    You want Rodimus or Carry downscaled? If you are talking pricepoint Commander etc, that's a different issue. If you mean Rodimus current already release scale, Hb/Takara got him right.

    Sometimes, smaller scale limits the features of the product (cough cough ........THS02)

    Ah, right... Black Zarak and Shattered Jetfire. My mind was leaning towards new tools somehow for the double commander thing, so I didn't consider repainting old moulds in different colour schemes. I suppose that'd be an easier way to meet the double Commander quota.

    Motormaster is going to be a thing? Cool. I remember some other fans here wanting Tidal Wave as well (don't pay attention to leaks, so I'm far out of the loop in that regard).

    New molds would be nice for sure, and we might still get a 2nd new mold, just saying that if you do include the repaints then we are meeting the 2 commanders thing :)

    He's MP-10 height, about 10". So taller than Leader by a little bit.

    He might be getting a re-release in the near-ish future.

    ShowZ at least has a provisional pre-order page open, and it's been bandied about that most of DX9's product will be seeing a new release cycle within the next couple of years (essentially, the company is defunct now in terms of new releases, but there's a small skeleton crew of folk still onboard just to squeeze new money out of stuff they've already done).

    This is the only review that I saw which mentions these wheels. The wheels at the front of the trailer (on his copy at least) don't touch the ground when the cab is combined with the trailer (Just go to around 13:50 of the video).

    Yeah, I don't think it's worth 80 bucks. MAYBE 60 bucks. Suffers from Gimmick Filled Trailer Raised The Price syndrome like MP Prime 3.0

    Your getting a 200$ figure for 90$
    Like/comprehend it or not… that is the facts of the matter.
    At some point he will likely get released enough people will find him at Bargain stores… maybe.

    Yes, Give Us that in Voyager size. His Truck mode can go well with my Matchbox collection.

    YUP! Hasbro’s official release date for Galvatron is 9/1. It’s 2.5 months early! I’m guessing Rodimus will appear in July. Rhinox has sorta appeared too? It’s trickling in but arriving sooner then scheduled! Hurrah!
