The Transformers: Best of UK: Dinobots
From MediaWiki
Along the same lines of Generations, IDW Publishing began a series of Marvel UK reprints in September 2007, focusing started the Dinobots. Best of UK: Dinobots, much like Generations, featured brand new covers that were either recreations of the original cover or a depiction of some important scene in the issue. However, unlike the previous series, these comics were sold at full price ($3.99 US).
