Transformers: Age of Extinction Turns Grimlock into Samurai Dino Hybrid

Seen the new redesign for Grimlock from Transformers: Age of Extinction yet? Here's the big boy now in his debut in the Bayverse.

No release date for the figure but it does shed new light on the character, as well as how he'll be treated in the Michael Bay directed fourth outing for the war between the Autobots and the Decepticons.

Fine, they look alike but there's just something wrong about Grimlock's new look. I guess I'm not happy with the paint scheme.

This is where things took the wrong turn for me. First he looks like a samurai warrior in Robot mode. We ditch the classic 'flaming sword' from Generation 1? Here's a comparison between the G1 Grimlock and the AOE version.



There are a couple of new additions for both the Autobots and the Decepticons. Regardless how crappy the movie turns out, I'm still clambering out to see this.
