Weapon: Null-Ray Rifle
The backpack, I can deal with, but hopefully those tiny dino-arms tuck away for a less obtrusive look.

BTW, is his shield and sword clear red or orange? Some pics show them as clear orange, but in other pics they look red.

I'd rather have the plastic be tan. Just say no to gps.

Are there problems with this figure? Possibly.
Is it still a good toy for $20-$25? Most likely.
Is it going to make a nice addition to my collection? Definitely.

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.
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.

The reason he looks all shimmering and new in the promotional CG model renders is because those are meant to grab our attention of the game. They're supposed to look nice and neat so that we may want to buy and play the game. In the game itself, Grimlock's doing all kinds of brutal combat that there's no way he'd keep squeaky clean enough to look like a glossy gold/silver beauty.

If Takara does manage to churn out a metallic version that does resemble Grimlock after nice wash and wax session, that's cool. But this Hasbro version still looks like this Grimlock's been through a lot of unpleasant harshness, which fits in line with the game's events.

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.

Aside from that, the only other "gimmicks" (if you can call them that) I see are:
  • His large size
  • His sword and shield
  • His Space T-Rex altmode
To which I respond with, um, hello? GRIMLOCK! ;)

Really wish he didn't look like he was making duck lips from the front in robot mode. :-(

Maybe I missed it in the pics but does his sword and shield store any where in Dino mode or do you just set them off to the side when in dino mode??

Does it count if his sword is attachable to his T-Rex mode's hips?
