    I bought MFT 25 but got MFW 24.

    Is there any difference between them? (Both are Grimlock.)

    There should be both normal and metallic variants. I bought the normal one -- the metallic one is much more expensive.

    My MF-23, for example, is normal color.

    Update:
    Okay, I think I got it. MF-21 to MF-25 are metallic (except MF-23 for some reason). However, sellers use them for toon variants as well. The toon variants are under MFW label.

    My toon Grimlock and Snarl came in blister packs with Mechfans World label. These 2 were released later than the other 3 toon dinos which came in boxes similar to the metallic ones. Why toon Grimlock is numbered 24 while he was 25 as metallic i dunno

    Has anyone got the toon Swoop with the blue torso yet?

    If you buy the shiny MFT Grimlock you get two swords, a Crown and a fishy as well as the weapon.

    I'm always mystified by how often the Dinobots Rocket launchers get left out of their toys though.

    So I saw a post on MFT's weibo about the metallic dinobots being re-released in a box set. Any truth or progress in that? I haven't seen any so far but I'm far from in the know.

    Like @antapp says, eBay is your best bet. And, depending on the version(s) you want, you may still have a hell of a time tracking down Sludge.

    While the thread is alive, I should mention that I'm looking for a replacement set of horns for Slag (MF-22). If anyone happens to have a pair, please give me a shout!
