    Yep, got my confirmation from Hobbylink Japan for Hot Rodimus today, I think it'll be a while before he gets to the UK though!

    Starscream looks cool. But why Hotrod? Why not just make him Rodimus Prime?

    I love the way these Revoltech things look but I can only afford one line and that line is the New Universe line.

    I wish they would stop trying to push hot rod on us so much, I mean he was a new toy way back when the movie came out but I think Grimlock would have been a better choice.

    I would guess that Hot rod is very proportionate to a regular human, with very little kibble(only the spoiler comes to mind) so that makes him very flexible & easily adaptable to the revoltech "mold"...
    Someone bigger bulkier & with more parts hanging off (like grimmy, or omega supreme, etc...)might be tougher to keep flexible...
    This is just my opinion, no real facts behind it.

    Because Hot Rod is the more popular incarnation of the character?

    Actually the Rodimus figure comes with two different spoilers so you can make him either Hot Rod or Rodimus Prime. Pretty cool in my opinion. Now the next two better be a real Ultra Magnus and Galvatron.

    I'd love to see Shockwave or Galvatron but my dream revoltech figure would be Deaths Head.
    After all: he doesn't transform. So no complaints about non transforming tf's.
    he replaces his hand with guns, rockets ,mace or axe.
    he's fought everyone from Unicron to Dr Who.
    at 5 inches Revoltech scale he fits with the other Rev TF's. He'd
    also fit in with 1/18 scale figs like Starwars, Gi Joe etc as he got shrunk by Dr Who. All in all a badass robot.
