Reptar

Reptar is a fictional dinosaur from the American animated television series Rugrats. Reptar is green and sometimes red-violet and lilac, with rounded, blue spike-like appendages on his back. He is an obvious parody of Godzilla.

Reptar was conceived by Louis W. Greenstein and Larry Loebell for their episode, "Incident in Aisle 7."

Within the Rugrats cartoon itself, Reptar is a cartoon adored by the main characters, although not all of the parents share this view, in particular Tommy's mother. Occasionally Reptar is seen as a hero that helps save the world, and on other occasions he is seen as a villain, reflecting the different ways Godzilla is portrayed. Reptar first appears in Rugrats on the packaging of a cereal box. From then on he gains popularity as he becomes a more important part of the story line. In the world of the Rugrats, Reptar has excellent marketing presence; he appears within movies, ice skating shows, food packaging, TV shows, action figures, amusement parks and all kinds of merchandising, as a parody of children's merchandising in real life.

Reptar also appears in the All Grown Up! episode Curse of Reptar, when the Pickles family builds a pool. While digging, one of the workers finds a Reptar toy hidden in the ground by Spike.
