Series 2 Dinobot: Snarl.  Ultra high-grade example with exceptional subgrades of 85-90-90.    Very clean box exhibiting only minor blemishes.  Near the top, through the T in the TRANSFORMERS logo, there appears to be a vertical outline of where tape was once present.  One side of the top panel exhibits an impression that runs from the top corner to the bottom corner.  On the bottom panel, there is a light wrinkle at the top edge above the robot form of Snarl.  Reverse is very nice with a less than one inch horizonal crease where the flap crease is typically found.  The front panel is exceptional and virtually flawless.  Tape is present on both ends but has broken apart.  It’s important to note that there is no colorbreak visible along either edge.  Finally, the large window and the bubble that secures Snarl are both very clear making for an outstanding presentation.  Collectors will surely be keeping a close eye on this one; Dinobots are extremely popular amongst collectors and an example with such outstanding subgrades rarely hits the market.  Made in Japan.  Encapsulated by AFA (85, 85-90-90), #19555864
