    There's no pre-order available for it yet, so it'll probably be awhile.

    Boost or Hatch would make more sense for a Knight rider repaint/resculpt

    If Hoodlums mold was upsized, would anyone accept this as a Rodimus Prime upgrade or would you prefer a new mold altogether?

    New mold !!

    To me, just upsizing it and adding a trailer would be something you'd find in the chug line !! Not the MP line.

    Is that unusual? Didn't they have a set for Downbeat before he was available too?

    Yea but it wasn't that far apart between the downbeat reprolabels and the actual toy going on sale

    There isn't even an estimate for hoodlum's release date yet :confused:

    I've been saying this for awhile now. Give me a new Rodimus Prime mold with a darker paint scheme and awesome head/face sculpt and I'll be pleased as punch.

    Stranger things have happened but there aren't even preorders up for this guy yet, seems impossible that his release would be imminent without that step.

    I haven't had much free time lately between Mardi Gras and midterms but I decided to take a shot at a Psychoshi-style digibash of Hoodlum as Rod Kimble from the movie Hot Rod just for shigs. I thought about also doing one of Rod's initial jumpsuit from the movie but felt that this suited the figure better. If I have some time this weekend I may give that a shot too. Enjoy!

    I don't remember this ever going up for preorder? How did I miss that? I feel like the only one who didn't already buy Takara or the ko

    They haven't gone up for PO's yet. They are just waiting for confirmation from Fans Toys and their suppliers. TCP also has a listing for Trans-Fors MM, but have not put him up for PO yet either.
