Toy Review - RID(2015) Warrior-Class Grimlock

[BigTransformerTrev]

It will be a cold day in the Pit before I buy into all that "Aligned" rubbish
(actually I kind of do, long story, but not in the way that I'd say FOC Grimlock ends up becoming this Grimlock)

Yeah true - there wasn't much of a resemblance between the FOC and TFPrime versions of Soundwave either

He reminds me of Blot with the dino head on his robot mode like that.

It's part of the Aligned Continuity Family, and not part of the same continuity. For example, the G1 toys, Marvel Comics, Sunbow Cartoon, Ladybird Books, Big Looker Books, Beast Wars, Beast Machines, IDW G1 et al. are all part of the G1 Continuity Family, but they are not all part of the same continuity per se. So we may say that Aligned Grimlock is G1-esque in the War For/Fall of Cybertron and IDW TFP continuities, but the same may not hold true across all Aligned continuities in the Aligned Continuity Family.

Mild cartoon spoiler ahead





Interesting to see that the toy has an Autobot insignia even though Grimlock sports a Decepticon logo in the cartoon.

Thanks for your review Trev, it's helped me decide for now. Don't think I'll get them unless I fall in love with the TV show.

Also 'ME GRIMLOCK IN GREEN MAKE ME GRIMLOCK FEEL BLUE', just made me laugh to much Priceless.

Heh - I write these reviews mainly for enjoyment but glad I was able to both inform and entertain

Blot from Beast Hunters? Totally! Now you've said it I totally see it

Cracked this one open this evening. Awesome little toy and the black and green suits him quite nicely. I can see this repainted as Skullcruncher or Grotesque
