Check out the images he sent us below from te Aeon Seremban 2 shopping mall in Seremban, Negeri Sembilan, and make sure to flag up any sightings of your own in the appropriate section and forums!

The AOE toyline is starting to reek of desparation.

Well it is already half-way in, if we're to believe it'll end within the year.

I wouldn't mind getting this set even tough it'll be quite pricey in-store.

These are one of the few Transformers AOE toys that make sense along with Drift and that Breakout Battle Optimus Prime.

A Nemesis repaint of Power Attacker Optimus Prime. And I see s many yays and cringes :lol:


I like it but my review of the regular release is kinda dying off in views so I'm not sure if I'll get it.

Transformers Colombia, a Facebook fan page, has provided the first official in and out of package images of the upcoming Age Of Extinction G1 Deco Voyager Slog, courtesy of group member Felipe León Nájera. Slog is an Amazon.com exclusive and can be preordered here. (His release date is scheduled for December 15th, but dates are not always set in stone.)

Slog shares the same deco as the G1 Dinobot set from this years San Diego Comic Con. You can see more of that set here.

You can see the regular retail release in our always detailed, always awesome figure galleries, by clicking right here!

1. I'm very, very excited for these Platinum sets. That Platinum Leader Grimlock is the best of the bunch, I think.

2. G1-deco Slog looks awesome! Can't wait for Amazon to ship him out.

I really like this figure, even more so now that I have removed all those weird clunky weapons, even down to the black pegs that hold the lances. He now looks sleek and uncomplicated, and actually like a dinosaur.

Personally I don't think Dinobots need these weapons; they can rely on their sheer brute force. But Slog and Slug suffered the most by poor incorporation into the figure.

I am passing on this and all of the AOE Dinosaurs, i think they all look terrible. Way too simplistic in design and there is no consistency colour wise.

Comment by Madeus Prime Aug 31, 2014
Huh, not too shabby. I'd get him and the other G1 repaints from wherever, but I find myself wanting the main line figures more.

I still don't like the lances but I think this guy looks pretty cool, especially in these colours. Nice work Hasbro.

That Slog looks like he's wearing wooden shoes.

Isn't that funny?

December ? I thought it was shipping in September around the same time as the SDCC sets ship from Hasbro.com ?

For what it's worth the regular Slog is starting to show up in Walmarts. (Miami) So don't go paying crackhead prices online for the regular version. I bought one. He is an awesome figure. But mine was missing those pegs on his neck to put the lances. I was fortunate enough to find another one and exchange him in another Walmart. Saw Drift and passed. Ugh...

Is there a reason we can't get these stands in the US without ordering from an overseas store.

Hey I was wondering about something... I saw that it said on the robot kingdom website that the breakout battle set will be available on September 1st but I've seen on other sites that it won't be released until November... Which one is correct? Also are the prices that we're listed for the ale platinum sets the online prices or are they the in store prices?

Wow ... the stands look identical (minus the tf4 logo) to the Tamashii stands. Is Hasbro licensing the stands from Bandai? How does this work? Very interesting ...

Just an update to my last post--I accidentally typed "ale platinum sets" but I meant to put "AOE platinum sets". Sorry. Typo.
