    Talking DINOBOT - SLUDGE

    Hi All

    sooo lets start talking about an MP Type Sludge.... since Scoria is out... does anyone know when a MP size DINOBOT SLUDGE is coming out??

    I like to think "its pointless thinking about how much it costs if you really want it"....

    If you've gone with Scoria, I'd recommend stick with the Fans Toys dinobot line. Pretty sure Sludge will come out after their Snarl. The next Dinobot is Swoop, with Snarl after that. If you go with another company like gigapower, the likelihood of them not scaling well is pretty high.

    cool. gigapower? I afraid ive never heard of that company... is QC any good? have they released any of the dinobots?

    only went with scoria because hes looks wicked on photos! and he was the first one out and would really want him to ram into my TFC hercules like the photo below heres hoping scoria scales properly...



    anyway, sounds like sludge is a loooong way away....

    also never understood why Snarl was never on the 1986 Transformers Movie.

    Snarl is in the '86 movie, but blink and you miss him.



    Gigapower are working on their Snarl currently, it will be their first release. Bulkier than FT's Dinobots.

    I think FT even intend to do a new Grimlock before they get to Sludge. Sludge is 'technically problematic' as far as proportions go, with FT admitting they are having difficulty engineering a good looking Sludge.

    FT were also working on a MP Skyfire, originally teased to come after Soar, so I'm not sure when that will appear now.
    Which brings us to where we are today...

    Snarl is Gigapower's first project, so they're relatively unproven but the prototype pics are very promising.

    And there's another company named Bullsfire who are starting their dinobots with Swoop.

    Best stick to one company and avoid the will-they-scale issues.

    It's because of a script error, where the script specifies '4 Dinobots'. So Snarl does (briefly) show up twice, but when he does one of the other Dinobots is missing instead.

    Somewhat off-topic, but I've always wondered which side would win if Dinobots had a brawl with Predaking.

    My gut feeling goes to Predaking, but I think Dinobots would put up a good fight.
