Why people might not like Grimlock in Prime.

Arashistorm · 06-08-2012, 10:16 PM

As much as I like Grimlock, if they keep him as a robotic T-Rex, I think his existence will ruin things. Prime is... set in a kind fo world where I think a robotic dinosaur, or group of said robotic dinosaurs would completely ruin things. His character is awesome and hsi design is great but if he turns into a vehicle, hell would be raises since he wasn't a dino. if they're going to dedicate a new model to someone.. no dinobots plz.

Why are you bothering to introduce yourself? We can see your username and titles (I don't think OP means what you think it means) BTW.

For people who don't want him to come it might be because he would sort of be overpowered and he wouldn't fit into the whole convert thing. The main them this season is that there is Cybertronian technology hidden on earth. Both Autobots and Decepticons have to sneak around and explore and Grimlock dose not fit with that.

Yes, because the world is so populated by humans. Humans that haven't shown up at all if they are not relevant to some part of the current plot.

As you can see in the FOC game plays he causes a lot of destruction to his surroundings. That wouldn't go nicely with Optimus's whole collateral damage thing. Agent Fowler would also not like that. While it dose make sense with the whole Optimus's rival thing, still. He would just be out of control, way too destructive and way too overpowered. And if Grimlocks coming then the other Dinibots might not be far behind. It just would not fit.

Entire argument is defused simply because you're trying to link FoC directly with Prime, and that simply doesn't make sense.

Because would you want this...monster in Prime?

Look at this. Imagine if Grimlock was fighting in a city:

Yes, yes I would.

He'd be Bulkhead sized and he'd have an ability where he goes all Hulk, except he turns into a huge T-Rex.

There, problem solved.

Also, instead of mocking you, I'm going to come right out and tell you that we didn't nickname you, OP means "Original Post".

I don't hate Grimlock or not want him in Prime. It's just that I have others that I would prefer over him.

Except of course for the fact that Matt Tieger and Aaron Archer both linked FoC directly to Prime at BotCon ...

Eh, I've always felt Grimlock and the dinobots were a really silly concept. It's great that they're popular and all, but personally, I've never really understood what people see in them.

Well, people like Transformers, because they're giant robots that can turn into things and kick ass. People like dinosaurs, because they are mighty beasts of exceptional strength and diversity.

So put them together and voila! You've added one awesome thing to another to make a super-awesome!

Oh, and they breathe fire too

But the true question, my dear Snark, is this: why is there a Pterasaur on a Dinobot team?! XD

Pteranadon. And my best guess is that the person who created him didn't know the difference. Most people still don't.

Also, Swoop is the best Dinobot, so he gets a free pass.

LOL fair enough XD

And don't worry, I know he's specifically a Pteranodon. Pterasaurs are simply the group they and other flyers belong to :3
