<div>While definitely a ceratops, Snarl isn't a Triceratops- count the number of horns. He's only got two. He looks more like a Diceratus: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diceratus, Arrhinoceratops: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhinoceratops, or Albertaceratops: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albertaceratops which more accurately fit his head.<br />
<br />
Either that or the designers simply neglected the fact that a Triceratops is supposed to have a third horn halfway down the snout when dreaming up the design.<br />

==Snarl per Toy Fair==<br />
Seriously? That's not a typo or something? -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 03:35, 20 February 2008 (UTC)<br />
: It's definitely not a typo. Word is, Hasbro couldn't secure the trademark. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 03:39, 20 February 2008 (UTC)<br />
::Odd that the USPTO appears to [http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=76674442 think otherwise].--[[User:Nevermore|Nevermore]] 11:44, 21 February 2008 (UTC)<br />
:::Approved on Christmas—how sweet! I'd think that was enough lead time for Hasbro's Marketing Division or what have you to confirm the name on this particular toy in time for Toy Fair, but perhaps not.--[[User:Apcog|Apcog]] 15:13, 21 February 2008 (UTC)<br />

Think I figured it out. At Botcon, they said that early in production they didn't know if they could use terms like Slag, and it wasn't until midway through season 2 they got the go ahead(word slag is nonexistant before Ep11, shows up all the time now). Snarl featured in the first few episodes, meaning they would have been scripted before they got the go ahead to use terms like slag, ergo it required a name change. And when the cartoon changed the name, the toy had to follow. This would explain why the name isn't Slag, yet the word is now part of the TFA lexicon, and why the preproduction shots of the toy carried the title Slag. just a thought[[User:GWolfv2]] 18.40 7 May (GMT)<br />
: Hasbro feels they can't use the name on toys, regardless if the show can, so long as they sell those toys overseas. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 17:46, 7 May 2008 (UTC)<br />
::So why was he named Slag a couple of months before the show came on air? May just be a theory but it's a highly plausible one if you ask me [[User:GWolfv2]] 01.30 May 10 2008 (GMT)<br />
