    The limit on Alt Nemesis Prime from HTS was 2 as well; I'm assuming the same for Alt Rodimus, though the rep at HTS didn't know anything concerning Alt Rodimus when I called . . . *gasp*

    I'll definately be trying to get one of these. I'll try the website first and if that doesn't work then the phones. If I still can't get one, I have a friend at work who's actually going to Comic Con. I'll just give her the money and ask her to pick one up if she's able to. And if that all fails, well, then...ebay. One way or another, I will have Rodimus!

    Notice on the scanned CC thing with the 3 toys that Rodimus is the only one that doesnt have a limit in terms of how many will be available. Maybe they will make a ton and have enough for everyone.

    And maybe not...

    I would have rather had it in the light blue w/orange stripes (Classic GT40 colors) as Blurr :) 

    And yes, last year was a limit of 2 per customer, hopefully they orderred a WHOLE LOT more!)

    and PLEASE...I've allready had to empty my PM box on 2 boards (Thankfully the 3rd doesn't allow PM's)...If the limit is 2 I'm buying 1 of each for me and one of each for a close friend...IF I'm able to get them at all (After last year I'm definately not so confident) so any I MAY be able to get are spoken for.

    After seeing him, I'm even less bothered that this is an exclusive. Am I the only one not very impressed by this?

    I'm guessing this was because Hasbro couldn't or wouldn't give those numbers to Comic-Con at the time that they went to press.

    A lot of people are saying they like KP better with the white stripes but I feel the opposite. The white stripes didnt feel like Hot Rod to me, but the flames definitely do, and I think they're applied fairly well, so it's a plus. Besides, the flames arent the worst of his issues; the red thighs and yellow hands are.

    Anyway, I've said it before, but I'm really hoping this gets released in Asia and Australia the way NP did. That way there'll be a flood of them on ebay and everyone who's willing to pay for one will be able to get it. But if it's an exclusive in the truest sense of the word, then I might be worried. But I want one, by whatever means.

    I like the hands... They stand apart from the other designs, true to the characters rebellious nature.
