    Default Will you be buying the 2014 MP-3 Grimlock?

    It is the year of the Dinobots, so this could be popular, but...

    It is also a toy that is expensive, and has been released here before in similar colours & accessories. (not to mention twice in Japan, and twice more in Hong Kong)

    This figure is US$60 in America (about AU$67), but will be sold at ToysRUs here for AU$130 (should be in JULY), so since it is a higher markup than normal for us, will this affect the number of people intending to buy one here?
    (importing it online will cost AU$100-120, so would only be a worthwhile option if there are no sales here for Grimlock)

    No - already have the Takara Tomy version but I recommend it to anyone else as he could conceivably scale with CHUG should the owner find him too small for Masterpiece.
    Any figure that comes with swords demands wrist articulation.

    Probably. He'll stay sealed though, next to Soundwave & Acid Storm

    Yes, because I don't have any versions of this mold yet.

    One question though, how do you know its $125?

    Nope, I too already have the original (Hasbro) version and am entirely content with him.

    Now that you mention it .... yes. But only if its during a % off sale. I've forked out enough dosh for several other colour decos and can't justify the TRU full RRP.
