'''''Age of Extinction'' toys are here!'''

==Synopsis==
===Part 1===
[[Rattrap (BW)#Legends World|Rattrap]], [[Silverbolt (Fuzor)#Legends World|Silverbolt]], and [[Rhinox (BW)#Legends World|Rhinox]] get together to talk about the ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (franchise)|Age of Extinction]]'' [[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)|toys]] they got at the [[Transformers Celebration 2014]]. Silverbolt is first up with his [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#AOELeader|Leader Class Optimus Prime]], which he thinks is super cool, but to his annoyance, the other two crack jokes about its "[[kibble|backpack]]", commenting that it looks like he's a little kid going to school or that he's going to the mountains to cut grass (a reference to the Japanese folk tale [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momotar%C5%8D Momotarō]).

===Part 2===
Rhinox goes next, drooling over his [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#EvasionMode|Classic Optimus Prime]] and its truck mode's accuracy to the original Optimus. He only likes the vehicle mode, however, and gets extremely upset when Silverbolt transforms the toy into its movie-based robot mode and has it ride on [[Grimlock (AOE)|Grimlock]].

===Part 3===
Rattrap wants to talk about his [[Dinobot (AOE)|Dinobot]] toys, starting with Grimlock. On seeing his robot mode, Silverbolt wonders what the thing he's holding is supposed to be, and Rattrap figures it's a mechanical version of the stereotypical cartoon meat-on-a-bone. After Rhinox tells them it's a club, a surprised Rattrap jokes that [[Scorn]] also looks surprised in his packaging.

===Part 4===
Rattrap's [[Slug (AOE)|Slug]] also confuses Silverbolt with its weapons, as it looks like he's been skewered when his swords are attached in dinosaur mode. Rhinox jokes that he's about to be spit-roasted, and that when he's done, he'll be Grimlock's weapon. In the end, the three end up talking too much about food and grow really hungry, while [[Optimus Primal (BW)#Legends World|Optimus Primal]] wonders what the heck they're doing.

==Notes==
*Silverbolt refers to their business as "[[Ark (G1)|Ark]] Trading Company" instead of "[[Axalon (BW)|Axalon]]" for some reason.
*Rattrap pretends Grimlock is saying "daa", a reference to ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]]'' [[Grimlock (Animated)|Grimlock]]'s speech quirk in [[Transformers Animated (cartoon)#Japanese release|Japanese dub]] of the ''Animated'' [[Transformers Animated (cartoon)|cartoon]]. This speech pattern originated with the [[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)#International releases|Japanese dub]] of [[Dinobot (BW)|Dinobot]], and was carried over to Grimlock because they were both voiced by [[Keiji Fujiwara]].
