I'd really like to see what this new Rodimus would look like in the FP armor. Really just pictures in Winny mode is all I'm looking for.
Neat! Yeah, glad I preordered this, it's a mediocre mold but a very thoughtful retool that greatly enhances his overall compatibility.
Good thing I just picked these up off of ebay. Also I noticed that before the news hit that these may be limited quantity, most import sites still had them in stock. Over the course of the last few days, hlj, amiami, & robotkingdom, started selling out. Guess people took the news seriously, and started snatching these up.
Either that or they didn't get as many as they thought they would. I don't, but if I had to guess I would say middle of this week to early next week. Randy
sweet!!! i sure hope its this week, i want that tank megs and wipeout! have you seen windcharger up close? any significant differences from the american version?
He can chest-mount most of the newer minicons. And: Boom. I'm gonna confirm this tonight, and maybe post some pics of the new arm mold. Nice catch, Masabon - I didn't even notice this on mine! 確かに多いですね。私はただTFCCに入ってったり、Botconに行ってったりして自然にあつまっちゃった。Hotrod型がそんなに好きなわけがないのに。。。タカラトミの方がその型が好きかも;)
まぁぁ、多分手を変化するより安かったね。^_^(笑) このぐらいでも変化してくれて本当にタカラトミに感謝してるよ。Hasbroだったら何も変わらずに発売する方が普通です。 ちなみに、日本人のトランスフォーマーのファンに話すのは本当に喜びますよ。このごろ日本に住んでいてもトランスフォーマーのファンは全然会ってないし、トランスフォーマーはあまり店で見つけられないし、何か寂しいです!
I stand pleasantly corrected! That's actually quite awesome. I don't think you can really blame me for not knowing about that. Or caring about chest mounting the Minicons... that's only a feature I care about on the PCC because they're combiner torsos.
thats pretty sweet that rodimus can arm mount the minicons, similar to cyclonus. But where can I get some? will I have to buy PCC commanders just for the minicons? I noticed BBTS is selling some of the takara ones, but for 40 bucks a pop! screw that.
Still very tempted by Wipe-out. Rodimus looks bad IMO. All maroon would be good, but these two shades of red make the altmode look bad. Robot is a lot better, but still no. Also, nice that they remolded the engine block to hold a target-/micromaster, but...Rodimus Prime never was a targetmaster and didn't have an engineblock on his chest/hood. If they had removed it, I might be tempted. But honestly, I think it's time for a new Rodimus Prime mold.
SO minicon/Targetmaster ports is no problem on the billionth redeco of Hot Rod/Rodimus, but Stepper, as an expensive exclusive, doesn't get one even though it actually comes with a Targetmaster? WTF, Takara?
Well, I cancelled my preorder for Rodimus the other day, but reordered it again thinking ill just keep it in bot mode. Got an email this morning from bbts, its in stock and processing.
