Thing is, in the game, Grimlock is not some shiny new model fresh off the assembly line. He's war-torn, abused, and in very bad shape. He likes to get down and dirty without worrying about his paint finish, so for his colors to be dulled here makes perfect sense for his warzone situation.camzilla51 wrote:Now it's not just a lack of paint apps, we've driven this point into the ground through recent years.. But the color of the plastic itself is visually dull and disappointing. It's not gold, it's tan (where were they with Swindle?) or even a yellowish brown, but far from gold. The developers of the game worked painstakingly to achieve metallic realism, and this figure is far from that look. Thankfully, Takara has been fixing that with their copies, and if their Grimlock is as beautiful as their Bruticus, I'm gonna sit and wait for it. Grimlock is worth it.
What gimmicks would those be? All I see is the light up feature, which this time is executed FAR better than anything the TF: Prime Voyagers have given us. and it fits in line with his portrayal in the video game since he'd breath fire in dino mode and his body would glow in robot mode just as his transformation to dino mode is triggered. The light up feature emulates both fairly enough.peaces wrote:hasbro would rather build grimlock around stupid gimmicks than make a nice figure.
