The MP's all the way! They'll be harder to get down the road - but you can get a hooker any time!

As far as I know, MP Grimlock is a Hasbro initiated product. Grimlock isn't as big in asia as he is in "the west" and Hasbro want him on sale for the 25th anniversary..

MP/20th...
Prime?!?
I realise the MP line has realyl raised the bar since his conception, but you have to realise what a masive jump in design quality and practices he was when he came out.
You gotta remember he was designed a good 2 or 3 years before any of the other MPs, and he wasnt designed as part of an ongoing line.---------------------------------------------------------------
Anyway...
Grimlock looks like he may well be awesome sauce.
But one thing...
Where's his tail in robot mode?

I would be happy if they designed the double barrel cannon to fit inside his Alt Mode. I also like how the tail is concealed in the Robot mode. The other details are too difficult to see clearly.
