Grimlock Should Be A Chick!

[heroicnonsense]

According to some scientists in an article of Britain's Times-website, dinosaurs were covered in feathers. That means that movies like Jurassic Park and documentaries like Walking With Dinosaurs are incorrect, but also that the Dinobots should have been fluffy cute aswell.

 

“The way these creatures are depicted can no longer be considered scientifically accurate,� he said. “All the evidence is that they looked more like birds than reptiles. Tyrannosaurs might have resembled giant chicks.�

 

One section of the article mentions that the British National History Museum in London is looking into changing the appearance of the robotic dino's in it's toys-exhibition. Anyone who's ever been there knows that the actual Hasbro Dinobots are part of that exhibition.

 

<sarcasm mode> Should we collectors follow their example? </sarcasm mode>

 

"The Natural History Museum in London, which has a popular exhibition of robot dinosaurs, conceded this weekend that some of its permanent displays may have to be adapted to reflect the new findings."
