Some of you may already have their hands on the recently released BluRay edition of Transformers: Age of Extinction. And some of you may have seen the special features regarding the design and production process for the toys. Which also means you may have spotted a Dinobot shaped intruder: could this be our first look at the upcoming Robots in Disguise animated series Grimlock figure? Check out the image below, via fellow fan HaltroN1 on Twitter!

Ah, so now there actually IS something in RID-II that looks like it came from Animated.

And hot on the heels of the Rifftrax live Broderick-zilla show, he has a bit of Cruellock/Doomlock in his design!

I am very interested to see it painted.Reminds me of TFA Grimlock.

So far,all of the RID figures are awesome,especially legion Optimus.I would also like to see a RID Bulkhead.BTW,this Grimlock reminds me of Godzilla.

Huh, not to shabby. This toy line is giving me fond memories of TFA.

It looks kinda like a mix of new Godzilla and Animated Grimlock.

This looks great. I am mostly intrigued by the new transformation which seems to have his feet become his jaw. That will give him some fun asymetry as you can see where the body would become two halves. Looking forward to it already.

Horrible. Money saved. I have no interest in any of the RID figures. Ill wait until TFCC repurposes the molds with new heads for classics collections.

Grimlock? Again? Can we focus on something more than just Dinobots? The Monsterbots haven't been used yet.

Grimlock being in the new RID series is nothing but old news.

I think he's green, if that helps. More Dinobots is always cool though. They've been ignored for decades, I'm totally fine with a few years of saturation.

Fantastic
Grimlock's in AoE for what, 4 minutes? and we get a million T Rex's flooding stores in one way or another. Now there's a series that features him? Oh boy

very bulky. hope the bot mode looks cool.

well, it seems that all the other dinobots have been forgotten. all hasbro cares about now is grimlock since he was AOE for 10 minutes.

Looks cool, Godzilla influence makes him different than the movie/animated/classics.

Haven't seen that much about the new RID 2 series.

It's set for the start of 2015?

Could be wrong but I think it's set to start in April or May of 2015. Like this design, but am def hoping for more representations of other Dinobots as well. Having fun with the AOE ones in the mean time.

I like this, and I like the shift back to the bigger under jaw of animated grimlock. Also optimalOptimus2@ grimlock being in RiD is old news, but shots of his possible toy is new news.

We don't know for 100% certainty that this is Grimlock. There's been no confirmation, it's only a guess.

For all we know, this green Dinobot could be a whole new character.

This is a fact.

That said, if it is indeed Grimlock, it's pretty clever to make him green given the name of the series

Uoaaah! GARIMROCK! GARIMROCK! RUN!

I refuse to acknowledge that as "Grimlock", only as "Build Hurricane"

It slightly resembles AOE Grimlock from How to Ride Your Dinobot:

It's mostly the proportions (HUEG CHIN), but still.

Where are we getting the "green" Dinobot part from now? This is clearly just a prototype cast in resin.

There's production or some teaser footage somewhere showing a green T-Rex. I'll go hunt for it.


edit: found it, not sure this got news'd here on Seibertron :/ http://www.allspark.com/content/2014/07 ... mlock-rid/

Somehow, it did not. This is all we have from those days:

Ah OK, never seen that.

That said, that mug shot does look real close to this, so yeah, that's likely who this guy is.
