*'''Dinobot''' (Deluxe, [[1996]]/[[1997]])
**''Takara ID number:'' '''C-4'''
**''Accessories:'' [[Cyber-slash tail weapon|"Cyber-slash" tail weapon]], sword

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' product, Dinobot transforms into what his bio claims is a "vicious ''[[Popular beast alternate modes|Velociraptor]]''". His tail detaches and separates to form a gear-powered, spinning blade weapon, while the central "tail bone" separates to be used as a sword. The entire assembly can store in [[robot mode]] by flipping down the tail-mount and pegging the blade's base to the peg on his lower back. Like all early Deluxe-and-up ''Beast Wars'' toys, he has a "mutant mask", halves of a dino-skull that flip up to cover his more robotic head. Thankfully these pieces are not pinned in, and can be easily removed for better clearance and show-accuracy.

:The original Dinobots shipped on cards with "rocky"-shaped bubbles. Later (and more numerous) assortments moved to a smooth, rounded bubble, leading the first packaging type to become sought-after collectibles on the secondary market. The second packaging variant also saw a slight difference in the toy's tooling, leaving a blank square cut out of his abdomen mold for a [[rubsign]] in preparation for [[Grimlock (G1)/toys#Beast Wars|his 1997 repaint]].

:Takara's initial release of the toy was identical to the [[Hasbro]] version (save packaging, of course). In January 1998, Takara [[redeco]]ed many of the ''Beast Wars'' toys and re-released them in slightly more show-like tones; Dinobot's distressingly pinkish skin was changed to tan, his orange robot eyes became red, his flat blue face became metallic blue, his orange dinosaur eyes became white, and his helmet was painted in metallic gold. This version also features the blank square for a rubsign.

*'''Dinobot''' (Happy Meal Transmetal, 1998)
**''McNumber'': '''6'''

:Part of the second [[McDonald's]] ''Beast Wars'' Happy Meal promotion, [[Transmetal]] Dinobot transforms into a robotic ''Velociraptor''. To tie in with the chrome plastic [[gimmick]] of the retail Transmetal toys, parts of his [[beast mode]] are cast in glittery metallic plastic. Like the other McDonald's toys from this assortment, he shares nothing in common with his previous body other than [[alternate mode]] choice. 

:This toy was later [[repurposing|repurposed]] by [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars Sourcebook|Beast Wars Sourcebook]]'' to represent an [[Dinobot (Transmetal)|initial prototype]] of Dinobot's evil clone, [[Dinobot II]].

*'''Dinobot''' (Fox Kids Deluxe, [[1999]])
**''Accessories:'' sword, "Cyber-slash" tail weapon

:Part of the first wave of "[[Fox Kids]]" redecoes (so called because of the callout on the package to the Fox Kids programming block where the cartoon had recently moved), this version of Dinobot is more dark brown than the original, with red stripes instead of the original's brown, with a red robot mode face and green eyes. This toy uses the [[retool]]ed mold with the shoulder ratchets and the (unused) "[[rubsign|energon chip]]" space that were created for ''Beast Wars'' [[Grimlock (G1)/toys#Beast Wars|Grimlock]].

:Hasbro solicitations named this toy "Live Wire Dinobot",<ref>https://groups.google.com/d/msg/alt.toys.transformers/C30fV9dqOK0/gPO8D3N_PAUJ</ref> but the name never made it to final packaging.

===''Beast Wars 10th Anniversary''===
[[File:BW10Dinobot toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|He disagrees with everything that ''T. rex'' says, but you know they're best friends.]]
*'''Dinobot''' (Beast Wars 10th Anniversary, [[2006]])
**''Accessories:'' "Energo-drill" sword, spinning blade tail weapon, Transmutate left arm

:This release is yet another redeco of the original Dinobot toy. Though the ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars 10th Anniversary|Beast Wars 10th Anniversary]]'' line's aim was "[[show-accuracy]]", the resulting Dinobot toy confused some fans, with its dark brown base color, odd placement of blue, and, mostly, the metallic green on his bone-like decorations. Like the other ''10th Anniversary'' toys, he has a faction symbol tampoed on his body; in Dinobot's case, there's a Maximal logo on the left side of his robot chest. Like Fox Kids! Dinobot, this toy has the Energon Chip indent and shoulder ratchets that were added for ''Beast Wars'' Grimlock.

:''Beast Wars 10th Anniversary'' Dinobot came with the left arm to the "build-a-bot" figure [[Transmutate (BW)|Transmutate]], plus a DVD containing the obvious Dinobot-themed episode, "[[Code of Hero]]".

:Unfortunately, Dinobot is ''highly'' susceptible to [[Gold Plastic Syndrome]]. Just about any part of this Dinobot is made of metallic plastics that collectively hit their expiration dates around [[2013]], making him highly fragile. The neck, helmet halves, shoulder swivels, and hip joints are usually the first to snap.

