Transformers Legacy toyline

Credit (or infamy depending) where it's due, but I believe it was someone sitting around Bandai that snapped their fingers first. Which is also probably why Hasbro won't make just straight "rocks".

On a side note - this is their chance to fix the biggest missed opportunity of the Fossilizers subline by giving us a Transformers version of "Rockasaurus Rex"!

Er, that's "Fossilsaurus".

I don't know, but I hope he got a raise!

Likely someone browsing the forms a couple of years ago and saw someone mention "Rock lords" and thought "We could do a updated rock lord line of figures!!"

I would assume Mark from the sounds of things.

ZacWilliam, I just want this guy...

I believe Fossilsaurus was the purple'ish one. Either way, the Tonka catalog called this one Rockasaurus. Maybe Fossilsaurus was the creature's type and Rockasaurus was its name?

Genus and species?

I suppose that all the fossilizers are technically rock lords? Fossils being stone and all?

According to the link, "Rockasaurus" also refers collectively to the single rocks that turned into dinos. If I'm reading correctly, the combiner was named "Rockasaurus Rex".

But yes, this would have been a cool idea to produce with the Armorizers.

I think I may have enjoyed the rock aesthetic if applied to beasts rather than vehicles. The Fossilizers are named as such, but the molds are more bone than stone in appearance.

I am enjoying the rock vehicles, but I would also happily take rock animals as well. Something like the old Rock Lords Terra Rock or Spike Stone:

But with a robot mode instead of a rock mode.

But, if they wanted to straight up make a new Fossilsaurus/Rockasaurus, I'd buy it.

I want a heavy retool of Kingdom Megs called Tyrannosaurus Rocks.

The regular Rock Lords (the good guys, at least) already looked varying degrees of robotic. It wouldn't be much of a leap.
