Transformers Fall of Cybertron - Sludge Revealed!

If it turns out that the dynobots can combine, My head will explode from sheer epicness

PLEASE, if there is any kindness left in the world, give us toys of these guys. Please

And the Dinbot Fanboys rejoiced

I'm so glad they went with the original Apatosaurus dino mode and didn't update him into another species. the transformation looks better too rather than having the head and neck hang off the back. I don't mind the small robot head either. Hasbro, if you do only one thing to please the fans this year, please make Voyager sized FoC Dinobots.

On a side note, Firefox shows that Apatosaurus is a spelling mistake and should be Brontosaurus, lol. Someone needs to brush up on their dino names

Also, I wish they called the Triceratops Slag, not Slog. I'm British and I know what that word normally means in my country but I can over look it to have my Transformers with their correct names.

sludge doesnt look that great but the others are frakin epic, normally id say i hope they make toys of these guys but with the current pricing & quality issues i cant.

If Snarl gets left out, I will be bummed.

toys please. but how about some neck room

Swoop looks awesome, lovin those wings in robot mode. Hasbro, PLEASE make toys of these !!

If they get these five right, that'll massively counterbalance the bad shit that's been going on the last few months.

I couldn't have said it better!

I will rejoice if toys are made, but I've never know Hasbro to pass on an opportunity to screw things up, so I'm not holding my breath.

Don't worry, he's in.

Back, and to the right (in Beast Mode).

My personal favorite Dinobot, and they did not dissapoint. Bring on Snarl!

Fantastic looking. Robot head is a little small, but worse things could happen.

Can't wait to see Snarl and a group shot. Might be pretty cool if the finally introduce actual combination into the Dinobots this time around seeing as how Shockwave is the one who re-built them and how obsessed his WFC/EXO/EXI/FOC character is with combination.

Not G1 enough. F**k everything. Boycott this game.

Just kidding, this is almost as, if not just as epic as, when they revealed Bruticus! I WANT TOYS OF THESE NOW!

Wow. This is gonna be awesome.

Come on Hasbro, new Dinobot toys would be a guaranteed jackpot!

Dude, I almost didn't make it to the Just kidding part!

You got me!

I love these designs. My favorite incarnation of the Dinobots to date. A mix of voyagers and deluxes would be so freaking epic...

How do you think they'll divide the classes up? Personally;Grimlock and Sludge as Voyagers;Snarl,Swoop,Slag as deluxes. And if they go with a combiner thing then go G1 combiner styled and have Grimlock a Voyager and the rest deluxes. But hey I'm just dreaming here.

Those scales are my picks exactly. Honestly, I don't want them to combine. This combining Dinobot thing does work for me. Besides, it would be WAY less hideous if the design team could focus on just making individual robots. I don't care to see another toy version of a FOC combiner, ever.

DAMN, this looks awesome
Toys of these would be icing on the cake

Pretty cool designs and all but if we don't get the Dinobots in plastic, it'll be a wasted opportunity by Hasbro. Plus, I want some modern Dinobots that are voyager size, not deluxes!

So much sexy in this topic.

Sadly, this is so true. PLEASE GIVE US THESE IN PLASTIC THAT ARE WAY BETTER THAN THE COMBATICONS. It wouldn't be hard to beat them!

And have them screwed up like Bruticus? Or PCC? Please no.

triKlops wrote:Toys of these would be icing on the cake

I think they'd be the whole cake.

I think this set up is the most obvious for the FoC Dinobots:

Voyager
Grimlock
Sludge

Deluxe
Swoop
Snarl
Slag

No combination mode too. However, what is obvious to us seems to not be obvious to Hasbro and we will most likely get them in the new tiny Deluxe scale that is becoming the norm. Also, the most obvious to us is all 5 Dinobots. Going by past examples we will probably only get one

We can only hope that at least Grimlock is a Voyager, but I fear they'll all be Deluxes due to Hasbro's strict "All Generations are Deluxes only" rule.

Nice, but Im more interested in the possibility of figures. I dont do video games.

Rated X wrote:I dont do video games.

I don't really either. but I still wanted to know what went on in the story of WFC. So, what I did was, instead of playing the game myself, I watched a complete walkthrough of the story mode gameplay on YouTube, in which I got the full feel the game's plot, characters, levels, and events; all without having to play it on my own (I probably wouldn't have been any good at it anyway, since I'm beyond terrible at shooter games ).

For scale purposes, am I the only one that finds the best size for Grimlock and Sludge to be one size larger than voyager class?

