The Energon Pub

Sadly I am a moron and dont know how to post a pic. I bought a lot and in it was supposed to be a broken sludge, that I had the parts to fix. Instead it is a brown/not grey and gold/not silver sludge with wings and a pointed dino head. Anyone ever see this?

It's an old knockoff:

Yup that's what it sounds like to me too. The Prehistory Animal K.O.

Anyway to post a pic either host it in a image sharing site like Imageshack or Photobucket and paste the [img] tag from there in a post, or use the attachment box under the reply box here to attach the pic.

But in all likely hood its the Prehistory Animal KO

Is it this guy?

It is funny how they call it a "prehistory animal" rather than dinosaur to keep from copying the name "dinobot". All things considered though, it is pretty cool! And, he definately could pass as the missing dinobot.

Yup that's the guy missing arm though. I'll prob put g1 one on thanks

Anyone else think it's awesome how they kinda merged Sludge and Swoop into one? As knock-offs go, these are cool. They could even pass for some kind of "alternate universe" dinobots, don't you think?

I'd rather have a bunch of Prehistory Animals than a green ROTF Prime with razor blades for hands, or an upscaled Mini-Con that crumbles to dust. Knock offs ain't what they used to be!

The Braves series show Yuusha Exkizer did just that. The antagonists, called "Geists" were modeled after the Dinobots, and they could merge in the show. First into a singular entity called Mad Geister:

Mad Geister on TFWiki.

And then into the more stable pairs called Hormor (Horn + Armor Geist) and Pteder (Ptera and Thunder).

Pteder (Top) and Hormor (Bottom) on TFWiki.

Thanks, JelZe. Looking at those character models, I doubt I would've made the connection if you hadn't told me!

Brings to mind "The Beast Within".
