I have Takaras version already. Can't justify spending money on another one atm. Unless it's cheap :p
Although there doesn't appear to be huge interest according to the poll, I still firmly believe this Hasbro MP Grimlock will fly off the shelves given his popularity as a character ... Just not in the same league as when Hasbro MP Soundwave was released last year. Now that was mass hysteria.
I'll be keen to find out if people (non-TF fans) end up buying utter ridiculous quantities in one transaction for the reason other than to get one for a fellow mate. We all heard what happened to the chap in the US on another TF forum who bought large quantities AND posted it up on their board. :eek:
Yeah, I got mine about 4/5 years ago but I know a few mates who would like to pick up one if he becomes cheap :)Quote:

But still hedge your bets by asking your nearest store if you can reserve one if you really want one. (if they start taking names closer to its release)
That's it, isn't it? Everywhere you look there are Dinobots featured, so fans young and old will know or have some idea of who he is. This guy won't be another Acid Storm sitting around.
Still, he won't be the same as the movie as he's G1. Would it matter to the younger movie fans?
I was going to get this guy but I doubt I will see him on shelves much like I never saw MP Thundercracker :mad: , so ive had little interest in this release.
And for people who don't know about Grimlock, dinosaurs are still cool; robot dinosaurs, even better.Quote:
