Probably not.

I will definitely be getting that new Grimlock. My only other RID figure so far is Strongarm so this one will be a welcome addition. I love that he has the battle mask. Hopefully they will change his colors in the show to these.

I am already very bored with this toyline... only 2-3 new figures per wave, wave's are spread out for months, and they're just the same characters in different sizes or colors. Why they're not offering all the Decepticons in deluxe class is beyond me.

Heroes sell better and don't need new molds. It's a double win for hasbro. And plus, we will be getting 3 new decepticon warriors soon but Hasbro is waiting for SDCC or Botcon to show them.

I think getting this Grimlock might be worthwhile even if the scale is really off. So far, I have only been getting the Takara versions because they are the same price and have way better paint apps. But judging from the past, redecos seem to be exclusive to each company. And while Gregevor and Phantom Steeljoe mightbe exclusive to Takara, I feel this G1 Grimlock will be exclusive to Hasbro. I am sure he will look better in hand and in dino mode. Looking forward to those pictures.

huh. I want that Bee and that Grimlock...and I'm not a fan of this line

But dang, they look nice.

Ugh. The return of black bumblebees...

Gah! That is not "gold". I am so sad, I may have to pass on this now. I liked the gold on the package but this just looks like that hideous pseudo metallic orange on those ugly versions of the AOE Grimlock.

I agree. I'm not a huge fan of the series, and I'm not being a completest on the line, but the few I have I like.

I also picked up the Takara Nemesis Prime, and now I want to get the regular release Deluxe Prime. I like those so much I may get some of the legion classes to round out a small display.

Is TakaraTomy Nemesis Prime back in Stock anywhere?

I'll take that over possible Gold Plastic Syndrome any day I just pray they fixed the elbows on this release!

That's why we have paint apps...

I hate to say it but I think that's the color Grimlock will be. It looks very close to the bronze the AOE toy was and you know they have to pull in those homages. I was lucky with my first Grimlock, then again I didn't spend much time with it, so I might double dip on this one. Do wish a weapon was included this time.

Bumblebee looks ok but in that case I think I might wait to see what other options show up down the line, there is a One-Step Night Ops figure floating around out there...

The Legion figures look good but to my eyes that single pack Bumblebee looks the same as the one from the two pack with Underbite. Judging on past releases the two pack might be the better value option.

I just checked Robot Kingdom, they have the cases in stock and that's the only way they're selling the figures. 2 each of the new ones and carryovers from previous waves.

Booyah! I'm so getting that Grimlock! Red Sideswipe too and possibly Jazz. Strongarm is fairly tempting too. They may look a little out of place on my TFP shelf, but they're technically the same universe.

Since when is orange gold? Id probably pick up the grimlock thats on the box art but no way would i get the one thats actually in the box, hasbro fails again.

Looks nothing like the package made it out to look. I think this colour is hideous.

We got it all wrong guys. This isn't gold armor Grimlock, it's Coast Guard Ops Grimlock!

*looks at Grim*

*looks at Carys sig*

OMG It's GRalpha BravoLOCK!

Cover your mouth when you sneeze dude! You got that all over me.

Glad I decided against getting "Greenlock", and hopefully this will actually release in my area. I'm hopeful, since RiD15 actually does seem to come out here.

Did anyone notice the new headsculpt on Grimlock? I was expecting they'd give him his show mouthplate on a G1 redeco, at least it makes him look more G1

shajaki wrote:Awww... Tsu why did you have to mention BB's yellow wheels? Can't unsee

I was considering getting him until I saw that he had cheese for wheels. Nevermind that.
