This article is about the Power Core Combiners character. For the Generation 1 character, see Mudslinger (G1).
Mudslinger is an Decepticon Commander from the Power Core Combiners series.
Great during debates.

Mudslinger is not an "ultimate force of evil." In fact he was the sort of robot who might have gone over to either side in the war. Perhaps if things had gone differently he'd be an Autobot now, but the choice was made long ago, and he's not one to second guess. Mudslinger lives for action. He has no patience for contemplation or compromise. And peace is just as dull and beneath him. He has decided that the Autobot interest in these things is pathetic, mincing weakness. Now, with his new drone troops, he has the power to show them just how tough he is.

Toys

Power Core Combiners

  • Mudslinger with Destructicons (Commander Class, 2010)
    • Accessories: Armored Junker Drone, Armored Truck Drone, Dune Buggy Drone, Heavy Hauler Drone
Part of the second wave of Power Core Combiners 5-Packs, Mudslinger is a Scout-sized monster truck of indeterminate model. He also has a "power-up" mode where he becomes the torso of a super robot, capable of using any auto-transforming Power Core Combiner drone-machines for limbs. He comes with his four Destructicon drone-vehicles.
Despite how tough his bio says he is, there are reports of some Mudslingers having fragile thigh joints. Specifically, the upper leg swivel's slot is ever so slightly smaller than the peg it fits around, causing it to crack or even shatter when used too often, especially when under the weight of being combined. Unlike Double Clutch, sadly, no running change to compensate has happened.
This mold was also used to make Salvage.
