I already had my expectations high due to how incredible the previous two dinobots were, but this absolutely blew away my expectations. Considering that Sludge is my favorite dinobot, I couldn't be happier with how it turned out.
He’s my favorite too. But I think the figures have been fairly disappointing. Sure, the size and the textured details are great. But there’s just no comparison with the vintage figure. So much more interesting colors and pieces in the vintage dinobots. They really missed the opportunity to be creative in the use of different plastics and color applications. It’s just the same generic half-assed repackaged nostalgic Hasbro stuff to me. Nothing that particularly looks “COOL!”
You are right, the transformation is amazing. The engineers were on the top of their game on this one. I can't imagine how hard it is to engineer a single transformer to look cartoon accurate in both modes. But they did it. Stellar work by Takara/Hasbro.
My only nitpick is that, even if it meant sacrificing weapon storage, they should have had the robot toes fold up to fill in that cavity in the dino chest.
Or make the cavity into the weapon storage and then fold up the toes to cover the weapon. Of course that would mean the weapon needs to be broken into two parts, but that should be able to fill up the cavity nicely.
The chest highlights are actually first really detailed and shown in the season 2 episode desertion of the Dinobots. When Carly fixed them in the work pits on cybertron. Looks amazing overall
Another must have for my collection of the 86 studio series figures especially the Dinobots. I got Grimlock and Slag so definitely getting Sludge, Swoop and Snarl
This guy looks awesome. I do wish he came with his G1 sword, especially as he doesn't have a little figure with him. Not sure why none of the D-bots have their melee weapons. They are such brutal characters that guns seem too hands-off for them. I will definitely be picking him up if I get the chance though. Thanks for the review!!!
Since these are based on their cartoon appearances (primarily the '86 movie) it makes sense. From memory the only time the swords were ever depicted on-screen was one scene in "War of the Dinobots" (S01E10) when Snarl was holding his, and even then he was just standing idle with it. Otherwise they're just a hold-over of the original toy being a repackaged Diaclone.
Great detailed informative video. I finally did this for my lazy 11 year old who couldn't do this himself. It took me only 10 minutes following your steps!
He looks incredible! It would be a big mistake BIG if HasTak did Snarl and Swoop in voyager class. All Dinobots should be equal, i.e. in leader class! PS I forgive them for giving him a short tail.
@@qwerty5684 this is Hasbro we're talking about. Including the swords, plus the extra paint, articulation and complexity, would make Swoop a Commander class in their eyes
My POTP Dinobots are combined up, with some extra parts to make a improved look, thou I hate the offical name for that because it sounds stupid and doesn't really reflect the Dinobots, thus I refer to mine as the "GrimKaiser!!"
Very excited to add this to my team of Dinobots. I am concerned with your comment that Snarl and Swoop my just to Voyager Class. Swoop MAY be able to get away with it if they make him a Larger Voyager similar to Kingdom Cyclonus - but Snarl needs to be a big boy like these 3 IMO. I am SUPER happy I did not engage in 3rd party Dinobots as these are fantastic.
For the week ratchet joints I found them to be a simple fix. I just jammed some scrap plastic sheet into the gap in the ratchet nub piece. It keeps the nub from pushing in too far and increases the resistance
As awesome as this is, the little note you said about snarl being a voyager class is lingering in my head. I think it makes sense for swoop, but why oh why would snarl be smaller than the others
I was hoping sludgy would be at least 20% bigger than grimlock. He’s a brontosaurus after all. I’ll call him littlefoot; can’t wait for petrie and spike.
this is amazing see Transformers Studio Series 86 Dinobots Grimlock & Slag in leader Class and now 86 dinobot Sludge And can't wate for it to come out in summer 2022 in store
Sludge is even better than I could’ve imagined I do wish like with Grimlock & Slug that the swords were included wheelie and spike were completely unnecessary especially they’ve been made into there own core class figures can’t wait for snarl & swoop I hope the DINOBOT LINE Remains in the leader class even if they are smaller than the other 3 🔥video review btw 💯💯💯
This is definitely the best dinobot so far. My only compliant is minor, its how the robot feet stick out his dino belly. Grimlock has my biggest complaint with his horrible fat/stubby tail. I'm sure we will get Swoop. I hope we get Snarl.
@@kingwill4497 Yea some shots are like that but my ideal Grimlock tail is the MP tail. I feel best Grimlock T-Rex is MP and best robot is SS. (This opinion includes comparing with the 3rd party Giga and FT Grimlocks) Giga and FT are more comic/artist liberty designs to me while while MP and SS are more G1 cartoon.
