Grimlock (G1) or just known as Grimlock, is a character from the Generation 1 Transformers. Grimlock is one of the most memorable Autobots in the Transformers franchise, even during his early years in the Generation 1 features. Some Autobots wonder why Grimlock is on their side. He prefers brute strength over wisdom and compassion. Add that with the fact that he doesn't really get along very well with other Autobots. In problems, Grimlock's usual response is either ripping it to pieces, or slicing it with his Energo-Sword, or even outright eat it. Though he doesn't really mind about humans. Couple all of those with his dislike of Optimus Prime, and you'll get Grimlock. However, Grimlock, behind his so-called-of-a-more-Decepticon-like-nature, actually hates something more than weakness, which is those who abuse their strength. Although sometimes, Grimlock isn't really in-nature with Optimus Prime, he holds respect for the Prime himself.

Grimlock is widely famous for leading the Autobot sub-group named Dinobots, a small group consisting of Autobots who can transform to Dinosaurs, and very powerful. Grimlock himself is already strong and durable, even arguably, as strong, or second to Optimus Prime or Megatron. Grimlock's speech style, however, is somehow "limited" and resembles a caveman. However, most doesn't really see that behind that vocabulary, lies strategic smarts. Grimlock is skilled in the ways of fighting, and doesn't really go to a fight without anything. In battle, Grimlock brings his iconic Energo-Sword, which can cut through a 2-foot thick concrete wall with one sweep, and a double barreled rocket launcher, which essentially looks like a normal blaster with two barrels. And of course, he's the leader of the Dinobots, and he lifts up to his name with his alternate form which suits his leader type, a T-Rex. In his T-Rex form, Grimlock possesses a degree of invulnernability and the ability to breathe fire, as well as making mini-quakes by stomping his feet to the ground, according to how hard it is. And of course, in his alternate form, he possesses powerful jaws which can really give a big damage to nearly anything. Many may not expect that Grimlock is a formidable opponent through his mind, but surely, Grimlock can prove his skills with ease and show people that he's not as dumb as he looks like, or as he sounds like.
