The other box states "Launching Missile!"

The /toy/ board on ebaums said that the faction symbol rotates between Maximal and Predacon. Look at the box art, because it confirms it. The lines indicate a square inside his head around the Predacon symbol.

I reckon TakaraTomy might get his deco more show-accurate.

Whoa! WTH/WTF! The foreign line's been ace at nailing paint jobs, what happened there? Other than a change to the brown on the dino-mode (which doesn't seem show accurate either) it looks like the same figure!
Glad I'm not missing out since I went with a Classics preorder, but sucks to know there's not a show accurate option at all.

It's early, I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not...
Dinobot was originally a Predacon on the show. Also, the Botcon Pre-Beast Dinobot comes with a Predacon key.

and a later passage of "Under the command of MEGATRON, ???????????? is not the warrior’s war, As the battle on this strange, ??????????? ?????????? ???????? ???????, a change in DINOBOT himself…."
The colors may not be right, but I missed out on much of Beast Wars, so I'll pick this one up.
