If the Dinobots were out of your price range, perhaps the Starriors were more suitable for your dinosaur robot dollars

Gobots were the poor man’s Transformers. Robotix were the poor man’s Gobots. Starriors were the poor man’s Robotix (or vice versa — who cares?). That they had a four issue Marvel Comics miniseries — with covers, like Transformers, by Bill Sienkiewicz — doesn’t save them. Not even the giant red T-Rex thing that vomits yellow Frisbees can do that.
