Weapon: Sniper Rifle
Next up on our SDCC 2012 coverage plate is the two newest Fall Of Cybertron toys that were revealed in today's panel. Both figures are in the Voyager class scale, and both align themselves with the Autobots. We're talking about Blaster, and the highly anticipated Grimlock! Blaster is a remold of the FOC Voyager Soundwave figure, and comes with his own original minion, Steeljaw! On the other hand, Grimlock is an original mold and looks to be as ferocious as ever! Take a look at the entire gallery by clicking the photos or the links provided!

That Grimlock is pure sex, but you know what would be even better? The rest of the Dinobots that my G1 Redux shelf is woefully missing.

No contest really, FoC is my classics Grimlock. I hope we get voyager Sludge, deluxe Snarl, deluxe Slag and deluxe Swoop from them soon. If they don't they are just opening the doors to third parties. Honestly I would prefer the full team of Dinobots over a wreckers repaint of Bruticus.

Also, I'm glad there is some remolding on that voyager Blaster but on early impressions, I'm still not convinced on the mold.

This times a thousand. Why do they get no love?! Robot dinosaurs, they print money!
Not caring about scale since 1984. Just like Hasbro.

I agree, that Grimlock is gonna be killer, but it looks like it transforms just like it did in the 80s. The head/neck flips back, the dinosaur legs become the robot arms, the dinosaur tail splits in two and becomes the robot legs. Not that original. Great detailing, and size mind you. Definitely knocks classics Grimlock out of the park. But they used this transformation in the 80s. And for animated Grimlock.
Just sayin...

Oh, and if Blaster turns into a vehicle with a little chair on top for someone to ride, why does he turn into a boom box once he finally makes it to Earth? lol...

thought that was funny...

All of the sudden I feel a targeting laser on my back...

God bless Matt Teiger and High Moon studios for making this Grimlock possible. Seeing this makes me laugh that Hasbro were going to retire the Dinobots. This is the best looking Grimlock since the G1 design (I'm including the Masterpiece under G1 design).

I don't understand what the problem is with using the design. If it works, it work. There's only so many ways you can transform a T-rex.
