Help Me Identify a Transformer Toy From My Childhood

Hello:

My first post these forums. Seems like an excellent community.

I've recently become interested in Transformers again, with the recent movies sparking it to be honest. I've purchase about 12 toys in the last two months. I try to play with them but I'm kind a rusty in that department :-) It doesn't matter, they are still awesome.

Anyway, when I was kid in the (early?) 80s, I remember asking my parents for a specific Transformer I never got: I think it was a dinosaur; it may have been green. Here is the most important two characteristics: it may have had multiple heads, and regardless if it had multiple heads or not, it had a long neck, in contrast to a t-rex for example. The heads may have been yellow. Beyond that it looked like a predatory dinosaur.

Any thoughts?

Oh, and it may have been green.

Thanks in advance! :D

How early in the 80's. anything before 1985 and they wouldn't be transformers.

Potentially a Pre-Transformers Dinobot Sludge, or something akin.

I've done some research with the links provided in this thread.

I'm 70% sure - which is pretty sure - it's Hun-Gurrr (http://www.tfu.info/1987/Decepticon/Hun ... n-grrr.htm) or Doublecross (http://www.tfu.info/1987/Autobot/Double ... ecross.htm).

Cheers everyone. I really appreciate it.
