Basically,dinobots never got a reissue.All those are KOs.I never owned a KO so i don't know much.

When they say reissue its a crappy KO.

You have to watch it though as the KO's seem to have officail looking boxes.

The KO's seem to be a lsighty different color plastic to real ones. so Have a good look before you commit to getting them.

What are those about? Are they just little statues or little transformers or what? I've never seen one so I don't have a clue. :?

World smallest tfs are remakes of the G1 line by Takara and are close to the size of a micromaster.Dinobots are a bit bigger and released by another company.

Those are so cute!

Are they still making them or should I look elsewhere?

Is there a Swoop? I love Swoop! I am so in awe of all of the Transofrmers toys these companies are releasing! I don't see how they could make something like that so small and they still work!

You should be able to get them. BBTS maybe? They are $15, but Swoop is more because he has all the rocket launchers.

Swoop and Sludge just got made.

I love the G1/G2 Dinobots! I loved them so much I went and purchased the three G2 Dinobots, Grimlock, Snarl and Slag. Then I bought another G1 Sludge and Swoop, repainted them in G2 colors and I now have a one of a kind, G2 Decepticon Clone Dinobots! Very cool! Here's some group pictures them facing off:
