Goryu
From MediaWiki
- Goryu is a Decepticon from the Victory portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Goryu is the leader of the Dinoforce Decepticons. He typically wields a large spiked club, and unlike the rest of his team, is most often seen riding on the back of his T. rex pretender shell, rather than controlling it from the inside, or fighting along side it. He and his troops combine to form the goliath Dinoking.
Hot-headed, easily frustrated and generally not too bright, Goryu demands obedience from his dim-witted troops (especially Kakuryu, whom he often abuses), and respect from the Breastforce... respect which he will never get.
- English-Maylay dub name: Icepick

Trivia
- All of the Dinoforce's rubbery shells are susceptible to developing an oily film, and their gold paint may take on a green patina. Why exactly this happens is currently unknown, but as such, even mint in package toys may come out of the package kind of slimy and discolored. Eyuw.
- The Victory anime depicted the Dinoforce members as carrying melee weapons, rather than the blasters the toys actually came with.
