Newsarama have posted a full five page preview of next week’s Transformers Redemption one-shot, from IDW. The Dinobots were some of the roughest, toughest warriors on the Autobot side. But how do they adapt to peacetime? And what happens when four Dinobots walk into a bar? (if you guessed a brawl, you’d be about right)
Check out the preview attached to this post, and be sure to pick up the full-length one-shot when it arrives in comic stores next Wednesday!

I don't see the brand new character suddenly becoming leader of the Dinobots happening. Especially when, as the title says, this whole story is about Slug and the others redeeming themselves, anyway.

OH GOD
Pachyrhinosaurus introduced as a love interest for Slug.
Also, the -acy era set up HOW we can get another dinobot. Have her scan one of those "demon" things the Dinos scanned in Monstrosity.

Best Dinobot designs ever and I will fight people with knives. Livio isn't doing them justice, they look fantastic in MD.
I like the FOC but I prefer the IDW. Particularly Grimlock.

New lady Dinobot sounds good to me, short of making her be from Eukaris I'll be intrigued to see how she goes about becoming a Dinobot. Hope she gets a sweet dino-mode.

According to IDW's weekly newsletter, this one-shot's introducing something–or rather someone–I wasn't really expecting:
YoungPrime
Agreed! Sludge and Snarl look like Dino-Muppet's and Swoop looks bad even in bot mode (and what's with that lame accent?). I don't care if they're Roche's design or not if they do finally make Generations versions, I really hope they don't use these designs as inspiration.

Redemption ties directly into the latest issue of Transformers (formerly-RID). It's basically a feature length special episode of the series, like the 2012 MTMTE/RID Annuals and TF: Punishment.

Still waiting on that Barricade figure, Hasbro. but I guess at this point, I'm waiting on nonsense. Interesting story line, though. And this ties into the main IDW series? I read through a bit of MTMTE and loved it thus far, but as far as how connected these stories are outside of MTMTE and RID, I'm lost

They just look a lot better when Roche is the one drawing them…
Sockie
Yeah, the other Dinobots' designs all come from Roche's work, too.
Sumner Sturgeon
Aren't the IDW designs traceable back to Nick Roche's early work? I know Grimlock over in MTMTE is still rooted in his original Roche design, with the "teeth" on his mouthplate and organic-looking T. rex head, but I'm not sure if the other Dinobots' designs are from him too.
