Transformers Poster 23 Megatron v Dinobot Beast Wars Figueroa Rise of the Beasts

Description

A Beast Wars image from the 20th Anniversary Transformers Summer Special. With Megatron safely contained externally, the Maximals aboard the Autobot shuttle take a much-deserved rest. Even Rattrap eventually falls asleep, to dream…On Earth, Rattrap panics, his self-contained vehicle compromised by the much larger Dinobot 2. Dinobot 2 holds Rattrap in a painfully tight grip, despite Rattrap’s attempts to appeal to any remnants of his attacker’s former persona. Suddenly, Rattrap is rescued by Wolfang, Optimus Minor, and Bonecrusher. Rattrap is full of questions, but Optimus Minor simply tells Rattrap that the three new Maximals do not wish to continue as combatants. Rattrap wakes up aboard the Autobot shuttle. The nature of his dream is left as a mystery. Dinobot is a Predacon ruled by his sense of honor. He lives to die gloriously in battle. When he aided Megatron in the theft of the Golden Disk, Dinobot believed he was in the pursuit of endless glory. But when he and his Predacon peers crashed on what seemed to be the wrong planet alongside a Maximal exploration vessel, he rebelled against Megatron and joined the Maximal team. It would be an uneasy alliance, fraught with turns of loyalty and turns of Shakespearean phrase. But it also led to strong friendships and even the salvation of all humanity. As befits a warrior of his stature, Dinobot is skilled in all forms of combat. He wields a spinning sword and a rotating blade, both which are his preferred means of battle, though he has been known to use ranged weapons such as his laser eye-beams or a simple handheld gun. He has threatened to use any and all of these on Rattrap, with whom he has an intense rivalry. Deep down, he may respect the rodent, but he’ll die before he’ll admit to it.
