Picked up TMNT on Blu Ray from Best Buy yesterday...

And while I ranted a little while back on "Look What I Passed Up" thread about how much I hated the new looks and designs of the new "Robots In Disguise" show coming up, I did pick up Grimlock because I dug his "Transformers Animated" throwback look, and for some reason, this particular alt mode really reminded me of Godzilla. I'll probably be removing that "Hub" autobot sticker, for a reprolabel...that thing looks terrible. I also saw BB, Lockjaw and the Prowl-Wannabe bots as well, but they were a very easy pass compared to ole Grim here...

And just a thought, if the new show is supposed to take place chronologically after the end of "TF:Prime" on Cybertron, then what the hell is the point of calling the show "Robots In Disguise?" How are they exactly disguising themselves, when everyone in Cybertron can turn into a car or jet? They should have just called it TF:Animated II (Electric Boogaloo...)

One more detail that I left out, despite the new line being sinfully ugly, and offering nothing new in the ways of sculpts, size, and transformation, it seems that Hasbro will also be charging more for the new waves. Grimlock rang up at $16.99, two dollars more than the $14.99 Bayformers and Generation lines. Thankfully there were $14.99 stickers all over the aisle, so that's what they ended up honoring in the check out line.

Even worse so...despite the increase in price, Hasbro is also FAILING TO INCLUDE INSTRUCTIONS with their deluxe figures now. All the instructions are now on the back of the blister card. So...they go cheap by leaving out the easy to collect and store instructions, and on top of that, raise the price? WTF Hasbro? Seriously?
