The thing at the back of his triceratops head is called a frill. It protects Slag's species of dinosaur's neck from predators as well as to be used to attract a mate
He looks really cool, I can't wait to see their Grimlock. Just when Starscream thought he was free, he gets thrown right back in to the pit. HA HA HA. Anyway great review emgo keep up the good work.
Caboose The freelancer not really if you think about it, it would make complete since that they look better than hasbro, because the third party figures has more money and engineering put into their figures, but to compensate for that the figures are also expensive
+JaZzPrIme74 even those characters that weren't seen in the campaign like: dead end hound breakdown (but we saw breakdown in wfc) and all those guys even like Zeta prime. Now those guys all would be awesome!
+JaZzPrIme74 I agree I think Planet X should do more figures after the Dino bots. I bet if they make a FOC Optimus he would be better then the hasbro one.
I love Planet X for their Fall of Cybertron "Masterpiece" line. Can't always afford these big Third Party figures, but I will be getting the metallic edition reissue of the Dinobots, starting with Vulcan (Grimlock) because Gregg Berger is going to be at TFNation in the UK this summer...
I kinda like the name Slug better than Slag. It reminds me of the term "Slugger" which is a name used for the heavy hitter character. I think the name works
With so many third-party Dinobots would you be willing to do a video and compare I've been wanting to buy one full set of third-party Dinobots and I'm just not sure which set to get because there are so many
i want these guys but in that web site some are sold out how do i get complete set ? on that web site all they have are the ones from age of extinction i want the ones shown in this video
I found most of them in my local comic/collectible show called Frank and Sons here in California. Try going to some local comic/sci-fi events, shows or even swap meets. Maybe some toy shops. I found them at reasonable prices that weren't marked up. If you have no luck then your last option would be ebay but they're a bit more pricey there. These bots really look good displayed with FOC Bruticus + the upgrade kit by military titans ( sold out but still able to be found ). Hope that helps and good luck finding these dinobots ! :) I still need a few but hopefully I'll have them all.
I'm not emgo, but it really just depends on what version of the dinobots you like more. If you prefer the G1 designs over who they looked in FoC, then go with the Fansprojects, but if you prefer the reverse, then go with Planet X.
+Jman92854 well you have to understand that not everyones brain works the same way when it comes to puzzle play like transformers. I have two friends as old as I am (late 30's) with college educations who have brought me their kids transformers cuz they don't know how to put the toy in robot mode even with the instructions. These guys aren't stupid by any means. Some people are just better at it than others. Doesn't mean they're stupid or dip##ts or whatever. If a kid can transform rotf leader prime in ten seconds with his eyes closed. good for him, but he's not everybody.
emgo316 I understand that, (take my parents, and pretty much every older member of my family. If I showed them even Deluxe Class Bumblebee from 2007, they wouldn't get it and might even break it by accident) but my problem comes in when it affects the toys for everyone else. It's fine that Hasbro makes the simpler toys JUST for younger kids so they can learn and as they get older, maybe move onto the more advanced figures, but it becomes a problem when other TF lines are affected by it. Like, the fact that the figures got scaled down in DOTM and AOE. And just because the parents don't know how to make them transform doesn't mean their stupid, it's just, they're not used to it. I mean we can have this same discussion about today's video games. We might get how to play it instantly, but our parents would have no clue. They didn't grow up with it in their lives or buy any of the figures so they never had a chance to experience it for themselves.
I know you most likely wont read this, but have you considered using Planet X's Omega Supreme toy as a comparison with their others, or just transformer toys in general? He was one of my most favorite toys you've ever reviewed, and I think it would be cool to see some more comparisons with him. Like when using combiners, I know that you already have a lot of comparisons though. Just suggesting.
+TheMadDocta my omega is stored away. I always try to give a mainline comparison with some 3p comparisons. I just try to give a sense of the size of the figure. I can't stand it next to every figure in my collection cuz would be like a 5 hour long video lol
I know that in G1, he was called Slag, but honestly, I do like the name "Slug" better. Kinda sounds a bit more gruff, especially for someone who turns into a robot Triceratops. But, that's just me.
Lol I can't stop laughing when your trying to open his mouth not trying to be mean or nothing and you inspired me to to transformers figure reviews keep up your good work bro and I'll give you a shout out bro
+Far Out Alan I don't hv that much money and besides there isn't anymore of these guys left to buy so I would hv to get them from ppl who have already used them
I currently tring to display them from the scene in the second FOC trailer where they team up on Bruticus. Looks pretty cool if you can get them posed right ! :)
does anyone know what the guns are called, I think they're from WFC but they remind me of the Nucleon Charge Rifle from FOC and here is the link to the FOC weapon im talking about: transformers-fall-of-cybertron.fandom.com/wiki/Nucleon_Charge_Rifle
I was just watching the vid regularly then i got to the dino head articulation and............... HE'S A DEMON, DEMON SPACE DINOSAUR!!!!!!! Made me crack up! :-)
How many Dino Robos do you have? Not complain on your reviews or anything I just noticed that you got a lot of Dinosaur robots both transformers and sentai
The thing at the back of his triceratops head is called a frill. It protects Slag's species of dinosaur's neck from predators as well as to be used to attract a mate
It doesn't match any FoC guns from the game but those are the EMP Shotgun from Wfc
7:03 That's called the triceratops's frill. All Ceratopidae ( the group that the triceratops belonged to) have frills. Just letting you know.
He looks really cool, I can't wait to see their Grimlock. Just when Starscream thought he was free, he gets thrown right back in to the pit. HA HA HA. Anyway great review emgo keep up the good work.
*at the end*
"Get back in there!"
It's sad that the 3rd party toys are better than the official release
Caboose The freelancer not really if you think about it, it would make complete since that they look better than hasbro, because the third party figures has more money and engineering put into their figures, but to compensate for that the figures are also expensive
Quinton Dorsey what you said makes sense. How expensive are you talking though?
Hundred dollars minimum.
Well Hasbro is lame
what about Takara?
"Excuse me."
Haha🤣🤣
luv your reviews man, you always have a funny skit, "there's a Disney movie in there somewhere" lol
And thus, EmGo's dinobot army keeps growing.
To quote Emgo:"Gimme more dinobot!Gimme more!Gimme more!and BTW I almost spelled Dion(hint reference hint hint).
I really hope after they do grimlock that they do some more foc/wfc figures.
like the aerial bots
Iron hide and ratchet would be awesome
I think they should just do every single character even bruticus and tripticon
+JaZzPrIme74 even those characters that weren't seen in the campaign like: dead end hound breakdown (but we saw breakdown in wfc) and all those guys even like Zeta prime. Now those guys all would be awesome!
+JaZzPrIme74 I agree I think Planet X should do more figures after the Dino bots. I bet if they make a FOC Optimus he would be better then the hasbro one.

