Dinosaur Helicopters is the military equivalent of 1000 bigfoots armed with flamethrowers. It doesn't matter what the conflict is, you win.

Who could withstand the awesome sight of a dinocopter bearing down on them without falling to their knees, weeping and gnashing their teeth?

@zenpoet: That should be "dinosaur helicopets are." And the bigfoot joke is a paraphrase of Seanbaby, so all credit to him.

@zenpoet: The question is, who would win in a fight between the dinocopters and 1000 bigfoots armed with flamethrowers?

(Answer: the Loch Ness Bio-Navy.)

@Ubik2501: Short answer? Everyone. That is who would win, because the awesome explosion resulting from such a clash would turn the world into a living breathing beer commercial, where every guy is witty, and every woman hot.

@Ubik2501: Depends. Are we talking about sasquatch or Bigfoot the Monster Truck?

Because when you mount a flamethrower on Bigfoot the Monster Truck, you're two steps away from Truck-A-Saurus. And Truck-A-Saurus would beat the crap out of a mere dinocopter any day.

@OMG! Ponies!: Well, were talking Sasquatch here, but I would still have to disagree with Truck-a-Saurus. While Truck-A-Saurus is great for entertaining Cletus at this sunday, Sunday, SUNDAY! monster truckpull, it just doesn't have the awe inspiring fear potential of a dinocopter.

And besides, any sort of machine that can loft a triceratops into battle, would be one massive sunofabitch, and could crush a little Tonka truck with one burst of flatulent exhaust.

@zenpoet: You obviously didn't go to the show at Nassau Coliseum in 2003 when Truck-A-Saurus went berserk and ate a fourth grade class on field trip from PS 143.

Mrs. Armstrong still has nightmares about it.

@zenpoet: What's the ratio of Bigfoots (Or is that Bigfeet, if used in plural?) with flamethrowers, to Chupacabras with Chainsaws?

@Chromeo: The plural of Bigfoot is Bigfoot. Usage: The Bigfoot are filling the forest with the sound of their humping.

You have that confused with members of the Proudfoot clan who, indeed, prefer to be referred to en masse as Proudfeet.

@Chromeo: Approximately 1 for every 73. (Keeping in mind that it takes more than one Chupacabra to operate a chainsaw) Sure, goat suckers are kinda creepy, but a flamethrower equipped bigfoot is much more formidable and has destructive potential.

On serious note, Grimlock not think animal should be combined with helicopter. Grimlock think that Osprey program been very bad for military. Grimlock think that animal stay animal and helicopter stay helicopter. Grimlock have strangely appropriate fear of innovation.

Grimlock sad to see McCain lose election. Grimlock think McCain also agent for change. Grimlock think Republican leadership better for country than secret Muslim who got elected. Grimlock believe in action not talk.

Me Grimlock. Grimlock approve message.

@Rashad Rose: I think Rashad's point was that they are all still transformers. There was just a series created that had them taking on the forms of animals as opposed to vehicles. It seems like you're trying to differentiate between red and green apples... same thing with a slight change.
