Unfortunately this didn't surpass expectations in any way. It was a decent read, but too short, too little complication, and too much of what we've seen of the Dinobots in every other incarnation.
Almost a poorer version of Autocracy's already cartoonish writing. The Dinobots are more Furmanesque, which was nice. They decide to do something heroic--um, trouble remembering--despite the fact that the other Autobots think that they're jerks.
Sad to say that IDW did one amazing, fantastic, top-10-TF-comics-of-all-time issue with Spotlight: Shockwave, and haven't done anything with the Dinobots since. This doesn't break the trend.
And the art! Where have Don, Casey, EJ and Nick gone? Griffith and Milne are quite good, but we seem to get subpar art on every ancillary issue lately, like the MTMTE Annual. Okay, actually the art on the RiD annual was good.

Or do one big poo in the morning and another one in the afternoon. I bet they weren't even excited by and then subsequently disappointed by Star Wars Prequels. Or have a glass full of spare change near their beds. That they don't have.
