ink_in_handOne possible look for the cybertronian Alloygator. While I really like how the head came out, there seems to be something... off with the design.
Because someone doesn't care how they get their awesome.

They make me want to combine a normal 'gators tough bite with that of a komodo dragon's, so if he should bite you, you're going to have some cosmic rust to take care of. Kind of makes sense, considering what they're swimming around in. Which means their hide has to be made of some of the toughest material around. For tests of speed, hunt turbo foxes. For tests of strength, and courage, or craziness depending on who you're talking to, take on an alloygator. Here bunny, bunny, bunny I have an alloygator a Kup and an Ironhide to introduce to you.
The design does seem a bit off. *tilts head* Maybe it's the fact that the legs are so long, or something. I really wasn't expecting something like this at all, so consider me very pleasantly shocked.

The longer legs were inspired by the earlier land crocodilians that used to exist. I think it's the colors that are bugging me, I wanted blue, but it doesn't seem to work right.

Maybe the colors are bothering you because alligators, and alloygators by comparison, are masters of camouflage, I don't think this particular type, where the blue is the predominant color and on top of the body, would be very affective camouflage, at least in this part of the Rust Sea. Then again, it might be like an albino or lives in a certain part of the Sea where there's more blue.
