    some times i look at him and i think this guy needs his old gun from g1. the bow is neat but i think he would look better with a gun. i wish there was a gun that can plug up that open space just like the classics one.

    I don't. Mainly because he didn't have a gun in the show.

    I prefer the bow, it makes him stand out more.

    Uh..no.

    Animated Autobots don't use guns brah, except for leftover war heroes like Magnus and Omega.

    No, IMO the design animated rodimus doesn't look like he could handle a gun.

    I would have liked his bow to have been a Targetmaster/Minicon. His Classics weapon looks like a tube with a pistol grip.. If he did have a weapon, I would like it to be more like his G1 weapon. Or some kind of sub machine gun looking weapon to match his speed and stature. Where as the crystal/SoC totally needs some kind of inspiring sword.. Man, I could keep going.

    The bow makes him unique. Besides, he didn't have one in the show.

    If you want to give him a gun, use Perceptors Red rifle gun. Perfect fit on Rodys hand and also a nice match color for the current colors on the figure. I felt the same way that he needed a gun. The bow looks great but with an extra weapon on the other hand gives it a much better look (IMO). Try it and see if you like it..

    So...how is he supposed to be able to draw the bow when he's wielding another weapon in his other hand?

    I was thinking of modding the forearm pipes to rotate forward (kinda like Animated Jazz)...

    There are a few blocks to shave down and the screw hole can act as a swivle point...

    If that dosnt work, I'll use the bow...

    Deffinately not.

    He has a bow, which is cooler, and looks more dynamic. Plus it's design implies skill, strength and nobility, which is great for this Rodimus.
