In Arena, defeating the Dinotronic Mechasaur will award 10000 points, increasing by 10000 points each time the Dinotronic Mechasaur is defeated. Higher leagues will increase a multiplier for points scored, with a maximum of 5x in Jade league.
It will fire missiles on two random tiles. Missiles will not only destroy the plant on that tile, but also damage the surrounding plants. Primal Wall-nut will not be destroyed, but instead degrade. They would also do splash damage on the plants around the 3x3 area. This can also be interrupted with Plant Food.
It will fire lasers that will decimate all plants and zombies in a single row and scorch tiles in the row. Primal Wall-nut, however, will not be decimated. It will only degrade, as the laser will only deal the damage of a Gargantuar smash. Primal Potato Mines will explode immediately if it has armed itself. The attack cannot be interrupted by Plant Food, but it can be interrupted before it attacks by a health degrade.
It is mainly based on the skeleton of a sauropod, the group of long-necked herbivorous dinosaurs.
The missile that the Zombot fires looks exactly the same as the one that the Zombot Sphinx-inator fired, but unlike them, these missiles do not create two tombstones since Jurassic Marsh does not have any tombstones.
The missiles are based on Zombot War Wagon and Zombot Tomorrow-tron (the latter was only before the 2.4.1 update) since those two Zombots have the ability to spawn more than two missiles after firing it.
In terms of appearance, Zombot Dinotronic Mechasaur and Zombot Dark Dragon are almost identical to each other. Both of which only show the head and neck of the machine. In addition to that, the way they summon zombies on the lawn, the animations and textures are also identical. Also, when they are defeated, their eye pops out.
The Zombot Dinotronic Mechasaur is currently the only Zombot to summon every zombie in its world besides the Flag Zombie variants, as every previous Zombot avoids summoning at least one zombie from its world.
Before the 4.4.1 update, the scorched tiles created by the Zombot's laser attack did not fade away slowly, instead, they disappear instantly.
Also, the laser is a bit off center and was not placed properly on the Zombot's eye.
Additionally, its laser can not hit the top row due to its appearance structure.
Zombot Dinotronic Mechasaur is the only Zombot to have a laser attack. It is also the second zombie to have a laser attack, the first being Gargantuar Prime.
The Zombot Dinotronic Mechasaur shares the Gargantuar Prime's laser animation.
There is a glitch where after the money bag is collected and if a Primal Potato Mine is planted on a Zombot, it would still explode on the Zombot as Dr. Zomboss teleports away, despite being defeated.
When the Zombot Dinotronic Mechasaur roars after he enters the lawn or to summon zombies or dinosaurs, the pupils on its eyes will turn red and enlarge for a moment.
The glass part that Dr. Zomboss is in is the same one that the Zombot Sharktronic Sub had. The only difference is the top part on the antenna is purple instead of yellow.
For some reason, the zombies don't get burned by the Zombot's laser attack.
In the Chinese version, its Almanac icon only shows the head.
