Third Party group Planet X has confirmed on their Facebook page that they are currently working on making all SIX of the Dinobots, revealing that there will be five more upcoming Dinobot releases alongside their recently released Project X Caelus, revealing art of the six Dinobots from Fall of Cybertron as a teaser.
This announcement reveals they are not only working on making their own interpretation of Fall of Cybertron Grimlock, but are working on Snarl, Slag/Slug/Slog, Sludge and a plesiosaur Dinobot who may or may not be based on Paddles! For those who don’t know, Paddles originates from a chapter in the 2004 iBooks release named Transformers Legends in which the gentle Dinobot is dug up from the ground some time after being left for dead by the other Dinobots after Decepticons attacked Dinobot Island.
Between Planet X’s new reveal and the inclusion of the Dinobots in the upcoming Transformers: Age of Extinction film and toyline, it has become clear that 2014 is the beginning of the Year of the Dinobot! Stick with TFW2005 as we bring you the latest news as it happens.

Case in point…

Can't wait to see a Sludge or Snarl prototype as I am pretty desperate for a new version of each.
Rexidus
No problem. At this point we're going to have to be posting this every once in a while because none of the news locations (the thread or the news article) have updated to include it. So those not watching this as closely as us are not going to hear about it.
I've seen this happen before.

People complained and cried foul when I said this. I still agree, the more speculation, the more confusion. Just sit tight and wait.

Thanx Ryoku for posting that, I couldn't get it to work
AgentAlabama113
Wow. Looking forward to them.

To be clear, they said this:

This should REALLY be in the first post and the news article should be updated as well.

They didn't say they weren't but they didn't say they were. They said they thought that it was a cool picture of all the dinobots but they don't know if they are doing all of them. We all are waiting right now cuz nobody knows exactly what they are doing.

Their word is they are planning to release the 4 Dinobots to compliment FoC Grimlock. They have recently released Caelus (Swoop) {one down, 3 to go}, however, Planet X's recent poll strongly hints at (the possibility of) working on Paddles and even their rendition of Grimlock.
For the time being it would be safe to assume Sludge, Slug, and Snarl. To be frank, the pic and poll they have put up has caused more confusion and speculating. Best bet is to wait for Planet X to come out and confirm which Dinobots they will be working on.

To be clear, Planet X is NOT going to make the other 4 FoC Dinobots including a FoC version of Paddles?
daimchoc
Yes.
The other three Dinobots…
OmarJT82
Is this true?
Zavien

That's art from the game.
For instance, you can see it in this article on Comicsvine from over a year ago.

If they'd share their plans, we wouldn't have to speculate like this!
twelvesam
It's not worrying though, right? It's speculating. And as long as people aren't being dicks, it's fun to do… and part of the purpose of these threads.
