    yeah, it looks awful.

    still cool though.

    The Rise Of The Dark Spark images look terrible - the models lack detail and they don't interact properly with the scenery around them.

    Also comparing Grimlock's height to the height of that bus (9.5ft tall) then Grimlock's robot mode is a depressingly short 28.5ft tall. To put that in perspective; he's .5ft taller than Optimus (28ft) and 6.5ft smaller than Megatron (35ft)

    Agreed - I thought the same. His alt-mode must be larger than his robot mode - so not sure how that works... but it checks out with the scale of the bus (Added picture evidence to above)

    The wall the bus is next to is about 3 bus's in height making it 28.5ft tall. Grimlock is about the same size as the wall meaning his max height in robot mode in the game is 28.5ft

    Not sure why Bay should be knocked for the game developers (High Moon?) getting their scales wrong for a tie in video game. That's a bit like Bay getting blamed for the Burger King Happy Box toys not being on model or something.

    Isn’t this just a computer game image we have? I would say the finished CGI would look a lot better and more to scale in the film. I think transformed Grimlock will be a lot bigger than you suggest and I think its scale down due to it been a game character and scaling it on the game environment.

    I know that - but compare the live-action version to the version we have in the game. Then compare that to the versions we got for WFC and FOC and these models look terribly under detailed.

    Film also has scaling issues that we talked about prior - the game is suppose to accurately represent the film regardless so if the robot version in the film isn't the same size as in the game then the game is terribly inaccurate and not really worth buying.

    The scale for the movie tie in games has never been accurate as far as I'm concerned.

    Via RedGoblin;

    [​IMG]

    Grimlock's dinosaur head in the film is roughly 25ft tall from lower lip to upper spike
    In the game Grimlock's robot mode is roughly 28.5ft

    Essentially Movie Grimlock could almost eat Game Grimlock whole... o.0

    I don't see what the problem with the video game is. I thought it was done that way on purpose for online balancing issues. You choose a bot from one of 4 classes you can't have one of those classes completely dwarf the other it wouldn't make for a fair fight
