Slog is a Decepticon in the Generation 1 continuity family.
Slog-rhythmsofdarkness1

Sadly Slog realized that with Earth in ruins there wasn't anyone left to Trick-or-Treat.

Slog is one of the most refined and sophisticated Decepticons around. He was originally recruited to produce great works of art praising the glory and recording the rise of the great Decepticon Empire. Soon his masters discovered that he worked just as well in the battlefield as in a studio and like Buzzsaw before him, Slog became an artist of the warzone, carving Autobots into abstract modern art "masterpieces."

Slog might strike one as a grotesque monster given his artwork, but infact he really fights only when he must to stay alive and tries to make each fallen foe a work of art to honor their memory. Not a warrior at heart, Slog likes the wild abandon of creating destructive art from non-living material but is troubled by the lives lost in the Autobot/Decepticon conflict. It was this troubled spirit that lead to the founding of the Slogism movement. The utilization of his work by the Autobots and his general doubts about the cause have put him on the outs with his superiors.

Presumably, Crosswise would be hunting him.

Like Windcharger before him, Slog wields a powerful magnetic ability that he can use to manipulate and tear other robots apart.

He can combine with his fellow Monster Pretenders to form Monstructor.






Fiction

Marvel Comics continuity.

Generation 1

In an alternate future where the Decepticons had conquered much of Earth, Slog and his fellow Pretender Monsters were led by Galvatron to the remains of New York City in an attempt to root out the last remaining vestiges of Autobot and human resistance. All they managed to find, however, was a human-made booby trap that buried Icepick under tons of debris. Slog exited his Pretender shell to dig out his comrade, reflecting that Galvatron's madness would ultimately destroy them all.

Not long later, he and the others rejoined the Decepticons to defend the Decepticon Powerbase against an Autobot attack. Slog's role in the battle, and its final outcome, is unknown.

He was poetic, in a Yoda-esque kinda way. And also adorable. Rhythms of Darkness!


Devil's Due G.I. Joe vs. Transformers comics continuity

Slog was among a group of Decepticons who made a deal with Cobra-La, receiving power-enhancing organic shells in exchange for defending Cobra-La's underground kingdom. They attacked a trio of Autobots aboard the submerged Arc II, then as Monstructor, defended the kingdom against surface attack by GI Joe. Black Horizon, Part 2

Slog-toy

Pretenders hide the... chunky thing.... inside.

Slog's Pretender shell is a sort of dumpy spikey finned monster thing. His inner robot is the largest of the Pretender Monsters, and unfolds in a comparatively complex fashion to combine with them to form the shoulders and upper torso of Monstructor. His simple transformation to beast mode is similar to that of both Icepick and Scowl. He comes with his shell, shell plate, a small rifle, a large rifle for Monstructor, and Monstructor's head.
