    I love Grimlock's packaging and box art. And he looks to be one of the best Voyagers in a long time. Definitely going to pick him up.

    Grimlock looks great. I might get him...but I'm still not sure. Blaster doesn't look bad, but he won't be hard to pass on.

    I probably shouldn't worry about this, but...I can't help but notice that neither of Grimlock's accessories are noticeable in this packaging shot...The shield I really couldn't care less about, but it would kinda suck if he didn't come with at least his sword.

    The paint seems a little bland but otherwise Grimlock looks great. Blaster is a little meh, but I'll be getting both. Hopefully I can find a Soundblaster at retail eventually to off-set Blaster on the shelf.

    Like the picture of Futurama's Fry with cash saying this, "Shut up and take my money!" Instant buys for me.

    I know. I'm picturing a hollowed out sword. Ugh. I hope Dr. Wu makes an upgrade kit for him.

    I'm so getting Grimlock! Funny thing is he'll end up on my Island of Misfit Toys since MP Grimlock is in perfect scale with classics.

    Agreed. Now Blaster on the other hand...I didn't realize that there was a Blaster shaped hole in my Classics shelf until this posting came along. Wonder how he'll look opposite MP Soundwave.

    I'm sure one has already been in the works. But to be honest, I'd rather have a hollowed out sword over an off colored translucent, non locking mechtech weapon any day of the week.

    Looks like my Energon Grimlock may be retiring very soon.

    Better idea: Make him Grimlock's son.

    Grimmy's colours look a little nicer than I remembered.

    I'd have like him more if he'd been a Weaponizer though.

    Wow Grimlocks bio is pathetic. Of course that doesn't change the you looking awesome.

    Blaster looks better than Soundwave but I already have Device Label Blaster so don't need this one with the stupid disks.
