Bought the MP Grimlock back when it was new and it’s been chilling happily with my CHUG collection ever since. Many figures have been replaced and updated, but that Grimlock is still the best version of the character we’re ever gonna get in my opinion.

I have the 86 Grimlock, and the combination of missing front teeth in dino mode, as well as missing sword and crown accessories, is really making me consider getting a Masterpiece Grimlock instead of buying a bunch of filler upgrade kits. And besides, an MP Grimlock would scale better with the other 86 Dinobots. What version of MP Grimlock would you recommend?

I got my MP I think back in 2009-2010, it was a Toys r Us exclusive at $59.99, only came with his sword, gun and a crown though. I skipped out on SS86 Grimlock because the MP just does not need an update in my opinion.

That's the problem I have too. The MP is way easier to get that the Studio Series. The g2 repaint is easy to get, and there's the comic style one coming out, but this specifically is impossible to find. Stinks too, cuz I'm not sold on the head wiggle gimmick the MP has. I'd rather have the normal swivel the SS has

Studio series is the BEST! the point of the studio series is for the accurate representation from the animated movie. Grimlock is supposed to have white arms and solid yellowish gold pieces. All the extra metallic bling is from the G1 toys. Cool gimmick, but I prefer the Studio Series Grimlock.

What's a shame is Hasbro makes better looking figures now but only goes about 80% to make them worth buying. Gaps and lack of accessories are part of just about every release. Who was the genius that thought that including this static Wheelie figure would be better than a sword or perhaps filling in some of those unsightly gaps?!

If those are your only problems with it, their are loads of different upgrade kits you could find for the guy that cover holes, give him his front teeth/sword, and swap the chest peice. Just look up SS grimlock upgrade kit on ebay or general google and you oughta find somthing for fairly cheap

The funny thing is the MP version has those same screwholes on one side of the head and neck, but are filled in with filler pieces. There's a lot of similar engineering between SS and MP, but I'd say MP edges it out.

Good review. A suggestion from one enthusiast to another…. Let us not use euphemisms & actually call the bootleg items for what they are, counterfeit or a lil more PC, unofficial, NOT 3rd party/4th party. Hasbro is 1st party, retail stores are 2nd party, 3rd & 4th party are private citizens & private businesses re-selling Hasbro toys. OR if counterfeit, bootleg, & or counterfeit is too offensive, aftermarket is a proper substitute. Bootleg/aftermarket does not denote poor quality.

Glad you enjoyed the review, as it's a pretty old one and I sometimes have trouble watching my older videos. I mostly call things third party because it was a term everyone understood and used for unofficial TF, so it's easier to get the message across. Agreed that bootlegs aren't necessarily poor quality 👍

Always said the MP Grimlock was way too small to be an mp scale and was actually a chug scale Grimlock considering how big the dinobots were when they first showed up in the cartoon and now that you have shown it next to the SS 86 Grimlock and they are practically the same size it looks like I was right.
