Which 3rd Party Dinobots are you collecting?

With all the 3rd party non-dinobots out there, I am losing track and would like some clarity. Which series/manufacturer are people preferring if you want to complete the group? And what are the major differences between the different lines? If one wants to "mix and match", which lines go well together?

- Fansproject Lost Exo Realm
- Planet X
- Toyworld
- FansToys
- GCreation
- GigaPower

That's all I can think of at the moment. Probably missed a bunch.

Re: Which 3rd Party Dinobots are you collecting?

This is a loaded question. There is mich debate in the fandom. To me, none are equivalent. They all are different in their own way. Just buy what you think fits best in your collection.

I am collecting FT because I like the scale and the quality of Scoria and Soar. Although Soar should have been taller Bottom line, FT Dibots have a G1 aesthetic which is really what I'm after.

Check these threads for more info.

Re: Which 3rd Party Dinobots are you collecting?

I really liked Toyworld Roar, but having seen the rest of the offerings in the line, I'm feeling a bit more on the fence about them.

Re: Which 3rd Party Dinobots are you collecting?

I collect my Dinobots the way I collect all my figures:
- FansToys
- MMC
- FansProject

Everything else is inferior. I own KFC, iGear, Hasbro and Takara. All junk.

IMO the biggest difference is scale, voyager class size and MP class size.

Gigapowers. Has the look and feel of G1 that I like and according to the video reviews no floppy legs.

I'm all over the fansproject dinobots and was going to pick up the toyworld but after seeing their swoop I may just grab the Grimlock and maybe slag.

Re: Which 3rd Party Dinobots are you collecting?

I have consistently been collecting the FansProject group. But I have Slag from FT and planning on getting the GCreations group (can't resist a combiner dinobot). Also, may grab whichever Grimlock looks good from the other companies.
