While it largely looks like the final design, it does feature an alternate (very G1 looking) head. Scroll down to see the art and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for all your Transformers News!
Is it just me, or is that G1 styled head looking a bit like it could be a battle mask?

I'm pretty sure its obvious that's what it is.
Some of Grimlock's toys have that battle mask (without the visor)
That and the fact that everyone and their motherboard has a battle mask in RID I'm pretty sure Grimlock will use this mask in future episode(s).

The Legion figure has the blue visor, though they painted the mask gold.

Though, I would be okay with it used as a battle mask, but so far, Grimlock hasn't had a battle mask in any of the first 14 episodes.

It's red on the final version, thankfully.TGS1985 wrote:Huh, a Yellow Autobot symbol. I don't recall every seeing one in that color. That said, I can't help but imagine it being something that would drive IDW Ultra Magnus nuts, lol.

Right, but still interesting that it was a consideration at one point in the design process.

Beware, some of these may contain spoilers, as none have aired in the US or Australia yet, and we're talking about a good advance compared to at least the US show. If you're so inclined, head below to read what's coming on June 10th and 17th on Canal J - translated from French!
16 - Sideswipe loses his head
When the latest team training session leaves Sideswipe wiped out, the young Autobot realises he cannot always rely on physical strength.
17 - Honour above all
Drift returns to Earth in pursuit of Jetstorm. Meanwhile, Bumblebee's team must face an escaped Springload and Quillfire.
18 - Grimlock's Wound
Unaware of Grimlock hiding a severe wound, Bumblebee and the team head towards the ocean in pursuit of a Decepticon.
19 - The champion
Groundpounder, an ancient gladiator become Decepticon, escapes and joins a TV fighting program. Grimlock will have to face him.
20 - Malfunction
Fixit's glitch becomes worse. Denny tries fixing it, but accidentally triggers his security programming. Fully armed, Fixit turns on the others.
21 - Siege
Steeljaw and his gang manage to enter the junkyard, and try freeing the cryofrozen Decepticons while keeping the Autobots away thanks to a sonic wave field. Our heroes will have to show cunning and strategy to enact their plan and take back their base.

As for a new Decepticon called, Groundpounder, he will face Grimlock for the very first time. Does that mean that Groundpounder will be the second rival to Grimlock, next to Underbite?
In episode #18, the entire Autobot team travels to the ocean to search for an escaped Decepticon. Could this mean the return of Hammerstrike, a brand-new Decepticon, or both?

I'm guessing it's a new one. Bumblebee and Grimlock took down Hammerstrike by themselves, so the whole team going after him doesn't seem likely.

Where does it say he wants to kill the Autobots?psj333 wrote:steeljaw is planning to free all the Decepticons and threatened to kills the Autobots if they get in his way.
Except that the ocean episode comes BEFORE the episode Steeljaw tries to free the other Decepticons.psj333 wrote:So, I`m pretty sure that we might be able to see Hammerstrike again for the second time,

So in other words, it's not a fact that he's trying to kill anyone, but is instead just your interpretation of the description.psj333 wrote:Sabrblade, in episode #21, Steeljaw is using aonic field to keep Autobots away, according to the plot description. Don't forget, Hasbro has stated that he is the most dangerous and most fearsome Decepticon to date. To me, that enough to say that Steeljaw is planning to use threats if he has to.![]()
