Video Review of Transformers Authentics Bravo Class Grimlock

Posted by ZeroWolf Feb 7, 2019 at 9:54am CST 19,185 views
Following the surprise release of Bravo Class Megatron in the Transformers Authentics line, ChuckDawg1999 brings us a video review of his wave mate and another surprise release in the form of Grimlock! This Grimlock is down scaled from its Alpha Class release so is more pocket money friendly then you would normally find for similar sized releases in the other Transformers lines.

Also thanks to fellow Seibertron user, TFanPage101, for sending this in to us as well!

This is what Chuck has to say on Bravo Class Grimlock:

Chuckdawg1999 wrote:To my surprise, Hasbro downscaled their Wave 1 Alpha Class Grimlock to a pocket-friendly size. Transformation is identical to the larger scaled figure but as to be expected, paint details are lost and the small dino arms are just molded in. Bravo Class Grimlock makes for the perfect desk toy and is fun to have.


We have mirrored the review for you below for your convenience, enjoy!

Is it bad that I keep forgetting these guys even are a thing? These guys could be so much better but they just come across as cheap. I don't own any of these toys so I can't speak on terms of their quality but they're just so hollow. I guess it makes sense since they're only a few bucks.

Also the figure looks okay, but it certainly doesn't make me say want to say "Bravo!", more like "Cool, ...I guess?"

the plastic are surprisingly solid and sturdy, should be able to withstand children's rough play, and all the joints are tight and nice. But yeah, when you get a deluxe sized figure for $5 and voyager sized one for $10, i don't think we can really expect too much at that price points.

10-12$ is pretty cheap for a figure that big.

They're that much? Huh. I was always under the impression they were 7 to 8.

Huh. You don't get much for a buck anymore.

Wait they cost HOW MUCH?

Whoa, you don't get much for that either, apparently.

Considering they are cheaper and bigger then their more advanced brethren in the Siege and Studio Series line, I think those that are on that budget level will be thankful.

On the German Brandora website, we have some images of the never before seen Transformers Authentics Titan Changers, branded for Generations! Titan Changers are large, very simple Transformers, with limited articulation and paint, for a low cost, and were often sold for the movie lines and Robots in Disguise '15. The characters utilize Emiliano Santalucia's evergreen design, which have been used previously for Authentics, as well as the Cyberverse cartoon!

The characters presented are Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Bumblebee, all who were set to release in May 2019, though none have shown up yet. While there is no set price, you think these toys are worth it for kids? Tell us your general thoughts in the Pub forums below.

I'll be blunt. Those look like TRASH in all modes. However, if they are solidly built, cheap, and big, those will be pretty damn awesome for lil' Jimmy's first Transformers.

Megatron's tank mode looks a lot better than what I first expected on seeing his robot mode.

Walmart Canada has some new toys that, to the best of my knowledge, no one saw at retail before. These are new Titan Changer figures part of the Authentics line. They are leader sized but at the deluxe price. So very simple, yet big and inexpensive for younger fans to have a big transforming toy that they can transform by themselves and that wont break the bank. The three characters offered were Megatron, Optimus and Bumblebee. These use the Evergreen designs we have seen in the past, it is the same style which the Cyberverse character models are based off of (along with some characters at the tale end of the previous IDW continuity). You can see a comparison to other Optimus toys, one deluxe and one voyager sized.

They were 19.99 CAD, meaning probably closer to 15 USD if ever they are found in the US. it is unknown if they are exclusive to Walmart in Canada, but that is the first place these were found. You can see images of the toys along with their transformation schemes below.

I feel like I have seen these before, maybe on another website? Megatron's mold-lined arms look awfully familiar.

These are ugly as sin. Still, leader sized AND 10$can cheaper than a regular deluxe? This is brilliant and young kids will indeed have a blast without making the parents curse.

Seen at Walmart: A mom is handling the G1 Optimus. "This look neat! My kid will love it. How much is it? 70$!!! WTF?" The mom then put it back in disgust.

Strange and wonderful how these things keep popping up under the radar. I'll have to hit some dollar stores and Big Lots next time I'm out and about just to see if they've turned up south of the border. (the Canadian border, that is)

My gut tells me we'll see Starscream in the 7" scale too, complete the set and all that.
