IMO it's one of the worst Grimlock toys ever made*. For what you're looking for I'd recommend getting Classics/Henkei Grimlock over this toy - much better value for your dollar.

---------------------
*Only ones worse would be Action Master Grimlock, Energon Grimlock and Pretender Grimlock... I'd say that Animated Grimlock is relatively on par with Pretender Grimlock (comparing them by 2008 and 1989 standards respectively)