I disagree with a smaller swoop making sense. In the cartoon Swoop was around the same height to all 5 should be leaders. Swoop can be thinner but smaller nah.
I can't wait to see how they make Snarl. Of all the dinobots he was the one I am least familiar with as I never got to play with him growing up but had the others.
I’m not sure if they will make Snarl considering he wasn’t in the movie. I hope they do because he’s my favorite along with Swoop. Sludge looks amazing and thanks for the review.
Snarl and swoop will be voyagers? And IF we even get them at all? This is bummer news, indeed. The dinobots are far and away my favorite figures in recent years and it will be criminal if they don't all get the same treatment
In robot mode, Sludge looks fantastic. Really great! Once he's in dinosaur mode however, I notice two major problems. The feet from robot mode drag the ground. This isn't a difficult problem to fix if you're the designer of the figure. The second problem is that the tail seems out of proportion in comparison to the neck. Again, it wouldn't have been a problem to design better. I'm not a perfectionist, but these problems scream at me as I look at Sludge in dinosaur mode.
The tail really isn’t noticeable in hand honestly. As for the feet, they are definitely an eye sore if you don’t have the gun attached which is a shame :(
@Joe Flood I AGREE; but you have to give it to hasbro the opposite end transformation was completely unexpected!! I'll give them some slack due to that; this will be the 3rd sludge I own once he comes out...lol
Epic review PrimeVsPrime!!!!!!!! Sludge looks beyond amazingly fantastic. I thought he was going to be a retool of Slag, just like the Power of the Primes figure, but this SS86 Sludge figure is INCREDIBLE!!!! Fingers crossed that Swoop and Snarl get revealed soon. Keep on being amazing.
Sludge is Awesome and I cannot wait until I can add him to my studio series 86 Grimlock and Slag/slug, When Snarl & Swoop are created they should also be leader class and the same size as the original three Dinobots even though Swoop will most likely lack bulk he was still the same height as the other Dinobots. When I was a kid when the Dino bots came out they were my first transformers ever Grimlock it was the first one I bought With my allowance money and then I got all the others and right after the Dinobots I got the three insectacon
Yes i love all the Dinobots. Sludge looks great. Compared to Power of the Primes Sludge, he is so much more Awesome. The size difference is huge. Love it.
I love this. So happy they put in some time and care to these gems. They absolutely deserve to be this well designed and at this size and scale. I've been waiting for this since I was a kid walking out of the movie theatre . Hopefully I can get my hands on two of these and am looking forward to the next two but Sludge is my favorite and looks bad a%#.... Oh yeah...I don't care what Hasbro say's.....there is no Slug! It is and always will be Slag!!!
@@taqresu5865 No, it was that "slag" is a recent trendy bad word in the United Kingdom is what I heard so they wanted to be globally politically correct. SMH
I hope the rumors about swoop and snarl being a smaller size are wrong, but they were always a little smaller i guess. I wish they'd do the whole series like this. I love the transformation and the fierce Dino head!
Based on real history of dinosaurs, the Stegosaurus(Snarl) and Pteranadon(Swoop) were smaller dinosaurs compared to the Brontosaurus(Sludge), Triceratops(Slag) and Tyrannosaurus Rex(Grimlock). The same size differences among them were that way in the G1 Cartoon.
Just got this at my local Walmart for $27 slightly damaged box but everything inside and only one slightly loose part the flaps on the back but it’s not crazy loose I’m very happy with it it looks bad ass
I'm actually hoping that HASBRO will also make a new much larger Slash figure too. That Dinobot character's toy debut a few years ago wasn't very good.
I plan on getting these studio series g1 dinobots I have a big giga power Grimlock and two female dinobots with the g1 colors they would fit in well especially when I paint on those detailed parts not colored.
They look so good together. "I'm pleased with the dinobots, Spike! I think I'll have Wheeljack and Ratchet build two more!" -Optimus Prime, War of the Dinobots. (nudge nudge Hasbro)
Hmmm I kinda wish he had a longer neck, he should be like the biggest of the dinobots since he's a sauropod. Still, he does look very good and I'm still gonna get him on sight.
Snarl? A Voyager? Bah! If they don't make him a leader class, that would be a genuine crime. I can see Swoop as a voyager, because his wingspan would make him LOOK leader size. But Snarl? He has to be as big as Slag/Slug and the others. If they don't make him leader size, then I'm going to have to keep Iron Dibot "Sever" on the shelf with the others.
