So you prefer a generic four-armed strength alien (yes, four arms are generic) to a "generic" dinosaur-like alien (I've rarely seen dinosaur aliens) with two arms?

Because he looks more like a slim blue Flash with a tail than a dinosaur. Also, not all dinosaurs were fast. In fact, few of them were. They were just big.

Alanomaly wrote: My problem with Saur is not just his amount of appearances, it's two things: the fact he hasn't used his size alteration powers since Video Games, the fact the majority of his appearances could have been someone else.

Four Arms hasn't used the "sonic clap" in a while, if I'm not mistaken. Nevertheless, at least Humungousaur has some power beyond just being big.

As for "could have been someone else", that applies to literally every single alien. It's irrelevant. Ben could have used Diamondhead to fight Vilgax, for example, instead of the times he used Four Arms. He could have used Ghostfreak instead of XLR8 to escape a situation. I could go on, but I hope I've made my point.
