    The cannon mode of Shockwave's is pretty inspired really!

    Trying not to want that MTMTE-esque Rodimus for my IDW display, but these pics are making it so hard...

    Man, if they has just remolded the head and the spoilers in the back somehow, that Rodimus would be an instant purchase for me -

    Looking for hints of future figures in the story images..I see Astrotrain...Fall of Cybertron Grimlock...Combaticons...Soundwave...Beast Hunters Magnus.

    I could see that Magnus being released in the Cloud line.

    Rodimus looks nice enough, but I can't help but feel disappointed that they just repainted Springer..

    At least with Sandstorm they remolded him a bit..
    but Rodimus? same modes as Springer, just with Rodimus colors.

    Well to be fair, all of these cloud guys so far are pretty much straight up repaints. At most it seems that they only thing that will happen is that they might get extra accessories like Starscream's null rays.

    Hot Rodimus looks damn good. Him and Starscream have so far are the only ones that have really tempted me. HOWEVER, repaint is a repaint, and that's just way too much for these guys.

    Now if Hasbro were to release these two over here in a two-pack.........................

    Rodimus looks great in bot mode. Alt mode not so much. Shockwave is a huge pass.

    Look! It's Springer cosplaying as Rodimus and Whirl as an emo.

    Don't give a shit. Getting Roddy, forgetting Whirlwave ever existed.

    Sigh....just furthers my realization. Any transformer worth owning cost near $100 or more.

    This is pretty much what I'm thinking. I'm surprised how good Rodimus looks - I really wasn't too sure how well it was going to turn out, but, well, here it is.

    I'm disappointed it's a Cloud release and not a mainline, because I really don't want to spend nearly $100 on it, and I really want a new Rodimus figure. I'd like a new mold, but if Hasbro decides to give this to us, I guess I'm okay with that.

    Though, this makes Cloud Megatron look pretty great, and Decepticon Whirl like it has a reason to exist.

    Rodimus looks good and is tempting but the price tag kills it for me.

    I have a feeling that the chances of it happening are slim, but I really hope that one of next year's Voyager class figures is a Hasbro version of Cloud Rodimus. Even better, release him in a two-pack with a Skywarp repaint of the Blitzwing/Doubledealer mold w/Cloud Starscream's null-ray cannons.
