>>6811893As much as I love the MP mold, LG Hot Rod is so much more fun, to me, as a non-specific version of the character, whereas the MP is very clearly the ugly AKOM model with a pretty crummy looking Targetmaster repaint. Plus the Headmaster functionality makes him a lot more fun to play with, especially with the little Daniel figure that came with MP Magnus.

>sour grapes from people who pretend MP-09 is better>complaints about chrome flaking>complaints that it's only Hot Rod and not Rodimus Prime>accuracy-fags who hate the chest and wide shouldersWhich is an utter shame because it truly is one of the best MP molds, especially at the time. Transformation is fun and not a headache, accessories are cool without being too esoteric, and his posability is excellent. Good ankles, ab crunch, waist swivel, great shoulders, double-jointed knees and elbows... it really goes to show that no matter how technically good a Transformer is, it still has to make it by the autism barrier, otherwise people will hate it.
