thought i heard this at a botcon or sdcc post, but id really like more focus on the 13, espically if the fallen is rumored to appear

I would LOVE to see Dinobots in Prime But the only thing I see wrong is where would they stay? If they come to earth,I don't think there would not be enough room in the base to house all 4 or 5 of them.(Played FoC, haven't read the comic yet so I don't know about Sludge) And since they're dinosaurs,I don't think Optimus would let them roam around Earth like he let Wheeljack did.

Well, he didn't let Wheeljack roam around without a vehicle mode.

Besides, the Dinobots could use 3rd modes to disguise themselves in suburban & urban areas, and have their Dino & Robot modes for battle. Ya know, Grimlock a tank, Swoop a fighter jet, Slug/Slag a compact car, and Sludge (if he survived FoC) and Snarl pick-up trucks. Then their respective dino modes, then robot! Triple Changers!

They've been hinting at the Dinobots being in Prime ever since NYCC 2011, but any outright confirmations have yet to be made. I think they want to withhold explicitly saying "yes" or "no" to get people to buy the "Rage of the Dinobots" comic so they can find out if the Dinobots really are gonna be in season 3 or not by reading that first.

Well, with Gregg Berger practically confirmed as a voice for a character next season, I think the speculation about at least Grimlock coming to the series will be raging until the episode airs.

True, but we don't know what effect Shockwave's experiments on the Dinobots had on their biology. For all we know, their T-Cogs can no longer scan new alt mode. That's assuming they go with FoC's origins for them - and if they do, that means Sludge may not be a part of the group given that he practically died in the game.

It's an interesting concept - though it's more likely they'll use some sort of holo-cloak, or be limited to areas with low populations - like most of the battles (though not all) have been.

Jazz collected Sludge's memory core, did he not? He could have been rebuilt at some point in time. And he is in the Rage of Dinobots comic, which bridges Prime Season 2 and 3:

They've done it before.



Plus, the original WFC designs for the Dinobots (Grimlock and Swoop) incorporated vehicle forms.

Well, technically, that's just promotional art. We don't know for certain if Sludge is alive in this comic. His presence in the promo art could just be part of the advertisement as fanservice showing what all five look like together.
