TOY NEWS FOR 6/19/2014 - SDCC EXCLUSIVE - HASBRO - TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION - DINOBOT SPECIAL EDITION SET

I was just saying the other day to someone how toy companies don't make cardboard playsets or dioramas anymore. For me, they were a staple of many childhood memories, from the Star Wars Sandcrawler and AT-At playsets to the GI Joe Cobra Missile Base, they made for great backdrops and are thing of nostalgia for many collectors.

Maybe the folks over at Hasbro were feeling some of that nostalgia too when they created this awesome cardboard display of the Autobot Ark for their SDCC exclusive Dinobot Set.

The set will include Grimlock, Slug (Slag), Snarl and Strafe (Swoop) from Age of Extinction-- but all re-colored in their G1 decos!

After that crazy "Knights of Cybertron" set reveal, Hasbro has redeemed themselves times 10 with this awesome set!

The set will sell for $159.99 exclusively at Hasbro's booth at SDCC.
