Collector Notesĭespite his chunky looking design and weighty die-cast body, Snarl is prone to a number of major and minor damages. In this mode, he can wield his soft rubber sword, a long black rifle, and a missile launcher that plugs into the screw hole on his shoulder. His robot mode has odd proportions, with a very large upper body and shoulders, and narrow hips and upper legs. The main section of plates pivots down his back once his tail has been divided to the sides. His hind legs fold open to reveal his spring-loaded fists. The forelegs fit into shaped indentations on the body, which becomes the large lower legs of the robot. His transformation is slightly more nuanced than his peers. He is decorated with numerous stickers to add color and robotic details.

His dinosaurian head is molded in translucent gray plastic backed by gold chrome. His rear body is a large section of die-cast metal, painted in red. Gold chrome is generously used on his front legs, tail, plates, hind feet, and internally. Snarl transforms into a robotic Stegosaurus, with a mostly silver body. Snarl’s US Patent, titled Reconfigurable dinosaurian toy (aka Transformers G1 Snarl) was filed on Ap(U.S. This version included a small plastic and die-cast driver that could be inserted behind the translucent chest plate.

Stegosaurus featured a black painted die-cast chest and a silver hard plastic sword. This version was considerably different than its G1 successor. As part of the sub-series Dinosaur Robo, he was No.

Snarl, like all the Dinobots, started his existence in Takara’s Diaclone in 1983.
