Lol I thought the same he's as fast as my honda civic. But giving oil gas prices maybe the Future isn't as fast as we expected lol.

Awesome as that would be, Rodimus would be a Dragoon and not a cavalier.

You should wait until Sentinel Prime comes out as he has the lance and sheild. Just needs a noble steed to carry him.

Wait?! This thread is devoted to made up stats on fictional characters and the subsequent toys???

Could there be such a thing as taking fandom too far?

Considering that the entire Transformers mythos is derived of those three components, I'm going to say, "no."

Now those slash-fics - that's taking the fandom too far.

Oh there is such a thing for sure. But this thread isn't it. For an example of what is look no farther than the lulz inducing outcry over FFXIII being developed for the Xbox 360.

Not just the stats, the character biography and function, which defined the characters for a lot of us when said characters were created and we had yet to see them on TV or film.

The website's about Transformers, dude. Baseball stat dorks are welcome to and are known for obsessing about stats and creating fantasy teams. No difference.

Hot Rodimus (C-05)

Function: Cavalier
Alt Mode: Super Car
Abilities: Top Speed - 193 km/h (120 mph); Can temporarily disrupt the electromagnetism of the Decepticon's Micro-circuitry
Personality: A young Autobot warrior who dreams of obtaining an important role and becoming a hero. Because of his youth, his impulsive behaviour often places him in unfortunate circumstances. While he is a bit quick-tempered, his constant vigilance makes him a courageous warrior.
Weapons: Photon Laser with a firing range of 6440 m (4 miles)

Strength: 10
Intelligence: 10
Speed: 9
Endurance: 10
Rank: 10
Courage: 7
Fireblast: 10
Skill: 10
Total: 76

They should've used the revamped Targetmaster Hot Rod stats instead of copying the original G1 Hot Rod. They're much more accurate. I never agreed with pre-Targetmaster Hot Rod's stats - they're far too high.

Skyfire seems to be the speed king - around the world in 60 seconds

Crystal Rodimus (2001) - Autobot Knight of Light - www.tfu.info

His function was "Knight of Light" here. So unless tfu.info is wrong, "Knight" has prededence too.

Yeah, I'm quite amused by how slow Roddy is, and how insanely fast Skyfire is.

Humans, unable to afford gas anymore, discover it is cheaper and easier to steal the Energon from giant alien robots. Suddenly the Autobots realize maybe the Decepticons were right, and should have destroyed the selfish fleshlings

Wut? 4 XBOX!?! DEY RUINS IT! DO NOT WANT!!!!!!

Ha ha, sometimes I just want to remind FF fans that by the definition of "Final", they shouldn't be playing any of the sequels anyways!

Actually, I'm not fond of turn based RPGs, but I have a lot of respect and appreciation for the series. But fanboys do often need to be slapped. We're just lucky that never happens with Transformers fans....
