MP Grimlock - buy or avoid?

Okay Hasbro... the ball's in your court!

Yeah I'll definately be looking to pick one of these up. Never had a G1 Grimlock... I just can't pre-order a toy 6 months in advance, when it comes out I'll look around for it.

Definate yes.

I will pay impatience tax and get it asap. That said my TF budget is about $500 per year so I'm done with TF's till at least June!

I doubt we'll see a Hasbro version this year because they've already stated that ROTF is their main focus.

I'm not a fan of Grimlocks accesories and it would have saved us a few dollars if they didn't include silly things like serving trays and bow ties. A missile launcher would have been waaaay cooler than an apron.

A definate yes as i'am getting it through TC anyway, been looking forward to this MP ever since he was first mentioned all those moons ago and i think it might be awhile before we see a hasbro version, as they might wait to see how taktom version sells.

With the current exchange I don't think I can go through with it. I'll wait for a local release or a trip to japan because if I see it on a shelf I dont think I will be able to resist

I am not a fan of the alt mode design but I will still get it due to the character but I am choosing a 'maybe yes' because of all the QC issues that have been plaguing Tak-Tom in the past months.

Its an Undecided for me.
I'd love to get him, but with the QC issues from Takara and my lack of money I'll have to wait and see if there is a cheaper alternative

**turtle boy** · 27th January 2009, 12:50 PM

I'm going to get it, but only cause my collection theme says i have to, I have to get 2

I always have wanted to own an MP Grimlock when the news break out.
But this baby is pricing a couple bucks more expensive than I expect.
I reckon this is one of the best time to practice my self-taught super ability...........patience.

Hasbro have said that there will be a MP figure released around September, and we know that Grimlock was their idea, not Takara's.
