Dinobots

Robotic prehistoric reptiles

Dinobots are a faction of Transformers—robotic characters that transform between humanoid and dinosaur forms.

Led by the powerful but dim-witted Grimlock, they first appeared in the 1984 animated series and remain fan favorites across Transformers media.

The Dinobots were always my favorite part of the cartoon.

The name combines dinosaur with robot.
