So excited for this figure! For all the hate the character gets, he sure is popular! I’m a Hotrod/Rodimus Prime fan forever!
This thread still has some solid arguments for this new Kingdom Rodimus Prime figure. He's super accurate in both modes, and has been updated much, much more aesthetically and functionally compared to his previous toys, that in itself is a miracle. . Just like Hot Rod 86 Studio Series, this is the 30 year second coming of the most superior version of Rodimus Prime in all his plastic glory. Haters to the left, please. Lol.
Try taking a break. It seems like you’re pretty stressed, even if it’s over a toy. Just relax. We’re not here to get you or hate you cuz you’re mad about rodimus. Just relax.
I’m hoping that this and Galavatron are as good as was rumored and can remedy what I always considered to be an injustice since Classics started in 2006. When we got those fantastic, solid, durable Voyager Prime and Megatron updates, I assumed Hasbro would do the same thing at the same scale with the same level of quality with Rodimus Prime (not Hot Rod) and Galvatron within 1-2 years. That never happened. We’ve gotten figures of one or the other since then but never what I was expecting back in ‘06 when I was blown away by Voyager Prime and Megatron. I always considered it a gap in my collection, even though I have good to great MP/3p representations of both. I’ve been waiting 15 years for this to happen. So these two releases are both among my most anticipated and I’m placing a lot of hope on both of them. Based on what they’ve done in the WFC trilogy, where almost every figure is good to great, I don’t have too much doubt that Hasbro will deliver the goods here.
Now my Friend I am 35. And my Huge Ass Collection is probably bigger than yours will ever be. Fact. Up until now, I could not find a good looking Rodimus. This here, even small Picture, is the first one that would interest me. But not with a Price above 100$. 120$ Yes, but then with an super cool Combining Gimmick, and not a total useless Weapon Storage / Turret Cannon. It is not wrong to have high expectations.
Ah. I misunderstood your point in your original post, then. Apologies. Actually, I agree with your last point, and I think your breakdown of Star Wars and G1 is actually quite spot on.
Sir, I’m certain I know nothing compared to you as I am a measly 15 year old as compared to your 35 years of greatness. But I must ask - why do you have a collection of huge ass, and why are you bragging about it in a transformers forum? But in all seriousness, your original post was so hyperbolic it sounded like something a 10 year old would type. This second post of yours is a lot more informative as to your gripes with the figure. And hey, they’re fair issues. You might want to wait until March 10th before making your final decision, as that’s when the actual reveal is, but hey, you do what you want. Also, WingSaber used blue text, meaning he was joking btw. Oh, and if you really want to get your point across, lay off of the childish collection size comparing. It’s embarrassing, and quite frankly behavior I would expect from a 10 year old.
For the millionth time. This won't cost $120. That's the Japanese price. (I say this, even as a Canadian who absolutely will have to pay $120 for this. You lucky Americans and your $80 Commanders)
No apologies needed, homie! Good debatable points that aren't trying to kill someone else's point-of-view; all for it!
I mean you can even see the ridge where it slides Yeah, but a few pages back we already found out this is a family friendly forum, so we will never find out unfortunately. People measure the highest point, which is the spoiler tips, not the head.
