>>10521634I mean it is better than people give it credit for, I bought it too at the time and it was a pretty alright fun combiner. Plastic's a noticeably cheaper feel compared to WFC onwards though when it comes to Hotrod himself, and it still doesn't cover what I want from post WFC generations, which is modulator compatibility. Kingdom was closer, but he looks way too old to pass as Hotrod and I don't like the face for Rodimus either, lol. I still bought him though, then did a real great job "fixing" said face. Still sucks no 3rd parties bothered to make a new one.
>>10520977Definitely! Attributing it to a different iteration of the character would justify what's essentially a redo of the original design. That or seeing them touch on other iterations of Rodimus like Energon or Alternators would be cool.
