| Grimlock participated in an enormous battle against the Decepticons... until Optimus Prime began talking about the plot of the [[live-action film series]] to the audience. He quickly grew bored during his leader's monologue and attempted to order a pizza over the phone. The beeping caused by Grimlock dialing up the pizza place kept on interrupting Optimus when he tried to spoil the plot of the [[Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|fourth film]]. Optimus settled with introducing Grimlock and the rest of the Dinobots. Then Grimlock's pizza arrived, and the fighting started up once again. {{storylink|Take Us to the Movies}} {{Storylink|Take Us Through the Movies}}

| Grimlock served as Optimus's mount as the two of them burst in on a bunch of Vehicons building the Galvatron Factory Battle set. Announcing that it was "Dinner Time!", Grimlock used a sort of tractor beam to draw his victims into his maw. He also got to stomp down on [[Lockdown (Kre-O)|Lockdown]], and kicked his head away. {{storylink|Commercial/Age of Extinction#Dino Force|Kre-O Dino Force commercial}}

| Grimlock went to game at the arcade, only to be infuriated over not being able to beat a particular game. As soon as he gave up the task, [[Fracture (RID)|Fracture]] came along and beat the game with ease! This sent Grimlock into a rage, and he began to rampage across the arcade... until he spotted a Foosball table, and went to play with it instead. {{storylink|Arcade}}

| :The ''Grimlock Street Attack'' set includes a buildable Dinobot beast Grimlock in his Dinobot form with 2 pairs of non-firing cannons. Grimlock also features two gimmicks, a grabbing claw on his tail, and a "Dinoforce Power" gimmick, which consists of a magnet in his mouth, which he can use to chomp down (if by chomp down, it mean magnetically grabs them with his mouth) the included Vehicon Kreons. The included Gold Knight Optimus Prime Kreon (or any other Transformers Kreon) can ride on Grimlock. The set also comes with a ''paifang'' Chinese gateway base with a swivel joint to smash through with.

| :Available only in the "Grimlock Unleashed" set, both the buildable Grimlock and the Grimlock Kreon are based on the Generation One looks of the character, despite the other Kreons on the set being based on their Age of Extinction versions. The Kreon comes with his Energo-Sword and two optional helmets, a Sideswipe-style one and a crown based on the time Grimlock led the Autobots. Unlike other Kreons, Grimlock has his faceplate painted on the figure face instead of added by the helmet.
| |
| | |
| : This set popped up at ToysЯUs a few short weeks after the initial product without any advance warning... and retailed for a mere $25, despite the size of the set.

| :Part of the 3rd wave of the Custom Kreon ''Age of Extinction'' Collection, this Custom Kreon Grimlock is based on his Age of Extinction counterpart. making heavy use of the new parts created for ''Kre-O Dungeons & Dragons'', what with the "knight" theme. He features a "bat'leth" blade-weapon from the ''Kre-O Star Trek'' line, a large chromed axe, a claw weapon, and a red sword, as a nod to his other Kreon from the Grimlock Unleashed set. He also come with extra-clear body parts. Unlike most toys of the ''Kre-O Age of Extinction'' Dinobots (including his large Dino Build in Grimlock Unleashed), Grimlock is colored in [[Show-accuracy|screen-accurate]] silver.
| |
| | |
| :Like the rest of his wave-mates, he saw very limited release, mostly in Hasbro Asia regions.

He comes with a buildable parts rack on which to hang/store his extra pieces.

| ==Notes==
| |
| * Like all non-toy robot Kreons in these comics, Grimlock is made from existing Kre-O parts. He uses [[Soundwave (Kre-O)|Soundwave]]'s helmet in black, seemingly with the "door-wing" backpack piece to replicate the [[Grimlock (G1)|original Grimlock's]] wings.
