    The claws (on his dino arms) are really sharp on the JP version, but filed down on the Hasbro version. The teeth look a little different as well, but not as obvious as the claws.

    Yeah, I didn't even notice this myself and thought that they were sharp enough on the Hasbro version. The TakTom version must be able to slice through a shoe

    The claws could easily draw blood, they are that sharp...

    I didn't notice either. Don't really care about it.

    You can telln that it's a collectors toy if it draws blood.

    LOL...
    i just checked and the hasbro version DOES have rounded off claws and teeth. its quite minor though as you cant even tell once hes on display. its like 1mm difference when you look at it from very close.

    Wouldn't it be cool if the takara version really does draw blood?? just awesome!!!
    unfortunately, cutting yourself with an metal twist-tie would have a much better chance of drawing blood than the takara grimlock can.

    You have no idea how many times i have seen my blood while dealing with Hasbro twist ties. I am sure that it has drawn the blood of countless kids. So much for safety when the packaging is more dangerous than the toy.

    Wow, could you post a pic of the teeth and claws. I see TT Grimlock has sharp claws, but I guess I just stayed away from them. Gonna go and have a poke now and see what the result is...

    I am feeling a little emo
