I don't know how many people watched Beast Wars and played Champions,
but I decided to try my hand at converting some of the characters from
that show as 250 Point Project Champions characters.
Here is Dinobot!

Explanation of the conversion:
History: After Megatron II stole the golden disk from the Maximals on
the planet Cybertron, he stole a Predacon ship with transwarp
technology alongside his followers Dinobot, Scorponok II, Terrorsaur,
Waspinator and Tarantulas. Followed by Optimus Primal and his crew
aboard the ship Axelon, the two fought in space and crashed. The
Maximals and Predacons, having traveled back in time, crashed on
prehistoric Earth, where high energon levels threatened to destroy the
crew unless they adopted organic alternate modes. Dinobot was given a
form based on fossil DNA from an Earth dinosaur. Dinobot challanged
Megatron II's ability to lead the Predacons. A missile from Scorponok
left Dinobot without allies. He decided to find the Maximals and
challanged Optimus Primal to a battle for leadership. Optimus won the
fight, but decided to keep Dinobot as a member of his team.
''You slipped... to defeat you in such a manner would have been lacking
in honor. I would not have earned the right to lead. I prefer to defeat
my opponents the old-fashioned way... BRUTALLY!'' - Dinobot refuses to
defeat Optimus Primal the easy way.
Although he found it difficult to fit in, Dinobot became a loyal
Maximal.
Dinobot was killed protecting a group of pre-humans from Megatron II's
attempt to erase the human race from ever existing to become allies of
the Autobots.
''Tell my tale to those who ask. Tell it truly, the ill deeds along
with the good, and let me be judged accordingly. The rest... is
silence.'' - Dinobot's last words.
Trivia: On the Beast Wars television show, the voice of Dinobot is
played by actor Scott McNeil.
Powers: Dinobot is strong, fast and very brave. He carries a sword and
spinning shield. His eyes emit powerful lasers. He transforms into a
Velociraptor with vicious teeth and claws. In beast mode he has an
enhanced sense of smell and can run quickly. He repairs damage to his
form quicker in beast mode and his better protected from high energon
levels as well.
Weaknesses: Dinobot adheres to a strict code of honor and can be very
confrontational with his fellow Maximals. Dinobot lacks access to
ranged attacks in beast mode.
