    How old are you, 14? Maybe when you get a little older you'll understand how to take criticism. Have a nice life.

    While it is his custom so that means he can do whatever he wants, his responses seemed kinda rude

    Although the dragon mode is a bit stumpy (but then again, wasn't the original?), I LOVE the use of the "weaponmaster" dino head. I never thought of that. Wouldn't it be great if an official version allowed the dino to slot inside a third mode, completing the dinosaur/dragon mode? That would be great!

    Nice job.

    Well with customs you make something into something it wasn't meant to be in the first place..some aspects will look odd,I totally agree he is a bit stumpy,I didn't add the cones cause he's not an SR-71 now he's a space craft of sorts also adding the cones would have made the legs look shorter and overall stumpier... :)  The monster head just clips on there perfectly :)

    That is awesome! How did you manage to get the Crashbash head to form the dragon mode?

    All things considered, your custom really captures the spirit of the original figure. Well done. I wanted to do a Snapdragon custom myself, but I always thought I would wind up being limited to having either a jet mode or the dragon mode, but not both. You proved both are possible to achieve. Again, really good job.

    I've always loved how the Horrorcon's Headmasters had monster heads on one side and a robot face on the other.
    Funny story- I got a secondhand Snapdragon as a kid, and I had to figure out his transformations on my own. It wasn't until I had the internet until I realized that I had actually gotten them right!
    I'm super tempted to copy this.

    Totally awesome. I've been waiting for one of these. I never realized how well Triggerhappy could work as Snapdragon. The inclusion of all three modes is really impressive.

    Why? It's faithful to the source. If anything, the custom's head is actually proportionately (if ever so slightly) bigger than the G1 figure.

    Yeah, but it's not like G1 Snapdragon was ever getting any points for his monster mode looking cool.
