    Yup. From the episode "Grimlock's New Brain" where, for a short while, Grimlock didn't act like a raging retard in a post-season 2 cartoon appearance!

    HA ha

    I personaly liked Grimlock more as a raging retard, it just seemed to fit the character better. I am a Grimmie fan though.

    I gotta disagree grimlock was better in the comics, especially his earlier apperances in marvels transformers run. You should have a look at them and dreamwaves war within series and it'll change your mind

    Hmm, ok Swoop, I stand corrected.... thinking back to the comics I have read (end of the Road line & All Fall Down line) Grimmie is not a raging retard in those and actually shows intelligence and a cunning that is impressive. I actually really enjoyed his involement in these story lines and made me like him more.

    I haven't read War Within but have seen it mentioned on these boards a bit so I will look out for it (and Minimal/Maximum Dinobots)

    I still think he was too smart in the toons before he gave his brains to the techno bots though.

    I agree which is why I'm so keen for a Grimlock MP, though I thought the end run of the Marvel US series really made Grimlock interesting, he's the character who walks that fine line between the light and the dark, the anti hero of the Transformers universe.

    My favourite Grimlock is Grimlock from the original G1 (and G2) Marvel comics. He was never a raging retard there... he sometimes made less than wise decisions, but he wasn't a fool.

    True, after that period they did become somewhat comic relief, though still cool in my opinion. I just didn't like him as the intellectual type, to me it just didn't seem to fit.

    He is totally passable and respectable as a streetwise,cunning,strategist and ruthless type though, which by no means makes him dumb.

    In the end any Grimlock is good, I don't think I could get sick of the dinobots.

    I'd say he was more a docile retard in Season 3...
