Well, I'm bored at work today, so here's this:

For Grimlock, there's a simplified one (RiD):

Then there's the Leader:

And the Voyager:

I believe the first one is the Stomp and Chomp Grimlock the second Leader Class Grimlock and the third is the Deluxe Grimlock

I don't like S&CG and LCG the Deluxe class Grimlock is alright but wont be getting it

According the list posted in this very thread, Grimlock is a Voyager, not a Deluxe.

I think it's good for kids but I'll be staying away from it. I'm disappointed because I like the movie aesthetic. Well, I did up until now but the they seem to be going rather generic this time.

The one thing i like about this line is the hand weapons Guns Swords Knives the lot :michaelbay:

Hound - Easily the best looking one out of the lot , excellent head sculpt , No back pack and full of detail.

Armed to the teeth with eight weapons and stores them all , in his boots on his hips, back, chest .

Alt mode looks accurate and detailed plus stores all the weapons as far as i can see.

This guy looks full of win to me .

Personally i have no need for a leader class Hound , i would have liked a leader Galvatron with a better transformation than the voyager to get rid of that back pack .

It seems to be this way with every movie , TFM1 no Blackout , ROTF no Fallen , DOTM no Megatron or Shockwave , AOE no Galvatron and there all Decpticons .

The suits at Hasbro must hate decepticons then I really wanted a

leader class Blackout
leader class (DOTM) Megatron
leader class Shockwave

we might get a AOE LC Galvatron sometime much later

The Voyager Grimlock looks great. I hope it doesn't suffer from Gold Plastic Syndrome. Otherwise I'll have to wait for a repaint, then customize it to have show accurate colors.

To me, I'd have to say, they are more like Godzillas than transformers.
Besides, the guy who designed AOE Leader class optimus has no talent in this design field.

I hope there is a Leader Class Lockdown figure so I can repaint it into a real Galvatron
you know with a Purple/Silver/Red colour scheme Lockdown would be nice as he does seem too transform into a cannon. actually I don't know if lockdown is the one that transforms into a cannon

AoE is falling into the same trap as DotM, where there's really only two alt modes: cars and, in this case, dinosaurs. Hopefully later waves add more variety, but I'm not keeping my hopes up.


On Dinobots, I'd want them in the same scale as these BH Predacons:
monsters.jpg
That is, Cyberverse

On the automobiles vehicles, I'd prefer them to be roughly in scale with these:
1-60alt.jpg
~ 1/60 Scale, i.e. Legion cars, Deluxe trucks

But it doesn't look like we'll be getting any of those..........

Ehh not a big fan of TF Prime Predaking each figure has something wrong with it

the 2013 Voyager Class figure has a too simple paint job mostly at his wings

the Ultimate Class has a silly head bobbing feature and I would much prefer a flexible tail

the 2014 Voyager Class looks too skinny and the tail is the sword making it too bulky and stiff too look any good.

but probably the ultimate version is the best of the three
