    I could just imagine Gigapowers Facebook chat full of people complaining about the hands and colors used on the testshot. They probably don't know wtf is going on lol

    FFS that screenshot is not the only panel of g1 grim with his hands like that, sometimes the thumb was drawn like that, sometimes it was in the middle, sometimes they were all together , my gosh just cus you dont like how the hands look doesnt mean its WRONG or being assembled wrong. This is like the 3rd test shot and if it were a mistake I am quite sure Giga would have done it properly by now -_- quiet whining and claiming its a mistake on their part. If thats really a deal breaker then thats your problem and up to you whether you get him, most of the rest of us dont mind

    Okey cool so its not just me that thinks that this looks like some little kid crying over something tiny. I honestly don't mind the way they did the claws, helps differentiate him a little from the other two MP versions. I actually quite like it tbh.

    At first glance i tot it was mp08... But I'm ok with that cos i like mp08's body proportion except the shoulder height. From this shot at least the upper body looks perfect to me

    That post also mention they are "leaking" the release date as middle of the year

    Cool.

    The head sculpt is a bit better than mp-08's as well.

    Can't wait to finally finish the gigasaurs. Been a long ride since metallic guttur first released. But I'd do it again if given the choice

    Just got into Gigapower last week and have been playing catch up! Currently have metallic Gutter(impatience can really hurt since I prefer chrome) and Chrome Grassor. Will be buying the chrome versions of Graviter and Swoop next week! Bring on Chrome Grimlock ASAP!!

    I'm getting him as stand alone figure but can't decide to get the chrome or metallic. Anyone with the other released gigapower dinos, which looks better the metallic or chrome?

    They're both brilliant! Personally, I went with the chrome since it is the "richer" of the two paint jobs. If you want the flame accessories you gotta track down the metallic versions.

    The eyes on the Dino mode look nice, are they light up or maybe light piping? Very nice, only downside is a lack of consistency across the bots.

    Just pre ordered this figure...
    Chrome version, though I really wish it came with the flames.
    So I’ll have Guttur and Superator. Hoping to keep Grimlock in Dino mode.

    Middle of the year and late May? Kinda optimistic isn't it? I'm still waiting for news that my metallic Gaudenter is ready and good for shipping...

    It does seem possible that he'll be earlier than expected, though, given GP's previous track record. These latest samples seem fairly far a long, and we've known that Gaudenter and Superator were in development fairly concurrently, with Gaudenter's release being delayed.

    Damn, that looks good. Pretty much just a bigger MP Grimlock, as he should be, but with a lot of the niggles of that figure cleaned up, like the overly-high shoulders, and the super-skinny thighs.
