A local toy store was having a sale and I managed to snag some mecha-dinosaur with light and sound attack features, and I thought that they were really nice to play with.
I was in the process of customizing a couple of them when the Robot Rebellion group project came up, and I thought that they were perfect for it.
I originally wanted to name the vehicles after the Transformers Dinobots, but decided to just name the drivers instead.
After I finished making the first version of Trap-Jaw, I thought that a Trap-Jaw without its accessory arm just didn't look right, so I edited his first filecard into getting him to lose his arm, and replacing it with a laser rifle arm with this second version.
I'm thinking if I find a way to make robot jaws for him, I'd probably make a third version. hehehe