===''Timelines''===
[[File:Botcon2006Dinobot toy.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Can you dig it?]]
*'''Dawn of Future's Past''' (Multi-pack Deluxe, 2006)
**''Accessories:'' Golden Disk Key

:Part of the five-toy [[BotCon 2006]] [[exclusive]] boxed set (along with [[Cheetor (BW)/toys|Cheetor]], [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys|Optimus Primal]], [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattrap]], and [[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]]), ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' "Darksyde Dinobot" is a redeco of the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]'' [[Longrack (Cybertron)|Longrack]] mold, itself a [[retool]] of ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' [[Smokescreen (Armada)#Hoist|Hoist]]. Dinobot uses almost all of Longrack's new-mold parts save for the head; Hoist's was a dead ringer for Dinobot in the first place. He transforms into a Cybertronic excavator. Inserting a [[Cyber Key]] or [[Cyber Key|Golden Disk Key]] into his shoulder assembly unlocks a shovel-punch attack activated by pressing on the plunger mechanism above the key port. Like Longrack, he does ''not'' come with a [[Mini-Con]] partner. The color scheme is partially based on his ''10th Anniversary'' toy.

:The original version of this mold was also used to make ''[[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|Universe]]'' [[Ransack (Universe 2003)|Ransack]].

===''Beast Wars Telemocha Series''===
[[File:Japanese10thDinobot.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|At last, I CAN TALK!]]
*'''Dinobot''' (Deluxe, 2006)
**''ID number:'' '''TM-05'''
**''Accessories:'' Dino Sabel, Cyber Shield

:Celebrating Japan's 10th anniversary of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' (one year later than the West), the ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars Telemocha Series|Beast Wars Telemocha]]'' version of Dinobot is yet another (and final?) redeco of the venerable tooling, including the shoulder ratcheting added to the previous Hasbro versions. While definitely more [[Show-accuracy|accurate to the CGI model]] than the Hasbro [[Transformers: Beast Wars 10th Anniversary|10th Anniversary]] version from the previous year, most of its color-scheme decisions favor the robot mode, such as bronze/gold shoulder joints. The result of this is a less consistently colored beast mode than the Hasbro version. It is the first (and only) version of the mold to place deco on the "mutant mask" halves.

:Though there are some colors dropped between the transition from CGI model to toy, Telemocha Dinobot does currently hold the prize for the sheer number of paint applications used on this mold, and by a large margin. Perhaps most significant to many fans, however, is that this version of Dinobot has a mouth, if only in the form of a paint operation.

:This release of Dinobot came with a DVD containing the ''Beast Wars'' episode... "New Weapons of Terror!", the Japanese dub of "[[The Probe]]" and not "Code of Hero".

[[File:Dinobotuniversedeluxe.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Just in time for the original mold to be practically cheese by now.]]
*'''Dinobot''' (Deluxe, [[2009]])
**''Accessories:'' Tail/missile launcher, missile/sword

:''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' Dinobot transforms into a brown and amber ''Jurassic Park''-style ''Velociraptor'' with a robot mode styled heavily after the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]'' CGI model, including a face with a nose and mouth. His transformation has been altered to produce more human-like proportions, with his robot legs now becoming the raptor legs and the arms hiding mostly inside the torso. He also sports a fully show accurate robot head which can be raised to a 45 degree angle as well as turn. On his chest is a panel that can swap between a Maximal symbol, a Predacon symbol and a blank third panel (for the beast mode head). His [[Show-accuracy|show-accurate]] double opposable thumbs can be swapped out for "proper" fists. His tail still detaches and splits to become a weapon, but no longer rotates. Instead, it fires a missile shaped like his sword from the cartoon, which can be held as a sword by either the regular fist or claw hands. The tail can also clip onto his back for storage. 

:This toy was also later [[repurposing|repurposed]] as ''Beast Wars Shattered Glass'' [[Dinobot (BWSG)|Dinobot]].

**''ID number:'' '''C-16'''
**''Accessories:'' Tail/missile launcher, missile/sword

:The ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' release of Dinobot is in more traditional colors than the Hasbro version, decoed in brown with several tan stripes, plus blue and golden detailing. Clear red plastic replaces the clear orange found on the ''Universe'' version. Like all ''Henkei! Henkei!'' releases he features [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum metallized]] parts, particularly his missile/sword.

:Dinobot would have transformed from a working USB laser mouse into a brown and gold mechanoid raptor, but an early [[BigBadToyStore]] solicitation for him was almost immediately supplanted by a solicitation for "[[Trypticon (G1)#Device Label|Dinosaurer]]" (Trypticon), once better information was had.

* '''Dinobot (Beast Wars)''' ([[2018]]-[[July 28|07-28]])
**''ID number:'' '''MP-41'''
**''Accessories:'' [[Cyber-slash tail weapon|Cyber Shield]], Dino Sabel<!--This is a non-English word, not a misspelling.-->, 4 robot faces, beam effect, [[Golden Disk (Voyager)|Golden Disk]], disk stand, disk adapter, base adapter (beast mode), base adapter (robot mode), base A, base B, base arm

: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Dinobot transforms from a show-accurate ''Velociraptor'' to a show-accurate robot. It scales correctly with the other ''Masterpiece Beast Wars'' figures. Unlike Primal or Cheetor, Dinobot features printed details and a coat of chip-resistant paint, making him a lot more durable.

