Via the PCS Collectors’ Group we can share for you our first look at Pop Culture Shock G1 Grimlock “Transformation Sequence” diorama gray prototype.

This a very nice and original statue which shows different phases of Grimlock: Dino mode, mid-transformation and robot mode on top. Not much information about this piece but that it is planned for 2021.

The concept and the Grimlock design are great, but in the photos, it looks less like one bot's transformation sequence and more like three bots piling on top of each other.

My thoughts exactly.

Neat concept, interesting blend of evergreen and the complex designs of Bay/Knightverse characters, but a weird execution on the whole transformation thing, probably would have looked a bit better if the three Grimlocks were spaced out a bit more so it doesn't look so jumbled.

I hate to be "that guy" but why isn't this G1?
All the other PCS statues are.
I've got all their others, will have to wait and see how this turns out at the moment I'm well and truly on the fence.

It’s hysterical they even refer to it as ‘G1’, and yet it looks like some kind of freakish hodgepodge of IDW and Bayformers.

Looks like a grimlock gangpile rape scene. ……. Sorry . no mouth filter tonight. Too much going on for me.

Cool idea, I'm almost surprised we haven't seen a statue like this before. I feel like sculpt looks a bit busy here but maybe it will be easier to parse in color.

What a hot mess.. lol.
Luckily I dont collect statues.

Interesting concept, but I just don't think the stylization works here. Too much changes from dino to bot mode so that it looks like two different entities. Basically not enough shared design elements.
Also, is this licensed?
