Oh Hell Yeah!!!
That, as per normal, looks like it is going to be quite the hit with FansProject customers - He looks incredibly bulky too, making the character more likeable for me, with great articulation and multiple facets to the kit.
Now... To find the money for this sucker!

Very impressive but I wonder if they are intentionally leaving the fingers white or that is just unique to this pre-release sample?

Oh yeah. this looks awesome. But is there an official release date?

The pics look pretty awesome, glad I have him pre-ordered already. Those who have not done so should do so now- wow as I type, the Aussie dollar is over $1 USD (mid-market).
Fansproject's releases have always delivered in awesomeness, and judging from the pics, protector looks to continue that trend. To me this is an awesome reimagining in the vein of what classics should do for characters. As a classics rodimus prime, it properly enhances the original classics mold from mediocre to excellent.
On RK it says December 2010- I think a rep said it would arrive in time for christmas- but the specific date has not yet been announced.Originally Posted by Tallestblue

I thought it looked better in the greys and don't regret not ordering this. Nice idea and all but the result doesn't grab me.
Do you think the front of the car mode is all scuffed up as result of putting on and off the add-on kit to the robot's chest?

Classics Rodimus unfortunately has an issue in which the paint job is very easy to scratch off and that's just by regular handling or playing. That is why I bought Reprolabels for mine. While transforming it part of the paint job rubbed off and I didn't even notice it until I saw it again the next day.
I don't think the following releases of the mold have this issue.

Hmm.. I did not consider this aspect, since I've only transformed him once or twice since I got one, although it is a valid concern.
Which releases are you referring to? Henkei rodimus? Although I haven't held one in my hand, aren't the reds and (therefore assuming) the paints are the same?

he's talking about the hasbro one and the reds are different shades. also the paint isnt the red mold, its the flames.

It only applies to the orginal Classics release. Henkei is fine and I suspect the other releases to be fine too when it comes to the deco wiping off.
I am referring to the 'flame' deco on the original classics figure.

Wow, very nice.
I'm sure this will hit HK first and I can just grab it off the 1001 toy shops here, all of which should stock it.
Since I sold my Classics Rodimus, I gotta buy another Rodimus in prep for this. I'm not sure whether I should buy the Henkei one or the one that came in the three pack with Cyclonus and Galvatron.
CHUG experts, what do you think?
