TNT Dinos[1] are blue T-Rex with a large underbite that throws lit dynamite (three times from a distance, one time in close range) in the direction of his enemies from his mouth. They are found in Dino Mines. Spyro can only defeat them with his flame breath. Unlike the Gunfighter Dinos, they don't roar while in wait.
In the original game they wear grey cowboy hats with orange bandanas, and resemble the Gunfighter Dinos. Their redesign in the Reignited Trilogy has them wearing sombreros with yellow shirts, covered by a poncho, and pointy boots on their feet. They are also equipped with a gunpowder keg strapped to their backs.
One also appears in the epilogue of the original game, alongside two Gunfighter Dinos where they are robbing Moneybags, with a caption that says "The Bailey Gang finds a new target."

Trivia[]
- They, along with the Gunfighter Dinos, share a strong resemblance to the Lava Lizards seen in Skelos Badlands from Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!
- Their growling sounds in the original trilogy somewhat resemble Midknight's Vendetta growl from the game Eternal Champions: Challenges from the Dark Side.
- An egg model titled Object 764 - Dino Mines Egg was originally going to be used in Dino Mines presumably for them & Gunfighter Dinos to hatch out from. Though the texture for the egg model appears different in the final, the cracked shell fragments also use this object ID seem to use the same left-over texture the aforementioned eggs that the Lava Lizards spawn from in Skelos Badlands from Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!.
- A beta screenshot of Dino Mines shown in the SCEE review build of Spyro: Year of the Dragon seen in an issue of PS Max further shows that their egg model was originally textured red like in Skelos Badlands from Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage! before settling on a different texture for the egg model in the final.
