    Grimlock is the animated toy besides Blitzwing that I see myself owning two of. Those animated toys are just so show accurate it's incredibly hard not to buy them.

    Loving that sword. Looking at the handle perhaps there's a hand based light up gimmick?

    Possible, but none of the other Voyagers have had electronics. I'm guessing that's how the sword tabs into his hand in robot mode, and they didn't paint it since it would just scrape off.

    Actually, looking at the proto, I can practically guarantee that's the case:

    Also, it looks like a couple more ridges near the tip of the sword will be painted in final versions.

    These Animated figures are awesome. Not one figure has disappointed me so far, and Grimlock is no exception.

    I'm almost tempted to buy these.. :ev:

    I'm not too keen on that under-bite, but I like it enough to buy it (if I can get a hold of one of these in the stores :(  )

    I'm purchasing multiples. I love Griimlock and I'm thankful that character is getting great molds. I hope he is MP-07.

    Holy slag, that's beautiful! His transformation is a definite throwback to G1, but if it ain't broke... My only complaint (and it feels like a nit-pick since it keeps with the G1 design) is how his robot mode feet aren't hidden in his alt mode, and they don't really mesh. The dinobots are the only bots I tend to keep in their alt modes, but for the animated releases, I think I want 2 of each mode for display purposes.

    Also, I guess the sword doesn't stow anywhere in dino mode.
