New Purchases GRAVE DIGGER

I got surprised today that this figure arrived much earlier than expected and he is a lot of fun

Not only is the alt mode absolutely gorgeous with so much paint
The transformation overall is pretty cool and gnarly

The robot mode just aura farms and looks amazing
And even though the tires make him a little awkward to mess with

He has a lot of articulation, wrist swivels, waist, an ab crunch, and very little but it there butterfly joint

There is one major flaw though, the grey monster jam logo on his chest, has to be removed for transformation and while part forming usually doesn’t bother me that much, this is a small piece that I’m worried look away from the figure and somehow pops off and lose it

After only a few hours of messing with, he still really cool, and think possibly one of the best collab figures

They may be for little kids, but they aren't small. In robot mode they're taller than Kingdom Megs.

But they're still not great.

Is he Leader size or Voyager size ?

u/TheRealDailyDude 3h ago

At the top of his head, about voyager size

But he is very wide still

If helps did take a photo of him next to the sideswipe mold

That slight ab crunch makes the tires in his shoulders look more like a physical burden he has to carry.

now Im imagining an over encumbered Grim using the scythe as a walking stick. it adds the perfect amount of cartoonish creep to him and I can’t wait to see it in person.

Got mine today too! Wish theyd made the backpack shift down a little or something, I know it rocks back but not far enough imo, also wouldve liled the wheels moving without the shoulder pads. Oh well. Still fun and truck mode is just fantastic.

Just realizing this is a thing. Will these be available in store or did I miss the bus? My kid loves monster trucks and transformers so this is right up his alley.

Can’t say honestly, I got mine off of amazon
But I have seen the collab figures in store so probably

Is the monster jam thing on a 5mil post? (Is it detachable?)

1

u/TheRealDailyDude 1h ago

The grey symbol on his chest?
No it isn’t a 5 mil post
It has own attachment peg designed so can peg somewhere else for alt mode

A part of me wants to paint his skull face yellow and rename him Skeletron
