Fiction
Classics
Hacksaw, Knockdown, and Terrorsaur were among the many Mini-Cons created by the Last Autobot for the purpose of restoring Cybertron. Together they were the Dinobots, a fierce team of warriors that worked to clear Cybertron's underworld of mutants. Until his untimely death, Hacksaw served both as leader of the Dinobots and as second-in-command to Mini-Con leader Modus Prime. The New World
After the defeat of Bludgeon's forces, the already nucleon-infused Swoop was caught in a titanic explosion at a nucleon-processing plant and was drastically mutated. The quick reaction of the Autobot Mini-Cons saved him and boom; Mini-Con Swoop was born. Games of Deception
Toys
Classics
- Dinobots (Mini-Con Team, 2006)
- Knockdown, Swoop, and Terrorsaur were sold as a set. The Dinobots are part of the first wave of "Classics Mini-Cons".
- The whole set of molds was used to make Ransack, Windrazor and Stockade from the Battle Support Team component of the Universe Mini-Cons 10-pack.
Notes
- Hacksaw was an original, non-toy character created for the Collector's Club prose story, The New World. His addition was made for story reasons, as the origin of the Classics Mini-Cons presented in that piece was somewhat incompatible with Classics Swoop being the original Generation 1 Dinobot.