: Dinobot also comes with many accessories: first, his two trademark weapons—his tail weapon with working spinning gimmick and the [[Golden Disk (Voyager)|Golden Disk]].  The Disk is fully detailed, complete with the "The Sounds of Earth" label sculpted on it. Dinobot also comes with 4 different faces for the robot (serious, smirking, smiling and growling); the latter one has clear eyes that can glow via a LED inside his head; a switch will allow the eyes to light up both in red and green. To complement the latter option, the figure also comes with an extra piece that represents Dinobot's eye beams. The light-up feature is fueled by two LR44 batteries (not included). The raptor head can also emote, but needs no extra pieces: a panel on top of the head can be flipped to replace the regular eyes with a second, narrower pair. A final accessory, a stand is formed by a 2-piece base that can be united in multiple directions, the regular arm and 3 extra attachments: one is to hook the Golden Disk onto the base, one is for Dinobot's robot mode and the last one is a cradle to place Dinobot's raptor mode on the stand. Much like the new ''Masterpiece Movie Series'' figures, Dinobot's robot mode mouth can open and close.

: Due to a [[design flaw]] on the initial release, moving Dinobot's robot shoulders through their normal outward range of motion carries a risk of breaking off a small ridge inside the ratchet joint due to an overly strong spring.  Lubricating the joints with grease or dish soap can prevent the issue, and it was rectified on later releases with a weaker spring and slightly thicker ridge within the ratchet.  

: Some Dinobot figures drain the battery power unusually fast, with some owners reporting that batteries died less than two days after installation and with minimal use.

:Released to commemorate the 25th anniversary of ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'', ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom]]'' Dinobot is a Voyager Class-sized mold that transforms from a cartoon-accurate robot into a ''[[Jurassic Park]]''-accurate ''Velociraptor'' in 28 steps.  His hands have a [[5 mm post|5 mm port]] that can hold both his weapons and can close to hold objects (for example: the Golden Disks associated with the [[Ark (G1)#War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Titan Class Ark]]).  He also has 5mm ports under his heels and one under his back-[[kibble]].  His tail can detach and split into two components: his Cyber Slash tail weapon, and his signature sword.  The sword's tip is molded with the same texture as Dinobot's skin, presumably to better blend in as the tail tip in beast mode. Due to the Cyber Slash weapon connection, the sword cannot be held by other Transformers toys with traditional 5mm port hands. The Cyber Slash weapon can store in robot mode by attaching to the same port as beast mode.  ''Kingdom'' Dinobot's toy is labeled as a Predacon in this line.  Much like most of the toyline, Dinobot comes with one of four possible holographic [[Golden Disk (Voyager)|Golden Disk]] cards for his wave, which reveals a [[Source:Golden Disk destinies|possible destiny]] of a key character, Dinobot being one of them.  

:The toy was announced using photos of the actual toy with no alterations, while his packaging's [[:File:Kingdomtoy-Dinobotpackaging.jpg|stock renders]] feature some different colors and are missing some transformation seamlines.

:The faux-head flaps used for the chest in Dinobot's robot mode are prone to developing stress marks due to the thinness of the plastic and stiff swivel they're mounted on. It's advised to handle these flaps at the base of the swivel mount rather than pulling on the ends to avoid these stress marks or potentially breaking the flaps.

:Dinobot was later retooled as ''Kingdom'' [[Grimlock (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Maximal Grimlock]].

==Notes==
[[File:BWRConcept04.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Dinobot's control art. The beast head displays a more rigid grill structure.]]
*Dinobot's original toy was designed to supplant a failed lion Transformer counterpart to Cheetor that ended up being, understandably, too similar to Cheetor. A dinosaur's entry into the Maximals was justified by pointing out that the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]] had been good guys in Generation 1.<ref>[http://obscuretf.com/hhk/BC04interviews.html Botcon 2004 Interview with Vinnie D'Alleva], p1-2</ref>
[[File:Dinobottoycommercial.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|An abandoned deco?]]
*In the first ''Beast Wars'' toy commercials, Dinobot had a slightly different deco than the final toy. He was browner, rather than pinker, and had thicker stripes.
*Some fans are inclined to yank off Dinobot's mutant mask pieces, since he doesn't have them on the television show, they get in the way during transformation, and they're easily removable. Ten years later, Hasbro thought so, too, in their stock photography for ''[[Transformers: Beast Wars 10th Anniversary|Beast Wars 10th Anniversary]]'' Dinobot.
[[File:TMDinobotConcept.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Raptor and... squatting Raptor? It's a jet powered squat, surely.]]
*An actual (i.e. non-McDonald's affiliated) Transmetal Dinobot apparently made it to concept art stages, but not much further. Several elements of the design were recycled for Transmetal [[Terrorsaur (BW)|Terrorsaur]].
*Dinobot's toy curiously has six toes on each foot. Since his legs form his [[robot mode]] arms, not only does this mean he's left with two thumbs, but also a tiny, barely noticeable finger molded near his wrist. The double thumbs got carried over onto his animation model, yet his in-show beast mode appears to only have three toes. Between all this, it has to be said that real-life raptors had no more than four toes on each of their feet.
