    I like this guy specifically because his Prime robot mode is so beefy. I always felt G1 Rodimus didn't have enough visual distinction from Hot Rod, and this guy solves that.

    As a kids toy. I think it’s pretty cool and if I was 10 again. I’d be over the moon if I got this. I think people sometimes forget who exactly these toys are actually for and have way too high expectations.
    Great review Emgo and the ending was epic!

    • @aldolibreri791
      @aldolibreri791 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      mrwickedweasel If it weren’t for Hot Rod’s legs being exposed while he’s Rodimus, I would love this guy. If they made something that covered them up and locked them in place, this would be an amazing figure. And for $50, we should expect some decent engineering that lets the figure hold a pose without the arms flailing around.
      I get it, they’re aimed for kids, and this is an amazing kids toy. But Hasbro also knows that collectors, and lots of them, buy these too. And they like it when they can be posed. I’m not saying make every figure masterpiece quality, but something like Titans return Sixshot shouldn’t be too hard to ask for.

    • @aldolibreri791
      @aldolibreri791 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      A guy on EBay is selling clips that cover up the shoulder gaps and keep the Hot Rod legs in place for Rodimus Mode. Makes the figure so much better and turns it into a must have imo.

    • @nitemite
      @nitemite 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Id have to disagree with you on that, I think G1 Rodinmus looks better. Plus I think most of these big remakes are made for the nostalgia 35 year olds. With all the amazing remakes they have already made, this one falls flat. The average kid is going to get the $5 to $10 transformer at Walmart.

    I think this is one of the most successful integrations of both Hot Rod and Rodimus into one figure in both vehicle and robot modes. Yeah it's partsforming but I'll take it over some of the other options where he looks the same in robot mode but you just extend his limbs a bit and swap out his face.

    Personally, I like the evolution figures. It adds more playability for the children (duh, it’s a toy), and for me, it’s kind of satisfying to see how it all comes together. I have a feeling they’re going to release a Megatron for this line, and I’m curious to see how it would turn out. Gun to tank, maybe?

    Yes! Thank you for the video. Bought myself this piece last year ago and decided to open the box today for the first time. I wanted to transform the figure into a vehicle but the instructions are far more worst than an average instruction when you buying a product from IKEA.

    I know I'm late to comment on a video like this, but the two toned red on Rodimus is a result of Hasbro trying to make Hot Rod the bright red that his original 80s toy was and trying to make the trailer part of him like the Rodimus Prime figure in the 80s. The red on the original Hot Rod and the red on the original Rodimus Prime are two different reds, take a closer look of the two and you'll see what I'm talking about.

The best part about this figure are the two pegs on top of the camper in vehicle mode making this an excellent display stand for Studio Series "86 Hotrod.

    Normally people complain that a transformer is over engineered. This one is quite under-engineered.

But apart from that, I like the concept of the transformation.

    Hot Rod is ever so slightly off but still far better than the last couple Classics/Generations style Hotrods we've had. The vehicle modes look great.

    I like this toy because you can have the original Hot Rod and then have him become Rodimus, also like the Optimus toy it doesn't just have the trailer just sitting around. Although I would have designed it so Rodimus' back could have had a pair of Cell's wings instead of the box, still would look weird though, but better than the box.
    If they could make an RID Scourge version like this than all four of my favourite trailer characters will be completed.

    I must be the only person who likes Rodimus Prime. Then again, it was the first G1 Leader I had (Optimus was hard to find when I was first into Transformers as a 3-4 year old in 1986-1987). I want the Masterpiece Takara one, or Carry, but so much money. This one makes a nice Office Shelf Toy with my old G1 one. Right next to my Classics Hot Rod.

    Holy partsforming, Batman! That aside, I actually like the look of big Rodimus (so long as you don't look at him from an angle). I generally don't like robot modes for Rods, so this was a pleasant surprise. Vehicle-wise, I prefer Titans Return's Rod to this one - the lines on PotP Rod's car mode are nice, but there's a big gap where the top half of the doors should be.
    This line doesn't grab me the way that CW did, and it doesn't have enough standouts to pry money out of my grudging wallet the way TR did. I'll pick up a couple Deluxes and Legends, probably most of the Prime Masters because I'm a loser, and maybe Optimus Primal because I've never had a Beast Wars figure (I really hope he doesn't suck), but for the most part I'm abstaining from PotP.

    It may look weird and chunky but this is my favorite Rodimus Prime, not only you get Hot Rod but as Rodimus it actually looks like he evolved with the power of the Matrix instead of getting a bit taller and an older face, in the cartoon due to the scale issue most of the time he looked like he was still Hot Rod.

    I love your videos. Your video on Masterpiece Hot Rod got me to order one of my own. He's currently standing next to my monitor.

    I just got Power of the Primes Rodimus Prime in the mail from eBay yesterday. He's awesome!

    Titans Return is my personal fave version. Especially with Chaos On Velocitron Rodimus Prime headmaster.

    Dang. I had such high hopes for this Rodimus. Before I was gonna pass on the Optimus in this wave, but now, if I get a Rodimus from this series, it'll probably be Rodimus Unicronus...

    I'm pleasantly surprised at how a lot of Transformers figures in the Titans Return and Power Of The Primes series look very similar to their 1980's generation 1 counterparts.

    I'm gonna get it, because in my opinion, is the best NON MASTERPIECE OFFICIAL FIGURE (sorry for Mayus, but is to make it appear more clear) of Rodimus Prime. Hot rod could be debatable, but Rodimus Prime? Nah

    Everytime I see a new Rodimus that you review, I am terrified for you, considering you need to delicately play with the first MP Rodimus. LOL

    "Rodimus can be his own Matrix." Well, Hot Rod was always full of himself.

    As someone who hates Hotrod/Rodimus with a burning passion i have to admit that Hotrod on his own is not that bad, and that ending was just awesome. Consider it as a late birthday gift for me. 👍😂

  • @mechamanblade8465
    @mechamanblade8465 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I will probably pick up Rodimus Prime since I'm not a fan of the upcoming Rodimus Unicronus repaint. The alt modes are nice, the stand alone Hot Rod figure looks good as it is, and the combined Rodimus Prime looks nice from the front. I think it's a nice job for the gimmick, but I think the Classics Rodimus and Fansprojects add-on achieved this better.
