Cindersaur, Flamefeather and Sparkstalker?

I've always though of skylinx as a dragon, 4 legs, wings long head. The Fuzors don;t really evoke dragon to me, the way Skylinx does.

I would count Cindersaur as a dragon. The Ladybird G1 series did.

Funny that Cerberus was mentioned in connection to Sinnertwin as he transforms into Cerberus brother whose name escapes me at the mo, at least until I get home and root out the Cybertronian guides which do suggest that's what his alt mode is.

Rippersnapper is definitely a limbed shark.

Blot. it's been suggested, is a mole monster which I can kind of see.

Any of the Pretender Monsters have dragonesque modes?

What about Overkill and Slugfest? Were they mentioned?

Overkill and Slugfest... isn't O.K the little T-rex guy and SF's the stego?

After checking 'em out on TFU.info...

So did those two make the list then? They are awsome little dino cassettes. If you want to be a hero go after the Japanese exclusive Dino cassette combiners. four in all, two teams merge much the same as Sqalktalk and Slamdance.

id take skylinx off... just a flying reptile and a linx, not a dragon

Sky Lynx (?? It looks like a dragon, but it's called his "Bird Mode"...)

Sinnertwin looks more like a two headed cat, mythical beast yes, dragon not really.

Sky Lynx on the cartoon was refered to as a Dinosaur in one episode and he complained about being compaired to the Dinobots. I think he's more like a brontosaurous.

Windracer wrote:BM Beastchanger (Savage Noble? If he counts...)

Savage is a dragon yes.

...none, again?

With all the repaints in that toy line I find it hard to belive there's no dragons. Might wanna double check that...

Wasn't one of the Cybertron Scourge toys allso repainted for the Classics line?

I don't have any cassettes in my collection, TBH. I've always wanted one or two, though... And after looking on some sites, I think I'd be able to swing Overkill and Slugfest somewhere down the line.

That works just swell for me. Saves me moolah since last I checked, Lynxy went for a pretty penny in most places.

I checked. As others mentioned earlier, the only Universe dragon would have been a RID Megatron repainted/molded into the style of BW Dragon Megatron... Unfortunately it was never produced, which is a crying shame because it would have looked freaking badass.

Yeah, it was Legends of Cybertron Scourge, into Trypticon. I've had him listed for a while, and I still have yet to pick up the little bugger. :p

You have Giganodragon! I wanted that guy for the longest time 'cause I thought he looked neat! Could have gotten him on ebay for like $14 but I passed... ah, well. XD

BM Megs irks me a bit, that spring-loaded neck of his always made posing him difficult... And don't get me started on those wings. Mine never seem to stay open. D:

Anyhow, here's mine. Apologies for the quality, my cell phone is the closest thing to a camera I've got right now.

Also... ignore that little black and silver guy in the front.

whos the orange guy on the floor by Rid Megatron's feet?

I know it's hard to tell from the pic... but it's Legends of Cybertron Scourge.

Can you post a pic of that odd dragony thing transformed?

You know what else was a good transforming dragon? The Red Dragon Zord from power rangers. I think that's what it was from anyways.

I assume you mean this one the non tf of the bunch ive put him next to beastwars megatron as a size comparison.

GiganoDragon photographs really badly as it is incredibly shiney every surface in robotmode is slightly reflective

I don't know if this one has already been mentioned before, I haven't read through the whole thread - but the thread has been here long enough I thought I should actually post something...

What about the Beast Machines Happy Meal Megatron? He's a dragon...

Do you mind rotating the pic?

What about Cybertron Wreckloose? He's a dragon. (Sort of.)

I kept forgetting for two days, and I was just gonna say that exact figure. I'd second Cybertron Wreckloose. He's a Komodo Dragon with a hat to make him look more dragonlike.

And I also have a small dragon collection, consisting of Rid, TM2, Beast Machines Megatron, G1 Hun-Grr, LOC Scourge, and Wreckloose. Haven't been able to get anymore for a while. And my Beast Machines Megs doesn't have a robot head, should have checked it before I bought it at the Flea Market. Eh, it was 50 cents, so really no biggie, it's in pretty good shape otherwise.

And I remember that dragon from Dinozaurs. That show used to be on Fox back in the day. Caught it a couple of times, wasn't impressed for some reason.

Yeah, he is pretty "dragon" like, and a Komodo dragon is probably as close as will get to real live dragons in the real world. That bacteria-filled mouth is like it's own fire-breath.

And despite his vomit-like colours, he's actually a really neat little figure and really very poseable for his size!

I like the color scheme of Wreckloose. And the only reason I got him was cause Toys R Us was having a "spend $20 and get a free Scout" deal, and since he was a dragon, I went for him. It was a good choice too. Only problem is that dang blade shield is near impossible to pose with well.

Oh, and since G1 Cindersaur is on your list, and you want all the actual figures, add the Japanese Guzzle to your list, it's his repaint in Dinoking colors: http://www.tfu.info/1988/Destron/Guzzle/guzzle.htm

Personally I just want to collect the molds, and I'm glad too, cause Lucky Draw's get expensive.
