LOL! Never noticed that... guess TRU isn't so hot at transforming Transformers:) And hasn't Masterpiece Grimlock already been released - like several years ago?

Not domestically. Takara put him out in Japan a while ago (I'm pretty sure Dave reviewed him), but now the big guy's finally making his U.S. debut via Hasbro. I'll definitely be picking one up!
