Been trying photoshoppinng a Prime Predacon version of Sparkstalker out of Grimwing's Blackbeak partner/accessory/

But I can't decide on what the colors should be, and yellow is hard to work with in photomanipulators, at least for me. There is also the G2 version I suppose.

Darksteel's repaint of the acessory does set precedent for interesting paint applications

Making Kreo Cohrada a real transformer: design ideas

Now, just gonna plan out a dream toy here. You might think at first this is impossible. While striking cobras have been done in the past, surely you can’t make a good transforming robot out of such a serpentine bodyplan!

I introduce Gigano dragon from Dinozaurs

The transformation would be slightly different, due to lacking Gigano Dragon’s stubby pairs of feet to turn into each foot.

I think it might be possible to turn the head and grabbing tail into feet :the grabbing parts maybe folding in while a footpart folds out from between. The head becomes a foot similar to Hun-grr’s humanoid mode.

The robot mode parts of hands and head: I suggest simplicity since this is still a somewhat experimental transformation type.

The head could be as simple as a single eye , like the Decepticon Movie drones for the tie-in videogame.

The hands could be simple robot grabbers:  Like G1 Whirl’s right arm.

The result is two distinct modes: an assymetrical somewhat awkward one that looks retro robotic, contrasted against a serpentine killing machine.

This works kinda well with the snake mode being the original form lorewise, like all the Prime Predacons. Its a snake imitating a humanoid robot to best of their ability
