TOY NEWS FOR 4/25/2014 - TAKARA/HASBRO - TRANSFORMERS MASTERPIECE - GRIMLOCK (RE-RELEASE - TOYS R US EXCLUSIVE)

For those of you who just can't afford the over-inflated after market prices on the original Takara Masterpiece Grimlock, you're getting a second (third, if you count the original TRU release, too) chance to add him to your collection.

Later this year, Grimlock will be released again as part of Hasbro's Transformers Masterpiece line.

No word on a specific release date or price, but I expect he'll be under $100. The big question is however: will anyone be able to find him at retail? MP Optimus was near impossible to find, as was MP Soundwave. Meanwhile, Thundercracker and Acid Storm were much easier to find on the actual shelves.

I suppose only time will tell. Hopefully, at this point, TRU has learned how to more accurately order exactly how many they can sell through without them either clogging up the shelves of disappearing the same day they're stocked.




More info as it becomes available.
