Grimlock is the strongest member of the Dinobots and has a reputation for being cold, merciless, and contemptuous towards those he considers inferior, including humans and even Autobot leader Optimus Prime. Despite this, Grimlock is a brave warrior who commands respect from all who witness his actions, both friends and enemies. One of his unique characteristics is a speech impediment that causes him to shorten sentences and frequently refer to himself as "Me Grimlock" instead of "I".
