Official Images: "Grimlock Unleashed" Kre-O Set

Posted by Mindmaster May 31, 2014 at 7:44pm CDT 25,755 views
Straight from the official Transformers Facebook page, we now have wind of a brand new Age of Extinction Kre-O set, and it's one that we're certain is going to please Kre-O fans! The new set is dubbed "Grimlock Unleashed", which features a 333-piece build of the Dinobot leader in his unexpectedly Generation One dino mode (it's uncertain if it has a robot mode build), and features Kreons of Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Galvatron, Lockdown, and Grimlock, the latter of which the page claims to come with a crown. As with all of the Age of Extinction Kre-O sets, this set is exclusive to Toys "R" Us. Check out the image below!

The in hand pics I've seen have all but confirmed there is no robot build for Grimlock. I hope the legs are strong enough to support the weight of the torso.

Personally, the only thing I really want to know about the set is when exactly it's going to be released! :grin:

As far as I know it should be on shelves now.

Due to a deeply rooted bias for Lego, I've been ignoring Kre-O up until now. This set has changed my mind.

Target.com has updated their website to include a listing for their exclusive Age of Extinction two-pack of Optimus Prime and Grimlock, and so far, it's listed as in-stock! As a refresher for those who are unaware of this anticipated exclusive, Optimus Prime is a chromed redeco of the Dark of the Moon Deluxe, with a sword borrowed from Generation One Predacon Rampage, and Fall of Cybertron Grimlock with a slavish Generation One-inspired redeco, complete with chromed pecks!

Curiously, the listing names Grimlock as "Ivan", which was Grimlock's codename during production to combat leaks.

To order your set, visit the page here!

They also have the exclusive Grimlock/Prime Constructbots set, White Knight crash and change, and the White Titan figure.

Didn't notice the sword is a g1 accessory! That's such a wonderfully strange touch.

They seem to doing stuff like that a lot recently. The two that come to mind immediately include Platinum Edition Predaking coming with the Star Saber that came with Beast Hunters Commander-class Optimus Prime, and the upcoming Age of Extinction Evolutions Grimlock set that gives the "classic" Grimlock a red version of Generation One Razorclaw's sword.

I've heard that there will be a set of G1 Predacons' swords available for the BotCon set this year.

It's at least the best looking of all the Silver Knight Optimus Prime toys since it's both a decent mold and actually silver instead of that ugly dull gray that the rest of the Silver Knight OPs are. :)

Thry also have a few other Taget-exclusive items up, the Construct-Bots Grimlock/Optimus two-pack, the gray Smash and Change Prime, and the non-transforming Silver Knight Optimus Prime. In case anyone cares about any of those.

wow $30 i would've thought it be higher than that, but i have no reason to get this i have both molds & neither are good enough to buy again. Only way id pick this up is if it were on clearance for a really good price.

I kinda want these.

I'll be looking into getting both the Grimlock & Prime set, you can't really beat the DotM Deluxe mold, as well as the Kre-O Grimlock for the Grimlock Kreon alone. Just need a spare black Soundwave helmet :lol:
