    I'm pretty sure using the DX9 flight stands you could recreate SOS Dinobots where Grimlock has Skywarp? in his mouth briefly.

    Looks like I have the issue with the feet being assembled the wrong way. A slight annoyance so far but I don't think it's something I can't get over.

    Snazzy little guy, happy I got him. Will give more thoughts as I play with him more.

    Something simple, but I love it. You can easily fit his gun and sword inside his tail, and it closes up without any issues. Love me some weapon storage!

    Got this DX9 Rager today. My first DX9 war in pocket figure. Hesitated for quite some time with these dinos. Really nice figure! Bought 3 other dinos as well. Will buy Snarl next month. Glad I still can get all 5 dinos before they will sell out. IMG_20171017_171122_302.jpg

    Thorner and Rager are both in stock at BBTS. I'm just waiting on Soundwave to ship them.

    Not sure if this has been mentioned already but I'd like a blue G2 variant of this.

    IDK, I wasn't a G2 kid but I would have picked that one if it was around when I was 12. :)

    How did such a high ranking officer in the Decepticon military fall so low? Unless it's a second job to pay for Christmas?

    You try getting a job as a tape recorder in 2017.

    Ok, so no one else chimed in about a blue version of Rager. I know my little story wasn't $199 exciting but that's the whole point. :)  I like the deco but don't need to buy an FT Grinder for it.

    Do Snarl's horns turn at all? Just got four of these guys today, and I am blown away by the quality and the ingenious transformations.

    I wish there were some detail inside the wings. Zero detail on such a large surface always seems odd when the rest of the figure is detailed.


    My Grimlock has two right hands.

    No they do not turn
    If you try you will snap them as the pegs are square

    What's the problem here? He sounds like he's all right.

    it seems like nobody address the main issue that dx9 grimlock cant stick autobot logo on his chest or else it will become upside down in dino mode.... an autobot without a faction symbol is a failed bot!
    and also whats up with that tiny yellow bits in his chest???? such an eye sore imho! damn u dx09!!
