[edit]- Dinobot Thunderlips (Promotional Micron, 2014)
- "Dinobot Micron" Thunderlips is a redeco of Classics Knockdown in clear-purple and clear-black plastic, transforming into a robotic Triceratops. His color scheme is based on the decos commonly given to Age of Extinction Slug toys.
- Care needs to be taken with him, as his clear-plastic seems particularly tightly-assembled and fragile compared to the others in the "Dinobot Micron" promotion.
- He was only available as a Joshin Denki and Bic Camera campaign item in Japan, free with the purchase of 3000 yen worth of Lost Age product.
- This mold was also used to make Cybertron Mini-Con Knockdown, Ironlunge, the 2008 Universe Stockade, and Dark of the Moon Triceradon.

Notes
[edit]- Thunderlips takes his name from Slug's fake working name, which in turn takes the name from a character in Rocky III.
- As promotional items from TakaraTomy, Thunderlips and his comrades were released with no bio information whatsoever. The notion that Thunderlips exists in the movieverse setting is an assumption based purely upon him having Slug's toy colour scheme.
