Transformers G1 Grimlock Dinobot Series 2 AFA Y75 (Hasbro, 1985)....

Description

Transformers G1 Grimlock Dinobot Series 2 AFA Y75 (Hasbro, 1985). Leader of the Dinobots and one of the most recognizable Autobots of all time, Grimlock stomped onto the scene in 1985 as part of Transformers' Series 2. With his imposing Tyrannosaurus Rex alternate mode and simple but unforgettable speech pattern, Grimlock quickly became a fan favorite in both the Sunbow cartoon and Marvel comics. His figure, complete with sword, blaster, and missile launcher, remains a defining piece of Hasbro's early Transformers era. This example has been graded AFA Y75 EX+/NM, with subgrades of B80 W70 F85. The "Y" qualifier denotes window yellowing, a common occurrence for mid-1980s Transformers packaging, but overall, the piece retains solid condition across figure and packaging. Grimlock is more than just another Autobot-he's a cultural icon whose popularity has endured for decades, spanning comics, cartoons, and blockbuster films. This Series 2 release offers collectors the chance to capture the Dinobot commander in vintage packaging, a true centerpiece from the earliest years of Transformers history.
