Fangy the Raptor is a green Raptor (possibly a bigger sub-species due to massive size) that appears in Conker's Bad Fur Day and Conker: Live & Reloaded.

Role[]

Fangy the Raptor is a large, green and hostile dinosaur and surprisingly an ally of Conker in Conker's Bad Fur Day and Conker: Live & Reloaded. Fangy appears in the Uga Buga chapter.

Fangy is kept as a reluctant pet of the giant, egotistical Uga-Buga, Buga the Knut, who uses Fangy in his coliseum to shred everyone for pure entertainment purposes.

After Fangy had been set loose to devour Conker, the squirrel manages to hypnotize him with his handy Pocketwatch, which allows Conker to mount and ride him like a steed. Conker uses Fangy to get rid of all Uga-Bugas on the field by either allowing Fangy to eat them, or knock them into the lava surrounding the arena. Conker also utilizes Fangy in battle against the dinosaur's former master, Buga the Knut. Conker then suggests that, while acknowledging that Fangy was by no means a vegetarian, he was to get the meat and two veg, and that he would do a bit of "tenderizing" (indirectly telling him to go for his crotch and butt).

After Buga's humiliating defeat, Fangy, who had grown attached to Conker, begins to follow him around like a loyal pet. Conker, who did not feel the same way towards the Raptor, manages to get rid of Fangy by tossing a bone from a half eaten corpse of an Uga-Buga into Fangy's pen; the dinosaur, running to fetch the bone, accidentally wanders back into his cage, where the door closes, and Fangy is never seen again.

In the Raptor Multi mode of Conker's Bad Fur Day, one of the sides to play as were the Raptors, which were identical in play style compared to Fangy, only without saddles or reins. They were also playable in Deathmatch mode, but only on the Temple stage.

Trivia[]

  • Fangy shares a similar appearance to the Sharpclaw species of dinosaurs from Star Fox Adventures, another Rare game.
  • The fact that Conker (who is a red squirrel) rides on Fangy (who is a green dinosaur) is a parody of Mario riding on Yoshi in the Mario series.
  • He was mistaken to be a tyrannosaur due to the fact that his appearence is more of a tyrannosaur instead of a raptor, besisdes the size.
  • If Conker is knocked off of Fangy during the first few waves against enemies, the latter will turn against Conker until being hypnotized again. The only exception is when fighting against Buga the Knut, as he immediately returns to Conker's side if the latter is knocked off and allows him to mount him.
