MP Grimlock looks really cool. Yes I believe there was an episode where Grimlock was a waiter. It was at some intergalactic space conference I believe, middle of season 3 me thinks.

*Takes coke that waiter Grimlock offers him.*

Congrats for the items :D !
Grimlock is awesome and detailed and seems imposing.
In robot mode stands well with face and golden chest and in alt has several good articulations

Deszaras,it seems that in one pic Grimlock has blue eyes in robot mode just as in the toon;I prefer the red ones but it's good to see thay you can change color also in this mode,not just the alt.

Here's another custom someone else made and I found it and purchased it! It's a Custom Universe Grapple! And I also took a group shot of all the various G1 rescue bots! It's a pretty good repaint, however the two little attached and glued on plastic pegs that hold Grapple's crane are not too sturdy. And I need to find some stickers for him.

As for my original G1 Grapple figure out front, he's only missing three tires, two back ones and one front one. Nothing is broken except for his little end hook. His joints are still pretty tight. however I just bought another one to replace him. If anyone is interested in buying my old one, PM me! First come, first serve!

Unfortunately at this time I dont have a camera, but I just purchased a MIB Masterpiece Ultra Magnus. Probably my absolute favorite of all the masterpiece line, dont have Grimlock yet. I also purchased an Overlord from Minerva. With the parts from her figure, and the ones I won on fee-bay, he's almost complete! will post pics as soon as I get a camera.

Hey Jose! Why are you baffled about Hauler and Artfire? :wink: Explain buddy! :? Artfire is a Japanese only released piece and I believe Hauler is too!

hauler is an e-hobby exclusive, he was never part of jap g1. he was basically spawned by the sloppy animators including a green grapple as a background filler.

TT summed up pretty well, Lance. Anyway, I don't have either of them, and I remember some years ago an Artfire was heaps expensive, like the other Japan-only targetmasters. However, Artfire and Stepper are the only ones which rock my boat, because they are based on older figures. Of the two, Artfire to me is tops, as it's more realistic than a black Porsche 935 trying to resemble a Pontiac Firebird! :?

I'm sorry to hear that, Hound. I'm afraid that I don't have a head for him, but someone else around here might. :)

Glad to see they got there. Where'd you find the SDF-1? Does it transform?

Had a little luck myself at a flea market yesterday. Seaspray $.08, ultra magnus blue/silver head $.25, perceptor scope $.25. Beastwars leg $.05, beastwar prowl tail sword $.10 And something I think is "silverhawks steelwill stronghold" bird $.25.
