I wouldn’t mind if after Legacy, this steps up and becomes the the new generations line. It’s using fantastic molds so far and it’s great paint, and of course it’s a great way to get rarer molds.

I tried getting that comic edition figure in very comic book stores in Dublin and Galway but no luck. Same can be said for Shockwave Straxus Flame and Emirate Xaaron

He looks very distinctive when compared to the other three versions of the mould in bot mode. Amazing how a different colour layout can make it feel like an entirely new thing. Definitely looks like the best use of the mould to me. I'm not the biggest Dinobot fan you will meet to be honest, but I was tempted when they revealed this. I decided against it in the end because I had other collecting priorities that I wanted to direct my budget into, but I do think he looks fantastic nevertheless. 👍

It’s a great looking bot pal. Even better in hand.

i dont think thats slags sword, it looks more like a colour accurate Snarl one. no harm giving it to him but i think the Slag one is coming with Swoop. still class vid man.

@ToysareRuss Ай бұрын

Thanks bud. I think you’re right. I messed up the swords there

Fun fact. Slag is waste metal deposits that comes from melting metal. As when you weld you have to chip away the slag afterwards. A slug is a snail without a shell. 😂😂. Great review. Hopefully mine shows up soon.

@dmonsef Ай бұрын

Hasbro from time to time don't use Logic! If the word Slag is offensive in the UK, then you name it something different in that country. Doesn't mean the rest of the World has to adhere to the name change to Slug!

@ToysareRuss Ай бұрын

I agree, I live in the uk and to me it’s always really meant molten metal.

@HERITAGE12 Ай бұрын

im honestly lost at the reaction to the term Slag. yes its duals as an offensive term but its SO mild its used on day time telly ! There really is no reason to have changed the name. meanwhile Hasbro KEEP releasing characters called "spastic" and the like with NO idea how that goes down . :D

Hello, does the comic version has the exact same grey color as the studio series? I'd like to buy the upgrade kit for the 86 version and use it on the comic version to give the poor dino some front teeth.

@ToysareRuss Күн бұрын

No the comic version is much lighter

After releasing three other color variations, I’m out on this. The shading was done horribly.

@dmonsef Ай бұрын

So SS86 Grimlock had the clear black shield covering his Autobot symbol, despite on his box showing it to be a clear shield. This Grimlock is the way it should have been all along, with the no shield covering the Autobot symbol! I don't understand where their reasoning was on the changes?

@HolyCow0273 Ай бұрын

The G1 toy had a translucent black shield piece on the chest. The animated series chose to depict it as clear giving off the illusion of it being yellow.

@dmonsef Ай бұрын

@@HolyCow0273 The Translucent black shield covering the Autobot Symbol was done by the designer because in Dinobot mode Grimlock would have had two Autobot Symbol's showing, one on his gray chest and the other upside down below his stomach. I'm sure Hasbro could have done something where his symbol shows if you slide a cover open or something, but Hasbro doesn't think creatively at times. It's all about putting a budget on a design, so they can pull in maximum profit margin. For a multi-billion dollar toy company, they can't go a little out of their way and lose just a little money per TF, just to give appreciation/incentive to the customer.
