The name or term "Snarl" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Snarl (disambiguation).
Snarl is an Autobot from the Transformers Animated continuity family.
"Me Snarl think chest nose on fire."

Snarl is a Triceratops Dinobot. Built quite a bit better then a tank, there's nothing he enjoys more then taking the nearest solid object and headbutting it. It's not so much the mindless desruction he likes, it's just Snarl throughly enjoys being strong, and smashing things to powder seems like the best way of expressing this. And if he needs to mix things up a little, being able to breath fire hot enough to melt a garbage truck helps.


Fiction

Transformers Animated cartoon

This section covers fiction that is ongoing. It will be added to as the story progresses. If it isn't current, you can help by updating it.

Snarl, like the other two Dinobots, began life as an animatronic robot at Dino Drive, where he/it was damaged by an over-enthusiastic Bulkhead. He was upgraded with Cybertronian technology in Isaac Sumdac's lab (with the help of Megatron), and further modified by a burst of All Spark energy. He then spent his time breathing fire and breaking things. He also swallowed a missile, which is just beyond cool.

He, along with Swoop, did not transform during the course of his early life. It is possible he didn't know he could do it until Grimlock discovered he could. Blast from the Past

"Slag you guys, Me goin' home."

He was later forced by the villain Meltdown to guard the research facility Meltdown had commandeered on an island in Lake Erie, and to attack the Autobots Prowl and Bulkhead. Once Meltdown was trapped and unable to hurt him, he demonstrated he'd learned to transform and joined his fellow Dinobots in threatening the acid-thrower. However, before Meltdown could be hurt, Snarl's attention was diverted to Colossus Rhodes and two of Meltdown's mutants, and he and the other Dinobots had fun beating up on them instead. Survival of the Fittest

When the Decepticons were planning to invade Earth, Optimus Prime, Bulkhead, and Prowl went to Dinobot Island to ask the Dinobots to help The Autobots battle them. Grimlock decided that the Dinobots could defend themselves and that they didn't need to team up with the Autobots. Despite the fact that they were Autobots. {storylink|Megatron Rising - Part One}}

Me Snarl think me beast mode is discoloured.
During transformation, his dino head becomes his chest and he ends up carrying a club. His beast mode limbs form his arms and legs, similar to how his G1 counterpart's limbs worked. Also the only similarity to G1 Snarl is that the tail splits in half and goes behind his shoulders.

Trivia

  • Snarl was obviously designed to be the Animated incarnation of the Generation 1 Dinobot Slag. (Preproduction shots even bore the name Slag.) However, it seems there were some trademark problems, forcing Hasbro to change his name. Slag!
