:''Snapdragon is a [[Decepticon]] [[Horrorcon]] in the [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:G1Snapdragon_boxart.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Surprisingly, mauling Daniel did not make him an instant fan favorite.]]
What [[Blot (G1)|Blot]] does through carelessness, '''Snapdragon''' does with deliberation. He loves nothing more than bathing in putrid grease pits or, if those aren't available, the running fuel from his victims' corpses. His bouts of animalistic fury and sheer love of destruction would make him an excellent warrior if not for the fact that he's also as lazy as the [[Empties]] in [[Dead End (place)|Dead End]]. His personal quarters are littered with alarm clocks shot to fragments by laser fire because Snapdragon just wasn't motivated to kill and maim that morning. His fellow Decepticons know they risk suffering a similar fate if they try to wake him, but often risk it in the hopes of channeling Snapdragon's rage towards the Autobots. Woe to the Autobot warrior who faces Snapdragon without his beauty rest. However, his lazy and appalling personal habits make him unwelcome among his fellow Decepticons, except for the equally thuggish [[Apeface]].

He is [[Binary bonding|binary bonded]] with [[Krunk]], who only adds to his thuggish personality.

Snapdragon was one of the newly recruited Decepticon animals who attacked [[Autobot City]] as a diversion, so that the [[Clone (subgroup)|Clones]] could steal the Key to the [[Plasma Energy Chamber]]. After a quick game of "kick the can" with [[Freeway (G1)|Freeway]], Snapdragon retreated and joined [[Scourge (G1)|Scourge]]'s unit in journeying to the Chamber, and then tracking the Autobots who recovered the Key to [[Nebulos]]. While there, he mauled [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)|Daniel Witwicky]], unfortunately giving rise to the Autobot [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]]. {{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 1}} When his leaders made a deal with the [[Hive (G1)|Hive]], Snapdragon gave up his head (well, one of them*) to be [[Binary bonding|binary-bonded]] to the Nebulan known as [[Krunk]]. {{Storylink|The Rebirth, Part 2}}

{{note|One of the many confusing glitches in Rebirth is the fact that, while Krunk is clearly designed to transform into both the robot and dragon heads, Snapdragon retains his dragon mode head even when Krunk is separated from him.}}

:''Voice actor'': [[Kazuo Oka]]

Snapdragon and Apeface were loyal followers of Scorponok on the planet [[Master (planet)|Master]]. Before the Headmasters of Evil abandoned Master to join the Decepticons, the duo were captured and banished into the depths of space by [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress]] and his allies for their crimes. Sometime later, they were found and contacted by [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]], who brought them into the Decepticon ranks. Snapdragon and Apeface accompanied "[[Sixshot|Galvatron]]" to [[Shangri-La Island]] for the peace talks with [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike Witwicky]]. Fighting broke out after the Autobots traveling with Spike learned Galvatron was a fake, and the Decepticons were planning to attack other energy storages in the universe. {{storylink|Daniel Faces His Biggest Crisis Ever!!}}

===Marvel Comics continuity===
[[Image:Nightbeatsnapdragon.jpg|right|160px|thumb|Snapdragon doesn't care for your Nightbeat love.]]
Snapdragon was a Triple Changer working for [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]] on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] when their chief opponents, [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]] and his band, suddenly vanished off the face of the planet. They eventually found their enemies when Lord [[Zarak (Nebulan)|Zarak]] of [[Nebulos]] sent a [[subspace]] comm message to Cybertron, asking for help in ridding his world of the Autobots. Snapdragon and the others arrived on Nebulos, ready to destroy their enemies and plunder the planet for resources, taking Zarak and his band of followers prisoner in the process. After Fortress Maximus and his fellow warriors drove off Scorponok's crew with their new [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster]] powers, Scorponok arranged a deal with Zarak to binary bond his warriors with the captive Nebulans. Snapdragon was binary bonded to Zarak's personal bodyguard [[Krunk]]. {{Storylink|Headmasters (comic)|Headmasters}}

Snapdragon served under Scorponok during his command on Earth. When he was transported to Cybertron along with almost every other Transformer, he managed to survive the epic battle against [[Unicron]] and went on to serve under [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]].

He took part in Bludgeon's successful ambush of the Autobots on [[Klo]], only to have his head blown off soon after by [[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]], in a counter-attack led by the newly-resurrected [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]. {{Storylink|End of the Road! (US)|End of the Road!}}

===Generation 1===
*'''Snapdragon with Krunk''' (1987)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''D-100'''

:Snapdragon transforms into a fighter jet with a really long front section, and also a 'reptile mode', which resembles a generic large theropod dinosaur. His jet mode has two detachable fins, while his reptile mode can have his two guns mounted on its back. His Headmaster partner, Krunk, is both his robot mode head and his reptile mode head (which is simply the robot mode head flipped on its back).

==Trivia==
*According to [[Transformers: Call of the Future]], Snapdragon's reptilian altmode is, in fact, a [[dragon]].
*There's a serious mistake on the spanish translation when it comes of Snapdragon's name, Galvatron himself calls Snapdragon "Zedda", then Snapdragon presents himself as "Ozelas", this could be an error of the voice actor himself. this is not the the first or last of dubbing mistakes on the series (and by extenstion Masterforce and Victory) Galvatron was named "Zan Rás" which is also (and possibly intended to be) the name of Deszaras.
