Ain't no one got time for calmly walking around children.

That was me when I finally found the earthrise allicon.

@@geo-fry6372 I got that figure yesterday together with core class Megatron and Rattrap

@@nikolausnikolausnikolaus Nice finds. I I don't have core Megatron (yet), but those are all really fun figures. I'm excited for core Megatron and Sound wave because I'm a sucker for tiny things

@@geo-fry6372 Same

You know it, but not that one.

@Cody Anger Believe you me, I am aware of that.

@Cody Anger Ehh more annoyed. Like really didn't you get the universal feed back the first time that no one wanted this Hasbro?

I think he's going in everyone's useless accessory bag.

@@PerspectiveEnd I'm gonna try to give him knees. He does make for a really cute companion for Grimlock, just hanging out on his back. Considering that's what he's meant to do, he does it ok.

Why throw him in bag when you can have him be crushed by any other figure?

@@eyywannn8601 Cause that would mean I'd have to keep him on my shelves taking up space for real figures.

I still keep him in his box lmao.

oh hi there

Yeah, I don't know how Galvatron could ever live up to this, he isn't half as cool as a Robot T-Rex, and I mean can you blame him for it? What IS?

I take it you two know each other.

Funny, I just opened mine today after having him for a week. Fun transformers and definitely my favorite Grimlock I own

I saw you in discord on docs server

Really looking forward to all of those. Swoop Who I just really like, Sludge who's my Low Key Favorite, Slag who's toy was important to my childhood, Snarl who just looks dope with all the spikes. And what would really be cool is them inserting Slash into the time line. Like don't even pretend you aren't interested in an 86 Slash even though she wasn't in the movie.

@@PerspectiveEnd I hope grimlock would be in transformers the rise of the beasts 2023.

Thank you very much. He does not use a sword at any point during the movie, or at any point in the show. It is a fantastic figure, and If I had to go hungry to get it I would. But that's just me.

All will be destroyed, should they dare oppose me, even if that opposition is merely unintentional physical intersection with my path. I am the unstoppable force, and they are not the immovable object.

All who stand in my path shall perish

Still need to find that Jazz, and I can say with confidence you want the Grimlock for good reason.

There is no such dude.

Tarn maybe

Me Grimlock Superior, Distribution Inferior.

@@babylonknights1160 I know. He's like in my top 3, if not top 2.

The mainline Studio Series toy was amazing too

its not since 13 years the studio series is good, potp grimlock its not that trash is just more like a toy, howerver the deformed proportions are weird, to incorporate the combiner thing, but the way they painted the golden parts is great, and i dont like the gap in animated grimlock's neck

I take it we aren't counting the PotP as a Good Figure, and we are only going with Official Figures, but isn't the MP a bit newer than Animated, so are we also not Counting MP?

The Mainline Studio Series is not Grimlock. It is a Golem with his name, and a Similar Altmode.

I don't think there's any denying that PotP Grimlock just wasn't what people wanted.

Yeah, I think what happened with that is that Distribution is entirely messed up, so one store in a region will get the stock for all the others. I've been to store after store without a single Grimlock, then one store will have like 10. And I love it too, one of the best figures in the last few years.

Yeah their guns were what was more featured in the show, but the swords are so much more thme.

Nice. Glad to hear he's so good he can make immense pain not matter.

So this was the first figure you've picked up in years? Great Choice.

You will have had three shots by the end.

He is wonderful, and I don't know what kind of insufferable sourpuss could not find it in their heart to love him.

Yeah, it's impossible to find what you are looking for right now. But I would caution you that Netflix Bumblebee is just ER Cliffjumper, so if you are like me and don't care for that figure, you won't be impressed with Bumblebee, but you probably already know that.

I got the bumblebee for Christmas

@@PerspectiveEnd I got both of them lol

@@diegoleon4708 You poor poor man.

@@paulkilcline1168 Well I hope you like it. I don't want people to dislike the stuff the get. I just want to warn them away from stuff I think they may not like.

I like how he's just completely silent in the corner.

@@PerspectiveEnd (menacing)

Yeah, I do treat those with a bit of care, you can operate those less harshly.

