'''Sledge''' is unswervingly loyal and unfailingly destructive. Both qualities endeared him to [[Megatron (disambiguation)|Megatron]], who gave him his combination abilities and his nasty [[Mini-Con]] partner, [[Throttler]], as a reward.<ref>Sledge's on-package [[bio]] [http://www.seibertron.com/images/toys/files/128/sledge-007.jpg (scan on Seibertron.com)]</ref>

*'''Sledge with Throttler''' (Commander Class, 2010)

: Part of the second wave of ''Power Core Combiners'' Commander-Class 2-packs, Sledge is a Scout-size robot that transforms into a rockwheel trencher construction vehicle with a spinning saw-blade. He can also transform to "power-up" mode, a robot torso which can then attach Power Core drone units as limbs. Unlike other Commanders, Sledge does not have a second head for his power-up mode; instead, he has faces on opposite sides of his head (much like [[Punch (G1)|Punch]]) with armor pieces that hinge to cover the face not currently in use. In robot mode, Sledge has [[5mm post|5mm ports]] on the underside of his forearms, allowing him to hold compatible weapons, such as his pack-in Mini-Con partner Throttler in drill mode.

: During the period between [[December 26]] 2010 and [[January 31]] 2011, Hasbro ran their "[[Supercharge Your Holidays]]" promotion: for every $20 spent on Hasbro-branded product, customers could receive a free, random product from a list provided by Hasbro. Among the items on the list was "Transformers Combiners & Speed Stars Mini Vehicle". According to [http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=75487 this discussion thread on Allspark.com], Sledge with Throttler was one of the figures distributed.

==Notes==
* Due to the vague continuity of the ''Power Core Combiners'' line, it's possible that he is the same character as ''[[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]]'' [[Sledge (G1)|Sledge]]. Or he could just be another guy who's kind of like him... which isn't saying much in Sledge's case, since Decepticon construction vehicles who like breaking stuff aren't exactly rare. The specific identity of the Megatron who commands him is likewise ambiguous.
