| - Little is known about Max before his first encounter with Sonic in New Tek City. When Sonic arrived in the Zone to meet the Chaotix Crew, Max's business partner, Blockhead Bill, accused Sonic of being the Crimson Cobra and attacked him. In the guise of a giant, T-Rex-like dinosaur, Max was piloted by Bill in his attempt to destroy 'the Crimson Cobra'. Max was eventually beaten when he was standing underneath an overhead train track. From above, Sonic insulted the dinosaur and, when Max looked up to face the source, he banged his head hard and the fight was ended. Soon after, Max shrunk into a much smaller lizard.
- While Blockhead Bill is a slightly senile former crime fighter, Max is an affable and debonair orange lizard. However, when he tastes the Mandrake Root, he turns into a giant red dinosaur, whom Blockhead Bill rides into battle. As a dinosaur, Max seems to be incapable of speech and may be little more than a mindless, rampaging beast. However, he is incredibly ticklish even in this form, something that he has never told Bill.

| - While Blockhead Bill is a slightly senile former crime fighter, Max is an affable and debonair orange lizard. However, when he tastes the Mandrake Root, he turns into a giant red dinosaur, whom Blockhead Bill rides into battle. When in his normal form, Max speaks with an upper class accent and has a refined palate, despising the taste of Mandrake Root but feeling it might go well with salad dressing. He likes to wear fine suits, but when he transforms into a dinosaur they are instantly shredded. After returning to normal following one of these transformations, he typically goes without any clothing besides his spectacles. As a dinosaur, Max seems to be incapable of speech and may be little more than a mindless, rampaging beast. However, he is incredibly ticklish even in this form, something that he has never told Bill.
- Little is known about Max before his first encounter with Sonic in New Tek City.

In the guise of a giant, T-Rex-like dinosaur, Max was piloted by Bill in his attempt to destroy 'the Crimson Cobra'. Max was eventually beaten when he was standing underneath an overhead train track. From above, Sonic insulted the dinosaur and, when Max looked up to face the source, he banged his head hard and the fight was ended. Soon after, Max shrunk into a much smaller lizard. It transpired that Max only transformed into his larger, more ferocious self when fed a Mandrake root, of which Bill acquired from the Mandrake Swamp. In Chaotix headquarters, another fight breaks out between Bill and his son, Mighty the Armadillo, which causes Max to be fed another root and change back into a warrior. Shortly after Mighty punches Max through a wall and over the edge of Chaotix Towers, Max and Bill are teleported away by Root via a vision in the sky. Max's and Bill's mission, under the mind control of Root, had been to poison the waters of New Tek City and turn the whole area into a swamp for Root and his minions. Unfortunately, Bill's unreliability has ended this opportunity. When Sonic and Chaotix are captured whilst trying to rescue Max and Bill, Max retells the tale of when they had been in the Mandrake Swamp looking for Max's roots when they were captured and turned into slaves. The same happens to Chaotix and Max watches as Sonic evades the same treatment. Later, he and Bill join in the fight, once again as a dinosaur, but Sonic finds his weakpoint - Max is incredibly ticklish. Bill stands in disbelief as his dangerous dino friend is reduced to a fit of giggles thanks to Sonic's nimble fingers. Once Sonic finally defeats Root, the mind-control roots finally drop off of everyone and Max has his free will returned (although it is likely that he still turns into a dinosaur when required by Bill).
