From Transformers Wiki
| This article is about the Maximal. For the Transcendent Technomorph, see Rapticon (TransTech). |
- Rapticon is a Maximal Dinobot from the Beast Machines portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Rapticon is big, strong, fast, and really smart. He's basically the overpowered self-insertion character in any fan fiction. He has unmatched precision and success, can immediately pick out the weak spot in an enemy formation, can smash anything with his tail and has a roar that can permanently damage Vehicons. Annoying, isn't it?
He's also a smug, superior smart-ass.

- Part of the Dinobots sub-line of Beast Machines, Rapticon is a redeco of the Beast Wars Predacon Transmetal 2 Dinobot, transforming into a monstrous, skeletal organic/mechanical Velociraptor. His tail is made of sectioned rubbery plastic that lets it swipe easily back-and-forth when a dial on its base is turned. This tail-gimmick also becomes a claw-held weapon for Rapticon's robot mode.
