I think this is the toy he's based on. It's the nearest I can find to his colour scheme anyway.

Shattered Glass Dinobot was repurposed from the Universe remake of Beast Wars Dinobot.
Dinobot transforms into a brown and amber Jurassic Park-style Velociraptor with a robot mode styled heavily after the Beast Wars CGI model, including a face with a nose and mouth. His transformation has been altered to produce more human-like proportions, with his robot legs now becoming the raptor legs and the arms hiding mostly inside the torso. He also sports a fully show accurate robot head which can be raised to a 45 degree angle as well as turn. On his chest is a panel that can swap between a Maximal symbol, a Predacon symbol and a blank third panel (for the beast mode head). His show-accurate double opposable thumbs can be swapped out for "proper" fists. His tail still detaches and splits to become a weapon, but no longer rotates. Instead, it fires a missile shaped like his sword from the cartoon, which can actually be held as a sword by either the regular fist or claw hands. The tail can also clip onto his back for storage.
