Here's the final member of my
Transformers Dinobots-inspired Mando warriors known as the Mythosaur Squad. Introducing Sludge.
The Mythosaur Squad has a reputation as a bunch of dim-witted but highly effective ass-kickers. While the assumption of their intelligence may not necessarily be true...in the case of Sludge, it's actually an understatement. He's as dumb as a box of hydrospanners. He makes his teammates look like geniuses by comparrison. His being both dumb and VERY large leave team Commander Gromlock little choice in how to utilize him. He simply points him in the direction of the target, says "We hate them. Sludge make them go away", and Sludge happily trudges into battle wielding a very big vibro-axe and an even BIGGER heavy rotary blaster. A thermal detonator tossed from his collection hanging from his belt is his favorite way to end a conversation. He's also got a vehicle-grade flamethrower on his left arm and a concussion grenade launcher on his right.
As the final member of my team, I had a hard time figuring out what fig to use for the base body. His
Transformers insipation transformed into a Brontosaurus...and left me no way to tag visual clues onto the fig. Swoop was easy 'cause of his wings and head crest. Likewise Slag with his helmet horns. I deceided to go with the new Spacetrooper sculpt, as it's huge...much like a brontosaurus would be. Sludge's bio on tfwiki.net describes him as stomping around, and the Spacetrooper looks made to stomp around.
