    I'm still a little confused about the different version of Classics/Henkei Rodimus.

    I'm planning on getting the Protector armor, and would like to know which version matches the color of the armor the best.

    I know one is really bright red and doesn't have flames on the front.

    Anyway, which one should I get?

    Thanks!

    It matches either the Heinki Rodimus's color scheme, or the original classics Rodimus by Hasbro. Not the Rodimus from the Battle in space two pack.

    Protector comes with two sets of wings to match either the Hasbro or Heinki version. Gold for the Heinki, or Orange to match the Hasbro. Personally I like the orange better, because I'm not a big fan of chrome.

    I was actually thinking of selling my protector armor oddly enough. PM me if your interested.

    Your better of going with Hasbro's as even though Hot Rod's spoiler was yellow in the cartoon, orange is a closer match than gold.

    Yes I also like the regular classics Rodimus in the protector armor as opposed to the Henkei Rodimus. I don't even use the spoiler/wing extensions for Protector, as I find them a bit too big for my own personal taste...and I find that Henkei Rodimus is just too damn pretty to bury him in an armor suit.

    Wow two people who made the exact same kind of thread less than a day apart, that's amazing. http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/trans...rd-party-classics-henkei-generations-etc.html

    You do realize its insanely easy to find this out for yourself right? google is a powerful tool, you need only use it.

    Anyway original classics Rodimus is 100% perfect for the protector armor as the armor was specifically made for it. But the henkei is like 99% perfect with only flame decal differences and the spoiler being gold chrome instead of matte orange.

    Yes, but my thread is newer, therefore MUST be more accurate. ;>

    Thanks guys. Decided on Henkei because everyone and google says it's only slightly off and pictures look way better.
