Oh... my... frickin... God...

Wow, that's sick. This would have been an epic twist on a G1-type theme with a big dose of irony had they done something like this on the show. The Constructicons don't combine but the Dino do.

Wowee. Pretty sweet. I wonder where he got the Sludge/Snarl parts from...

Looks brilliant!

I was very impressed with the Snarl and Sludge customs. Good work. I would buy them.

You aint kidding man...That thing is absolutely phenominal...

I'm thinking he got them from zoids

Individually, each Dinobot is very nice.

The combiner is a nice bit of custom work too.

However, Dinobots should NEVER combine. There should be a very firm rule on this.

If I were running for President, I would make it a party platform.

*armors up*

Sludge's head (a Brachiosaurus instead of an Apatosaurus) actually comes from a Super Sentai toy; Bakuryu Action Series 03: Brachiosaurus. In US Terms: the Brachiozord from Power Rangers Dino Thunder.

*goes to defense mode*

That is just plain awesome. I'd buy that Sludge and Snarl in a heartbeat, too.

I just realize he has lots more pictures of all of them in different modes here:

Says you! I say the only thing cooler than dinosaurs is dinosaurs that transform into robots, and the only thing cooler than dinosaurs that transform into robots is dinosaurs that transform into robots AND combine to form a giant robot.

They've slaughtered just about every other sacred cow we thought we had, so why shouldn't dinobots combine? I don't have a problem if the story and the toys are well done.

This is amazing for a kitbash, but if Hasbro did it, I'd expect better. The dinomodes are great, but the gestalt, not so much.

You're trying to ruin free-enterprise and the Dinobot spirit that pulled this country out of WWII.

Dinobots have managed to kick ass without combining and thereby retained their individual characters. No one knows a damn thing about the individual gestalt bots compared to their combined form.

Forcing combination on Dinobots isn't just wrong...it will end free p0rn on the internet forever.

I like it a lot !!! wow Nice work !!

LOLOLOLOLOLOL!
This was already posted in the customs section on SEIBERTRON!!
LOLOL
It is awesome through.

Two words: Combiner Kibble.

that is just crazy awesome.

Sludge looks really nice. And the paint on these guys is superb! I wish I could kitbash like that.

But I'm gonna have to agree with Counterpunch. I don't like the combined mode. His head makes him looks so sad.

I'm with CP on this. The Dinobots have proven countless times just how powerful they are without needing a combined form. To make them combine would just feel wrong.

The custom is very nice and I love the detail, but I don't think the dinobots as we know them should combine in any official continuity. Maybe if there was a different sets of dinobots then maybe, but Gimlock and his crew should stay separate.

So true. Give back our p0rn Dino-King

Well, except Swindle. And Slingshot. And Dead End. And most of the Predacons.

But I agree the Dinobots shouldn't combine. They're already Mary Sue enough as it is.

And the only thing cooler than THAT would be dinosaurs that transform into robots that combine to form a giant robot that transforms into a giant dinosaur! Thus completing the cycle.

I would pay an obscene amount of money for a set that did that...
