Thanks to an interview with Hasbro designer Evan Brooks on Comicbook.com, we have another reveal for Transformers Tuesday, Shattered Glass Grimlock! A recolor of SS86 Leader Class Grimlock, we can see SG Grimlock in all his glory. His coloring takes inspiration from Trypticon; many Shattered Glass figures take their color schemes from their regular universe counterparts.

Transformers Generations Shattered Glass Grimlock

(Ages 8 and Up | Approx. Retail Price: $54.99 | Available: Summer 2023)

The Transformers Generations Shattered Glass Collection shatters everything fans know about the Transformers robots in an alternate universe where the heroic Decepticons battle the evil Autobots. The Transformers Generations Shattered Glass Grimlock is a leader class action figure that stands at 8.5″ tall and can convert from robot to T.rex mode in 23 steps. The toy’s Shattered Glass universe-inspired design includes the iconic purple Autobot logo that make it great for both an adult collectible or toy for boys and girls. The action figure also includes a dual-barreled blaster that attaches in both modes. The new Transformers Generations Shattered Glass Grimlock will be available for pre-order in April at Hasbro Pulse and other major retailers.”

Oooo, that deco looks really snazzy on him.

That looks sharp. They don't mention a comic, so I guess we're not getting Shattered Glass III.

Makes sense to not have a Comic. IDW isn't writing the series anymore, and the final issue of Shattered Glass II was left simultaneously open ended and final note.

The big news here is it isn't a Pulse exclusive, looks like it'll be sold in the same place as Selects figures.

He looks great, but the bright white stands out too much. It's probably pearlescent white, but they really should have gone with silver.

Well that looks great as expected, eagerly anticipating it going up in April.

In addition to both those points: presumably by virtue of not including the comic, this is the first SG Collection figure with no markup, he's the same price as Skyquake and Snarl according to this description.

Definitely ready to add Trypticon JR to the Shattered Glass collection.

Check that. He is the same price, but they cut an accessory. Admittedly a very lousy accessory, but one nonetheless

Grimlock was always 70s Mecha Godzilla to me and the silver deco worked. Tripticon was more like 80's Mecha Godzilla and the colors on that figure worked well. Crossing the designs/decos just doesn't work for me, something just seems off.

Whoa this is even better than G2 Grimlock IMO....it's a total buy....'nuff said! :VEHI:

I actually like the darker gray better. If that thing was commander-sized and had a Con symbol on it, I might get it and pretend it's G1 comic Trypticon, who was smaller than his cartoon version. :lol:

Now I would love the rest of the Dinos in SG colors, whatever the decos are.

Those colors look really nice. I wish he had a new head or at least a sword, but oh well.

Honestly, the existing Titan class version is pretty close to how big Trypticon was in the Marvel comics, as no City-forming Titan is actually in scale with any of the Deluxe-and-up figures.

If they aren't beholden to a Specific Comic series anymore, I would love to see some other Heavy Hitters in their SG decos.

Like Shockwave, Rodimus, Thundercracker (maybe with Skywarp as a dual pack?), Sideswipe, Prowl, Ironhide, etc.

Yeah, I know. But I have restricted space and I can't accommodate Titan Trypticon.

Is the original G1 figure about Commander-sized?

According to the toy galleries on this very site, the OG figure definitely seems to be a size that you might have an easier time storing/displaying!

Two things the powers should have done IMO to make Grimlock even greater was given him from chompers to the front of his jaw and the other the color of his arms in dino mode. I think any other color that was used would have provided a nice break up. :-D
