Studio Series 86-15 Leader Class The The Movie 1986 Dinobot Sludge Action Figure, Ages 8 and Up, 8.5-inch

Probably my favorite dinobot of the set. He’s pretty large and is incredibly posable. Transformation is pretty fun but at times the front of his body doesn’t want to tab in. But otherwise he’s great he looks amazing with the other dinobots from SS86.

Let me start by saying that I grew up in the 80’s. I use the phrase “grew up” as a generic description of physical size, not as a statement of maturity. I am a middle age adult and I love Transformers. I really love Transformers When I saw they were bringing back remakes of the 1985 cartoon movie characters, particularly the Dinobots, I was in kid mode all over again. The Dinobots were and still are my favorites for many reasons. Now, with these newer larger figures, I feel like I can recapture what lost when I was young. I truly wished I still had my original Dinobots but those were destroyed in a house fire. Suffice to say that so far I am very pleased with this version Yes, I have the combiner one and the modern movie ones but these are more “raw” with a modern flare to them while maintaining the original stylings. As for the value and gift ability, these are a little high in cost, but they are bigger. As for gift ability, great for those who understand the premise and characters all though I would not recommend for real young people. The pieces are designed to come lose under pressure so that could be a chocking hazard. But I digress, amazing toy and I am anxious for the final two characters to be released. One interesting note, the makers are releasing them in the same order as the G1 cartoons. The last two were not created until a later first season episode. Stay safe everyone. Regards to all.

Figure was exactly as described shipped on time arrived on time satisfied with the purchase

When I first saw this release of Sludge I wasn't sure it was worth the cost, these things are expensive! After I got him and saw how big and detailed he is, I was very happy to pay the cost. This is what you always wanted your dinobots to be when you were a kid. Bigger and bulkier than the average Transformer, this guy is formidable. He is not easy to transform though, so I think the target here is more collectors than kids.

Overall I like. The kegs are not as strong as other diobots.

Great condition and product is nice and good

Classic 86 worth the money

Loving the size. This is what Sludge (my favorite Transformer since he first appeared) should always have been. Put him next to g1 Sludge and the difference is impressive. As others have noted the pieces seem to pop off kind of easy but that is almost expected with the new Transformer pieces. It is part of how they get the details and posability to work together. The “stage” is simple but pretty neat. My biggest disappointment so far is the lack of a sword but given how good he looks in brontosaurus mode I can live with that. Second would have been easy to fix. The tab on his hip is too small for the gun handle.

Genial.

Item can in superb condition. Box was perfect for a misb collector like me.

The Dinobots were my favorite thing about Transformers as a kid and this figure doesn't disappoint. The figure is nice and big and beefy and looks great size wise against the Fall of Cybertron and Legacy series figures. The gun looks good. Dino mode mostly looks great. A couple spots during the transformation were a bit finicky bit once I got them figured out it goes a lot more smoothly now. The only downside I find is in dino mode. The toes of the robot mode sit under the belly and pretty much touch the surface of whatever the figure is standing on. Luckily there s a 3rd party kit to give him robot mode toes that will fold up into the dino models underside, but that is something Hasbro should have added to the figure itself

1/5 dinobots from the 1980s transformers cartoons, this figure is a mini masterpiece with cartoon accurate features and loads of articulation so can be posed in many ways

Knee and hip articulation is a bit too weak for my liking, not to the point that its toppling over randomly but its very noticeable. Everything else is perfect, and the box isn't even damaged.
