Guess TakaraTomy couldn't be bothered with making a more feminine face/head for BT Arcee.

I just saw the latest Henkai manga/mini-comic and every page caused my jaw to hang open - Why,why,WHY THE HELL is HOTROD depicted as being in the same league as frigging Megatron,Starscream, and Astrotrain?

I know the comic is meant to sell toys, but...jeez! This is yet one more reason why Japan shouldn't be allowed to write TF fiction.

Any one of the cassettes could kick Hot Rod's ass and make him cry even more over how he isn't Optimus. Hot Rod(imus) is not the super unbeatable shonen character who never gives up and always wins because he has a warrior's heart and has those he wants to protect.

Um since when is he not? He's always been very powerful. Have you ever read his tech specs? The Movie depicted him as very powerful too.

All of his stats are 10's except for his Courage (a 7) and his Speed (a 9). He rates better overall than Megatron.

I saw the one where Megatron easily got Hot Rod in a headlock, and held him hostage.

Seriously, he was pretty useless, untill the Matrix finally got exaspirated, and said "Here kid, have an upgrade, and stop embarassing us."

You obviously don't remember him taking on the whole ship full of Decepticons by himself. Taking down loads of Sharkticons, and then holding his own with Galvatron himself (who is much more powerful version of Megatron). So he did all that before the Matrix.

Definitely not the same movie I saw. The Matrix did lend a hand at the end, but after Hot Rod had spent the whole movie proving himself, with only one actual mistake.
