booo Well i am not a fan of new animated. however i do plan on getting the dinobots. this one is disappointing but good all in all. i don't like the bot mode at all i think it could have been better .also i see very little inspiration from g1 original.
Animated Deluxe Class Snarl Review Hey guys heres my review on Animated Snarl compared to Grimlock and my other animated figures like soundwave. Let me know what you think.
Well, while Split Lip has a very good point about the design, I think he was meant to be Slag. At Botcon the Animated panel explained there were some problems with some of the dialogue, they said in the first season they had trouble using "slag" as a Transformers cuss because it wouldn't get past the network censor or something. By the time season 2 was in the works, they managed to clear it by using Beast Wars as an example (look, we said it all the time in that show without trouble). I'd assume Snarlag got renamed because Hasbro saw the situation and decided they couldn't put out a toy named Slag. I doubt shops would have carried him in the UK given how it's an actual cuss out here! (On the same token, I doubt we'll see Slapper again either. Someone is bound to complain about that one!)
It's not the head, it's the torso bits. I just figured it out on mine. The instructions make it look like you need the torso bits lined up directly in bot mode, like so: But what you REALLY want to do is bring the lower red piece forward and up in front of the grey piece, then push the grey piece back in between the red shoulder halves, like this: This lets the dino head sit properly up against his chest. That little fix makes a WORLD of difference, and makes Snarl one of the better Wave 3 figures.
I just picked this one up at retail yesterday and it's amazing how much better he looks, thanks Peaugh. This is clearly how it was meant to be. Now.. if we could just find an easy fix on the rear end connection for the legs. There's nothing to keep it in place. Perhaps there's already been a mod posted, I'll keep lookin'. -Jet

Nice. I recently found this out when the thread was posted in the toy forums. Really makes a difference. His name is Snarl, BTW. Just Snarl. Based off the name of the dude he's based off. (robot mode is all Snarl, from the tail wings to the horned head)
Transformers Animated did a lot of innovative stuff, but also a few throwbacks as well. Like leaving out Sludge and Snarl, then stealing Snarl's name and giving it to Slag! But we'll review him anyway, because you can still find him online for a more or less reasonable price. So take a gander at Deluxe Snarl with the Reaper as your guide, because nobody knows value like Death!