I still can't find kingdom figures in stores, and I live in the US, and most of them aren't on sites over here either. I'll say that Grimlock here makes more sense for ER, cause ERs leaders were clearly forced into the role either by coming from previous lines, or by having TACKED on trailers. Doubledealer was much more in line with this Grimlock.

@@PerspectiveEnd I'll be honest, I've never really been too upset about the WFC leaders. I've found them all to be really good figures with amazing engineering, and enough accessories and features to make them worth it. I've never really understood why it's been that big of a deal that they're smaller, because at the end of the day, you're still getting your money's worth in engineering, articulation, and sheer mass

What this one isn't Pink what the hell! And I have seen many thing is my travels across the known universe no the least of Which being 86 Grimlock.

@@PerspectiveEnd rip pink, but yes one of the bravest people to travel across to get the 86 grimlock

What's up everyone this is Cr1tikal and I review Transformers and Dildos now. That's just all my channel is from this point forward.

Yeah, but this also looks way different than the movie, as I already laid out.

Still cant find Jazz or Kup though, and I think the reason getting a Grimlock is so hard is now kind of obvious.

Yeah it was a pain, I wish they'd just rerelease it for the people who need one. And I just hope you don't pay too much and wind up loving it.

@@PerspectiveEnd I also hope the package refresh doesnt get scalped to hell and back. Cause them ebay prices are a crime against humanity 💀

Not a bad guess and you would have been right three days ago.

That does sound plausible.

It's the Brock Sampson of Grimlocks.

@@PerspectiveEnd yes

I especially love how it defeats every single claim that the dumb voyager sized figures are leader priced because they're more complex, less hollow, more articulated, and have better guns. Grimlock doesn't have and single hollow gap part in either mode, is still fairly complicated, has great articulation, and an absolutely solid gun while still actually feeling like a leader class.

@@NexusProductions-rz1sv Well he's got the wrist gap, but that's like 1 thing he can get away with that.

@@PerspectiveEnd He's so good that that is completely forgettable. Though yeah, if Wheelie was to be sacrificed for anything, the arms splitting and the hand rotating down would be it. And that's only like 2 extra parts.

Yeah, I've been hearing that, that that's absolutely idiotic. Hasbro messed up a good design, and people asked me to criticize it, and I defended them thinking there was no way they were that dumb, and it was infact the proven idiot photographer messing stuff up.

So then what are the pegs on top of the shoulder things for?

@@PerspectiveEnd Frankly it's one of those figures that you could have a world renowned professional photographer take pictures of it and it would still look like crap.

@@NexusProductions-rz1sv NOOOOOTHIIIING!!!

@@NexusProductions-rz1sv I guess, I think Armored Robot mode looks great still.

Thank you. I was proud of those moments. You should see the one where I threw Broadside in the trash.

I wish my stores were getting consistently stocked.

@@PerspectiveEnd I feel you. At some point Mid January I would only see, at most like 3 Cyberverse figures at multiple locations.

@@renegonzalez8258 That's what it's like now for me. Maybe they will have one other figure.

If you like snarl then snarl I might get all of them tho

If the leaks are trusted, snarl is coming next year.

Why not get all of them. I hope Snarl will be good, but I am unsure yet not seen it. If it's anything like this though it will be great.

You can't stop me from getting all of them. I will go hungry to get all of them.

That sounds about right. We know Slag is next, and if it's one to a Wave, then he's going to be at least in the third wave which would put him at the end of the year, or later.

Man that sound like the opposite of Pre-ordering. You pay early to receive later.

@@PerspectiveEnd yes. It's expected to arrive in August or something like that.

@@warpswitch1119 That is NOT two months late. August is 6 months away, and these have been out since last month.

@@PerspectiveEnd takara is only going to launch their version in may and give it to the supplier in June so yeah.

@@PerspectiveEnd I mean it will be received by the guy I got it from 2 months after takara gives it to the suppliers because Japan is kinda far from where he lives. It would take another unknown number of months to reach me.

I don't even play those games.

Why cheese? Also yes I do believe you are right, I probably subconsciously did that.

