Thanks to 2005 Boards member ApocalypseThruster for sharing in our boards, photographic proof of his sighting of the new Transformers Cyberverse Ultra Class Dinobot Sludge Found at US Retail.
This is another entry in our unexpected Cyberverse sightings. Sludge is a completely new mold featuring the “Energon Armor” gimmick of the Ultra class toys. It was found at a Ross store Ross in College Grove Drive, California.
Happy hunting!

I would assume so. Probably as a Warrior, even if it's just retooling one of the jets.

Deluxe Slug and Grimlock, Ultra Sludge, and Warrior Snarl should all look pretty nice together (I've already got 3/4 of them and they make a good set so far). The real issue is whether we'll ever get any kind of Cyberverse Swoop other than the combining one.

I'd give you more thumbs if I could Nevermore – Thanks mate.
Jeez this breakdown is going to do my OCD head in.
I think I'm going from wanting to collect a set… to maybe passing

Thus far, all the Cyberverse Dinobots with the exception of Grimlock have been (semi-)exclusive to different price points.
Grimlock is seeing two older toys (Scout Class and Deluxe Class) re-released in "Dinobots Unite" packaging, plus there's the upcoming Roll & Combine Wheelgrim figure.

In addition, Grimlock already had various other toys released in the Cyberverse line (Ultra Class, Ultimate Class, Spark Armor Elite Class) that have thus far not been confirmed to be re-released.

Is this the only Sludge we're getting in Cyberverse, or are we getting a version similar to Slag and Snarl?

Going to my Ross on Monday to look.I do want sludge of course. $14.99 at Ross won\'t be bad at all.

If the listings are true I’d like to see SS86/Generations 2022 Leader Sludge first

That Sludge looks pretty decent honestly.
Roadblock1977
As have I, as I stated in my previous post.

I just ordered SLUDGE off of Amazon, too. Theres a Ross or two in Washington, but I hardly ever go there.
Venixion
I love Sludge
Houstonian Prime
ive yet to see this figure at regular retail, and its already showing up discounted at Ross, thats crazy. the news comes on the same day i received Sludge from Amazon for full price, and was next door to a Ross this morning. its been so long since ive seen any transformers at Ross, i gave up going in there a long time ago..

I don’t mind, I consider that a non-issue. I still need him PLUS I plan on getting a Maximal symbol Reprolabel for him (and Warrior Class Hammerbyte)

Skullcruncher is great and his armor is wonderfully goofy.
Sludge's art suggested it was similar, but the beast head was way smaller.
TFXProtector
My only complaint on Thunderhowl is that his hips don't really lock in place, it's the only major flaw he has.
prfctcellrulz
Ultra Class Clobber, Rack’N’Ruin, and Thunderhowl are still on my need list
TFXProtector
If they'd make more of the Ultras in the same manner as Clobber and Rack N' Ruin, I'd buy more of them. I realize the heads and waists don't turn, but they have a gimmick and they're otherwise articulated. The other Ultras that unposeable bricks are a no-go in my book. Shame. Looks like Sludge, here, is more akin to Clobber than the rest are. (Good thing.)
T-Hybrid
Marshalls was the only place I ever saw RTS Lugnut, as well as PCC Grimstone and Steamhammer.
As for Sludge? I got one off Amazon this week and he's not terrible, but he's weaker than the Armor Skullcruncher I have. The weapon is clever and I like his size compared to Snarl/Grimlock. But $15 seems like a better price than the $20 I paid.
Black Convoy
Yes! Thanks for sharing!!!
