Yeah, grabbed him for 40 on ShowZ after using some of my points. Right out the package I understood why US retailers expect the figure to still sell even with the markup. It’s super solid and painted crazy well. If you’re a Grimlock fan it’s a must have, if you’re a G1 toon fanatic and a Grimlock fan you’ll regret not picking him up, even at US prices.
60 bucks on ShowZ is super worth it but in the states they are overpricing it way too much. I love this figure probably my favorite Grimlock in any scale
ShowZstore has him for $61 if ur put off by the prices here in the states, which is more than reasonable imo,cause after tax and shipping ur gonna be paying $125-$130 easy @the chosen prime which is a little ridiculous for a legends scale figure
Great review. I ordered almost all of these figures (I'm a sucker for repaints) from Show Z. These New Age figures will look great along with my Iron Factory Grimlock. This is such a great figure and we finally have some awesome legend scale Dinobots.
The problem with oversizing legends is there is no hardware or ratchets, it works at that smaller scale but larger scale the weight wouldn't be supported by friction joints
He looks amazing if I where to buy him I think I would have 2 get 2 cause the dino-mode is just as good as the robot mode,I heard the leg panels to cover the inside will be coming with the other dinobots it's just like their constructicons u get an upgrade kit after the fact 🤷♂️...thanx 4 video Sony 🙏👍
The articulation looks good, but can you make him do the Iron man pose in Dino mode? (Me trying to convince me not to buy haha 😁). Seriously, this figure is very impressive. I'm buying the "Toy version" but man... more than $500 for 5 Legends! 🤔 Sounds crazy 🤯😵
I collect very few Legends Scale figures but, the Dinobots will be one of them. The leg fillers came with Sludge, which I think is kind of stupid as I don't always collect the entire set so, had I not gotten Sludge, no leg fillers. My other Legends Scale figures are NewAge Optimus Prime, metallic version, and Skyfire in both regular and the Jetfire repaint. I used to have a bunch of Magic Square figures but, I hated the cheap plastic they used but, love the toon look. It was just getting way too expensive as these Legends Scale figures aren't cheap as some are Masterpiece prices.
FYI, I forgot to show the eye swap gimmick which is very cool, allows you to switch from blue to red
Imagine if this was Mp scale! Awesome review
I think it would need to be redesigned a bit to work for MP. For example some ratchets and better hardware to support the weight. Thanks for watching

I agree 💯. They know people gonna buy him.

I refuse to buy NA at US retail.
He looks sooooo good. I'm about to order him and plan on getting the metallic and G2 variants as well
They had me up until the price. Awesome Review!
Yeah... hopefully they come down a bit, thanks for watching memo

Agreed.
This does look amazing. Love Newage.. Great Review 🌟🤓
Thanks for the opportunity

Agreed, very tempting
Thank you!
this looks awesome
Man I really want a 4th party to upscale this guy to mp scale, I've wanted toon accurate dinobots for years now.
I hope some 3rd party gonna make an improved and oversized based on this mold, because this figure is so close to perfection

@@TMReviews fair point, but still though 🤣
In botmode don’t forget to decompress the arms from Dino leg mode into the shorter Bot arm mode. Stops the gorilla arms look
I doing that’s and it’s stuck forever 🥲
My slides elbow of this guys has stuck
really cool figure
Yay, appropriate emoji use!!!!

Noice review!
Thanks
What ever happened to the covers for the legs they teased?
I have the same question

Where can I get that specific tool to open his chest? Mine is stuck shut. My normal pryer (Asian ear scraper) is too thick.
Spudger, available for a few bucks on Amazon
@@TMReviews sorry to ask but which one on Amazon do you recommend? There are so many and I am not sure which one/set would be small enough
U can store the sword hilt in the dino mode.
Cool
The toon model seems to work better on legends figures imo, probably because of the size or something
Yeah it might be the size, when it's big there are large plain areas of plastic and that can be ugly
@@TMReviews and sometimes the toon model in a smaller form looks adorable
For sure
The paint on the chest looks a bit too lemony.
