I do believe that a SSC rep mentioned that they weren't able to make his four armed look doable in 1/6 scale. So I'm expecting only two with a pair of lit sabers and some hilts for his cloak.

That's too bad if its true. Wonder if they were unable to make functional separating arms; or if there is would be an option for swappable (set of 2 or 4) arms?
Not being able to hold 4 lightsabers is kind of a problem on a figure like Grievous.

Yeah, its kind of Grievous' gimmick. Need the four arms in some fashion.
Maybe this is the hunched, creepy Grievous with cape... and the battle-ready Grievous will be their next attempt.
Only Surfer knows for sure.

As long as Grievous is $225.00 or less I'll bite. Next year will be expensive!
Anyone have an idea how much Boba Fett will be??

I guess we'll have to see. Maybe they'll surprise and wow us with four arms. I was going to say he only did that for a couple minutes in ROTS but people accustomed to the CW now are pretty accustomed to seeing him bust out the extra limbs pretty regularly.
It was just such a great reveal -- plus its very 'droid'.
Be like having an R2 without light-up elements.
4 arms or not, I'm getting Grievous.

All 4 sabers lit up and rotating wrists too. That would just be sick.

Maybe they can just make them swappable forearms. A set with them together and a set with them split apart.
I think someone in the know (maybe Silent Surfer?) mentioned something about the four arms thing being doable in the CG world but not the real world.

The PF has 4 arms... 
i thought in the sneak peak vid from awhile ago (12 days of sideshow was it?) showed that greivous would have 4 arms?
Four arms is key, and I feel like for quality control and ability to hold weapons, it should be trade out arms like Hasbro did on their 3D cartoon Grievous. I fear working arms would mean hands with a loose grip. I'm curious if he'll include the blaster that was exclusive to ROTS Obi-Wan.
I think for the hands they may go the Greedo route and just sculpt the hands with whatever accessory he comes with like the lightsabers
I'm fine with that too. Ultimately, I want him to hold weapons well for cool poses and this was one of the weak points on the Hasbro 12 incher.

Not a figure I really want, but with the making of Grievous and the Battle droids everything should be possible to make in 1:6 form... Can't wait to see what kind of things we can expect!!

Grievous is considered a jedi/sith right? since he can power the lightsabers
No. Grievous is neither Jedi nor Sith.
Han Solo could also power a lightsaber, if you'll recall.

Anyone can turn on a lightsaber, remember Han on Hoth?
Nope. He was just trained a bit by Dooku.
