When the first images of what we call the Authentics line were leaked, there were many outcries from the fandom as some believed this to be the "New" mainline going forward. Quickly it was explained that Authentics was a new budget line for Market Six stores. Shortly thereafter we were treated to images of upsized versions of the basics figures as well as Grimlock. Big Grim's look draws from primarily three designs; G1, Classics, and a touch of Power of the Primes. While this isn't a figure that will attract the average collector, it is a lot of fun and makes for a nice, simple transformer.
