I have the takara version. He is fantastic. I display him in bot mode. He looks very intimidating on the shelf.

I can't wait to finally get my hands on him!

I wouldn't bother with the Takara version, unless they're the same price and you have a preference for the packaging & waiter accessories. Otherwise the Hasbro one is nearly the same and comes with the crown accessory which the regular Takara edition did not. If you can get the Hasbro one for cheaper, I say go for it!

maido san fetish hehehe That's a subculture in anime where French maid style costumes gets your energon levels up to max :lol:

Though in Grimlock's case, he's just wearing an apron........even more sexier 8-}

I've got the Takara version in signiture picture below. He's usually decorating the bar, along with Binaltech Jazz w/ Martini reprolabels. Haven't had any problems with mine. The version to go with depends on how you will display him the most. I display in dino mode mostly. I did get my hands on the Hasbro crown though! :KREMZEEK:

Either version is awesome. I would go with the one whose accessories fit you best.

What do the batteries do? I just opened mine and they didnt work, put new ones in and still nothing. Dont see any leaks. Oh well - but what lights/sounds are there (Hasbro version btw)?
Thanks.

the light is in the hand. his right hand. there might be a little plastic tab you have to pull out to activate it.

Assuming i won't handle him too often, how long can i expect MP Grimlock to last?

He'll probably outlast the Earth
