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.

- This set was only available on June 28 as part of a special promotion at ToysЯUs, given away free from noon to 2pm (roughly) as part of an in-store building event that coincided with the opening weekend of Age of Extinction and the final day of a buy-one-get-one-half-off sale on all Transformers product.

Unlike the previous Custom Kreons, he no longer features a chromed helmet, and comes with an extra clear-plastic helmet, torso, legs, and his arms, plus a two-sided Axe, and a chromed sword. This set marks the first single release of the Robots in Disguise Grimlock character in Kre-O outside of a (and before having his own) building set.

- Like his wavemates, he is available in selected Asian countries since December 2014.
Notes
- Like all non-toy robot Kreons in these comics, Grimlock is made from existing Kre-O parts. He uses Soundwave's helmet in black, seemingly with the "door-wing" backpack piece to replicate the original Grimlock's wings.
