    Bigger is better in-context.
    Grimlock is twice the size of Optimus in the game.

    I for one am glad to see all this hate.

    mainly because I don't agree with any of it, and it'll make him easier to find in stores if you lot aren't going to bother.

    Ok thread derail, but I have to see a closer picture of your FoC Bruticus configuration.

    That Bruticus looks way too squat and thick, IMHO. Ah, well, personal preferences. If he's stable and Brawl isn't flopping over, I guess that's what matters.

    I really want Grimlock bad, though. If he's in T. rex mode, I will keep him in the modern stance, so the hollowness isn't as visible, but I suspect he will be in robot mode most of the time, crossing swords with FoC Bruticus.

    I love how the light gimmick actually complements Grimlock's appearance instead of just being an annoying extra.

    Also, does he make sounds when he lights up? I don't recall if it was mentioned previously.

    Going by Peaugh's video of the figure, I'm going to say no on that.

    I absolutely Love this figure, but I feel his Dinosaur mode is just too small. I would be more than happy to pay for like...a leader class version of him, complete with colossal Dinosaur mode, am I right?

    I've been waiting for his figure for a while, when I saw they were making figures for the new game I had a hope they'd be making a big Voyager Class Grimlock & I'm glad I was right. I'll probably be grabbing him either online or if I happen to find him in the store.

    Back in 2006 when I got Classics Grimlock (good God has it been 6 years already? :eek:  ) I bought the G1 Pretender Grimlock's Atom-Smashing Submachine Gun weapon for use with him. Unfortunately, Classics Grimlock's hand-holes are smaller then the G1 Pretender weapon's peg so he couldn't use it. I've held onto it since then, even after selling off my Classics Grimlock, so I'm curious if this version will be able to hold it.

    Does anyone have FOC Grimlock & G1 Pretender Grimlock so we can see if he can hold this weapon?
