    I hope that price is the same here in the U.S. That's not bad for MP Grimmy.

    What was Masterpiece Skywarp? Here he was the same price as a leader, $59.99. Currency conversion doesn't enter in.

    I'm going to start hunting TRU once a week to find this guy! What I want to know is, will we get the rest of the Dinobots in MP format?

    I don't think the others will get the MP treatment. Grimlock is one of the more popular Characters.

    I wouldn't start looking yet, Hasbro hasn't announced the release date yet.

    Awesome for our friends from the land of Hockey and the good beer! I still wish Wal-mart had gotten Grimmy as it would be easier for me to lay my hands on but i suppose they feel they got burnt by the MPs they did carry.

    That said ill do what i got to do to get one.

    I just hope he doesn't become another Ani Arcee and get scalped like crazy.

    It's not that big of a difference, man. It'll probably be $64.99 there or something.

    Nothing confirmed yet. I'm inclined to guess late summer/early fall.

    Not a chance. The only reason we've goten Skywarp and Thundercracker is because they are straight repaints of Starscream. Unless you want Slag, Sludge, Snarl, and Swoop to be Grimlock coloured red, blue, green, and brown. I don't see it happening.