Thanks for the review emgo loving these third part reviews and all I can say is I can't wait for planet X's Vulcan (Grimlock)
Love the message at the end, love all your videos my friend!
Should've had Leonidas shout "This is Spartacon!" lol
The guns are the EMP shotgun.
Snarl has scatter blaster and Sludge has the photon burst rifle I do believe.
I want Planet X to make insecticons
+Hayden McClure me tooooo
Hayden McClure they are now FINALLY
It’s out for sale now
They did
"This piece" is called its frill.
+TheHiddenSquid ah, thank you.
LOL at 7:33 the card shows his STENGTH at 6, can't unsee that typo
im sooo glad you knew about the swords almost all the other reviews on this guy just leave them in the sheaths when they have him hold the swords
One of these days the intro skit thing is going to be mascot riding grimlock holding aoe Optimus' sword
at 8:18 the doorbell rung and that was such a coincidence or that's the first time I've heard/seen it happen XD
I’d love it they made Dinobot Slash in this style.
The thing on the triceratops head is called a frill it's like armor for his neck.
Seeing these skits at the end of your vids is starting to make me want to make some of my own.
Most of the FOC dinobots are on bigbadtoystore if you haven't already gotten them.
The guns are actually shotguns from the first game, that for some reason have some kind of scope on them?
Woot, Mine arrived today and already get to see him on your reviews :D
I wonder what a Planet X warpath would be like
the way you can store the guns gives him smoke-stacks
Slag's frill becomes a blast shield when folded out.
I think PX Vulcan (Grimlock) is actually available for purchase on BBTS.
With so many third-party Dinobots would you be willing to do a video and compare I've been wanting to buy one full set of third-party Dinobots and I'm just not sure which set to get because there are so many
Hey emgo...great review as always... really enjoyed the end.....lol.....very funny......laughed every time....
The toy that fights back
Great ending to the skit Emgo.
it's called a frill they use it to protect its neck
Evan Mcgee you could put it like that but the frill was actually used to scare of predators
Onde você compra estás figuras
emgo you are my hero in reviews
+alkotob abboode thanks very much
Hey can some 1 explain why Planet X made these 'code names' for the dinobots like vulcun, Neptune, etc.
copyright
emgo love ur videos very cool wish i had all those transformers there awesome im a huge collector
i want these guys but in that web site some are sold out how do i get complete set ? on that web site all they have are the ones from age of extinction i want the ones shown in this video
Robert Hoff same and there over expensive
I found most of them in my local comic/collectible show called Frank and Sons here in California. Try going to some local comic/sci-fi events, shows or even swap meets. Maybe some toy shops.

