I actually like the WST version the best. It just looks so freaking sweet. Classics Grimlock is my second choice.

The rest of the Dinobots were there as well, but they were the G1 correct colors. All $50 each, so I passed on them.

Can anyone tell me what line that blue Grimmy came from?

I'm afraid you passed on one of the rarest Grimlocks around. the Generation 2 blue Grimlock. I'd go running back to the store and buy it.

Ugh, now I feel really miserable for breaking mine when I was 7.

I'm a G1 Grimmy kind of guy.

And with Classics Grim my complaint is the legs. It looks like he has no thighs because of how big the dino torso is. The shoulders don't bother me at all, but then again mine is pretty tight, like a tiger.

I know people have a problem with the 'activation' ports.

"Why can't Transformers use their abilities without the help of Mini-Cons?", is what they say.

It's a fair enough issue.

What I like is the idea that the smaller robots have a defined use in this capacity. Activation aside, they can be power packs, weapons, shields...Much the same way that the Armada game works.

These guys take the whole "Master" process and give it a more practical bend.

Just my not so humble opinion.

Ok, but I don't understand how having a fire truck or a dinosaur stuck to your arm gives you magical shield powers, or any kind of magic powers.

When I need magical assistance, I summon these monsters that I capture in red and white ball-like appartatus.

Not at all keen on Animated 'Lock- that massive underbite thing is a major turn off from the usual, creepy face-plate (with the li'l pointy teeth things on the sides)

How about kitbashing all the Animated Dinos and "reformat" them into the Classics look?
