Hasbro Transformers Power Of The Primes, Dinobot Snarl.

SNARL
(CLICK THE PICTURES TO ENLARGE)

Snarl

is an unhappy, unsociable loner. He grudgingly follows Grimlock's orders and that's about it. He leaves thinking to others. He has few opinions and rarely expresses those he has. Snarl's uncommunicative nature only serves to fuel his sense of isolation. On top of all this, he hates the ungainly stegosaur form given him by the Ark and feels that the war on Earth means he may never see his beloved Cybertron again. Snarl is a profoundly unhappy being.

Snarl dino mode Stegosaurus 360 GIF.

Dorsal view of Snarl.

Close up on the stegosaurus head, mouth piece can't open, no articulations on the neck.

Many molded details on the side panel, no articulations on front legs, multiple joints on rear legs because it is the arms of the robot mode.

Fold down the fins and it will reveal the Primemaster standing point, and there is another two just behind the folded fins.

The tail dropped way too straight, I get they are making it look like the G1 version, but the old one do it because the figure need it to be, the new one don't need it.

The tails is articulated, but it is way too weird to fold up.

There are peg holes on the thigh, can attach weapons on the peg hole.

I found out the sword can attach on the rectangular hole on the legs. (the hollowed rectangular hole on the other side of the ball joint socket)

Prime armor attach on the dino figure.

The full set Dinobots! (not include Slash)

A to R video of Dinobot Snarl, click the video below to watch:


Robot mode 360 GIF.

Close up on the head of Snarl, look okay, but I think he had the smallest face in the Dinobots team.

Very retro feel on the torso, he also had the coolest combiner peg in the Dinobots team.

The best looking back design in the Dinobots team, those details on the fins are very nice.

The shape of the legs always look weird for me, even the old G1 version. The knee joint looks fragile, hope it won't break long time after.

The back of the legs look bit messy, but at least it is not hollow.

Head is on ball joint, it can rotate 360, forward and backward.

Usual 90 degree angle movement on shoulder and elbow, swivel bicep joint and no wrist joint. Elbow joint of my Snarl is a little loose.

Waist can turn 360.

With lower leg that big, it is normal the knee can fold only 90 degree, hips joint is doing really well.

Totally transparent sword, they save a lots paint on this...

The best way to store the sword on the figure.

Compare to Swoop's sword, I can't say which one is better, because they're not my prefer choice.

Prime armor on the shoulder as shield. The peg hole is a little bit loose to peg on the Prime armor.

Prime armor as body armor mode, it look better on Snarl nor Sludge.

Snarl in combiner leg mode.

Side view.

The back of the leg mode.

On the instruction menu he is the left leg of Volcanicus.

It looks not bad in leg mode.

This is the fan mode I saw on internet, but not that practical, as the tail will hit the other leg when moving.

Snarl in combiner arm mode.

The other side of the arm.

It looks not bad in arm mode too.

The fins could be weapon to strike his opponent when in battle, cool.

Fan made arm mode, it looks more aggressive.

The team Dinobots, the team fossil, the team savage, the team elite.

Combiner mode compare to different series and class Transformers figures.

Volcanicus compares to CW series Bruticus. The Dinobots Combiners is taller than Bruticus, good to know that Vocanicus is taller, because each of the Dinobots is a lot taller than normal average Cybertronian, Volcanicus suppose to be a lot taller than Bruticus. Hasbro should made smaller Devastator and Predaking, their size is not compatible now, I have to put Devastator to different category. Or Hasbro should've made Volcanicus bigger in other case... (sigh)

The security team of the Cybertron city, the Dinobots, is guarding the perimeter, seems like they have some trouble in hand...

Those Decepticons rioted and try to seize one of the stronghold in the city, luckily the Dinobots is ready to take them down.

The good and the bad side collide, as they starting to fight!

The situation is a mess, a chaos!

The fights keep going...

After awhile, Dinobots take down the Decepticons by brutal force, but they didn't kill them.

Swoop realize Snarl is missing, Snarl is missing while fighting those rioters.

Swoop and Sludge worried, is Snarl killed by rioters?

No worries, he take cares the rest of the Decepticons by himself, he is tough.

Snarl is thinking to keep those losers as trophy to show off...

Volcanicus fight against Bruticus!

I'm sure Volcanicus will win this battle!
