Bring on MP Galvatron!
Some hints of Hot Rod hidden in there from TFW:
And another person mentioned the transparent circles on the sides of his head could flip down a visor... seems plausible given the slight gap between head and helmet!Quote:
Panels on his back being large enough to cover a much larger area than what the cab needs
Open area between face and helmet, hinge on back of helmet at base of head.
Wheels visible on the backs of his legs, but all four of the trailer's wheels remaining on the trailer.
One of Hot Rod's guns is visible inside the larger rifle, as what appears to be a seperate piece.
Robot mode hood is not the same as the vehicle hood.
there's some suspicious bits hiding inside the panels on the back. round, like boosters or something? are those on any Hot Rod or Rodimus Prime character models?
Pretty good so far.
Oh god. It just hit me. that panel on the very back of the robot mode has the exact details and shape of Hot Rod's car mode's back. I'm looking at my G1 Hot Rod, and I see the same cut rectangle detailing on his roof near the spoiler, exactly where it is on the bot mode of the MP figure, near the spoiler. He's even got the exact same vent detailing under the spoiler as the G1 Hot Rod! The panel that that panel is on hinges up to fill out the rest of the car mode's roof, and then those booster-ish parts fold out to become the back of the car. That's exactly how it works. This has a hot rod mode.

That thing on the right looks to be an accessories tray of some sort with a very matrix-shaped object on it!
Was reading at some chinese's forum and someone who was there mentioned the size of Rodimus is as big as Masterpiece Optimus!
Not really interested in this so it will be a pass for me. There are other G1 characters that I would like to see given the MP treatment e.g. Cyclonus, Galvatron, Arcee. OK, so the last one is reaching a bit, but I'd sooooo buy it.
The photo below shows this to be true - there is a heap of extra panelling that Rodimus doesn't need in vehicle mode. This would be used for the Hot Rod mode.Quote:

Definitely a 2-in-1 MP toy, which would be one way of making it more sellable (for a toy that won't see a redeco, like Megatron).

This bit of information seriously raises my hopes for the engineering of this figure. Any news on height?Quote:

to fly out of Unicron's butt?Quote:

I'm sure they will be able to think of something, even if it's as strange as a lucky draw or Wildrider.
Well there'll be a black repaint for sure... which I'll buy :o
All this extra detail is great news, Primus bless those Japanese designers :D
