 85/86 (don't recall which, but it was around that time). My parents were (understandably) frugal, so I didn't get the rest of the team. And now, thanks to PotP, I have the whole team! Moments like this make TF collecting fun

Re-living your childhood=priceless!

I like the vintagey filter. Gives it a more 80s nostalgia feel lol

That photo does look super vintage, congrats!

A lot of us have the same feeling now as adults I think. My Brother & I had Snarl & Swoop, they were awesome. The one’s today are so much better.

Like most have said, they look way better not combined into that giant weird Dinobot.

I know how you feel. I felt the same way after getting all the DX9 Dinobots...

I never got the original for the same reasons. So this faithful interpretation has been great. And a chance to share with the kids and rewatch the g1 cartoons.

Nice! That really takes me back to my childhood! Growing up I loved all things Dinosaurs and Transformers.
So when the Dinobots came out I just had to have em! Thanks for reminding us why we still collect today=
