Was Slammer ever confirmed to be the G1 metroplex tank, or was it just assumed to be repaint of Warpath?
Because thinking about it, if there's no actual confirmation, the name easily fits a number of dinosaurs, such as a fossilizer Ankylosaurus or Pachycephalosaurus.

IIRC The Slammer rumour very specifically said Warpath repaint.

[Toph]

I thought so, thanks.

Vertebreak is core class too

I meant in terms of wee versions of the larger fellas. But that is also true, yes.

[Philip Ayres]

The Core Class has a slightly schizophrenic feel to it with smaller characters, downsized characters and Fosilisers in it.... though it appears Vertebreak's fossilisation is limited to his tail coming off!

F.O.S.S.I.L.

-ralph

[Toph]

First:
That is not a raptor. Not every bipedal animal that doesn't drag it's tail is a raptor, Hasbro Marketing. There are more dinosaurs than "T-rex," "Raptor," "Brontosaurus", Stegosaurus, "Triceratops," and "Pterodactyl" (always attributed to Pteranodon).
It's a dracorex.

Second:
I was wondering if Vertebreak came apart. It looked like it transformed without partsforming, amd I couldn't actually tell what parts did come off. If it could transform without partsforming, but still came apart to arm others where the deluxe Paleotrex couldn't, seemed a lot for a $10 toy to accomplish.

Third:
Warpath is the only one that acknowledges fossilizer compatibility.

That flocking is interesting in concept and would make a nifty curiosity piece, but I can't see that aging well (though I have zero experience with flocked toys), and I'd also rather have a better paint deco for the cost.

[Philip Ayres]

Fortunately we have an expert on flocking toys in the house - blueshift - and his attention has been drawn to Flocktimus Primal

Looks like a low quality jpeg to me, no flocking.

[The Doctor]

Yeah, I can't see any flocking on that.

Preorder for Warpath has gone in. I need to see more of Cyclonus before I make a call there.

[Stomski]

I'm all for homages, but why bother having something representing a fake spider head as BA's crotch if it's not needing to be animation model representative?

[The Huff]

I like Blackarachnia's little tashe.

[Shockprowl]

Shit. That Warpath tank mode looks EXACTLY like G1 Warpath.

[Pinwig]

He's bitten, chaps! Let's reel him in!

[Shockprowl]

NO! NNNOOOOOOO!!!!

BECAUSE THEN I'LL HAVE TO UP-GRADE ALL MY MINI-AUTOBOTS!!!!

FATIGUE!!! COLLECTOR'S FATIGUE SATURATION!!!

[Pinwig]

Don't let him get away! Llama, get the net!

Who'd have thought the Warpath bait would be what got him!

I love Clawjaw, I have the pink one.
