Super Dimensional Slug One Speed : 0 - 3 , 210 mph < br > Origin : Nazi Fatherland Security Act of 1944 Background . Fast forward back until 1944 . Super Dimensional Slug One ( SDS - 1 ) was the failed being Nazi war machine . Slug lost in space in during testing 1 - 2 - 3 only to reappearing in 2002 and then commandeer by Dr . Cube ' s Posse . Slug is both super slow and super fast dependant on strength of batteries of Dr . Cube ' s remote joystick . Red antennae is being SDS - 1 electrified poker for enemy hurt . SDS slime is weapon of deadly secrecy , beware . Super Dimensional Slug slow like poison , but deadly still , even though owning pathological fear of salt . Time Bomb . In the summer of 1944 , an elite nucleus of Nazi physicists was given a highly classified mission : develop a secret weapon to protect German cities from Allied bombing campaigns . Working day and night , dabbling on the fringes of theoretical physics , the team masterminded the Super Dimensional Slug One , a defense weapon that would trump enemies in a way they ' d never imagined : time travel . The strategic premise of the Super Dimensional Slug ( a / k / a SDS - 1 ) was that the mechanical mollusk would travel back in time and shoot down American bomber sorties before they bombarded their Nazi targets . These clock - defying capabilities were made possible by SDS - 1 ' s time - space - continuum manipulator ; the gastropod gadget was also outfitted with two red antennae that could shoot devastating blasts of photons - a crude version of today ' s laser technology . But the Allies ' intelligence - gathering systems were onto the Nazi ' s slippery plans . So the Brits and the Americans launched a pre - emptive attack against Hitler ' s totalitarian regime : they deployed a joint covert - commando force to destroy the Slug before the Nazis could perfect the instrument ' s time - manipulating faculties . But on September 9 , 1944 , moments after Allied forces landed on a German airfield to seize SDS - 1 , the Slug inexplicably vanished . Both sides were mystified - they accused one other of foul play . This disappearance would haunt the world for years to come : unbeknownst to the general public , it wasn ' t nuclear weapons or an ideological divide that engendered the Cold War - it was a Slug . The Cold War came and melted , but the mystery of the Slug remained for 58 years . Then on September 3 , 2002 , astronomers from the International Space Station ( ISS ) detected a giant unidentified mass hurtling towards Earth . According to ISS radio spectrometry array , the object ' s movements defied the basic laws of physics . Moreover , the ISS calculated that if the 925 - foot object continued on its current course at this speed , there was a 97 . 25 % chance it would collide with Earth within a week . The world freaked . People screamed . Atheists prayed . Everyone guessed what it might be : the scientific community hypothesized that the object was a new type of super comet ; good ol ' God - fearing folks believed the body was the second coming of Christ ; a few paranoid lunatics from California conjectured that it was an alien - harvesting machine on the way to glean its bi - millennial crop of human flesh . But the panic grew to a fever pitch when the Hubble Space Telescope Project published photos that revealed what it was : a giant slug ! In the pictures , the enormous slug ' s skin resembled a World War II - era Nazi bomber ; its grey backside , sky - blue underbelly , and black markings harked back to the warplanes of the Luftwaffe . These features led experts to conclude that the entity was the infamous Super Dimensional Slug One . After all these years , SDS - 1 was coming home . In an ironic twist of fate , the Nazi contraption was headed to crash in Berlin . Reaction to SDS - 1 ' s homecoming was mixed . Skeptics insisted that the end of the world was near , and that the Nazi party would finally have the last laugh . Conversely , the streets of Argentina erupted with elderly white men celebrating the return of Germany ' s once " Great Grey Hope . " The rest of the international community collapsed into a neurotic frenzy as SDS - 1 barreled towards earth on a mission of global annihilation . The catapulting Slug was merely 3 hours away from impact when an unlikely " hero " saved Germany ( and perhaps the entire planet ) from catastrophe . As the rest of the world stood by helplessly , evil genius Dr . Cube - himself a Nazi progeny - intercepted the speeding Slug in outer space . Using a remote control he bought at a military antique auction , Cube commandeered the Slug and sent it flying into his gated compound . Right away , the demented doctor discovered that the Slug was riddled with operational bugs : when SDS - 1 landed , it missed Hell Monkey ' s bunker by a Minion hair . Apparently , the Nazis had made far less progress than Allied military intelligence had initially thought . But Dr . Cube , determined to use all available resources in his quest to rule earth , repaired the Slug as best he could and sent him off to Battel Los Plantanos at Boston ' s Roxy Ruckus . Despite technical difficulties , SDS - 1 scored his first victory alongside Napalean that evening . Since then , the Slug hasn ' t proved to be the swiftest member of Dr . Cube ' s Posse , but his mobility and tenacity do seem to grow with every Battel . The Kaiju Heroes , and the rest of the free world , fear that it may only be a matter of time before this slowpoke gets on the fast track to Big Battel success .
