I've not seen the film. But it's bugging me: Why does Strafe have two heads?
Most of the other Dinobots look sort of plausable
But Strafe ? No.
So is there a good reason in the film for his appearance?

The film doesn't really bother with an explanation for the Legendary Warriors (for that is their actual name, "Dinobots" is never spoken) existing, let alone their particular designs. They are just in the right place to be recruited by Stabbimus Prime so they can feature in the traditional last real smash-fest.

Maybe he has an Hun-Grr feature - the sucking stones & fire.

Two heads = crap design/designer, by the way.

Goink!
Now then, I know they aren't everyone's cup of tea - I tend to find myself wishing for what could have been whenever I watch them - but surely just one watch? a little tinsy watch? At least Dark of the Moon, it's the least offensive of them. Surely you have toys from these films? Do them the honour of seeing them in context... or is the prospect so abhorrent that the shrinkwrap will stay forever on?

Sly G1 Strafe reference? The twin blasters at the front are a prominent feature.

If it were entirely hasbro, I'd think maybe you have something.
But most movie bots don't have names until hasbro gives it to them. And I suspect that the dinobots (grimlock aside) fall into this bracket.
Especially since there were so many trademark hurdles.

I'd have room in like for a grey & red Strafe as Doublecross.
Phil needs to own a Doublecross

I figured it was some sort of nod to the 2 nosed alt-mode of the G1 namesake. Always liked that toy.
