I officially hate MP Grimlock

After getting Scoria, Grimlock seemed inferior. Now that the stupid peg on his sword broke and he can't hold that nub of a handle, he officially sucks!!

Re: I officially hate MP Grimlock

Sorry to hear that. Waiting on my Scoria to arrive with no doubts it'll impress as a 3P MP but I'll reserve judgement until he's inhand.

I wonder if that's due to mold degradation.

I've had my Hasbro MP Grimlock for 4 years now with no issues.

I still believe it's the mold that signalled a better direction for whole the whole MP line.

Re: I officially hate MP Grimlock

I hate every official MP now, especially MP Hasbro Optimus and MP Hasbro Grimlock (2010), ever since I got Scoria. OK maybe not the Datsuns. The Hastak offerings just feel so cheap. The seekers are junk.

How can a 3rd party figure be better than the official Autobot leader and the Dinobot leader? That's just plain irritating considering I paid more for those two than I did this Scoria. Some of you might be thinking well those aren't Takaras, those are Hasbro. Doesn't matter IMO.

I was seriously considering getting Takara MP-8X reissue. Not a chance in hell now because I know Fans Toys is making their own Grimlock and also will offer it in the MP-8X colours, and guaranteed to be cheaper. Plus it will actually be MP-10 scale.

Cheap feeling materials, hardly painted, floppy ankles and over-complicated transformation. The YOTH Prime is way better quality IMO but still doesnt hold a candle to Scoria.

If you get a chance, hold Scoria in your hands and transform him once. You will know what I mean. QUALITY.

I agree after holding Quakewave though the figure is twice the cost.

Re: I officially hate MP Grimlock

Mold fatigue id say.
All my joints are loose on Hasbro MP Grimlock.

Hes been used and abused over the years.

Hate is a strong word.
