    Default Masterpiece Grimlock LTD Ed reissue - with crown.

    This might please or annoy fans. Please those yet to get MP Grimlock, and annoy those who already have it. Or at least, give hope that the Hasbro version will have the Crown and not some weird cartoon themed accessories.

    In the recent Denki hobby magazine, a limited edition exclusive version of MP Grimlock will be released in around December, with the Crown from the comic, in place of the items the regular release had.

    Even the box will reference the Crown in the Marvel comics with special artwork on it.

    The figure will be available for pre-order between August 1 and September 11, 2009 and will be a Toy HobbyMarket exclusive.

    King Grimlock will retail for 13,000 Yen (~$137 USD).

    The figure will ship in the second half of December.

    They should sell the crown seperately for fans that didn't get it. I hate this sort of thing, let's just rip the collectors off a bit more shall we

    Even the plastic used and paint job are different too. TT is making my life difficult.

    Well I suppose this is TT's way of making money out of a mould that can't be redecoed. It's pretty stupid though, I can't imagine that there'd be a huge amount of people willing to buy a whole new piece just for the crown.

    Bwahahahaha!

    I am so glad I waited for this exact reason. And that box is amazing - I normally throw them out, but I'll keep that one for all time. I am one very happy Marvel comics fan indeed.