So far going off a sample of 1 Grimlock, it looks like the thing to get is the Dinobots, but the others may not live up to this one. Personally I will be getting all of them, because I'm a hopeless addict who's bad with money.

I think he might have been intended for Earthrise. Think about it. Earthrise had one TRUE leader Class, the other was an Optimus with a TACKED on trailer, and the last one was a Leader from the Previous line. Those scream to me that they were forced into higher price point to fill gaps left from moving other stuff around. Doubledealer has way more in common with Grimlock than he does the either of the other Leaders from his line.

@@PerspectiveEnd I'm not sure about that. Astrotrain felt more like an Earthrise figure, and both him and Optimus came out before the whole thing. And it feels more like Kingdom because Optimus was re issued to that wave despite having already been widely available and currently on sale, and having another figure in the same wave. And to also mention it, Kingdom seems to be leaning towards aspects from the G1 comics and the episode of G1 where the characters time traveled to the past. Cyclonus, Ultra Magnus, and Galvatron were done in a marvel comic depicting the reformatted Decepticons from TF:TM traveling back to 1986 and fighting the Autobots in that time. Warpath and a few others were in the knights of the round table episode of G1. In the G1 comics the Dinobots were ejected from the Ark as it was crash landing. They took dinosaur forms to blend in with the wildlife and faced off with Shockwave, which is believed to be an inspiration for Beast Wars. I believe in the comic as well that the Insecticons were also active at that time, and took insect modes for the same reason, which would also lean in to that theory.

Yeah, and that one offends me so greatly. It's not even a good Figure, and they are just reselling it in a line that was better than that.

I have used him in Many Size Comparisons before, I tried to make it clear how big he was. He is almost the size of old Leader.

To a store near you, buy now!

Thank you very much, and yeah he's worth the wait, at least you aren't one guy in these comments who thinks his will be in, in August.

@@PerspectiveEnd hey man he’s on cmdstor

They Typically do actually. The only Grimlock I can think of that doesn't is the PotP. Yeah the MP isn't very good. Worst thing about his is ball jointed shoulders that cant get out one quarter as far as they need to without popping off. Well that and the fact that he holds together like a Chinese knock off you find at the dollar store.

@@PerspectiveEnd Does the mp have ankle tilts? I can't tell.

Well thank you for all that praise, but I don't quite get the last sentence, I almost wonder if you forgot to put in a criticism you were thinking about writing. I feel like that reads "You're videos are good and unique. But don't worry they are good and unique." And What I will always say. What's cooler than cars? Robots. What's cooler than robots? Dinosaurs. What's cooler than Dinosaurs? Robot Dinosaurs.

@@PerspectiveEnd I was just saying your presentation and creative style is unique. From the channel name to fast talking are attributes to the charm of your channel and if I were you I wouldn't ever change a thing.

Same here. I still need the last two from Kingdom wave 1 and I need the last two from 86.

Where do you live that that's a viable option. I'm having a Similar experience with Gamer Edition Optimus, Legacy Armada Optimus, and 86 Snarl right now.

I feel you on that, thought this is still excellent as is.

I mean I guess it kind of counts, and are you saying you got the 86 one?

@@PerspectiveEnd I only have a wait I just remembered I have the one step changer and the war for Cybertron one

I mean you aren't really missing anything with the Wheelie, but yeah this is way up there in terms of Grimlocks, it's so good.

Thank you, unfortunately there are no body Pillows of this Waifu.

How you feeling about the figure?

@@PerspectiveEnd its just...how do i put this? Nutworthy?

@@OmegaTheReal I didn't need to know that, thank you.

@@PerspectiveEnd lol

That's like the one version of this mold that I wanted that I missed out on. Glad to hear they did it even better on the QC Front.

Grimlock Pirouettes s away.

Yeah it's pretty high up there gotta say.

Yeah, I've still never seen one of those IRL, or a Slag, but there are a million Toxic Grimlocks everywhere.

Thank you, I though it was quite Eye Catching.

It's a sing that you should stop? Anyways yeah, getting him was a pain, but totally werf.

It was a pain to get but so worth it. And thank you.

@@PerspectiveEnd Edit: uh yeah so i got most of the 86 line but no grimlock i want him and....i rather stub my little finger than to get kup

@@diegoleon4708 Kup's not Terrible, he's just go issues.

@@PerspectiveEnd ok i wanted to get him until i saw his head dang he is ugly

I know that feel, I bought a Halo figure the other day, just to not go home empty handed for like the third time in a row.

@@PerspectiveEnd Literally the only smidge of anything I was able to find was a crappy old Generations Jetfire that had no knee articulation, no instructions, and everything fell apart. I promptly got my 18 bucks back. F that

If I had access to a 3D Printer and knew how to use one I'd do it.

That would be incredible. I personally don't see it happening, but 5K by then sounds like it's in the cards, but we will see. I hope you are right.

This guy does some really interesting stuff with the Joints I didn't Mention, and I really wish I did.

@@PerspectiveEnd also is it just me or is the crotch and upper legs just a remould of the earth rise optimus’ legs

@@gameboycustoms9231 No. Other figures have done this design too. They are just using the same type of engineering for it , and it works out on Grimlock way better because his hips aren't the same color as his thighs meaning it doesn't look like his legs are like 1/5th longer than they should be.

@@PerspectiveEnd I know they used similar systems on different figures. In my opinion it works best on the seige seekers

Who says I'm not actually just Blurr him self.

It was probably over produced after the initial drought like Shockwave was.

It also Startreks rocks out of existence. But it wouldn't call it a smokey thing, and it's usually fire.

Makes sense, it's a FANTASTIC figure, and I love it so much. Grimlock hasn't had justice done to one of his figures since G1.

@@PerspectiveEnd I completely agree with everything you said in the review so glad to finally have an affordable Grimlock figure that's so good and to get just any Grimlock figure that has reasonably sized shoulders

@@creationmatrix4760 I don't know where those shoulders came from, and why does every company out there like to give him them. They don't look powerful they look bloated. Must have come from the WFC Games.

dude walmart SUCKS with stocking Transformers and LEGO.. I would go to Target!

@@BurntTM I wish I had the choice lol us in Canada used to have target but they went out of business here a couple of years ago, there stock was so much better when they were here tho

@@Enforcedformula Oh man I feel bad for you, I would love to know how they went out of business..

@@BurntTM Without the target exclusives items people were expecting from US targets, and the higher costs kinda killed it on entry

@@Enforcedformula dang I feel bad

What, you don't like Grimlock's Iconic Wings?

@@PerspectiveEnd yes, I prefer the look of Fall of Cybertron Grimlock, and being able to make this 86 Grimlock much more slimmer is a nice feature

@@Shockblade95 Cant say that I get it. The wings are just classic Dinobots.

I don't need another version of Grimlocks Crown that was only in one panel of the comic ever. I've got like 7 of those. I don't know why people remember the crown so much, it wasn't even a Cool Design like Starscreams.

@@PerspectiveEnd big dinosaur robot man + crown = cool simple math

@@olchapplobro5258 Well then give him a cooler crown.

I saw that it looks crazy good, and I love how the only thing you keep from the existing Wheelie is the head.

I said Toddler, how old are you? Also if you are a toddler, I'd like to see you control a full sized machine gun, it weighs more than you do.

Reject Everything Embrace ROBO Lizard.

Thanks for the sympathies, but it's fine. I don't hate the hunt but this is beginning to push the boundaries of my tolerance. TFsource doesn't have anything in stock on my end, it's all on pre-order all the time.

It's worth it when you finally find it.

​ @PerspectiveEnd most targets i go to tell me another store had it. so when I go to that target I don't see it on the shelf. so I ask a clurk and they say they have it in stock. but it's not on the shelf and they tell me it's not in the back. most of the time they then tell me it must be around the store someplace and then say I could just wander around looking for it.

@@knetge Yeah I don't even bother asking at this point, if it's not on the shelf I just go to a different store, after a quick search to make sure some Ragamuffin didn't move it to a different shelf.

I'm happy to hear that you were able to partake of the awesome.

