He's been on the list for bleeding ages. Now where's the pictorial proof of its existence?

yeah but no picture coming but said:
http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/p...85&mode=retail
After years of rumors, Takara has finally announced the Masterpiece Grimlock figure! Takara has increased the retail pricing on this item to 13,000 yen, so we would expect this figure to be slightly larger and bulkier than previous Masterpiece figures, which were in the 10,000 yen MSRP range. More details to be listed as they are released.

Grimlock looks whizzy in robot mode, but a bit like Barney in dino mode.
Mickey Mouse. Well, thats just Prime.

hmm...there's a whooping price rise from previous 9800 yen (mp meg) to 13000 yen (mp grim)... for that price, he better have more die cast parts.

I think he looks a bit simple from that image, but I do like the little drink tray he comes with. I like Masterpieces to have a nicely complex transformation - if his is just the same as his G1 version I'll be disappointed.

interesting this is he mould reminds me of the shape Grimlock was in the
animated movie. He was always taller in that with a smaller head. It's not a
bigger mould of the original G1 proportionally.

Grimlock looks alright, but after the cosmic rust crap with Megs... I'm expecting it to have similar issues.
And what the f**k is up with that Mickey Mouse thing? He looks like a badly dressed Prime cosplay!

D...drink tray!? Seriously?!
That's one thing I like about Takara, they love their obscure cartoon references. And so do I.

Can't wait to see him in colour. And Mickeymus Prime looks pretty neat, actually.

I thought it had been confirmed it was a drinks tray from when he was a waiter at the start of Madman's Paradise.
