==Quotes==
"Destroy this valley, and everything in it! The human race shall never have existed!"
:-- '''Megatron''', announcing the impending genocide of the proto-humans.

"The question that once haunted my being has been answered. The future is not fixed, and my choices are my own. And yet, how ironic - for I now find that I have no choice at all! I am a warrior... let the battle be joined."
:-- '''Dinobot''', realizing his destiny.

"One lonely turncoat, battling on against impossible odds. (Wiping fake tear) I'm almost touched... fortunately such moments pass quickly. Quickstrike, scrap him!"
:-- '''Megatron''', observing '''Dinobot''''s fight to save the valley single-handedly.

"What's a warrior without weapons, eh?" 
"A warrior ''still!''"
:-- '''Quickstrike''' goading '''Dinobot''' into a fight.

"Hmm, my ears are burning! Yesss! Why, Dinobot, what a delightful surprise! Let's see, where are we now? I have the Golden Disk. I have the power to change the future. And the only obstacle in my path to unimaginable glory... is ''yourself''. Exhausted. Damaged beyond recovery. ''Defeated''." 
"Not just yet!" 
"Uh-uh-uh!" 
(Megatron reveals a proto-human bound in energon bindings) 
"One more step and it's raining bits of early anthropoid, yesss. Oh dear, how positively ''Maximal'' of you. You were weakened before you started, Dinobot. Weakened by ''compassion''."
:-- '''Megatron''' confronting the severely damaged '''Dinobot'''.

"Oh, hohoho. Really, Dinobot? A stick, against a ''Transmetal''? I think ''not''." 
"Final Warning: Power failing. Jeopardy extreme. Repeat: Extreme." 
"Please. Face it, Dinobot. You're old technology. ''Obsolete''. What could ''you'', possibly ''do''?" 
"Improvise."
:-- '''Megatron''' arrogantly mocking '''Dinobot''' while the Maximal's computer warns him of his injuries.

"Well fought my friend. You saved the valley. You saved the lives of those who live here... and of those who are still to come."
:-- '''Optimus Primal'''

"Like I said, you're just a blasted slag-spouting saurian, but... its nice to know where you stand." 
"Upwind of you, for preference, vermin."
:-- '''Rattrap''' and '''Dinobot''' sharing one last banter.

"He lived a warrior... and died a hero. Let his spark join the Matrix. The greatest of Cybertron."
:-- '''Optimus Primal's''' eulogy to '''Dinobot'''.

==Notes==
===Technical/Animation Glitches===
* As Quickstrike approaches Dinobot, his left shin is backwards.
* At Dinobot's funeral, Rattrap is in his pre-Transmetal body.
* When Megatron is flying over the proto-human valley, his legs are missing and his body has very little detail.
