    Hopefully he has the SG symbol.

    Well... 3 molds in 8 years. Meanwhile we're just starting to get updated versions of 1988+ characters.

    Gads I loathe the SG universe, but that evil Rodimus is looking good. I hope he comes with sticker options to make him a Decepticon rather than being saddled with the SG logo.
    Good for those that like it, but the option would be thoughtful.
    Either way, I was going to pass on the Rodimus mold until I saw this.
    Dammit.

    I wonder if the whole Nemesis Rodimus will come into play in either IDW and/or the third part in Macinema's Prime Wars Trilogy?

    they seem to be (or trying) to cover too much ground with this line, from G1 to horror-cons & sea-cons, pretenders, primes, shattered glass. thats a lot of themes crammed into one line. but i think this is good for beast wars fans. i assume that with natural progression bw has to be up next. i am interested in that optimus primal. hopefully theyll unveil that this weekend...

    Agreed. I just wish they had painted Metal Hawk's more accurately.

    I don't know if they ever did him officially, but I always envisioned SG Windcharger as a Transformers version of Magneto. His magnetic powers are on overdrive, and he can just crush anyone in his way.

    But yeah, he really hasn't done much of anything in the past 33 years. They should move on to DIFFERENT nobody characters like Vroom and Doubleheader. :D

    Sorry, I meant wide. It would be hard to do a door and the molding for TM slots inside without basically compromising the chest entirely. You'd be better off getting a new mold.

    We didn't get Twincast from Blaster, or Soundblaster from Soundwave, or Greatshot from Sixshot. But we get black and purple Rodimus Prime with a fu manchu and goatee. :banghead:
