Cheem The Rup:
AWESOME !!

llamatron:
Nice. Truly, he is no bozo.
MushroomPrime:
Nor is he a kisser.
Ratchet2007:
Atleast people will kinda now know what size he is.
KING KONVOY:
nice pic! Is that alternity Megs? I knew aternity prime was short but shorter than G1 Prime...wow. I still purchasing but I'm surprised.
Draven:
Ohhh yeah. SO going to have to get MP Grimlock.
Hiro Prime:
Nice. So he's about the same hight as MP Starscream, and Bulkier than MP Prime. Yeah, he's gonna be a fun toy to have.

And speaking of size, it looks as if the Alternity series are gonna be the size of a small mega, or a really big Deluxe. That pic of the Convoys together does make A-Convoy look good. Tho the pic of Megatron looks like he'll share the same transformation as the Convoy. Booo.
Silent_Magnus:
According to Takara; all of those Convoys are the same guy.
Which makes my brain hurt.
Nevermore:
There's also a partial control drawing of Alternity Megatron.
rapid_fire:
holy shit is he ever massive!!! lol
Buzzer-Bot:
Nice prototype.It can rival Godzilla.

And I hope that Alternity Convoy doesn't suck because the size is disappointing.

you dont understand that? muwhahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! it is because you are feeble minded and weak! your puny brain could not even begin to understand the complexity of them all being Convoy! for you see:

..........Wait a minute...ALL of them?!?!?!?!




im just goofin around, i dont get it either. its cause they're (no offense)

but WOW those pictures are awesome! though i thought Alternity Prime would be bigger, MP Grimlock is HUGE (for me-never actually owned a MP)

To be fair, movie Prime is called Optimus Prime there and a different character. But otherwise...Yeah. All their lines are part of one big and convulated continuity. Don't ask, it's safer for your brain.

MP Grimlock =

yes, but i have no masterpiece toys yet, lol so this would be my first, plus, it is a much better scale then the small, more raptorish, classic lol
Coolhand:
I still think he's over priced, but I also think he's awesome and will be snapping him up.
Peanut04:
Damn, MP Grimlock looks awesome. I am sooo glad I have him preordered. Hopefully these pics will lay to rest any question about his size.

That sketch of Alternity Megs looks promising. I can't wait to see the finished product. I kinda knew the Alternity line was going to be pretty small, but after seeing them in relation to other molds, I'm alittle disappointed. I don't regret preordering them though.
Twin Twist:
Sex-y as all hell.
Xhairs:
he is looking good.
aprim:
Thats is gonna be amazing!!Looks good.
LightningZERO:
Alternity Megatron's design looks similar with Alternity Convoy's

So...how large exactly is MP Grimlock now? MP Starscream size?
GrimlockAutobot:
I'll be getting this mold at some point. $150 is just too much money for me to spend. Hopefully this mold resurfaces as a USA store exclusive in the $50-$70 range.

Wasn't Movie Prime called Optimus Prime over there, and not Convoy?
Type-R:
Grimlock still doesn't impress but I love what I've seen so far of the Fairlady (370)Z Megatron. If the actual figure turns out as nice as GT-R Convoy then I'll be getting both Monterrey Blue and Blade Silver versions.
MrFX:
Solid!

MP Grims is as good as purchased!
rizuan76:
Fuhh yoooo!!!

(Not regretting pre-ordering one bit)
Ravenxl7:
Great new pics. It's still hard to tell, but it looks as though he'll be the perfect size for my Classics Autobots. It wouldn't surprise me if his dino-mode ends up being taller than his bot-mode.
raltherr:
I just went from six to midnight!!!!!

I so can't wait. I want to freeze myself like Eric Cartman until MP Grimlock is released!
Megatronwp38:
Grimlock looks great. I wil get im for sure.
0ptimus__Prime:
*Grimlock voice* Grimlock I hope be Easter gift for me 0ptimus__Prime!*Grimlock voice*
Robogeek28:
March can't get here soon enough, I must have that Grimlock, I simply MUST!!!
Takara_destron:
Grimlock looks real nice, and I can't wait to see how Alternity Megatron turns out.

I believe so.
alien:
well, is great too!
Splendic:
So they're re-releasing MP Magnus, which is bigger, heavier, and looks to have more diecast for $100.

The MP seekers are each being released for $100....


And "mini-Grim" over here is going to be $140???


I preordered, but might cancel.

The price to size ratio is shitty, and that's compared to other figs in the same line...
Laser_Optimus:
Grimlock rocks. Enough said. He'll be going in with my Classics figures when I get him.

Alternity Convoy looks okay... still kind of iffy on him. Might just cancel my preorder... $50 feels a lot to spend on a toy that small, but then I remember Botcon... argh!
Railguard:
Well, I wont be spending that much on this toy when I can spend that much on 5 deluxes in the Universe line.
DeathFrogurt:
Can Grimlock turn his head in dino mode? Also, does his chest open up to store anything, like the Matrix?
Even if both answers are no, he's totally bought... when he's released in the US.

I'm almost completely sure he can turn his dino-mode head (I remember there being another picture with it turned). As for his chest, not sure, but it would be awesome if it could hold the matrix. I'd then have to get a copy of the MP Matrix, but it'd be worth it.
Brave Magnus:
Sweet toy! Its nice to see Alternity Megatron art too.
rikkuluverx2:
whoa O.O...this guy might be my first mp figure, maybe.

-rikkuluverx2
smkspy:
Still disappointed about the size, but Grimmy is a definite buy regardless.
rhenk:
Very nice! MP Grimlock will be my 4th MP toy.
jksit1:
Cool! Grimmy should look something like this picture next to my UM City commander



Just need the rest of these guys and I will be a happy chappy.
Tman978:
MP Starscream size
SmokescreenWRX:
It really sucks that I had to cancel my Grimmy pre-order... damn that Sallie Mae for being a money-grubbing so-and-so. Finances are too tight to fathom nowadays.
Galvamaximus:
microclone:
wow, hes quite big, 2x the size of g1 toy. i hope his TF isnt too complex (well, actually the word should be difficult) MP prime got it right, hopefully GL is in a similar league.
misternoodle:
dino mode is posture too upright!
