Second verse same as the first.
A little bit louder but not the least bit worse.
:P

While I wish Grimmy had his accessories(apron, Computron helmut, etc.) if I see this I'll probably get it. I never got the first TRU version way back whenever, and his crown certainly does look nice. Now all he needs is a throne!

Oh my gosh....I JUST noticed that in these pictures, Grimlock's dino-mode feet are turned backwards in the out of package pic. With the box presumably available as a reference. Photography fail. :lol:

Is anyone besides me tempted to get another MP Grimlock so I can open one? (I still have the original MISP)

Also, I'm curious about the size of Prowl's packaging. I know the new MP packaging isn't one size fits all, but with as small as Prowl is in comparison to Acid Storm and Soundwave, I wonder if his box will be noticeably smaller, too.

Well, Acid Storm and Soundwave had differently-sized boxes from one another, so Prowl's box will probably be a different size too.

Right...I just wonder exactly how small it will be. I have both Soundwave and Acid Storm, but I like seeing size comparisons. Wish they'd shown a picture of him next to his box so I could get an idea.

I volunteer for freelance work so long as I can share my photos on Seibertron.com.

Is it just my monitor, or does the clear plastic on Grimlock's dino-neck & robot-chest have a yellow-greenish tint? Also, I'm worried about actually being able to find Prowl in-store or to catch one on-line at TRU.com. |:|

What's so exclusive about these toys? Aside from the boxart obviously , they are the same as the Takara release. :-? :???:

These will be 'exclusively' released to general retail via Toys 'R' Us stores. ;)

Where did those shoulder mounted missile launchers come from in the Seinertron pic of Prowl?

You're right, it does have a slight tint. It appears a bit greenish, as the blue tint and the yellow chest mix up.

The 1 I have is out of the box and on a shelf. How can you keep an awesome figure like that imprisoned? It needs to roam free! :D That reminds me, he's been in the same position since I got him 3 years ago. :lol:

yeah.. i always find it extremely lame when people keep such great figures in a box.. spend all that money just for a box... lame.

such an insult to the engineers and designers of the toy.

Amazon Japan, originally. Though, I wouldn't know where Ryan got those particular ones since other online retailers have gotten a hold of some of those missile launchers from Amazon. But they originally came from Amazon Japan since one missile launcher each was their incentive exclusive for purchasing Prowl or Streak from that site.

I scaled up the Prowl box in PS and I estimate it is going to be 10" x 10". Unless this fig comes with the amazon launchers I am going to pass since I already own the TT version. The box is just too big and my TT version is perfect.

I want to say that Grimlock is the usual $75, while Prowl is like $50-ish.
