Slug (originally Slag), the hot-headed Dinobot, blazes through the Transformers Generation 1 (G1) series and “Transformers: The Movie.” With his Triceratops transformation, Slug G1 figure roars with aggression. This page dives into his bio, appearances, and collectibles.
Bio: The Horned Hotshot
Slug is a Dinobot warrior in the Transformers G1 series, transforming into a silver and red Triceratops. Armed with a flame breath and energo-sword, he’s a temperamental bruiser who loves a fight, often clashing with Grimlock. His fiery spirit makes him a force of nature. In “Transformers: The Movie,” Slug survives the battle, charging into Season 3. For “Slug G1 bio” lovers, he’s the horned inferno of the Dinobots.
Appearances: Charging with Heat
Slug storms into Seasons 1-3 of the Transformers G1 series, debuting in “S.O.S. Dinobots” (Season 1, Episode 7). His aggression flares in “War of the Dinobots” (Season 2, Episode 25), challenging leadership. Watch his fiery charge below (credit: Transformers Dino Hub):

In “Transformers: The Movie,” Slug battles Unicron’s minions, surviving with the Dinobots. He appears in Season 3, like “Grimlock’s New Brain.” Here’s a screenshot from his movie clash (fair use, sourced from the G1 movie):
For “Slug G1 appearances,” his run burns bright.
Collection Info: Slug Figures to Ignite
Slug G1 figures are fiery treasures. The 1985 G1 Slag, with its Triceratops mode, is a classic—though its horns wear. The 2018 “Power of the Primes” Slug offers a blazing update. My collection includes:
- 1985 G1 Slag: Vintage, slightly scorched.
- Power of the Primes Slug: Hot and posable.

For “Slug G1 figure” collectors, these capture his fiery spirit.
Numerous members have had the opportunity to flip their apes for a profit. And this is potentially life-changing money we’re talking about. So those who hold are in it for the long-haul – with good reason. Apes, similar to Punks, have become a status symbol. With the added utility of being able to identify your fellow apes on social media, being an ape owner shows that you’re part of a 5,000+ member club. And aside from those within the crypto and NFT community, we’ve witnessed quite a few celebrities, including superstar Shawn Yue, Steph Curry, LaMelo Ball and more enter into the non-fungible space through the purchase of an ape.
I think it made me think about it more and really consider why I was choosing to add this to my NFT portfolio
It poses an interesting question for me on the avatar category – will people be willing to buy in, or does eating something change your “sniff” test on the believe-ability of the claims?
With the floor continuing to rise and interest reaching beyond the non-fungible community, we may see apes follow along the same path as Punks – that is, as a legacy project that helps define the NFT space.
It’s important to make the distinction between the two though, as one mapped out the rules (Punks) and one changed the game entirely (BAYC).
There’s also a little pouch to store the rollerballs, and a card with different inspirations as to how to blend them on your skin – but it’s foolproof. You can’t make a mess if you mix them all up.
Badger Beard Balm is perfect for the bearded gents in your life (is this everyone? beards are so trending). As Punks continued to moon throughout the first half of the year, and Punk derivative projects started to peter out, BAYC filled a demand for originality and substance within the collectible and art sections of the NFT market.
If you’re looking to get into the club, there is not time to waste!
Further, Punks are surely the gold standard for NFT projects, but what they lack in community, they make up for through ETH value far too high for most collectors to obtain even at floor prices. BAYC undoubtedly set a precedent for community based projects – and we’ve seen countless use its success as a template to follow in its footsteps.
