Transformers: Age of Extinction Deluxe Dinobot Slash

Vehicle Mode: I love Slash’s Velociraptor mode.  The only unfortunate thing is that some of his soft yellow parts looks more link feathers or foliage than spikes, especially the ones on his back.  It’s not a major thing because everything else about his dinosaur mode is awesome.

Robot Mode: I really like his robot mode, but the hell is with those ferns growing out of his knees?  They looks ridiculous.  It’s a shame, because he is otherwise fantastic.

Overall: He is worth it for the dinosaur mode alone, so I highly recommend him.

Thanks for reading!

    Yes, but the ones that are in the movie are entirely metalic and inorganic. It makes no sense for an inorganic robotic dinosaur to have feathers which are by definition organic. Not to mention that none of them look exactly liek any dinosaur. I’m sure Hasbro was thinking about feathers when they did it, but it still makes no sense.

    Well, only raptors have feathers, and Slash wasn’t in the movie.

    I know, but I’ve seen the movie four times and I don’t see ANY feathers on the Dinobots.

    The “spikes” are supposed to look like feathers. Scientist discovered that many dinosaurs in the raptor family had feathers.
