Info: The fourth installment in my video review series for people who don't have the time for video reviews focuses on Animated Grimlock. You know the drill, all the necessary details, no fluff, and a 0 to 5 score. This might be my favorite toy to get this treatment.
In Depth: I'll elaborate on the leg transformation I liked so much but couldn't point out in the video. The back pieces of the toy fold down along with the legs, then fold over to fill the back of his legs and make him really well balanced. It's a really inventive upgrade to the transformation which suffered in the past from "hollow leg syndrome". If there's any complaint I could have it's that we've seen the transformation scheme a lot, it's pretty much the same one G1 and Energon Grimlock used. Classics Grimlock at least showed there are other ways to transform him from beast to bot.
