I'm not really into HoS, but as most of the alts don't do much for me. However, I'd love to have Grimlock as a Mark V tank. If you're gonna give Grimlock a vehicle alt, that's about as good as any. Funny Guidi chose Grimlock and not the more fitting Warpath., but whatever. Too, odd that he chose to make Megatron a field cannon instead of a tank.

I don't recall Grimlock in Hearts of Steel?  I do know Don Figueroa did a Grimlock tank design for a Dreamwave Transformers/G.I. Joe crossover set in the 1930s...

HoS has John Henry in it, so while I don't recall a specific date it's likely set in the 1870s. The sequel, Infestation, is specifically set in 1888. That's still about 30 years before the Mark V, or really any tank.

In addition to the cannon design that Hasbro used, Guidi did another design for Megatron that turned into a revolver.
