I tried. I was out bid. Jeez, $23 w/shipping. I never had a Grimlock. I didn't like the new Classics one. Now that he's grown on me, he got expensive. :shock:

He's not that great. He looks cool in dino mode. but his robot mode has some flaws. 20 seems a little steep.

Well, I figured what the heck. I snagged him for $15.99 + $6.00 shipping. Before you know it, those greedy sellers will be asking $30+ for him.

Well guess I was smart to pick up a few of them at $9.99 then...lol. I think the toy sucks and walking on teeth is stupid. I had high hopes. But for a few bucks more than what you paid you could get a real G1. I just got one for $26.

I was not really impressed with him. He stays in Dino mode most of the time.

The Dino mode is cool but the robot modes giant hooker boots and scrawny jaw feet ruin the toy for me.

I still see a few of these, I saw one at TRU for $13 yesterday morning and a Wal-Mart 30 minutes from here had 2 or 3 a few weeks ago on clearance for $7.

I'd say he's worth it. Yes, he's not one of the better designed Classics figs, but his dino mode is still pretty sweet. Just think, you're wallet will easily heal and Grimlock will still be yours.

I gotta say I love his dino mode and if you cant find him in the stores, then yes paying $20 for him on ebay just for his dino mode alone is worth it IMO..

If you really want it yes, if you want it for a collection 50/50 - up to you.

I had to import it for a little more, and I don't regret my decision.

AHAHHAHA, I knew his legs reminded me of something.

Overcracker is right.

I bought him, and, trust me, Hasbro dropped the ball on a great opportunity here.

He is worth $10...at best.

In fact, I would like my money back as opposed to keeping him. Just like the protoforms...
