 | | | Higher Resolution Images of Masterpiece Grimlock and Mickey Mouse Transformer | | Posted on 11-06-2008 at 02:18 AM by Sol Fury | | Japanese online retailer Maruzen toys has put up some new, higher resolution images of the upcoming Masterpiece Grimlock and Crossover Mickey Mouse. Both listings include images that we have seen before, but in a much higher resolution so we can now see details previously unavailable, such as the articulation on Grimlock's dinosaur arms and Crossover Mickey's head, which features a tiny Mickey Mouse holding on for dear life! Discuss all these new images on our 2005 Boards.

**looks for a job**
must get enuff money for this
Eric:
Grimlock is full of win-sauce, with a side of win-fries. SMOG:
Hot DAMN!!!
Doesn't posting these pics contravene our anti-pornography policy? Because MP Grimlock is giving me inappropriate thoughts.
I love the rivets. Nice touch that fits him perfectly.

Cruellock:
Grimlock is amazing...
iconscons:
Maybe this is a dumb question, but is that crown removable? I'd hate for that to be a permanent fixture.

Looks great with color. I wonder how far off that will be when the painted test shots are released.
Alex5:
Good work mulanzo!
But you do know he's going to be TakTom Starscream green right???
LifePincher:
With the MP Grimlock on that page, what's with the price of 13,650 and then they list 8,872 --- 35%off?
Anyone have this page translated?
dark69:
man i realy like them both

It's funny how Grimlock's tail features a tiny bit of articulation compared to Classics Grimmy. That's retro design for you.
I like how the dino neck and robot chest are transparent so we can see all the gimmickery underneath. Now if only we had shots of a coloured version with the LED eyes to justify the obscene price...
doomboy536:
I'm going to get this. It may be overpriced, but by god it's Grimlock and I'm sure he'll be worth every dollar/yen/pound
Draven:
Looks superb. I love how it looks like the tail moves inside the lower legs to stabilise him in robot mode.
Dokter:
The color looks superb... I hope they'll look like this... Glitcher: Quote:

Halo:
you know, the Disney transormers could be a nice thing. I wouldn't mind Malificent turning into a Dragon or Jafar into a King Cobra, i'd actually wouldn't mind those two. As for MP Grimlock...I want it now....
ARTIMUS ONE:
I have not posted here in a while. At any rate Grimlock looks more like a glorified G1, more updated figure...too much bulk. And now we have Micky Mouse joining in to fight Decepticons. I think Walt must be turing over in his grave.
Baird:
Great detailing, I just hope now that he is at least 12 inches tall and not MP-03 sized.
nemesisconvoy:
Please tell that the dumb-ass crown on Grimlocks head is an add-on and not part of the head sculpt.

The Asp:
Grimlock is beautiful.
I can't see any die-cast parts, so if there are any they may be inside? Or added later?
The light-up sword gimmick never works well, I'm disappointed they gave him that rather than articulated fingers.
mickey mouse still sucks.
Jarodimus:
Alright, I'm now officially sold on Grimmy.
Already had Optimouse pre-ordered from HLJ. GreenScream:
Grimlock looks great. But after seeing these new pics, I don't think he'll be the same size as Prime and Megatron. Maybe a bit bigger than Starscream.

dark69:

The old warrior who really wants to be the crap out of Megs? That is the personality my Grimlock is getting. NO stupid serving tray.
Dinobot Snarl:
I see an awesome jet pack
TCracker:
I think mulanzo did a good job on the digibash, it gives an idea/reference (somewhat) how the toy will look like in color.
Aaron:
I am going to have to restrain myself from buying Grimmy.
Dinobot Snarl:
I'll wait for us edition

The crown is from his short-lived and corrupt leadership of the Autobots in the Marvel comics Quote:

US Marvel comics Grimlock was just a stubborn asshole. Bob Budiansky started out writing him as speaking normally, but later picked up the cave man speak from the cartoons.
But he still thinks in regular english, as seen in " King of the Hill": Feralstorm:
Masterpiece-line TFs are pretty much loaded with obscure crap only dealt with for short periods of time. ('cept maybe Starscream) Grimlock is unique in being one of the only ones with a Comics-based accessory instead of exclusively cartoon and animated movie - based ones. Perhaps that's a clue that Hasbro had some involvement or influence here (and will hopefully release it in the west sooner or later), as Japan had relatively little exposure to the Marvel TF comics. (me think)
I do think the obscure accessories are getting weirder and wackier as they go. Optimus got an axe and in-scale gun Megatron. Megatron got a 'found' laser pistol and Kremzeek. Grimlock gets a brain transfer hat and a tray of drinks (any bets on whether he gets a cloth apron to go with it?)
DazzalingFury:
Lol i like the images with Grimlock and Optimus its quite funny, plus the other images aren't too bad either, more of a look-see to how it'll look up close and personal

Liking MP-Grimlock so far & also might get the Mickey-former for my daughter. Soundwave2: Quote:
Originally Posted by mulanzo I colored it. I want it.  | that's how I'd assume his colors to be. I was gonna display him in robot mode, but if the Dino colors are even similar to that, there's no way I'd display him any other way. His color pattern is just so perfect. Plus looking at his robot mode, his back is not gonna be pretty, but noboy would see it anyway
SydneyY:
I am not sure if this is covered already, but according to the text Grimlock's head/neck is interlocked with his legs and tail, and by "stomping" his feet his head moves up and down. Likewise by moving his tail the head turns left to right. It also mentions "biting" gimmick and an apron will be also included
As for this Maruzen store, they are basically a wholeseller, this Grimlock price is when you buy a box of 4. They apparently ship outside Japan and take paypal. I have not used them myself though. http://www.japan-toys.com/p-japan-toys/index-us.htm This is their English site.

mulanzo:
I personally don't know if I'm going to display it in robot mode or Dino mode. Both are going to be fantasmic. Maybe I'll buy 2!
