I don't know what I can say that anyone else hasn't, so I offer this:

Look at the articulated dino-arms and fingers! That's detail!

MP Grimlock is AWESOME, everytime new pics are reveled i like him even more, now knowing how HUGE his dino mode is next to G1 Grimlock it makes me like him that much better, I was really excited about alternity Prime until i saw these pics, hes really small, but it also makes him more interesting knowing how complicated his transformation looks, and as for fairlady megs, I need to see more pics, those half body sketchs arent gonna do it for me, but everything else is awesome, Takara Tomy is going for Gold next year.

You mean the thing that is connecting Grimlock's head to Prime's head? If so that is the brain transfer thing seen in the episode where Grimlock gives the Technobots the smarts he got earlier.

I think he'll have it in the end. They probably just don't have it ready to show off yet. Or they're saving it for when we finally get to see a colored version of him, or something along those lines.

Well, that's the way it was (supposed to be) in the G1 cartoon, according to the size-comparison model sheets.

I got out some of the toys shown in the magazine page to get a better idea of MP Grimlock's size. I just wish there were some comparisons which used Grim in robot mode. Anyway, I came to some (admittedly rough) conclusions.

* MP Grimlock in upright dino mode is taller than MP Starscream.

* Robot mode is probably shorter than dino mode (standing full upright), though not by a lot (maybe coming up to about the neck.)

* My guess is MP Grimlock's robot mode is of similar height to MP Starscream, (confirming earlier info) maybe a bit taller at the head, and more massive overall.

* No way is Grimlock as tall as MP Optimus Prime in either mode (unless Optimus is in truck mode )


Yeah, I'll be getting this thing.

MP Grimlock looks like his dino mode is a little over twice as tall as G1 Grimlock, which would put his dino-mode at 10 or 11" tall. MP Starscream is ~ 8.5" at the top of his head, so he should be taller than MP Starscream.

If his transformation is similar enough to the G1 toy, he should gain a little bit of height, which would put him around MP Prime's height (well, a little shorter)

THANK YOU FOR A REAL SIZE COMPARISON!!!

I'm so sick of morons claiming MP Grim is going to be taller or "massier" than MP Prime, trying to justify the price.

Here it is folks, proof positive. It's going to be roughly the same size as MP SS!
