Dons boss Karl Robinson moved to bring in Vine after losing Aaron Wilbraham to Norwich and the 28-year-old goes straight into the squad to face Tranmere on Saturday.
Vine had a loan spell with Brentford cut short due to injury last month and also joined Hull on loan earlier this season.
The former Birmingham frontman has not featured for npower Championship leaders Rangers since last April.
