    Wow... thats a buy for me when it comes out. It reminds me of a G1 Grimlock in so many ways!

    It would be cool, but I'd like for the toyline to get a single class for each figure. I don't care to buy the deluxe only to have a nicer leader come out months down the road. Just my opinion.

    Still mis-transformed arms, no?

    Still looks great. Can't wait for MIB items to show up.

    hes rather tiny but i prefer TF to be smaller over larger. im still hoping the orange parts will end up in metallic. looks like his tail base if different than the grey proto. overall i love it, i like the contrast between the black and the other pastel like colours. the grey proto pics show the elbow sections further in, maybe the black parts are supposed to be pushed up inside the upper arm?

    i love the robo legs, solid all around and look like 'proper' TF legs. easily my fave animated toy so far.

    It looks like we have two different scales in Animated. Grimlock here looks to be sized perfectly with Delux Prime, Voyager Bulkhead, Voyager Megatron, and Lugnut. But he's to small to be with the other Delux figures, Voyager Prime, and the Leaders.

    If we had proper basics, that problem would be fixed.:mad

    Hmmm, he's a little shorter than Id've liked, but no biggie. He still looks absolutely gorgeous and is the one I'm most excited about getting!

    looks like he does have little fold out flames on his sword. I'm still curious about the joint in the middle of his tail though.

    man, I think he'd look sweet if you took a dremel and shaved off the bottom part of his jaw. he'd look just like the original!

    possibly the closest G1 'version' of any new toy so far, only his hands significantly detract from the vintage transformation.

    I really like the bulky look to his Robot mode. I can't wait for this guy to hit the store. Grimlock and the other Dinobots are probably the only animated figures that I'm going to be purchasing :)

    It's starting to worry me that every pic we see of this guy is with those "mistransformed" arms.

    Other than that, it's lookin' good. Is this guy definitely a Voyager though? He is pretty small. I mean, considering that locally, he's going to cost DOUBLE what that Deluxe Optimus will. It's really making the Voyager price point less and less attractive.

    Boo, Hasbro... Boo!

    Yeah, there's a tab on the sword itself that slides forward and pops out the flames. You can see it just above the "WE" in the 6th pic, and under Grimlock's left foot in the last pic.
