ToyWorld's second Dinobot entry based on Autobot Sludge. Like their first entry, Roar, Muddy has a strong and menancing look, but lacks to the same sense of balance and articulation. It can be a bit tricky to make it stand, and the shoulders do not have as much lateral range of motion. Those are my two gripes about it, but it does have tight joints and an overall great look on both bot and alternate mode.
Alternate Mode:
Muddy's brontosaurus mode has a nice classic look. Would have liked for the neck to have been articulated, but it's no big deal. What was bothersome was the front shoulder joints being loose. I was able to tighten them though.
The modern classic look looks really good in both modes. There was some poor paint apps on my figure. Particularly the silver portions on the waist. The blaster is nice, but not great, and the sword could have been bigger, but it's size intentional so it can fit in the neck in alt mode.
Tansformation:
Like Roar, simple and intuitive. Be careful when splitting the bot's back 'wings'. They are tightly help together and can feel like they may break.
Notes: Muddy's cannon is usually stored on the chest in dino mode, but I prefer it on the side. I made another simple diorama with the top portion of the styrofoam packaging to compliment the one I made with Roar.