You mean Ultra class? That would look cool but I think they would be far to big.

Yeah, you're right. Voyager class FOC Dinobots would look rather perfect next to TFC Hercules! That should make for some intriguing diorama *crosses fingers for a release* C'mon Hasbro, design a Lightning Strike Coalition!!

Thing is, like I said, Hasbro is strict about making all Generations figures be Deluxe class only. Remember how we felt that Onslaught would have worked better as a Voyager to make a better proportioned Bruticus? Well, look what size he is.

Following yesterday's Transformers: Fall of Cybertron Sludge reveal, the official Transformers Game facebook page is now giving as a look at Snarl! Check out the awesome concept art below. Transformers: Fall of Cyberton will be in stores on August 28th, 2012!

I know, it's like I posted earlier:

To all of the fans, a voyager sized Onslaught makes sense, Hasbro just don't seem so see it.

Edit for the Snarl reveal:
Dude I think I just filled the cup. Snarl looks amazing. He is the only Dinobot I had as a kid and I love this. I want a Snarl toy more than ever now.

Yeah, they look cool alright, but where did you get the info that hastak would actually ever do toy versions of these guys. Maybe they will, but I really wouldn't hold my breath to wait that. There is a really small change that they will come in 2013 like the voyager class Starscream/seekers, but so far we haven't seen any pictures or got any info. Or have I missed something important? So isn't it a bit early to debate what size they might be (or will be, as some suggets). Don't you think

Dorkimus wrote:There is a really small change that they will come in 2013 like the voyager class Starscream/seekers,

That Starscream will be a Deluxe, not a Voyager.

Okay...after seeing that robot form of Snarl I am completely sold. He looks uttlerly bad-ass! Can I say that here? And yes @Trikeboy, FOC Onslaught being voyager class would have resolved so much for this newly-designed Bruticus. He just looks so awkward being the centerpiece all flimsy.

It's pure speculation right now. It's what we want to see from Hasbro. I think Grimlock was confirmed, the other 4, nothing so far.

So much awesome!!!!! No way a toy could live up to these designs, no matter what size they are! I cannot wait for this game!

REALLY hope we get figures of these guys. Even if they're deluxes-they look awesome

GetRightRobot wrote:So much awesome!!!!! No way a toy could live up to these designs, no matter what size they are! I cannot wait for this game!

I second that. i.e. Take a look at the FOC Slag..his conversion from Triceratops to robot form in particular. There is virtually no feasible approach in designing him. Unless you have a crapload of snap-on/snap-off pieces like the ever-classic G1 Omega Supreme figure. And how humble of you to say, Get Right..honestly, no future dinobot could live up to your masterpiece custom work.

It's so G1-y in it's Transformation and robot mode.

Just a couple of updates/tweaks to both.

I'd love a toy of this. Sad that it is more likely there will not be a toy, as that there will.

I don't know about that. There are some really talented designers out there. Hasbro/Takara/3rd Party/Customizers. I don't think I've made the end all of Dinobots, but I really appreciate you saying so.

I just can't see how these can be translated into great toys. These game designs are what I've imagined for a long time. I love them!

Yay, Snarl! He was my favourite Dinobot in G1.

Lets face it, this is something Hasbro will know. If they don't make toys of the Dinobots, they will get one upped by a 3rd party. To be honest, I would prefer a 3rd party version because they would probably all be voyager sized.

That. Is. Epic beyond words. I'm loving his robot mode right now.
This is how I rate the dinobots
1) Grimlock
2) Snarl
3) Slag
4) Swoop
5) Sludge

Trikeboy wrote:To be honest, I would prefer a 3rd party version because they would probably all be voyager sized.

Voyager sized 3rd-party versions would cost about $100 each. Maybe that's OK for you, but a lot of us can't afford that. I'd rather have Hasbro Deluxes for $12/each.

Snarl looks awesome! However, has anyone else noticed that while the facebook page names Sludge and Swoop, they don't specifically name Snarl and Slag. I wonder if there will be a name change there considering the word Slag is frowned upon in some places.

The Triceratops' name is Slug.

mmhmm, and it is a stupid name change. I'm Scottish and I don't mind him being called Slag. I can see a problem getting it localised in the uk without it though. I'll call him Slag no matter what they call him.

Depends on where you shop. If you only shop at BigBadToyStore then yes it would cost that much. I shop at Robotkingdom and they are a lot cheaper. I got the Herc components shipped for less than BBTS were offering before shipping. However, I do take the point that they would be more expensive. I would pay for them though.
