  • A showcase and review of Leader class G2 Universe Grimlock from the Transformers Legacy Evolution. This color scheme was based of a previously unreleased G2 artwork! Hope we will get more Dinobots with fancy colors!
    Thanks for watching!

    This Grimlock is a champion in my heart.

    Legacy G2 Universe Grimlock is such a cool figure, though I agree with you that the stripes should have been more generous. It's hard to believe that this is an official figure, but here it is! My arrived in today's post, but I haven't been down to the office to open it yet. I'd love to see the two released G2 variations of this-blue and turquoise-though that would start to get mega-expensive. G2 versions of the core dinobots would be more wallet friendly. Maybe we'll get green Swoop and orange Sludge one day, too.

    I dig the colors, but I like the Shattered Glass better. Thanks for the review. 👍

    Great review, man!
    You are absolutely right about all those gripes!
    [All those obvious lacunas in the toy could have actually been perfected by repurposing the original budget put into that solid block of plastic that was Wheelie (which is somehow missing from this set now ~ yet we are neither compensated for it price-wise nor given any bonuses in its vivid absence)! If this isn't 'daylight robbery', then what is, my man?
    Stay awesome!

      Conviniently missing… just because the other dinobots came without a wheelie

    @anthonysmith9564 Před rokem +7

    Criticisms aside, if you look the original art work, this is 100% faithful to that same paint job. Minus the wheelie I would have at least liked to have seen him issues with a sword. That’s where the plastic budget should have gone. Other than that I love this figure. Shame I don’t have room for it lol

    • @Eiienzero2-tb2tk
      @Eiienzero2-tb2tk  Před rokem

      That is true it is faithful to the artwork. It just looks bad… also Yeah I would like a sword too! Do get him! Find space! I honestly think he is worth it. The color is so unique. I thought toxitron was bright but this guy is brighter

  • @primalconvoy
    @primalconvoy Před 9 měsíci +2

    The original (unreleased) G2 Grimlock didn't seem to have stripes that went above the tail either, so perhaps that way was a closer homage? However, the robot chest was (solid?) grey, with the decal then looking much better over the centre of the chest.

    • @Eiienzero2-tb2tk
      @Eiienzero2-tb2tk  Před 9 měsíci

      Yeah I learned that the strips are only on his tail. It would be nice if it was all over

    The trypticon colored "shattered glass" one is the only one of these grimlocks I've been able to get so far. Weird how none of the grimlocks till this g2 one used the clear plastic neck. could be misremembering this, but I think all the other ones are clear plastic as well but painted over. The chest pattern isn't due to him being not an autobot, it's due to the fact the grimlock in that artwork had a bit of technical detail instead of an autobot logo there. They really should have just made a new chest piece for this one and put some more of the stripe pattern on it. Overall this figure kinda reminds me of Greymon from Digimon with these colors lmao.

    • @Sleesus
      @Sleesus Před rokem +1

      A lot of people that have the things have been getting scratched figures because they use that " no window open box" kinda packaging they've been doing for their non-leader releases lately. Thankfully mine only had a lot of dust on it with some minor paint defects.
      I missed out on both the Titans return Trypticon (when it was discounted no way I'd be able to afford full price lmao) and the normal Leader Grimlock from a few years ago so having a figure that combines elements of both of them is something really satisfying to me lmao. Still baffles me that all 3 of these grimlock releases don't come with his sword.

    • @Sleesus
      @Sleesus Před rokem +2

      CZcams somehow glitched and deleted the first halfof my comment or something, so I'm typing it out again
      The shattered glass one is exclusive to hasbro's online pulse site over here in the US/Canada region, but I've seen some people elsewhere get it from other places though I don't where or how.

    Despite the cons he has, he is probbly still worth getting if you want to owned that mold given that the original SS86 version is going by scalper price now! Trust me, I have look and I ain't paying over £100 for him! Well it's either the G2 or the SG versions!

    Same price with SS86, but with no Wheelie? That budget for Wheelie could be spent on a sword or more stripes or better chest piece.

    Low effort repaints are what Hasbro does best... well, MOST, if perhaps not BEST. At least one (and usually two or more if you include head-swaps as well) for each and every mold.
