    In alt-mode, T-Rexes were round about 4 metres at the hip, the maximum legal height for a lorry is 4.9 metres, Voyager Classics Optimus Prime's wind vane reaches to the middle of MP Grimmy's hip, and the G3 trailer is just above his hip. Therefore I deduce that Masterpiece Grimlock is in absolutely prefect scale with my Autobot's. :D

    Dino mode fits the best in scale out of the two modes. He's a T-rex, his is supposed to be bigger than a car:lol

    I don't actually have a good sense of how large the Dinobots are supposed to be, although I seem to recall them towering over the Autobots in the cartoon (at least, before season 3). My personal feeling is MP Grimlock is a little too big; Ultra class would probably more appropriate.

    To me, he is just too big. I would love to think that he was that big in the show, but I just stick with animated grimlock in my classics display. Perfect scale for me.

    Masterpieces and the Alternators seem to scale better together (in robot mode) than classics. In G-1 the general Autobot was smaller than Optimus Prime, however Prime was smaller than Grimlock so.....maybe.