8am Sunday morning in New Zealand and WOW what a fun review. BRAVO!!! I definitely want Sludge but am unsure how I would display. I usually go for Robot mode but Sludge shows more personality as a Brontosaurus. I had a bit of a heart attack when you said Snarl and Swoop won't be Leader Class? Pteradon and Stegosaurus and Triceratops had a length of 30 feet or 9 metres so it makes sense to scale them all together. They weren't ever smaller in animation. On Snarl I hope they break the standard design format to give him a tail that lifts just the same as Sludge's neck.... in the series he often lifted his weaponised golden tail like a scorpian to blast attack sun light as he was powered by clean solar energy. Last night a friend dropped off studio series Slag to me... I'm super happy. We are in the golden ages of Transformers. Brings me joy.
Did I hear you say there won't be a leader class swoop or snarl? it'd be great if they did. It'd be awesome to have a full set of dinobots in leader class.
I absolutely love your videos there just so good. Your the reason I love transformers and are still getting them. Also, How much figures do you think you have?
I hope your rumor is incorrect...Snarl is my favorite dinobot and I've been excited since they started this line to get a truly great version of him. I can see doing swoop in a voyager but not snarl.
Sludge was such a fantastic Dinobot so far because he has more articulation than Grimlock and Slug when Sludge turn into Brontosaurus mode 😊. I will try my best to collect all Studio series 86 movie Dinobots because all of them was a best looking Transformers and one more thing, i am biggest fan of Dinosaur, so, i want to collect all Studio series 86 movie Dinobots, that's why 😊. Thank you for reviewing this awesome Transformers figure, PrimevsPrime ☺️.
Great review Prime!!! I have preordered mine and i cant wait to get him! His transformation mechanic is even more advanced, a really great figure! I am so happy that you managed to make a full review, well done mate!
This is the review I was waiting for before I forked over my money on pre-order. Never have I done that before because I have seen the product come in on review channels being not to what was shown on the protype and the model showcase to get consumers to pre-order. I would have preferred a longer tail but do to transformation I get it. If it had the ability to do a sleep of the opponents legs it would have been more impressive.
Just finally got mine today. Super unimpressed with the way they handled having the dino head come as a separate piece, just to save space in the crappy packaging.. Looks good, but too wobbly in the wrong places, and also too tight in the wrong places. Glad to have it either way, since I have never had a Sludge figure before.
I liked that the Dinobots are getting the Leader class. I mean sure voyager wouldn't be bad but Leader just make it awesome! I mean Grimlock always get the big treatment! I know he is king but his faithful followers shouldn't be tiny compared to him!
Though I didn't bought the FT & Gigapower ones but I'm totally impressed with Hasbro all SS86 Dinobots figures. Can't wait to buy Sludge & hopefully Snarl & Swoop faster sell please 🙏🏼
My 2 SS Dinobots suck Grimlocks chest and arms won't stay locked in place when in robot mode.Slags panels come off very easily when I transform him.I just hope my Sludge will be of better quality.
He looks amazing! I cannot wait to get one in hand. I am so glad they dropped the trash mini figure accessory with Sludge. Regarding something you mentioned offhand midway through: I don't mind the idea of Swoop as a voyager class release... but Snarl? I hope we do get one, and 🤞 he is leader class.
The only thing I don't like is the robot feet in Dino mode. It doesn't look right how the stomach just suddenly drops down at a 90 degree angle. If the could have made them flip forward to fill in the hollow gap it would fix the toe problem and the hollow gap.
Can't wait for Sludge's release. He's my favourite Dinobot and definitely my most anticipated figure. Would love to see someone recreate the moment where Devastator hits Sludge so hard his eyes pop out for a moment.
This transformation is way difficult. I was having so much trouble with the tail, I had to push down the black leg joints from the inside mid transformation to make it where it would tab together
I already had my expectations high due to how incredible the previous two dinobots were, but this absolutely blew away my expectations. Considering that Sludge is my favorite dinobot, I couldn't be happier with how it turned out.
He’s my fave too!!😊🥳

@@thepkeezy even this one?
Me too! He's such a cute little guy
I can't wait to see how they will make snarl and swoop, seeing how good sludge, slag and grimlock were, I bet snarl and swoop will be awesome
Snarl's appearance in the movie was more of a blooper than actually being in the movie, so would they have him in Studio 86?
@@JoybuzzerX They probably would because it will be weird to have 1 dinobot in another line. If not though it would definitely be in Legacy
@@i_likemen5614 my thoughts exactly.

Yes the underside of the dino mode looks awful. Big hollow space then the gun sticking out of the chest. Very bad design.

