    Are the ports for his larger "lances" able to be removed? It kinda sucks that those who wish to go lance-less have to deal with those ports just jutting out of his Dino-neck. They look like they're on mushroom pegs. Can you confirm?

    The neck has artication, the wrists do not. It's also a lot of rubbery plastic. Watch Felzbug's review at the transformation part. It's a mixed bag of a figure.

    @OP - care to give a more elaborate review? "Badass" really isn't saying much.


    The dinosaur nut in me should be going crazy, but I dunno, Slog just seems boring. Neither mode looks as good as it should be, the red parts look really out of place, and for some reason I'm distractingly reminded of DotM Laserbeak.

    the funny thing about that remark is that gorillas don't tend to put their arms like that very much.

    Damn! Snarl & Sludge are my favorite Dinobots. While Snarl looks awesome & I can't wait to get him, this guy looks absolutely horrible! No way I want this piece of crap in my collection.

    the stock pics have the black things attached to the lances when he's holding them in robot mode so they can detach.

    I don't think ive seen a more unique looking bot mode since ROTF "The Fallen".

    Dino mode is a plus. It does the job..but that bot mode just looks like a hellspawn from nightmare land.

    Add to that one of the more ingenious beast TFmations..This one is win all around if you ask me. Cant wait til I see him in stores..but judging by the way things are going..it may be a hard one to find.

    Cut off the spikes from his legs and repaint all the red stuff into grey and you got a nice figure.

    I actually like the dino mode more than the bot mode.

    Things I hate about the bot mode:
    - Legs are too thick and bulky.
    - The tail-waist-belt thing is ugly and a big eye-sore because of its bright red color. The two halves do not align when you pose the legs, causing an even bigger eye-sore.
    - The flap in front looks like a "loin cloth" (which I wanted to name as Sloggi)

    Overall, when you stand Slog (bot mode) with the rest of the AOE dinobots, he doesn't look like he belongs there at all.

    How close to Sludge is he to transformation ? I figure the feet/ thighs are part of the hind legs/ tail, arms are front legs, etc.

    I wonder if he could hold Sludges gun

    The more I see him, the more I feel obligated to get him just because he's a sauropod, and you just don't see enough of those in Transformers.

    Wait, are those Frankenstein neck bolts permanently attached? Blech...

    I got Slog today, Awesome Dinobot. Might call him Sledge instead. Now all I need is Snarl.
