It's from Jada Toys' Toy Fair booth. I'm trying to find better images, My friend found this one in a private Turkish facebook group.

 

It's funny, but that non-transforming Optimus truck doesn't really look all that better than Takara's Armor Knight Optimus, which does transform and probably costs less. This one has maybe a little more chrome, but not much. Armor Knight has most of the silver accents, too. And I can't quite tell, but is this one missing the blue stripe on the grill? Whoops!



To be fair, Armor Knight doesn't have the side mirrors, though.

 

Is this our first Hot Rod anything so far?

 

As a toy, yes

 

Pretty cool!

 

At least someone acknowledged his existence! I guess.

 

Robot mode under the chassis? Reminds me of RPMs... which is nice, because I friggin' loved RPMs.

 

I wish they made Drift too, he would look gorgeous next to that camaro

 

Huh. I'm surprised Hasbro didn't keep this in-house like they did before with the RPMs as mentioned. Still pretty cool though.

 

It's kind of amusing to me that Optimus now has flame tampos, and crazy tripple exhaust pipes.

While Hot Rod doesn't. It's like Prime stole his signature traits. All he needs is a big old spoiler.

 

lol

This is also our second look/CGI render of Hot Rod so far, even if a little blurry. I may be the only person excited about it.

 

I was thinking the exact same thing. Except the vehicle modes look more accurate and the size of the product is bigger too.

 

"I'll show them! I'll show them all I'm still a turbo-revvin young punk! I'm still cool, right Autobots? I'm still hip and up to date!"

 

Kinda surprised that even the alt mode only model of Barricade isn't licensed. I guess Ford said no thank you to the movie designs.

 

Ford doesn't want to be associated with a war movie, let alone a villain where his rival turns into a Camaro.

 

Mid-life crisis is the right of all Autobot leaders!

 

Makes it easy for me to ignore the line.  

 

you´re not  

 

Bumblebee is soooo mine
