    Howdy, I'm looking for Pretender Grimlock artwork/boxart of just the shell, not with Grimlock the bot in front, anyone here who has any tips?

    Doesn't exists. All depictions of it had Grimlock in front of the shell

    Yeah, though it hasn't got to be orginal 80's artwork. I know I've seen modern IDW artwork of Pretender Grimlock, did find what I'm talking about on google though the link was broken. Anyone who've seen what I've seen and knows where I can find it on the net?

    Oh my bad, I thought you were talking about the original box art.

    No sweat man:) 

    Well, it's actually this picture, in the top left corner I'm looking for. Anyone knows where I can find it? I need it for a custom box I'm making.

    Dream Wave made two trade paperbacks. "Transformers: More than Meets the Eye" Official Guide Protectobots-Wreck-Gar.

    It has the artwork you are looking for. Page 437 Vol. 2

    Awesome, thanks for the help! Were about to order a copy of Vol. 2 when I noticed that the ones I found only had 264 pages. Is that the right guide?

    It's probably right, and they continue counting pages where volume 1 left off.

    I've got volume 2 myself and I can verify that there's artwork of the Pretenders (including Grimlock) in there, so you're safe. :)  if you want to I could scan the picture in for you..but it's night right now so that would have to wait until tomorrow..just send me a PM.

    The book is awesome though, so I still recommend buying it!
