There have been a decent amount of new factions introduced in modern Transformers lore. My favorites are the Armorizers (rocky looking robots that transform into rocky looking vehicles... apparently inspired by Inhumanoids) and the Fossilizers (Maximals and Predacons with skeletal dinosaur beast modes). I think these are both really fun concepts with some really great designs (and some not-so-great designs as well). There is also a fun added gimmick with these two lines in that the figures can be broken apart into all their component pieces and reassembled/swapped with other figures, creating new characters and combiners in limitless variations. However, my only female Fossilizer, the Predacon Vertebreak, does not have this feature (except for her tail!). This figure doesn't look entirely feminine, but she's small, uniquely designed, and I always appreciate another female "dinobot" in my collection - especially if she's an evil skeleton pachycephalosaur. Let's check out Vertebreak below!
Vertebreak's only accessory is her tail which can be brandished as a weapon in robot mode.
The Dracorex skeletal beast mode looks awesome.
And as one of the more newly-discovered dinosaurs out there (2006), it's cool that this was selected for her beast mode.
The Vertebreak mold was redeco'd for the (male) Maximal Fossilizer Dracodon
Her beast mode jaw is articulated (mine was stuck but i finally got it free).
Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
Here is Vertebreak with the Legends Class Dinobot Slash from 2017.
Cheers!