Great review Prime!!! I have preordered mine and i cant wait to get him! His transformation mechanic is even more advanced, a really great figure! I am so happy that you managed to make a full review, well done mate!
This is the review I was waiting for before I forked over my money on pre-order. Never have I done that before because I have seen the product come in on review channels being not to what was shown on the protype and the model showcase to get consumers to pre-order. I would have preferred a longer tail but do to transformation I get it. If it had the ability to do a sleep of the opponents legs it would have been more impressive.
He's a big figure. Just got him today. Very nice.
Can't wait for the reprolabels for this guy.
I can't wait to get this! Thanks for the review as always PrimeVsPrime!
Thanks so much for watching!
Swoop is my favorite dinobot, and can't wait for him to get an SS 1986 figure!
Huge fan of your videos just bought slug and arcec the dinobots are the best
This figure looks great.. I can't wait to add it to my display.
I can't unsee the fact that without his pointy thing his head sculpt is literally megatrons head
Just finally got mine today. Super unimpressed with the way they handled having the dino head come as a separate piece, just to save space in the crappy packaging.. Looks good, but too wobbly in the wrong places, and also too tight in the wrong places. Glad to have it either way, since I have never had a Sludge figure before.
Man studio series never ceases to amaze me transformers have come a long way in 40years
No weird looking Spike?
So a rise in price and less product in the box?
they could have made the gun fold in half and store in the hollow cavity, but it still has good weapons storage.
I liked that the Dinobots are getting the Leader class. I mean sure voyager wouldn't be bad but Leader just make it awesome! I mean Grimlock always get the big treatment! I know he is king but his faithful followers shouldn't be tiny compared to him!
I haven't been able to fine the other 2 dinobots at retail. I have only seen grimlock but didn't have the money at the time.
The funny thig about this toy is the fact that its the only accurate ss86 dinobot figure imo
Right, I wanted Slug but I can not stand the hind hollow legs in dinosaur mode. Also I am not paying more for that Daniel plastic doll.
@@DominusTecum316 that waffle Daniel is revolting lol
@@DominusTecum316 I just got Slag last night. He's still MIB here in New Zealand. I hate his weak back legs but he looks so great as a Robot
Though I didn't bought the FT & Gigapower ones but I'm totally impressed with Hasbro all SS86 Dinobots figures. Can't wait to buy Sludge & hopefully Snarl & Swoop faster sell please 🙏🏼
My 2 SS Dinobots suck Grimlocks chest and arms won't stay locked in place when in robot mode.Slags panels come off very easily when I transform him.I just hope my Sludge will be of better quality.
No figures will ever compete with this “mini masterpiece”
The Dinobots are in a league of their own for sure!
He looks amazing! I cannot wait to get one in hand. I am so glad they dropped the trash mini figure accessory with Sludge. Regarding something you mentioned offhand midway through: I don't mind the idea of Swoop as a voyager class release... but Snarl? I hope we do get one, and 🤞 he is leader class.
Snarl and Swoop in a Commander class 2pack
The only thing I don't like is the robot feet in Dino mode. It doesn't look right how the stomach just suddenly drops down at a 90 degree angle. If the could have made them flip forward to fill in the hollow gap it would fix the toe problem and the hollow gap.
Can't wait for Sludge's release. He's my favourite Dinobot and definitely my most anticipated figure. Would love to see someone recreate the moment where Devastator hits Sludge so hard his eyes pop out for a moment.
I'm stuck between buying this or triple changer sandstorm, I can't choose! 😅
My favorite dinosaur and favorite looking Dinobot. HATE the tail tho.
It would have been nice if they could have found a way to fold the feet where they would fill in the hole on the underside of the dino mode.
Yes absolutely agree!
Sweet now if we can just get studio 86 style Snarl & Swoop we'll all be set!!
They are great! It’s gonna be sweet to have all 5!
🥳MY FAVORITE DINOBOT, YAY!!!😍🥰😍
An automatic pre-ordere...just waiting for that call to pick it up
Maybe could've had those robot toes flip up into that cavity.
It's like the made a Ferrari but didn't bother with the passenger door ...
Thanks for posting! I'm definitely going to pick one up!!!
Awesome Review PvP!^^
Really Love what Hasbro did with the SS86 Dinobots and i can't wait for Swoop and Snarl!
There is no such thing as a "brontosaurus" it is a common misconception, it is actualy an apatosaurus
It’s named both. Many dinosaur encyclopedias have stated as such
This transformation is way difficult. I was having so much trouble with the tail, I had to push down the black leg joints from the inside mid transformation to make it where it would tab together
