does anyone know where to get any g1 dinobots.(mainly grimlock)

ebay or sometimes transformerland.com also wheeljackslab.com

Bigbadtoystore may get the odd loose dinobot, however, i wouldn't bank on any of them ever being in mint condition or complete. For complete dinobots ebay is pretty much your only option but expect to have to pay through the nose, especially for Grimlock and Swoop.

Grimlock I understand the big price for...he was huge in the later eps of the show...but Swoop? Yeah, he's great...he's the only Dinobot I owned...but why the big price tag?

Swoop is extremely hard to find complete and/or in good shape. He was very easy to break.

amen to that. The "bird head" is extremely fragile at the neck and the clear beak is prone to breakage. Mine has a hairline crack in the beak

Another reason was Swoop was never released in the UK (and other regions I suspect), meaning us mad UK fans will pay more than he's probably worth to get him!
Grimlock and the others, however, were plentiful on these shores!
