    Please Hasbro, stop with all the repaints so soon in this line. You're introducing so many great new villain characters on the show that it seems a shame not to at least give us Legends or quick-step changer versions of many of them. Getting a scad of repaints so soon is just kind of... depressing.

    What? This is the Takara line.

    Hoping the Grimlock is a new scaled and show-accurate toy ala TAV-21 Prime.

    I think that's what it'll turn out to be, the price point matches up too.

    I hope that's the case as well. Grimlock like Optimus deserves a larger and better made figure then what the Warrior toy gave us.

    I could see takara repainting the animated grimlock with a new head possible retool with new deco. As someone said on page 1, they did do the other dinos ;) 

    Whatever it is I'm sure we'll find out soon.

    Count me in, I really like the design of Grimlock for RID but the Warrior-figure just isn’t cutting it for me. If they do a big transformable figure that is just as show-accurate as their Optimus is Takara gets my money.

    This all sounds promising.

    Oh My God I would love that. A Green TFA Grimlock would be perfect. I'd gladly buy that in a heartbeat.

    Oh man that'd be great. I've always wanted to get those figures.

    Kind of hoping that Grimlock is the animated version to go with the other Dinobots.

    Black Convoy QT you say. Very interested in that.

    Black Shadow is probably the Generations one. Wonder if it'll be all that different

    Takara will give us a pretender shell...

    ..and maybe perhaps a smaller 'inner robot' plus animation accurate color-scheme

    IMO the pricepoint given is a bit high for a voyager repaint with new head. I'm leaning more on an all new mold. Plus a new bigger mold is something to be expected from Takara.

    Yup, hope this means more will follow suit. I really want a Voyager Underbite. He's too prominent a character to just to be stuck in a small one-step and a Legion class toy. Maybe they'll even get more characters who Hasbro will be skipping over because they're too busy releasing repaints.
