The gimmick of this year's "Power of the Primes" theme is that the Transformers can join up with various "Prime Masters" to gain new powers. When you buy a Deluxe, Voyager, or Leader Class figure, it includes a card revealing the powers granted by one combination. Just one. Out of 12. So here's a list of all the powers Sludge can gain:
- Alchemist Prime
- Instantly knows the pressure required to flatten Decepticons.
- Alpha Trion
- Writes several million pages on the virtues of stomping.
- Amalgamous Prime
- Redistributes body mass to maximize striking power.
- The Fallen
- Uses seismic strength to shatter enemy cities.
- Liege Maximo
- Convinces foes to lay down for stomping.
- Micronus Prime
- Power-links to share his unbelievable strength.
- Nexus Prime
- Makes Volcanicus create earthquakes with each step.
- Onyx Prime
- Crushes Decepticon sparks on their journey back to Primus.
- Prima
- Grants allies courage equal in strength to his stomping.
- Quintus Prime
- Creates bots capable of fighting in any environment.
- Solus Prime
- Crafts a planet-sized simulation chamber so bots can train.
- Vector Prime
- Slows down time to keep up with his friends.
