    Why can't he? Leader isn't a size class any more, tit's a price point. There's no reason he can't be a Leader as far as I can see.

    @ExVeeBrawn fixed the image sizing issue, so these are the actual proportions of Jazz and Grimlock.

    What gets me are the ones who come in to check out the leaks... and then curse the leaks and leakers.

    just seeing Jazz and Grimlock has gotten me so excited for this line. I hope we get The remaining 84 Mini-vehicles too. They were in the movie and Gears was even listed in the credits. I want my Original Ark crew please Hasbro!

    This is a bit of an unrealistic desire, but I think it would be kinda cool if Grimlock had placement of joints (maybe a couple extra) so you could repose his T. Rex mode from the classic antiquated posture to something more like the modern understanding of T. Rex posture; hips and spine parallel to the ground, legs longer and more appropriately bent, tail straightened, head raised and S-necked, etc. Classic Grimlock details/sculpt, modern accurate posture (in addition to the classic tripodal stance, of course).

    Good catch. If this is accurate, then maybe he looks bigger in this pic than he really is. He should be right about UM height. Also...

    This is very much correct as well. So the Sunbow scale should be Grimlock's MAX height, right about UM height. If he's any bigger than that, he's too big.

    Is that guy really 20cm? Because visually, he looks way too big next to Prime to me.

    Not sure I wanna wait 2-3 years for them to uncancel Polar Claw (if he is indeed canned) and put him in whatever Generations line they have out then that surely won't mesh perfectly with the other Kingdom figs but here's hoping :drunk

    yes give us all the Dinobots Hasbro. Me Want.

    Also Blaster and the cassettes, Perceptor, the last three 84 Minis, the Insecticons, and Blitzwing. Like I’d be so happy if SS86 do as many of the 84-85 characters the WFC line hasn’t done yet as possible.

    So since these will be announced Friday, Target should still have their sale going, so we can do the $25 off $100 deal. That would be cool!

    Eh i heard that with the earthrise wave 2/3 preorders people who managed to snag orders during a sale had them canceled so they would reorder at full price. If that's true I'm gonna stick with hasbro pulse.

    Hot Rod, Kup, and Jazz are definite pickups for me. I am on the fence with Grimlock since I have the POTP version.