I mean it's only been like 2 ta 3 years since the last one. The last one just wasn't any good.

its a waste of plastic, nobody asked for him, i dont care for some gaps in figures hands like this, but what upsets me are those useless static plastic shit like weelie

That's the least of his problems my guy.

Agreed, all we wanted is the sword.

The clip that's intended for storage where the gun is upside down?

@@PerspectiveEnd I know but you can face it the right way to make it look like he's holding it.

Hop[e you didn't get scalped for it.

I knew this figure was going to be good, but I kind of tempered my expectations, so I didn't think it was going to be this good.

Oh yeah, it's fantastic.

The G1 toy did have the bottom teeth though.

Pretty sure it was meant for Earthrise at this point.

@@PerspectiveEnd It could’ve been a figure that would tie both Earthrise and Kingdom together like with Astrotrain.

It's hillarious how the only think you keep from that is the head.

I wouldn't necessarily say the best Grimlock, but for sure the best Chug Grimlock.

Distribution!!! Why is it so messed up?

@@PerspectiveEnd I know right!? I can’t even find Cyclonus!

Well you see the Masterpiece was insanely flawed because it tried to be an Update of the G1 Grimlock, the toy loyalty was already bad enough considering it could be better engineered now, but they also did a bad job of it. So I'd say that it's an upgrade of both honestly, though I feel like it was more trying to correct the MPs mistakes than update the G1 again. A Transfroming Wheelie was what I was hoping for. Even if it was just a repack of the one we got a few years back.

Man when I say it's good, people seem to stand up and take notice.

That would make sense. I mean the SHOVED Optimus into Leader Class, and Astrotrain from another Toyline. Plus As weird as it was Doubledealer was much more in line with the old Leader Class than the new one. So they probably intended to go back to Old Leader with Earthrise.

@@PerspectiveEnd maybe, I feel like with the leader class it's more about the scale of a character, like Grimlock is generally thought of as being quite imposing and large not the biggest but larger than voyager. But then a character like Optimus or Shockwave are gonna be voyager but they need to add stuff to try and justify the leader price point, the trailer for Optimus makes sense but it's not enough to be a leader class. Shockwave in siege I feel was more then filling a quota for leader class figures, like they need three (I think) per line, with siege we got Ultra Magnus, shockwave and Astrotrain, earthrise we got Optimus, Doubledealer and Astrotrain as a reissue. And there was no room for grimlock in ER, even in Kingdom we got an Optimus reissue, BW Megatron and Galvatron. Could also explain why Rodimus has been bumped up to commander class maybe. Feel like Galvatron should be a voyager and Rodimus a leader at most but they've bumped em up because they know they can.

@@William_995 I agree with basically all of that. And yeah Shockwave justified it way more than Optimus did

@@PerspectiveEnd definitely, very fun figure

Comrade Wheelie is best Wheelie. No one would hate if he spoke like Gopnik rather than Rhyme.

Someone actually just mentioned that yesterday, and while that would make sense, the Masterpiece Grimlock actually predates that game by 3 years. So while it may still be true, and it's just a coincidence, there is evidence against it.

I wonder why they decided that MP2.0s always have to be smaller than the 1.0 versions.

@@PerspectiveEnd the masterpiece 2.0 that shall not be named was actually bigger than the original slightly

@@Kuriboh1008 I was more making a joke on the 1.0 Optimus and Megatrons.

@@PerspectiveEnd ik but Mp 45 and any mention of it shall not be allowed in this household

Well aren't you the lucky one. I had to try and try to find one.

@@PerspectiveEnd thanks

It is absolutely the best 86 figure, you are correct.

Clearly something, because they keep doing it on dinos. They must have some logic to it.

I wish I'd seen a crap ton of Deluxes, all I can find are Blurrs. No one want's Blurr and while that figure is not Terrible, I can't blame them for making him the line's Shelf Warmer.

I'd be OK with those, but I'm so glad to be Receiving Leader class Dinobots. So stoked.

That's a solid theory but this is what the G1 toy looked like. www.transformers-universe.com/content/images/galerie/pics/18/5494.jpg
