Gawd, the wings on Thrust and Dirge. So unwise. BotCon FTW.

Yeah, the new seekers are an aquired taste but they're growing on me. I'm just glad I'll get to own them and that they're different enough from the BotCon versions to not cause hard feelings.

As for Hound, the Henkei version is awesome! I'm so glad I preordered it. The box art should kick ass.

DinoGrimlock's arms are teeny-weeny. Wonder how fragile they are...

Cyclonus is clearly the universe vesion and so is cheetor

Grimlock looks better and better each time I see him

Why does March have to be sooo far away? That Grimlock looks better every time we see new pictures of it! I'm glad I pre-ordered this. However it does look small, the size of the seekers roughly. So for the price of it, it better have more die-cast to it.

Hound w/Ravage looks great as well! Must go pre-order him now! I'm gonna go broke with all these new TFs coming out... :sad:

More to the point, that isn't even the final version of Cyclonus. That beige on Cyc's nosecone and on Nightstick is purple now.

I love that pic of Grimlock looking upwards So bloody Godzilla like!

From one of the pictures it looks like Grimlock's head moves when you move the tail.

Yea Grimlock is all super cool and stuff, But look at that Alternity Megatron art!

The waist armor and Fusion cannon look amazingly detailed and awesome. I hope that the concept art translated well into the actual figure.

That Gimlock looks Amazing!! i have to get him!

Ol Grimmy looks to be a smallish MP but I can't wait to get him anyway.

by **Cyberjet #7** » Sat Nov 29, 2008 2:01 pm

MP Grimy is a huge pass for me. Way too small for the price. No matter how many different pics of him I see and no matter who else is in the pics for size comparison, he's just on the small side.

Plus another Grimlock seems like overkill - I want someone I haven't already seem four or five different molds of this year.

Come on. Grimlock is Grimlock!!! And a masterpiece to boot! He's a must have for me. Already preordered two: one to have AFA grade, and the other one for play. :grin:
