Buying. These two are SO pre-ordered.

And when Grimy sells a TON maybe Hastak will finally accept that the Dinos are popular, will sell and they should get off their lazy asses and make the other four just to shut me up....and make everyone else very happy.

I am now absolutely torn - MP Grimmy or FoC Grimmy for my Classics? It's hard to decide...

Hello Grimlock! COME TO PAPA, YOU LIL DINO YOU! I waaaaaant. This is perhaps the best reveal of SDCC so far. The only question is, do I put him on the classics shelf or WFC/FoC shelf? He looks way cool but I need one Grimlock per shelf and I have a feeling the classics one will look funny with FoC toys. Although, next to the FoC deluxes, the classics version will look huge. :HEADHURTS:

Blaster: At first I was a bit peeved he's just a remold, but it's a pretty good remold. I appreciate that they made an effort to have his gun look like it should, and the chest piece is rather cool. I'm still torn on getting Soundwave because I have the WFC deluxe, but I'll definitely pick up Blaster. 3 versions of this mold already though? That's a bit excessive...

Starscream: Buy.

Ultra Magnus: Too blue, but buy.

Insectiwhatever: Unsure, maybe buy.

Sideswipe: Real cool bro. Better than Jazz. Might try to get another on clearance and do some part-swapping to jazz-up Jazz a little. He could use a black hip piece.

Fireflight/whateverthey'recallinghimnow: Probably buy but I'll wait for a sale because it's a repaint.


Crap. It's going to be an expensive year. Assuming we actually see any of these figures here, that is. Still haven't seen PRiD Wave 2... :BANG_HEAD:

But dang, SDCC is making me so happy. There's a lot to look forward to. :D

I think its simple because they cannot do 2 dozen repaints, really sad though a new Swoop or Slag would be great.

The answer is simple: Hasbro are morons. They seem intent on proving it these days.


I completely agree with you, this was such a missed opportunity for sales!

I'm still in awe at that Grimlock. I've said it a few times but I believe it to be true, if Hasbro don't make the other 4 Dinobots, they only have themselves to blame when a third party company makes them. If we have Grimlock, most fans will want the rest of the team.

if they just ship Grimlock, Blaster and the Sound-brothers in a case, it'd make my ordering easier. :P Am still happy with my MP Grim, but this one seems better scaled in robot mode at least, and the dino mode is pretty awesome. Blaster is a good retool/repaint of the decent looking Soundwave and I like all the little robobabies they have.

Ok, so if it's Spring 2013 for the US, how long is it going to be until it shows up in Europe?

A year from now?
