    But consider this is a JAPANESE figure, so the voice would be in JAPANESE by the JAPANESE voice actor. Not the US big dummy voice by Berger like we had in the US.

    Grimlock should be considerably easier to engineer than either Prime or Megatron (i.e. adding a few joints to his G1 toy form would make him reasonably posable, and he's already pretty cartoon accurate as is), so I'm hoping they will increase the appeal by making him FREAKING HUGE.

    I would probably say no voice samples since:
    A) There are alot of mixed feelings on his G1 voice (even though I like it.)
    B) It wouldn't work on the Japanese market

    They should use his roar, growls, transforming, and shooting sound effects though.

    Yes, he should be HUGE with lots of DIECAST!! I want to work on my biceps with MP07s!!!!!!

    I pray to god there would be no electronics beyond a LED light in his mouth. Echoing others, the rocket launcher and sword are a must, and the brain transfer device would be cool too. Otherwise, just make the actual toy kick as much ass as possible.

    Going by MP tradition, it will come with one or two obscure accessories, but not come with something large people really wanted (trailer for Prime, stock/silencer for Megs, cape/crown for Starscream, so the way I see it, it WILL include the smart Grimlock helmet and an apron, but omit the sword.

    (and there was much bitching. :)  )

    Here is my vote.

    I just want a new MP figure to be announced. We already will have to wait a minimum of 4-6 months for him to be released after the announcement, so announce the thing already.

    But consider this is a JAPANESE figure, so the voice would be in JAPANESE by the JAPANESE voice actor. Not the US big dummy voice by Berger like we had in the US.

    Hasbro would most likely have a US release of the figure, as Ultimate Bumblebee was a strong seller and MP Starscream sold reasonably well.

    Please, no voice chip.

    A crown would be neat. His sword and Rocket launcher are a given. Maybe some miniature Sharkticons?

    IF there are voice samples, it will probably be some guy that isn't Berger. So far, in over 20 years of TF collecting, I do not remember A SINGLE TOY that had a voice sample with the correct voice. NOT ONCE has the voice been correct. Even with DVD Prime.

    Supreme BM Primal. OH SNAP!

    Grim should come with a mini Wheelie and a mini Allicon. If they pulled that off, even if he was small and swordless I'd buy him.

    I want to have his crown from when he became Autobot leader in the comics, a MP Wheelie to ride him and make Grimlock 1-1 scale with MP-01/4/5 which should make him bigger than Ultimate Bumblebee
