The issue is if you slim down the shoulders, you end up with scrawny dino legs. Remember the cartoon didn't have to obey the laws of physics.Quote:

Doesn't mean I'm not getting this Grimlock though.
From what I remember, FT weren't going to do Grimlock originally. It was because of scale issues and the Dibot line's popularity that they decided to pursue it.
I'd be all for a Grimlock that didn't have thunder thighs. They'd need to be reasonably sturdy, but smaller like the G1 toy (and thus the cartoon) would be cool.Quote:

I'd like to see its Beast mode, I'm curious if they'll stray to a more realistically-gated Tyrannosaur than how Grimlock is traditionally depicted - that Godzilla-esque upright posture. :)
So I'm NOT the only one!Quote:

Time will tell.Quote:

Will be interesting to see the difference.
NICE!! When is this coming out?
