    Im surprised no one else has thought of it before,
    Another idea could be a plug section that fits into his chest,
    If you rotate his chest up it adds extra height to him,
    Might make him look skinny tho,

    Beefier longer thighs for grimlock would work. I don't mind unscrewing and screwing it back together either.

    I can kinda agree with you, but to me Grimlock will always be a big beefy chunky tail-dragging T-rex.

    Now that I know about all the effort that guy is putting into this project, if I paid less than $100 I feel like I would be ripping him off.

    I haven't really given any feedback on this project because I've been following the discussion and I'm confident that Dalianjj is going to be putting out one fine looking figure. I'm so impressed by how he seeks out input from us fans. The only request for the figure I have is that it have some awesome QC. Please don't make me take apart his hips and grease him up.

    Where is Igear so they can make him bigger by an inch to an inch and half. They can sell it for close to $200 since the hasbro and takara one is selling for that price now.

    Err, risking the loss of their investment is very different than guaranteeing a loss. The way you're carrying on I'm surprised you haven't asking him to ship it to you for free!

    I doubt it. He could always ask them to pay him double whatever they would initially offer. :p

    LOL-seriously. What is this, The Price is Right?

    "How much is the fanstoys' Shockwave?"

    "One dollar!"

    Great thread though-really shows how beloved the character is among the TF fans.

    Just got an email with a couple of attached pictures of Quake wave.

    Sounds like they're going to have some sort of direct purchase option... think I'll wait to see if BBTS, et al get preorders.
