I think the price tag all but confirms that MP Grimlock will be one big, complex Transformer

see heres the thing, the MPs have been spot on accurate,so if this followes suite, then grimlock should be taller than prime and megs which would explain the increase in price

I don't know if I'd quite agree with that... Prime and Megs are the same height because come on, they gotta be the same height. But the seekers' size was in all likelihood determined by the length of their jet mode, which was the same (30cm) as the height of Prime/Megs' robot modes. The seekers were juuuust a bit short in robot mode, don't you think?

 

I'd anticipate that Grimlock is also this height in robot mode.

 

You may be right, and what you say about the Seekers' alt modes makes a lot of sense. I can see Grim being the same height as Prime/Megs in robot mode, but big and bulky in dino mode. And really, that's all that counts. Who's seriously going to display him as a robot?

Who's seriously going to display him as a robot?

I get the feeling I'll be switching mine up every so often, like I do Prime.

Agreed. People who refuse to import have no room to complain about all the cool imports they're missing out on. It's like people who buy game console X and then complain about exclusives for console Y.

I have to wonder though - do we really NEED a $150+ version of Grimlock?

God knows I don't.

 

Same here. I never pay any more than $70.00 for any TF. If he were to come to the USA, he'd cost that much. That's why I don't import. The prices are jokes.

This is why you :fail. lol A REAL Transformer fan has to be willing to pay HIGH prices for gems to display all over their room & never touch them. :roll

 

No but seriously, if you complain about EVERYTHING Has-Tak puts out, you ARE a Transformers fan. :P

Yes and from what Hasbro told us about the upcoming year in Transformers, a US release of MP Grimlock wouldn't come out until at least 2010, if ever.
