He is a dual-homage to both Dinobot Magma-Type from Transformers: Super Link (Japanese Energon) in Dino mode and Activators Fireblast Grimlock from Transformers Animated in Robot Mode (and name).

Im skipping this one. They really should have gone for the blue G2 repaint instead. It would have sold better. Now they'll probably come out with Zenith Forge and Iron Factory sets in red to make him look halfway decent.

Highly unlikely I'll get this one. I don't think I'd want another Grimlock on my shelf as it wort of waters down the awesomeness of the character.

That deco is so awesome. Red totally suits Grimlock's intense rage and fury. :KREMZEEK:

What color LED does he use? I hate it when they use green or blue plastic but put a red LED behind it...

I really really like the shade of yellow they used for the sword and shield.

When I get mine, Dinobot Magma Type will ride it, not Optimus.