Hope that helps and good luck finding these dinobots ! :) I still need a few but hopefully I'll have them all.
Robert Hoff
Emgo you must really like Dinobots, mascot is probably losing his little bionicle mind over the over abundance of robot dinosaurs LOL
I think the gun he comes with is a null ray from wfc
love the figure and all but (this doesn't bother me) the head sculpt seems a little off, but still love the mold
Those are the nucleon charge rifle
Or sniper rifle in fall of cybertron
It's not a screen accurate version of the gun
27:27
The day that starscream finally shut up
What do you tipe to findit on big bad
Where'd you find that combiner wars version of Optimus Prime? Cause all the images I've seen doesn't show him with those details.
Is Planet x making Grimlock?
+NEOKaijuu X yes they are.
I really hope planet x makes the combaticons and bruticus
Paddles...the sea component of the perfect team
I don't know why the sheaths for the swords blew my mind....I'm weird if you haven't noticed
Hey emgo. Planet X Dino's, or fansproject Dino's? I'm contemplating which ones to get.
I'm not emgo, but it really just depends on what version of the dinobots you like more. If you prefer the G1 designs over who they looked in FoC, then go with the Fansprojects, but if you prefer the reverse, then go with Planet X.
I wonder how long before Hasbro starts making FOC Dinobot figures in response to these Third Party figures.
Too long. lol
100 to 200 years
you are one funny guy!I thinks there's a job opening for best Hasbro joker.You interested?
+Jman92854 well you have to understand that not everyones brain works the same way when it comes to puzzle play like transformers.

There should also be a Planet X King ( FOC Grimlock )
+Lakkshya Gupta There is, but it's called Vulcun.
I know you most likely wont read this, but have you considered using Planet X's Omega Supreme toy as a comparison with their others, or just transformer toys in general?

Thanks for replying, I can understand that. I just thought he was a cool figure.
Hey emgo, when are you going to post a toy review of transformers masterpiece grimlock?
So what Planet X is going call their not grimlock
its everyday bro with the DISNEY CHANNEL FLOW
The guns are the Null rays not from this game but the first one
some one correct me if im wrong
They are the EMP Shotguns from WFC, but they added scopes to them, the game version doesn't have that scope.
I know that you said this was the best Planet X toy overall, but what (in your opinion) is the best Planet X dinobot. Also which is your favorite
the Palnet X figure are cool, but i love soooo much the Perfect Effect figure!!!!
I know that in G1, he was called Slag, but honestly, I do like the name "Slug" better. Kinda sounds a bit more gruff, especially for someone who turns into a robot Triceratops. But, that's just me.
I love slag
Alex Ahart Okay. Cool! Like whichever name you prefer.
Slug does sound better. Though I could see why some people prefer slag because it's his g1 name.
Haha! In response to your cat medication comment, Slug looks kinda pet-like.
I would love a Quirinus.
LOL and the King, 'kicks' again lol
who is paddles?
Don't care about Paddles? HOW DARE YOU!
+Benbot oh, I dare.
WHOS PADDLES
I love me some plesiosaurs!
+Nolan Baker Paddles is the plesiosaur dinobot
+emgo316 foc dinobots is my favorite design for them. what is your favorite dionbots designs ?
OPEN!!!...OPEN!!!....OPEN
It’s like a 5 year old at the dentist
OPEN YOUR MOUTH!!!
Lol I can't stop laughing when your trying to open his mouth not trying to be mean or nothing and you inspired me to to transformers figure reviews keep up your good work bro and I'll give you a shout out bro
0:15 Yes, Mascot. Yes there is.
You know emgo starscream is gonna keep transform into jet and fly wherever he does and second nice part of leo prime kick him
I cant wait for planet x grimlock to come out
im sure that the spikes could draw blood if anyone just shoved it in their flesh
Som what do you do with all these Transformers?
When hasbro does a good job at making toys
I kinda wish my Slag figure's transformation was more like this.
Just got mine- awesome figure!!
Hey guys I need y'all help shd I display these dinobots in robot mode or dino mode???
both, buy the set twice ;)
+Far Out Alan I don't hv that much money and besides there isn't anymore of these guys left to buy so I would hv to get them from ppl who have already used them

Don't you guys remember they changed his name to slug because it was not appropiate for a transformer
how long did it take to arrive
I don't remember
his shoulder pads look like a rhinoceros and nice reveiw !!!
The rifles are called Sniper Rifles like you called them.
does anyone know what the guns are called, I think they're from WFC but they remind me of the Nucleon Charge Rifle from FOC and here is the link to the FOC weapon im talking about: transformers-fall-of-cybertron.fandom.com/wiki/Nucleon_Charge_Rifle
Hey man. Great stuff. Do you plan on doing Vulcun? I have the figure and it's great. I just would like to hear what you think
I am interested in getting him
I was just watching the vid regularly then i got to the dino head articulation and...............
HE'S A DEMON, DEMON SPACE DINOSAUR!!!!!!!
