    Where do you get the stands for the airborne poses?

    These are awesome pictures! Side note: Has anyone else had stability issues with Slash? Mine doesn’t stand very well in Velociraptor mode...

    That Orion axe is perfect for her! So going to have to do that.

    Mine tends to tip over unless she's in a specific pose.

    It's the Prime Master Micronus with Cloudburst.

    I love this figure! She does feel like she’s always been a part of the Dinobots. I can see her in the scene from TF:TM where the Dinobots take on Devastator-she’d be jumping on him trying to claw his eyes out, lol :) ! I have stability issues with her in raptor mode too, but I can overlook them.

    It's so rare at this point to get any generations characters that aren't slavish G1 recreations, so Slash is a welcome surprise. I haven't had any issues with stability like other people, either. I wish the seat would close completely when not pulled out, but it's a minor blemish on an otherwise fantastic figure.

    Slash represents how you should introduce a new character to a team properly. She fits the color scheme, her design follows the design of the team, her alt mode fits the teme of the team, and she has a role that was lacking in the team.

    Honestly, I hope we see more like Slash in the future. I still keep hoping we\'ll get (maybe in WFC) a G1 Scorn or Splash to go with the team.

    BTW, does anyone else hear the music from “Jurassic Park” when playing with her? “Clever girl!” :)

    This is how you make a new Dinobot, unlike that Strafe abomination from IDW.

    She's a great addition to Grimlock's team.

    Dang she looks nice. One of the only POTP things I\'ve seen as of late (in stores) is wave one legends. Is she worth picking up?

    She's an awesome little figure. Honestly, one of my favorites I've opened from the mainline in a long time. She fits the team and she's a blast to transform and pose.

    I haven't experienced the stability issues in raptor mode, but I usually have one foot forward and one back a bit, so it may just be my choice of poses.

    I fixed mine, but I had to pop out the pin holding the tail & seat on and fiddle at it with the x-acto knife for a while to figure what needed plastic to be removed. Don't recall what exactly did it finally, but it can be fixed with some time & patience. And bandages...

    I ended up buying her twice, something I almost never do. She\'s just that nice that I\'m going to want to be able to display her in both forms. And the first one had a loose hip.

    I can almost see the episode of the original cartoon that introduces her. We\'d have some of the Autobots complaining about having another Dino-dummy to deal with. Then Spike and Wheeljack would explain this time they based the new Dinobot on a smaller, faster, smarter dinosaur, the Velociraptor. Someone makes fun of her small size, and ends up getting a demonstration of what she can do. Meanwhile the other Dinobots go missing, leading to the Autobots using the newest Dinobot to track them down, and finding the Decepitcons have taken control of the Dinobots using Bombshell\'s Cerebro Shells....
