Grimlock's Attack

[mhfplayer]

what is Grimlock's attack? there is a button on the bottom of his body and it is pressed against the rock on the ground when he is leaned forward...but what after that? looking at the prototype the jaw, head, and body are all seperate pieces, like his head extends out and his jaw opens as if biting. anybody have a different theory or have confirmation for this theory?

A biting attack would be very cool but I think it was confirmed that Grimlock would prod with his head, therefore being a prodder.

[mhfplayer]

that is what I meant but his jaw opens during the whole attack.

Maybe it sticks out its head, bites, pulls fig down to its doooom, that would be cool. I think its a prodder

That would be pretty sweet...He is probably a prodder though. Also, (if you have seen the pics of the Transformers Series 3 you will know what I'm talking about) has anyone noticed that yellow Autobot ( can't remember name)? He has that crane thing over his head. He looks like he could have an attack similar to Grimlock's...

[Megazarak]

You are talking about Grapple and yes they could be similar, except that Grapple will most likely have the traditional button.

I got to play with one at C4. He's pretty cool...but what robotic dinosaur isn't?!

When his belly button is depressed, his head/neck prods out. It has about the same force most prodders do. You can lock him with head up so that when you push his head down his neck pops, or you can lock the spring with his head really low, so his neck pops when you pull him upward.

It's an interesting figure. Good fun.

I am soooo taking credit for calling his attack. I can't find it in the thread, but I am on record saying that he was a prodder.

Congratulations, I remember that. Even though it was near inevitable (that you would be right), the majority of people wished for the attack to be something special, like a bite.

The earliest post I can find that mentions a Grimlock prodder is from thecasualoblivion, seen here:

attacktix.proboards22.com/index.cgi?board=trans&action=display&thread=1168489094&page=3

However, I did find a post from greyelephant on the same thread (first page, I think) stating how dumb a Grimlock prodder would be... Sorry, it was bugging me, I just had to investigate!
