Takara Tomy has released the second item of the Device Label series, this time is the operating optical mouse - Grimlock and Dinosaurer.
Thanks to アルフェス2010 for uploaded the gallery of Device Label Grimlock & Dinosaurer, we get to see the transformation details and gimmicks of the product such as light up faction logo etc.

And Blaster is right ther eon the box. It's like they're teasing us!

On the mouse: it looks MUCh more like the planned Dinobot and nothing like Grimlock. And why is Trypticon always a tiny dinosaur now? Cool colors tho.

RIP Blaster...

Had they left one of these guys Overkill I would probably would have bought it since the whole device label concept would have been more suited to him.

Man, they really chose the wrong characters for these. As Grimlock and Trypticon they are garbage. As Overkill and Dinobot they could have been passable. Might wait and see what KO companies come up with. Don't need a optical mouse anyway. That way we would have had two Decepticons and two Maximals.

They look alright, but not great. And I do collect Grimlocks, but since this one was never intended to be him and looks nothing like him, I'll pass.

Why the corny 2 in one gimmicks all the time ??? Seriously, is anybody actually gonna use this as a mouse ??? Or is this just some kind of a stocking stuffer meant for the collector who has everything ??? I know some people gonna hate me for saying this, but Im glad they cancelled Blaster. Blaster needs to transform into a 1980's style boombox, not some PDA, 2-way pager or whatever the cancelled toy transformed into. I just hate catchy gimmicks...no offense.

He was a USB hub which could connect with the other Device Label guys. And his bot mode could accept the old G1 tapes (doesn't make a lick of sence for a USB hub, but I couldn't care less).

I dunno, I got over the old "must conform to G1 slavishly" a long time ago. If Megatron can be a tank and Optimus can be a car, then Blaster can be a USB Hub. Hell, Grimlock and Tripticon are mice who transform into Raptors.

These are just chock full of fail IMO. The proportions are weird (their hips are ungodly big) and they've got pinheads. And the least Takara could have done at this price was make them wireless.

For a mouse that transforms it costs way too much..
